Something new is coming into our world. We have Brexit, we have Trump. We might have Le Pen and Wilders. The hoi polloi (the majority) are speaking up against the few who rule them. A revolution is taking place and the rulers should take note.
It’s time for a change.
Political correctness might become a dirty word along with “fake” statistics, post modernism and multiculturalism.
The people are turning.
But to our rulers in their great political maneuverings we are the irrelevant peaceful majority.
I’ve seen this video before – it’s not that new – but its well worth watching – enjoy!

“Something new is coming into our world”-LR
Is there? I think one of the few advantages to growing is that I begin to see more and more that the bible was right:
Ecclesiastes 1:9King James Version (KJV)
9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
There is very little that can be described as ‘new’ and that which is nearly always has a parallel somewhere in history. The Victorians had an ‘internet’ – with graphics and hackers too. The rise of ‘populist’ politicians happens all the time.

True thing you say – but it is “new” to us, currently. I can’t remember such a swell from the people – and I’m 72. The other thing I learned as a historian, is that history does NOT repeat itself. It is always only “reminiscent”. “Swells from the people” do not always end well – eg French Revolution!

True, unfortunately we, humanity, DO!

“and I’m 72. ”
I turned nine and forty yesterday…and I feel every single one of my 80 plus winters (winter in Norfolk counting double).
