82 years ago nearly all of the men on the first few boats that landed on the beach in Normandy were dead before days end.
Sit here with that for a while.
Look at them.
Really look at them.
Look into their eyes.
Many of them are boys, they are someone’s son, someone’s brother, someone’s sweetheart someone’s father.
They never came home.
And every privilege, every convenience, every freedom and every little thing that you want to bitch about you have because of them and they paid the ultimate price for you to have those freedoms. #dday #FreedomIsNeverFree
I think most people now can see the monstrous consequences of the lie that George Floyd’s death had anything to do with racism.
America was hardest hit but not a single anglo society was spared, including (inexplicably) Britain, where the police aren't even armed. Federal agencies, corporations, universities, sports teams, the military, the music industry all dropped to their knees in ritual self-flagellation. DEI commissars flooded in like Red Guards, armed with six-figure salaries and limitless bureaucratic power.
Every hire, every promotion, every contract, every training session became a loyalty test to the new faith:
Whiteness = original sin
merit = oppression
colorblindness = violence
They made your life hell for the past 5 years. Billions poured into "equity" grifts while competence hemorrhaged. Everything got a little dumber as the social fabric frayed because suddenly the color of your skin mattered more than whether you could do the job.
And don't forget the "Mostly Peaceful" riots that killed dozens, burned police stations down, looted businesses, and torched entire neighborhoods - many of them the very minority neighborhoods they claimed to champion. Statues were toppled and history was rewritten. "Defund the police" became policy in some progressive cities. Together with bail reform and no-cash bail, Soros DAs ensured that crime was not only downplayed but rather, elevated to a respectable lifestyle choice.
If you noticed any of this, YOU were racist.
Criminals walked. Retail theft became an organized sport as shoplifting rings brazenly (and calmly) walked out with stolen merchandise. And the rest of us? We get to shop at CVS like it's a maximum-security exhibit - toothpaste, deodorant, candy, all locked behind locked plexiglass because punishing thieves became "racist."
This was a wholesale cultural revolution that would make Mao blush. New gurus rose up to dictate the new customs. Can't say "All Lives Matter." Don't ask for ID. Don't notice patterns in crime stats. Exams are racist so the SAT was dismantled. Everyone was commanded to kneel, repent, and genuflect at the altar of “Anti-Racism.”
Corporations that once made products now also made propaganda. Schools became grievance factories and abolished advanced-level math classes. Cities that once hummed with ambition were transformed into open-air asylums of needles, tents, and feral disorder.
The legacy of Saint Floyd was a wholesale reprogramming of society, which brings us back to Henry Novak and how he was treated by the police.
The total moral inversion is visible in his death where police hesitated and cuffed him, the VICTIM. They let the victim of a fresh murder bleed out in the street because the new dogma made it unthinkable to confront the obvious: that the perpetrator was not white.
In a New Society where the sacred founding principle is that the WORST moral infraction is to perpetuate racism, it then becomes unfathomable to consider that a non-white person did something bad. Reality itself is routinely denied to preserve this dogma.
A civilization that reaches this point has already surrendered. We now have an entire generation marinated in this poison, taught from childhood to despise the very civilization that handed them unprecedented peace, prosperity, and freedom.
Breaking this programming will not be easy. It is woven into schools, media, corporate policy, and the language we’re allowed to speak. But break it we must.
This only ends only when we choose truth over comfort, excellence over equity, and civilization over ritual self-hatred. We need a counter-cultural revolution.
@HollyCabot Maybe if they got out into the real world they'd learn that most of their tropes relate to the Greatest Generation, their ease of re-entry into society and the economy in the 20 year aftermath to WWII, and how critical that transition was to the survival of the modern world.
@LindaBumpass@HollyCabot@hillbilly_828 I’m a boomer. One of the last - born in late ‘64. But I could also be an Xer, if you buy into the shared experiences concept outlined in the book, the Fourth Turning Is Here by Neil Howe, defining Gen X as starting in ‘61.
Crazy stuff. I don’t see this as a generational thing, but rather the typical envious nature of humans: egged on by the media & ambitious politicians, & amplified on sites like this. The envy crosses all of the arbitrary generational boundaries. I blame the generation creators.
