The left is still using “Rules for Radicals” as an instruction manual:
“Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”
They are using the Right’s own values as a weapon:
- Saying that real Christians would help the poor and the illegal immigrants- using your religion, that they themselves don’t share, as a weapon
- Saying you aren’t a “real” supporter of the 2A if you don’t start shooting ICE agents, even though they haven’t ever cared about the 2A themselves
- Wringing their hands over children being deported, even though they care so little about children themselves that they abort millions of them
They are posting dumb shit like this:
They don’t know how pistols work, but they will use that ignorance as a weapon against you.
I am to the point where I recognize this for what it is: The left has no guiding principles, except this one:
They want to win, they want to be in power, no matter the cost.
This is why I no longer care about rules, other than winning. It’s time to reflect on two basic truths:
- You can have principles, or you can win. If one side is playing a game without rules, you are doomed to lose. Imagine playing Monopoly against the person that is the banker, and who is making interest free loans to himself as needed. You can stand by your principles, but in the end, those principles will see you lined up in front of a trench with a gun to your head. It’s going to get much, much worse.
- All that matters is what you are willing to do, and what you are willing to put up with. This is no longer a philosophical disagreement. It’s a fight for survival.
That famous philosopher Johnny Depp (as Captain Jack Sparrow) said:
Will Turner: You didn’t beat me. You ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I’d kill you.
Jack Sparrow: That’s not much incentive for me to fight fair, then, is it?…The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can’t do.

Don’t let the left tie you down with irrelevancies. Rules are luxuries that only apply in games and civilized society. We are not in either.

Using my values against me, guilting me etc. is a losing position for the left. Because I know where they stand, which is on the wrong side of every issue they confront.
We should continue to be principled in our lives. We should have that compass for morals, right vs wrong. I am however, aware that certain tactical decisions should be made to counter cases when it’s apparent the rules won’t apply.
While the right likes to stand on principles, you’ll see that erode the more aggressive the left gets. Remember when Antifa threatened to come out to the burbs and rural America? They seem to have gotten the message it would not be tolerated so didn’t try. If that should change, and things escalate, you’ll see principled law abiding folks operating in that gray area away from the rules

There is a mindset that permeates the left. They can be horrible nasty dicks, but thats ok, if you respond in kind you assaulted them. They find it real easy to dehumanize you, I used to point that out, thinking maybe they didnt realize what they were doing. Silly naive me, consistently the response was along the lines of right wingers are subhuman, its right and proper to despise those racist, sexist hateful undermenschen.
Remember that joke about the difference between a radical and a moderate moslem. The radical wants to kill you and the moderate is ok with the radical doing it. The left and its propaganda arm are doing a good job of winding these useful idiots up and they have no idea that their only use is to end up laying in a pool of their own blood so their masters can wave the bloody flag and scream about innocents being murdered by fascists. Patriots be warned, they do plan to destroy you.

I think it’s a large thing of the Left thinking they are in the right and there for don’t have to follow the established rules. 100% this happening in Minnesota is to help draw the spotlight off the corruption going on. 10-1 odds that you will see the owners of those various daycares, health care transportation companies having donated to the Ds out there. The left by and large likes rules and imposes them at will on -the others- Anything to keep them in power and anyone else out of it. And to be perfectly clear I dont like the Retardagins either as they largely are much the same so far as securing wealth for themselves and power with little actual care of their constituants or the Constitution.
To which the end game on this is full on radical left wing control much like Canada and Europe is admist of. The goal will be to provide amensty to all the illegals here to secure a left wing voting block for generations much like what happened with the black community (by and large)
When that’s accomplished fully expect there to be enough of a super majority of power to start to amend the Constitution in their views of what it should be.

Then, under those conditions, Antifa are domestic terrorists so why can’t we shoot them on sight?

I remember reading of some war stories about fighting the Japs in WW2 and the only way to defeat them was fight even dirtier than them. You can review history from Saddam Hussain and Pol Pot or virtually any other dictator and the only way they get to and and stay in power is through brutalities. As we see in Iran right now.
So now you see the need to escalate the violence to achieve goals, whether for good or evil. Nagasaki and Hiroshima were the end results of this. Was there alternatives? In reality? No. The pacifists would scream “We could have negotiated more, We just needed more time to discuss terms”. We are watching this play out in real time in the Ukraine. Putin has time, the Ukraine does not.
There is a time coming where 3/4 of the world population will die in wars, famine and disease. Could it be stopped? No. It will be judgement.

Captain Jack’s rules seem to be a slight modification of Mazer Rackam’s :”And the rules of the game (war) are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you.”

It’s going to come to shooting.
We can dance, talk, conjecture, propose… All great, I love mental masturbation. At the end, one side is going to start shooting the other one, until the other side stops. That is it, that is all, that is what’s going to happen. It might be 500 people and a National Guard unit, it might be 3 people and some local cops, or 500,000 and a new nation being formed to pitch an army against the old one.
But its going to continue to escalate, until each side starts shooting each other. Prepare yourself and yours accordingly. That is what you should do w/ the remaining time we have.

Damn. It’s coming soon, isn’t it? (not that it hasn’t been obvious for a long time now)
We’ve been like politicians and the budget. It’s SHTF time. We’ve known it but we kick the can down the road. The end of the road is now in sight.
Double damn.
It’s nice to prepare. How prepared are we for the internet to go dark?
