Hedges mentioned that when capitalism is in doubt, the panacea "answer" that often turns into a wedge-issue is whether to replace the previous socioeconomic order with more fascism or more socialism. Anomie and angst get channeled into convulsions leading towards yet another civil war along these lines; dividing-and-conquering on the similar issues and concerns as almost a century prior. Paraphrasing what someone once said: history is doomed to repeat itself about every 90 years. I feel like we're repeating the late 1920's, to a degree, with growing nationalism and hate directed at minorities.. which inevitably leads to World War if not civil war. |
