The reason often given for the American Revolution,especially in modern education ,is excessive taxation,this flatly put is a lie.
TJ Martinell in this excellent essay makes the case for why-
Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.

Yes, the American Revolution 1.0 started because of a illegal gun grab in 1775 by an authoritarian government – and if American Revolution 2.0 breaks out – it will very likely be for the same reason.
I found this an interesting overview of the Cultural Marxism pervading our society, and causing – quite literally – all of our problems.

On lies …… I was at the local SPCA op-shop waiting to buy 2 cracking, good best- sellers @ $1 each and overheard the end of a discussion between the shop keeper and the customer. Seems the customer had relationship problems and the shopkeeper could not assist as she, herself, had not had a relationship that lasted more than 5 years. As is my custom, I inserted myself to assist; being as old as I am, I have seen it all. The customer looked at me in a most hopeful manner and asked if I was a counsellor. Damnation, I told the truth and said no. I could have “counselled” this woman and made a good income in my retirement. The value of honesty is entirely relative.
