So, I’m working on my year-end wrap-up piece, and preparing for my thoughtcrime trial in January, and getting my affairs squared away in case I get a visit from the New Normal Gestapo, which is currently raiding the homes of “criminals” like me here in Germany and other European countries, and … well, it’s all going a little more slowly than I had hoped.
Well they’ll be no wrong thinking if they chip the brains like they want.
It’s just nice to see those who helped to bring the hate speech insanity in get a taste of their own medicine. If they weren’t so vain vapid and morally corrupt they’d have known where it was heading and realise they’d been had early on helping to put a stop to it.
Didn't take much did it? To reverse Europe into the 1930s but with worse fashion sense and a wider variety of crisps.
I'm quietly amused about that bloke being sort of hoist by his own petard. Expect to hear much more indignant squealing from the supposed liberal elite as they get caught in the same net. Do none of these people know anything at all about the 20th century?
For the rest of it, I'm quietly quite scared because I know quite a lot about the 20th century.
In the 20th century more people were killed by their own governments than were killed in open warfare, and a lot were killed in open warfare. Why gun control? Because people will not willingly get in the boxcars.
Evidently they will. The 2nd amendment gives a facade of freedom. The USA citizenry has more guns than we know what to do with and still for the most part we’re apathetic low info isolated intimidated citizenry, especially Americans who aren’t well connected or protected by identity. To paraphrase CJ, the “woke” fascists aren’t playing grab ass. See 6th, January 2021. Owen Shroyer’s case. His politics and style may be different from yours or mine nonetheless he was persecuted/prosecuted/imprisoned for Wrong Think, Bad Speak, Being at the wrong place at the wrong time and having no class protection. This in the much ballyhooed land of the free and home of the brave.
Afghanistan and Yemen provide instructive counterexamples.
The difference being that the average frustrated Pashtun is far tougher, more determined and more resourceful than the average frustrated American lardass.
Apparently you don't know too many Americans. There is a lot of difference between those that went to Afghanistan and the average country bumpkin red neck in Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee or Oklahoma for starters.
And of course, many of the rest of us, especially if we are white, are now classified as Domestic Terrorists, and they have gone from announcing they were spying on only 129000 of us to now over 2 million of us.
And the new Speaker of the House sees the Defense bill passed with a four month extension of warrantless spying included. And they recess until January. But he's so much better than the old Speaker.
Please note that it was in the strongly gun controlled areas that people were put in camps, and where civil rights were steamrolled over. In the US it was the strong gun-controlled states instituted such policies. At this time, Illinois is demanding that owners of "assault rifles" and magazines hold more than 10 rounds register them. Compliance is running at less than 1 percent. Connecticut and New York experienced similar situations upon demanding registration.
And what it all boils down to is this...THE ENFORCERS are going to have to decide. Are we on the PEOPLES side or the ELITE slave drivers side. If they pick elite...AIM SMALL MISS SMALL Just like the colonists did at Concord Green against King Georgies ENFORCERS. JUS MEUM TUEBOR.
Good points. I think the strong emphasis being placed on eliminating the 2A by the US gov is evidence that they do think it's a problem for them. Much of the effect is invisible, similar to how criminal protection rackets thrive in strong gun control areas, but you don't actually get organized criminals being shot in the others. Your points are well taken, but don't discount the unseen effects.
The 2nd amend. acts mainly as deterrent for the gov. If the government enacted a law that caused them to have to fight a little battle at most houses, they wouldn't be filling up the box cars as quickly or effectively, if the public was unarmed. The gov knows that there are laws that go too far, and so they are reluctant to try knowing they would lose control.
If you think an armed populace couldn't win against the better equipped and trained gov force
Then study what happened in Viet Nam, Cuba, or Afghanistan. The government knows it could not win, so it doesn't make laws that could or would provoke that outcome. The 2nd is a deterrent, and it works.
In Oz, They took all our guns. Well, except for the crims and the Lebanese drug cartels. Only cops have guns now. There's a great riddle: 1 knife, 3 people, 2 apples... So, where does one get a gun? .... 😶
"The totalitarian states can do great things, but there is one thing they cannot do: they cannot give the factory-worker a rifle and tell him to take it home and keep it in his bedroom. That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage, is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there." - George Orwell
“Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act of depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest.” Mahatma Gandhi
When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred. - Niccolo Machiavelli
"The notion that you can somehow defeat violence by submitting to it is simply a flight from fact. As I have said, it is only possible to people who have money and guns between themselves and reality." - George Orwell, 1941
"We maintain [privately-owned] arms largely because we seek to prevent violence. Those that wish to disarm us do so that they may perpetrate it with impunity." - R. Murray
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." ~ C. S. Lewis
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of men who wanted to be left alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over.
The moment the men who wanted to be left alone are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up violence, these men who wanted to be left alone, fight with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives. They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror. TRUE TERROR will arrive at these people's door, and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy... but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the men who just wanted to be left alone." ~Soviet Dissident Alexander Solzhenitsyn.
So JUST KEEP PUSHING...and once evil is no longer sufferable...REAP THE WHIRLWIND!
Sir, I am in my sixties, I'm familiar with the Pigs. 😶 I see a police weapon, I mean, person, and I flinch in fear and hatred. They are there to CRUSH US. To preserve Statist Status Quo Controls. I got pulled up the other day by a gun wielding, government sanctioned Highwayman, called "Highway Patrol". He sauntered over arrogantly, hitching up his weapons belt, with Glock, Taser, Baton, Pepper Spray and handcuffs all prominently displaying his Sanction and proceeded to interrogate me. It really sunk in; take the fucking sneering scold - or kill him... 16,000 armed gangsters back him up in New South Wales alone, the state I'm in. Not really an option until they come for the dissidents. Then, well, I know how to get a gun, yeah. But will hopefully die on my feet, as a man, not a fucking borg. When They start filling the Australian Concentration Camps, I ain't going to act like I don't know the score. The WHOWEFUN must be destroyed, or we will be murdered by our own Elite$.
