The key word in that book is democracy.

**************

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.

It's a Communist Revolution in play. For years and years the Democrats were content with a long downward slide into Socialism. Even Reagan only slowed it down. Along comes Trump and for the first time was actually turning the tide. The Swamp went into panic mode and decided the time for the Revolution has arrived.

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.

Fast forward to 2021, and America is becoming a totalitarian dystopian state.

~~~

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.

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.
