COVID-1984: a Timeline in Memes

The virus breaks out in Wuhan, China–a city of about 11 million people (bigger than the most populated city in the USA). There are two virology labs in Wuhan, which study, experiment on, and modify viruses. For years, scientists have been warning that the sloppy security at one of these labs (the one which develops weapons-grade viruses, and sits at the epicenter of the outbreak), plus the dietary practices of the local population, was a ticking time bomb.

Early whistleblowers warning of the breakout are arrested by Chinese police. Many are never seen or heard from again. One doctor, after being arrested, later was reported dead–allegedly because of the virus. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which controls all human activity in China (and a lot of the MSM and Hollywood messaging you’re inundated with every day), lies about every aspect of the outbreak, including the number of infected and dead. They claim that the virus originated in a “wet market” which doesn’t sell the species of bat the virus supposedly came from, and is located 400 miles from the nearest habitat of those bats. A third of the first victims had no connection, direct or indirect, to the wet market.

“President” (dictator) Xi locks down Wuhan and other cities in China. No travel is permitted from Wuhan to other parts of China, but travel from Wuhan to the rest of the world is allowed to continue unchecked. The virus begins spreading to other countries.

A Chinese traveler brings the virus to the USA. The first American is diagnosed with the Wuhan Virus.

President Trump restricts travel from China. In following days, he restricts travel from other countries. Predictably, the Democrat/Media Machine says he’s overreacting and calls him racist.

Another Chi-Com puppet, the World Health Organization (WHO), regurgitates Chinese propaganda downplaying the seriousness of the outbreak. They also rename it “COVID-19” in a lame attempt to disassociate the virus from the Communist regime it came from.

Leftist judges overrule the travel restrictions, allowing more infected carriers into the USA. Leftist mayors and governors, still upholding the “racist overreaction” narrative, encourage people to attend parades and other mass gatherings like nothing is out of the ordinary.

The Wuhan Virus spreads through the USA. The WHO finally admits that this is a pandemic.

Overnight, the narrative changes: now President Trump didn’t react strongly enough. It’s all his fault. Because racism, somehow. “Black and brown people” are more at risk to the virus. Yeah–that’s it: racism.

Another Chinese Communist puppet, the NBA, suspends the rest of its season. Other sports leagues follow suit. Leftist governors begin illegally shutting down their states. (It’s not just politicians and bureaucrats at the Federal level who have been colluding with the CCP for years, but also governors of both political parties.)

De facto dictators of several states continue showing their true colors.  They forbid church attendance and family gatherings, outlaw random items like paint or carpet, but keep “essential” businesses open–like liquor stores, marijuana shops, and state lottery kiosks. They have people arrested for going to church and synagogue, for playing with their kids in a park, sitting alone on a beach, or criticizing politicians for these illegal police state policies, while releasing convicted felons from prisons and onto the streets.

Gun sales are “non-essential,” of course, so law-abiding citizens are kept defenseless while chaos is being engineered all around them.  Surgeries and other medical procedures are banned, but abortion clinics are declared “essential” and kept open.

The public is told that a collapse of our medical system is imminent and hospitals will be overrun with coronavirus patients; that there’s not enough ventilators, testers or masks, and it’s all Trump’s fault. Meanwhile hospitals are laying off staff and going bankrupt because most of what they do has been declared “non-essential.” Leftist Trump-haters are found to have been wasting or hoarding medical supplies, all while blaming the President for “shortages.”

In a matter of weeks, 30 million Americans lose their jobs–worse than any time ever in history–including the Great Depression. The President and some in Congress sponsor a stimulus bill that includes $1,200 checks for citizens and loans to sustain the small businesses which have been forced to furlough workers and close down.

The Democrats try to sneak in a pay raise for themselves, “aid” to foreign countries and illegal aliens, and more tax dollars to subsidize the abortion industry. They succeed in getting “refugee resettlement,” funding for the Kennedy Center, National Endowment for the Arts, and other pet pork projects, included in the bill. In fact, they refused to pass it until this “compromise” was reached. The Fed, by the way, is favoring “woke capital” with these loans, while dissing small businesses.

