18th and 19th century liberalism is the cause of our present difficulties.
No liberal democracy (or republic, if you insist - Weimar was a republic) has ever defeated a bolshevik revolution of the size and scope we are dealing with at present.
This one won’t, either.
Respectfully disagree. Classical Liberalism, (not modern liberalism) is our only hope to stifle the shite show rolling in from the left.
Then again I am an optimist. I am not going to throw in the towel.
