Thanks. You should check out Pompeo’s talk at Claremont.

Fixed the headline and, oh, I hope this is right.
With the help of the Divine Providence of God Almighty, we, like our Founders, will win against the totalitarian tyrants, and in our case RECOVER our beloved Free Constitutional Republic for yet a little while.
Yeah, ... if they go down hard, otherwise they'll be back.
Marking.
THE issue in America is REINSTATING THE CONSTITUTION AS THE SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND.
THAT would mean dismantling 80%+ of the Totalitarian Federal Government in recovering our Free Constitutional Republic (codified DECENTRALIZED power as a matter of law).
Only with the help of the Divine Providence of God Almighty will we, as did our Founders of old, be able to overcome the enemy (The Left, entrenched in the $4 trillion Federal Government (the “Swamp”, the “Deep State”)) and win.
We should always keep in mind something Solzhenitsyn said post-1917. He said they thought they knew who the good guys and the bad guys were. They realized after the fact they were wrong.
Thanks for posting. Very good. HOORAY Bronze Age Pervert
If we listen to the rhetoric of the left, we can only guess that further restrictions of speech and life, both de facto and de jure, are coming. What is the conservative plan to deal with any of this? The “youth”—but not only the youth, and certainly not only the white youth, although they are the most affected—has seen only capitulation from the conservative establishment, or otherwise outright collaboration.
How often have we heard this complaint on FR? The appellation "CTRL-Left" was well given, and totalitarianism has sprouted there like mushrooms after a rain. But there is a "CTRL-Right" as well, our GOPe, our establishment, and they like Trump (among other outliers) just as little as their Stalinist counterparts do. These are Orwell's pigs who walk on two legs, and we'd best not look that direction for liberation.
The author points out that it isn't entirely generational - quite a lot of us old farts got Pepe long before the Kool Kidz on the Left, who never will. It is, however, raging on the Internet, looking strangely familiar underneath because it is about freedom versus control as it has been long before the Bronze Age, when the Internet consisted of clay tablets fired in the ruins of the buildings that burned down around them. The ending was frequently not a happy one but somehow, freedom survives.
Interesting piece.
It seems the author counts himself in a large group of disaffected people, mostly youth. The only thing these people appear to have in common with each other is opposition to the present regime. It is a loose alliance of strange bedfellows. What they would put in place of the current regime is not defined, because, if it were, they would be fighting among themselves.
I understand the aggravation with the current insanity of the Left and the anti-Trump right. But once the dogs of war (or revolution) are released, there is no telling what subset of the revolutionary forces will prevail.
I know the author has not discussed revolution, but where else does he think this pent-up rage is heading?
It could be an important article but the author is in love with the sound of his own voice and the windy argle bargal storm proved too much for me.
In this age of the Internet make your points faster and with less wordage.

This is a hearty condemnation of the political and government class in America. It points right to the correct enemy and correctly identifies their overt evil.
The most significant take we must internalize from this, today, is that this is not the America of history...the America of history is the country we love and are loyal to. The America of today is ours - and freedoms - true enemy.
it is an America today that is actually worse and more totalitarian than the eastern bloc of the Cold War. A stunning realization for those of us who grew up in the Cold War. Trump IS the insurrection. He is the first shot of the new revolution. And it might well get much harder from here forward.
Look. Define “smart” for me OK?
Let’s just start with that
The intelligentsia is always passing it self off as so intellectual
The DC crowd considers itself soooooooo sophisticated
I don’t think there’s 10 people out of 500 something there in the three branches of government that have any kind of real degree in any kind of subject for example engineering physics medicine
They’re all lawyers with cheesy little law degrees
Just because you’re a lawyer and you can talk quick does not mean that you’re smart
Rush Limbaugh coined the phrase “words mean things”
In the end you have to imagine , like we do it free republic , that everything you say is going to be converted to words on paper or online
Thus it would behoove Democrats to carefully consider what they say
Since at least 2015—
but in fact from before Trump ever came along—
there has been a tremendous intellectual disturbance or ferment online...
that has escaped the notice of the mainstream media, the literary and pundit-political establishment,
and all those who imagine themselves gatekeepers of public taste and opinion.
In academia, where the consideration of ideas, of unusual points of view, of political matters, is supposed to proceed objectively and by calm reason, the hysteria is in fact much more intense than in American society at large.
Thank you for posting. Most interesting.
What is the “alt right” phenomenon? It’s the rejection of the idea that white men are the source of evil in the world, and that we must atone by sacrificing our interests, and the future of our children, in favor of others.
What terrifies the left, is when white men collectively say, “screw that, I’m going to take care of my own”.
