My Journey from Frustration to Outrage to Seething Anger
American Thinker ^ | 22 Nov, 2023 | Lewis Dovland

I have had it. My past sense of frustration with the damaging policies of the left has moved to outrage and anger because I’m finally seeing the results of the Big Picture in action. The movement from mere disagreement on key policies to the left’s raw, full-throated imposition of their ideas using administrative actions rather than legislation has placed our society in danger of collapse and the real possibility of a major world war.

A combination of evil psychopaths and craven, effete professors misled and miseducated the bulk of our citizenry, creating cadres of Lenin’s ‘Useful Idiots’ that can be spun up into mobs on a moment’s notice. This, combined with the bumbling ineptitude and ignorance in our administrative state, all add to my outrage.

Let’s look at the list of just some examples of conduct that is beyond the Pale:

- I am enraged that our US Congress continues to pile debt upon debt, with no consequences because it isn’t the politicians’ money (Cloward-Piven). And they can’t be held accountable. They just keep increasing the debt limit.

- I am outraged that Washington absconded with the power vested in the federated structure of our Constitution, which intends for most power to be issued from the states, and then assigned that power to an administrative state, where bureaucrats’ regulations are enforced like laws.

- I am outraged that the Marxism we permitted into our higher education system at blue-chip universities has now created hateful, anti-Israeli, pro-terrorism, Marxist progressive students who blindly believe that Israel must be eliminated.

- I have seething anger about the takeover of K-12 education by leftist teacher unions and school boards that indoctrinate children during their formative years in racism, victimhood, and LGBTQ++ matters, denounce mainstream culture and religion, and tear down...

Aren’t we all. But, with election fraud we can’t vote to change it.

The guy is correct. We are surrounded by ghouls and fiends. Governed by monsters.

I live in a small town.

—> When <— The General Confiscation of All Firearms begins, my friend Tom, a local cop, will probably be on the squad that goes around knocking on the doors of the registered (”Permitted”) “known” firearm holders.

Am I willing to oppose Tom’s unconstitutional siezure; perhaps with force? Or do I NOT oppose my friend by force?Tom’s “a good soldier,” and will follow orders — unless he, himself, rebels and refuses? (Tom is not likely to show up alone.)

That’s what it may come down to...

Over the years, I’ve heard some puffed-up chest thumping on here to this kind of thing. I doubt all those talkers are willing to forceably oppose a well-armed cop squad when they show up The squad will be briefed to expect some Trouble.

(See: Canada, Australia, and England.)

Upside? That would put them all in one place.

Our standard of living, security and freedom are being dismantled before our eyes because people have an unshakable belief that it can’t happen. Too much prosperity has been absolutely ruinous, and history tells us it is so. No matter how good we have it, some people will believe it can be better, until it’s lost.

A lot of people are going along for the ride. There is at least a little of the Après moi, le déluge spirit abroad. "Sure, Social Security is a Ponzi scheme, but I'll be 87 when it goes bust, so why should I care?"

It used to be that those promising utopia were mocked and marginalized.

Now they’re given places of honor and vast audiences of acolytes.

Protip: there’s no utopia.

As Mark Steyn says, you can vote your way in but you have to shoot your way out.
