In the history books, great social revolutions are often distilled into digestible reasons for their emergence. Rising unemployment, widespread illness, cultural upheaval, and rapid technological change have all been diagnosed as the proximate causes for various sudden shifts in society. If you look past those antiseptic historical autopsies, though, and concentrate on the feelings and passions of the people who experienced the revolutions firsthand, you will find another symptom present in every single movement for great change: popular rejection of ruling class lies.
People despise lies, especially lies that have had the effect of making them feel foolish. People despise lies so much that they will go out of their way to pretend obvious lies are somehow still based in truth. It is much more comfortable to believe that governing institutions continue to make “honest” mistakes than to accept that those institutions abandoned honesty a long time ago. It is easier to spin one lie away with yet another soothing lie than to accept the darker, harder, bitter truth. However, officially sanctioned lies tend to coagulate in the body politic much like spike proteins clotting in the blood until, eventually, the whole system just bursts.
When that happens, people become rightly mad. They are mad not only because they finally recognize that their government has been engaged in massive deceptions, but also because they are ashamed for having defended obvious lies as truths for far too long. Rage is the inevitable result — a rejection of the people and institutions responsible for such degrading self-delusions. And when rage arrives, a peculiar thing tends to happen: fewer and fewer ruling-class heirs remain to defend the status quo. History records successful revolutions when the previous system’s liars rebrand themselves, recede into the background, or simply disappear.
what would you expect from a culture that has rejected GOD?

A boiling pot of what smells like bad seafood and chitlings.
