America’s Final Collapse: When History Repeats

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it and America is no different. There are countless similarities today between Rome during its collapse and America today, including: A lazy, entertained, uninformed public A small group of ruling elite A devaluing currency and economy An overstretched military A growing domestic spy force/police state Diminishing civil liberties Look at the comparisons and ask yourself, Can America can sustain this empire? How long before its collapse? 10 years? 20 years? 50? 100? Most Americans agree that our country needs to change its course. I agree. Check out my channel and subscribe for more videos.
@777micoly Everyone should just be atheist.
@thewardiam You speak the truth.
One problem. Rome was a city state more than a country and rome was sacked by germanian barbarians no one could ever hope to invade america we all are armed to the teeth. Bring it b*tches, scoreboard.
@777micoly That would be the Vactican then, yes
Since exactly when has that fully pagan religion been Christian ?
Wow 2000 years and people are still this stupid. i guess only our toys got smarter, not our actual philosophical intelligence.tsk tsk too bad.
@777micoly Good call.
There is an ironic element to the collapse of Rome that rarely gets mentioned. Christians had been in control of the Roman Empire for more than a century when it finally collapsed. The sacking of Rome was commited by German tribes who were themselves Christians. Christians inherited a decadent empire and made it ever more decadent. Then, from without, Christians finished the job. It’s Christians who think they can save America from it’s decadence by making it more Christian. LOL
What an idiot
Everyone “knows” the reason of the decline of the Roman Empire. Their reasons are in accordance with their agendas. But the truth is simple: There were just too many barbarians pressing all the time.Even the Eastern part almost fell to the Huns. In fact, in a sense they did. They paid huge taxes to them.
@Logology101 Many things changed when the Catholic Church gained control of the Roman Empire. Roman society went from allowing a diversity of religions to having a single enforced state religion. There were massive heresiological fights where many people died. Well educated Romans were forced to convert, banished, prisoned or killed. The classical education system was almost entirely shut down & books were burned. The Roman Empire was deteriorating for a century prior to the sacking of Rome.
@Logology101 The Visigoths were converted to Arian Christianity in the 4th century and the Catholic Church declared Arianism to be a heresy. Roman missionaries introduced Arian Christianity to the Visigoths, but the Visigoths didn’t become Catholic Christians until the 6th century. The Visigoths were aligned with the Romans in the 4th century. Visigoths sacking Rome wasn’t foreign heathens attacking, but was a conflict between Christianities.
I think its not that bad yet, but it does seem like its going downhill.
@MarmaladeINFP Actually the Germanic peoples converted to Christianity after the sack of Rome. It was the Romans who introduced it to them. Not only that, but Constantine, the first Christian Emperor of Rome, was devout and active in the Church, and he managed to end the civil wars during his lifetime, which just kind of resumed when he died anyways. But still, I don’t think that when Christianity was finally accepted in Rome that it made anything worse.
@moshos that would be the Byzantines an eastern remnant of Rome

The Roman Empire was huge before this Jesus character.
Final collapse…… more than a 1000 years later in 1453
7 people who watched this vid were so affraid of the truth that they thumbed it down.
We are making the same decisions/mistakes governments did in the past and are so blind to to think that they will provide us with different outcomes.
The past is a key to the future. Break the chains, free your self, research everything.
@selenadelos I always had this nasty feeling about that even as a child. Manifest Destiny? That had me going. And I always saw the Homestead Act as a cheap and tawdry thing; a license to murder, take, rape and conquer.
America isn’t Rome all over again? As I said, I see no differences anymore. Zero.
And like Rome, the beginning of the end is at hand.
Yes this is the America I know and as a Native American all I see is signs that justice is coming on this nation that`s very foundation was built upon Ethnic Cleansing and Slavery and to many other crimes against humanity to include here. My peoples are walking ghosts in this land that was supposed to be “The Cradle” but has been made into our grave, and so may it follow with this people whom did not even have the moral decency to correct even the smallest things they could. Wiyelo
All Taxation is slavery, dooming the people to destruction. Soldiers get paid to enslave their relatives. Only when mass starvation begins will soldiers wise up. Read THE DOOZIE or be a slave.
just wait until the states become Islamic states, it’s happening in England right now, 6 million of the fkkers and they breed like rabbits
woah, the way he said that makes it sound like Rome ruled Scotland. not true.
what about the thousand years of the roman state after the fall of the JUNIOR COLLEAGUE in ravenna in 476 and 480 with julius nepos? i guess it just “doesnt count” then cause it doesnt fit in with this view……
This isn’t just America seriously the whole world is going to collapse if we don’t start fighting back and doing something about it I’m starting to write songs about it
