Did the American Idea work for a couple of hundred years, or was that an illusion?
Can it ever work?
No, the American Republic is not an illusion. It was real, palpably real. But, as Gibbon famously stated: âHistory is indeed little more than the register of the crimes, follies, and misfortunes of mankind.â The default position in our history is tyranny. The periods celebrating the flickering candle of intellectual liberty, such as Periclean Athens and the American Republic, are cruelly brief. The new Dark Age of Tyranny is upon is. America RIP.
It was the peak of civilization, and because of itâs greatness, it continued to function better than any others in spite of the rot of corruption that set in.
But corruption and tyranny seem to have overwhelmed it at this point - the tyrants are in power, and the corrupt are in the majority.
How do you depose corrupt tyrants with votes?
They just rig the system.
So, are you suggesting that violence is imminent - a civil war?
I donât know. I hope not. I donât think it would work.
I think we have to see this in the context of the adversary weâre up against - communism - and the extent to which that adversary has been more zealous and ruthless in pursuing its goals than we have been in defending ours against its attacks. If weâve fallen, weâve fallen from within because our immune response to communism was weakened - an essential part of their strategy - beginning around 1970 contemporary with our cultural revolution that had been growing in strength since the time of Kennedyâs assassination - which ended The Greater Fifties, the eighteen years 1946-1963 when our immune system against communism was fairly robust.
Yes.
The West also won the Cold War. Against Russian Communism. But not against Communism. Which just scored a frightful victory with the New York kangaroo courtâs absurd and vicious condemnation of President Trump.
What will we do now? The law is our shelter. It has been demolished.
So violent rebellion now?
âWhen in the Course of human eventsâŚâ
Mark Levinâs take on this legal abomination:
How does this American left define violence?
Apparently violence according to the Left is -
Praying in the vicinity of an abortion clinic
Being near or entering the Capitol on January 6 2021 while not being a Democrat
Being Jewish
Flying the flag with the tree on it
Building a border wall
Burning coal, oil, or gas
Being a white male
Stating that you canât change your sex
Appreciating the police
What is not violence is -
Rioting in the streets
Arson
Killing police officers
Looting
Shoplifting
Entering the US unlawfully
Mutilating the bodies of children
Murdering while being a Democrat or Muslim
Both lists could be much longer.
Yes, to the left, even speech is violence, if it offends them! But of course, their own actual violence is fine, and is totally justified, because itâs for the righteous cause of the Revolution!!!
Theyâre fighting Fascists!!! Stop the hate!!!
Say the most hateful people in historyâŚ
Yes speech is violence - and so is silence!
Yes, speech is violence and so is silence - i.e., unless youâre chanting their catechism, you can be retaliated against for your âthreat to our democracyâ. The left reads Orwellâs 1984 as a how-to manual.
Your flag for THEM is perfectly designed.
The red star among the bananas was a super-inspiration.
