Will we go quietly into the night?
American Thinker ^ | 21 Dec, 2020 | Carol Brown

The left wants to make sure we’re silenced for good, never to rise to power again. And they’re on the threshold of pulling it off.

We’ve been passive all year with few exceptions.

We’ve absorbed one shock after another with little pushback. We’ve watched the rise of totalitarianism in disbelief as it has taken hold in the form of lockdowns, riots, censorship, and election fraud.

We have, for the most part, been obedient as a handful of “experts” told us what we can and cannot do after the coronavirus swept in. We’ve tolerated demands to close our businesses, schools, and churches, not leave our house or have contact with aging loved ones, among other demonic edicts.

We’ve stood silently by as a “reimagined” police force issued citations, forcibly removed people from public spaces, padlocked doors, and made arrests because someone dared to live as a free American. We’ve even been physically attacked while expressing support for the police, as the police stood by and did nothing.

On the heels of coronavirus lockdowns, came riots across the country as law enforcement was told to stand down. And they obeyed.

Then the left pulled a poison arrow from their quiver and stole the election in their final coup attempt to deny a duly elected President his second term (here and here).

And nary a soul went to jail for any of it.

There is nothing virtuous about putting on your own blindfold for your executioners.

Your statement is true and correct, the left knows that their only weekends is that the masses shall in a trickle that turns into a flood shall rise up against them, We are their nightmare.

I like that the trickle that grows to a flood. This will be a nightmare for politicians.

75 million+ patriots and their families wield significant economic power that can be easily turned against the Dems/CCP and their Big tech enablers.

Just go Atlas Shrugged on them. I mean, we don’t have to find a secret gorge. We can do it from the comfort of our own homes.

Decouple from legacy social media. There are alternatives like Parler and Rumble.

Sponsor mom and pops. Either locally or through eBay, vs. Amazon, et al.

Insist on non-chinese products an materials.

Dump Hollywood, broadcast and cable TV.

Take vacations to free states and countries.

Dump your Android phone, get an iPhone (Apple people may be flakes, but their gadgets are more secure).

Feel free to add your ideas.

Learn to live off the land. Move out of the cities. Learn to sail or know someone who does.

If you won’t fight for it, you won’t get it — and some would say you don’t deserve it.

This is Darwinism at it’s simplest and clearest.

Now, some ARE willing to fight for it — to oppose those who would become rulers over you.

But many are not. They’re comfortable and complacent. They’re willing to quietly go along to get along.

They’re being Darwined out of the gene pool.

if America must rely on the GOP, it is dead, Jim.

The GOP should die first.

All those FBI reports warnings of home grown terrorists perhaps had our response to their coup in mind at the time..

Screw that.

Secession merely allows them to maintain control over whatever nation they are running. It may not be ours, but it's still a nation. That is just rewarding them for their efforts.

No. We need to crush them and eliminate them totally.

I have been wondering the same thing. Riot, burn, steal, assault, murder and you are an activist. Try to stop it and you are a terrorist.

We have so far, to the delight of the tyrants, Democrats, Communists, and Globalists.

Our former governor and his cronies used Telegram for ‘confidential’ chats, and a disgruntled cabinet secretary started taking screenshots of their conversations, which ultimately resulted in his resignation.
