The American Descent into Madness


Victor Davis Hanson recently published an article on the American Greatness website.  He begins with this statement: "Nations have often gone mad in a matter of months."  He continues with this:

"In the last six months, we have seen absurdities never quite witnessed in modern America. Madness, not politics, defines it. There are three characteristics of all these upheavals. One, the events are unsustainable. They will either cease or they will destroy the nation, at least as we know it. Two, the law has largely been rendered meaningless. Three, left-wing political agendas justify any means necessary to achieve them."

 This article provides many astute insights.  The following is an insight that I had not recognized on my own:

"Yet universities now have both hands around their golden goose’s neck and are determined to strangle it...The new woke admission policy ironically is targeting the liberal suburban professional family, the Left’s constituency, whose lives are so fixated on whether children graduate from Yale, Princeton, Harvard, Stanford, or like campuses."

 I urge you to read the entire article at the following link:
