We should not lower ourselves to their standards and do the same.

No. Of course not.

We should be good Republican losers...as usual.

It would be unseemly to actually fight back. Better to lose again than to "Lower ourselves".

“It would be unseemly to actually fight back. Better to lose again than to “Lower ourselves”.”

What this post is trying to say is that “she should have put Trump on a pedestal as the best President ever instead of Biden so she is biased because she didn’t”.

Really? That is fighting back? That is just handing them ammo to discredit our accusations even more. Such silliness is self defeating.

A few thoughts.

1) There is a big risk when we engage on their level. It is their methods as well as ideology that define them. When we engage their methods, we become like them. UNDERSTAND THIS RISK.

2) There are other ways to fight back than becoming like them. We should know that.

A lie can overcome the truth.

But the opposite is also true.

THE TRUTH CAN OVERCOME LIES

The problem is we are not engaging with truth. We are not speaking truth in our communities. We are the silent majority. We need to find our voices.

It is our methods and ideology that define us.

Now let’s be honest, why do you want to do what they do? The answer, because it is easy. Speaking the truth is hard work.

Everyone here is supposedly a conservative but few know what one is, the philosophy. Here it is.

Folks, print it out and put on the wall and reflect on it, be guided by it.

If only one person here will do that, I have done my job.
