In my younger years, studying world and American history in school, I used to wonder how people of those past times could have been so stupid. How could people actually believe that Hitler was a righteous man? How could they be convinced that Jews were evil, and Nazism was good? Germans and Japanese at that time must have been crazy.
Didn’t Americans
understand that a civil war between states so close could lead to incredible
bloodshed? How could people who shared
the same heritage and culture go at each other’s throats so readily? It seemed like fantasy to me. People must have been completely different
back then, much more gullible and ignorant.
How could it have been possible for Josef Stalin to starve
tens of millions of Ukrainians to death with no resistance? How could Mao, as leader of the world’s
largest population, assassinate a major portion of his own people without
opposition? It seems impossible, almost
like fiction.
After 65 years of my existence, I now realize that people
have not changed. The ignorance of man
is not a fantasy, it is real and enduring.
It is a different world, yet the same. We are the same people who killed six million
Jews under the Nazis, slaughtered 620,000 Americans in the Civil War, and murdered
tens of millions of Ukrainians and Chinese under Communism.
In our modern, so sophisticated Western world, we welcome
the conquerors and assassins of an ancient culture into our society, where they
can continue conquering and assassinating us with our complete cooperation.
We welcome laws suppressing our freedom to speak, to own
property, to operate a small business, and to defend ourselves. We actively oppose the Constitution that
brought us where we are today.
In America, we built a thriving civil society, amazing the
world with our wealth, our perseverance, our moral strength, and our positive
ideology. We were the saviors of
humanity.
And now, we show that we are truly fallible humans, in the
process of destroying it all. Being in
the middle of this history, most of us can’t see it. Having eliminated slavery and attained social
justice, we demand more. Having achieved
racial equality, it is not enough. Being
the wealthiest nation of people in the world does not satisfy us. We need total global equality and diversity
on Earth for every sex, race, and religion, even if that is not rationally possible
to achieve.
The only way for the fantasy to become reality is by
force. We must suppress all expressions
of resistance by making laws against speech that are counter to our
objectives. We must prevent private
citizens from resisting our edicts with dangerous weapons. We must eliminate historical references that
distract the populace. We must
deconstruct society by confusing sexuality and demonizing religion.
Statues are symbols of white supremacy and Western
colonialism and must be destroyed.
History must be corrected. Books
need to be burned.
Nothing has changed.
The new Antifa are the old Nazis and Communists. It is very possible that they will grow in
strength and influence. There is
currently nothing to stop them. The Dems
are on their side. The media is on their
side. The deep state is on their
side. Merging with Black Lives Matter to
increase their power is an obvious strategy.
North Korea, Cuba and Venezuela could conceivably be the
bellwethers of the future of the world if America falls to the stupidity of
leftist ideology.
There is no apparent strategy from the Republican party to
counter this threat. President Trump is
the only force opposing the takeover of America from the radical left. And he is being mercilessly assailed from his
own party, as well as the leftist opposition.
He could well be impeached if enough Dems are elected to Congress. And who can predict the actions of ignorant,
stupid (and illegal) voting people?
The crux of my diatribe is that the left has strength and a
strategy, corrupt as it is. The right
does not. The left has overwhelming
influence in the media, education, and propaganda in the form of
“entertainment”. The right has
nothing. The left is forming a cohesive
force that could disrupt the political balance of the nation, leading us into
an uncharted territory of potential fascism.
Historically, we see clear evidence that this is not only possible, but
inevitable.
The right must become the new resistance, using guerrilla
tactics against the left, just as the left uses Alinsky tactics. The left has acquired the power, if not the
numbers. The right has the law and the
Constitution on its side, if not the leftist Obama and Clinton-appointed
federal judges. It is already becoming
all-out cyber war, with the social media giants Google and Twitter (among other
major players) actively blocking conservative speech. Paypal is in the process of dropping
conservative sites. The current meme is:
Conservative speech = hate speech, and must be banned.
In the new civil war, no one needs to die for their
cause. Violence is the left’s purview. The right just needs to defeat and
delegitimize the irrational ideas of the left, as well as their violent
tactics. As in the past, leftists will
retreat and become pacifistic, lying in wait for their next opportunity. But, it will not be as easy as it
sounds. A lot of social and emotional
upheaval will be required for this to happen.
And we must understand that the incredibly misguided ideology of the
left will never die as long as humans are involved.
Even some of the most intelligent humans on Earth are still
incredibly ignorant when it comes to politics vs. reality and how to maintain
our survival as a species. We perceive
things and events not as they are, but how we would like them to be in our
warped little world view. Humans lack
perspective. Otherwise we would see how
petty and vile we truly are in the scheme of infinite time and space.
May God have mercy on
our poor, wrenched souls. For those of
us who try to see the perspective clearly, that’s why good beers and gin &
tonics were invented.
