Moving toward old style tyranny: The black cars and agents come in the night and the target disappears. Time to read The Gulag Archipelago.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

The Alinsky media is all about calling us crazy if we say what the real situation is. The Soros machine cunningly forced the “conservative” media to buy into this tactic by getting them to one-by-one ridicule the “birthers” who saw that 2008 was a coup in which foreign and domestic enemies illegally and through the use of crimes and threats installed a foreign enemy combatant into our White House. Once the “conservatives” swallowed the line that “birthers” had to be wrong because coordinated criminality on the part of the government could never happen, they made it safe for the government to do whatever coordinated criminality they wanted, since anybody who noticed and/or reported it would be hoist on their own petard. The only people still qualified to say anything are the “crazy birthers” - who have been maligned and libeled by everybody else.

To get us back to square one where the truth even matters, a whole lotta people who bought into the Alinsky attacks on “birthers” need to fess up and start over. That will be the turning point in this nation, and we will not be able to turn around until that happens.
