Why No Civility Is Possible Today
When spelled out, what we have today in this country is an unbridgeable disagreement about what the family is.Misunderstand the family and all its coherent complexities, what follows is that nothing else will go right. We have no common judgment about the transcendent meaning of our lives. One division maintains, with no real proof, that man has no given nature. Logically and politically, step by step, consequences, that are not accidental, follow. We legalize contraception, then, when that does not work, abortion, euthanasia, fetal experimentation, homosexual marriages and adoptions. We can even decide if we are male or female. A “family” is configured as we wish it to be. These practices have all become “rights” under positive law. They are systematically enforced. No criticism of them is allowed, no matter how scientifically or reasonably based it may be. - Crisis Magazine

And yet polygamy is still outlawed. Why?

Our very own Ghostboy will attest civility is not getting shot center unalive.
"Sunday: A day given over by Americans to wishing that they themselves were dead and in Heaven, and that their neighbors were dead and in Hell." - H.L.Mencken
That is breeding uncivility*, that type of desperate nihilism of course given his (Mencken's) age understandable given his era's jerks jerking their jerkhood into the compulsory phase.
*Mencken like all and all to be nihilistic as he assumes him in America means idiots think America is like some exceptional nation or something troatlly Mencken like that. These Proggie self-centered idiots absolutely believe us dumb rubes consider Sunday something created not by anything but our rube ignorance.
Which means traitors are sabotaging our obvious victory morally, militarily, and most especially, see the top item of this three item list, monetarily, to their great detriment.
Mr. T. and I both pity these fools. Who in Hell is worth the cost of admission?

Life is too easy. No matter your daily horror story, you have it far better than ever before in the long run.
When things get tough, really tough, the little irritants of life become insignificant as the bigger ones, putting food and drink in mouth for example, occupies most of your attention.
When that time comes for the majority a reset will occur. It will no come for all of us at once, but rather individually. Your priorities will be readjusted and you'll leave the herdism behind as you seek survival on your own. Only you can know when this time is here.
Unless something cataclysmic occurs first. At that point the mad scramble for resources will occur with millions left wanting, desperate. Then the culling will occur, starting in the places where the masses congregate. Less so in the hinters. If your immediate family resides within 100 feet of anyone else you are in that grouping. Got tape measure? Your resources become theirs and vice versa.
You stare to the heavens hoping for redemption of any type but it was the heavens that put you here, and your (subliminal) trust (faith) in them to do what's right in spite of all the evidence indicating otherwise. They don't, and never have, cared about you. You were simply another part of the vehicle to their ascension to the heavens. A willing, easily led, complacent stepping stone. You greased their skids. Even if you withheld your support you offered it by being in that 100' radius. Your presence was their confirmation, your approval.
When the curtain of concealment is dropped you will finally know that which you should have seen all along.
The constitution undermines itself in it's first 3 words, "WE the people...".
Nobody gets to speak for me.
It's not the people, it's the system that is wrong but nobody has the nutz to grasp that notion.