We are about the same age. You may or may not make the connection to what I'm saying here, but like I have said countless times in the last decade: "If Israel is not stopped, and soon, we will all be Palestinians sooner than you know it."
I know the US sends their cops to Israel to enhance their education. I wonder dose OZ and AU do that?
Get this: my state, NSW, has used IDF TRAINING in Crowd Suppression, as has several other state police mafia here. Already, our Canberra (capitol) Australian Federal Police have used a MICROWAVE WEAPON on peaceful protestors. E.N.E.M.Y. ACTION.
Ah yes, a manual. Does it mention assassination? I think hands on: direct threat/ignored/dead is a wonderful learning tool, particularly in Upper Management. Also, Aged Care, find the Terminal, the Regretful and convince them to wear a 💣 vest and visit board meetings 😀 Purely as an intellectual exercise 👏 you DO understando, oui?
Your crime is you are educated and ask questions. The overlords hate those with independent thought(s). It is anathemic to the goal of de-education and control.
The deliberate miseducation of the American people...the dumbing-down effect...was the brainchild of John D. Rottenfeller, the original Robber Baron. Recruiting "philosopher" John Dewey, along with old Yankee stalwart James Bryant Conant; Rottenfeller set about granting Columbia University massive funding for a college of education in that institution.
Columbia's college of edumacasion became the template for similar iterations right across the fruited plain.
Year by year and decade by decade, the educable young, forced to attend these governmentally controlled "public" schools, were gradually exposed to progressively less substantial courses, while psychologically bought off by intramural sports and similar diversions from a curriculum based upon the principle of inculcating and augmenting the capacity for original thought and critical faculties.
The devolution of true education has become so debased that the vast majority of high school graduates would be incapable of operating the "old-fashioned" cash-registers. Their mathematical skills have been so utterly debased by "new math" and related obfuscations of the learning process that their life-skills levels have consistently deteriorated.
There are many accounts of young "adults" not even being able to manage a simple checkbook. They cannot deal with cash in most transactions, rather bonding to electronic manifestations which are so thoughtlessly easy and convenient.
It's all a matter of pattern and design by the ruling financier elite.
Recently, I gave a woman a fifty dollar bill at a well known grocery store. She literally could not give me the change back. After telling her how to do this and then sensing her skepticism even after she had finished, I had to show her how to check herself (and my change). After it was all over, I was convinced she still didn’t trust any of it. Fortunately, a man standing behind me encouraged her to go through the entire process, but he seemed as stunned as I was.
I went to an art store in town where a recent grad from a highly rated high school helped me with my order. I'd like a mat cut to 2 by 3 feet, I said. They informed me the measurement needed to be in inches. So I explained, there's 12 inches to a foot, so.... that would be ... I slowed to see if this was enough.... then continued.... 24 by 36 inches. OK they said. Oblivious to their own lassitude and ignorance. Oy!
From the movie "Ride With The Devil" 1999. Toby McGuire, Jewell and Skeet Ulrich
Note what is being said about the school... I believe that movie was the most accurate well done "Civil War" movie I've ever seen.
Mr. Evans: Have you ever been to Lawrence, Kansas, young man?
Chiles: No, I reckon not, Mr. Evans. I don't believe I'd be too welcome in Lawrence.
Mr. Evans: I didn't think so. Before this war began, my business took me there often. As I saw those Northerners build that town, I witnessed the seeds of our destruction being sown. The foundin' of that town was truly the beginnin' of the Yankee invasion. I'm not speakin' of numbers, nor even abolitionist trouble-makin'.
It was the schoolhouse. Before they built their church, even, they built that schoolhouse. And they let in every tailor's son... and every farmer's daughter in that country.
Chiles: Spellin' won't help you hold a plow any firmer. Or a gun either.
Mr. Evens: No, it won't, Mr. Chiles. But my point is merely... that they rounded every pup up into that schoolhouse... because they fancied that everyone should think... and talk the same free-thinkin' way they do... with no regard to station, custom, propriety. And that is why they will win. Because they believe everyone should live and think just like them. And we shall lose because we don't care one way or another...how they live. We just worry about ourselves.
Chiles: Are you sayin', sir, that we fight for nothin'?
Mr. Evans: Far from it, Mr. Chiles. You fight for everything that we ever had. As did my son.
Math skill loss can be made up by smart devices unless the power grid or internet fail. The revision of history with loss and destruction of European and American History in favor of Balkanized history is being played out before our eyes with revisiting 1930s Germany in America.
If you rely on smart gadgets you don't learn to recognize the logic & patterns behind the maths. So you don't learn or practice thinking.
In grade school, my teachers had a couple students who would get extra/advanced lessons to work out on our own while the rest of the class learned the lesson of the day. In jr high, they dropped the "tracking program, instead expecting the bright students to assist the mediocre & dim. That, naturally led to the bright being hated & bullied by the rest. I learned new lessons in the 1st 5 minutes of math & Spanish, then learned to sit quietly & entertain myself for hours. My grades dropped, the school recommended I be sent to private. The only fight my father ever won against my mother. "Education is wasted on girrrls!" he sneered.
So in my liberal school I learned to wait. First to wait to get out of school. Then to wait tables. Then to wait for a decent opportunity. Then to wait for a good opportunity. Then to wait to retire. Now I wait to die.
