The fault of who is responsible for the breech of the Capitol is in dispute. Trump supporters advocating on January 6 for restraint and respect for the Law are to be commended as they did not understand fully the larger current in history. But next time, and there will other next times soon, their reticence may lead to a lasting defeat because they don't know what they're up against and they don't know themselves vis-à-vis their enemies. The fight is not over but it may soon be and not the way that Trump supporters would like it to be.

In this historical contrast presented by Daniel Natal, today's Trump Supporters are the Spartans, the forces under Biden are the Athenians. As Spartans were very strong militarily, they became smug and indifferent, above it all, not willing to engage over that which was beneath them. They had the strength but not the will to use it. They would not use their strength unless directly attacked. The Athenians attacked family related states of Sparta but Spartans couldn't be bothered unless directly attacked. This is the same reaction that Americans of history expressed, unwillingness to engage unless directly attacked.

Cultural Marxism does not attack directly in a way that can be discerned by American Spartans. It injects slow-acting poison into the American mindset aiming to weaken its resolve.

The following is but one member (David Atkins) of the DNC remarking on what must be done with 75 million Trump Supporters. But although it is only one publicly expressed remark, it is assuredly what these present day Athenians are thinking:

A great video. I remember years ago joining Free Republic, and it seemed that most public discourse was civil, academic, logical, reasonable...then as of late we bogged down in shouting, name calling. I watched a LIVE speech of Donald Trump and was disappointed at the wretched, demeaning, uncouth, cursing, vile, uneducated speech, expletives and horrible things. How can we understand each other when we totally lack respect for the other persons point of view? Now CHASE wants us to know that I must either BOW and accept the thought police, and NEVER allow people the right and priviledge to give a dissenting view, that they applaud Facebook and Twitters and the suPRESS. Number one guranteed right of a U.S. Citizen was in the 1st Amendement, I wonder why it was FIRST. Yes, I will close out my Chase and Citicard accounts...this week. Promise ya.

It is not in dispute... it is being propagandized and distributed as disinformation and lies. A coordinated censorship of the truth.

As to the question of "how do you reprogram 75 million people?" the answer is you start with the leaders--a handful will do fine. Some will be deprogrammed...and the rest will disappear. This will shatter the morale of the group.

Then, once the leaders are gone, you repeat the process with the next group of previously subordinate leaders.

As the new government works its way down the list, the target group will become more and more compliant. Eventually, gulags will be effective...and productive for gathering intelligence on troublemakers.

A study of China since Mao and a fresh reading of The Gulag Archipelago will show you exactly how its done.

I stole this just this morning from Matt Braynard:

“In a nation such easy access to firearms of all kinds, what a remarkable ‘insurrection’ we had where none of the insurrectionists brought any.”

The point is well taken. But remember, the Spartans were the slaveholders. They were overthrown, in part, by the helot revolt.

75 million is just the number that voted for Trump.
