I would say somewhere around 15 yrs ish but it was a liberal environment for a very long time. So where the table is being set for... I guess I could say for a potential color revolution, there is an attraction for free thinkers. The set up for what is going on now took a long time. "The governor of Minnesota immediately before Tim Walz was Mark Dayton, a member of the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL). Dayton served two terms from January 7, 2011, to January 7, 2019. He chose not to seek re-election in 2018, paving the way for Walz to win the governorship." "Tim Walz, also from the DFL, took office on January 7, 2019, and was re-elected for a second term. However, in early January 2026, Walz announced he would not seek re-election, citing ongoing scrutiny over a social services fraud scandal. His decision opened the race for the 2026 gubernatorial election, with U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar announcing her candidacy shortly afterward."

''I would say somewhere around 15 yrs ish but it was a liberal environment for a very long time. So where the table is being set for...

Blacks from MN back then, were more 'white' than many whites from mid-west no less! Spoke better English, and better manners. However, I also saw a troubling trend even back then, MN had had its share of crooks, intelligent crooks, that were to emerge as political/financial con men/women today. Have you seen the movie, 'Fargo'? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fargo_(1996_film) 'Free thinkers' is not always positive; 'Free thinkers' could also mean, political/financial con men, as in MN. MN is getting more polarized than ever; this is where that nutjob, Michelle Bachmann had run successfully for a long time. MN is also due for an intra-state civil war after the implosion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtEqI9n1P48 People from that movie were the MN I remember in 80s/90s. Most of them cool, but a few shady character, intelligent, but self-destructive in the end, like right now. ''The set up for what is going on now took a long time.'' MN back then used to be a liberal, but a normal liberal state. Now, it's not even liberal; it has become insane.

"Have you seen the movie, 'Fargo'?" Yup a few times. One of my favorites. "'Free thinkers' is not always positive; 'Free thinkers' could also mean, political/financial con men, as in MN. " Yes of course. I use the term with a very broad brush. When I think of the culture, the people that I have met, the street people, small brick and mortar shops etc. Like my experiences in Houston. A very liberal but very metropolitan city. "MN back then used to be a liberal, but a normal liberal state. Now, it's not even liberal; it has become insane." I think that is the set up for color revolutions. We're not in one in as a nation yet but it is building. First try to control the government with a non violent ideological take over. If that doesn't work the next step is an insurrection with violence. Various actors who profit from chaos contribute to it even if they may be ideologically opposite. I don't know if any of these guys are regardless seems self perpetuating no? Funny. He forgot about Walton's daughter.
