This is War and We Intend to Win [My Fellow Conservatives -- This is Zero Hour.]
Mother Jones ^

Posted on 08/16/2017 4:56:10 PM PDT by SarahPalin2012

. . . In less than two minutes, the anti-racists had unleashed a flurry of destruction. A mosaic of smashed glass covered the floor. Blood polka-dotted the ceiling. Three people required medical care. . .

Before the Charlottesville incident, some here wanted not to be associated with "White Nationalists". Others at other times, did not want to be associated with Milo or other conservatives -- we can tell ourselves that we are different than those above. And it's true.

However, the Left is not destroying the above for being nationalist or being a homosexual. The truth is the Charlosttesville group were protesting the removal of General Lee -- it is a reasonable protest. Milo attacks feminists and Muslims, and he aggressively is pro-free speech. The Left attacks them and these issues are our issues. This is a time to unite in a war against the Left. It is not a time to take comfort that we are not white nationalists and that we are not gay and be okay while those on the front lines at this time are being bearing the full brunt of the Left's attack. Let's not kid ourselves, if we are against illegal immigration, if we denounce Islamic Terror, if we ask for more responsibility from all groups in our society, then we are next. We can win if we fight together. The enemy is very great. However, God is unquestionably on our side. We will win if we fight together. And the time to fight is now.

These jackyls on the left don’t have the majority of people on their side like they think. However, I have to say they do have both political parties on their side and apparently the police.

Ironic, huh?
The only people who stand up and support police are being fed to the wolves by the same police departments yet they protect their killers...ANTIFA and BLM.

Yes, the enemy is very strong. She’s talking about Satan.

I wonder about this. You know how leftists bring everyone under their umbrella, so they have Muslims and feminists on the same side? They seem to attribute, or project, that same habit onto conservatives, leading to acceptance of the idea that all conservatives must support racism, since all leftists support feminism.

No. The most important propaganda ploy right now, in fact the key propaganda ploy, is the effort to tie conservatism, classic liberal constitutionalism, and its Judeo-Christian moral foundation, to the KKK. Doing this relieves them of needing to actually debate principle, and it makes the very foundation of the country philosophically off limits to anyone who falls for their sleight of hand.

And it absolves the DNC for its own historical guilt.

Classic racism equates skin color with culture, and culture with character. “Neo-racism” of the kind the left promotes, does the same thing albeit in reverse. The very principles that set men free are labeled racist, and the fascists on the left get away with it. The principles that make it possible to live good, productive, morally decent lives are labeled “white privilege” when in fact they are available to anyone who will accept and live by them. Its a propaganda sleight of hand, and there is no shortage of people who fall for it, and quite a few people on the supposed “right” who take the bait.

We are going to be set up again and again, until we learn to not take the bait, and to stand together. When confronted about Confederate paraphernalia, just remind them that these are Democrat monuments. We play for the other team.

Notice another aspect of the “sleight of hand”. Milo would be “alt-right” because he is conservative on some issues, but obviously not on social issues. But by labeling KKK as some kind of “alt-right”, Milo gets lumped in with them for propaganda purposes. We have to avoid playing their game.

constitutional conservatives don’t engage in identity politics. we don’t chant Nazi slogans, and we don’t carry the Confederate Flag.

The KKK should climb under a rock.

That’s quite silly. If a conservative believes that General Lee’s statue should not be removed from Lee Park, and attends the rally for that reason — the Antifa will not make distinctions whether you are in fact a White Nationalist or a classical conservative. You will get hit with the fire extinguisher (see a few posts below this one which links the Joey Salads video going undercover into the Antifa).

The Antifa are anarchists and they are a destructive mob. They will not reason with you that you are a reasonable person. Once they’ve gotten more power, you will not be be even given a chance to explain your “Christian moral foundation”. If you need proof, go to a Trump rally where there is the Antifa, and try to reason with them. But watch out for the bicycle lock and the fire extinguisher.

Antifa will attack you regardless. But do not get in bed with “white nationalists”. You are taking the bait.

Identity politics creates faction. Faction is deadly to republics.

You’re right that we don’t do those things. But constitutional conservatives may very well be for keeping General Lee’s statue as he was a great man and general and someone who honored God, and was a patriot.

And we are against the current brand if liberal feminism, and Islamic terror. The left says that those are the positions of a White Privileged Sexist Fascist, and they are violently attacking, as a man who supported Trump against his neighbor was executed as reported in the British media (not American media). The executed man we can surmise was a regular Trump supporter. If you want to stand on the sidelines comforting yourself that you are not a racist, I think you will be surprised when the Violent Left don’t make the differentiation.

The truth is the Charlosttesville group were protesting the removal of General Lee -- it is a reasonable protest.

That was the occasion of the rally.

It wasn't necessarily the reason why individuals and groups came.

It wasn't necessarily the purpose everyone there had.

For example, the occasion for Woodstock was a rock concert.

But it wasn't everybody's reason or purpose for going there.

We have identity politics whether you want them or not. Whether you believe in it or not. Identity politics is the reality of our nation.

No, you don’t join the Nazis. But not all who were protesting the removal of General Lee’s statue are Nazis. It’s something a constitutional conservative can support very reasonably. Those who were there were there to for this reason, not to promote White Nationalism. You’re not a Nazi or a White Nationalist of course, but the Left has declared war on all conservatives, not just those groups.

If where you live, you were to organize a rally for Patriotism and for Constitutional Conservatism, and advertised it as such, and it was the whole reason, purpose, and occasion, the Left will still counter-protest your event, and depending on your location, they may be violence against you. You think that Unite the Right had a hidden agenda and that's the reason they were attacked. Well they've attacked Milo and Ann Coulter. If you put yourself out there, even as a reasonable mainstream conservative, you will be attacked.