While the Democrat/Media Machine is busy hyping the danger of the virus, as justification for the totalitarian crackdown they’ve wanted for a long time (plus wrecking the economy just before an election, protecting their candidate from debates and scrutiny, justifying massive election fraud via mail-in-voting, etc.), they also launch a propaganda campaign against inexpensive, effective treatments for the virus.

Bill Gates, who is on record advocating world population reduction via vaccination (and whose vaccinations have already caused horrible death and suffering in Africa and India) waits in the wings with a vaccination that he hopes his allies in government will make mandatory.

Hospital personnel are pressured to inflate the numbers of coronavirus deaths, to reinforce the narrative that the pandemic is so dangerous that it justifies destroying millions of people’s lives. Citizens are forbidden to get fresh air and sunshine, and kept under “house arrest” in enclosed spaces where danger of infection is multiplied.

 

Tyrants in government use the opportunity presented by this crisis to spy on citizens with drones, track their smartphones, and get people to spy on their neighbors.

They refuse to take action regarding filth-ridden homeless populations massed together (a hotbed for the spread of viruses and disease), but arrest and fine people going about normal business.

This post is for all of you who are capable of pattern recognition.

The Shelter-in-Place Book Sale

There’s a lot of stuff going on right now. Some of the “solutions” to COVID-19/the Wuhan Coronavirus are wrong, infuriating, and scary. In the short term, a lot of us are worried about our jobs–will they even exist once this mess blows over?

People around the world are worried about putting food on the table. For those in that position, I urge you to be as wise as you can with what resources you have.

A Letter to Our Nominal Representatives

Below is a letter that I will be sending to Congress and the White House, as a wise citizen suggested we do. I advise everyone who doesn’t want the USA to become a third-world police state to tell them something similar. You can use this as a template, or even copy-paste it. I don’t mind.

I can guarantee you that if we don’t at least try, then nothing will change. Evil prospers when good men do nothing.

Dear Politician:

I want a stop to foreign aid to China. In fact, stop giving it to all nations that hate us.

I want a roll-back of the regulations and taxes that make it impossible for American manufacturers to compete with China’s slave labor sweatshops.

I want a wall on our southern border and a stop to all handouts to illegal aliens. I want you to put Americans first for a change.

I want you to quit letting big tech firms have their cake and eat it too: either they are utilities and are not allowed to censor anybody; or they are private companies that can censor, and can therefore be held accountable for what they don’t censor.

I want the law upheld–and not just the laws that you personally approve of. Punish criminals; quit trying to punish citizens who have done nothing wrong, but only exercised their rights, which you swore to protect.

I am keeping this message short because public servants obviously have a problem with reading comprehension–otherwise they would understand the phrase “shall not be infringed.”

In the Midst of Crisis is Opportunity

You may remember that corrupt globalist Rahm Immanuel admitted that philosophy on television. But he didn’t come up with it on his own–the left has been using crises to manipulate the masses for generations. And their solutions always result in more power for them and less freedom for us…by sheer coincidence, of course.

You can bet that the would-be  oligarchs infesting our government will try to use the COVID 19 outbreak to give us more of the same, good and hard. But this post isn’t about documenting more  fundamental transformation (or “frog-boiling”) by those who hate America.

The big question I have is: are you ready to start pushing back? If so, then it’s time to take advantage of the enemy’s Hegelian tactic and turn it against them.

 

We have a rare window of opportunity right now, that will slam shut as soon as our overlords can cram the relevant facts down the memory hole. We need to strike while the window is open.

Even normies and left-leaning sheeple are suddenly questioning the wisdom of outsourcing all our industrial capability (including the production of medicine) to a totalitarian nation that hates us and assumes that war with the USA is inevitable.

This episode of Tucker Carlson is must-watch, if you haven’t seen it already. The COVID 19 scare is so profound that even the milquetoast talking heads on Cux News are questioning our suicidal economic and foreign policies. Which means that being sold out by our leaders to Communist China is at least grazing the awareness of average people.

If there ever was a time when our alleged representatives might listen to us and at least consider putting the interests of Americans first, this is it. Call them. Write them. Email them.  Demand that they put an end to our carefully manufactured dependence on China for our supply infrastructure.

