Larry the Legend Loc: Not hiding in Milton

So said President Trump in his 2019 State of the Union address to Congress. According to the 'Newspaper of Record', "Republicans Already Are Demonizing Democrats as Socialists and Baby Killers." Yes, that's a real headline and it even has a lengthy article to go with it. The article pivots on President Donald Trump's strategy of portraying Democratic Party leaders as a gaggle of radicalized socialists.

Well, according to the Daily Telegraph, "Trump has a good case to make."

"Every one proposes fixing the scourge of "inequality," not by loosening regulatory controls or finding ways to create a more meritocratic society but by confiscating wealth and redistributing it to the alleged victims of capitalism."

Alleged victims. Remember that phrase. Democrats love themselves a good victim.

Why after 37 years as a Registered Democrat I changed to an Independent in June of 2008.

The Democratic Party is following in the footsteps of the National Socialist German Workers' Party. They eliminated all opposing views and led with a One Party System in Germany in the 1930's.

Through their propaganda and heavy handed actions they crushed any opposing thinking.

In the short period of time from 2008 till now, the Democratic Party is crushing any opposing thoughts in their ranks.

William F Buckley Jr said it best in 1959

"In the hands of a skillful indoctrinator, the average student not only thinks what the indoctrinator wants him to think . . . but is altogether positive that he has arrived at his position by independent intellectual exertion. This man is outraged by the suggestion that he is the flesh-and-blood tribute to the success of his indoctrinators.

The United States is very close to being a Socialist Country...

That's a very pertinent quote from Buckley!

I have asked, but no leftist has offered an answer yet:

"So tell me, what are you socialists planning to do with those who refuse to allow America to be transformed into a socialist country if you aren’t going to be fascist [governmental suppression of individual freedom] to do so?"

Simone Norman, friend of AOC, in response to the statement:

“America will never be a socialist country”
Replied:
“duh b...h we’re literally gonna make a whole new country”

In other words, liberals want to use the freedom of speech and thought this country gave us to take away our liberties.

Just like...

These atheists, who want to deny our God-given right to practice and speak of our God and religious values in every area of our lives, forget that it was, for the great part, deeply pious men, who intended to retain their liberty to speak openly of their religious beliefs, who gave these godless atheists the freedom to speak out against freedom of religion!

Just like...

These godless atheists, who were born by the God-sanctified union of one man and one woman wish to erase the distinctions of the sexes which gave them life to begin with!

It's all about the DNA.
America will never be socialist, because as soon as you change America's DNA away from being about liberty and personal accountability, and turn it into a socialist country, what you will have won't be America any longer.

To remove religious liberty by oppressing and disallowing the freedom to practice one's religion, as these godless leftists are attempting, is the will to change the DNA of American liberty to openly practice religious liberty.

And again, when and only when you can change xx chromosomes to xy, or vice-versa, can you actually change a person's sex from female to male or vice versa.

By all accounts then, liberals are in denial of, and destructive to, the natural DNA inherent in people or ideologies, or even governments.

It almost seems to be that it is in their DNA to have this God-complex, where they want to be gods with all the inherent God-like power and authority to determine natural laws, and be worshipped as such, which is, yet another form of an attempt at switching and destroying the natural, God ordained order of things.

But, as you have demonstrated, being "liberal" isn't really as "inherent" to a person's identity as true DNA, because it can be changed by changing one's mind.

You can't change a person's DNA from male to female by changing one's mind. You can't switch from having human DNA to being true "God" by changing one's mind. And you can't change America to a socialist country by attempting to "change" the collected mind [mental consciousness] of Americans.

Thus, by them demanding America change to a socialist country, by that fact alone, demonstrates that they are determined to be fascist [governmental suppression of individual freedom] to get them their god-like status.

First, nobody nowhere 'gave' you those freedoms, you were born with them. I believe the relevant phrase is 'endowed by their Creator'. You'll find it in the preamble to the Declaration of Independence, circa 1776.

Second, in order to 'take them away', an amendment to our founding documents would be required, and I don't see that happening anytime soon so relax, pull up a chair and grab some popcorn. It's going to be fun watching these idiots run themselves ragged trying to take our 'guns and bibles' away. And remember, it's pretty difficult to disarm an armed man.

But remember, our children are being indoctrinated by the schools and those children grow up to be voters, AOC has clearly stated that she will go after every elected Democrat that vote against their agenda... and try and get like minded Democrats to defeat them in the Primaries.

One Party, One Thought, Ruled by an Elite group... Definitely Fascism.

For What It's Worth... Steven Stills

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
Step out of line, the man come and take you away

Elected Democrats have been given the word.. "Step out of line and they will take you away."

You know, I was going to call you out on that, then I looked it up:
Fascism. A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.

Damn! You just might be right!

Tell that to the unborn, and some of the born ones born in the wrong “facility” and deemed inconvenient. Does this country honor their God-given rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Is “only on paper” good enough for them?



Didn’t take any amendment to take them away from the unborn, did it?

If you think it is going to be “fun” watching them try, you are either sick or deluded... some of them may be your friends and neighbors... is that going to be “fun” to you???? Do the words “great tribulation” mean anything to you, and if so, does that idea give you images of fun and games and joy abounding?

Did you consider the gist of my post, or just look for details that you could “set me straight” over?

Larry the Legend Loc: Not hiding in Milton

I just like the idea that I saw all of this coming and I'm ready for what happens next. In the meantime, I'll enjoy my moment of schadenfreude as the sheep are herded yet again to their shearing pens.

and the gist? America becomes a Socialist country'

Nikita Khrushchev... 1956

“We will take America without firing a shot…….We will BURY YOU! We can’t expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism. We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within.”
(From an address to Western Ambassadors at the Polish embassy in Moscow on November 18, 1956.)

That’s not what you said earlier, which was “It's going to be fun watching these idiots run themselves ragged trying to take our 'guns and bibles' away.”

Larry, for your information:

There is no way to "FIX" inequality of income. I have 3 advanced university degrees, the acquirenent of taking a lot of years, money and effort. On my job I often worked long days, 8 am to 10 pm, with no compensation for the extra hours except comp time which I never had time to take. But I vividly recall my secretary's ( HS diploma) resentment of the, in her view, inequality of our salaries. In her view she did all the work, not me. She gave no consideration to the degrees required for my job, nor the long, long days, nor the preparation needed. Nope, she just felt that she deserved to be paid the same as me, regardless of the difference in job requirements. The poor will always be with us, as will the lazy, the grifters, the shirtless, the scammers. But, to a man, they all resent anyone who is more materially successful, believing they deserve just as much with no willingness to earn it. The USA never promised anything but opportunities for all willing to work for them. And the truth is that many people are simply unwilling to put in the WORK for their opportunities. God given capabilities do help determine our paths, but not as much as the willingness to work for our chances. I recently read the story of the functionally mentally retarded man who was retiring after 30 years employment at a fast food restaurant. The kudos he received from all his bosses, co workers and customers were glowing. I read about those with serious and debilitating physical disabilities being at work every day. Personally, I think the federal welfare program is one of the worst things ever done in our country, to our country.

I agree, but I also see our country becoming less and less America and American every year.
