Now is the Perfect Time For the North and South to Divide
The Huffington Post ^ | November 14, 2017 | David Fagin, Writer, musician, Trump Resister, food snob

Posted on 11/14/2017 6:27:14 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Let’s face it. These are trying times. The Assault on Reason, as Al Gore calls it, is a war in full bloom on all fronts. One that, sadly, seems to only get worse as the days go by. The more proof that emerges revealing the overwhelming majority of our country’s most powerful leaders are nothing but a bunch of corrupt criminals and traitors, the more their supporters will deny it.

On one side, we have a population that relies on facts, truth, fair play, and common sense. On the other, well, who the hell knows what they rely on? Fox news, fake news, hackers, conspiracy theories, coal mines, fraud, misdirection, racism, stupidity, ignorance, warm beer, Jesus (a Jesus who hates anyone and anything that isn’t Christian), Trump, Hillary-bashing-as-a-sport, and guns. And more guns.

The fight to preserve common sense and rational thought is on. Those who believe in the basic principles this country was founded on vs. those who seek to destroy them and rewrite them as they see fit. All at the expense of those different from them. Be it in the media, on social media, in the classroom, at the grocery store, the office, the neighborhood bar, at the dinner table, pretty much everywhere you look the hatred and vitriol spewing forth, from both sides, has reached epidemic proportion.

Even though those of us who believe in equality, and the ridiculous concept of Live and Let Live, know we are right, trying to convince those who choose ignorance over truth, and hate over love, is exhausting. It does nothing but further twist the knife into our own stomachs, as well as theirs.....

Yes, I have many comments. I, however, do not wish to be be
banned, so I will keep them to myself.

I actually thought he was talking about conservatives...

Oh well, no hope for them, they are totally lost in their delusion.

Key thoughts:

Neither one seems to wish to budge an inch.

Everywhere you look, our country is being overrun with pedophiles, fake news peddlers, fear mongers, bigots, racists, homophobes, morons, etc., and that’s just Alabama.

Let them have their child-molesting congressmen, their confederate monuments, their ten commandments, their merger of church and state, their automatic weapons, their climate change denial, their Muslim bans, their lies-as-truth, their eggs and grits, their state-run health care, their stock car races, their backwards logic, their medieval laws, their corporate tax cuts, their abortion bills, their humidity, etc., etc. Let. Them. Go.

Go ahead, tell us what you REALLY think about us. The facade is beginning to unravel. As I have posted MANY times, they want to kill us. They really do. Thoughts become words become actions.

I read it. Tell me where the writer is not expressing valid concepts. Or are you just a thug statist at heart?

There is so much projection here that it is overwhelming.

In one breath, he talks about being tolerant of the views of others and then pours forth pure hypocrisy where he can barely contain his desire to kill a bunch of people with whom he disagrees. Wow.

He doesn’t want to kill anyone, he wants to let us go. A seperation. It is reasonable. I’ve been waiting for this for long time. They can insult all thay want but the bottom line is we need to part ways.

HuffPo poofters speak LOL!

Seriously... we should divide Mexico: west to the North US and east to the South US. Give ‘em two states, four Senators.

More guns.

Agreed, though my wife is silently thinking (now that I am 70): what do I do with these when the old bastard croaks?

You aren’t going to tell me these are valid concepts to divide the country...?

I missed the part where he wants to kill people in the South.

It doesn’t matter WHY HE wants to divide. The facts are that the two sides do not get along. I could write the same piece form the opposite point of view but the conclusion would be the same. Get it. The differences are irreconcilable. OPEN YOUR MIND.

Do the commies actually BELIEVE they believe this or do they just want us to think they believe this.


A good party member knows instinctively what to believe, and when to believe it.

A good party member can believe directly contradictory things only minutes apart, or even at the same time, for the good of the party.

"We are already the Divided States of America, and there doesn’t seem to be any hope of reversing course, so rather than plow helplessly into the iceberg and force one side to assimilate to the other...."

The very thought above is going take some killing, and he knows it. I am NOT going to assimilate into his culture even though threatened with death. It's not going to happen.

Psychologically, it's called projecting. He actually wants to do to us what he claims we want to do to him. He is mentally deranged. Watch what happens on down the road with all of this.

Oh, and also, ANYONE who is pro-muslim is for killing those who believe in Jesus. Read a little more about history and the actions of muslims in the present day paradigm before you spout off.

Good point, and has been discussed before.

Secession does not mean war. He can come to the right conclusion though you don’t agree with his premises to get to that conclusion. He is right about is that the two sides do not get along and are incompatible. That is the take away. I am glad they get it too.
