There are always new words for the same ole, same ole, among man and his self love and preservation. “Nothing is new under the sun.”
Song of Solomon.
X22 posted this at the bottom of his page, with a wonderful rendering of the man who said it.
” In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot. “
— Mark Twain

I think before mass institutionalized thinking (or, Mass Psychosis) became all the rage around the tables of thought, that other eras afforded much more self-reliance and due to circumstances of vast spaces between neighbor and populations made it impossible to wait on organized-others to come save you and yours, and property too, from peril.
Times of shrinking space and rural living is greatly shadowed now, by skyscrapers and landscaping, with villages now the suberbs to the metropolis.
The dilemma today might be of one-size-fits-all, when it’s due to tight spaces, crowded cities and byways, then the people scream for top-down, organized living and civil law.
Law tends to enlarge itself into ideology issued by tyrants, or the people’s judges. It becomes confusing when the station of the three are all found at the same table, assimilating. Sometimes assimilating in the wrong places. The tyrant, the people, the judges, all seated at the table of large populations, over law, cash and pork, or cake.

This seems why patriots like Trump always rise by leaving the table”, like when the house is on fire. There is much to be said for the French and their militia.
* For Their Family and Neighbor In The Moment, They Are “Q”. *
Their community waited for no one, because the moment called them. Every man knows his hour.
I can not imagine what it must be like to be the one who argues against defending your family, castle and storefront, calling you names Liar, Infiltrater, etc., framed as if you were calling for Civil War.
Did we learn nothing of tyrants and jailed J6ers?
Loons are everywhere. Estrogen is on the rise. Give me Trump or Patton, the ranch and latigo.
The rest can shake hands and deliver laurels among the UN, and the French president all day long.
***much to be said for the French and their militia***
The French have a bloodthirsty history. You need to go back and study the French Revolution. Read “To Quell the Terror,” a detailed account of the Martyrs of Compiegne. It shows how absolutely vicious the hatred of the French for Christianity in general and Catholics in particular consumed their thinking. They even changed their week to be 8 days - so it would be different from the seven ordained by God! That’s how petty and base their thinking was. The French Revolution was truly a “mobocracy,” and the streets were overflowing with blood as they killed everyone who disagreed with them. Contrary to what we have been taught, there was no virtue in the French Revolution or those who promoted it.
Do us all a favor and take some time off...
Never in any post has anyone especially Ransomnote even implied that we can not defend our family, home or business that isn’t civil war. And it was you in your original post that she addressed who did indeed call for civil war as you have often done. Ransomnote and others have tried to protect FR from being accused by DS of inciting violence.
