Leftists
have established by precedent the premise that "mostly peaceful"
rioting, arson, assault, and rampant property destruction are not only
acceptable, but necessary in order to purge our nation of imagined
original sin.
George
Floyd was merely a stroke of luck for the left; if it were not for his
murder, they would have needed to conjure up another excuse for the
studied and deliberate anarchy we are experiencing today.
Having
failed at winning the election and then again with their efforts to
depose President Trump through investigation and impeachment, Democrats
have concluded that revolution is necessary, and one cannot prosecute a
revolution without practice.
What
we are seeing today is Antifa, the paramilitary arm of the Democratic
Party, and BLM, the propaganda arm (in conjunction with mainstream
media) of the party, practicing for the "big show." They understand
that their coup failed because their nefarious plot against President
Trump was strangled in its crib by a constitution that works when
followed. And they cannot allow that again.
Revolution is the way...
This
has been coming for some time, certainly before Trump ever descended
that escalator to announce his candidacy. It is what "cancel culture"
is about: stealing agency from anyone who does not toe the line.
The
movement to make people apologize to black people for their privilege
and for the slavery and bigotry that no country has done more to address
and eliminate is a means to create an acceptance culture among people
who otherwise might object to the coming revolution.
Forbidding
particular statues, wrong words, cultural appropriation, and borrowed
slang, are all about establishing boundaries that shall not be crossed
to create limits to potential dissent from their incipient rebellion.
People
think that the Obama administration's debasing of the constitutional
protections afforded to the accused with respect to sexual assault
accusations in the nation's colleges was about pursuing justice for the
women who should "always be believed."
It
was not. It was a means of getting people to understand that going
forward, the left will not allow the presumption of innocence. And if
they can cancel that, they can cancel anything.
It was also a starting point.
It
was initially Confederate statues that were overturned, but now it is
any statue, because they want us to know that they are in control and we
should, as we are doing now, stand down when they try to overthrow the
government in November.
It
is all a test to see if America will accept the negation of the values
inherent in our constitution. With the slogan "black lives matter,"
they mean to force us to accept that the aphorism "all men are created
equal" is outdated, because black lives are more equal and matter more
than any others.
Yet
it is not that they care one whit for black lives who perish in
unimaginable numbers at the hands of other black lives; what they want
is to establish a regime where the people of the United States accept
that what they say matters.
Having
established the policy, it is a small step to abrogating all of
anyone's rights at any time. All that will be needed to destroy one's
constitutional protections is for the left's allies in media to sell it
to an uninformed populace as righteous and justified.
After all, who is not anti-rape, anti-racism, and pro-fairness?
The
canceling, forced apologies, the looting, and the arson are all part of
getting America ready to accept the rebellion the Democrats are
planning for post-election.
And the destruction will not be "rebellion" or "revolution"; it will be peaceful protest.
The
left acts under the premise that only leftists are right and
just. This false assumption gives them both license and good reason to
commit whatever despicable deed they must to eradicate opposing
ideas. And if we have seen anything these last weeks, it is that
Democrats have no aversion to using violence to get what they want,
because when you believe that you are riding "the arc of history,"
breaking a few bones and burning down a city bend toward justice — as
Barry would say.
The
riots, the arson, the defund police movement, assaults of public
figures, the canceling of people who drift astray of the left's
orthodoxy — all are designed to inure people to the violence that will
befall the nation immediately before and after 11/03/20.
We
can expect the left to show little mercy, for cancel-culture leftists
lack grace when the smell of blood inflames their nostrils. After all,
they are mere victims striking out against oppressors, which we have
allowed ourselves to be categorized as by our silence.
Knocked
off their feet with the destruction of Chairman Hillary Mao in 2016,
they reached into the mire within which they were ensconced to grab
whatever excrement they could to throw at the president, and it did not
work.
Their
"Plan B" is to overthrow the system, and the widespread anarchy and
destruction we have seen in recent days is merely prologue as preview.
Should
Trump win, there will be widespread calls for negating the election
because...this, that, or the other thing was used by the president to
steal the election. That will be the justification for them to unleash
the Kraken*.
If
Biden wins, they will riot to consolidate their gains and push their
agenda. This will include gun confiscation and destruction of the
1st Amendment — just to start.
Yes,
we all know what will happen in November. We have been witness to the
arrogant display of slow-motion revolution for weeks now.
The more frightening question is, how can it be prevented.
*The kraken
is a legendary cephalopod-like sea monster of gigantic size in
Scandinavian folklore. According to the Norse sagas, the kraken dwells
off the coasts of Norway and Greenland and terrorizes nearby sailors.
