Fare the well, Friends - Parting thoughts

Well, I think this will be my last post on this site.
Here are my concluding thoughts after more than a decade posting here:
- this is a great corner of the Internet with some smart folks;
- the United States that we have known is over...I really mean that. I don’t think people have really appreciated that yet. I think even the GOP congressional members, staff and the lobbyist and industry around them don’t actually appreciate this fact. They want to put Trump behind them and return to the normal cocktail party business ventures, enriching themselves and their friends.
That is over. They erroneously believe that this is about Trump for liberals. It’s about absolute power. The Left has attained it and there is no looking back. They control the message, they control communications and they control all branches of federal government.
- I think American Christians, of which I am one, still believe God will somehow intervene and protect us from persecution experienced by millions of Christians over the last couple hundred years in France, Russia, China, Africa, and other places. Why?
Leftist regimes ALWAYS target Christians and many times it results in genocide.
God will no doubt prevail in the end, but there may be a dark valley ahead.
- There is talk of what will trigger a real response from the 75 million disenfranchised Conservative voters.
The common thought is when they come for our guns. Well, without an organized, lead force fighting, nothing will happen...please look at the French and Russian revolutions as evidence.
- Finally, you can’t see things clearly without studying and appreciating the reality around you.
Conservatives must accept the reality and their vulnerabilities.
100 years from now, historians will look at the period between March 2020 and December 2021 as the fire that destroyed the greatest empire the world had known to that point.
I’m not saying we should quit, give up or cease planning. I’m saying we must accept reality and enjoy each day for the day it is. Love your family and friends. Treat people right. Pray and read your Bibles. Be cleared eyed and plan, as you can, be deliberate about everything.
However, the sooner you accept reality as a Conservative and understand those in power hate you, the more likely you can think about and plan for your immediate future and enjoy the present without focusing on those things you ultimately cannot control.
See you on the other side, Johnny. It’s been real.

Godspeed, patriot.
Hard to disagree with much of your post.

It’s already written, brother. We’ll lose here.
Take care.

This is how I felt when Obama won re-election in 2012. Then 2016 came along and gave me hope again.
You never know what the future holds. The present rarely predicts it. The Past can, and does, but with too many variables.
Keep your chin up, Mickey.

I don't blame you. Last week really broke me as it ruined most people's ability to support Trump and his policies publicly. But, it's not just the left responsible for the current situation. The swamp is what it is. If Trump has done nothing else, he has exposed the GOPe as frauds.

The difference now is that they are looking to rig the entire f*cking system. They've done nothing short of explicitly telling us just this by saying that they'll get rid of the filibuster, give statehood to D.C. and Puerto Rico, pack the Supreme Court, etc. And, if you don't think that they'll institute mail-in voting in all federal elections without any accountability, then you are one supremely ignorant individual.
With mail-in ballots and Dominion voting machines, they know that they have achieved the end result of never losing a Presidential election.
It's amazing to think that the only thing between our Democracy and the Democrat Nazi Party taking over every aspect of government and our lives is Joe F*cking Manchin because once they get rid of the filibuster, this country is completely gone.

Got the FBI on your tail?

Voices like yours are needed. I certainly understand your reason for leaving, but I would hope that you and others with the same mindset continue to post here with wisdom like this. It’s needed.

Dude melted out of sight! Damndest thing ever.
Folks seem to be concerned about living in Russia and France. As if either is an intolerable hell hole LOL. I've been to both....folks seemed to be living their lives and doing so without any outward appearance of undue stress. Strange that....

Too much Truth. The Truth Hurts.

Thanks for summarizing my attitude so precisely.
I’m 82 and don’t expect to see another real election - only sham shows to demonstrate 98.7% support of new regime.
Got many in my own family on wrong side of this.
Trying to decide if I should separate totally from them to protect them from the coming purges.
Good luck. We’re gonna gonna need it.

Let's stop calling it the FBI and call it what it is --
The DNC Gestapo.
Or, better yet, they can name it in honor of the man who perverted it and turned it into the Gestapo --
The Messiah Odumbf*ck Gestapo.
The only thing that surprises me is that they haven't passed a law making everyone in America give Odumbf*ck the Nazi Salute whenever he's in public -- with the penalty of death if you fail to do so.

Well why don't you roll into Venezuela dumb shite?
You know what you will see? Anybody 30 or under will have no idea that it could have been better.
Now tell us how Venezuela is the best it can possibly be.
