America was never great, but the nation established to treat ancestors equally timed apart for the first time since civilization began with a national set of guidelines for each subdivision of the continent to make up their own rules needed to survive as adapting to space mutually evolving here.SJConspirator » 23 Nov 2021, 9:59 am » wrote: ↑ The MAGA crowd never did answer this question.

I say we had 3 decades of greatness, roughly 1950 to 1980. That was when America had great standing on the world stage, everybody wanted to come here, and opportunities were amazing for even average folk. A family could be raised on one income, all indicators of quality of life were on the rise. Of course, the caveat to all this is it was true if you are white.
After about 1980, the middle class began to evaporate. Homelessness, poverty, sickness, drug addiction, all began to skyrocket.
Anyway that’s my take. I would like to know how some others would answer the question… when was America great? And how in the world could we ever return to greatness?

Instincts evolving over intellect manifesting ancestries to comply to idealists that work against natural positions occupying space. Realities supply self fulfilling prophecies to a species ignoring how and why living is restricted to adapting in space mutually evolving now.
Every character of reality worships God or Country, not respecting biology eternally separating each one alive now. that game of we are better than you will always be psychological bullying by mob rule over individual displacement equally occupying space now.
Race issues aside, from the industrialization era until the mass offshoring of production. So 1890-1970 perhaps? Guess we also led the dot com boom so... through the 1990s?SJConspirator » 23 Nov 2021, 9:59 am » wrote: ↑ The MAGA crowd never did answer this question.

Your methodology was used to becoming none effective against my brain navigating time mutually evolving here within a body never staying the total sum reached here again forward staying alive now.

Not great for blacks in the south.SJConspirator » 23 Nov 2021, 10:32 am » wrote: ↑ Race issues aside, huh?
you can't just ignore a defining factor of the nation, of history. I took race issues in consideration hence I excluded the years of mass lynching from our historical "greatness" 1870 thru 1935 were not great for blacks
1870-1935 weren't really great for anybody outside of the Robber Barons. 6 year olds working in a coal mine. 7 year olds working in textile mills. The newsboy strike of 1899:SJConspirator » 23 Nov 2021, 10:32 am » wrote: ↑ Race issues aside, huh?

Newsboys' strike of 1899
Newsboys and newsgirl getting afternoon papers in New York City (1910
Child coal miner 1909
Either slaves or victims of tribal genecide. Remember blacks sold other tribe's people to other parts of the world to conquer the land their tribe occupied. last time I read history native Americans did the same **** before the whiteman landed.

builds character really lost its value as a sole displacement equally timed apart now.
According to the right wing it was before 1860. And they wanted to kill Americans just like today.SJConspirator » 23 Nov 2021, 9:59 am » wrote: ↑ The MAGA crowd never did answer this question. If Make America Great Again is a campaign slogan, it begs the question, WHEN was America great?

Your we exterminate those who hate and dismantle any remaining culture?
