We and the Left are now two nations within one country. This is undeniable. We are now so different that we cannot even agree on what a country is, or on the merits of a country having a border. The number of people who still say, "I just don't care about politics" dwindles. It is still possible to hate both sides — but it is getting hard to be indifferent and still be breathing. How many people can just take or leave infanticide? How many people are entirely flexible about the idea of the government having authority over anything and everything, to experimenting with our fundamental demographics, or to giving up fossil fuels cold turkey? The abyss looms large beneath us.
We conservatives have let this ideological cancer metastasize for far too long for its excision to be simple or painless. For too long, we have been patient with outrages we should have fought to reverse. We have let our opponents secede incrementally from us for decades. We have been tolerant and patient...we have given up our civil society, our political representation, and our freedoms one by one. Our maladies won't be fixed by delicate adjustments now...Either the cancer wins, and kills us all, or we defeat it — and we accept the scars. Let us not pretend they would not be hideous scars. And let us not pretend it would not be a deeply barbarous and bitter surgery.
The titanic nations of the Left and right are rising en masse — flexing their muscles and snorting menacingly at one another. We cannot get out of their way. There is no safe part of the country, nor any genuinely safe haven left in any other country. This is a global conflict. We have run out of frontiers.

So, what do you see 5, 10, 20 and 30 years in the future?
Have you perhaps noticed the arc of the insane left the past 10 years? Do you honestly expect them to stop pushing for the next thing on their agenda? Do you except them to suddenly renounce their totalitarian ways, embrace freedom, liberty, capitalism, free speech, 2A rights, and Western Civilization and say “Heh, heh, we were wrong all these years. These are the pinnacle of human achievement. We were just kidding.”
Conservatives have accommodated everything they have done for five or more decades, we’ve been patient, we’ve been “tolerant.” What has that brought us to? Infanticide. Communism. Trannie child molestors in public library children’s hours. Refusal to accept the outcomes of free elections. Efforts to undermine the Constitution.
Please look in your crystal ball and tell us how this ends.
Just looked up “Unintended Consequences” on Amazon. You don’t see many books with almost all five-star reviews. Thanks for the recommendation.
So do you think we would have 30 liberal “pockets” (i.e., city states) surrounded by an enormous conservative landmass? How can that work?
But that is also its Achilles heel, if we can expose them to the truth about socialism/communism.
It is a "con game"--a swindle, a fraud, a dishonest trick...and they have been "conned."
“The number of people who still say, “I just don’t care about politics” dwindles.”
Maybe social media and the 24 hour news cycle makes it seem like that, but it doesn’t seem like it has translated into eligible voter turnout, at least as far as I can tell. I mean, voting is a pretty low bar for people who supposedly ‘care about politics.’

That is my biggest fear, too. So many below the age of 40 or 50 have been thoroughly inculcated in leftist thinking and they are the ones who will dominate the next 50 or more years.
Most people think freedom is worth fighting for.
And BTW, the effort by the socialist/communists won't fizzle out. At least not until they win.
The war being waged to destroy Western Civilization is a two-prong war. Attack from without and within.
The attack from without is the immigration horde.
The attack from within is the infiltration, indoctrination, brainwashing of Americans where they live.
We have to fight on both fronts.
You may find it hard to get a copy. I got it on eBay years ago for about $9 for a hardback. I went back a few years later figuring to buy a copy for a friend. I couldn’t find one for under a hundred! Maybe things have changed. I haven’t looked recently. :-)
All from a feral mob wanting to steal a few iPhones. Who’d a thunk? “The butterfly effect” in action.
We’d have to control Media, Education, Hollywood, Entertainment, Government Agencies, Unions, etc. etc.
China will invade us before that happens.
I fear the 2020 election will be a bloody mess. If TRump wins it could spark violence and murder, assassination and coup. The Left will seize power like the Bolsviks of old Soviet Russia. Then, CWII will start—A war between states, New England/California Pacific coast vs Texas, the south and Midwest. It will not last as long but it will take many more lives. Estimate 4 to 6 million deaths, 25 ruined cities, the lost of America as a superpower. Only winners, China and Russia.
“Those Leftist family members enthusiastically vote for people who want control over your life. They ...do not respect your rights and are quite happy to see you suffer...and have your vote cancelled out by illegal immigrants.”
Oh, no doubt! However, their lack of the ability to love their fellow man does not cause me to lose my love for them. It will be ugly, leaving horrendous scars.
“All the leftists have to do is wait us out.”
Very true and they know it. Millennials have said “Our generation cannot wait for your generation to die off.”
There were 2 sieges of Vienna, though.
‘The cops’ in my area are 20/30 something young thugs, for the most part.

They purposefully recruit the thug types because they want the thug type who will not question orders and are on a power and ego trip. They are not very bright.
It won’t happen for another 20 years or so. When white people are a minority in the U.S., things will get really ugly. Baby boomers will be dead and gone, so they won’t be faced with the choice of having to take their own side. Most of them would choose death anyway. The conflict won’t be explicitly racial, but, like politics today, it may as well be.
“This conflict either comes within the next ten years or the vast majority of those who want to be FREE and understand what’s at stake will die off.”
The poorest are now the most likely to be obese and are the most entertained poor people ever, things that have never happened before. The global elite’s smartest move would probably be to just keep us steadily sliding down the cultural slope like we have been. In 100 years maybe no one will even be able to imagine getting off the couch much less caring about the state taking their guns.

Except one of the two sides wants to completely open the borders to anybody who wants to come here. They simply do not recognize or believe in nations and national sovereignty. That is one of the biggest differences between the two sides. I'm not sure which is more important to them - wide open borders or murdering babies.
Whoa, I hadn’t looked at the prices before until you pointed that out: 10 New from $156.65; 42 Used from $73.82. Yikes!