Who do they serve? Who do you serve?

After Pearl Harbor, when he was being congratulated for the wildly successful sneak attack that crippled the American Pacific Fleet, Admiral Yamamoto famously said:

“I fear we have awakened a sleeping giant, and filled him with a terrible resolve.”

 

No doubt part of what Yamamoto was worried about was America’s manufacturing potential. The Great Depression had shut a lot of our factories down, but we ramped up in record time and our assembly lines pumped out the weapons that crushed the Axis under the weight of overwhelming numbers. The USA became the greatest industrial powerhouse the world had ever seen, outproducing Japan, Germany, and Italy combined. Outproducing the entire world, in fact.

But what if, prior to Pearl Harbor, we had outsourced all our manufacturing capability to Japan and Germany? What if we had let them gobble up our national resources? What if they had bought our factories, oil wells, coal mines, railroads, and harbors? What if succeeding Presidents had given them our best weapons technology and strategic secrets? What if our “leaders” had engineered a situation where our enemies could  control the Panama Canal? What if our enemies were allowed to raid our Patent Office and universities and steal our intellectual property, then produce our inventions at slave labor prices and put American innovators out of business? What if we were in the habit of GIVING money to the Axis as foreign aid, then BORROWING it back from them at interest? What if the Axis Powers had de facto control over our media and entertainment industry, so that most Americans would only encounter ideas that the Axis approved of? What if anybody who protested such a massive sellout was dismissed as a crackpot or demonized as a racist?

There would have been no sleeping giant to worry about–just a sleeping couch potato; the giant would have been dead.

 

The situation is much worse than what I described because, frankly, you wouldn’t have the patience to read through an exhaustive list of all the ways we have been sold out to the most murderous regime in recorded history. Pre-war Japan didn’t want war with America nearly as much as Red China does. But our public servants who built China into a superpower have also made us dependent on that Communist dictatorship.

What happens when they decide it’s finally time for a shooting war with us? Do you assume they’re going to keep supplying us medicine for our troops that they wound in the field, and spare parts for our military vehicles and electronic equipment? We sure as hell can’t make that stuff here anymore, unless a lot of policies change. And they have to change now (while COVID 19 is getting people’s attention by disrupting our hijacked supply chain) before the giant couch potato goes back to sleep.

Why Are the Democrats Afraid of Bernie Sanders?

In 2016 the DNC rigged the primary against Bernie, in favor of Hillary. This year, it appears they rigged the Iowa Caucus against him, and maybe even the New Hampshire primary was rigged to make his victory there look less decisive than it was in reality.

The charismatic puppets on TV and the relentless Deep State shills writing online “news” articles insist that the big Democrat Party donors are opposed to Bernie because he’s a socialist, and his dangerous policy proposals scare them. Half of that has some truth to it, but the other half is disinformation.

Democrats (and Establishment RINOs) have been ramming socialist policies down our collective throat since the New Deal. They have denied that they are socialist/communist and demonized everyone who made effective arguments proving such. They’ve enjoyed plausible deniability because, as they were transforming the USA from an industrial powerhouse and the most prosperous country in history into an economic trainwreck up to its ears in debt that can never be repaid; they also reduced a huge proportion of the electorate into ignorant, illiterate parasites who wouldn’t know a communist from a commuter train, a lemon from a Leninist, or a Trotskyite from a trolley car.

While the socialists (semantically disguising themselves with flattering labels like “liberal”) have systematically poisoned our economy, making themselves richer while working Americans became poorer, they’ve been able to avoid the ultimate financial collapse via unlimited deficit spending and manipulation of interest rates through some of the subversive tools they have institutionalized. They’ve been able to kick the can down the road for generations, ratcheting the noose around Uncle Sam’s neck, blaming the consequences of their socialist policies on the free market, which justifies even more socialist policies to the gullible electorate addicted to their propaganda outlets–all while denying that they, or their policies, are socialist.