Once completed a shortened, 20 minute mensa test in 5 minutes. Iq 155. All a fucking waste thanks to rotten to the core American Way.
Holly shit! I have an IQ of a meezly 127. In other words, 1,5% of the population in my country have a higher IQ than me. I was lucky, and the future in my past was a whole lot brighter than yours.
Tis is all thanks to the Rockefeller donation to create the Education Department. In 1994 there was an education reformation here. Now kids start in fist grade at the age of six instead of seven, and they've lowered the standards. Schools now chern out kids that are more or less useless.
This is evident in journalism in particular. Their main tool is language, and they are totally lacking in the skils of its use.
But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education SUCKS, and it’s the same reason it will never, ever, EVER be fixed.
It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you’ve got.
Because the owners, the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now, the BIG owners! The Wealthy… the REAL owners! The big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions.
Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice! You have OWNERS! They OWN YOU. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls.
They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying, to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don’t want:
They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. that's against their interests.
That's right. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table and think about how badly they’re getting f&$#%d by a system that threw them overboard 30 f&@&@%$g years ago. They don’t want that!
You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shitty jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your Social Security money. They want your retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all from you sooner or later cause they own this f@&@%g place! It's a big club, and you ain’t in it! You, and I, are not in the big club.
By the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table has tilted folks. The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care! Good honest hard-working people; white collar, blue collar it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-working people continue, these are people of modest means, continue to elect these rich cock suckers who don’t give a f%@k about you….they don’t give a f@%k about you… they don’t give a F@&K about you.
They don’t care about you at all… at all… AT ALL. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. that's what the owners count on. The fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue d@&k that's being jammed up their a%@$#*s everyday, because the owners of this country know the truth.
It's called the American Dream,because you have to be asleep to believe it. ~ George Carlin
I failed the SAT tests in High School 100%. I got EVERY question wrong. Because of it, I was called down to the principals office. They told me that it was IMPOSSIBLE to get every question wrong unless I knew the answers. To which I replied, What difference does it make? I won't get a scholarship and I sure can't afford to go to a decent college because I don't have the funds and my parents cant afford to send me, so it really doesn't matter now does it? You know what they did? Flipped my score to 100% correct. Did it make any difference...Not really, I still ended up in the trades as a plumber and I've done OK for myself and family. And I guess "OK" is OK. We did give up $1,000,000 in salary over a 20 year period from my wife as a registered nurse so that we could homeschool our four home birthed sons. Who never had a SINGLE vaccination. Yeah, we're different. I don't have a human heart. I have one of a raging LION! JUS MEUM TUEBOR!
I’ve always made a point of giving my children cash to use, once they get used to the notes and coinage they understand far better than numbers on a screen plus it helps no end mathematically.
From around 6+7 we gave them a budget to work with for Xmas presents which made them learn to budget on focusing on what they really wanted instead of lists of useless junk.
The oldest is now in an engineering apprenticeship, he turned down his spot at uni and also still works his Saturday job, he sets that money to one side for his car insurance, running and any maintenance needed.
Youngest is doing her A levels plus working 2-3 shifts on evening at McDonald’s and has a Saturday job also.
Both have friends who have worked far longer than them and never have single penny left at the end of the month waiting for the next payday, both mine have commented on the craziness of it.
The lack of parents participation in educating their children on finance skills is astounding and has made it so easy for the system to manipulate them.
My husband was reluctant when I wanted to introduce the budgeting idea for our children, he was more of buying whatever they wanted whenever they wanted, I brought him round by stating we’d be doing them no favours and the proof has been in the pudding where some of their peers have not a single idea on money management.
I am reading Franz Josef Kafka "The Trial" for the very first time & would like for you to share more of your prosody & how its salience is connected to your trial. Do we as readers really understand the chief reason for the man's troubles?
The good news from America is that not all hate speech is banned. Just as Germany in the 1930s condoned hate speech against Jews, here in the States today, hate speech against Trump is entirely condoned, even encouraged.
It's heartening to know that our government is so protective of our free speech, as long as we only say what they allow us to.
Yes. I never saw hate crime laws as being some altruistic thing. After, if a person murders someone, is the degree to which they hated them really a factor. Try them and convict them for the murder, not the hate. In a free society, we are free to hate. It's not a crime. I don't recommend it, but it is a right.
Common sense dictates that if someone murders someone else it surely isn't done with love in the perps heart. I've seen hate laws flipped totally due to race. If a black person murders a white person the chances of the black person being charged with a hate crime are very low. But the other way around? It HAS to be a hate crime because white people are the only ones that can be racist.
And much of this has nothing to do with hate speech. It is applied to smearing people who question crooked leadership and want investigations into wrongdoing regarding the electoral process. Whatever one's feeling is about hate crime laws, to a sane person it should be easy to tell the difference.
Thank you for this unnerving warning from the frontlines of New Normal Germany, CJ. I hope your Get-out-of-Germany Fund doesn’t become depleted by thoughtcrime legal expenses before you get a chance to use it.
It seems the propagandists’ attempt to divide-and-conquer the dissident community with the Israel-Palestine issue has wound up wreaking collateral damage in the Realm of Woke.
For those who want a primer on the latest iteration of this ancient tactic, I highly recommend Meredith Miller’s “Induction by Confusion—The Sequel” as well as her insightful conversation with Alec Zeck:

On the off chance that anyone here still hasn't bought and read The Rise of the New Normal Reich - may I thoroughly recommend it and encourage you to do so. In the spirit of its contents may I add; if it wasn't all so terrifying it would be f##king hilarious. Bravo CJ and please keep it coming.
Delighted to have my copy - via Amazon.ca in the early days . I'm thinking of digging a time capsule in our backyard and maybe some sort of being will find it and actually be able to read like we used to ; will be great in a museum for what were considered intact humans prior to alterations.
