This may sound like hyperbole, but we are now openly at war with the Left. They are seeking to override a fair and constitutional election because they did not like the outcome. They are using tactics from street brawling, general rioting, disruption of political rallies, radicalization of students on college campuses, and the domination of the 4th estate for purposes of propaganda and disinformation. They are willing to sacrifice the constitution, democracy, and all of the established rules of our civil society in pursuit of seizing back power. Its a familiar determination, one that cost 100's of millions of lives in the 20th century, but it is rearing in its head now right in front of us...threatening the very fabric of the United States.
If conservatives and Republicans cannot rally together now, we are going to lose this fight and this country...and we will not win it back in our lifetimes. Remember, tyranny and oppression arise from the Left and are shrouded in self-attributed good intentions married to self delusion. We are approaching that moment where the country is going to take a paradigm shift in one direction or another...we will move sharply Left, or we will fight back this tide and hold to the constitution.
I'm not prone to apocalyptic political predictions and find myself almost stunned by the situation we are crashing into...we must oppose this with every non-violent means at our disposal. And I'll be honest, I'm not optimistic that we can unify sufficiently to beat a Left that is now moving in almost complete concert.
Fine. Y'all come back, now, y'heah?
Conservatives really would be happy to have the GOP join us.
But instead of embracing conservatism, the GOP is fighting a two front war.
Against the Far Left and against the very Conservatives Fox News has enabled them to label as "extremists" even as Fox (in the middle, and never claimed to be otherwise) was labelled "Right Wing".
The reason we are here is that the Left embraced their "extremists" because that was where they wanted to be anyway. That gave the Left a lot of room to claim the middle ground.
The GOP kicked Conservatives under the bus and called them "Extremists" and had nothing to balance the right side of the political spectrum. As a result, every move to the "middle" was a move to the left. Every compromise was a step closer to communism rather than a step back toward Constitutional government. In my lifetime, I have watched the GOP fade into the distance and stood my ground. I didn't leave them so much as they left me.
The GOP has become socialism lite, and the power players in the GOP really want the same power the Left does--and not to restore it to the people, with rare exception.
If the GOP fails to embrace conservatism, and doesn't quit moving left, the battle cannot be 'won'. Becoming one with the enemy may win elections, but it does not 'win' the conflict. It only puts a different letter behind the enemies of the Republic.
