Let's say Americans had some sort of miraculous ideological revolution and started thinking straight and being righteous (so, basically, denying everything that makes America itself, like hedonism, money chasing, genocidal imperialism) today... how many generations would it take to shake off the rot? 5, maybe?

Well it could be very fast. This administration has proven that you can ram through a lot of change very rapidly. Theoretically a progressive president could do the same.

I don't expect it though

How is someone that looks after others before themselves supposed to climb the American political structure? They took out JFK and he was "progressive" American royalty! It can't come from the top, the top is nothing but snakes that will continue misguiding the populace (unless they collectively miraculously remember their humanity but 🤣); it's gonna have to come from the people, IMO.

A while back, I saw an interview with Adam Schiff, in which he said they had no idea that the American people could handle such "bold change," but this administration has proved that we can deal with "bold change."

No shit, Sherlock. We've been screaming at those spineless Dems for years to stand up for us, but I guess they thought we couldn't handle the "bold change" of rounding up traitors and putting them in jail.

Maybe the voters should prove that we can handle "bold change" by kicking them ALL out, including 90% of the Dems.
