Prescient?

[Blood of Tyrants]

There is no doubt that MANY on the left would love to ‘disappear’ a large number of patriots thinking that if they are brutal enough, early enough, they can destroy the right forever.

“A Militia of one” makes it impossible for them to track and arrest you.

Brilliant. I will do what I can to help this go viral!

Call me a pessimist, but I tend more to subscribe to George Orwell’s point of view.

“Do you want a picture of the future, Winston? Imagine a boot stamping on a human face....forever.”

“Human nature is infinitely malleable.”

“But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.”

This thing is very big.

My favorite part was the shooting of the lapdog media.

Reminds one of Madrid after 1936.

Bump that!

[Kartographer]

"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? After all, you knew ahead of time that those bluecaps were out at night for no good purpose. And you could be sure ahead of time that you’d be cracking the skull of a cutthroat. Or what about the Black Maria sitting out there on the street with one lonely chauffeur — what if it had been driven off or its tires spiked. The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!"

- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (from "The Gulag Archipelago")

How I wish we could count on Patriots

[Pearls Before Swine]

A depressing story with a happy ending. It’s hard to see through the fog of the future whether the trends we’ve noted end this way, muddle through for a few generations, or it goes 1984-ish.

Great piece of writing.

I don't call people who believe as you pessimists ... I call them enablers
