It is a sad state of affairs that you even have to make that statement openly to make your valid point, and sadder that the Left has succeeded in making many men care only for their own personal affair and nothing more.

It isn’t an accident that the Left has focused on destroying men and masculinity, and it isn’t an accident that I explicitly singled out men who “care for their own personal affair and nothing more” in the preceding paragraph.

The Left fully understands that strong men are an impediment to their tyranny.

That has been just one of the goals of the Left, to divide people up into small groups, whittling society down into small tribes of family and friends, where there is no societal cohesion and people are only concerned about what happens to themselves.

When that happens (and is now apparently a reality) these small groups of self-centered “nobody else counts” groups will be destroyed one by one, because there is nothing beyond a tiny group that will come to their aid when they are attacked.

Sad. The Left has succeeded in this brilliantly to the point there are people who think they are somehow winning by pulling into a shell, which is what they want. The Left is all about Tribalism, small groups who care only for themselves.

Surely not E Pluribus Unum, many become one.

It is Ex uno, multis, where one becomes many.

And that is the goal of the Left.

They cannot destroy and conquer us when many of us become one. But it is no problem for them if one of us become many, which is Tribalism, the result of trying to retreat into your small group of family and friends for “safety”.

In life, you are one of three things, I have been told: A Wolf. A Sheep. Or a Sheepdog.

The job of a Sheepdog is to care for all sheep, not just those in your immediate herd.

And that is because a Wolf is an indiscriminate enemy. If you don’t care that a Wolf is attacking the nearby herd because “it isn’t YOUR herd”, then you aren’t a Sheepdog, because YOUR herd is ALWAYS going to be next.

And it boils down to this: If you aren’t a Sheepdog, you are either a Wolf or a Sheep. There is no other choice.

And many, including some on this very forum, have made the choice to be a Sheep, even if they want to appear to wear the skin of a Sheepdog.

And in that, they become the unwitting allies of the Wolves, and in their own self justifying mode, will eventually become Wolves themselves.

Divide and conquer.
A tactic as old as warfare itself.

The Sheepdog no longer protects those Sheep exposed for their collaboration with the Wolf to remove the Sheepdog. You're also assuming this woman on the train can only be a sheep. She's an adult who could buy a firearm like Bernie Goetz did and use it as she saw fit. "A Liberal is a Conservative who hasn't been mugged yet."

Our country was founded by great men who departed Europe and the European mindset. They didn't try to "fix" it.

The Left are those of a matriarchal society and wish to force it on others. The Matriarchy is not to be trusted. The last two years have exposed the millions of people who embrace government mommy telling them how to think and behave instead of being an adult and thinking for themselves. We have an obligation to let them grow up because coddling and allowing a state or perpetual adolescence spawns fools and deadly policies.

Let’s also look at the women. Are they worth saving? Their behaviors-their smartphone addiction, their quickness to demonize normal male behavior, and their obesity-are driving women away from them.

Your words are true. So what do we do?

Tribalism? Yes. I have a tribe. Tribes are self-selected non collectives. I will not sacrifice one second to a communist whether individual, group or nation.

Well stated, and wholly appropriate. Thank you.

I don’t know about you but my heart is broken that we are on a forum talking about losing our freedom and I for one feel helpless. You are right about folks pulling back into their own little world because we were pushed there slowly over time and I don’t think most realized it. Where do we go from here?
