The Left loves the United States only in the sense of, say, Woody Guthrie, who wrote “This Land Is Your Land”. They may admire the natural beauty of this country and their American comrades, but despise the historic polity, culture, and religion that distinguishes America. Antifa, Black Lives Matter, etc., are merely a contemporary form of the Red Guards. The real issue is the subversion of the political system. Fifty years ago, police agencies maintained Red Squads, and even Democrat run cities like Chicago were tough on the SDS and the Weathermen, yesteryear’s Antifa. Now the police in numerous cities like Portland, New York, and Boston turn a blind eye toward leftist thugs and persecute rightist demonstrators. Liberal jurisdictions like Charlottesville “throw the book” at the man who hit a Communist demonstrator.
Either lawful order is restored, traditional Americans are subsumed by Communists, or there is a reaction similar to what happened in Germany, Hungary, or Spain after traditionalists were sufficiently repulsed by leftist terror. Washington, Lenin/Stalin/Mao, or Hitler/Horthy/Franco. Only the first is a good choice. But we may wind up with the third, or God help us, the second.
