Look at this thread you have a few posters who think this is just awful and we must follow the systems rules to change thing Same R mentality that has us fighting to remain a western culture country

I challenge those who are “appalled” to tell all of us what legal means they believe remain to correct the wholesale theft of the election, the cancellation of our ability to exercise our rights as citizens, and the complete dismissal of our concerns and grievances by the so-called “justice system” and our allegedly elected representatives. We’ve all lost sight of what is actually required to preserve liberty. Oh sure, we’ve talked about it endlessly over the years, but now we are faced with exactly the same type of tyrannical disregard for the will of the People and their sovereignty that presented itself to the founders of our great nation.

And it’s not the leftist tyrants that brought us to this sad point, but far more culpable are all of us on the right who just never wanted to get involved, or to stick our necks out at work or among our groups of friends, because most important to us above all else was that we maintain our comfortable lifestyles, or make sure that our kids’ soccer schedules weren’t disrupted, or that we didn’t lose our jobs. I’m sorry, but that’s just pathetic, and I’ve sensed it for a long time. Lots of talk, but zero courage to do what our Founders warned us would be necessary to preserve freedom. We just took it all for granted and thought it would be self-perpetuating.

But as my tag line states, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” And because we did nothing but talk, and because evil never sleeps, bit by bit the would-be tyrants took away our liberties, eventually emboldened enough even to steal our God-given right of self-determination. But at least the kids got into the “good school”, and we all were able to keep our cushy lifestyles and our expensive stuff, right?

This has all brought us to a point where now we are forced to choose between total tyranny and loss of freedom, and quite frankly retaking our government by force. Any on our side who foolishly thought they could say the right things, but avoid the tough choices necessary to maintain their freedom will now be faced with far tougher choices than those they foolishly sought to avoid.

I think we did more than talk.

We donated. We voted. We prayed. We volunteered. Some even ran for or held public office. We raised out kids to be patriotic and faithful. These are not small things.

But we are being attacked by a large minority of well funded anti Americans intent on taking away our civil liberties and our vote. So what can we do now.

Yes, exactly, we have been promised the Antichrist Great Reset. Nothing has been done about China, either. Supposedly all the people who care about democracy and human rights haven’t cared about China, or Hong Kong, or the rest of the countries that aren’t free.