Along comes Bernie (and the Squad), who openly admits his socialist ideology and intentions, and the deniability becomes less plausible. The dumbed-down TV/social media junkies in the suburbs are confused, because some of their svengalis are now admitting  what most of them deny. Not only that, but Bernie is talking about tightening the noose so much, so fast, that even some of the corporate grifters of woke capital (big Democrat Party donors) would probably have to suffer consequences right along with their middle class victims.

And that’s a bridge too far.

Denise McAllister Speaks Truth in an Age of Lies

You mean we shouldn’t have revamped the American Armed Forces based on what Hollywood taught us?

The problem is that we allow fiction to be “proofs” of reality. I can’t tell you how many times when I’ve talked about women being physically weaker than men and that this is why they shouldn’t be in combat, I get the response, “But just look at Brianne of Tarth” (from “Game of Thrones”) or even the fictionalized accounts of Joan of Arc, whose combat role has been highly exaggerated.

Fiction can be a great vehicle to change how we think, and this has happened when it comes to equalizing men and women through the preponderance of female superheroes and “strong” women in film. We have been brainwashed into actually believing women can be just like men in the physical arena.

This is simply not the case, and it’s dangerous to think otherwise.

The USA has not had to face an enemy with comparable technology in a shooting war since WWII. The next time it does, it will probably suffer tactical catastrophes worse than any battle since the Little Bighorn. The combat arms are being packed with (and led by) women, foreigners, and sexual deviants, standards are plummeting, and the field grade officers who command them are fickle opportunists much more competent at backstabbing political games than at war fighting.

Nobody with the ability to prevent this scenario made any effort to do so. The public at large had been pre-programmed to accept it. And Hollywood is getting even more pozzed by the day. It will take a disaster like we’ve never seen to make Joe Public question The Narrative and demand a return to sanity. Can America survive such a disaster?

Denise McAllister’s book covers more than just Warrior Womyn in pop culture.  If a lot of people read it, and realize how Homowood is mind-screwing us, they could strive to make this a better world. Read her interview with David Dubrow.

 

Audio Book Follies

Followers may have noticed I haven’t been all that productive for a while. Aside from my contribution to Appalling Stories 4, I haven’t had anything published for years. Seems like all the bloggers at Virtual Pulp have stopped blogging, too. There are several reviews we’ve been meaning to write and post for months, and just haven’t been able to find the time.

I can only speak for myself. I’ve been going through a process of change in my professional life that has contributed to my decreased production. I’ve got a job that I really like now, probably my best civilian job ever, but I’m still running like crazy to keep up with it and might still be for a while. I’ve got creative irons in the fire, but can’t make predictions about when they’ll be done. And one of those projects, sucking up a good portion of my life outside work, is an audio version of False Flag.

The audio versions of Tomato Can Comeback, Hell & Gone and Tier Zero were all produced via royalty share using Amazon Audible’s ACX partner. For a few reasons, I plan to go a different route with the third book in the series. A fellow writer suggested I record it myself. I don’t have a great voice, but that voice comes at exactly the right price: free. So I hired myself.

The recording phase of the project was bad enough. I guess most people hate the sound of their own voice played back on a recording. I was no exception, but have come to be able to live with the embarrassment. What is worse, though, is the editing.

I like watching rants by Razorfist on topics that interest me. He’s pretty funny, but what impresses me the most is his ability to rapid-fire monologues for minutes on end without getting tongue-tied. I trip over my words constantly, mispronouncing things I know damn well how to pronounce; adding extra syllables for some unknown reason; and stopping because I thought I read something wrong but actually hadn’t. So there’s a lot of editing just to get rid of that. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

While recording, one of my dogs will invariably walk into my “studio,” loudly flop on the floor, start licking himself, and/or bang his tail or leg against the desk. Cut! Quiet on the set! Take Two… The microphone I’m using now usually doesn’t pick up the loud traffic going by on the road, but a dog’s ears sure do, and Rover wants the world to know about it. Cut! Take Three… Sometimes my voice just stops while my mouth keeps moving. Maybe that’s from not enough water. Take Four… I’m hydrated now. I could go for 72 hours without any gastro-intestinal anomalies whatsoever, but try to record something, and I have to belch every few sentences. Take Five… Some days my sinuses act up and I’m really nasal. It’s okay! Keep rolling! Just keep rolling… I do my best at setting up the mike and the shield, but still wind up popping my “P”s most of the time. Being especially talented, I can also pop “B”s and some other letters that just make no sense. Take Six… Speaking of pops, my lips and tongue are prolific at producing pops, clicks, clucks, and all kinds of annoying sounds, sometimes in the middle of a word.

