Those who do not know anything of history will gladly accept fugazy land.
BTTT
Kunstler’s first paragraph nails it.
“But that could never happen here “. How many times have I heard that when we see Lebanon, the Balkans, Etc.
Powerful article.
It can, and it will.
Yes. But his last paragraph is, in my judgment at least, far too optimistic. I hope he's right, but I fear he's not.
Kunstler has perfect pitch and has hit all the high notes.
>> Kunstler’s first paragraph nails it.
... and he continues to nail it down in PP 2, 3, 4...
and the final nail:
What has the blob (or blobs foreign and domestic) got left after those biggies. They can gin-up their Antifa mobs again. This time, though, they might be met by a million Kyle Rittenhouses. They can stuff every ballot box in land, and surely will try with all their might and all their wiles. But I wouldn’t want to be a blobist the week after a fugazy election. They can signal their beloved “newcomers” to blow up bridges and power stations and shoot up a stadium or a mall here and there, but it won’t save their blobish necks. A lot of bad things are likely to happen over the year ahead, but it looks like America will finally refuse to become Fugazy Land.
EXCELLENT ARTICLE

The bolded part is where I share a suspicion. If it looks like the election doesn't go "their way", or lawfare, or "locking in" the status quo, the blob will try to destabilize the country.
Is that term somehow related to ‘wheredafukowi’ ... ?
For me, this scenario is the only meaningful basis for supporting Trump -- i.e., that the Leftist/status quo "blob" would not accept his being elected again and would proceed to destabilize the country for real.
My own fear is that, upon being elected again, Trump wouldn't proceed to do the hard things that are necessary to save what's left of this country (e.g., actually rounding up 40-50 million illegal immigrants and deporting them) but would, instead, get co-opted by said "blob," and revert back to his first term stance, which was a lot of sound and fury signifying very little, when all was said and done.
Meanwhile, were that to transpire, and what's left of this post-iceberg country sank further beneath the waves, all we'd hear from dimwitted, deluded Boomercons on sites like this one would be nonsense to the effect of "Trump knows what he's doing" and "trust the plan," etc., etc.
Insofar as, at this point, I see that scenario as being far more likely than not, I'm not optimistic. Put simply, I would welcome the aforementioned "destabilization." It -- or, rather, the (potentially violent but ultimately successful?) counter-response to it -- is the only thing, to my mind, that could possibly reverse this country's slide into full-blown NWO tyranny.
Our "constitutional system" has clearly failed at this point. With our very liberty being at stake, we need a different path forward.

We’re the Fugazy!
Thanks for the ping; post. Article BUMP.
I misremembered...
