No argument there, FRiend Vaden.

I was hoping for a Biden win to muddy up the waters and it appears my wish was granted.

Ultimately, what I’m hoping against hope for is a brokered RAT convention where the superdelegates maneuver Bolshevik Bernie out of the nomination.

After that, more than rioting ensues — a low-level civil war breaks out, only it’s between factions of the Left rather than Antifa vs. Patriots. Milwaukee and a few other run-down cities burn to the ground, and we get to watch the carnage from our relatively safe suburban and rural homes.

Harsh chemotherapy for our broken political system, but probably the best possible scenario. Let these traitors and lunatics destroy each other. We on the Right are the builders and the doers. A few burned-over cities will rise better than ever in a few years.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about probably the two best books I’ve read about the Spanish Civil War — George Orwell’s “Homage to Catalonia” and Arthur Koestler’s “Spanish Testament.” Both devote a lot of pages to the Stalinist vs. Trotskyist/Anarchist infighting that at various points in that war took precedence over fighting the fascists.

Leftists are deranged and violent. That’s all there is to it. Again, I don’t want to sound like an optimist, I’m just considering a range of possibilities, and internecine violence on the Left needs to be considered.

I totally agree. I also have long thought that a good dose of social disruption from the left is gonna be needed to snap people out of it and see their true colors. Sometimes tough medicine is the best.

The funny thing about all of this to me is this: do these people REALLY believe in what they are selling? Burnie is rich, owns 3 houses, cars, and has a 2.5 mil bank account. I don’t think these people want socialism. I think they want to use the false promises of socialism to get elected, sink the economy, and introduce repressive measures to “fix” it.

It’s POWER and CONTROL they want and that’s why they are so dangerous.
