Quote:Apparently, you know nothing about John Boehner, Republican and retired Speaker of the House, who said that Republicans are acting crazy, not the Democrats. Boehner is familiar with what Democrats and Republicans are doing because it is his job at www.squirepattonboggs.com/en

The Conservative Movement Is Rejecting America
A recent essay in a prominent right-wing outlet gives an unusually clear window into the modern right’s anti-democratic worldview. The American Mind — a publication of the Claremont Institute, an influential conservative think tank based in California — published an incendiary essay arguing that the country has already been destroyed by internal enemies.

ervative-and-you-shouldnt-be-either/
“Most people living in the United States today — certainly more than half — are not Americans in any meaningful sense of the term,” Glenn Ellmers, the essay’s author, writes. “They do not believe in, live by, or even like the principles, traditions, and ideals that until recently defined America as a nation and as a people. It is not obvious what we should call these citizen-aliens, these non-American Americans; but they are something else.”
These seditious citizens are opposed, according to Ellmers, by “the 75 million people who voted in the last election against the senile figurehead of a party that stands for mob violence, ruthless censorship, and racial grievances, not to mention bureaucratic despotism.” (74,222,958 voted for Trump. 81,283,098 for Biden.)
If Trump voters and conservatives do not band together and fight “a sort of counter-revolution,” then “the victory of progressive tyranny will be assured. See you in the gulag.”
What exactly this counter-revolution entails is unclear, but Ellmers has some tips. “Learn some useful skills, stay healthy, and get strong,” he writes. “One of my favorite weightlifting coaches likes to say, ‘Strong people are harder to kill, and more useful generally.’”
Ellmers’s essay has been widely discussed in American media and intellectual circles, due to its bracing honesty about the modern right’s worldview and the prominence of the outlet that published it. Claremont is an influential institution of the right; one of its publications, the Claremont Review of Books, published the notorious “Flight 93” essay arguing that the 2016 election was a choice between Trump and national extinction. (“2016 is the Flight 93 election: charge the cockpit or you die,” that essay declared in its opening line.)
Minutes before the January 6 assault on Capitol Hill, former President Donald Trump told his assembled supporters that “if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.” In a 2019 speech, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) warned that “we have come again to one of the great turning points in our national history, when the fate of our republican government is at issue.” In a 2020 Facebook post, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy declared that “Democrats want to defund, destroy, and dismantle our country.”
Ellmers’s essay should be taken seriously because it makes the anti-democratic subtext of conservative discourse into clearly legible text. And it is a clear articulation of what the movement has been telling us through its actions, like Georgia’s new voting law: It sees democracy not as a principle to respect, but as a barrier to be overcome in pursuit of permanent power.

Quote:No. Have you heard of the Vietnam War? The grandfathers of today's Trump voters said that if the Commies weren't stopped in Vietnam it is death for America. Wasn't true, but nobody who said Commies will kill America got around to correcting their wild & emotional beliefs when it turned out their beliefs were delusional rather than factual. I don't think Trump-voting grandsons will be correcting themselves fifty years from now about their delusional beliefs from 2021. Being wrong and not knowing right is passed from generation to generation, from Commie-hating Nixon-voting grandfather to the Democrat-hating Trump-voting grandson.

Quote:I call you Nazi because everything you say is EXACTLY what Nazis say. It would be a delight if a real, PROVEN Nazi like yourself would kill themselves.

Your life is pointless, impoverished, and futile. It doesn't need to go on, being a drain on everyone and everything you come in contact with. You can end your misery.
