“Whether he likes it or not, there is something called The First Amendment to The Constitution, and if the muzzie would-be dictator decides to try and take that away ..... (fill in the blanks)”

There’s something called the Overton Window. In, say, 1965 somebody advances the idea that sex with children should be legal. It’s an outrage but then they advance the idea that homosexuals should be allowed to wed. Well, that seems so much more reasonable that it is eventually accepted. Once they get that they start advancing the idea that it’s okay for school teachers to have sex with their students. It’s an outrage, but over the years it starts to happen. You can’t ignore it. As time goes on and more teachers do it the penalty gets less and less. Then, perhaps 50 years later, they advance the idea that pedophilia is normal and should allowed. After all, it’s multi-cultural. Already, the military is not allowed to be critical of pedophilia in Afghanistan. So, from 1965 to now, or perhaps tomorrow, an idea that was first vilified becomes the new normal.

Anybody who fights the incremental progression is vilified by the powerful media machine, special purpose organizations and even the government. I’ve never read how to undo the Overton Window effect. I suspect that it can’t be undone.

The implication that at some point there will be a (fill in the blanks) revolt simply won’t come to pass. To have a revolt you’d need popular support and enough people are far enough along the many Overton Window curves that a popular revolt isn’t the answer. I suggest that public education is one answer, but that has been coopted to serve the Progressive agenda.

You’re absolutely correct of course. All anyone has to do is turn on the TV and see the so-called sitcoms. Almost every one has an obligatory “gay couple” in the cast. There was a time, not too long ago that public outrage, not to mention the FCC, would’ve banned a show like that. Not anymore.

It sounds like the Overton Window is the Hegelian Dialectic.

You have quite aptly described the insidious evil of cultural marxism.

Co-opt it back, moron.

There is an easy, non-violent, effective answer.

But it's not to be shared on an open thread.

Cheers!
