Every millennial should read this but that means they would have to sign off social media for 10 minutes.…expounds the guy writing on the premier conservative social media site.

If we willingly give up our guns this will happen to us.
Look at Britian and the supression of free speach there. It’s happening in Canada too. And even here our news media has lost its freedom through monopolization that extends to social media and so- called higher education.

Bkmk for reading later. Thank you for an excellent post.

Also the empty spaces left by the missing lives lost to abortion - missing potential friends, colleagues, relatives, children, including disabled children who were meant to bless our lives and our society...

Liberals never mention this, as do they never mention
the loss of 50,000,000 taxpayers...

"I saw that the only group of people able to preserve a minimum of humanity in conditions of starvation and abuse were the religious believers, the sectarians (almost all of them), and most priests."

Yes, I immediately thought of the Left/Democrats when I read this:

"The passion for power, to be able to kill at will, is great—from top bosses to the rank-and-file guards"

His account reads much like the book “The Fixer”...by Bernard Malamud, which I had to read in high school...about 1968...I just re-read it. I’ll bet they don’t require it anymore....no sex in it.

Its a pity the Russians didn't enforce the constitution they had.

In Praise of the Soviet Constitution.

“Take heed. It’s what shitlib rats have in store for us - that’s you AND your family. If we let them. “

And this is the HARDEST PART for our side.

It is PERFECTLY NORMAL to judge people against our own standards...no one on this site would do One Percent of what you listed, therefor the Left would NEVER do the same to us.

So ask yourselves these SIMPLE QUESTIONS: How were the Bolsheviks able to kill every one of the Romanov Family (the former rulers)? How was Hitler able to get his hands on millions of Jews, to kill them?

ANSWERS: Neither of them actually BELIEVED that their ‘loyal opposition’ was capable of such. They both, WITHOUT A DOUBT, were warned numerous times as to what was in store.

They chose not to believe them.

“An organization a tenth the size would have swept Stalin away in two days.

True.

“Article [II] (Amendment 2) A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

Organize and defend.

[Noumenon]

Yes - just as the European Jews refused to acknowledge what was happening under their very eyes until it was far too late. Even crossing borders wasn't enough.

“In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations.”
- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918-1956

Also applies to George W. Bush and his ‘new tone’ where he let the Clinton Gang off the hook on all of their crimes - resulting in the FBI we have today.
