I didn’t mention the series as something I agree with fully. The ‘tent’ thing was clearly meant to incite racial hatred. What did strike me was the assumption of control and the weaponization of their followers. It’s eerily similar to Obama’s civilian defense force, equally as well funded and as equipped as our DoD. That, plus Holder’s blatant in-your-face hatred of whites.
Yes there were a lot of things I didn’t like in that book, but he was indeed prescient of what we see the beginnings of today.
The author said he wrote it as a “warning”, without specifying what he was warning us about. Was it the development of the society? Or was it people like Turner himself that we were being warned of?
As for the tent scene... looking at the subculture we see that gives rise to flash mobs, whitey beatdowns, etc, you can’t see that as a real possibility, especially when this subculture are heavily armed, backed by the government, with a generational animosity towards their now unarmed victims?
