Is It Too Late?

"Liberalism moves, therefore, toward radical individualism and the corruption of standards that movement entails. By destroying traditional social habits of the people, by dissolving their natural collective consciousness into individual constituents, by licensing the opinions of the most foolish, by substituting instruction for education, by encouraging cleverness rather than wisdom, the upstart rather than the qualified... Liberalism can prepare the way for that which is its own negation: the artificial, mechanized or brutalized control which is a desperate remedy for its chaos."

Those near-prophetic words were written nearly three decades ago by the late great Robert Bork in his landmark book, "Slouching Towards Gomorrah."

He was right about everything.

And he would know. His name became a verb after then-Senator Joe Biden and his buddy Sen. Ted Kennedy made the conscious decision to politicize the judiciary to block Bork's nomination to the Supreme Court. Biden and Kennedy made a farce of the hearings, falsely accusing Bork of everything from wanting to ban birth control to wanting to force blacks to sit at separate lunch tables. Judicial hearings have never recovered from Biden's abuse of power and evil machinations — which have only gotten worse as he's gained more power.

Now, 27 years after the publication of Bork's book, we're being led by "the most foolish" (and demented) people in our nation. Public education has become a bastion of indoctrination, and Americans increasingly eschew wisdom in favor of the most clever TikTok video. Our political system seems to be irreparably broken, and the administrative state seeks to control every aspect of our lives — in many cases, the "brutalized control" Bork predicted.

The 2020s will be remembered as the decade where lawfare became the foremost political tactic of the Left, thwarting candidates by tying them up in legal troubles...

globalized socialism is just before the coming of the Christ. I think this is where we are at.

or globalized tyranny

I agree
we have front row seats to the grand finale

[Major Matt Mason]

Our elections are now what the left say they are and WE let that happen.

Perhaps, but we have people that we vote for that are supposed to be representing us, and they are failing miserably and have been for quite some time. I doubt that the GOP thinks they're failing, though, as there are too many that appear to be perfectly fine with what is happening to the country. They just can't admit that because it would be the end of the GOP (and maybe it should be).

Can one man possibly turn this around? Trump is super-human in the challenges he takes on, but the vast full array of the DS will have their long knives out for him even more than last time.

How can we pin our hopes on just one man?

“Regime collapse won’t happen. They won’t allow it. “

They won’t be able to prevent it because they are combining diversity staffed incompetence into very complex systems which already have almost no margin for error.

They are now having problems doing the basics, like reliable energy and electrical systems as well as a stable food supply.

The collapse is imminent for the very reasons you provided. The question I have is what happens after the collapse.

[Reverend Wright]

No-one know the future, but if you look at South Africa, which is already into a competence crisis collapse, some white enclaves have built entirely stand alone infrastructure - electricity, water, sewage that are separate from centralized systems.

These enclaves are also far enough away from the urban mobs that it’s too far for Kunta Kinte and Chaca Zulu to drive with their limited attention span / high time preference.

[Fury]

No, I do not believe it is too late.

“Sadly, the parents of these idiot children never fought back,”

And today we are watching parents let social media raise their kids

Last Sunday I was at the grocery store and I saw mom pushing a cart with maybe a 1 year old in the cart seat and SHE WAS HOLDING A CELL PHONE IN HER BABIES FACE AS SHE WALKED!!!!

Learned a few days ago that 8 y.o.s are on Porn Hub!

I quit my career as an Ophthalmologist for 10 years to raise my kids. Spent pretty much every week day volunteering at my kid’s school.

What the heck is wrong with parent’s today?????

[Scott from the Left Coast]

On the best day of his life, when he was at his mental and physical zenith, Joe Biden was still a psychotic narcissist. Today, demented and immoral from 7+ decades of corruption and evil, he is still a psychotic narcissist.

[nopardons]

Aside from the fact that the fictisous Kunte Kinte was a WEST AFRICAN and that Chaka Zulu was, as all Zulus were at that time, just fine with the Boers, there is NO PLACE, in RSA, that blacks can't get to since they drive cars, motorcycles, trucks, and don't go around on foot, the now years long drought, as well as the incompetence of those now working in/running the water supply system, means that some out in the wilds somewhere setup isn't going to be working either.

I'd check on the details, that you seem to certain of, but not going to bother my family, about this right now, since you don't appear to actually know much about RSA.

[nopardons]

That's one terrible story!

That woman should be talking to and WITH her very young child; not pushing an electronic device in it's face! If you aren't interested in being a parent, do NOT have a child/children!

[joethedrummer]

I wholly agree!

[Jonty30]

That’s how I see him too. He is an agent of God’s grace to give us time to prepare for the end.

[TexasKamaAina]

Yes, it will be just one term. So his VP pick will be crucial. But the man is a bundle of strengths and weaknesses. One thing he hasn’t done well is picking subordinates (and not just VP). Praying he will do better this time around.

This is one of the cities they are building up.

Secession.

[central_va]

Secession belongs to a different class of remedies. It is to be justified upon the basis that the States are Sovereign. There was a time when none denied it. I hope the time may come again, when a better comprehension of the theory of our Government, and the inalienable rights of the people of the States, will prevent any one from denying that each State is a Sovereign, and thus may reclaim the grants which it has made to any agent whomsoever.

--Jefferson Davis

[central_va]

The withdrawal of a State from a league has no revolutionary or insurrectionary characteristic. The government of the State remains unchanged as to all internal affairs. It is only its external or confederate relations that are altered. To term this action of a Sovereign a 'rebellion' is a gross abuse of language.

--Jefferson Davis

[central_va]

Amazing that a web site called free REPUBLIC has no clue about how to fight federal tyranny - it’s called secession!!!!

[Reverend Wright]

The central authority of the USA is starting to erode.

The State of Texas pushed back against Biden’s open the border order, asserting their own Constitutional authority.

And do far, Biden has done nothing in response.

My view is the States like Texas and Florida should just keep pushing back against this stuff. And see where it goes.

At the same time, they need to be looking at what they will need short and long term if a Secession crisis gets worse.
