Thank you for stating once again this vitally important Truth. It cannot be overstated or repeated too often.
The Leftists, just like the Islamists, never, ever concede the Struggle. If they lose a battle, or even a war, the survivors immediately regroup and begin planning a fresh offensive. If they agree to negotiate, compromise, call a truce or sign an agreement it is invariably a ploy, a strategem, a "hudna" if you will, to buy time for them to regroup, rearm and then resume the attack at a more favorable opportunity. The control of language and history are major weapons in their arsenal.
They are, in short, implacable totalitarians for whom the terms "compromise" and "agreement" are merely battle tactics, not an end in themselves, and "peace" means the destruction of their opponents and the eventual "absence of resistance" (socialists) and "submission" (Islamist) to the imposition of their will.
I believe that the great lesson of the Twenty-First Century, as yet unlearned, will be that the utopian dream of compromise and co-existance with these virulent, anti-life, anti-human and anti-God belief systems is simply not possible. Unfortunately, the cost will be horrific.
Great comments in Post #215!
I couldn’t have put it better myself.
Never surrender, and don’t let them do it, either.
Excellent post here great job Tarheel.
Gotta go to work, this was fun.

Yes, a more talented observer of history than I am could really make the case for many parallels between our world now and the western world of the early 20th Century. After the Gay (Eighteen) Nineties came the ‘workers’ movements in the 19 Oughts, followed by destructive war in the Teens, followed by half of the world under the yoke of totalitarianism for more than half of the 20th century.