At a loss for benign words - the appropriate ones at this juncture - so I'll wish you a heartfelt Merry Christmas because you and us all must wish each other Godspeed.
So incredulous that your precious time and attention is being squandered by these goings-on.
Will think good thoughts, send positive energy, and conjure every euphemism I can come up with to wish you well and good in the coming year.
Just as an aside because I can barely contain myself (you, by the way, are doing a stellar job of it):
I don't know how they keep their respective ideologies and playbooks straight at this point. The whole mess is so convoluted that they don't know when they're the brunt of a joke anymore. Cheers.
Heinrich Boll is rolling over in his grave; "The Clown" is a great work of literature, with a sense of humor that sadly our Corporate Overlords totally lack. Ironically, Nazism, the ideology, is marching through the streets, but actual images of the Nazis are banned, because "They" are in the business of banning History; after all, you might get "infected" by some funny ideas if you know a bit about what preceded where we are today...
"And now they’re shocked and horrified that the fascist tactics they normalized are being used against them and the people they like. I’m pretty sure there is a famous quote by a German pastor that might be apposite here."
Scratch a liberal and you'll find a fascist. Pastor Niemoller, so often (deliberately) misquoted. It's telling that the line most often changed/eliminated is, "First they came for the Communists".
For thosev who haven't read Niemoller's (rediscovered?) prose written I think nearer the end of WWII:
“First they came for the Communists, but I was not a Communist so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Socialists and the Trade Unionists, but I was neither, so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Jews, but I was not a Jew so I did not speak out.
And when they came for me, there was no one left to speak out for me.” — Pastor Martin Niemoller
Apparently the Pastor was miss led if he thought that coming for the Communists was a bad thing. And what doesn't make sense and shows his ignorance is that communism and socialism are bed buddies. Seems to me that that list needs to be considered a good list these days. Well except for the Jews. Maybe we can weed out the bad ones and let the rest of them alone. Start with the psychopath control freak PARASITE "leader" of Israel.
Can't help but see Germany as Ireland of the future. Our kindly betters are busy trying to ram the most totalitarian "hate speech" laws in the whole West down our throats at the moment.
These are laws that don't even try to define "hate", allow the police to raid your house and confiscate all electronic devices and written materials, and which place the burden of proof on the accused to prove that they were not planning to disseminate any "hate" content found in their possession.
Shark-eyed narcissists and impossibly naive lemmings appear to be running the zoo, unfortunately.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every "law enforcer", when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in "fill in the city", when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with AR15's, Glocks, SIGS (USA VERSION) or whatever else was at hand?… The system would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of "the states" thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” - Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
Look CJ I feel so much affinity with your lashing out to the new normal reich (much bigger than Germany), something I unfortunately keep doing to my own detrimental position within friends and family, I would love to offer you and your wife a hide-out 100 km west of Berlin somewhere in the middle of nowhere in Sachsen-Anhalt from January 2nd to whenever you want. Quite comfortable and lots of likeminded around, not English speaking unfortunately. I keep my fingers crossed for whatever will happen next.
The absurdity of false-pride cowardice cops hiding behind ski masks in riot gear carrying guns the public is not allowed to brandish on the same street is…not hateful? How about the individuals who make the final call to lock someone in an inhumane prison or drops cluster bombs on people, whether it’s the very lazy-dumb or the too stupid-smart variety, like what’s happening in Palestine? Again, is that not hateful? I’m still trying to process how it’s not hate to be the individuals who invest, design, manufacture or orders the cops & soldiers to use these horrific weapons to murder people. Who’s more hateful? Are any of them hateful, at all, even mildly angry? And how do you accurately measure “bad” hate? How about those who will call me antisemitic for even asking these non-hateful, polite questions, or the people screaming in pain as they are being burned alive in the name of Zionism????
If I ever have to go kinetic it will be as follows...
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of men who wanted to be left alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love.

I believe at moments like the photo above they are sending in very particular types of privately or covert operators and not your standard cops. Operations I've seen have all the fingerprints of operators outside the norm using communications outside the system.
The whole good cop/bad cop question can be disposed of much more decisively. We need not enumerate what proportion of cops appears to be good or listen to someone's anecdote about his Uncle Charlie, an allegedly good cop. We need only consider the following: (1) a cop's job is to enforce the laws, all of them; (2) many of the laws are manifestly unjust, and some are even cruel and wicked; (3) therefore every cop has agreed to act as an enforcer for laws that are manifestly unjust or even cruel and wicked. Therefore there are no good cops. ~Dr. Robert Higgs
Why don't they charge themselves with hate crime because nothing is more hateful and despicable than arresting people for thinking.
I had the exact same thought!
Well they’ll be no wrong thinking if they chip the brains like they want.
It’s just nice to see those who helped to bring the hate speech insanity in get a taste of their own medicine. If they weren’t so vain vapid and morally corrupt they’d have known where it was heading and realise they’d been had early on helping to put a stop to it.

Some thoughts: https://drp314.substack.com/p/some-second-amendment-thoughts
Evidently they will. The 2nd amendment gives a facade of freedom. The USA citizenry has more guns than we know what to do with and still for the most part we’re apathetic low info isolated intimidated citizenry, especially Americans who aren’t well connected or protected by identity. To paraphrase CJ, the “woke” fascists aren’t playing grab ass. See 6th, January 2021. Owen Shroyer’s case. His politics and style may be different from yours or mine nonetheless he was persecuted/prosecuted/imprisoned for Wrong Think, Bad Speak, Being at the wrong place at the wrong time and having no class protection. This in the much ballyhooed land of the free and home of the brave.
