A House Divided Cannot Stand
The Houston Courant ^ | October 1, 2019 | W. Hillman

Posted on 10/02/2019 1:50:11 AM PDT by The Houston Courant

Everywhere you turn progressives are pushing the idea of diversity. It’s in our school curriculum, in every TV show and movie, and now even in corporate commercials. But within the era of Newspeak, what is now called diversity is actual progressive dogmatic orthodoxy. The only permitted diversity is in the narrow, acceptable progressive doctrine. It is acceptable to hold any opinion on the number of human genders if that number is greater than twelve. The current politically acceptable number is one hundred twelve. To say there are only two genders will get you send to re-education camp, or diversity training, and subjected to the two minutes of hate.

The progressive movement today is a bastardization of what it once was. A good friend who is Dean at a prominent university is one of the first people I know who described himself thirty years ago as a progressive. Today, he shuns the term, saying it has been corrupted.

Professors lose or are denied tenure and teaching positions for thinking outside of the approved dogma. Social media posts outside of the acceptable progressive doctrine will get you gagged and shut down. In true Kafkaesque form, you will not be told what your crime is, what the rules are, and who are the judge and jury. My account was suspended months ago for a post I made on the Federalists position on gun control. Almost every day, someone I follow is de-platformed and suspended for posts that question the progressive doctrine. At the same time outrageous posts encouraging the killing of Republicans, beating people who don’t follow the approved doctrine, or in the case of Peter Fonda, who said, "Donald Trump's 12-year-old son should be put in a cage with pedophiles", are all perfectly acceptable.

Why are we working so hard to continue pretending we can share a country with them? They clearly do not want to share a country with us.

I have no interest in sharing a country with those who seek to abridge my constitutionally guaranteed freedom. To hell with those filth.

If Trump is re-elected I'll guarantee by the second year of his term, possibly the third at the latest this nation will be in an open and violent civil war. The Dems are pushing for it.

It needs to come much sooner than that. This is an active coup attempt and the Left is counting that Patriots will not fight. If Trump is removed from office, the people need to remove the government. The country is divided and needs a purge. Traitors who are active conspirators against the USA need to be tried by peoples' court and executed.

Agreed, now if they would only dress in red and march in a straight line, the resolution would be easy (Kudos to Cosby on this one:

COSBY: At the beginning of every football game, a referee comes out and then, he flips a coin.
Suppose way back in history, if you had a referee before every war, and the guy called a toss.
Let's go to the Revolutionary War.
Capt. Hartman(ph), to the British, this is Capt. Soble(ph) to the settlers. Capt. Soble to the settlers, this is Capt. Hartman to the British. Call a toss, there, British.
British call heads.
It's tails. You lose the toss, British; the settlers win.
What we do, settlers?

All right. The settlers say that during the war, they will wear any color clothes that they want to, shoot from behind the rocks and trees and everywhere; says your team must wear red and march in a straight line.

If a poll was ever conducted with the question “Is our two party system working” ? The response would be 90% negative. What is being employed by This so called coup d’ etat against Trump should not be viewed as against Trump but an impeachment of our constitution. .

Everything the man has attempted to get done has been blocked by a radical group composed mainly of members of the democrat party in top leadership legislative and judicial branches of government who view the constitution as an obstacle to their concepts of government intrusion on individual liberty guaranteed by it as they advance their policies.

It’s long past time conservatives have turned the other cheek. There’s no such thing as reaching across the aisle to those who hate us.

Two sexes.

Gender refers to language.

Stop using Newspeak.

They are indeed.

Ain’t that the truth.

Exactly! I’ve had that argument with progs countless times.

I got sent by my boss into the women’s room at a time no female workers were on duty. She had lost her phone chargers and thought they might be in there. The women have fifty percent more room and three gigantic stalls. We men have less room, one lone urinal and a stall.

Modern equality. That’s diversity at its best. When the left really wants something they just do it, and let us find out.
