What's been driving us down this road is the total indoctrination of the most "comfortable" class in America; Credentialed suburbanites.

They are so comfortable about their degeneracy that they didn't even worry that they made their feelings known all over social media for the world to see, with their names and everything else attached.

If you are an employer, fire these people.
If you are an employer, never hire these people.
If you are an employee, rat these people out to your conservative/libertarian boss.
If you are a donor to colleges, quit donating until the scum is removed.
The businesses that keep these people hired should be boycotted like we've never seen before.

Don't relent.

When these people finally have reality set in that they are not needed in society, then, and only then, might a few of them wake up. Even then, though, they need to remain shunned from polite society. They can never be trusted.

I know it's not an exact analogy to Atlas Shrugged, but it's the same concept. Time to rid ourselves, through voluntary actions, of this massive cancer on society.

We have the tech now to be able to identify these businesses and public posts w/in seconds, so I do think this is doable, so long as millions of us follow through.

Yes it is. There really is no path because you aren’t going to suddenly convince 50% of the country that we aren’t Nazis and shouldn’t be murdered. It’s time for a permanent breakup.

Atlas didn't shrug that way... If Atlas does shrug, life is gonna get hard- our good ones will be in the gulch.

That's simply impossible. It's literally a fantasy.

We'd all be speaking Chinese in five years or less.

Agreed, which is why I said it isn't an exact analogy. That said, seems to me this is the simplest, fastest way to deal w/ this scourge of society w/o getting violent.

You might also want to recall that Atlas Shrugged was a work of fiction

These firings all over the place aren't fiction. It's just getting started too.

True.

But I doubt I'd get an invitation to the gulch... I'd just suffer under the reign of the idiot wannabe tycoons left behind.

I wish there were unclaimed land left for quiet quitters... maybe that's Elon's obsession with Mars.

We'll see how the elections in Argentina go in October. That might just be the place.

HR will prevent you from even seeing their online content prior to the hiring decision. No Google search.

Balkanizing the US into smaller nation states is a much cleaner scenario than war.

I completely support this as well. But, what we can do right now are the things I listed. I have a small business, and have hired about a dozen people over the years. I made sure none of them were Leftists. I know that in my one example, that's like pissing in the ocean, but just imagine that multiplied by millions.

There is always that one probability. The black hole that no-one understands.
