u/BasedCitizen covers the following points, but I think it's worth going a bit deeper.
You sound pissed off. Good.
What BC points out is that "western way of life has been poisoned by the left" Firstly, that's actually inaccurate. It's the Cabal working on either side of politics, to undermine and corrupt.
" it has been allowed to happen with our collective apathy" this is a key point. Up until the point where you accept and acknowledge "I let this happen" "we let this happen" "I am responsible", up until that point, you won't be able to see the way forward clearly. Why is this?
It's because of the basic fallen nature that brought about the entire situation. Let me illustrate with a scriptural reference. In the Garden of Eden story, the children, Adam and Eve, are pure. No sin, no corrupt nature. Only the nature God endowed them with.
Along comes the serpent (aka an Archangel), who tempts eve by lying to her and manipulating her, and she accepts it. The lying and the manipulating were the Angel's, but the acceptance was hers. She'd be given the truth "Don't eat, because if you do, the MOST serious of consequences", but in the end, she chose to disbelieve this and believe the lie.
Next, she goes to Adam, and the same thing happens.
Stick with me here, because it's really, really important.
Both of them, Eve, then Adam, made a choice at some point as to WHAT they believed. The chose to NOT believe the truth, and they chose to believe the Lie.
But then, what happened (in the story)? God comes looking, and asks Adam. What did you do, son? Did you eat the fruit??? Even after I told you it would be disastrous? Adam's response? (Paraphrasing here for clarification)
"Hey, not my fault. It was the fault of the woman YOU gave me! She misled me!"
God goes to Eve: Same thing: "What happened, daughter?" "Not my fault. The serpent beguiled me."
What this shows is a fundamental component of the corrupt fallen nature they inherited from their relationship with the Angel. Not accepting responsibility. "Not my fault - her/hsi fault". Denial of their own role in the resulting destruction.
See? (This also explains why Jesus was victorious. Despite the fact that he was NOT of the fallen lineage of Adam and Eve, with sin like every other human, he DID accept responsibility. He DID say, "It's my fault. I'll take responsibility for it all." In this, we are shown the path towards overcoming evil, overcoming the evil in ourselves. By taking responsibility for it.
Until we collectively stand up and say "it's OUR fault things got here" and say "Whatever the case, I will accept the responsibility (for myself, for my family, for my country)", until that point, the cause of the problem CANNOT be fixed.
This is why the Great Awakening is necessary. This ONLY changes when enough of us stand up and say "It's my fault. I will accept the responsibility for how things are", with the same heart, the same mindset as Jesus.
That is what is necessary. From this viewpoint, people should understand that the emergence of Trump is a grace from God. He is the president we needed, not the one we deserved. That's grace from God, or the Universe, or however you choose to see it.
BUT, what is the key to all this? It's enough of us standing up, accepting responsibility, with humility, and choosing to ACCEPT our ROLE in how things got here - the very thing that the fallen ancestors could NOT do - that's what makes this whole thing work.
And whether you think you are blameless, that perhaps the you never made a bad or wrong choice, and lived the perfect life so actually, it was NOT your fault, personally, or that you should NOT be responsible - well, that's where the example of Jesus comes in. Because HE did just that, and in doing that he SHOWED us the way, the truth and the life (aka himself). He's not just the author of salvation. He's the model of how to live in a way that corrects all the wrongs in the world.
Once you accept this approach, this attitude and this mindset/heart, then it doesn't actually matter what other people do. A person with that mindset becomes unstoppable.
If in some real sense "it had to be this way", it's because not only are we resolving a centuries or millennia-long plan and path of destruction, we are being propelled towards the place where we solve the actual cause. In my view, this is the REAL meaning of the Great Awakening.
When I gather on the streets of my city with hundreds of thousands of other citizens (as I did last November, for example), I can see all of them taking that stance. "The bastards are corrupt, but WE will stand up here to stand against it, to speak out on it, and take action because we choose to be responsible."
This is another reason why "it's going to be biblical". Because, it's exactly the same themes and truths that the scripture was designed to reveal to us.
Only when I step up and accept that I am responsible (actually, I'm responsible for the entire mess in the world), only then will I truly understand Jesus' heart. He did that without being at fault, but I am a sinner, and I come from the lineage of the fallen Adam and Eve.
The world can only be changed by a truly radical transformation of the human heart. What Jesus initiated 2000 years ago, is now coming to fruition. Evil is being exposed, and humans are finally waking up on a level that will make it possible for God and Jesus to purge the world of that evil. They've been preparing us for 2000 years. Well, look up. We're finally here.
