Working well within legal parameters, we can counter their revolution with both short- and long-term plans.
Americans are awash in creative opportunities to evade reality: social media, motion pictures, computer games, recreational drugs, alcohol, sports, etc. We call it “escapism,” meaning escape from reality. But, of course, that’s a misnomer. We cannot really escape from reality. We can only escape from the knowledge of or the consciousness of reality. When we are done with our episode of “escape,” reality is right there before us, just as it always was. Whatever reality is, it never takes a holiday, and we can never escape it. For better or for worse, we are immersed in it.
It can surely be disputed whether the dictum “May you live in interesting times” is a blessing or a curse. Nonetheless, there is no question but that we do, in fact, live in interesting times. Currently, it is terrifying to look reality square in the face because reality has become surreal, as though we were living in an episode of Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone.
Ours is an era of hoax and delusion. A partial listing of the hoaxes would include:
-Transgenderism -Abortion -Homosexuality -Open Borders -Climatism
There are more. Add your favorite hoax to the list.
These hoaxes all have two things in common:
(1) The hoax is obviously false. This fact is significant because it means that the hoaxers themselves are fully aware that their hoax is a lie. Hence dialog with the hoaxers is hopeless, for their falsehood is deliberate.
(2) The hoaxers seek to destroy America.

So, what do we do? Where do we start, and how? We are facing a revolution. We need a counterrevolution. We have an imminent need for two things: A long-term plan and an immediate counterstroke...

We need a lot more than just what this article covers.
But, it was sternly written!
Author starts with a diatribe about escapism but fails to say that the right is supportive of these things a well. Or that the left knows how to perpetrate their hoaxes while we are ineffective at fighting them.
Alice in Wonderland was written on the topic.
The lefties subscribe to fantasies that they swear are real.
That’s why it’s hard to hold a discussion.
Not if we depend on the GOP.
Great name for a writer.
Good article.
We can’t forget that Scotus imposed abortion, faggotry and fag marriage on an unwilling society.
It also banned the Bible and even the Ten Commandments in public schools.
The effect of 50 years of Roe, despite its reversal, is a societal coarsening that still rationalizes the murder of babies born alive.
“The lefties subscribe to fantasies that they swear are real.”
IMHO the Left/Media complex is just practicing. They are seeing if they can get people to believe that men can be women, justice is served by distorting laws beyond recognition to maintain their power, to believe that 2 degrees of temperature rise over 100 years is an existential threat, to believe that spending 10s of trillions of dollars on windmills will protect us from this non-existent threat, that a geriatric blubbering shut-in can actually be the President.. and if they can get their messaging right, then they can take everything they want from anyone they want whenvever they want, including your life if you dare to speak out.
If the democrats “win” in 2024, shooting will start.
The government will simply re-fill their schools with imported criminals and welfare cases, continue raising property taxes, and destroying property values.
Leftists are their own worst enemy. They way to deal with them is embrace and amplify, give them every nutty thing they ask for, while backing away slowly and getting out of Dodge. Nature constantly discontinues leftists, without needing any assistance from conservatives.
Well said, and with an economy of words.