Afghanistan and Yemen provide instructive counterexamples.
The difference being that the average frustrated Pashtun is far tougher, more determined and more resourceful than the average frustrated American lardass.
There are American veterans.
Yes, and?
Apparently you don't know too many Americans. There is a lot of difference between those that went to Afghanistan and the average country bumpkin red neck in Missouri, Arkansas, Tennessee or Oklahoma for starters.
I live in the American heartland and I know no shortage of veterans.
And of course, many of the rest of us, especially if we are white, are now classified as Domestic Terrorists, and they have gone from announcing they were spying on only 129000 of us to now over 2 million of us.
And the new Speaker of the House sees the Defense bill passed with a four month extension of warrantless spying included. And they recess until January. But he's so much better than the old Speaker.
They are ALL psychopathic control freak parasites. ALL of them. We need them like we need a tick up our ass.
Spy all you want. They can KMA!
Please note that it was in the strongly gun controlled areas that people were put in camps, and where civil rights were steamrolled over. In the US it was the strong gun-controlled states instituted such policies. At this time, Illinois is demanding that owners of "assault rifles" and magazines hold more than 10 rounds register them. Compliance is running at less than 1 percent. Connecticut and New York experienced similar situations upon demanding registration.
And what it all boils down to is this...THE ENFORCERS are going to have to decide. Are we on the PEOPLES side or the ELITE slave drivers side. If they pick elite...AIM SMALL MISS SMALL Just like the colonists did at Concord Green against King Georgies ENFORCERS. JUS MEUM TUEBOR.
Good points. I think the strong emphasis being placed on eliminating the 2A by the US gov is evidence that they do think it's a problem for them. Much of the effect is invisible, similar to how criminal protection rackets thrive in strong gun control areas, but you don't actually get organized criminals being shot in the others. Your points are well taken, but don't discount the unseen effects.
The 2nd amend. acts mainly as deterrent for the gov. If the government enacted a law that caused them to have to fight a little battle at most houses, they wouldn't be filling up the box cars as quickly or effectively, if the public was unarmed. The gov knows that there are laws that go too far, and so they are reluctant to try knowing they would lose control.
If you think an armed populace couldn't win against the better equipped and trained gov force
Then study what happened in Viet Nam, Cuba, or Afghanistan. The government knows it could not win, so it doesn't make laws that could or would provoke that outcome. The 2nd is a deterrent, and it works.

If the "pandemic" taught us anything, it's that many people will enthusiastically board the boxcars.
Unfortunately. Many won’t as well. The pandemic showed that half the population would load the other half on the boxcars.
Except Canadian truckers!
You know the "joke" ~
For 21st-century humans now, with the new injectables, the "boxcar" is getting into THEM ...
A new take on the new reality, er, I mean new normal.
In Oz, They took all our guns. Well, except for the crims and the Lebanese drug cartels. Only cops have guns now. There's a great riddle: 1 knife, 3 people, 2 apples... So, where does one get a gun? .... 😶
Some quotes you might like:
"The totalitarian states can do great things, but there is one thing they cannot do: they cannot give the factory-worker a rifle and tell him to take it home and keep it in his bedroom. That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage, is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there." - George Orwell
“Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act of depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest.” Mahatma Gandhi
When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred. - Niccolo Machiavelli
"The notion that you can somehow defeat violence by submitting to it is simply a flight from fact. As I have said, it is only possible to people who have money and guns between themselves and reality." - George Orwell, 1941
"We maintain [privately-owned] arms largely because we seek to prevent violence. Those that wish to disarm us do so that they may perpetrate it with impunity." - R. Murray
The most terrifying Tyrant is They who imposes Their Will "for your own good". They must die. That would be good 👍 Ayyy!
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." ~ C. S. Lewis
🙏🧠
Or this one from Alexander Solzhenitsyn
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of men who wanted to be left alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over.
The moment the men who wanted to be left alone are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up violence, these men who wanted to be left alone, fight with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives. They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror. TRUE TERROR will arrive at these people's door, and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy... but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the men who just wanted to be left alone." ~Soviet Dissident Alexander Solzhenitsyn.
So JUST KEEP PUSHING...and once evil is no longer sufferable...REAP THE WHIRLWIND!
A false flag in Port Arthur did the trick.
The same was done in Christchurch, NZ. And in Dunblane, Scotland. All coincidences not doubt. </sarc
Weeeell, there MIGHT have been a LITTLE MK Ultra Deep State involvement. Naaaahhh, just a Cohencidence.
"Only cops have guns now."

Would you trust a present OZ gun owner?
Sir, I am in my sixties, I'm familiar with the Pigs. 😶 I see a police weapon, I mean, person, and I flinch in fear and hatred. They are there to CRUSH US. To preserve Statist Status Quo Controls. I got pulled up the other day by a gun wielding, government sanctioned Highwayman, called "Highway Patrol". He sauntered over arrogantly, hitching up his weapons belt, with Glock, Taser, Baton, Pepper Spray and handcuffs all prominently displaying his Sanction and proceeded to interrogate me. It really sunk in; take the fucking sneering scold - or kill him... 16,000 armed gangsters back him up in New South Wales alone, the state I'm in. Not really an option until they come for the dissidents. Then, well, I know how to get a gun, yeah. But will hopefully die on my feet, as a man, not a fucking borg. When They start filling the Australian Concentration Camps, I ain't going to act like I don't know the score. The WHOWEFUN must be destroyed, or we will be murdered by our own Elite$.
We are about the same age. You may or may not make the connection to what I'm saying here, but like I have said countless times in the last decade: "If Israel is not stopped, and soon, we will all be Palestinians sooner than you know it."
