This excerpt from KW is accurate in ways he does not know and cannot have intended.

It’s now clear wut happened:

1. Democrats filed 100s of lawsuits to allow ballot harvesting/mail-ins.

2. Democratic political machines held/counted them, making sure not to throw out all the disqualifiables.

3. Dem machines obstructed any potentially unfriendly observers.

"Caesarism" has been bandied about a great deal these last five years, but leave it to Yarvin to work out, step by step, what actual Caesarism in 2020 America would entail and require.

*Of course* we're not there—yet.

The difference with the Hub City Riot Ninja / Rich White Kids Antifa Riots (2020) is that the looters were left-wing agitators. Today's Marxist should not lament the destruction of black and immigrant communities in these riots—they're just helping the revolution!

[Diodotus @ContraCleon]

The Marxist evaluation of an event like the Tulsa massacre (1921) must be two-faced:

1: public indignation—a racist attack on a black community

2: concealed glee—heightening the contradictions by destroying bourgeois property, swelling the ranks of the revolutionary proletariat

To paraphrase Decius:

The indefinite lockdown is Russian Roulette with a semi-auto. By reopening, at least you can spin the cylinder and take your chances.

I have a sneaking suspicion that these “how to wage political war upon relatives during Thanksgiving” are almost entirely written BY and FOR people who “celebrate” “Friendsgiving” anyway

One would think, the first Thanksgiving after the @marwilliamson campaign, that the Racist Uncle trope would be complemented by a Spiritual Aunt trope.

If you’re having Gaul problems I feel bad for you Rome

Purely hypothetical: what if you're a white American whose ancestors funded John Brown's anti-slaveocracy terrorism? Or Sherman's anti-slaveocracy warfare? Do you get a tax credit if you can prove that your ancestors helped burn down Atlanta? https://t.co/1PhxbJvuvX

But—I should hope this is needless to say—not all societies, not all orthodoxies are equal.

Let me guess. #4 is written by a signatory of #2, while #3 is written by a woman who didn't sign the letter.
