No One Knew Where it Would Lead

[MtnClimber]

Americans are waking up to the true destination of the Left.

As the saying goes, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Over the past century, we’ve embarked on a number of noble initiatives to improve the world in which we live. But in the true spirit of “never let a crisis (or opportunity) go to waste,” leftists have managed to subvert all these pursuits. Posing as benevolent government “servants” they have graciously offered to guide us through the complex social and scientific issues associated with each objective. We naively let them. We’re just now beginning to see that the course they’ve charted does not lead to the destination we were promised. It leads to a loss of self-governance -- also known as tyranny.

In the 1940s our government decided to get into the disease control business by stamping out malaria. That seemed innocent enough. The CDC was created to accomplish it. The NIH already existed, but apparently one bureaucracy was not enough. But it turns out, eliminating malaria (at least in America) wasn’t enough. The NIH and the CDC have since expanded their missions (research for the former and disease prevention for the latter) to become two of the greatest threats to civil liberties in existence. They are calling for the suspension of our rights in the name of defeating a virus -- which the NIH admits to have helped create in funding gain of function research. Per their guidance, our rights to movement and assembly have been restricted. Our property rights have been put on hold (e.g., the eviction moratorium). It’s all being done in the name of the “public good.” There is a term for letting the benefits of the many outweigh the rights of the individual -- mob rule.

Sociopaths lusting for power over you. What could go wrong?

[marktwain]

The title is wrong.

Lots of people knew where it would lead, or, at least, the general direction.

They tried to warn us. The John Birch Society is a good example.

They were ridiculed and were claimed to be conspiracy theorists by the Media, which was completely dominated by Progressives.

It was not ignorance which brought us here.

It has been a planned take over by the Progressives, which turned out to be just another power-made group of Leftists.

[Salamander]

I knew and so did most of us here.
The left is sinister by definition.

[marktwain]

“Power-mad”, but “power-made” seems somewhat appropriate.

Little too late, America has been diluted with idiots ! After they steel Virginia our fate will be sealed.

[The Truth Will Make You Free]

His premise is WRONG. Leftist know where their filth leads. He also neglected to mention anything with voting. His hope for the election of 2022 is a pipe dream without a revamping of the election process at all levels and steps to ENSURE a true and honest vote.

[BobL]

We know where it leads. It leads to the situation for whites in South Africa, where the entire country is about as safe for whites as South Chicago, with a large political party (in South Africa) calling for the extermination of whites.

We're not there, yet, not by a long shot, but that is the end game here and that's also why I unload on people that tell me they'd rather Democrats in power than RINOs (who are idiots, but certainly do not want the South Africa outcome, whereas at least 40% of House Democrats, the 'Progressive Caucus', clearly do).

Like it or not, we're now, basically, a 3 party country:

1. Conservatives who have always wanted this country to be strong.

2. RINOs, who are very close to FDR Democrats in that they want a strong country, but are are idiots regarding how that's done, but still get it right, at least half of the time.

3. Democrats, who want to end this country as we know it consider white people to be a plague.

Sorry, but I'll choose RINOs over Democrats any day, and those that say otherwise are either trolls or even dumber than RINOs.

By the way, here's a picture from a very nice neighborhood in South Africa. For you RINO hunters, are you SURE you want to live that way, with your house being your cage, and still not fully protecting you?

[SaveFerris]

(I knew and so did most of us here.)

Yep

[Jim Noble]

After they steel Virginia our fate will be sealed

A lot of people here still imagine they form a majority, and that some correction of voting procedures will stabilize the situation and restore safe, sane, and constitutional government.

This is incorrect.

Virtue and prudence are always minority positions, and they require education and enforcement to prevail.

Universal franchise voting, however accomplished, is the death of any healthy nation, and this one is not exempt.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***The John Birch Society is a good example. ***

I remember them and a popular radio song from around 1961 mocking them.

I found their literature to be definitely Pro-American.

[Kevmo]

Sorry, but I’ll choose RINOs over Democrats
***That was how we got in this mess. And it’ll be people like you who enable the continuance of this debacle.

[BobL]

“That was how we got in this mess. And it’ll be people like you who enable the continuance of this debacle.”

...and so the Democrats, led by AOC, get us out of this mess.

How about telling us your BRILLIANT plan?

[Kevmo]

How do you figure that about the democraps?

My brilliant plan is to secede. From my home page:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Secession

It's time for us to jettison those who reject our national values because there's no changing them. Time to secede.

We should extend the invitation to secede on a county by county basis.

While we're at it, since we'd be forming a new country, we should extend the invitation to counties in Canada and Mexico as well.

Note that this option is becoming increasingly popular.

Nice to dream about succession, but good luck getting there if the Dems in DC don’t want it to happen (which will be the case).

And if Texas or any other state tries to separate on unfriendly terms, they will learn just how much power the federal government now has (and not just military). It’s not the 1800s anymore, not by a long shot.

Given those FACTS, the only realistic option that freedom-loving Americans have is to keep Democrats out of power...that simple.