I know the US sends their cops to Israel to enhance their education. I wonder dose OZ and AU do that?
Get this: my state, NSW, has used IDF TRAINING in Crowd Suppression, as has several other state police mafia here. Already, our Canberra (capitol) Australian Federal Police have used a MICROWAVE WEAPON on peaceful protestors. E.N.E.M.Y. ACTION.

Also, Aged Care, find the Terminal, the Regretful and convince them to wear a 💣 vest and visit board meetings 😀 Purely as an intellectual exercise 👏 you DO understando, oui?
My thoughts exactly!
Your crime is you are educated and ask questions. The overlords hate those with independent thought(s). It is anathemic to the goal of de-education and control.
The deliberate miseducation of the American people...the dumbing-down effect...was the brainchild of John D. Rottenfeller, the original Robber Baron. Recruiting "philosopher" John Dewey, along with old Yankee stalwart James Bryant Conant; Rottenfeller set about granting Columbia University massive funding for a college of education in that institution.
Columbia's college of edumacasion became the template for similar iterations right across the fruited plain.
Year by year and decade by decade, the educable young, forced to attend these governmentally controlled "public" schools, were gradually exposed to progressively less substantial courses, while psychologically bought off by intramural sports and similar diversions from a curriculum based upon the principle of inculcating and augmenting the capacity for original thought and critical faculties.
The devolution of true education has become so debased that the vast majority of high school graduates would be incapable of operating the "old-fashioned" cash-registers. Their mathematical skills have been so utterly debased by "new math" and related obfuscations of the learning process that their life-skills levels have consistently deteriorated.
There are many accounts of young "adults" not even being able to manage a simple checkbook. They cannot deal with cash in most transactions, rather bonding to electronic manifestations which are so thoughtlessly easy and convenient.
It's all a matter of pattern and design by the ruling financier elite.
Recently, I gave a woman a fifty dollar bill at a well known grocery store. She literally could not give me the change back. After telling her how to do this and then sensing her skepticism even after she had finished, I had to show her how to check herself (and my change). After it was all over, I was convinced she still didn’t trust any of it. Fortunately, a man standing behind me encouraged her to go through the entire process, but he seemed as stunned as I was.
I went to an art store in town where a recent grad from a highly rated high school helped me with my order. I'd like a mat cut to 2 by 3 feet, I said. They informed me the measurement needed to be in inches. So I explained, there's 12 inches to a foot, so.... that would be ... I slowed to see if this was enough.... then continued.... 24 by 36 inches. OK they said. Oblivious to their own lassitude and ignorance. Oy!
From the movie "Ride With The Devil" 1999. Toby McGuire, Jewell and Skeet Ulrich
Note what is being said about the school... I believe that movie was the most accurate well done "Civil War" movie I've ever seen.
Mr. Evans: Have you ever been to Lawrence, Kansas, young man?
Chiles: No, I reckon not, Mr. Evans. I don't believe I'd be too welcome in Lawrence.
Mr. Evans: I didn't think so. Before this war began, my business took me there often. As I saw those Northerners build that town, I witnessed the seeds of our destruction being sown. The foundin' of that town was truly the beginnin' of the Yankee invasion. I'm not speakin' of numbers, nor even abolitionist trouble-makin'.
It was the schoolhouse. Before they built their church, even, they built that schoolhouse. And they let in every tailor's son... and every farmer's daughter in that country.
Chiles: Spellin' won't help you hold a plow any firmer. Or a gun either.
Mr. Evens: No, it won't, Mr. Chiles. But my point is merely... that they rounded every pup up into that schoolhouse... because they fancied that everyone should think... and talk the same free-thinkin' way they do... with no regard to station, custom, propriety. And that is why they will win. Because they believe everyone should live and think just like them. And we shall lose because we don't care one way or another...how they live. We just worry about ourselves.
Chiles: Are you sayin', sir, that we fight for nothin'?
Mr. Evans: Far from it, Mr. Chiles. You fight for everything that we ever had. As did my son.

Math skill loss can be made up by smart devices unless the power grid or internet fail. The revision of history with loss and destruction of European and American History in favor of Balkanized history is being played out before our eyes with revisiting 1930s Germany in America.
If you rely on smart gadgets you don't learn to recognize the logic & patterns behind the maths. So you don't learn or practice thinking.
In grade school, my teachers had a couple students who would get extra/advanced lessons to work out on our own while the rest of the class learned the lesson of the day. In jr high, they dropped the "tracking program, instead expecting the bright students to assist the mediocre & dim. That, naturally led to the bright being hated & bullied by the rest. I learned new lessons in the 1st 5 minutes of math & Spanish, then learned to sit quietly & entertain myself for hours. My grades dropped, the school recommended I be sent to private. The only fight my father ever won against my mother. "Education is wasted on girrrls!" he sneered.
So in my liberal school I learned to wait. First to wait to get out of school. Then to wait tables. Then to wait for a decent opportunity. Then to wait for a good opportunity. Then to wait to retire. Now I wait to die.
Once completed a shortened, 20 minute mensa test in 5 minutes. Iq 155. All a fucking waste thanks to rotten to the core American Way.
Holly shit! I have an IQ of a meezly 127. In other words, 1,5% of the population in my country have a higher IQ than me. I was lucky, and the future in my past was a whole lot brighter than yours.
Tis is all thanks to the Rockefeller donation to create the Education Department. In 1994 there was an education reformation here. Now kids start in fist grade at the age of six instead of seven, and they've lowered the standards. Schools now chern out kids that are more or less useless.
This is evident in journalism in particular. Their main tool is language, and they are totally lacking in the skils of its use.