I am an X'er (the coolest generation).. That said, I am shocked at replies I saw today from younger people and the disgust and hatred they have toward older Americans. The class envy and entitlement is bad. The kids are not alright and that's really sad
The two disparate views of Seattle pictured below might as well be of every Democrat city in America. It’s probably safe to say that everything wrong with America emanates from the moment Democrats are in power. Their sweeping corruption is the cause of a catastrophic national deficit. Their hatred of capitalism and the nuclear family is the cause of rampant crime. Their communist hatred of single family neighborhoods is the cause of desolate, dystopian shells of once prosperous urban centers. Their open border policies to gain illegal votes have rotted our once civilized culture to tatters.
The glory that was America is flickering into eternal darkness. The Democrat way of life is an open wound in the gut of this once proud nation - it is a cancer and it is a curse.
We are standing on the edge of an abyss, and the winds are howling from the darkness below.
On January 6th I followed the crowd into the Capitol and shouted. Police stood by the whole time, hanging out with us and sometimes directing us places.
At one point near the House Chambers I was walking downstairs when a trio of some special section, secret service looking men started pointing guns in my direction.
Confused and annoyed, I walked the other way and when I saw a normal police officer asked him why they were doing that.
He informed me a protestor (Ashli Babbit) had been killed, and advised me to leave the building.
I walked towards the exit and after a short rest on the bench I left.
I harmed nobody and damaged no property that day and complied with all police orders.
What I received for that was a pre-dawn raid at my parents house, where my 1 month post-partum wife and I were staying, on Biden's first day in office. His DOJ had signed the order to arrest me 3 hours after his inauguration.
In the subsequent weeks I received death threats online and harassing phone calls, something that would be ongoing for the next few years.
I was banned from Meta and Paypal. My wife and I were both debanked by PNC and banned from Airbnb. My wife was detained at the airport for hours with our newborn daughter.
I was charged with 4 misdemeanors and the 1512 unconstitutional felony. The government offered to drop the misdemeanors if I pled to the felony. The felony was a lie, so I refused and went to trial.
At trial the prosecution for 2 days straight was allowed to show footage to the jury of things that occurred around the Capitol I wasn't present for "for context." When we asked to put forward footage that contradicted the prosecution's "context" we were not allowed. They could show what they wanted, we could not.
Police officers were then put on the stand for the next 2 days who cried about their experiences. I had no idea who they were. They admitted they never saw me or interacted with me.
Nevertheless like every other J6er, I lost, and was sentenced to 4 years and $22k in fines and restitution. Yet even after the Supreme Court overturned the felony, the judge would not let me out until my misdemeanor sentences of a year were maxed out. Because she can't count she actually kept me in longer - to the extent she intervened at the last minute to make the prison release me on a Sunday, something that is against BOP rules. My family sat outside the prison gates the Friday before practically the whole day waiting in vain because of this pettiness.
But the government wasn't satisfied with their pound of flesh: after my release they took me back in for resentencing, to attempt to have me resentenced after the fact to my misdemeanors consecutively, so I'd be taken from my family again and have another 1.5 years behind bars. This time I won, as they had no legal precedent and it skirted on violating double jeopardy since I had served my full prison time. Even still, it cast a cloud over the holidays and cost me another 20k my family couldn't afford.
People ask whether prison was bad, and yeah of course prison sucked. It was a hard and violent place. I was present for a stabbing, and was lucky to avoid two fights and a race war.
But dealing with Biden's DOJ and the DC Judiciary was the real trauma - they would grind down your spirit by weaponizing the legal system and use the endless procedure to bankrupt you. I had nightmares for months after release that I had somehow been hit with new charges.
By the time I was pardoned by President Trump, I had spent literally every single day of Biden's presidency either in prison or under some form of supervision. I had incurred over $300k in legal fees and over $1 million in lost business.
It was a reign of terror, and yet it was a mere foreshadowing of what they had planned for anyone else who opposed them under Kamala. The country should never forget it.
