Pro-life hypocrisy? Voting for pro-abortion politicians...

There is an overwhelming push by the Republican Party to make abortion, at least under certain forms, to be acceptable. The abortion issue is gradually becoming a less decisive factor now for many Republican politicians when it comes to courting religious voters. This is simply just a fact of modern political life. This means that for a pro-lifers to continue to vote, there are fewer and fewer pro-life candidates to choose from. Democrats who are pro-life tend to exist at very local levels. Though they do exist, most Democrat candidates do support abortion under the banner of "women's reproductive rights". What exactly is someone who is pro-life to do?

This question came up for me last week and there was heated reproach and argument and slander directed regarding the topic. I live in Virginia as some of you know and there was the Virginia Governor's race. I have been deeply concerned about the presentation of autism by the current Trump Administration and I desired to have a counter-party representation at some level of government in Virginia. I ended up voting a split-ticket where I voted for candidates belonging to both parties. At the top of that ticket was my vote for Governor-Elect Abigail Spanberger. I have strong approval for the outgoing Gov. Glenn Youngkin and I definitely did not see my vote being cast as a rejection of the Republican Party overall nor did I see my vote as a rejection of conservative ideology. Our now outgoing Delegate whom I voted to support the re-election of is strongly pro-life.

Nevertheless, my vote for Abigail Spanberger drew great ire from many people on social media who are very well of my pro-life stances and also are very well of my Catholicity. Some of them claimed that Spanberger's policy platform was abortion up to the point of birth. I honestly do not think that this is going to be pushed for in Virginia after what happened with Gov. Ralph Northam back in 2019, but I could be wrong as politicians are sinners. That said, Spanberger's public statements have indicated support for limitations on third trimester abortions and supports parental consent laws currently present in the state for minors seeking abortion. I certainly don't think her position is perfect, but I don't see anything in her platform that suggested anything of the sort of a pro-abortion up to the point of birth position.

One conservative man I follow even cracked a joke about Youngkin's current preparation for transition and stated that Spanberger hasn't even become governor yet and is already forcing people to transition. This is a reflection regarding her LGBTQ policies and how conservatives have presented Spanberger as being "ultra-left" on that position too. Where she stands on gender transitions for minors is no where indicated on her platform, though she has stated that she affirms handling issues on transgender involvement in sports and in bathrooms should be settled on individual bases. There is nothing in her platform that would universally put local communities at risk of harm from predators pretending to be women. To paint her as an extremist one way or the other is simply slander.

Is it possible she is disingenuous? Like all politicians, I think that many try and court two views, but Spanberger's platform is of a centrist-Democrat and not a hardliner on either point. But the more important question should be addressed as to whether it is pro-life hypocrisy to have voted for her to begin with. I have several points to address on this issue.

Catholics on social media often like to portray a vote for a candidate as being tantamount to supporting the whole of that candidate's positions and much in online Catholic sources support this as well. Shamefully, many Catholic priests seem hell-bent on holding people accountable not to vote for particular candidates one way or the other. I received spiritual guidance from three different priests on the issue and all spoke similar. The first priest told me that given two bad options, it is preferable to go with the lesser evil. Often times, the lesser evil is a subjective position. Winsome Earle-Sears, Spanberger's opponent, unfortunately pivoted on the issue of abortion making her, at best, a lesser evil...and in the greater context of Christian polity where multiple issues ought to be pursued, made voting for her against Spanberger to be less ideal. My godfather also pointed out that while for him, abortion is a decisive factor in who he votes for, there are circumstances where others may choose to take into account other issues. The Archimandrite also affirmed that there are a variety of other issues involved in Christian polity besides abortion and sometimes one just has to hold their nose and vote.

While it could be held that "not voting" is the "moral high ground", I've been spiritually advised in the past never to waste a vote by not voting. If it wasn't for that advice, from a man who grew up under the aftermath of Nazi Germany, I would hold that philosophy too. But I don't. And these are all sincere men who are strongly pro-life, actively engaged in the March for Life yearly, and one who refused to acknowledge Joe Biden's Catholicity over the abortion issue. These are not heterodox men but men who have a deeply orthodox track record whom I would put my trust in before a heartbeat.

Voting for a person, regardless of where they stand on issues, no matter how ungodly, is much different than voting for a policy since voting for a person requires that one put their trust in a human being who by nature is subjected to the effects of original sin. This is why voting for a person should not be seen as being tantamount to supporting the policies of that person. Voting for a person requires more investigation often and can end up leading to a much less informed electorate than voting for a policy. We elect representatives to govern us and under the principles of democracy, those elected officials are supposed to represent our best interests. While they can only represent the interests of a collective whole which is already varied to begin with, their duty is to represent the best interests of the public as possible.

