One of the earliest books I’ve read when I was a teenager with an interest in politics was Alexis de Toqueville’s “Democracy in America”. I didn’t understand all the concepts in the book at the time, but nevertheless, it was an interesting read to say the least.
The key word in that book is democracy.
Due to the mass indoctrination in the public (and private) school system which replaced education and critical thinking, Americans now believe that the USA is a democracy. That’s very far from the truth.
The WASP founding fathers of America even said something along the lines of: we are giving you a Republic IF you can keep it.
Fast forward to 2021, and America is becoming a totalitarian dystopian state. One of the main culprits for this situation is universal voting rights working in tandem with mass immigration from the third world.

The key word toady is kleptocracy.
We are a republic in name only.
Dystopian, dysfunctional, delusional, deceiving, dastardly, demented individuals in the republic. Other than that it’s a beautiful morning.

The Republic died in 1865 at the Appomattox CH.
Other than that it’s a beautiful morning.

It is for Democrats. They love the chaos. There’s opportunity for them in every crisis.
Communist Revolutions do occasionally fail like in Chile and Spain, so it is possible to defeat the left. Article V is our best way to do this.
Cacacracy.

The genius of it is to maintain the illusion of elected representatives. Speaking more in theory, but the alternative to extreme authoritarian totalitarian control would be shadowy totalitarian control. On some levels, it’s more difficult to manage, because you are controlling the politicians, but on the whole, that’s much easier to manage than a top-to-bottom police state.
Short but powerful piece.
This ends badly no matter how you slice it.
As they say, all politics are local. This all starts at the local level, up to and including school boards, which we are seeing now.
Show me a ‘Republican County Commissioner, City Councilman/woman, State Rep/Senator” and I’ll show you a person that MAY have wanted to be elected for legitimate reasons, but then turns into a greedy POS that uses their position to get rich. Then toss in their handlers in the County/State GOP apparatus and we continue to get more and more of the same.
Donald Trump challenged that and turned that upside down. His wealth afforded him the ability to not have to go to the RNC with his hand out. His statements and language forced the MSM to give him free publicity whenever he wanted it. He played them.
But, they rallied and stood shoulder to shoulder, so they could get rid of him and us. Next year will be interesting.
Thank you for putting into words a feeling I have had for a long time.
The problem is that politicians today want to “make a difference.” They are not there to be good stewards of the public trust, they (or their backers) want to be the movers and shakers.
That’s one of many problems. So much of it starts at the local level. Folks vote for one of your buddies after years of sitting around and talking about all the great ides. One day he decides to run. He’s your boy, you vote for him. Pretty soon your boy is making backroom deals with developers, builders, etc, he’s getting paid and you’re getting screwed.
You approach him one day and ask...WTF?...he responds, big stuff going on, lots of jobs coming, lots of development, can’t talk about it.
Guess what? Those folks continue to vote for him. He becomes “powerful, influential” and everyone is wondering...WTF happened to him?
You're welcome. Time will tell if the RATs crossed the Rubicon too soon or not. Stealing a landslide election means their Revolution either crushes patriotic Americans or the RATs lose everything.
Those who think they’ll rebuild the world per their utopian vision forget how often people cannot or will not rebuild after the ideologues burn it all down.
The Presumed Rise after the Fall of Civilization

The Left’s PLAN:
1- Burn it all down!
2- (undefined)
3- Utopia Baby!
The 17th Amendment didn’t help, either.
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded - here and there, now and then - are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck."
-Robert A. Heinlein

The left wants to burn everything down, then rebuild to a fantasy utopia with them in charge.
But once you have burned everything down, you have nothing left to rebuild with.
Venezuela is a good example.
