At this point in time with all that has preceeded if we still have to have a conversation with you about who “they“ are then you’re not a serious person and not worthy of consideration.


Name 3 members of ‘they’ and be very specific about what ‘they’ are doing right now in the political scene.

Maybe you are being played.

Have you been asleep?

Been happening a long time but ramped up under O and his fundamental transformation of America.

They include the unelected bureaucrats that are able to create laws that negatively affect our economy and our liberty.

They include propagandists MSM who outright lie and spread conjecture and speculation for those they oppose while refusing to acknowledge and report on a multitude of stories of the corruption of the Left,.

They are the paid and sometimes violent protestors who have been shown to not always know what they are protesting.

College professors that have eliminated free speech at our universities and are systematically brainwashing our kids; financial mavens who have taken over investment companies like Blackrock and have blackmailed companies into embracing DEI bullshite; appointed and elected judges who have executed a program of lawfare. Do you see it now?

1. George Soros - He is funding District Attorneys all over America who are not prosecuting violent criminals.

2. Larry Fink - From AI: BlackRock founder and CEO Larry Fink initially championed Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, including Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), but has since rolled back emphasis on DEI. Following political pressure and a shift in strategy, BlackRock removed explicit DEI language from its 2024 annual report and Fink's 2025 letter to investors, instead focusing on attracting talent from across the world and creating an inclusive environment to avoid groupthink. The firm also merged its internal DEI team into a broader "Talent and Culture" department.

You can see that Fink has backtracked, probably under intense pressure from the Trump Administration.

3. Letitia James - Conducted lawfare against Trump.

4. Adam Sciff - Conducted a smear campaign of slander and lies, using his position as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, he repeatedly lied to the American people about having seen proof of Trump’s guilt in the Russia Collusion Hoax.

5. Alejandro Mayorkas, Previouly Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) - He was complicit in allowing billions of dollars of American taxpayer money to be used to finance illegal immigration.

I could go on and on. I could list a hundred. I anticipate your argument that some of these are out of power and do not fit your criteria of “right now”, but obviously when the Republicans hold the balance of power the crimes of these people will wane, only to wax again when the pendulum swings their way.

"They" are the Marxist Commies a.k.a. the Democrat Party, their useful idiots, and the money that controls them. They walk among us.

Complete unadulterated bullshite.

"They" are leftist critical theorists attempting to socialize the US. Virtually every single instance of "they" employed by the people you cited comes after a specific example of that behavior.

the covid shut down in texas lasted 3 weeks and that was 2021, 5 years ago, half a decade ago why are you still struggling you've got your social security disability! i know that's not much but at least it's something!

here's a thought roger instead of pretending to live in one of the highest cost of living states you could pretend to live in a state with a lower cost of living!

good luck!

Maybe you’re just being dense on this subject or most likely trolling.

Well if you named off a bunch of right leaning commentators, "they" would probably refer to people on the opposite side of the political spectrum if I had to guess. Post an example of one of them using the word "they" and we can try to figure it out.

(Quote) " It was David Carr, a London-based Libertarian, who provided the memorable nickname for Transnational Progressivists when he called them "Tranzis." He explained, "A lot of us have known for some time there was something wrong in the world but it was difficult to pin down and put our fingers on. It was something that has no face and no name. Like fog it swirled all around us but not being corporeal we lashed out in all directions, landing blows on nothing. It was like an itch we could never scratch." We used to call these people "the left," and still do I suppose, but many of those pushing this apparently "left-wing" agenda seem to be high-level statesmen, the wealthy and the heads of multibillion-dollar corporations. Their behaviour cannot be explained away in terms of the Marxist "Class struggle." If the Tranzis are indeed leftists, they are so only in the sense that a frog was once a tadpole, having emerged long ago from its pond and jumped on to dry land. " (Quote)

Here is the "they", not that it will matter to those who are strategically naive, or worse, knowingly seek to obfuscate the competitive political dynamic that is currently in play toward service to Transnational Progressive Ideoloy (DEI). The above is a quote from Ralph Maddocks as he examines the 2001 John Fonte Essay re Transnational Progressivism.

The Dem Party/Deep State and the GOPe are Transnational Progressive. They are the "they".

Can you be more specific? That term is about as meaningful as "Fascist".

That's all very well and good, but how do we actually identify them when the War comes? Are they the people with the tattoos?
