Across the United States, a great unraveling is in progress. A rolling crime wave, under the guise of social activism, has left city after American city shattered and smoldering. Armed anarchists seized territory inside Seattle with the blessing of local government. In Minneapolis and other cities, a campaign to enfeeble or eliminate the police has gained full legitimacy. In Kentucky, the governor has vowed to provide free health care only to one racial group. In the private sector, companies such as Uber Eats have pledged their commitment to a policy of race-conscious discrimination as well. And major media organs sanction all of the above as proper and good.
The unraveling goes further still. Social-justice mobs have taken aim at freedom of expression, inventing new heresies daily and ruining the lives of those who unwittingly give voice to them. Forced confessions and language proscriptions are the order of the day. Poetry, fiction, movies, and television shows—including children’s cartoons—are canceled and excised from history. Indeed, all art and opinion are now subject to the chopping block lest they prove insufficiently propagandistic.
To rewrite the present, the mob has rewritten the past. They have forced upon us a distorted and grotesque version of American history. With the support of corporations and education boards, school textbooks and curricula tell of an unredeemable America founded not on the promise of human liberty but human bondage. What’s more, this history discounts the transformative progress on racial equality for which Americans—black and white—have given their lives.
Through the violent politicization of all aspects of American life, the mob aims to destroy the country as we know it and replace it with a new one—an anti-America that trades speech for violence, police for thought police, a free press for an indoctrination network, and the respect due the citizen for the obeisance owed the mob.
There is one way to stop the unraveling: Refuse the mob.
Why hasn’t this publication been deplatformed for its hateful rhetoric?
I don’t think there is much left to save.
From bondage to spiritual faith;
From spiritual faith to great courage;
From courage to liberty;
From liberty to abundance;
From abundance to complacency;
From complacency to apathy;
From apathy to dependence;
From dependence back into bondage.
Yep, the two hundred year cycle. But we can be an exemption; don’t stop fighting, that is FR and we are here. Are you going to lay down and give up? I will not.
Stop Abortion
It can’t be stopped, any more than the bloodthirsty guillotines of the French Revolution could be stopped. They, the Communists, unleashed this. It is now out of their control, and it will get worse and worse and worse. There is no return to normalcy, not until the war is over. And this time, it’s going to erase whole civilizations.
Actually, the cycle is about every 4 generations, about every 80 years. It cannot be stopped. You can maybe keep your little corner of the woods safe, as I hope to, but we cannot stop this. Not even the elite can stop this, if they wished to stop it. It is now outside of their control. That is being proved by how reactive they have been the last 2 months.
Same point Razorfist made very recently.
Throughout the western world government, business, eduction, military, religious, and media leaders appear to be involved in a coordinated effort to bring down western civilization. It isn’t just the United States.
Turchin’s book Secular Cycles describes longer 300 year societal cycles, but also shorter generational cycles that happen when younger generations forget the lessons their grandparents and great-grandparents learned the hard way. So I think you’re both right.
The good news is that these cycles are also a function of technology and how people have thought and acted historically. This isn’t an iron law and we might be able to resist it if we don’t stop fighting.
In any event, i’d rather keep fighting against total civilizational decline and have lost than have given up entirely. You can still make SHTF plans without giving up!
“Are you going to lay down”
I see no one standing.
(Chickens lay eggs, people lie down.)
I have laid a few eggs in my time.
Commentary Magazine, chock-full of noted anti-Trumpers; they hate the Leftist mob, they hate the President, they hated the Tea Party activists. Apparently, they want to see the resurrection of some sort of vague liberal Republicanism as a salve for their disgust.
In any event, i’d rather keep fighting against total civilizational decline and have lost than have given up entirely. You can still make SHTF plans without giving up!

Include in the SHTF plans a commitment to creating things. Use the time now spent consuming *entertainment*. Utilize what you have internalized of our culture and history. Upcoming generations will be grateful, especially after living in the planned dystopia that is being threatened.
While many of us may be called to fight and others will be called to support them,most of us need to just make ourselves less available to the mass inculcation being instigated. A version of Going Galt for the working class.
Divide the country into three or four smaller ones. There’s no saving America in its present form.
This was one nation under God. That unity held people to standards of decency, respect and moral characteristics.
Only He can restore it if we stop being angry and start being Jeremiah.
Weep for a nation to turn back to God. Easter cancelled and no one said a peep.
Stop the vain striving.
We are a lawless #Mobacracy without Him. Our children and their children will pay for our sin for generations.