I wanted a situation of balance where the dignity of autistic people are protected. This is also a very significant part of Christian polity. No human being is a demon, regardless of what sorts of evil they may find the winds taking them to favor. Human beings are all looking for God in the end and some do it while using very sinister means. That doesn't make them sinister in themselves. Politicians are exactly like this. There isn't a single politician who is unlike this. Democracy allows people to give input and feedback to their government via the voting process. It's not a perfect system nor is it a perfect or always accurate reflection of the values of the populace, but it is the system that we have been given to work under. Voting for one particular representative over another does not tie you to the wicked policies of that person unless your intent was to support whatever policies that would lead to these sinister positions. It does not make someone a hypocrite who supports these policies nor is it a mortal sin. Politicians are imperfect and both sides often support wicked things. As Christians, we have the duty to pray for all elected officials. So let us remember to pray for the Governor-Elect Abigail Spanberger and for all our civil magistrates, let us pray to the Lord!

What scares our political elite?


A book I strongly suggest right now is The Myth of National Defense, edited by Hans-Hermann Hoppe. From the year 2003, the series of essays that are included in it contains a strong warning about the current state we have reached in recent times. It's main thesis is on national defense and the neo-conservative abuse of national defense. But the essays that it includes are well worth the time to peruse. As I was reading it the other day, I came across in the essay titled "The Will to be Free: The Role of Ideology in National Defense" by Jeffrey Rogers Hummel, the following:
"The famed zoologist Richard Dawkins has offered the intriguing proposition that ideas have striking similarities to genes. Many apparent paradoxes in biological evolution disappeared once biologists recognized that the process was driven by the success with which 'selfish' genes (rather than individuals or species) could replicate themselves. Dawkins suggested the term 'memes' be applied to ideas, whose capacity to replicate in other minds likewise determines their spread. No matter how useful this parallel between cultural and genetic evolution may ultimately prove, it at least helps to disabuse us of the illusion that an idea's validity is the sole or primary factor in its success. Those who doubt that false ideas can be tremendously influential need only glance at the worldwide success of so many mutually exclusive religions. It is not simply that they cannot all be true simultaneously; if one is true, then many of the others are not simply false, but badly false. ... The State, for instance, appears to have played no part in the birth and initial growth of Christianity, and the draconian efforts that many governments devote to the suppression of dissent testifies to the threat posed by that kind of autonomous ideological development. ... A people who have successfully fabricated the ideological solidarity necessary to overthrow their domestic rulers would be extremely difficult to conquer, as we have already observed." (291-294)
This scares our ruling class big time. Tucker Carlson compares what is going on in America right now similar to winning a tennis match in which the victors seek to smack the loser on the face. Biden won, the Democrats have majority control in both Houses of Congress, be happy! But it's a lot more complicated than that. The Democrats needed more than just to win. It's not like winning a tennis match 6-4, 1-6, 7-6, 0-6, 7-6. You just barely eked out a close victory getting decimated in a couple of rounds on the way, but you won, your opponent has no victory claim. It's not like that. For the Democrats, this is an ideological war. Ideas can spread like a wildfire and with increasing polarization, Democrats are well aware that an electoral college victory of 306-232 is not enough to win against the will of 74,000,000 voters that are charged against their ideologies. They need to make certain this ideology of "Trumpism" cannot spread ever again. They won't care about nullifying the Constitution on the way. They can interject their own interpretations after all. The goal is to win the ideological war and Trumpism has proven a most formidable opponent against the establishment philosophy of permanent Washington. For the establishment neo-cons, Trumpism isn't just something to beat in an election, it is something that needs to die out permanently. The damage to the establishment caused by this ideology isn't going away any time soon.

In defense of Confederate statues


I'm actually talking about all monuments here. Statues, cemeteries, war memorials, etc. Confederate monuments need to be defended, not because of what they stand for people who are revulsed by them but because of what they stand for the people who put them up. As I have written before, a compelling case can be made in support of the Confederate secessionist movement from the Union. Before casting judgments, that article should be read in full because I provided a very well sustained argument for the Confederacy.

People these days talk of "charity" and "love for your neighbor" as if that is the equivalent of "do not offend your neighbor". It is nothing of the sort. It is to be understandable that things we come across will offend us and cause revulsion. Some things will cause revulsion to us throughout our lives. This is part of becoming an adult. It is how we respond. The problem with Confederate monuments is not their existence but the response to their existence.

In the history following the defeat of the Confederacy there was a long and bitter reunification process called "Reconstruction". Reconstruction is almost universally disparaged by American historians. Former Confederate states were held under what was essentially a military occupation which damaged their economic production and held them as essential slaves of the GOP. The period of Reconstruction ended with the heated and contested Presidential election of 1876 as Democratic candidate Samuel Tilden soared in nationwide popularity with nearly 51% of the majority voting for him. His Republican opponent, Rutherford B. Hayes, staggered with three points less in the nationwide vote. For a long time 20 electoral votes were contested as Tilden held a 184-165 lead. Back then, 185 was the deciding number. After long and bitter contentions, the electoral votes were given to Hayes with the concessions that Republicans would withdraw military troops.

The period of Reconstruction ended. Then came the Jim Crow laws and with them, the Confederate monuments. While it is easy to connect these statues to a "culture of racism", historians tend to know that people are more complex then what our modernist sensibilities seek to limit to them. For these Southerners, it wasn't simply about an animosity they held toward blacks, it was an animosity they had been fostering from the Reconstruction period toward the Union. The Union were centralizers and oppressors. These statues were put up in protest. But statues were put up, nonetheless.

