It seems like you’re saying, “It could never happen to us.”
Why could it never happen here? On what are you basing that confidence?
It took Adolf Hitler less than 6 years to get the German people to the point where they could smell human flesh burning and accept it.
Why is America different?
It’s easy to say that neither communists nor Islamists really mean to do us any SERIOUS harm. “In America we don’t have SERIOUS Islamists or communists. They’re really all freedom-loving Americans just like all of us. We just have different opinions.”
The United States White House had Christmas ornaments of Mao Tsedung - the man who exterminated so many people in order to stifle freedom. Anita Dunn - media person for the White House and wife of Obama’s eligibility lawyer - said one of her favorite “political philosophers” is Mao Tsedung.
That’s about like having somebody hang photos of Hitler on the wall and say that Goebbels is their hero.
Why do we think that these people are harmless? Why is it such an extreme thing for people to say that the people who said they would have to kill 25 million Americans if they wouldn’t submit to brainwashing might actually be trying to do that?
They probably wouldn’t actually have very many people they’d have to kill. See, their “re-education camps” are the state-run media, and even the conservative talk show hosts will submit and say what they are told to say, as long as the right threats are used. Most people have been so numbed by the belief that American freedom is a given and can never be lost that they view anybody else who is slightly awake as being crazy and alarmist.
I don’t buy it. It takes ONE COMPLACENT GENERATION to kill America - just as it took six years to kill the soul of Germany.
You also missed my point. I said if they ever tried it, that they would never live to talk about it. That is not saying that it will never happen. But even I as a non betting man, see the odds of something like Germany happening over here as ridiculously small. American kids have been subject to 'reeducation' for almost a 100 years (it's progressives) but it would appear that it is coming to an end. Think on this. Zero might want to stop Home-Schooling, but what do you think would happen if he issued an Executive Order prohibiting it? I doubt if a single child would show up at a public school the next day. This is the Real America and why I came here: defiance. Freedom will not be lost until this defiant attitude is lost. It won't happen. It just won't. Look at Sarah Palin as an example. "They" have tried to destroy her, ridicule and embarrass her, yet she is now adored and loved like never before. America likes the "underdog" Which explains why zero became resident in the first place. But zero is now seen as a naked emperor and is mocked like no other President. As for your final argument: ------------- I don’t buy it. It takes ONE COMPLACENT GENERATION to kill America - just as it took six years to kill the soul of Germany. ------------ This is what the progessives thought. It is what zero ran his whole campaign on. It didn't work, in fact it totally BACKFIRED. I really believe that the progressive era will die a very slow and painful death. Rabid dogs turn on themselves
