How much lawlessness will we tolerate until the pendulum swings the other way?

Read this thread today on Reddit: Note placed on door of now permanently closed clothing store in Portland, Oregon

I think this story might've been posted here from other sources before, but I found this thread on Reddit interesting because the comments there are usually hard/extreme-left, yet every one of the most-upvoted was an anecdote of similar occurrences in their own cities and a general unhappiness with the way things are trending. Another thread, where people were sharing stories about gross things they've seen people do in public, contained several anecdotes from San Francisco, to the point where a user commented, "San Fran, y'all ok?"

It intrigues me because until now most of hate I've seen on Reddit is directed at billionaires, Republicans, white men, and Christians. Now, they have this explicit evidence that Democrat cities and policies are failing hard-working people and their leaders are incompetent. The general unrest in the comments was actually toward the people breaking the law and the leadership of these cities and I was shocked. One even commented, "Police have been on silent strike since all the George Floyd stuff."

For some of them, this is finally hitting close to home. Their cars are being broken into. Their favorite shops are closing. They are seeing filth and open drug use seemingly promoted and accepted by their Democratic leaders. Giuliani has become a laughingstock, sadly, but there was a time he cleaned NYC up by actually being tough on crime, investing in the NYPD, and giving them the freedom to act to enforce our laws. That needs to happen again in every city across America, but until now, the average liberal didn't have the stomach for it and wanted to blame everyone else for these criminals' bad behavior.

So now what will they do? Will they wake up and help America become a nation of laws again? I sure hope so.

Until we fix the fraudulent voting systems and the resulting MASSIVE F*CKING VOTER FRAUD committed by the Democrats, the pendulum will never swing.

People in Blue states get what they vote for. I don't feel sorry for them.

Vote blue like they've been conditioned to do

The Reddit types you're witnessing are not bold enough to go against the grain and make a stand despite the cognitive dissonance upstairs

Yet, they will continue to have a total disconnect between their voting habits and the subsequent results of their voting habits.

As soon as one person says "yeah, those goddamn republicans", they'll absolve themselves of any semblance of responsibility and fall even farther to the left. Programming/indoctrination is the main problem that needs addressed. These people are abused housewives being beaten by their alcoholic husband right in front of the police but still begging the police not to handcuff him. They truly believe that the devil you don't know is better than the one you do.

These people can't admit they are wrong and have been wrong. Just look at the Kung Flu, have you seen a single leftist come out and admit they were wrong now, given all the studies and data clearly pointing it out?

It's amazing that they don't see the lack of law enforcement and the crimes being committed.

They say it's so sad that their is so little support for these people that they have to commit crimes.

They forget that the change in the equation isn't the lack of support, because that didn't change from years ago. What had changed is the lack of law enforcement.

But their liberals minds refuse to connect those dots.

You are assuming it will.

Laws are enforced in small towns and rural areas. Large cities run by Democrats are making a choice to put up with crime. This will continue until the voters say "No more."

That's asking them to admit their ideology is wrong. That doesn't happen in Marxism.

This isn't a pendulum. This feels like a permanent shift.

We will tolerate much, much more because people are comfortable in their existence... As long as it is not happening to them directly, they really do not care...

Nothing happens until the upper middle class takes a financial hit.

That's the only thing that moves these people. Money.

The uniparty with democrats leading have been getting involved in color revolutions and nation building to corrupt with NGO's.

Why didn't Biden assist the people that protested in Havana? They were shot in the streets and political prisoners. Why won't we get involved now with China's people uprising against communism?

We are at global war. Xi assassinated the Japanese prime minister and no one batted an eye. Brazil was the last color revolution.

We have covert ops we could run to assist in Xi standing down as the world dictator. We are frozen because Xi took 50 years to infiltrate and bribe where he owned the U.S. Presidency.

Good people in the DoD Pentagon is what we need to speak up about the CCP infiltration. There are no more good guys remaining. Obama and Biden purged them.

Tucker outright said it last night the CCP is running us.
