Why Are So Many Good Things Being Destroyed?

[pipedreams]

From the Boy Scouts to literature, from the arts to universities:

the left ruins everything it touches. Dennis Prager explains.

because happy, emotionally stable people are harder to make money off of, or have power over.

At the end of the day you either serve good or serve evil, either you are light or you are darkness.

It's right vs. wrong.

We've spent a lot of money telling at least three generations that there is no right or wrong.

I think I saw this in a signature line around here, but this time we may not see it coming back to us:

 

- Bad times create Republicans.

- Republicans create good times.

- Good times create Democrats.

- Democrats create bad times.

Most human beings are herd animals. Herd animals need a leader. Good times comes with lots of freedom, and Freedom doesn't need leaders, we have to be our own leaders.

Now, those weak herd animals still crave for leadership since they can't manage their own lives. So they vote for more leadership, more control, more regulations, more handouts, hence Democratic politicians. Democratic politicians are no true leaders though, they are just from the same weak flock, and they are power hungry. They don't do, they only talk, much like Biden who never held a real job.

Humans are either makers, or takers. When takers vote other takers into office, for example politicians that will shift wealth from tax payers to takers, you have a so called lose:lose situation.

Problem is, that the weak herd animals that vote for Democrats don't understand that they vote for a losing system, that turns makers into even more takers. At some point you will have too many takers and not enough makers (for example tax payers, job creators, inventors), and the card house will falter. After that you will still have those power hungry Democratic politicians in power, and they don't want to give it back, or admit that their system failed, as to be seen in Venezuela and many other socialistic places. Now the entire country will find itself in a one party dictatorship. Everybody who objects will face severe consequences. We see the first signs these days with the cancel culture and censorship. Just leaving the system like all those idiots moving from California to Taxes, after they destroyed the state by voting Democrats into place, will not work anymore at this stage. Travel bans will make it hard to get out, or they will tax people heavily for leaving the country, or other countries won't offer any visas for US citizens when they try to flee in droves.

As I said in the past, if people stick with the Democrats in 4 years, I will leave the country and take everything I have created with me. I will not be a part of a lose:lose equation and pay for a system that feeds losers on both ends, all while losing my rights and being told what I can say, what I can do, and who I am. Not going to happen.

If I wasn't 73, I'd move the hell out of here in 4 years too.  My buddy of 30 years, My age now, just said "Screw this place" after the election was Stolen, and Built himself a house on the ocean in Costa Rica, and is just kick back lovin it.  He's now building another house to Rent out.    "America" is gone.

You can't win a war when the vast majority long gave up. The only remaining issue is the fact that most don't want to accept the new reality. By the time they do, its way too late for any easy way out.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket, no matter how old you are.

Devolution, and being out-bred. Those bastards breed like bunnies, because they are PAID to. 

I often lamented that we needed a GOOD plague. Instead, we got Covid. Perhaps we just need the meteor, or for Yellowstone to blast off. I ain't moving somewhere tropical. Hell, I still might end up in Colorado. But I guarangoddamntee you I'm taking all my guns and magazines.

I ain't neither.

I am 71 years old.

If government agents kick in my door to seize my firearms or imprison me for wanting to be free and left alone, the first government thug through the door gets a controlled pair of 230 grain .45 ACP bullets to the ballistic vest.  The next five thugs return fire and kill me and that is exactly the way I want it.  I would rather die a free man than live enslaved.

It is getting closer to the time when those Americans that value freedom over conformity and surrender act like those in Hong Kong and Burma.

 It is easy to protest and riot when one knows there will be no consequence.  Just ask the Antifa and BLM yahoos.

It is harder to stand up and refuse to be silenced when the fascists have all of the guns and their agents of oppression do not hesitate to use them.

It is one thing to whine on some obscure internet forum about the loss of liberty and the dignity of self-determination.

It is quite another thing to be willing to die for it.

 

Here's to the brave resisters to fascism  in Hong Kong and  Burma.

Counter culture always ruins everything, but the next wave of counter culture destroys the previous one.

I can’t take the farms with me, and where the hell would I go, anyway?  In what country is it any better?
