America Is One Gut Punch Away From Throwing in the Towel on Democracy (BARF Alert)
The Daily Beat ^ | 12/4/21 | David Rothkopf

Posted on 12/05/2021 6:22:38 PM PST by SomeCallMeTim

While America had been rocked by riots and assassinations when I was a kid, the first big political development in America that shocked me was the election of Ronald Reagan. He was a boob, a Hollywood actor, not even a very good one. At the time, just out of college, I did not really understand the darker forces that were behind his election—the racism and greed, the anti-government ideology that was really just a formula to enable the richest among us to make more and the most racist states to chart their own course.

Wow...that's all I can say is, WOW! This writer seems to be about my age. Somehow, we have managed to live 60 years in the same world, and come away with DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSED views of the world.

This is really stunning to me.

David Rothkopf, the author of the above article is a single gut punch away from crying hysterically and running home to his mommy. Why are you living in your mom’s basement David?

Commies only believe in democracy when they are allowed to steal elections.

Their idea of “democracy” seems to be a dictatorship which is run by people whose names we do not know, but who seem happy to have Joe Biden play the part president, for now.

"But Biden is a true genius, a shining light of progress, the one I wanted all my children (that I had aborted) to be a role model for!"

This is the result of life lived in a social and media bubble.
Anyone can choose to hide in such a bubble of course, but it is much harder to do so for conservatives. For liberals of a certain sort, such as academics, its the default. Its hard not to end up in a bubble.

Honestly examine almost any modern Democrats policies and there’s no way you can conclude they’re in line with America and the Constitution.

“This is really stunning to me.”

Then you probably don’t ever want to read what is posted on Twitter or DUh (democratic underground). The amount of anti-American, anti-freedom, anti-family, anti-constitution vitriol spewed on both sites by people who think they are righteous saviors of the world is beyond stunning. It’s stupifying.

“Rothkopf was born to a Jewish family. His father survived the Holocaust while three dozen of his relatives did not”

And this tool sides against Reagan and with the globalist NWO. Shameful that he has no regard for the death of his relatives and supports the same cause.

We can't coexist with these people.

Secession is sounding more and mre the answer.
