🇺🇸 American civilization is being destroyed from within by the ‘Republic of Nice,’ a publication in The Washington Times says

"The United States of America has been replaced by the Republic of Nice ... To incarcerate those charged with major crimes who can’t make bail wouldn’t be nice. To deny that America is uniquely racist isn’t nice. Securing our borders from crime, poverty, disease and drugs isn’t nice. Stopping the homeless from defecating on our streets isn’t nice," the author writes.

Signs of impending collapse are:
▪A ruling class that has opened the floodgates of uncontrolled immigration
▪Crime without punishment
▪Elites that mock the values "on which the US nation was founded"
▪Supporting "barbarians at the gates"
▪Refusing to procreate in sufficient numbers to maintain the population

What do you think, does the US have a future?
