@@lonelylad9818 Quite respectfully, you two sound (exactly) like old Cubans referring to, "how things were before 19.59" -- before the 'rev.olution'. What now seems shocking or surreal, eventually becomes 'clearer than water'--as we say--and once their intention becomes plain enough for all to see, a life-exterminating nightmare of biblical magnitude begins.
@@blackdiamond8 This is what makes today different from prior periods of history though. When tyrants took power in previous days few people had access to records and knowledge about the better time before hand. Today anyone can see these things.
What I found interesting was how the whole country stopped to watch the news about it. And came together as one. Now people just look at theor phones and move on. We've lost the sense of community.
You sound exactly like someone who didn't live through that time and don't know any better, and now you're defending how bad it has gotten -- like a cultural Stockholm syndrome. Your world COULD be better, yet you're defending the squalor it has become.
These videos illustrate American as a once beautiful and prosperous country. It is SHOCKING how bad things have gotten.
Yeah that's what I was thinking. The cities and buildings in the background look like they're in a much better state. It's surreal.
