There Are No Guardrails On The Left
American Partisan ^ | January 27, 2021 | Matt Bracken

Posted on 01/27/2021 7:57:20 AM PST by Travis McGee

America is entering a terrible period in its history at an accelerating pace, now that the Left has taken control of all the critical reins of power in the government, the mainstream media, social media, and big tech. Unfortunately, history teaches with laser clarity that there are no guardrails restraining the behavior of the Left when it is so empowered.

Normative legacy Judeo-Christian values usually provide self correction against outrageous excesses from the Right. Even when conservatives have the power, they restrain themselves from, for example, committing full-on genocide. An example of this is seen in the late 19th Century, when it was completely within the power of the American government to implement a “final solution to the Red Indian problem,” but the government and the American people, then grounded in Judeo-Christian values, did not do so. (This is not to excuse the execrable and destructive Indian reservation system, but it was not genocide.) Likewise, America could have utterly destroyed Germany and Japan after 1945, but we did not do so. The harshly punitive Morgenthau Plan proposed by FDR’s socialist Secretary of the Treasury for post-war Germany came close in its intention, but it was not implemented.

By comparison, the secular atheist (and now frankly insane) American Left has no self-correction mechanism. (Examples of contemporary Leftist insanity: transsexuals welcomed into the military, biological boys ordered onto girls sports teams and in girls locker rooms, etc.) This Leftist insanity is anything but unprecedented. From the French Revolution, to the Paris Commune, the Bolshevik Revolution and through all the horrors of 20th Century Communism, the Left has proven that when it is unchecked, it will drive at full speed straight off the cliff of civilized norms of behavior into totalitarian systems of guillotines, Gulags, forced starvations, and killing fields.

In 2021, having figured out how to rig elections, and then ban any discussion of their election fraud, the American Left has taken full power. Conservatives are battling to preserve tiny free spaces that are being targeted and obliterated one by one. Even the former president of the United States has been silenced, and is about to be tried in a Senate impeachment kangaroo show trial. After the January 6 U.S. Capitol “Reichstag Riot,” Washington D.C. is left under de facto martial law and military occupation.

Today, U.S. military servicemen and women are being forced to take a new loyalty oath, swearing that they do not belong to any “extremist groups.” The definition of “extremist” will soon expand to cover any groups that are not explicitly “woke” and Leftist. Any resistance to this leftward lurch will be regarded as sedition, insurrection, and treason. The ending of the social safety valve of free speech will predictably result in violence, which will lead to more draconian crackdowns against the Right, and this societal death spiral will accelerate at dizzying speed.

The only three possible outcomes that I can see are:

1. The Left being stopped kinetically, as in Chile in 1973. This is not possible in 2021, because the military is fully cucked, “woke,” and tilting hard-Left. Battlefield warriors are being replaced by social justice warriors. Americans holding traditional conservative values are being intentionally driven out of the military. This is the true purpose of forcing the Left’s trans insanity into the military, transforming it into a hard-Left organization whose leaders and troops consider the Constitution and Bill of Rights to be obsolete parchments penned by white racist slave owners. Don’t look to the military to stop the current slide into Communism, they will be fully on board with it.

2. An eventual full-out Communist victory leading to a Stalinist “deep winter” end state like Cuba or North Korea. This is unlikely because A. the conservative Right is too well armed, and too well trained in military special operations to be defeated kinetically, and B. the federal government is too weak, with an American economic implosion looming as trillions of digital fiat dollars are created out of thin air.

3. Economic implosion leading to a collapse of federal power, a breakdown in food and fuel distribution, leading to a civil war that will resemble Weimar Germany colliding with Former Yugoslavia and Rwanda at the same time. This new civil war, unprecedented in its horrors, might eventually lead to some type of pyrrhic conservative victory, but only on top of the ashes of the American constitutional republic, and at an enormous cost in lives lost and property destroyed.

My current vote is on #3, but the outcomes will vary greatly region by region. In any case, it’s very unlikely that we’ll still have all fifty states operating under our current constitution a decade from now. The best advice that I can give to anyone reading this is to move as far away as possible from Democrat-run cities, especially when these cities are located in Democrat-run states. There will be pain enough to go around, but it will be the worst in the suburban guerrilla warfare battlefields around our major urban centers after the food and fuel deliveries stop–and they will stop. History is crystal clear on this point.

Questions for everyone: How much food is grown in your zip code? In your county? In your telephone area code? Your state? Where does your potable water come from? Will it be dependable when that water delivery infrastructure runs across warring territories?

Since, according to many news sources, Fauci helped fund ($4 million ) the Wuhan Virus Institute, then you should call it what it is :
The "Fauci Chinese Frankenvirus".
Interesting that the Chinese are experiencing another virus breakout, this time in Beijing ,
no wonder that they are hacking into "Big Pharma" to find out recent research developments on the virus.
I thought that they already had a vaccine, although only recently found that it is only 50% effective.

" This led to the creation of an entirely new type of scientific research made possible by advances in gene technology,” he said.
“It was called gain of function virus research.
The idea was to replicate in a lab what had been done with those ferrets — to take the virus and manipulate the genetic code to make it stronger and powerful.
The virus would gain new function, hence the name.”

For the next three or four years there will be no military invasion because our enemies know to let things escalate internally, destroying the ability to resist them from within. Once enclave reality sets in THEN the military process will arise. Right now, biden’s masters are plotting the invasion of millions of ‘refugees’, otherwise known as peasant invaders. The influx of millions of peasant invaders will give rise to vicious gangs arising from the sea of dependent peasants. Be prepared to kill when these demonic forces confront your neighborhoods.

If America has economic disruptions /food shortages - who will “collapse” first - America, or its enemies, like China? That is my lingering question. There is much interdependence globally.

China seems to be hanging by a thinner ‘thread’ than we are.

Americans seem the more resourceful. Many are prepping, and so forth. China is more at-risk - is my impression.

I think it will be more option 2, because the conservative patriotic right won't use all those guns and armed resistance now would be small groups against a Marxist controlled military with all its weaponry. The Left even wants sporadic incidents so they can crack down even harder on the whole country and make anything that doesn't celebrate their thousand year rule a thought crime.

BTTT.

Matt;

A good article!

Food...

We raise some cattle and grow a little food in Kansas so a good place to be. (Located in the “Big Red Gash: across the middle of the country!)

Regarding this point is what everyone grows in their own gardens. If you have not bought seeds and fertilizer you need to buy them while you have a good selection. Seed Supplies are dwindling and you will end up growing turnips and radishes! (Thanks Diana for letting us know about the seeds!)

My impression as well. A wise US or Russian or Indian president, might be tempted to give them a little nudge...

I was never really a full-on prepper. Always thought that the farm land in Texas was more of a real estate play, even though it’s set up for SHTF. Well, time to get real.

One thing I’ve neglected is the well pump. It’s only 2 hp, but draws 12 amps at 208 volts (and more at startup). If diesel deliveries are unreliable, that turns into about $10,00 bucks worth of solar panels and batterie if I want to run it when the sun isn’t shining. Which I do.

Also need to learn how to make my own primers as well, I guess.
