“How Should We Treat the Elites Who Clearly Hate Us?”

For starters, STOP CARRYING THEIR WATER. If the Dems want to raise taxes on the rich, we need to JOIN THEM. Let the Limo Leftists fight their own battles. In particular, I’m all for raising the tax rates on the upper income types and ending the cap on Social Security earnings.

Most of the people who now benefit from the above low federal taxes are Leftists - so let them deal with the consequences of their politics.

Restore the founding principles of the Declaration of Independence and enforce the Constitution. Vote and take back power to the people.

Things to do, just off the top of my head:

Work for yourself, if you can. Hire no one to work for you. Always be working on building your skills to make/do/build/repair things because someone will always need you.

Live below your means. Stay out of debt. Work on reducing your tax base. Stop feeding the beast!

Get your kids OUT of public school.

Attend Church (when Mother Government ‘lets’ you) and/or have a private Bible Study with a few trusted friends.

Move OUT of a blue state, or find a red enclave in your state.

Register as an Independent if you can in your state. Vote accordingly, though they’re ALL going to be lying to you. :(

Keep your state government free of liberalism.

Looking at you Michigan.

The republican elites in Congress and across the land don’t like us:

Fox News host Tucker Carlson said Thursday that the Republican Party leadership doesn’t “like their own voters.”

“This really is the main problem, on the right anyway. The people who run the Republican Party don’t really like their own voters,” Carlson said on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” “And they especially don’t want the voters that Trump brought,” Carlson continued. “Trump brought the party’s ranks noticeably downscale, ‘from the country club to the trailer park,’ as they often sneer. And this horrifies them. Many Republicans in Washington now despise the people they’re supposed to represent and protect.”

Carlson claimed that “socially anxious white professionals” feel contempt for “working-class people who look like them.”

“So if you want to understand the hatred, the real hatred, not just disagreement but gut level loathing and fear of Trump — in say New York or Washington or L.A. — you’ve got to understand that first. It’s not really Trump; it’s his voters. The new money class despises them,” Carlson said.

Supporting the GOP after 40 years of betrayal is the height of insanity. The GOP party needs to die and a new party take its place.

The GOP leadership hates patriotic Americans and it is long past time to return the favor.

WE do NOT have the time to sort out the good from the bad. Let the current GOP that allowed itself to decay from within to just die on it’s own. We will be paddling sand against the tide.

Meanwhile, the Republican National Committee re-elected Ronna Romney McDaniel, the niece of the head RINO himself, Mitt Romney, to be its leader for the coming four years:

Trump will be very successful in starting a new party, IMO.
The current GOP has caused the voters to lose faith in them.

Oh I was a politician at The Siege Of The Capital!

They walked through the halls with their American flags
We knew they wanted to talk to us about fraud
So we bravely fled or hid behind a chair
We would have prayed if we believed in God!
“The siege at the Capitol!
In the front lines of this terrible battle.

At a personal level, treat them either with contempt (if you really don’t have todeal with them) or sympathy. The latter like you’d deal with a really, really slow 4-yr old that has passed the point of being able to outgrow or mature beyond their violent nature and are also too dumb to understand what they are babbling about.
“Let’s endorse socialism — Have you read Solshenytzen ? (sp?)
“Whites are racist — Do you understand that word?
“I identify as a whatzit — And, I am the queen of England, kneel knave and beg for mercy.”

They are uninformed.

Throw sand in the Leviathan’s gears however and whenever you can. Direct confrontation against the power of the police state is suicidal. Become the “Grey Man.” There are ways to deal with totalitarianism without exposing one’s self and family unnecessarily. And destroy your TV!

Elites? No. The world leadership is working out of the playbook described by Nietzsche as “slave morality”.

Irreconcilable differences require either war or separation. Compromise of rational principles in order to achieve dialectical synthesis is a rejection of virtue of integrity.

I had a long talk with a young relative who joined the military recently.

I told him clearly its been social-engineered and politicized well beyond what it was when grandpa went to war in WWII, or uncle George in Vietnam.

Don’t ever be a part of oppressing Americans, because there are evil, power-hungry people who will want to push the military in that direction.

Half the people in America know that the other half pretty much hates them. This half (the upper half, with control of most of the wealth and virtually all the power) considers their neighbors who own guns, go to church, and voted for Donald Trump

The elites are far less than half of the population, and Trump got far more than half of the votes cast. What they do is rule by propaganda and divide and conquer tactics. These people have destroyed the family to divide men and women. Presently, they are focused on appealing to a certain minority of leftists and minority groups through identity politics. The best non-violent solutions are an economic boycott of Big Tech, "big box" stores, and Chinese manufactured goods. This also lends itself to (legal) tax avoidance. Politically we need to focus on state and local politics to push election reform, and get the 34 states needed for a second constitutional convention. Don't look for someone else to rescue you. Look in the mirror and start there.

By re-electing them back to be masters over us. We need to re-elect Graham, and Collins and McConnell. We need to keep the majority, blah, blah, blah. Yeah hows the crap working out?

Our so called leaders speak
With words they try to jail ya
They subjugate the meek
But it’s the rhetoric of failure...

People need to quit sucking up to rich people. I know a ton of miserable, horrible rich people. I would much rather play catch or scrabble or tennis with someone who isn’t impressed by money.

With disdain. Ignore them and tell them to shut up and go away as much as you can.
Don’t donate to any of their campaigns. Doing so is an endorsement of them.
Live free, or die.
