False-flag Nation

The Left’s many accusations using the false-flag tactic have turned us into false-flag nation.

The definition of a false flag is a hostile or harmful action (such as an attack) that is designed to look like it was perpetrated by someone other than the person or group responsible for it.

It was first done by pirates who would fly flags of friendly nations to allow themselves to get close enough to attack merchant ships. The historical use of a flag isn’t the key -- it’s the deception.

This kind of tactic has been used often: in 1939, Hitler faked an attack by Poland on a German outpost so that he would have an excuse to invade Poland. A few years earlier Japanese forces set off a bomb next to a Japanese-owned rail line in Mukden as a pretext for the invasion of Manchuria.

Similarly, false flags have been taken to discredit many a politician or a political movement. One of the crassest charges ever levelled was by James Carville after Paula Jones accused Bill Clinton of pulling his pants down in front of her. He was quoted as saying, “Drag a hundred-dollar bill through a trailer park, you never know what you'll find.” This to put the blame on Jones for Clinton’s indiscretion. Carville claims that she was not the target. You decide.

The intensity of the Left’s obsession to take down Donald Trump has been breathtaking. The Left’s many accusations using the false-flag tactic have turned us into false-flag nation. Never has one person been so consistently harassed, pressured, and accused using one tactic.

Recall when Trump started his rallies back in 2016. Many of them involved some kind of violent fight or violent demonstration, with the media dutifully reporting that these proved the violence inherent in Trump...

The most disturbing thing is that many Republicans will repeat the lie as if it was true.

This is a global influence operation

The protests are a stress-test for network development ahead of the 2024 election