A George Carline rant full of truth:
But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education SUCKS, and it’s the same reason it will never, ever, EVER be fixed.
It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you’ve got.
Because the owners, the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now, the BIG owners! The Wealthy… the REAL owners! The big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions.
Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice! You have OWNERS! They OWN YOU. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls.
They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying, to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don’t want:
They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. that's against their interests.
That's right. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table and think about how badly they’re getting f&$#%d by a system that threw them overboard 30 f&@&@%$g years ago. They don’t want that!
You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shitty jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your Social Security money. They want your retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all from you sooner or later cause they own this f@&@%g place! It's a big club, and you ain’t in it! You, and I, are not in the big club.
By the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table has tilted folks. The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care! Good honest hard-working people; white collar, blue collar it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-working people continue, these are people of modest means, continue to elect these rich cock suckers who don’t give a f%@k about you….they don’t give a f@%k about you… they don’t give a F@&K about you.
They don’t care about you at all… at all… AT ALL. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. that's what the owners count on. The fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue d@&k that's being jammed up their a%@$#*s everyday, because the owners of this country know the truth.
It's called the American Dream,because you have to be asleep to believe it. ~ George Carlin
Thanks for that one, CL. Saved for future use.
I failed the SAT tests in High School 100%. I got EVERY question wrong. Because of it, I was called down to the principals office. They told me that it was IMPOSSIBLE to get every question wrong unless I knew the answers. To which I replied, What difference does it make? I won't get a scholarship and I sure can't afford to go to a decent college because I don't have the funds and my parents cant afford to send me, so it really doesn't matter now does it? You know what they did? Flipped my score to 100% correct. Did it make any difference...Not really, I still ended up in the trades as a plumber and I've done OK for myself and family. And I guess "OK" is OK. We did give up $1,000,000 in salary over a 20 year period from my wife as a registered nurse so that we could homeschool our four home birthed sons. Who never had a SINGLE vaccination. Yeah, we're different. I don't have a human heart. I have one of a raging LION! JUS MEUM TUEBOR!
Some thoughts on how schools might be reformed. Talk to your local school board, but good luck.
https://drp314.substack.com/p/things-not-taught-in-school
I’ve always made a point of giving my children cash to use, once they get used to the notes and coinage they understand far better than numbers on a screen plus it helps no end mathematically.
From around 6+7 we gave them a budget to work with for Xmas presents which made them learn to budget on focusing on what they really wanted instead of lists of useless junk.
The oldest is now in an engineering apprenticeship, he turned down his spot at uni and also still works his Saturday job, he sets that money to one side for his car insurance, running and any maintenance needed.
Youngest is doing her A levels plus working 2-3 shifts on evening at McDonald’s and has a Saturday job also.
Both have friends who have worked far longer than them and never have single penny left at the end of the month waiting for the next payday, both mine have commented on the craziness of it.
The lack of parents participation in educating their children on finance skills is astounding and has made it so easy for the system to manipulate them.
My husband was reluctant when I wanted to introduce the budgeting idea for our children, he was more of buying whatever they wanted whenever they wanted, I brought him round by stating we’d be doing them no favours and the proof has been in the pudding where some of their peers have not a single idea on money management.

Your use of “Fat lady” makes me think of the original word scourge in the 70’s.
The decade of “male child” and “handypeople” at least gave us the satirical Governor “Neloffspring Rockeperson”
“Birthing-person-of-size” perhaps?
OK, I'm stealing "birthing person of size".
I am reading Franz Josef Kafka "The Trial" for the very first time & would like for you to share more of your prosody & how its salience is connected to your trial. Do we as readers really understand the chief reason for the man's troubles?
Person hole covers in the streets.
The good news from America is that not all hate speech is banned. Just as Germany in the 1930s condoned hate speech against Jews, here in the States today, hate speech against Trump is entirely condoned, even encouraged.
It's heartening to know that our government is so protective of our free speech, as long as we only say what they allow us to.
We let them pass hate crime laws which makes it easier to pass hate speech laws. All a very slippery slope!
Yes. I never saw hate crime laws as being some altruistic thing. After, if a person murders someone, is the degree to which they hated them really a factor. Try them and convict them for the murder, not the hate. In a free society, we are free to hate. It's not a crime. I don't recommend it, but it is a right.
Common sense dictates that if someone murders someone else it surely isn't done with love in the perps heart. I've seen hate laws flipped totally due to race. If a black person murders a white person the chances of the black person being charged with a hate crime are very low. But the other way around? It HAS to be a hate crime because white people are the only ones that can be racist.
Yup.
And much of this has nothing to do with hate speech. It is applied to smearing people who question crooked leadership and want investigations into wrongdoing regarding the electoral process. Whatever one's feeling is about hate crime laws, to a sane person it should be easy to tell the difference.
Thank you for this unnerving warning from the frontlines of New Normal Germany, CJ. I hope your Get-out-of-Germany Fund doesn’t become depleted by thoughtcrime legal expenses before you get a chance to use it.
It seems the propagandists’ attempt to divide-and-conquer the dissident community with the Israel-Palestine issue has wound up wreaking collateral damage in the Realm of Woke.

Great piece, thank you for sharing!
On the off chance that anyone here still hasn't bought and read The Rise of the New Normal Reich - may I thoroughly recommend it and encourage you to do so. In the spirit of its contents may I add; if it wasn't all so terrifying it would be f##king hilarious. Bravo CJ and please keep it coming.
Delighted to have my copy - via Amazon.ca in the early days . I'm thinking of digging a time capsule in our backyard and maybe some sort of being will find it and actually be able to read like we used to ; will be great in a museum for what were considered intact humans prior to alterations.
I purchased the paper copy.

