New York Times telegraphs the left’s intent to use the January 6 anniversary to repress conservatives
American Thinker.com ^ | January 5, 2022 | David Zuckerman

With tomorrow the anniversary of the January 6, 2021 Capitol incursion, the New York Times is preparing the soil to plant seeds for a crop of hatred and repression of ordinary conservatives.

The title of the unsigned editorial in The New York Times, January 2, is "Every Day Is Jan. 6 Now," but a chilling assertion in the fourth paragraph justifies the inference that The TImes means: "Every Day is Hunt Down Conservatives Day Now." The fourth paragraph of this editorial, that should be a passage in a political thriller, not bizarre, commentary on political reality opens: "It is regular citizens who threaten election officials and other public servants[.]"

The following paragraph is no less execrable in mindset: “In short, the Republic faces an existential threat from a movement that is openly contemptuous of democracy and has shown that it is willing to use violence to achieve its ends.”

Remember, The Times is referring to "regular citizens," not to the violence committed by Antifa and BLM in the cause of societal transformational reform to the Repressive State. We must not forget that those store windows boarded up before the 2020 election were boarded up anticipating leftist violence against a re-elected Donald Trump. The left is the source of most political violence in the country -- and now the left's megaphones promote the canard that Middle America must be held down to keep from resorting to violence? Republicans, where are your denunciations of the calumnies from the left?

Convincing evidence that this twisted Jan.. 2 editorial is not to be believed appears in the sixth paragraph, which calls the Pelosi "Jan. 6" House select panel "a bipartisan committee." Pelosi's panel is an expedition into political ex parte-ism.

We seem to be a Stalinist country now.

As bad as Democrats are, I hate RINOs with an intensity that should only be reserved for the Devil.

RINOs are the reason for the woke clown world we now endure. They were willing to turn a blind eye to election fraud in the state legislatures because of their petty hatred for Trump.

I pray these traitors are sent packing in the primaries. If their actions in 2020 are not enough for that to be done, then we are truly finished.

Sounds like antiFA to me...

Stalin’s playbook seems to have the original pattern adopted by the Democrat Socialists. Intellectual purity, you know. Only a matter of time until they put the gulags in place.

Unfortunately there is no Siberia large enough within the continental US to contain all the number of people who may be “removed” as a “public safety” measure. Maybe they could work out a deal on Greenland?

...contemptuous of democracy...

Misinformation. Should be changed to 'socialism'.

The big question is, what are we going to do about it?

The solution to leftist fascism is contained here.

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

Cling to guns and the Bible, develop networks off the radar with trustworthy people. Live off the radar as much as possible. Don’t be bitter. Better days are coming.

Alaska alone is not big enough, and there remain escape routes through Canada.

Of course, Canada is fast becoming its own gulag state, so frying pan into fire.

They keep conflating “republic” and “democracy”.

We ARE a republic. We are NOT a democracy.

Being a threat to democracy does not translate into being a threat to the republic.

Liz Cheney decided she would rather be a “good”(ie obedient) nazi rather than an enemy of a tyrannical state
