Time for another great American (and world) history lesson from American Minute.

If the demoKKKrats win in November, standby for American Revolution II.

Don't be a "good Kulak!" Forewarned is fore armed!

I lived in San Diego in the early 1980’s. Balboa Park had an awesome history museum and one month they had actual working antique guillotines lined up in one of the courtyards.

(Of course they were locked so no one could hurt themselves. Safety First!)

It was absolutely chilling to be near them; very scary, imposing, unnerving - but quite the efficient way to clear out a lot of (perceived) traitors for the times.

“Tricoteuse”, a new word I learned a few weeks ago.

Antifa is actually extolling the guillotine and using it as a prop in their theater of the absurd.

They are not even hiding their true intentions.

Sadly, the more he showed benevolence to the unruly rioters the more they were embolden to commit violence.

Most of what I know about the French Revolution is from “A Tale Of Two Cities”.

One thing which always seems surprising is how well organized it was.

Not what we’ve got, instead we have a mostly sanitized Inquisition. One movement was bottom up, the other was top down. We’ve got the top down variety going on here.

>> According to Jean-Jacques Rousseau, when she was told the people did not have bread, her reply was: “Let them eat cake.” <<

What’s the purpose of continuing to teach this nonsensical slander?

[BlackAdderess]

The globalist elite are beside themselves over the rising (and peaceful) populists. The globalists are doubling down on getting the rabble to fight amongst itself. The only elite in the crosshairs is Trump and various others like Sen. Cotton, who dared to side with the rabble. This is the Inquisition, and Trump is basically Queen Elizabeth I.

It seems more like we have top down and bottom up.

Anyone who doesn't affirm the party line mantra of the moment is attacked in social media, attacked on the street and either ignored or condemned by the ruling elite.

What did Senator Cotton say or do? I thought he was on our side for the most part.

[BlackAdderess]

Globalists today = Inquisition era Catholic Church trying to hold onto power. This is not about liberté, égalité, fraternité” but is instead about oligarchs holding onto power. Top down, not bottom up. You want to see bottom up, go to Tiananmen Square.

[TheDandyMan]

That’s a laughably bad analogy.

[BlackAdderess]

Sen. Cotton is in the crosshairs of the so-called Lincoln Project along with Trump as part of the “Trumpist ilk” (populists) that they are trying to stamp out. What is interesting is that they have taken their name from Abraham Lincoln, who was no friend to the slave owners and instead sided with the slaves.

[BlackAdderess]

It is sadly true.

Yes, I misunderstood your comment in post #11. We are the "rabble."

I thought you were referring to the likes of Antifa, BLM, globalists and other assorted elitistists as the rabble.

[BlackAdderess]

The rabble is being prevented from uniting to address their tormentors by divvying up everyone into various grievance groups which are then being pitted against each other. It’s all about social control.

[BlackAdderess]

The protestors are rabble. The leadership is not.
