NO! Let’s not call it “Spygate”

“Spying” is merely a means to an end, a tool. The end was treason, conspiracy, and sedition to overthrow a duly elected government. Those are capital offenses.

Maybe “spying” is easier for the uninformed voter to understand, but it seriously diminishes the severity of the true crimes committed.

Here we disagree, and you posted why many of us will call it Spygate:

Maybe “spying” is easier for the uninformed voter to understand!"

The independent and probably uninformed voters will probably decide the 2020 election.

They don't spend hours on FR debating/nuancing what to call spying on a Presidential Candidate.

They call it spying.

Look at how the left wingers in Congress and their mediots went ballistic when AG Barr called it spying. Their focus groups understood what Spying was.

Last but not least, Rush Limbaugh has a great handle on what to label tricks/stunts/crimes of the left, as shown below:

While you're entirely factually correct, the game has moved on to the 'execution' stage. Yes, it's a double entrende; the obvious, but also the need to condition people to address our collective date with reality.

A big motivation behind promoting universal suffrage was the intentional dilution of critical knowledge, maturity and decision skills. Manipulated by a controlled media that enjoyed total information superiority, the result is the obvious voter ignorance we see today.

Now, the question is, how do you prepare a people who have been locked into an artificial environment to accept the traditional cathartic process steps that necessarily follow a civil war?

Let us consider the most economically advanced and politically stable countries, including the last time a major government/political system was challenged and/or changed:

- US - 1865
- UK - 1688
- USSR - 1992
- Spain - 1936 - Germany, Japan, Italy, France - 1945
- China - 1949

In each of these instances, significant percentages of the native populations died. 5, 10, 15+% are considered the norms. And, as we can see from the list, it's not ancient, medieval history either. No, in fact just as recent as 27 years ago in Russia.

So let's go back to my original point above: how to prepare and condition the US people for what needs to be done to the conspirators? This is the real key - at this point we're so far beyond re-stating factual components that patriots need to consider how to (en)force the issue as to capital punishment.

Consider Trump just started using the term "treason" in his tweets. What really needs to happen is for conservative social media to begin the process of preparing 'normals' about traditional measures utilized to enforce law & protect legitimate government.

Your motives appear to be good. But you’re falling for one of the big talking points of the anti-Americans: to remove particular words from our speech. Lately the target is the word spying.

Don’t let the low IQ progressives fool you.

We’re talking about spying and we’re going to use the word SPYING.

You make a good point. This happens all the time.

I still don't understand about "Watergate".

WTF did water have to do with anything?
