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?
These categories are not mutually exclusive.
I see different regional solutions consisting of one or more combinations of these outcomes.
Are the commies pukes as dedicated to their cause as patriots are? Let’s see.
Whining is what the left does best aside from increasing taxes.
Hi guy, I hope you are doing well.
What happens if TX seceeds?
A committee was formed today to exercise the Lone Star State’s right to break from the Union according to it’s constitution and admission articles to the U.S. Congress for statehood.
If SC holds a referendum on secession, and it is approved, all bets are off.
Bloat. If you can.

I ran across this site recently; it may be of some help.
Just read about Ricky Vaughn. Chilling.
True, add them. You are correct.
“My current vote is on #3, but the outcomes will vary greatly region by region.”
Good column and comments on secession:
https://raconteurreport.blogspot.com/2021/01/aint-gonna-be-no-seceding.html
How much food is grown in my area? Not enough. However that ratio can be altered a bit...
For water-Maybe buy a cistern-2500 gallons and collect rainwater from the roof? Then treat/filter it.
Option #3 with the ChiComs, UN & Mexican cartels coming in for the final kill. They won’t be able to resist it. The ChiComs need the farmland.
“China seems to be hanging by a thinner ‘thread’ than we are.”
I could be wrong, but it seems to me that China could step back to 19th-century agriculture and distribution more quickly than we could.
I think there could be a secession without fighting.
It would be like a deranged husband beating his wife because she asked for a divorce.
The left hates conservatives, so to them it will be good riddance.
The secessionist states can sell it as a divorce, with each side better off without the other.
History may not repeat, but it does rhyme.
Interesting article.

If the Left really and truly “won “ an election -this might happen. However they didn’t.
All of our problems originate in corrupted, local electoral precincts in deep Blue urban centers. These NEED to be cleaned.
Part of “re-districting” projects, BTW, is to create regions and social environments permitting unfettered and unhindered electoral Fraud.
Think parts of cities where Republicans are feared to tread. No bipartisan voting observers. If any Republican observers, or even voters show up,they are threatened. This is the beginning process of turning a Red state purple.
This article provides a glimpse into exactly this process going on in Philadelphia in 2009
https://www.heritage.org/commentary/voter-intimidation-new-black-panther-style
There are more of “us” than “them” A whole lot more
Its all kayfabe. Its what they want you to believe, its what they want you to “feel”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe
The left is LARGELY an illusion supported by media propaganda and created by fraudulent electoral processes
“honest” votes for Biden were 30-35 million. At most.
What the left has done, ever since the 1984 Reagan-Mondale blowout-(and Mondale was a “moderate” Democrat!)-is to start electoral fraud programs in the largest states to turn them from Red-to-Purple-to Blue. They realized they had no future otherwise. It started in California and New York
This last election cycle local Texans managed to turn it around at the precinct level-their RINO Governor not withstanding
Extreme involvement in your local precincts and making sure paper balloting on ELECTION DAY, with hand counts and recounts in a transparent fashion and setting with open audit trails available to the general public, among other measures-are key.
Its dirty, tough work and initially confrontational
with the existing perps. As the above article illustrates, it will be dangerous. But it beats the heck outta the
alternatives -which are bearing down like a runaway freight train
The left has focused on corrupting our local electoral process. They focus on the deep urban centers. This process of corruption is very active presently in Georgia, using Atlanta as its base, the last 2 election cycles. This process is seditious.
We the People have no future otherwise. These people INTEND to “rule”
The Red parts of the country just need to avoid the “violence trap” presently being laid by the Left-who would rather see a Civil War or “crackdown on the Right” than have to deal with us properly reforming elections locally
Politicians lying about each other is Constitutionally protected speech.
But one of the peons? One of the dirt people lying about one of THEM?
Federal crime!
The memesters of the day, who chanted "Ma, ma! Where's my pa?" at Grover Cleveland rallies? Let's find and prosecute their descendants, who unfairly kept their inheritances which should have been stripped for their horrible crimes!
you wrote: “...Think parts of cities where Republicans are feared to tread. No bipartisan voting observers. If any Republican observers, or even voters show up, they are threatened...”
There it is right there. I am one of those (REP) poll workers who’s ward is in a let’s say ‘mixed’ community.
As an experience poll worker (actual title: ballot inspector), folks seems to keep the focus on poll observers, while the focus should be on poll WORKERS. These are the folks they CANT throw out - although they may try to give them meaningless jobs. Where I work, they have to have a repub and dem both there to count ballots.
It is up to the GOP or whatever opposition party to ensure that EVERY polling place is manned with at least ONE member of their party. In the case of a poll worker, that person must RESIDE within that voting ward.
NOTE: some states have provisions in the event one cannot be found in that ward. One may be assigned from a different ward nearby. Check your state rules on that.
However, it most cases, there is at least one GOP voter in every ward. Please do not fall for the media stereotype that ALL folks of say - a certain color vote blue. They do not. It is simply a matter of finding these people and asking them to assist on election day.
Yes, the pay usually sucks. But then again, so does military pay. I have no direct knowledge of this, but it would not surprise me if the DNC compensated some of their folks working the polls (think unions, gov employees, etc). But there’s no reason the GOP could not do the same thing: Demand equal number of WORKERS at each polling place, and put folks on payroll if you have do.
Also, it’s not just about being on the scene. It’s about knowing what to look for, how to respond, and knowing others have your back if/when things go south (training). Fact is, the dems are better organized at this then we are. The GOP is about image and raising $$ for ads (air wars), but we are absolutely AWFUL mustering and supporting ground troops for elections. Fix this, else all of Dixie turns blue.
I’ve lost count of the times I’ve reposted this on FR and other places:
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3871759/posts
If republican poll workers and/or observers are threatened, then a means of self-defense and/or strong deterrents will be necessary, and the time has past for Real Americans to shy away from such realities.
All of this of course, is working under the assumption that we can actually vote our way out of this mess, which in this author’s opinion - is doubtful as best.
just my $0.02

Holy horse manure? DVE’s? No mention of the “peaceful” protests by Burn Loot Murder or Antifa, Nooooooooooo.
Government working on a narrative that excludes anyone other than “We the People”.
Speaking of Guardrails.