You get the idea. All of that makes editing a chapter take about 3X longer than recording it did. And it’s tedious work. I’m oblivious to some mistakes until I’m in the middle of editing, so I didn’t repeat the line during a recording session. I’ll have to go back and re-record when the wife and kids are gone again, to reduce the ambient noise levels in the house.

So currently, I am less than halfway to having False Flag ready for publishing.

Why am I bothering to make an audiobook? Well, the publishing gurus out there will tell you it’s a promising new market for indy authors. I guess I’ll see. But I got into this corner of the publishing biz because I personally found audiobooks to be a godsend. I haven’t had time to sit down and read recreationally for a long time, but my previous jobs usually involved a lot of travelling. Audiobooks made it possible to read by proxy.

I bought and listened to quite a few Audible books. But for a couple different reasons, I cancelled my subscription. Kobo’s got a cool app that will let you read ebooks AND listen to audiobooks on your phone…but it looks like their selection is even more pozzed than Audible’s.

Which brings me to Castalia House. They’ve built their own platform, and have audio books for sale. While I don’t agree with all their authors or their founder on several issues, I was stoked about the idea of using my “voting dollars” on products from a company that is not full-commie WOKE.

So I bought The Law Dog Files to listen to on an eight hour trip. Got through about half of it and my wife called me. After hanging up, the player went back to the very beginning of the audio file (the whole book is one huge honkin’ track). I could not fast forward. No matter what I did, it started me at the very beginning so I’d have to listen to the same several hours all over again before moving on. Same thing if I try to rewind (move the slider on the progress bar) and listen to a word or phrase again (I have pretty bad hearing loss and parts of human speech fall right into the frequencies I have trouble picking up). Nope, can’t do that. No matter where I put the slider on the progress bar, it ignores my input and resets all the way back to the beginning so I’ll listen to the same six hours of recording first.

I tried a couple different audio players and had the same exact problem.

Now, it seems logical that these players have sliders on their progress bars for the very reason that a listener will want to navigate to different parts of the recording. It does not seem logical that every single one of them has a progress bar/slider that doesn’t work and that 1. I’m the only listener to ever have noticed, or 2. these tools don’t work for anybody, but listeners continue using these apps anyway.  Therefore, it is entirely possible that there is something wrong with the file I bought.

I never had this problem with Audible Books. And if I had, at least their books are broken up into chapter-length files, so at worst I would have to listen to a whole chapter again. But I never had any trouble going back to the part I didn’t catch.

I guess I could sideload the file onto my computer and listen to it with a desktop version of Windows Media Player…but that defeats the purpose. I got the book to listen to while traveling. If I had the time to sit around the house or my job listening to a multi-hour recording, I’d just read the print or e-book version.

Since I ran into the same problem with different players on my phone, I contacted Castalia House and explained the issue, asking for advice. Maybe they knew of a player that wouldn’t force me all the way back to the beginning. Maybe they knew of a setting in a player I could tweak. Maybe the file they sold me was jacked up somehow.

Never got a reply.

Time passed. Still no reply, so I contacted them and explained the situation again.

No reply.

Was their “Contact Us” form malfunctioning? (I’ve had problems with some versions of those forms on this blog before.) But the trip was over, life went on, and I forgot about it.

The other day I was reading the comment section of a post on Castalia’s owner’s blog. While writing a comment, something jogged my memory about Law Dog.

Here’s what I tacked onto the end of my comment:

“…I bought the audio version of the Law Dog Files and have been having trouble with it. There might be an easy solution, but I’ve sent a couple requests for help or advice through Castalia’s help/contact us form, and never got a reply back.”

Here is the response to what I said:

“We don’t provide tech support for how to use basic file formats. We don’t have the time or the manpower to educate everyone on these things.

