n other words, I believe that the ruling elites are picking a fight, trying to provoke unrest, and are doing so in order to be able to justify measures that are genuinely repressive.
quote:
If that reaction finally happens—say a right wing protest at a federal building somewhere turns violent—it will be used as an excuse for emergency measures. The reaction from middle America will have to be violent enough to justify the emergency measures, but not violent enough to accomplish much of anything for the participants.
On top of that, the resultant emergency measures will need to be robust enough to alter or delay the results of the midterms. This is because the party in power almost always loses ground in the midterms, and if that pattern were to hold true in 2022, then the Democrats would lose both the House and the Senate. Now in the current climate, do you believe that they are in any frame of mind to lose the House and the Senate? I didn’t think so.
And so the takeaway lesson for conservatives is: don’t take the bait. Under no circumstances should we take the bait. I think I may have mentioned before that we should not take the bait.
quote:
The alleged COVID emergency was used to set aside longstanding election laws and procedures, and introduced a whole new way of voting, in the middle of a crisis, without any of the established safeguards. An emergency was used to justify doing something novel in an important national election, something we had never done before, and on the spur of the moment. In some cases, the emergency was used to justify flagrant violations of existing law, and then SCOTUS declined to hear anything about it—because other states that wanted fair national elections didn’t have “standing.” If this keeps up, another thing that won’t have standing for very long is the Republic. You can’t have standing if you no longer are standing.
But there I go again, pointing at the clear and obvious monkey business that surrounded our last election cycle. This wasn’t going to be one of my examples, but it does fit right in, so let me just mention it. Did you know that, according to the National Terrorism Advisory System, under the Department of Homeland Security, people who are opposed to COVID measures, who claim that there was election fraud in 2020, and who mark religious holidays, are—get this—”potential terror threats”? And if you see something, you should say something. Unless of course you have something to say that might contradict the official narrative.
quote:
The Reichstag fire occurred shortly after Hitler took power, and was apparently the work of a lone communist. But Hitler blamed a vast communist conspiracy for it, and so was able to ratchet his initial electoral success into the formation of what then became Nazi Germany. For his purposes, it did not matter who set the fire—what mattered was who defined the meaning of the fire for the public. It could have been a lone commie, it could have been a bunch of commies, it could have been a false flag Nazi operation, or it could even have been a bunch of FBI agents trying to kidnap the governor of Michigan. What mattered was who set the narrative after the fact, and Hitler was the one who did that.

Been saying this for months. As soon as people react, they are going to bring the hammer down. They have already set the stage for it

they keep pushing the emotions. They're waiting.
we have to start thinking in advance the way they do, never under estimate the enemy

Be extremely subtle even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate.

It is exactly what they’re doing. So far, we aren’t taking the bait which is why the false flags pop up. Notice how the ANTIFA vs Proud Boys clashes are never actually violent. Just a bunch of idiots with bear spray and paint balls. I think they’re on the same team playing a part in this Leftist agenda movie. Trying to poke the bear. The elite no they are safe no matter what happens. We’re all just pawns.

reminds me of the one and only time I visited NY city, many moons ago. My buddy wanted to watch this three card monte con. I'll never forget the goofy fake smile of the shill that was taking on the dealer and winning. And obviously they were trying to lure some dumbfuk in. I told my buddy to just leave it be. He called me a month later and told me he bought a brick for $256 from some dude on the street. It was apparently in a camcorder box, nice and tightly shrink wrapped. The seller disappeared before he could open it and discover the brick. F'ing idiot.

I don't disagree with this. Obviously Pelosi thinks she can get there from January 6th. Or she's trying desperately to tie Trump to it because she knows he will soon be back in the White House.
If you're going to pray, pray that the actual truth will all be revealed in our government. Also pray that God will uphold We the People as the authority in this country.
Washington has been abusing and flouting that authority for too long. God likes authority and tends to lean in favor of it.

The solution is two countries peacefully.

I’m for it, would be willing to move, but the evil side is all about control, their idiots would be for it, but not their leaders

That quote made me think of this song:
quote:
Swear allegiance to the flag Whatever flag they offer Never hint at what you really feel Teach the children quietly For some day sons and daughters Will rise up and fight while we stood still Can you hear me, can you hear me running? Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

I'm hopeful that when they do bring the hammer down (and it's only a matter of time regardless of whether or not the "right" actually perpetrates whatever that event may be) that it will be the flash point for an actual push back. I don't know though. I'm more scared that everyone would silently comply than I am of the alternative.

On the other hand, Australia never reacted and things got worse and worse. It’s complete tyranny there.

There is a section of one of the links in OP with this title. It’s worth a read. About halfway down in the piece entitled “Three Chess Moves Ahead”.
