I've been cranking all day on this.
Some things are so important that they need to be explored in depth, and in real time.
The shocking revelations from Data Republican regarding the plot to overthrow our Constitution is such a thing and now is such a time.
We are facing a color revolution. This article explains how color revolutions have worked overseas in the past at the hands of the CIA and USAID, and how those now ex-USAID employees, now ensconced in well-funded NGOs, are currently using the same tactics against our own nation.
It's a long article, almost 2,500 words.
If you care about this, please read. It's a very complex set of concepts, and takes more than a few words to explain adequately.
Thanks.
It's often claimed "the US isn't an economic zone!"
Today, on the eve of its 250th year of Independence, it is now clear: YES—it is.
It's not a country. It once was. It was a country defined by a specific nation. An America for Americans. But this was merely an artifact of separation from a country defined by native blood and territory; the English colonists in the New World, separating from Britain.
And over the decades and centuries that followed, increasing expansion and change of who is an American.
The United States of America are the Liberal Enlightenment in total triumph.
And so too it has exported its view of the world, tirelessly working to root out and destroy, then properly historically categorize any traditional arrangements of life for any particular people that are not expansively egalitarian, as unacceptable despotisms.
And at every step, greater and greater boundaries of citizenship and political franchise - culminating in the USA fully dismantling the Old World in two World Wars and triumph over an alternative organization of industrial society in the Cold War.
And today, long de facto now de jure, it is not a country, not defined by any particular people.
These United States of America are an economic zone; an enormous shopping mall, an airport hotel, a conference ballroom, a coworking space (open office plan of course). A methadone clinic, a broth-sorry, a community oriented sex worker housing development, a place for everyone to be as queer as they want.
You can believe anything and be anything and say anything and worship anything - unless of course you express a little too much partiality for the nation that once was, and the country that once was, and their beliefs as they once held them dear. That's evil and soon, it will be illegal.
God bless America.
In France there is a new activity that the Left is getting their knickers in a twist about.
Le Canon Français is running massive banquets. For about £70 you can have great food and drinks and spend time singing patriotic songs.
The “Far Left” is furious.
LFI says it has evidence of racist chanting, and of immigrant staff being insulted. With pork regularly on the menu, they say the feasts are purposely designed to exclude Muslims and vegetarians.
Meanwhile, everyday people who love France, love food and beer are having the time of their lives.
Wow, what an amazing plot twist, whatever Elon got going on this app will not change the fact that Europeans started slavery, profited from it, monitored it, supervised it, wall street once exchanged traded slaves on the stock market, they ran it for 400 years, and only stopped when they discovered steam engine, and their little Anglo-American war with the US back then.
Born and raised in California, but left a few years ago because I couldn't stand living with people who voted for and accepted all of this garbage. The idea that this is only now being noticed is stupid.
The majority of voters in California ruined my home so much that I was better served leaving than trying to help fix it, as much as any single individual could.
Where were all of you when this started? I lost friends and coworkers when trying to have real conversations about all the bonds and bullshit being passed by the softheads who (either through stupidity or complicity) pushed and voted for this shit knowing full well it was an emotional posturing devoid of any real substance or impact. I lost job opportunities in the tech world because of my views, and we all know of many more who had the same thing happen to them.
I wanted to stay and be a vote towards common sense and responsibility, but I was outnumbered. It made more sense to let California eat itself alive. And I hate the idea of taxing everyone into oblivion, but at this point everyone there deserves it.
@nikitabier the lack of being able to only view my “Following” feed by recency is killing me. I’ve lost track of everything and I can’t following things in real-time anymore. Not sure what bucket I’m in but would love to be out of it. I understand the business metrics may say otherwise, but would love to be able to choose Recency vs. Popular.
I am of this opinion as well. As a native of southern Californian who transplanted to the bay, all these fools complaining now campaigned for the wolves who are currently biting their faces. I remember having arguments when the bullet train bond passed, with lefty friends arguing that it would for sure only cost $10bb with straight faces. They can stew in it for all I care. And all the “conservatives” who agreed with me just say at the table silently and didn’t do shit.
My only concern is that they’ll move to where I live and ruin this state as well.
I hope Trump federalizes the MN national guard to have manpower flooding the streets to block rioters and let ICE carry out deportations.
We have millions of illegal aliens and fraudulent refugees and cannot tolerate Disney adults living out their “Andor” resistance fantasy.
"The implications for Russian defense exports are catastrophic. Every S-300 and S-400 customer, including China, India, Turkey, Iran, Algeria, and Egypt, now confronts empirical evidence that Russian systems cannot defeat American fifth-generation capabilities in operational conditions. Marketing claims about theoretical performance against stealth aircraft have been tested in combat."
"The United States has now demonstrated, in operational conditions against a real adversary, that it can remotely manipulate critical infrastructure of a target nation to facilitate kinetic effects."
