I just cannot grasp why there are some citizens in the United States that just beg to live in tyranny. I just don’t get it. They don’t appreciate freedom.

The upside, if there is one, is that after the "glorious revolution" the useful idiots are amongst the first to be marched off to the camps, having done their job.

>> They don’t appreciate freedom.

They don’t understand it. Freedom to them is a handout, or special treatment for getting a job. When we talk of freedom as something that allows you to stand or fail on your own merits, they just laugh at us, because only a “suckah” would want to live like that.

Our two cultures are no longer compatible. We have to face that fact soon, or ours will be crushed under the boot of tyranny. Oddly enough, they’ll be crushed under the same boot, and will cry “why is this happening?” when it does. I will actually pity them more when it happens because their childlike selfishness won’t let them see the truth.

Because “freedom” means responsibility and having to face the results of your own (potentially bad) decisions. Today’s electorate has been brought up in a “no matter what it is someone else’s fault” frame of mind. Freedom cannot exist in that mindset.

Because they intend to be the tyrants, and the tyrants live good.

Not hard to grasp at all considering they`ve been taught all their lives from kindergarten through college that living in freedom is bad and that living under the likes of Stalin and Mao Tse Tung is good.
