This new conservative fighter has to rid themselves of their self-righteousness about the kind of tactics they will have to use to take on the left’s machine.


I am not sure I disagree, but there is danger of becoming them if you use the same tactics...…………………...

That is absolute bull shit

You would one of those huddled on the arena floor cringing at the coming assault of the hungry lions

“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed;
if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly;
you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.

“There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

-Sir Winston Churchill

Same means, different ends.

How do you think we won WWI and WWII? Making nice with our enemies?

So did the USA Army vets come home from WWII and become fascists? LOL. Your argument is stupid, frankly speaking.

Not if you - metaphorically - bring a knife to a knife fight, a gun to a gun fight.

It is about what is appropriate and effective - like Bruce Lee using real moves instead of sterile kata.

You make a good point.

I must say, my impulse to fight is as visceral and as volatile as anyone I’ve met.

But in fighting, never elevate the father of lies as Alinsky did, both explicitly and in his deeds.

I think you understand this.

A great commanding general would say the same.

Those who disparage your post are probably well intentioned, but a fighting spirit doesn’t have to be a blinder.
