The liberals want to destroy civilization and replace it with nothing. Seeing the results in western europe will be entertaining

Wrong.

Its a vicious cycle. Governments are set up with inequality on purpose to GAME THE SYSTEM. This has been done for thousands of years. They slowly undo the inequality piece-by-piece over the course of hundreds of years in order to win the support of the people and to be called "great". Then when society becomes TOO equal, they just have a revolution and set up a NEW system with lots of inequality and start the process all over again. You are a FOOL. You cannot see the infinite cycle.

Look at the Roman Republic. With each successive leader, they kept handing out bigger benefits to the poor and needy until there was no more to give. Then they just handed all power to caesar and created vast new inequality to restart the cycle. Benefits were stripped and went back to square one. Then with each successive caesar, they handed out new benefits to the poor. By the end of the Roman Empire, there were massive warehouses handing out free bread, wine, cheese to the people and free housing was all over the place. With nothing else to give, they stopped defending the empire and let Odoacer in the destroy everything and start from square one with fresh inequalities.

Its like how a video game designer will overtune everything at the start on purpose. Everything will be too hard. Then with each patch, they nerf everything to make it easier. They do that because making things too hard and then slowly giving benefits to the players keeps players happy. And then when it goes too far and they give everything away, they just abandon the game. Its the exact same principle. You are a fool because you think you see progress when its not there. You are being manipulated.

History actually shows revolutions happen when the relative inequality becomes too great, not the opposite.

Your view is far too simplistic to make any meaningful predictions.

Wrong. What happens is there is ALWAYS pressure for MORE equality from the lower classes. its ALWAYS there. So they set up government with plenty of inequality at the start, in order to hand out benefits a little bit at a time to keep the public satisfied. The problem comes when the benefits and freebies are too big and they cant really extend it any more. Then the demands for more from the masses cannot be sated so they set up a revolution to restart the cycle. YOU have it backwards. Like when they set up America, many people had no voting rights, you needed to own land to vote, other people maybe counted as 3/5ths of a person, etc. They set all of that up in order for their sons and daughters, great grandchildren, and great great grandchildren have things to offer to the masses to keep them happy. So after 100 years, they extend voting rights. Maybe after 50 years, another group gets voting rights. Maybe another 100 years go by, and other get voting rights. You achieve stability for a few hundred years that way. Its a great suckers game, you give them something you initially withheld, and the people call you great. If they stop calling you great, cause a revolution and start over.

If there was a revolution in America and they set up a new constitution, the FIRST move would be to establish a lot of NEW inequalities in the system that are designed to be nerfed over the course of 300 years. They would sell it as a compromise to get law and order restored.

I see lots of generalizations and very little critical thought.

Inequality oscillates in every society, it will go up and down as conditions change.

The great depression happened during a period of great financial inequality. The French Revolution as well.

You should study history with more depth and put your generalizations aside until then.

You should study history more.

We can all study more.

Tell me, what was the inequality like before the constitution was written? Because according to your theory blacks should have been more free before the constitution, but I believe they were already enslaved.

Why would people revolt if there was no injustice or inequality?

It literally makes no sense.

Its okay. Hes young. Its an easy solution to think somebody or group is in charge and makes all the decisions and youre just the smart one who can see it. I miss that kind of simplicity.
