Not all revolutions begin in the streets with tanks and guns. Some advance slowly, almost imperceptibly, until a nation is transformed and the public realizes too late that their freedoms are gone.
Such is the revolution now taking place in America. The '60s crowd has emerged from the ideological grave and is about to impose on this country a declaration of dependence in the form of government-run health insurance and treatment. It matters not what facts are known about this "coup," because to those from the '60s - whether they lived in that decade or were born later and adopted its ideology - only feelings and intentions matter, not truth and results.
Why would anyone trust government - which has a difficult enough time winning wars - to properly administer health care? What track record does government have in living up to its economic forecasts and competence in running anything?
But this is about none of that.
This is about liberal Democrats realizing their decades-old dream of complete control of our lives. Every move you make, every breath you take, they'll be watching you. Except, of course, when it comes to terrorists who want to destroy America faster than the liberals do. A different standard is applied to them.

This is the triumph of the humanistic, atheistic worldview. We are all to be regarded as products of evolution in which the fit and the powerful will decide our survival and worth.

How do you fight a silent revolution?
Another great atricle by Cal Thomas.
Start watching those who won’t say the pledge of allegiance, wont remove their hat when a flag goes by in a parade, watch who does not put their hand over their heart when the national anthem is played, and everyone ostracize these people. There are other negative behaviours but you get the drift.
Put social pressure to bear. Don’t vote for these people, don’t listen to their ideas. Complain about their behaviour publicly.You know, the normal way a society remains together, common standards indicitive of belonging, the stuff schools, TV, movies, and msm say is not important any more.
And if that does not work start taking names.
Let’s not be so obtuse.
The leftists have been at work on this since 1910. Each succeeding generation refused to do anything to stop it. Our best shot came in the 1950s when McCarthy exposed all the scum communists infesting the country. Plus we had the battle-hardened “Greatest Generation” in place to drive the leftists out of America. Instead they voted overwhelmingly for LBJ and the Great Society.
So it falls to us to finally do the job that needs doing. Let’s go to work, yes?
That's the minimum at this point. You can't shame the shameless. Lefties are PROUD of their anti-American beliefs. This includes not just the hard-core neo-Communists, but the many sympathetic liberals who claim to see "both sides" of every issue but always, somehow, end up siding with the anti-American viewpoint.
I'm not sure what the next step is but it's not complaining to them about their behaviour. They are happy, they are winning the war.
It's our move and we're frozen.
“I’m not sure what the next step is but it’s not complaining to them about their behaviour.”
The point is not to complain to them- you are letting everyone else, the “normal” people, know that you have found one of “them”.
It’s usually pointless to say “hey, take your hat off when the flag goes by”. But “hey, that guy won’t take his hat off” is a different kettle.
Bring the NOISE!
Leftism’s goal is the Destruction of Western Civilization.
Their every act supports that goal.
It’s usually pointless to say “hey, take your hat off when the flag goes by”. But “hey, that guy won’t take his hat off” is a different kettle.
That probably would work in some places. In the Portland Oregon area you would be outnumbered by "them" in many situations. The Blazer's games most people act appropriately, but I don't think calling out a Libtard would be a good idea.
BTT Cal
Sorry to be a party-pooper, but:
a) How many of those negative behaviors come under the rubric of "discrimination"?
b) How many of those not in (a) will be, should they start to bite?
You are correct, we alredy lost. Guess that means we don’t need to do something.
