Is self evident truth self evident?

As I sit and watch society across the world devolve into chaos I am struck by the realization that for so long we have held that self evident truth is so self evident it stands on its own. Sadly that is never the case. As progressivism took over the education establishment the Truth that led to there being an education establishment was eliminated from education. Once that was lost all sorts of evils crept in and society as a whole is now suffering the consequences. If you think that antifa or BLM or the CCP or socialism is going to bring about a better world then you are truly mistaken. Very very sadly mistaken. Unless the present course is altered we are heading for another time future generations may call the second dark ages. Humanity is in a downward cycle and it does not look good for the future.
