The GOP Is Expecting Payback Post-2022

Simply put, we deplorable semi-fascist monsters who are racist no matter what color we are or whether we actually are racist, and who merely built, fed, fueled and defended this country, want our pound of flesh from the progressives who have screwed with us. Maybe two pounds, or for sissy metric system people, round it up to a kilogram. The House redo on the Contract with America is fine, I guess, but we all know that a GOP Congress can’t pass laws without Gumby in the White House signing the bills, and that is not happening. Yet we still want action. More specifically, we want vengeance, and if we help the Republicans take Congress in 2022, we better see some payback pronto.
Yes, I know that the loser Fredocons whose total failure to exact a price for the escalating series of outrages that the leftist weirdos, losers, and mutations have imposed upon us will cry and wet themselves more than usual if we even consider righteous retaliation. We’re supposed to play nice and turn the other cheek, but the base is not in a turning the other cheek mood. It is in the mood to plant the sole of a combat boot in our enemy’s cheek, and not a cheek adjacent to its jaw.
Payback, revenge, retaliation – these are vital components of a civilized society because the need for score settling is inherent in human nature. A normal person simply cannot abide with being done a wrong and not receiving satisfaction. Normal people are not wired that way, and to expect them to do so is ridiculous, particularly for conservatives who are supposed to have a jaundiced view of human nature anyway as something unchangeable and tragic. It is unjust. Justice cannot tolerate bad people doing bad things then skipping away singing tra-la-la-la-la while we just take it.
And do not let the Twitter theologians tell you that the Bible is anti-payback; that is more of the hippy-dippy crap that pictures Jesus as some sort of Birkenstock-wearing, man-bunned socialist instead of the uncompromising firebrand who drove the moneychangers out of the temple with a stick. Look, I grew up a California Methodist, so I have only a glancing acquaintance with actual Christian teaching, but I can read. Romans 12:19, in the King James Version, provides: “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” That’s not about forgoing vengeance but outsourcing it. There’s going to be some vengeance.
