is this period in American history comparable to any other?

Its what i imagine the 40s would've been like if WWII didnt happen.

Weimar republic, except for the hyperinflation

OJ Simpson era, 20 years ago. A lot of racial tension and protests despite blacks having equal rights in both eras

>>127426626
That makes sense to me. The decades following our greatest recessions. We might need WWIII.

Black people won't stop until they've elevated themselves above whites in social status.

Maybe. But we'll destroy the entire world and human race before we decline too far.

How is it?

1920s Berlin/Weimar republic days.

The powder keg is here. Someone just needs to light the fuse

Sort of a general malaise. We're going in some direction, but the future is uncertain and we're figuring out who the hell we are again. We aren't sure where we fit in in the world right now.

That being said, we have incredible potential.

Quick rundown on the Weimar Republic?

Massively in debt via reparations to Britain/France who are in war debt to (((USA))). Can't pay debt leads to crisis and hyperinflation in 1923. Communist and Right wing street fights, later NSDAP. Country split between violent communism (see Spartacist insurrection 1920) and far right. (((USA))) pumps in money to resurrect corpse, this works fine until Wall St crash of 1929. USA depression = German collapse and mass unemployment. Nazi Communist violence escalates and Hitler voted into power.

The social situation for the ordinary German people during this time was desperate. For an example look up Berlin City of Vice on youtube. It was the Thialand sex-trade capital of the time. Ordinary German had their savings wiped out in 1923 inflation when they became worthless. You could buy any type of prostitute you wanted (eg pregnant women had a whole street, families, children), since people were that desperate just to feed themselves. (((Property owners))) and those with (((Gold and Diamonds))) were immune since these held their value. Life was a Cabaret old chum so long as you had (((money))). For everyone else it was desperate struggle just to survive. Jews were massively over-represented in media, the legal system and elsewhere that promoted degenerate cultural values. Society was decedent and any sense of moral values had been (((deconstructed))), degraded and destroyed.
