I'm very torn, but I think I'm ultimately optimistic and I try very hard to be. With peak Marxism here (or approaching soon), I find it very easy to get depressed when I look around. I'm guessing you probably feel the same, based on what you're writing.

I do believe the pendulum is going to swing simply due to the fact that all bubbles eventually burst! You can only deny economic reality through forcible government interventions for so long. Marxism is a bubble in debauchery, stupidity and complete denial of reality.

As you said, we must build the platforms to side step Marxist totalitarianism. I totally agree! The faster we get these things and the more plentiful the options, hopefully we can lessen the pain when things get really ugly.

I think the truth is out of the bag (via mostly free speech Internet) and the Cryptos are out of the bag as well. The thing that makes me very positive is the growth in conservatism, libertarianism, entrepreneurship and cryptos.

Now can our side grow quick enough and shut these bastards down before they completely fucking destroy the West through immigration and socialism!
