"That's not true in a system where the Democrats have slowly but steadily been gaining. If inertia holds, progressivism will continue to make gains until it has pure hegemony or the nation collapses, whichever comes first. A radical change of course—requiring disruptive and direct force—is what is needed to correct the slow leftward creep that has accelerated into a rapid gallop the past decade."
You said it better than I could have.
The time for Dexter's "compromises" is over.
We must defeat leftism by whatever means possible.
If this eventually means the use of "non-nonviolence", so be it.
The alternative is to accept the defeat of traditionalism and conservatism, and submit to the will of leftist ideology (I chose the word "submit" carefully).
Eventually, if the left wins, islam's numbers and power will gradually increase to the point at which it will be able to overthrow -the left-, and put them to the sword. We're seeing the beginnings of this transformation in Western Europe right now. If things keep going the way they're goin', it's only a matter of time before this happens in the Western Hemisphere, as well.
Aside:
The only possible "third way" I can foresee -- other than the triumph of the left or an insurrection to stop it -- is an "Article V Convention of the States". But the idea doesn't seem all that popular with folks around here...
