destruction through war
or up against the wall in defiance

This posted tonight on X (formerly twitter) by Charlie Johnston @JohnstonPilgram It sums alot of my feelings about all this.
*************************************************
Public Service Message for my leftist sparring partners here on X. You folks really do not understand what you have done and why you can't fast-talk your way past it.
I am 67 years old. Spent my life mainly in politics, from the local to state levels and offering counsel at the national level. The other part of my life was in media, a managing editor of a group of suburban newspapers and political columnist and then a radio talk show host and commentator. I have been a Republican since I was 17.
I collaborated frequently with Democrats on policy initiatives and forging agreements for the common good. They were good times. In media, I defended my opponents when I thought they were unjustly targeted or accused. Needing a favor from a Democrat once that required harmlessly bypassing some red tape, she agreed at first, then warily asked me if I was running some sort of sting operation. I reminded her that I NEVER did ambushes and always gave honorable people fair notice. She nodded and granted me the favor. Again, good and honorable times.
Things began changing seriously a few months after 9-11, when your party went beyond the normal partisan rough and tumble with George W. Bush. For crying out loud, you pushed literary and cinematic assassination porn against him.
With Trump, you have become pathologically malicious. It is almost a demonic frenzy driving you. You make cutesy little arguments contrasting details of Trumps behavior with Biden's, Clinton's and Obama's to try to convince people that the fundamental argument goes against Trump. Everyone not caught up in your frenzied rage sees easily that it does not.
That is only where it starts. You have opened up sustained assaults against people of faith, parents, families, and basic civil liberties from the Bill of Rights. You make no secret of your contempt for the Constitution - and for everyone living in "flyover" country. You think you are economic titans because your states generally produce more expensive, high-tech stuff. You are utterly unaware that a sophisticated economy requires a sound basic economy to support it.
Now, you are swarming on Twitter with your cutesy arguments contrasting details of your party's derelicts with Trump's behavior. You are swarming because you sense you are playing with fire. You are not. You have already set off a mass conflagration that is just building up steam. I will not collaborate with you, I do not want to argue with you, because you have become a lost cause.
There are only four possible outcomes from the ugliness you have insisted on setting in motion; catastrophic collapse, nullification and secession, revolution, or civil war. I am actively working for nullification and secession, as that is the most peaceful path through what you have launched. But I will not criticize those who use other means unless they are indiscriminately violent. I am not interested in your arguments, for you have convinced me you are hopeless and the truth is not in you. This is from a guy who has spent much of his life gladly collaborating with Democrats. The madness will eventually pass. As a serious student of history I know that to be the case. I also know how much damage unhinged, violent ideologues can do to a culture while waiting for the passing of the madness.
We have reached a great and terrible moment. I am not interested in your arguments. This is one of those rare, visceral times where one side must prevail and the other must be utterly defeated. Again, you are not playing with fire; you have set off the conflagration. My only concerns now are how to get through it with the least amount of violence and to prevail over the madness. Though you currently have no capacity to see it, you will go down among history's great monsters.
To me this means uniparty/rino, ie slowing the rate of democrat damage but not reversing it, just getting to the same end, but slower
Right, and Twitter had evolved a whole set of handy language that gets lost with X.
For instance, there’s the verb “to tweet” and of course the message itself is “a tweet”. So someone could say hey did you see what Joe tweeted this morning? And then you could say yeah I saw his tweet.
But how do you do that with X? What is the X equivalent of a tweet called? Maybe an “X message”? The title of this article calls it a “piece from X” which is pretty clunky. And what’s it called when you post an X message? Does a person X an X message? Somehow X doesn’t seem well suited to being verbified.
OTOH, maybe the Twitter shorthands are now so embedded that X will just borrow them. If so, then people will still be said to be tweeting their tweets, and all that will change is that X will be used when directly referencing the business formerly known as Twitter...
X will become great.
Just you doubters watch. 😎
Is this the guy who ran “Little Green Footballs” blog ?
X also sounds a bit like porn. Like “X-rated movie”.
Nonsense.
All that is needed is to follow antifas playbook harder.
“...one side must prevail and the other must be utterly defeated.”
Said exactly this to hubby today.
Bkmrk.
I don’t ever recall collaborating with ‘Rats. On anything.
In summary, all democrats, including democrat party voters, are the enemy and we should treat them as such.
I suggest you study the 30 years war and the Treaty of Westphalia. Mkdern day US is not the first time two cultures could not live with each other and the treaty basically created borders between people for the first time in history.
While the US has states with “outlines”, free movement means it has no borders and thus we intermix with the enemy.
I read LGF for many years and then that dude went off the rails.
“It is almost a demonic frenzy driving you.” It IS a demonic frenzy driving them. The Left are pawns of Satan. Once you acknowledge that everything makes perfect sense.
I think it’s very late in history to remain a Democrat.
.
We have always depended on a leader. We need leaders to come at them from all angles.
Ridding the earth of these monsters will be an effort that takes world wide action.
Probably only God can do it because we have become soft and weak and the monsters have threatened and beaten us down.
I would just add:
You have opened up sustained assaults against people of faith, parents, families, and WHITES
“The only thing Democrats ever learn is how to be more malicious, more cunning, more controlling and dangerous.
The author is right. They need to be destroyed, utterly.”
Truer words have never been said. They get more evil and totally without conscience.