I’m not trying to sound sarcastic here, but would you contact Sony to ask them how to use the mp3 file that you bought from them?”

Translation:

“We don’t want or need your business. Don’t ever buy audiobooks from us again.”

Check. Anyway, below are the links to the Audible books I have out. The  exclusivity contract with Audible should be ending in a year or two. I don’t remember everything from the agreement and their policy changes since then. I’ll have to look up the info again and see if the existing recordings can then be released to the broad market, or if I’ll have to re-record those. Either way, False Flag should be available by then.

Virginia: Heads They Win; Tails We Lose

I’d love to be proven wrong this time somehow, but Virginians and all other Americans need to be ready for a major false flag and media blitzkrieg. Politicians in Virginia and DC have a message for the American people: “We are going to infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms. What are you gonna do about it?”

If Americans don’t show up to the scheduled protest in Virginia, then our domestic enemies win by default…as usual. Just as in every battle for the soul of our culture, evil wins without firing a shot when people on our side don’t even put up a fight.

Signs indicate that people on our side might not surrender as easily this time. But the globohomo Swamp no doubt has a number of contingencies to turn this into an excuse for more orchestrated infringements. Watch this video before it’s purged by CommieTube:

Here’s some important points to keep in mind, for any patriot planning to attend the event:

  • The Swamp is going to herd the Americans into a fenced area where they will be trapped.
  • Any patriots who park at the nearby, designated parking garages, will possibly be trapped in the area.
  • Antifa, disguised as patriots, intend to infiltrate the protest and create incidents that the Swamp Police can exploit. No matter who does what, patriots will be the villains in the official Narrative.
  • The Swamp has the ability not only to hack your smartphones, but jam any attempt  by you to video record what actually happens. So not only can they prevent you from posting any footage that challenges their Narrative, they can prevent you from recording it in the first place. In other words, what ever lie they choose to tell the population, you will have no opportunity to prove it is a lie. There is a reason they’ve been securing a monopoly on the flow of information.
  • There will probably be drones flying over the area with facial recognition software. So even if you’re smart and only bring a burner phone; even if by some miracle no pre-manufactured “hate crime” doesn’t take place…they will have a list of every American who attends. This will be recon-by-fire. They can arrest potential “domestic terrorists” in the dead of night, later on, at their convenience with no-knock warrants and terminate the resistance piecemeal.
  • In addition to the covert Antifa infiltrators, there will be the typical federal informants and other agents provacateur on hand, not to mention the usual lineup of tribalist alt-retards screaming racial slurs to make sure sheep watching their idiot box will believe that this is all about “white supremacy.”

I don’t know exactly what will happen, but I’m afraid it will be ugly. I’d feel a lot better if some significant swamp-draining could have been accomplished by this point, but that isn’t the case. Trump is still surrounded by avowed enemies of your freedom, who hate him for interfering with their plan. Neither Sessions, Horowitz, or Barr have proven to me that the Swamp faces any serious challenges. I have no worldly advice to offer, because technologically (and in every other worldly aspect) the enemy holds every possible advantage. The only worthwhile advice I can offer is to trust in, and pray to, the God who is more powerful than everybody involved.

Civil War II: What Side Will You Be On?

What will the sides even look like? If you haven’t thought about it much (after careful observation), you’re likely to assume it will be “liberals against conservatives;” “Democrats against Republicans;” “left against right;” or “traitors against patriots.”

If you made one of those assumptions, chances are you’re half-correct.  Democrats, leftists, and traitors (but I repeat myself) will be involved at the highest levels in the coming war. What about folks like me (patriots/right-wingers)? Will we be on the other side, fighting against the globalists (whether you call them Communists, Democrats, or “liberals”)?

Frankly, that depends on the timetable. The boomers on the right are dying off, and probably not much help in a fight anymore, anyway. Generation X is over-the-hill, and won’t be very adept at moving, shooting, and communicating , even if CW2 touches off in the next few years. It’s looking like the bulk of the combatants on both sides will be Millennials and younger…and that means the paradigm is going to be different from how we’ve been looking at it.

