Dark Days Ahead

[Smitty-48]

this is actually happening in Canada right now

Canadian couples are fleeing the Hegelian storm in the cities, to the countryside

although they're not going west

they are going east, to the Maritimes, New Brunswick & Nova Scotia

there is no lockdowns there, there is no urban decay, down home in the Maritimes, it is still God's Country

My wife was named for a city on an island about that way. She's been there, says it's beautiful and really wants to go back.

well actually before they closed the borders, many Americans were moving there as well

it's a golfers & boaters paradise, laid back lifestyle

most people don't realize that the fifth largest immigrant group in Canada is actually Americans

I hate to point out the obvious but "ignoring" it hasn't turned out too great. Ignore your enemies all you want but fighting back has usually worked out for me.

the Hegelian dialectic thanks you

the whole point is to bring the contradictions of society into head to head conflict

the contradictions are to be smashed together repeatedly, yielding progress by tearing the place apart

liberalism relies entirely on live & let live, once that is thrown aside, the Hegelians have won

That’s what every former empire says.

all empires have an arc,

but getting baited into Vietnam to fight the Hegelian war of Hearts & Minds

was none the less a quagmire on that road

[Smitty-48]

personally, I take the Nixonian approach

the left is not a monolith, Vietnam was actually a fight between the Chinese & Soviets

Wokeism is not left v. right, Wokeism is left v. left, internecine circular firing squad

the progressives have gone to war with the liberals

as a conservative, I do not subscribe to the Domino Theory

rather, the strategy here is : when your enemies are fighting each other, don't get in their way

[Martin Hash]

I couldn't hear you through your mask.

Or maybe what you wrote got censored?

Probably just the definition of the words were changed.
