What's Really Going On In America?

[CCTelander]

It's a term coined by Sam Francis. It's not about anarchist philosophy.

And yet using it serves to muddy the waters and appears to ascribe some form of anarchist philosophy to a bunch of thugs whose guiding principles are the polar opposite of any legitimate form of anarchism. Hence my objection.

Well, antifa are mostly ancoms. Anarchism, as understood through university institutions, has a part in this.

But the anarchy in anarcho-tyranny refers to literal lawlessness. Anarchy in the Aristotelian sense. Plato used the term similarly, I believe.

The unwillingness to police violent criminals; the anarchy
The law unjustly coming down on normal citizens who have done nothing wrong; the tyranny

Anarcho-tyranny.

2. The local politicians/police are intentionally standing down for political purposes.
3. Some people with obviously insane beliefs are being promoted.

It goes beyond that. These protesters are being paid and transported in. This is an op. It's a big, fat professional operation

With everything that has been exposed behind the curtain it is mind blowing the American people can not see how they are constantly being played and falling for this trap.

Isn't it? There's a serious case of denial out there. But at least no one's spewing hot air about carbon dioxide and moose farts.

So, where are your Scottish/Kiwi Trump Train memes you were so obnoxious with only a few years ago, hmm? Maybe you should be a bit more understanding with the dense. You might educate a few more if you can remember your own state of venomous denial.

Um no, there is no anarcho anything involved. What you have is simply one group of power hungry thugs (AntiFa, BLM et al) seeking to wrest some degree of power from other groups of power hungry thugs (local, state and sometimes federal governments). Just another typical power struggle between thugs.

Not this time. Sorry. The dollar has run its course; the debt is about to crash down and crush business as usual. This is the head psychos in charge, full well knowing the can cannot be kicked down the road any longer, and being completely unwilling to make the serious sacrifice in bribes and graft that would be necessary to even have a prayer of fixing it, launching Plan A and preparing Plan B. Plan A is lock us down and enslave us. Plan B is cash in, buy gold, and bug out.

Sorry, but this is not business as usual.

It's a term coined by Sam Francis. It's not about anarchist philosophy.

We all know what the hell it's about. It's about quashing the increasingly popular notion that, when it comes to the federal government, Less is More. It's about demonizing the idea that the less Washington does, the better off we are. It's about making people frightened to face life without a big, fat, grotesquely intrusive Mommy Government leeching off of them.

And every time you attach anarcho- as a prefix to big, fat government you help them condition people to tune out and run away when a real anarchist tries to help them see just how evil D.C. really is. In other words, you're being their useful idiot.

Do you want to be their useful idiot?

Yes, the late Sam Francis, who was drummed out of every conservative circle for being too radical is a useful idiot for Washington. Truly, you see things so clearly. Your staggering intellect refutes the notion that you have to read or understand anything. That takes work.

By what metric is that notion popular, or increasingly popular? Small government isn't going to be part of the discourse for at least another decade, probably more. Nobody wants it. It's not popular.

And yes, the are real anarchists. Ancoms have a very long intellectual tradition. Pretending it's some modern aberration is just dumb.

I didn't say anarchy was a modern aberration. I didn't say the misuse of the word was a modern aberration. The political operatchiks who killed McKinley and Franz Ferdinand were both labeled anarchists. Neither one was even remotely similar to anarchists. They were mislabeled anarchists to demonize small government philosophy, because never let a crisis go to waste.

Your quibbling about whether my conversations with people increasingly sick of the District of Criminals indicates the trend, or your impression gained from internet trolls and MSM sensationalism of paid protestors indicates the trend, is irrelevant. Those who misuse the prefix anarcho- to describe totalitarians are creating oxymorons for the benefit of the totalitarians.

You've complained about the Ministry of Truth pushing all conversation to the left by redefining words. Well of all the words we need to keep their meaning now, the word describing minimized government may be the most important. It sits squarely where the conversation needs to be.

If you want to be their useful idiot, I can't stop you. But I will never acknowledge lame excuses for doing so.

Frogs realized the temperature is rising.
Some insane frogs have elected to boil, and are refusing to allow the other frogs to turn down the temperature or get out of the water.

Perhaps if our society had never grown accustomed to the boys in blue enforcing "law and order," then the kind of actions that are required of the people right now would come naturally.

I suppose the frog has a moment of panic before it boils to death, but we've known this is coming. We've always know.

What's Really Going On America?

We're watching a preview of what will happen when the terminal crisis of this political system arrives.

 

[r3volution 3.0]

The feature event won't happen for at least a few years: not for many years, I hope.

For those of you who remember the 1970s, think about that time.