I've always wondered how the Germans got ahead since it seems they have to say twice the amount of words as someone who speaks English would.
The German sentence has one word fewer than the English one😁
At a loss for benign words - the appropriate ones at this juncture - so I'll wish you a heartfelt Merry Christmas because you and us all must wish each other Godspeed.
So incredulous that your precious time and attention is being squandered by these goings-on.
Will think good thoughts, send positive energy, and conjure every euphemism I can come up with to wish you well and good in the coming year.
Just as an aside because I can barely contain myself (you, by the way, are doing a stellar job of it):
I don't know how they keep their respective ideologies and playbooks straight at this point. The whole mess is so convoluted that they don't know when they're the brunt of a joke anymore. Cheers.
All this fascism/authoritarianism-in-defense-of-safety/freedom/democracy would be merely tedious if it wasn't so fucking dangerous.
Heinrich Boll is rolling over in his grave; "The Clown" is a great work of literature, with a sense of humor that sadly our Corporate Overlords totally lack. Ironically, Nazism, the ideology, is marching through the streets, but actual images of the Nazis are banned, because "They" are in the business of banning History; after all, you might get "infected" by some funny ideas if you know a bit about what preceded where we are today...
And yet it's OK to fund Nazi's in Ukraine so that they can murder people who are not Nazi's. Go figure.
To censor "hate speech" is to eliminate free speech.
"And now they’re shocked and horrified that the fascist tactics they normalized are being used against them and the people they like. I’m pretty sure there is a famous quote by a German pastor that might be apposite here."
Scratch a liberal and you'll find a fascist. Pastor Niemoller, so often (deliberately) misquoted. It's telling that the line most often changed/eliminated is, "First they came for the Communists".
For thosev who haven't read Niemoller's (rediscovered?) prose written I think nearer the end of WWII:
“First they came for the Communists, but I was not a Communist so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Socialists and the Trade Unionists, but I was neither, so I did not speak out.
Then they came for the Jews, but I was not a Jew so I did not speak out.
And when they came for me, there was no one left to speak out for me.” — Pastor Martin Niemoller
Apparently the Pastor was miss led if he thought that coming for the Communists was a bad thing. And what doesn't make sense and shows his ignorance is that communism and socialism are bed buddies. Seems to me that that list needs to be considered a good list these days. Well except for the Jews. Maybe we can weed out the bad ones and let the rest of them alone. Start with the psychopath control freak PARASITE "leader" of Israel.
Can't help but see Germany as Ireland of the future. Our kindly betters are busy trying to ram the most totalitarian "hate speech" laws in the whole West down our throats at the moment.
These are laws that don't even try to define "hate", allow the police to raid your house and confiscate all electronic devices and written materials, and which place the burden of proof on the accused to prove that they were not planning to disseminate any "hate" content found in their possession.
Shark-eyed narcissists and impossibly naive lemmings appear to be running the zoo, unfortunately.
Much love from the burgeoning Irish Total State.
Some of us are hopeing Irish resistance will go kinetic, a reawakening so to speak. & lead the way
A spark of hope what with the hotel fire to get a conflagration started.
Same as before guns & money now, lawyers later.
"Irish lives matter"
Bet Leo hates that phrase.
Paraphrased Alternate USA view
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every "law enforcer", when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in "fill in the city", when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with AR15's, Glocks, SIGS (USA VERSION) or whatever else was at hand?… The system would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of "the states" thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” - Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
Look CJ I feel so much affinity with your lashing out to the new normal reich (much bigger than Germany), something I unfortunately keep doing to my own detrimental position within friends and family, I would love to offer you and your wife a hide-out 100 km west of Berlin somewhere in the middle of nowhere in Sachsen-Anhalt from January 2nd to whenever you want. Quite comfortable and lots of likeminded around, not English speaking unfortunately. I keep my fingers crossed for whatever will happen next.
The absurdity of false-pride cowardice cops hiding behind ski masks in riot gear carrying guns the public is not allowed to brandish on the same street is…not hateful? How about the individuals who make the final call to lock someone in an inhumane prison or drops cluster bombs on people, whether it’s the very lazy-dumb or the too stupid-smart variety, like what’s happening in Palestine? Again, is that not hateful? I’m still trying to process how it’s not hate to be the individuals who invest, design, manufacture or orders the cops & soldiers to use these horrific weapons to murder people. Who’s more hateful? Are any of them hateful, at all, even mildly angry? And how do you accurately measure “bad” hate? How about those who will call me antisemitic for even asking these non-hateful, polite questions, or the people screaming in pain as they are being burned alive in the name of Zionism????
If I ever have to go kinetic it will be as follows...
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of men who wanted to be left alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over.
The moment the men who wanted to be left alone are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up violence, these men who wanted to be left alone, fight with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives. They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror. TRUE TERROR will arrive at these people's door, and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy... but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the men who just wanted to be left alone." ~Soviet Dissident Alexander Solzhenitsyn https://www.courageouslion.us/p/i-just-want-to-be-left-alone
I believe at moments like the photo above they are sending in very particular types of privately or covert operators and not your standard cops. Operations I've seen have all the fingerprints of operators outside the norm using communications outside the system.
The whole good cop/bad cop question can be disposed of much more decisively. We need not enumerate what proportion of cops appears to be good or listen to someone's anecdote about his Uncle Charlie, an allegedly good cop. We need only consider the following: (1) a cop's job is to enforce the laws, all of them; (2) many of the laws are manifestly unjust, and some are even cruel and wicked; (3) therefore every cop has agreed to act as an enforcer for laws that are manifestly unjust or even cruel and wicked. Therefore there are no good cops. ~Dr. Robert Higgs
