[USA] What do you think the political landscape will look like in the new saeculum?
#26
In general people will be sick of moralizing crusades, especially those whose m morality is suspect or whose risks make those crusades unworthy. The Mature Reactive (in the Presidency, Washington, J. Adams, Grant, Truman, Eisenhower, Obama) type will set a bland and cautious style while Millennial adults are consolidating power.

Remember well that moralizers can themselves be evil. Adolf Hitler could moralize about all sorts of wrongs done to the Volk while oppressing, enslaving, and killing others.  Mobsters, the worst of which are usually associated with Reactive generations, are vindictive in the extreme.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
