Thank you for acknowledging the Uniparty spectacle! It's clear that the "left" hand is bludgeoning us at the moment, but the right hand's longtime embrace of financial and corporate power is equally to blame here. Let's not get distracted by the back and forth -- which is exactly what they need to keep us divided and disorganized.

🤣 Dems/leftists own corporate and financial power. They are combining this with state power for what Mussolini called "Corporatism," or what we call "Fascism." The right has no power at the moment. What they had, they gave up willingly while trying to be accepted by the zlect to avoid charges of racism and being mean. You can always tell the left has co-opted an organization or institution when they suddenly stop complaining incessantly about it.

Quisling rinoRat "Right", there hasn't been a truly "Right" Presidency except for MAGA Trump, Ronald Reagan, then nothing until Calvin Cooledge.

Before listing all the "Faults" of these 3 Presidents, Understand that these 3 were the ONLY ones holding the Leftist Bolshevik democRats at bay for awhile. Then the Tyrants resumed their march to destroy Constitutional Liberty and basic Human Morality & Decency.

and Yes, Estab Repubs were/are just Grifters & Cowards...... but Not Entirely, and We Do Get a Say one way or another .....

Let's say we're all defending a beach-head that's about to be overrun by Nazis (WEF nazis in this case). Do you think it's a good idea to tell all of the liberals in our ranks (that's over half of all Americans) to leave because you don't like them? We can deal with minor political differences later. At the moment, we're *all* about to get our asses handed to us on a platter by metastasized corporate power. Blaming the left or the right only ensures that it will happen, and happen even faster.

Go after the assholes, by all means. But don't alienate your allies. Plenty of leftists have recognized the problem. Hell, I'm one of them -- and my GOP father is still under the WEF spell.

What a Tangled Web Politics Weave.

Nazis and Bolsheviks are Both Collectivists, but if you see your "Leftism" is separate, then more power to you. btw, How's the "Recruitment" going amongst the Leftists? Just curious.

The mass formation is certainly worse on the left no doubt... but I've seen some slowly waking up. The progress is painfully slow, but steady. The greater the TV consumption, the tighter the hold of the hypnosis.

I'll assume you would not consider yourself a leftist, so here's what I've seen over the last several years. Circa 2015-2016, wokism went into overdrive and infected much of the left. All of those who picked it up basically went insane, and are now worse that covid has been added to the mix.

Keep in mind also the massive rift that developed on the left in 2016. Sanders was drawing crowds approaching 30k at rallies in places like Seattle, whereas Clinton could barely muster 1/10th of that yet still took the nomination. I was a big Sanders supporter, though I'd have to say now that my enthusiasm dwindled as he campaigned for Hillary with her knife clearly visible in his back. I've zero doubt that she rigged the primaries, and have heard accounts from Iowa precinct captains who said the numbers they reported were not the ones that the dems displayed for them. The DNC needed new tabulation software in Iowa for a good reason -- they knew the corporate wing would fail without it. After that experience, the GOP had no difficulty selling me on the idea of a rigged election.

I'm inclined to think that Sanders may have been recruited (knowingly or not, I can't say) to play the fool; to lead the actual left astray and then wilt at the finish line. I see Trump as having done much the same for the right, and can imagine how some of his supporters felt upon realizing this.

I really appreciate your communications. I don't have any contact with "Leftists" but imo, You seem more of a "classical liberal"?

I'm a Jeffersonian "Liberal", anti-Big Gov. especially Feral DC as well as bloated State Govs.

I was earlier on, Tea Party due to out of control Feral Gov $pending under Obama, but the UNI-Party has made the idea of a "Budget" ludicrious since then. There isn't any way to avoid an economic demise at this point with 32 Trillion in just Feral Gov Debt, several State pension funds are upside down too.

So, now I'm just in "Brace for Impact" mode financially. I'll vote Repub in Nov. because I don't want any regrets that I should have voted and didn't.

I don't think the Congressional Repubs will do much more than Bluster, and hold Hearings with no to little results.

I'm anti-foreign wars, domestically is another matter. I'll defend the 1st, & 2nd Amendments to the death. The other amendments are pretty much "historical", hanging by a thread.

I certainly have been through an awakening myself recognizing the predominance of sElected rinoRats in government and that my votes didn't accomplish much of anything.

All I desire now is to be Free & Independent as an individual and hopefully enough others do as well to thwart this NWO Globalist Tyranny.

I suppose classic liberal is probably accurate. Also strongly pro 2nd amendment, generally pro-labor (though I do fully recognize the corruption that permeated many labor unions), and above all pro-environment. The natural world is not just a life support system as I see it, but critical to mental well-being. As an avid skier/climber/hunter/backpacker/fisher/sailor/canoer, and a former forester, current farmer (programming pays the bills nowadays, but isn't really where my heart lies), I could never accept the GOP's complete and utter disregard for environmental issues in favor of wall street profit.

I'm also big on energy -- having studied the subject intensely since the early 2000s. While the WEF has of course taken hold of this as well, the underlying fact is that global oil production peaked in 2018 and is declining regardless of politics. I find it quite interesting that covid was unleashed just after this point. 15 years ago I figured oil decline was happening faster than it did, so learned to farm with horses, heat/cook with wood from our farm, and also to drive an amish buggy (I'm not a believer in "green tech", and consider it an oxymoron). Now after many years of doing that I'm kind of tired of the extra work involved but see that it may be a good way to survive the next few years, so I've stuck with it for the most part.

I suppose the TV version of the blue haired woke liberal is no more representative of the actual left than their portrayal of MAGA republicans as all having a KKK robe in their closet.

I'm quite Conservative and also want to live in a clean environment. Michael Savage has been an Independent Conservative voice outside the media conservative types. I concur on your views, not sure of the oil thing being "Fossil" based though. And ANWAR has a very small section to pump oil from which I support doing. The caribou like the warm pipelines in AK.

So, Well Done on your farming lifestyle, wishing you and yours all the best. You are Way Ahead of most people including me. I've got good neighbors in a mountain hollow and hopefully we can assist each other through the coming travails.
