There have been a number of changes in the US which has led to more division. But if you want the guilty party it's this guy here. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/11/newt-gingrich-says-youre-welcome/570832/

Nothing like gift cards to get people to vote! Lol.

Restored it to what? Before it was a communist shithole it was a medieval-style feudal shithole.

I don't think there is a Canadian military person that has not struggled with the question is it really worth all the sacrifice that is required to soldier for this nation. Yes it has been completely ignored by decades of governments from both sides liberal and cons. But it is also been ignored by it's citizens, they have been silent for decades and without their support the forces is going to continue to slide into the dumpster. If Canadians actually knew the condition of our Armed forces, they would be disgusted, this condition is to be blamed on like you said on a huge drain on highly skilled soldiers, who have quit to look for better employment with better futures. This skill loss along with lack of modern equipment, and resources is weakening the entire forces capabilities. a lot of Capabilities are lost already. This has been going on for decades. It is truly frustrating to have government after government lie and continue the destruction, but it is heart breaking that the very citizens we defend no longer give a shit or are willing to stand up and demand the government to act. Our military has time after time proven that they are world class soldiers, held back from their true capabilities by old and obsolete equipment, lack of funding, or government policies made only to complicate DND existence.

Once you accept the existence of "systemic racism" you can't win. Anything can be an example of it and any contradiction gets shouted down by the "Whose streets? Our Streets!" minority. For them it's us versus them. But you can't accept that and shout back because if you do you're the bad guy. There's a third side. The wishy washy middle. They can't accept the idea that there is a conflict. Although they're shy to admit it too loud they've bought into the lie of the victimized racial minority. They don't want to be seen as the bad guy so they just say there is no battle and attack anybody noticing that there actually is one as being combative and the cause of the conflict. I think those of us who know there is a conflict need to take our eyes away from the cause for a bit and deal with what think of themselves as moderates. We need to clarify the enemy for them so even they can recognize the obvious conflict with an obvious enemy. And the enemy isn't 'people of colour." It's what call themselves "Progressives" through socialists to the admittedly communists. Or as I like to call them, the 'Prog->comms.' Progcomms invented this 'systemic racism' lie to cause division. We need to clarify the enemy and shout back. Once they realize that we've identified the real enemy and object to the nonsense they are creating they'll back away like they always do. For awhile after FDR, "Progressive" became a slur and they backed away. We need to make it one again. Without the Progs the Comms are no threat. With them they are. The comms create the term 'systemic racism.' When they get the progs to start believing in it, that's when you've got a problem.