Then, take away Volcker; the situation at the end of the decade would have rapidly spiraled into Venezuela.

...if not Russia 1917.

RIP Paul

Who'd have ever thought that I'd miss a Federal Reserve Chairman so badly...

what trend is it you see that favors liberty in the long run?

Democracy breeds socialism, which will always collapse on itself.

And then we will have non-democratic government, which tends toward liberalism.

E.G.

Gen. Pinochet saved Chile from a bolshevik revolution.

The same is likely to occur, sooner or later, in this country.

It sounds quite insane at the moment, I appreciate that, but wait a while; it'll sound real good in a decade.

P.S. If you meant monetary policy, then it's simple; liquidate zombie firms, let them fail.

 

[r3volution 3.0]

Let Powell raise rates to 15%.

If he does so, he'll be my lifelong hero.

...I'll wait.

 

[r3volution 3.0]

...waiting indefintely...



....might shed some light.

Out of nowhere, waves of felonious behavior have swept across America and there has been very little response from "the state". Antifa riots, loots, burns properties, endanger lives, and few seem willing to stand against them.

The "governments" in most of these locales appear unwilling to stop the felons, which raises the immediate question of what, precisely, is going on? How did we go from near police-state to borderline chaos in so many places, almost literally over night? What is going on here? Why would police stand down? Why are the local residents standing down? I see almost zero evidence of anyone defending against the criminal element called "antifa".

It seems clear what is happening - we are being sent down a cattle chute that leads to a fork, one labeled "war", the other "capitulation". Who, and I mean what are the names, stands to profit by this? Should they not be identified to the greatest degree possible?

There are multiple agendas at play, all under the umbrella of the left. The main task at hand is to defeat Trump. For Democrat deep state leadership from the Obama era, this is doubly urgent because of the possibility of Obamagate actually resulting in prosecutions. They need to distract in order to ride it out. Are all Democrats in on it? No, they don't have to be. For them, it’s sufficient for all of them to agree that it will help Democrats. More power, bigger government is the goal, with global socialism as the final grand prize.

Then there are the communists and anarchists that want revolution, but they just act as useful idiots for the above interests. Likewise there are elements that just want their payout, like those that want reparations.

Why would he do that? They are doing everything in their power to keep rates near zero, even if they have to buy and overpay for every debt instrument issued.

So, in some possible future, at some indeterminate point, a vicious and corrupt dictator might emerge and rescue us? I'm not sure that Pinochet was a friend of liberty. I don't mean to be cute, the point I am making is liberty is only growing weaker. Or, like, after the country falls apart entirely, freedom will ring then--maybe, if? Nope. How, after the Greek Polis, long did it take for anything approaching liberty to be witnessed on earth in significant quantities and qualities? Hell, maybe after one thousand years of slavery people will take back their rights... Hell, might be all that can be hoped for.

And Pinochet was backed by the gigantic might of the United States. Who shall prop up our Pinochet?

We need Cinncinatus, not Pinochet. There is none. We are alone.

That was due to your own false opinion you had about my beliefs or anyone that simply agreed with what Trump was saying. For example you could not simply see it was support of the Trump/Sessions Immigration plan that was released which I still support. Same as when the far left releases something I agree with. I am not going to oppose or approve of polices based simply by the party or person promoting it.

Your protest against those that simply agreed with this policy I would say was venomous. That is not to say I embellished my support and beliefs a bit when the accusations got absurdly out of hand.

When the opposition party knows they're going to lose an election they cannot afford to lose, what do they do?

Do whatever they can to contest the results?

That doesnt work.

They rigged every local and state Primary against Ron Paul both times he ran. Many of us were there at those conventions.

This is a Coup De Taut. Plain and simple. This is the Leftists (Modern Nazi / Socialist / Communists) taking over the country and blaming the people who gave us the best system that ever existed for the failures brought on by Leftist policies.

 

[KrokHead]

It's ending.

It has ended for a while. It's clear that the law is arbitrary and even your career and home only exist at the state's permission.

Mary, mother of God.

They're running a senile child molester against him.

They're running a senile child molester against him.

Seriously. They're quite insistent about it. They're running a senile child molester against the man.

What will it take to make people see they do not want him out? If running a senile child molesting gaffe machine doesn't do it, what will?

Trump makes too many Republicans too happy while he prints trillions and trillions of dollars. No overt Democrat could get away with it. Trump gives them an excuse to stage riots.

They don't want him out. If they did, they wouldn't be running a senile, blatantly corrupt, gaffe-a-minute child molester against him.

They know that crap won't play in Peoria. They aren't stupid. They know.

I know it's hard to face the reality that Trump's just another tool. But my God. They're running a child molester against him.
