Well, this is going to be cheery. Have you noticed that everything is a lie and a scam? Everything.
See, the problem starts when our elite realized that it could break the norms and betray the principles that we all thought we were all abiding by without accountability, at least for a little while. The Establishment realized that it can simply not enforce the norms, and then there will be a lag time while the normals continue on as if the norms were still in effect. It’s inertia – this is why you get these sad sack RINOs lecturing us on how we’re subverting the institutions when what we are really doing is pointing out that the institutions have subverted themselves.
It’s willful blindness to the corruption because the weakhearts don’t want to admit there is corruption because that would then require them to act. It’s easier to live on scraps.
As you read this, I expect that we will be hearing how the GOP blew Georgia. Either we lost Tuesday night – no delay in calling it for the commies! – or we’ll enter the endless recounts leading up to the inevitable Dem victory. I hope I’m wrong, but I doubt it. If I am, feel free to mock me for my lack of faith in the system. But then, sometimes you draw a five when you have 16 in blackjack. You just don’t bet on that happening.
I guess this is all necessary. The structures and institutions of American society have all been in place with little real change for nearing a century. Nothing lasts forever though, particularly when they are run by grifty idiots. The disruption caused by the tech revolution has helped speed up inevitable processes of change – you know, the creative destruction we hear about in unwoke economics courses. The institutions we relied on – our churches, the NFL, the political parties – are now focused entirely upon preventing that inevitable change. The lackluster losers who inherited their sinecures in these institutions (not literally but by being adopted into the establishment by going to the right schools) want to maintain a status quo that is great for them and poison for the rest of us.
Joe Biden* is the quintessential example of this, a failed retread with zero accomplishments promising business as usual with a veneer of wokeness slathered on top of it all. He wants to hold on to his ruins. He’ll entrench his corporate masters and do everything he can to stifle the potential for reform and dissent. Remember when dissent was patriotic? Now, the media’s whole job is to angrily reaffirm the divine right of our garbage elite to rule us.
BREAKING: All the people in power are good and wise and benevolent and competent and to say differently is treasonous sedition of treachery! Film at 11.
And they have carefully cultivated a class of drones to support them. You see them on the street, healthy people wearing face diapers as they walk alone. They can’t all have immunity conditions. Most are just brainwashed, and eager to be. There’s this funny outtake of The Office where they elaborately prank Dwight to think he is in the Matrix, and they offer him the blue pill that sends him back into the false reality or the red pill that opens his eyes. He asks for the blue pill. And that’s what so many of the losers who are our fellow citizens want, desperately. They yearn for a blue pill to make the reality go away.
It never occurred to me until recently that maybe a lot of people don’t like freedom. Maybe they are happy enough with Netflix, Trader Joe’s chardonnay, and serfdom.
I told you this was going to be cheery.
And yet I have long-term optimism even if I have short-term predictions of chaos. History doesn’t just stop. There’s no locking us into this forever. And enough of us are woke that we remain a threat to the garbage status quo and the mutants who run it.
It’s easy to focus on the bad – a Mitt Romney or a tool like that useless Georgia secretary of state – to draw our attention and become a focus for our anger, but look at the bigger picture. We have more squared-away folks out there doing our work now than ever before. The GOP, which we will not abandon because in a two-party system you can’t really start a new party, has been dragged kicking and screaming our way. Oh, not completely, not even close. But it is moving our way over time. The Jeb!s and Nikki!s think they stand to inherit it when that mean old Trump leaves. Nope. Not happening.
This is a long war. If you want a quick win, you won’t get it. If you think some sort of magic even is going to fix everything, wrong. Rome wasn’t built in a day. Our Rome won’t be torn down and rebuilt in one either.
Show me a liberal that isn’t lying, and I’ll show you one that’s in a coma.
It took about 70 years for the Soviet Union to gasp out a slow death. Even then Russia didn’t get freedom, it just morphed into a Balkenized gangland of crime bosses.
The 4 year Democrat coup against America has succeeded!
Just dayamn... that guy Kurt can write.
“The GOP, which we will not abandon because in a two-party system you can’t really start a new party, has been dragged kicking and screaming our way. Oh, not completely, not even close. But it is moving our way over time.”