Again: Marxism will be the major ideological impetus behind this struggle. The poster children for this new wave of Communists are the likes of Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. This 5th column has been in the USA for over a century and their goal hasn’t changed; it’s just that the mask has now slipped so far that even some of the normalcy-biased “It Can’t Happen Here” crowd is starting to recognize them for what they are. Right now the Marxists control pretty much everything except the White House. The military is no exception–the Communist long march through the institutions has captured the officer corps and poisoned the minds of the enlisted as well.

Who will the opposition be? The bulk of them will not be patriots, true right-wingers, and certainly not constitutionalists.

Oh, some of us will be be there, but we’ll be outnumbered, even on our own “side” (and well past our fighting prime, too). The opposition to the overt Marxists, again, will be millennials and younger. For lack of a catchy name for this group (which is not also deceptive, like “alt-right”), I will call them the Cult of Western Civilization, or CWC for short.

Brief history quiz:

Q: What is the primary difference between Nazis and Communists?

A: Nazis are nationalist; Communists are globalist. Also, they have different labels for their scapegoats: “Jews” and “capitalists,” respectively.

Both are socialist and have negligible differences beyond the above  despite nearly a century of brainwashing to convince you that Nazis are “right wing.”

In much the same way, there are few substantial differences between the CWC and the rabid Marxists they are temporarily opposed to. They both have contempt for our constitutional republic and for the Bill of Rights. (For instance: Both have paid lip service to freedom of speech when it suits them. After the left secured control over all the mediums of information, freedom of speech became a thorn in their side they are actively working to crush. Likewise, even while the CWC spews platitudes about speaking freely, behind the scenes they regard free speech–and, increasingly, all freedom–as dangerous. They would also turn against it if they were to prevail in this struggle.)

Both sides are promoting identity politics uber alles. The difference in the demographics they identify with is what makes their few differences seem irreconcilable.

 

The CWC is predicting a civil war split along racial lines, and they could be right. Jesus did prophesy that ethnos would rise against ethnos (ethnos was translated “nation” in the English), and it appears that we are just one major crisis away from seeing violent fulfillment in the USA.

As polarized as the overt left and the CWC are along racial lines, they are nearly in lockstep when it comes to moral issues like sodomy. The fact that both sides embrace it is a clue what spiritual force drives them both.

That they so proudly place a self-proclaimed dangerous faggot on a pedestal pretty much speaks for itself.

For different stated reasons, both sides loathe the Judas Goats commonly referred to as “conservatives.” Most patriots are still hoodwinked by the collection of cowards, turncoats and sleeper agents who speak for this ever-retreating “movement” that has never conserved anything of worth, though the NeoCons, RINOs, and Deep State useful idiots under various disguises (libertarians, moderates, centrists, etc.) are finally being exposed (too little, too late).

There are some voices in the CWC who claim to be Christian, and at first glance their doctrine seems more sound than the Churchians on the left. But the god they serve is usually Racial Purity. The typical WC cultist feels a spiritual imperative to hate Jews and blame Jews for every single problem that faces us in our world. It would be comical if it weren’t so sad how predictably one of these CWC bots will show up on a comment thread to unveil a Jewish conspiracy behind anything from the impeachment  circus to suspicious officiating at a ballgame.

I’ve still never heard or read a coherent argument from any of them explaining how someone ostensibly following the Lion of Judah/King of the Jews (with an extensively documented Jewish lineage) can be consumed by such irrational hatred for “da Jooz.” The rare WC cultist who is honest enough to acknowledge that Jesus was a Jew will simply argue that “Jew” doesn’t really mean “Jew,” with word games and cognitive dissonance that would make Louis Farrakhan proud.

The overt left is also consumed with an irrational hatred for the offspring of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, though the shrieking members of “the Squad” have no doubt revealed this fact too soon for their globalist masters who hope to squeeze some more mileage out of their Race Card. All that said, the overt left hates Christianity more than any other belief or faith. The leftards who pretend to be Christian spend less time studying the Bible than they do attacking what (they’ve heard that) it says.

