I've been to several "patriot" events recently (breakfasts, John Birch, school curriculum awareness presentations @ churches) . . .
. . . and whenever I mention, casually, that we've crossed the cultural rubicon & are now @ a point where violence will play a major part in the fight for sustainable freedoms . . . everyone moves away from me & the conversations come to an abrupt halt.
I remember when Pollyanna Hoyt and her minions laid into me for basically saying the same thing years ago.. now look at her posts on Instapundit.. getting to the point where one accepts that conclusion takes some time and one must mourn.. and move through the stages of grief. Also consider that some may agree with you but simply feel you are breaking OPSEC by saying these things out loud. They are for private conversations in rooms without cell phones, TVs and so forth.
Also I think TPTB are trying to avoid the outright firefights - because they know in a all-in confrontation they will loose. They do not have enough people willing to die for the cause. The vast majority that say "the right things" do so because they is what they feel they have to do to get along and not be targeted. The Left's power is entirely based on fear, and they don't have anywhere near the number of dedicated fighters they would need. I think they will keep trying to fight this on the cultural front as long as they can
They will get their gun laws - but then - rather than an all out confiscation - they will pick lower profile patriots and try to make examples of them - as they are doing now with the people who provided security on Jan 6th to Trump. They want to create fear. They can't afford a real insurrection.
They will attempt to cripple you financially via covid restrictions, , and silence you via HR threats at work or mob threats to your business ( cancel culture). All assisted by the Propaganda media... they think they still have time to indoctrinate the next generation and win through cultural attrition. .. I think they are wrong, but I think they are desperate.
I think the Jolly Heretic has some points
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMCZeZWKYucThese people are mal-adapted for the environment they are creating. Darwinian selection has been broken and its generated a lot of R-type survivalists - who depend on abundant resources. But to break the K-types into desperation and fear they need to create poverty and desperation so they can convince people to surrender themselves to the govt cheese. The r-types won't and can't breed under those circumstances. Heck they are hardly doing it now-- Feminist women still won't date less successful men, and they wait till late thirties for children if they have them at all. Abortions take out many of the children that would have been born to those too stupid to effectively use birth control. The transgender/homosexual abnormality is just part of the mal-adaptation - as he suggests in the video - they really are mutants - variants- zombies- that won't survive and/or procreate to any great degree.
It is very likely that we will be allowed to peacefully retreat to bastions of safety while the rest of the nation (read cities) implodes. There are external threats in that circumstance to be sure - from China and Russia and maybe even India - but wokeness can only survive in a an environment of abundance - and that will soon be gone. Their power lies mostly in fear. Don't give into fear and their power fades. Draw the lines in the sand. If they cross them- fight back violently. But I think these people know they can't cross those lines in a mass movement and win.. they have to try and drag it out as long as they can because they think they can win culturally.
