How are you feeling these days?
We sure do live in interesting times
I read a book maybe 20 years ago called the 4th Turning. This kind of feels like it and it is when the book said it was going to be.
What did it predict?

Yeah, I want to know to. Don’t leave us hanging.
It like that one book I read that predicted
The premise of the book is that US history goes through more or less periodic phases and there are common generational changes. The book I think predicted the start of the 4th turning about now. Turnings generally start with weakening goverments and some crisis and often often wars. This is all from memory… Someone else may know more.
Van Neistat just did a short on the 4th turning. Good read.
