I am where you are. We have a manipulated population. Unless a change is made to toughen our weak society there is not hope. Events drive this stuff though. The left was on a much stronger trajectory after 2008 and fumbled badly. Something can happen to change our direction. I am just not hopeful because we are not operating under any sort of system of law now. The lawless are in charge.

If they can keep everyone the fattest, most passively entertained, least used to hard sustained physical labor and being outdoors in all of human experience, human nature and recorded history seems to indicate that nothing much will happen.

I think part of the solution is that people should teach their children well - At Home.

They’ll do it themselves. Now that they feel they’ve defeated us they’ll start turning on each other in the scramble for power.

Power, Pride and Money drive people to do all sorts of evil and self-destructive things.

Sit back and watch the wheels turn...

The war is on. Now. It is said that soldiers talk tactics, but professionals talk logistics. Our vaunted civilization is as fragile as an ice carved swan. It is important to be armed and to never surrender our arms. But it's not all about firepower.

Consider, however things like supply chains, our dependence on just-in-time inventories and the transportation networks that cannot fail to keep them going. Infrastructure disruption - power, water, telecom - are all vulnerable. Let your imagination be your guide. Do what needs doing and KTF.

Demographics are destiny.

Groups like the John Birch Society tried to tell us, didn’t they.

I’ve become somewhat disabled in some ways, too.

In my experience, people can do a lot more with their brains than with their bodies, anyway.

From a Biblical perspective I would say we are nearing the dispensational change from the Church dispensation back to the focus on Israel. Known as the great tribulation period.

In order for that to happen, America’s reign as superpower would need to end and a new superpower to take her place.

Commonly referred to as the new world order.

No, has to be secession. We can’t win elections when the game is rigged against us, and soon the entire weight of the federal government will be aimed against us, using the latest “terrorist coup” as an excuse.

There are over 6 million people in the Baltimore/Washington metro are and thanks to just in time delivery probably not two weeks worth of food, maybe less. Move up the coast and the urban density only gets worse. It would not take a real major disruption for those places to descend into total anarchy. Many of them are most the way there already with the grocery store shelves full. Situation is similar on the west coast only their food supply lines are much shorter. Their major weaknesses are water and electricity and natural gas.

“The following quotation has been attributed to Tytler, although it has also been occasionally attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville:[19]

“A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.
The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to complacency; From complacency to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.””

The Soviet Union fell.

Never thought we’d see that day.

There’s always hope but I don’t think we’ll be seeing it in our generation.
