Great Men do not come out of the ether, the are created by calamitous times, which they navigate deftly until the time is right to strike and appropriate them for their own ends. These times seem to be upon us, but only in their embryonic form
The GOP is dead, it’s been totally crushed by Trump, and the DNC has completely squandered its opportunity to harness the segment of the population opposed to him. Their clumsy and half-baked scheme have blown up in their faces
The next generation of left and right both want the edifice built by the establishment to either crumble or be brought to heel by a strong, uncompromising regime. The Dems had a chance to ride this wave but they were TERRIFIED of the populace and of losing their power
The right, on the other hand, was never as opposed to the left as they pretended, now that they see what the people really want, and how it does not please their paymasters, have defected to the left, exposing themselves as the cynical sycophants of Capital they always were
Now we have an unruly youth who want either to run rampant destroying everything in their path (the left), or to completely eschew lIbErAl VaLuEs and the constitootion to instill order and reclaim that which they were promised by the cowards who continue to bleat petty lies
Unfortunate this leaves us in a predicament that I don’t believe we can get out of without a war. You see we have men in this country, Bezos and Gates and many others (the 4-500 BAP speaks of) who are used to things going their way. Our entire system serves the sole purpose...
Of directing capital into their coffers. That system is on the brink of collapsing. I’m not convinced trump is willing to go all the way and totally oppose these people and bring them down completely, but that is clearly what the people want
At this point it’s clear the government is the only thing protecting these people from the masses. However if democracy, or even its pretense, is abandoned in this country, there will be no reason to protect or enrich these men
And this is how the two sides in a civil war will be established: those who want the presidency for the oligarchs (this will be “pro democracy”) and those who want it for the exaltation of One Man and, thereby, The People
Trump is *not* rabidly opposed by the establishment for his rAcIsM and SeXiSm, they are satanic child slave rapists! It is his evocation of banning immigration and retaining or repatriating industry in/to America that makes them froth at the mouth!
it is my belief Trump cares more about the prestige of the presidency, and not the power, otherwise I feel he would’ve done more on these fronts, but still he is a net positive for us and a total threat to them. For he proves that the heart of America is against the oligarchs
The countries backbone are the trump supporters, the electricians and plumber and construction workers, police and soldiers. The Middle class children chimping out right now are completely irrelevant, they could disappear tomorrow and nothing would change
They are also cowards and as such, will not be the opposition in a civil war. Maybe in the very beginning, the leftists with balls who are itching for a fight (there are a few) will be involved in some battles, but they will be easily overrun or superseded when the army steps in
And this I believe is how it will break down: the left will either provoke outright violence against them, or they will inspire the election of people farther to the right than trump could ever be. This, of course, will provoke the establishment worse
Who will then sick the army on either the people attacking the Left or they will arrest or use the military to attaq some populist figure on bogus charges. Maybe this will happen to Trump if he is re elected.
This would probably revolve into a scenario in which Tripp’s would refuse to fire on American citizens in enough numbers to mount an opposition (this is what happened in Syria), but there would be some who stay “loyal” to the govt based mostly on pay and fear of court martial
It is a scenario like this, depending on how it goes, in which we shall see actors like Bezos hire private military contractors to fight to keep some farce of democracy and it is in this phase that such a man would attempt to gain power. This is nightmare scenario
This is the scenario we need to be ready for. Everything leading up is only intro, it is in a moment like this that we will need to act, because it is in this sort of chaos that a man of power can nakedly strive for control in order to “restore order.”
the fortunes these men amass are unprecedented in this history of the human race. These men, the 4-500, have enough money to pay troops to fight a protracted war for domination for as long as it takes. There is only one thing that can oppose them: a Caesar.
Julius Caesar himself had amassed a fortune by the time he crossed the rubicon, but that is not what set him apart from his rivals. Not at all. It was the *loyalty* of his men. So fucking loyal, in fact, they sided with his heir against one of their own former commanders
I do not really like trump, because I think his main tactic is to say what he knows people want to hear. I don’t believe he has it in him to go far enough. But he is important as a place holder. He opened the door for a true man of power to step in, but these men...
Do not emerge in a time like ours, we need more time. But trump has scared the shit out of the establishment, and if they beat him in Nov, I fear our only chance at truly taking our country back will be lost. They will have learned their lesson. Oh
