"In this battle, rural Virginia may gain allies in the suburbs. In the weeks following their electoral victory, the looney left in the Virginia State Assembly was feeling its oats and considering flexing its muscles through proposals that would override local zoning laws and “bring high density housing, including public housing, to every neighborhood statewide—whether residents want it or not,” as the Daily Caller reported at the time. Supporters of such legislation in the Virginia State Assembly made it plain that “upzoning” was necessary since, “Suburbs are bastions of segregation and elitism.” Abolishing “low density neighborhoods,” we were told, is necessary for “equity.”

The message to Middle American suburbanites was clear: you can run, but you can’t hide. And soon enough, you won’t be able to run, either. COVID-19 put “upzoning” on the backburner, but if the reaction to Trump’s recent comments prove anything it is that Anti-America still wants it."

“Support for the demographic inundation of our homeland by foreigners—the more exotic, the better—is the core element of a naked power grab by a political and economic establishment hell-bent on nullifying the electoral power of Middle America.”

Truth!

Ethnicity need not mean preordained voting patterns, but my suburban corner of Upstate South Carolina has drastically changed in the last 16 years. It may be to late for a resurgence of Middle America.

This author is right on the mark.

I can attest to how this has been going on for years. I volunteered someone years ago to be on my former township's planning committee. I went ape schiff in a meeting over rezoning that had to occur to allow section 8 housing. I emphatically stated that it would bring crime and increase demand on our police and eventually raise taxes. Then there was another meeting on how "we" could talk the transit authority in nearby Harrisburg to add routes to our township. It was suggested it was a "green" alternative and good for people who couldn't afford to commute to Harrisburg. These were Republicans in the meeting. I explained that buses travel in two directions and the ones coming from the city would bring crime. I also stated that as a taxpayer I had no interest in subsidizing someone's commute. If people can't afford to live in our township then perhaps they had no business living there. This of course was not well received. But crime is up there.

There's a mall in the the neighborhooding township, borough actually, and the bus service goes through there. It used to be a nice mall. It's a hell hole now. After the locals in Harrisburg destroyed their mall and chased all the businesses away, they now travel across the river where they have no business being. They are now destroying another mall. It's not even nice to go there. It is polluted with Mooslims and so-called people of color.

Bottom line. The federal government has no business dictating forced association. It negates our right to free association.

Communism is being equal; Americanism is not wanting to be like everyone else and having pride in that fact.

People need to really understand what Communism is and that the liberal left Democrat party is pushing and selling Communism. The Democrats are the New Communist Party.
