American’t: From Midterms to End Times (Here comes The American Apocalypse - best article ever)
American Thinker ^ | Selwyn Duke

Posted on 11/20/2018 2:24:53 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Truly great disasters come like a thief in the night. How many foresaw Rome’s sacking in 410 A.D., her collapse 66 years later, WWI or WWII? As for today, how many see that the United States is at what some call a tipping point, what others may call a Fourth Turning? Whatever you call it, the American republic is in its last days. This is too scary for many to contemplate, but there’s something far scarier: playing ostrich and not being prepared for things to come.

The so-called Left, ever violent since its French Revolution birth and as power hungry as ever, wholly controls the culture: the media, mainstream and social; academia; and entertainment. This means it controls long-term politics, since the latter is downstream of culture. So is big business, mind you, which is why the Left controls most of it as well; this, of course, translates into funding.

Trump’s 2016 victory will not MAGA; it was merely a stay of execution, a prolonging of the inevitable. This should have been obvious in a country that could elect Barack Obama and then, like the Titanic having backed up to hit the iceberg again, re-elect him. If it wasn’t, it should be obvious now that the Democrats have seized the House in a Watergate-level rout.

...

There no longer is an “American people”; there are peoples living in America. We’re balkanized not just racially, ethnically and religiously, but also ideologically, sexually and philosophically; we speak different languages, literally and figuratively. With open talk of open-borders socialism on one side and nationalism on the other, the Overton window is now so wide that each end occupies a different time zone. Frankly, many of us hate each other. If our union were a marriage, we’d have divorced long ago.

When Whittaker Chambers renounced communism and fingered Alger Hiss as a Soviet spy, he did so believing he had placed himself on the wrong side of history against an eventual world communist takeover.

His 1954 autobiography “Witness” is not dated & is still applicable to our times.

But yes, only a spiritual awakening can save America now.

Even those numbered among the believers can reach a point where they are rejected.

Is it impossible for a pagan to reach that point, also?

If so, what is Romans 1 talking about?

It’s hard to imagine a bright future for a country so irretrievably balkanized that issues are no longer settled via agreement, but thrust upon us by courts. I’m of the camp that espouses a secession of blue states from the union. The US can no longer survive as a 50-state entity.

I think the author has captured the current status of our nation, and its future prospects, better than any article I have seen in a long time.

The more “conservative” Supreme Court won’t save us, either. With their power-lust and ends-justify-the-means mentality, the Left will discover that judicial supremacy isn’t in the Constitution (which it isn’t). Unlike connedservatives, though, they’ll actually act upon their epiphany and ignore inconvenient court rulings.

Thus demonstrating “courts” are just another ploy Republicans use to avoid the fights they’re elected to fight.

“I’m of the camp that espouses a secession of blue states from the union.”

What of the “red populace” in blue states and vice versa? Just curious how you think that would work out.

“There’s a time to “lovingly teach the principles of morality and honor” ....and there’s a time to pick up [your] damn weapon.”

Rooster, unfortunately I think you are right. And the left knows it as right now they appear to be racing to bring up gun grabbing legislation in hopes to disarm the Americans who may use force to protect themselves and their country.

<>"Dissolution of the Republic doesn’t seem like one, and it’s fraught with peril."<>

That will be the death of Individual Freedom upon the Earth.

Freedom may only be restored by Man when he first steps foot on a new and distant land not of this Earth.

That's what it took last time.

Remember these are all earthly matters. Our true reward comes after this has become dust.

Pray incessantly.

Possibly some land swaps — “red” regions in blue states in exchange for “blue” sectors in “red” states, so long as the lines can be clearly demarcated.

“The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the
endurance of those whom they oppress.”

And what constantly amazes me is how much suffering and punishment people will tolerate before they rise up and destroy the tyrants.

That makes more sense than people having to move all over North America.

The Worldwide Left, even indirectly, works together, while The Worldwide Right doesn’t. This is the ongoing problem for worldwide conservatism, when comparing the two political ideologies. Which political ideology dominates the worldwide media; entertainment; the arts; government controlled: schools, colleges, and universities; ALL jobs dominated by The Worldwide Left; and which political ideology practices judicial activism? Also, The Worldwide Right continues to be way too kind towards The Worldwide Left, in the majority of their confrontations with each other, while The Worldwide Left continues to be the exact opposite! There’s no decent, political clout for The Worldwide Right, which doesn’t work together, at the same time, on any and on all issues!

“Why is Trump bothering to fight so hard against the caravans? They will get in here eventually. We don’t need a fighter like Trump any more it’s too late for that”

That’s nuts.

And yes we do need a spiritual reawakening which I have seen signs of happening.

If our president truly “has the goods” on many up high in the government he needs to use it all. Any defeat of the left cannot be smooth or mitigated.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In other words, we’re already at ‘war’ ... Trump should know this with what’s been done to him:

- Obama spying on him during (if not before) the campaign & after the election
- the attempt(s) by Hilly et al to destroy him, not only politically, but personally & professionally as well
- the Dark State coup attempt after becoming President
- the continued harassment & search for anything impeachable by Mueller et al

To agree with your comment he needs to truly not only take off the gloves, but don (no pun intended) the brass knuckles and put those people in jail who have not only broken laws, but consider themselves untouchable due to our now multi-level justice system. Deplorables i.e. we ‘common people’, especially if Conservative, go to jail at the drop of a hat while the Dark State/Democrats do not, regardless of their crimes, including what surely looks to me like sedition, if not in fact the high crime of treason.

I personally don’t believe the country is salvageable unless there is a return to God and all that means (morals, values, no more baby killing, etc.) and frankly, I don’t see that happening. The only thing that “comforts” me is that I’m old enough that by the time the collapse comes, I’ll be dead. If I’m not dead yet, I’ll be at a point, even if it starts tomorrow, where I have nothing to lose. Perhaps the 2nd coming will happen before we devolve into civil war - best outcome, IMO.

Yes, the left’s road map is a road map to dictatorship. A path to hell. The blame will go everywhere except where it belongs. They will disparage, censor, kill, imprison, criminalize Americans for being patriots, but will happily let foreigners in to run the country and pick at America’s corpse. Swine.

The Left will bring its own holocaust. I believe it is incumbent upon us to fight them rather than sit around and wait for our eternal reward.

Furthermore, consider that the Left's most important supporter is Satan. He isn't just planning to have his minions rule. He is planning to use his government to drive Christianity out of the Country. He is planning on forcing as many Christians as possible to "convert" to the worship of himself.

It is our duty to fight back.
