Title: To the Barricades! By Fred Reed (AKA Fred on Everything)
Post by: JohnyMac on September 03, 2017, 02:00:36 PM
I just read this article by Fred Reed and I just had to share it as it does a better job of explaining what is happening in the USofA today than I have been able to express.

I will leave you with three paragraphs from the article and if you would like to read more - Go at it.
Quote

..."Half the country, led by New York, wants to control, and does control, everything of importance to the other half. Everything is decided remotely: what your children learn in school, what you can’t say to them because they might tell their teachers; who you have to hire, with whom you have to associate, what religious practices are permitted, whether you can have a Christmas tree in the town square or sing carols on the public streets, whether you can defend yourself and your family. New York versus the Deplorables. The city holds the high cards...."

..."Bitter conflicts force the taking of sides, often with people one does not like. For example, I think Trump is a horse’s ass, dangerous, naive, uninformed, and a thoroughgoing damned fool. I detest the KKK (which barely exists, but never mind) and disagree with the Alt-Right on many things. Yet when I look at the other side, the armed bands, the censorship, thought control, indoctrination, the re-writing of history, their media arm, the identity politics, the push for control, control, control—I think,“I’ll take Trump—gack–and certainly the Deplorables.” And of course if violence comes, it’s one or the other. You can’t reason with a mob armed with lengths of rebar..."

..."Clearly the people at the top, in the editorial suites in Manhattan, at Goldman Sachs, at Lockheed-Martin, know what they are doing. They want Trump out so they can continue looting. From their point of view,the placard-carriers and ball-bat wielders are, merely useful idiots. It is an odd and amusing alliance. The useful idiots, Leftists all, apparently do not know that they are carrying water for the arms industry and international finance."

    I agree with the New York City versus the Deplorables, but L.A., San Francisco, Seattle, Denver etc., are also part of the problem.  Most urban areas are nests of liberals, SJWs, and socialists.  Amazingly, we have a President that originated from NYC, which means that he is intimately familiar with the urban mindset.  The easiest way to rectify the problem would be to lay siege to the cities and let them starve a bit.  A healthy does of hunger has a way of changing one's thought processes, at least on a temporary basis.  The Deplorables and Middle America are getting tired of having urban values being shoved down their throats.

:thumbsUp:  if you let it go longer than 96 hours, my guess is that you would have to rebuild rather than just open the roads  and turn on the power afterwards.

Go a full week to 10 days.  Those of similar thoughts to us will likely have minimal significant problem.  Those who do not have a similar mindset as we will become very well educated and understanding of alternatives to the prior and other political situation.  As well as enlightened to the good and bad sides of complete reliance on govt to solve everything.
