It was always JFK Liberals who were the liberty-mongers, not Conservatives, not Theists, not Republicans; when we got destroyed, so did the U.S.A.

I always wondered why people would follow a script they weren’t the hero in?
I don't think anyone does. But the trick is in the repeating of the tale. If you're the hero of your own story, but everyone who is not you is the antagonist - then your story has no audience.

Protestant work ethic and shared Judeo-Christian values did more for this nation than JFK or any Kennedy ever did.

Different debate.

Listen to Kennedy’s inauguration speech; no Republican has ever said that.

like when it comes to prepping, I'm not one for building a bunker and filling it with guns

because there's not going to be a gunfight to decide things

my prepping has been to prepare myself for internal exile as the communists inevitably seized control in Canada

That’s what the members of this forum are advocating. I’m old & like a challenge so I’m going down fighting, but it’s hopeless.

this is why I have been building a war chest

I can't fake it, I can't pretend to be Woke, so I can't work in Canada, I can only rely on my assets

Same. Though I feel very far behind the curve, at least I’m not in a major city.

in the Soviet Union the internal exiles were housed in the closed city of Gorky

that's where I live, my own private Gorky

in terms of defeatism, again, I would reference the North Vietnamese

they knew they couldn't beat America head to head, the only way to win was the long war

so even if you are going to "fight", at this stage that simply consists of waiting and preparing, there is no tactical solution

like don't make the mistake of Le Duan, don't launch Tet Offensives

stick with Ho Chi Minh, bide your time, wait out, let the enemy burn the villages for now
