If you catch 100 red ants and 100 black ants and put them in a jar, at first nothing will happen.
But if you violently shake the jar and dump them back on the ground the ants will fight until they eventually kill each other. The red ants think the black ants are the enemy and vice versa - when the real enemy is the person who shook the jar.
This is exactly what’s happening in society today. So the question we need to be asking ourselves is who’s shaking the jar, and why?
Great analogy. Thanks for passing that on.

Here’s a similar analogy.
When discovering a large wasp nest in the woods, I will take a very long stick and poke at it until it drops to the ground. What the wasps do is attack the end of the stick nearest the nest. Sure, some will buzz me, but they do not see me as the actual threat.
As patriots, we are the nest. The stick end attacking us is the BLM/Antifa pukes. However the persons holding that stick are the elites. The white elites using racism as their tool. Many see the BLM/antifa ones as the enemy. They are, but the real source is the racist power hungry elites trying to ruin the nation and bring in communism.
I personally think we should consider learning Spanish in order to view our situation from the perspective of neighboring countries as well as allowing us to talk to 13% of our neighbors who currently form their opinions of us without us having any input.
I think the ants need to start comparing notes.
Black Ants Lives Matter.
I think this is actually pretty common knowledge. The history of the world is subjugation of the common man by a small powerful/violent pseudo elite. The formation and success of the USA, based on a government that serves the public instead of a public that serves the government, destroyed that paradigm.
People who are of little value to others always want to control those others and they are in hyper-rebellion trying to get us to kill each other off so they can harvest the production of the common man.
The free enterprise system is the only one that rewards people for being of service to others. This liberates and elevates the average person of goodwill.
The shallow, narcissistic, greedy, envious people of the world, actually a pretty small minority, remain at war with the rest of us intent on reaping the rewards of the people of service.
The misery won’t end until we recognize and remove the evil people from positions of authority via voter integrity and restore our Constitutional Republic.

That line would make a great addition to the story! Consider WW I, for example. The average Frenchman wanted nothing more than to tend to his work, and provide for his family. The same goes for the average German.
Yet their leaders had those poor souls attacking each other with machine guns, poison gas, and bayonets.
From what I recall I think the red ants are fiercer and reorganize quickly.
Not that I want to mess with your analogy.
Maybe a jar of honey badgers?
yeah, ok but... election integrity will never return unless we kill the ones who cheat.
We have to KILL them.
Ants taught me an important life lesson about liberals when I was very young.
I was at a picnic when I saw a tiny black ant looking for food. I squished it.
A little girl sitting next to me saw my murderous act, and told me, “It had a life and you took it away.”
I don’t remember her name, but it might have been Karen.
Who’s shaking the jar
MSM/uneducated slackers/looters/race baiters/black racists/white guilt/hate American/no rules mob.
and why?
Free things/fake revenge/alter history/socialism/trained to hate.
“The red ants think the black ants are the enemy and vice versa - when the real enemy is the person who shook the jar.”
Except it is based on a false assumption.
Their side no longer believes in God, His supremecy over our lives, or the fact that we are to be governed by His laws.
Our side is still clinging, more or less, to those concepts.
So it is a false assumption that underneath it all, we all want the same thing or our actually on the same team.
We no longer are.
But nice try!
> So it is a false assumption that underneath it all, we all want the same thing or our actually on the same team. <
There is some truth in that. In many cases, the average person on each side wants nothing more than to be left alone. But their leaders shake the jar, and a bloody war erupts. WW I is a good example of that.
But no analogy is perfect. I suppose there are cases where even the average person on one side is okay with starting a mass slaughter. But I must admit I’m struggling a bit to find a good example of that. The American Civil War, maybe?
