The Last Stop Before Thermopylae
American Greatness ^ | February 23, 2021 | Max Morton

Posted on 02/24/2021 9:25:37 PM PST by CheshireTheCat

...Like it or not, we live in a police state, controlled by an increasingly authoritarian regime with near-total electronic surveillance. The national security apparatus views conservatives and free-thinkers as domestic terrorists, and there are now more military deployed in our nation’s capital than in war zones overseas. If America were any other country, it would be considered a non-permissive environment—not a free country.

The pundit class recommends midterm elections and unifying the GOP as remedies, but they ignore the real elephant in the room—representative government is not representing us. While conservative and independent voices are censored and banned from the community square, their elected representatives cower behind their desks and make sweetheart deals with the new regime.

We are facing a new post-justice, post-truth society. We won’t be able to debate our way out of it, vote our way out of it, or tweet our way out of it. No one is coming to save us. If traditional America wants to be free, it will have to stop living in the past, get up off the couch, and take action....

I believe this author was on Bannon's show yesterday or the day before and talked about this essay.

Funny, Bannon seems less and less like a nut to me, as Biden seems to me more and more like a demented, senile fool. This whole extremely sordid affair is really getting dicey, and interesting. Asterisk is like an albatross around the necks of the Democrats. No wonder Nancy Pelousy was so keen on facilitating the use of the 25th Amendment. Xerxes would be proud.

Many still believe the FBI only goes after bad guys, and they cannot grasp that the national security apparatus now views them as the enemy.

The FBI has become America’s KGB. Its job is to estimate, monitor and control risks to the State and state organs of power, as well as maintain its own power. Part of that means controlling, and compromising, politicians, such that none become a threat themselves. Its why a corrupt, demented old hack like Biden is front and center.

Good advice, but we need more class traitors, which is to say, members of the elite with some independence who detest this illegal regime. The American Revolution would not have taken place without men like Jefferson, Washington, and the New England merchants who decided they had enough of arbitrary Crown actions. They had the means, the contacts and the position to organize resistance.

The best advice is get organized resistance started among the states. More 2nd Amendment sanctuary statutes, including threat of arrest for Federal officials trying to enforce unconstitutional edicts. More discussion among like-minded states about coordinated action, like shutting off pipelines, closing interstates, etc. Make the filthy regime have to threaten to send in the army.

And most of all, don't forget that the Spartans were defeated at Thermopylae.

I always thought Bannon was the absolute best thing Trump had going for him. That’s why he was forced out.

The main point is this... quit wasting your time and effort on “protests” You can protest all you want, but it’s not going to make ANY difference. If you REALLY want to make a difference, focus your ire on the right targets. Don’t fight their goons! Fight the people who pay the goons!

Ask Jewell (of course he’s dead, an early grave after they ruined his life despite him being innocent.) Ask Randy Weaver’s wife who was shot in the back(unarmed, and holding a baby) by lon yoriuchi(of the fbi). Ask the the victims killed by whitey bulger with the help of an fbi agent. Oh yeah! the fbi has such a sterling reputation! Trust me, if the fbi asks you if you are thirsty... If you answer that question, you’ll end up being persecuted in a sham court in a sham trial for “lying” to them. They’ll contend that you couldn’t possibly be thirsty to a corrupt judge in the sham court.

Problem is well-stated, as is the means.

But the end is unclear. He says nothing about achieving county-by-county secession; not even a line about the political goals this “movement” seeks.

No one is coming to save us.
No one has the power.

Michelle Obama called publicly for a sitting president to be permanently removed from Twitter and he was, the very next day. That’s power.

Never underestimate these brutal people.

Psychopaths can wear the mask of charm, but now the masks are completely off.
They have what they wanted and no longer to need to pretend.

The fbi and now the national guard are both the private armies of the democrat party.

The political goal of secession is to re-establish legitimate Constitutional government in those counties that secede. It’s not complicated, really. It just takes courage and fortitude.

It is too late. They have won. Talk is worthless. We either take them down with us or walk to the ovens like good little citizens. Take your choice. I would prefer to turn flyover country into Masada.
They are going to come for us. They have an unquenchable hatred in their gut. We need to make it expensive on their part.
In ancient times you killed every man, woman and child of your enemy to be sure they never arose again. What makes you think that this will be any different. Resistance will be lethal.

The FBI has become America’s KGB.


Wrong agency. Not KGB. Stop looking East. Look West. Where all the money to destroy the US is coming from. At who owns Biden. The CCP’s MSS: Ministry of State Security or Guoanbu. The folks who are experts at State surveillance of the masses at the individual level. The FBI has become America’s Guoanbu.

There is a question I have that I don’t believe was addressed by the author, although perhaps in my quick read I overlooked it.

What is to prevent the Leviathan from simply using civil asset forfeiture (or civil judicial forfeiture) to take all of our assets under the pretext of alleged involvement in the crime of insurrection, including our income, savings, and everything else we possess, and literally starving us to death? If that sounds improbable, think about it the context of the future reality the article describes.

Who is coming, and when?

I would like to believe that. Truly. I just don’t see it.