Both sides want to be ruled by a charismatic dictator. The overt left wants Big Brother/Big Sister to be Diverse and sexually deviant. The CWC wants their “god-emperor” to be Caucasian and “alpha.”

For now.

It’s tempting to decide that you simply won’t take a side, if those are the choices. But you may not have a choice. However, assuming you can sit on the fence unscathed until one side prevails…and assuming the “lesser evil” of the CWC is victorious…what does that mean for you?

Once they’ve destroyed the representative government that they abhor, who is going to look after your interests? You can’t, because you won’t be able to speak freely or publish anything their authoritarian regime disapproves of.  You won’t be able to worship God according to your convictions either, unless your convictions line up with the dogma of their state-controlled religion.

Don’t assume you’ll have the ability to overthrow the new boss, either. Like all the Bill of Rights, once the right to keep and bear arms has served its purpose for the CWC and their overt left sparring partners (Antifa is gunning up), it will be scrapped for “law and order” and “the greater good,” too. Freedom from unwarranted searches and seizures? Gone. Right to a jury trial? Gone. Innocent until proven guilty? Not any more. And your “based” brethren will celebrate the death of freedom because, much like the Germans of the 1930s, they just can’t imagine what could possibly go wrong by surrendering all to a strong central authority.

Auto Parts Store Employees and More Signs of the Impending Idiocracy

I remember when I used to be able to walk into Car Quest (or better yet: Supershops) and approach the dude behind the counter.
Me: I need a fuel pump for a small-block Mopar.
Car Guy: Stock or high-performance?
Me: Hi-po, please. Whatcha’ got?
Car Guy: Gimme a sec–I’ll grab what we have in stock and let you look at ’em and read the specs. Anything else while I’m in the back?
Me: Yeah–timing gear and chain.
Car Guy: You want a double-roller?
Me: Yeah, might as well.
Car Guy: Be right back.
Fast forward to today. I walk up to the parts counter…
Millennial Retail Zombie: Hi. How can I help you?
Me: I need a fuel pump for a small-block Mopar.
Millennial Retail Zombie: (Deer caught in the headlights expression.) Huh? Um, what kind of vehicle?
Me: Mopar. You know–Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth…even DeSoto back in the old days.
Millennial Retail Zombie: So it’s a Chrysler?
Me: Any of the above. The same fuel pump fits the 273, the 318, the 340 and the 360, regardless of the car or truck model.
Millennial Retail Zombie: Um, I need to know the vehicle, sir.
Me: Okay. ’71 Duster.
Millennial Retail Zombie: (Tapping at the keyboard.) A what? What make is that?
Me: Plymouth.
Millennial Retail Zombie: We don’t have any such vehicle in our database.
Me: (sighing) Fine. Let’s say it’s a 1990 Dodge Dakota.
Millennial Retail Zombie: (Tapping keyboard.) What engine?
Me: 360.
Millennial Retail Zombie: That engine’s not listed.
Me: Okay. A 318. It’s the five-point-whatever liter. A V-8.
Millennial Retail Zombie: Is it two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive?
Me: It makes no difference.
Millennial Retail Zombie: I have to choose one or the other.
Me: (Another sigh.) Four-wheel drive.
Millennial Retail Zombie: Is it an extended cab?
Me: (Rolling eyes.) Yes. Fine. It’s an extended cab.
Millennial Retail Zombie: Manual or automatic transmission?
Me: Dude, it doesn’t friggin’ matter!
Millennial Retail Zombie: (Gives me that I-may-have-to-call-the-manager look.) Um…
Me: Standard! It’s a friggin’ standard!
Millennial Retail Zombie: What?
Me: Standard transmission! Manual! “Stick shift” if you prefer. Row-your-own. You have to shift it yourself.
Millennial Retail Zombie: Eww! Why would anyone want to do that?
Me: Do you have the pump?
Millennial Retail Zombie: Just a few more questions. Does it have the cassette or CD player; manual or power windows, and where is the ash tray located?
Me: I don’t care. Make something up.
Millennial Retail Zombie: (Tapping keyboard.) Um, we don’t currently have it in stock here or our warehouse, but we’re expecting the next shipment from China to come in any day now.
