The Germans did not overthrow the Nazis.
The Russian people did not overthrow the Soviet Union.

VDH seems to think that we will vote our way out of this mess. Recent history indicates that won’t be allowed.

We’re in trouble.

As John Adams said, people don’t have to be willing to risk their lives. They need only be willing to DESTROY their “comfort”. And that is what fighting back does. It’s what happened when I fought wearing a mask on a flight from Denver to Chicago. It got ugly, but I was always polite.

Ultimately, I won because the pilot said, as they were yelling at me, that we were to wear masks except when eating or drinking. I had brought a big bag of Costco shelled peanuts and nibble on them for the entire flight. Without a mask on. I followed the letter of the rules.

It’s also fun to drink stuff through your mask. :)

I’d argue against that if we still had an independent press. But we don’t. Too many people only get their news from the mainstream media. And the MSM will sugar-coat every last bad thing the Left does.

So yeah, you’re correct.

Correct.

That’s the problem with eggheads. They think the rules remain the same and we can achieve a victory or a rollback within them.

The rules have changed. That path is closed, unfortunately.
