RE: From Granada to Venezuela

I am not the first person to see a similarity between this time in history and the 1930s. It seems the world goes through spasms, historically, through waves. There is a rise of authoritarianism and then a revolt. Why the revolutions of 1848 in Europe? Why the rise of autocracy globally in the 1930s? Why the wave of anti-liberalism now, and trend toward authoritarian leaders, globally? I don't know.