Sorry, not buying into this. The GOP is part of the apparatus referred to as the Deep State. Maybe some of the newbies don’t know it yet, but they are in the very process of being sucked into it, if they haven’t already experienced it. I think it happens at some point in time, when a major stand on principle is called for and you come to realize that siding with right, siding with the people is just too great a price you are willing to pay. Yesterday, we saw more of this happen: Tom Cotton, Rand Paul, the other senators/representatives who had to vociferously denounce the “attack on our democracy” much more loudly than to try to put events into its proper context: “Americans are seeing the overthrow of our republic; that’s how serious this election fraud is to them.”
I was having a discussion last night with my mom regarding the entire “situation” of the republic where lots was discussed on a very philosophical scale.
yes, the world is full of lies now, and there is no quest for truth anymore. science is corrupted as is medicine and many other “industries”
the truth is a fact that cant be changed no matter what. you can run and hide from the truth but it’s always there.
When hikers get lost in the mountains and they are holing up in a cave to survive, then a pack of dry matches are the truth and reality. regardless of what Greta Thurnburg might think or say.
the truth hasn’t hit enough people yet but one day it will
The business owners who lost their business to rioters and then turn on the news to hear it described as a “peaceful protest” know the truth
The grieving family whose loved one gets killed by an aspiring rapper, but his pic or race are never mentioned in the newspaper know the truth
the michael flynns who’ve been wrongly prosecuted know the truth.
the truth will ALWAYS win in the end.
the USA is currently living a lie and one day will learn the truth, probably the very hard way
“The GOP, which we will not abandon ...”
We will see how that goes. Get ready for a heaping helping of Nikki Haley, “fiscal responsibility”, and war in the Middle East. Also, get ready for less in the pro life agenda, more acceptance of LGBTQ stuff, and so on. The GOP is dead. 2 more Dem states and a packed Supreme Court are quite likely. Elections? Lol. They will just cheat.
We should now attend to the MSM. Patriots have focused on the wrong people.
The media - the Leftist Propaganda Machine, the Fourth Branch - should now be the hard focus. We can have real affect upon them, their advertisers and their local outlets.
THEY have the eyes, ears and minds of the ignorant citizens.
THEY get D’rats elected.
THEY hide truths and repeat lies.
THEY hire D’rats to work and speak for them.
THEY are the enemy of our republic (the word they NEVER use to describe America).
“ The GOP, which we will not abandon because in a two-party system you can’t really start a new party, has been dragged kicking and screaming our way.”
I think the new, and hopefully sustained, activist nature of conservatives will drive republicans to rally with democrats. They will circle the wagons to protect their power, which will mean stifling our expectations. The enemy of my enemy sort of thinking. This is why we have to get rid of the ruling class, even if it means temporarily giving up the seat of a well funded rino we can’t remove during the primaries.
It ain’t over yet. The fat lady is singing, but she may be pulled off the stage. Dewey defeated Truman, right?
There’s still more to come... we now see how corrupt almost everybody in DC is. Even the repubs.
The truth WILL always win in the end, but the Big Lie is now the ruling philosophy globally, not just in the US. Trump and his followers were just the last impediment to its dominance. Truth will only be restored through much turmoil, if it ever is through human intervention. On the other hand, truth may only win in the end, as in THE END, if you get my drift.
Yesterday, the Demonicrats and enemydia began to openly flaunt their traitorous nature. It will get worse.
I recommend getting much more active locally, finding your fellow True Americans, setting up more barter systems and family/friend networks, taking good care of your health, and weaning yourself off any dependencies (tobacco, nicotine, alcohol, sugar). I also do not recommend that the young join our military anymore.
“the truth will ALWAYS win in the end.”
And just when did that happen? Ancient times when empires enslaved subject populations? The middle ages when people were murdered because they were of the wrong religion, or the wrong version of the right religion? Or maybe it’s modern times with the dictators like Hitler, Stalin, and Mao murdering hundreds of millions?
The USA is historically unique. If we want it to stay that way, we have a bit of work to do, against huge opposition. It won’t just win in the end. It has to be won.
The hallmark of the USSR was lies. The entire soviet society knew everything they were told was a lie. Factory outputs, grand claims, harvest reports, explanations for everything. They became experts on seeing through the bullshit.
When their news showed some news story with film criticizing America, they looked into the background of the shot and saw cars, houses, and luxury.
Our entire society is built on lies now.

I don't know what the "Office" is and I've never seen "The Matrix", and I have no desire to.
Look on the bright side: with Joe Biden, we’ve already moved from Lenin right to the Brezhnev era.
That's what the elite are trying to force us to do now-- they've won, they know it, and the torrent of lies is way to further humiliate us and force us to become complicit.