This is the difference between Black Lives Matter, Anti-fa, and White Southerners. White Southerners have a culture. BLM and Anti-fa are about cultural destruction and annihilation. To White Southerners, these things have strong significant meaning and represents their history of oppression. BLM and Anti-fa have been able to scream that they have victimhood status but they use their victimhood to drag people down to their own inhuman level. They do not build culture or contribute to society. They denigrate and degrade society. The people who put up statues of Martin Luther King, Jr., Booker T. Washington, Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, Malcolm X, these are the people who build and contribute to culture. Confederate statues were placed in protest of the Union and they built up a culture and contributed to American culture. The solution to their existence is not to destroy or remove them but to leave them up and add more statues of honorable men.

My Endorsement of President Donald Trump for Re-Election - Part 5, LAW AND ORDER


We have had chaos since Memorial Day. People are getting sick and tired of these riots. The media has made up a series of slanderous lies and cover-ups for their Biden-voters even while admitting to them. The Washington Compost has threatened violence if Trump wins, naturally. There is good reason to presume that if Trump wins, the transition of power will not be peaceful. But that is for another part in this lengthy endorsement. It is not a good state for our democracy either way.

When the riots first broke out, there was obvious, undeniable destruction of private property and Democrat leaders were busy manufacturing excuses for the violence. Such as the bold declarations that the violence is part of "racial justice" and other nonsense such as that. None of it is justifiable. No suffering is justifiable. If Floyd was murdered (and growing evidence shows he likely wasn't), then suffering cannot be justified. Yet Democrat leaders rushed to impose this on the rest of us. Trump was severely blocked by Democratic leaders from enforcing order. There is nothing more fundamentally important to freedom than proper order. If private property can be taken freely, there is no freedom.

Even the Libertarian candidate, Jo Jorgensen, failed to condemn the barbarity that was enacted against private property throughout the country. Instead, she participated in a protest. Albeit, that protest was entirely peaceful, but she never condemned the rioting or the looting nor stood to defend private property. Looting and rioting and burning down churches are never acceptable. And so Trump was the only leader to be able to have the nerves to dump tear gas on a group of rioters threatening to burn down a church. He received much flak for that from the neo-con ruling class. According to James Mattis, the only time you're allowed to use force is on a hospital in the Middle East.

Yet even still, the feds wouldn't put up with the Lincoln Memorial being savagely vandalized. It was only then that the neo-con establishment started caring somewhat. But Trump and Barr actually went to measures to protect a church and they were condemned for that. Neo-con sources condemned their usage of tear gas on "peaceful" protesters. There was no evidence that this group of protesters was peaceful. They just ran along with that demonic lie. The real reason why they attacked Trump is because he had the nerve to defend a church from being savagely ripped to shreds by a hoard of Vandals.

The current climate in Portland is even more proof that law and order is needed. Prior to sending in the feds, rioters were ripping apart and barbarously ripping down and burning down buildings. Nothing was stopping them. The Democrats blamed Trump for the violence. Trump didn't cause any of it. They knew that. It was all a demonic lie. Trump sent the feds in, the rioters were quelled. Trump withdrew the feds, the rioting started again and yet the Democrat leaders made the egregiously false claim that Trump's usage of federal law enforcement was fueling the riots. A Trump-supporter was viciously murdered on August 29, 2020. Immediately following, the Portland police were deputized to act as federal agents. The rioting is quelled yet again.

Trump also had a response to Kenosha when the riots broke out. Gov. Tony Evers refused to let the police enforce the law. Trump sent in the National Guard. Cities that are burned to the ground are not free cities. Rioters and looters and barbarians roaming around the land is not evidence of a free society. Barbarians should be rounded up and locked up. Get the bums off the street! Trump was the only one in government to defend a church from being burned down. If he is condemned for that, then he should be put in office another four years. The swamp is not drained, the swamp creatures are trying to finish him off.

My Endorsement of President Donald Trump for Re-Election - Part 4, The Military Industrial Complex


The war economy created in Germany in 1914 "is the first realization of a socialist society and its spirit the first active, and not merely demanding of a socialist spirit." (Hayek, The Road to Serfdom, 185)

From his campaign in 2016, President Trump has consistently vowed to withdraw troops from war-zones in the Middle East specifically. These are where our current wars are taking place. There can be no doubt that the warrior-like mentality is what fuels most the fascist and socialist spirit. As war calls for allegiances to be made and divisions to be mandated. War has united people together and it has divided people against themselves. War has generated heroism and it has generated barbarity. But a socialist empire is one that thrives on keeping perpetual wars continuing. Perpetual wars of aggression of "us vs. them". It is no surprise to find the Warlord John Kerry reflecting on the U.S. entrance into World War II as a motivation to keep the continued wars going in the Middle East. Indeed, he lost to Bush, who started the war in Iraq and the war in Afghanistan. It is always some war the neo-cons wage as an effort to control society.

If one wants proof and further enunciation on the controlling effects of the "warrior class" on society, one need look no further than Animal Farm or 1984. The pigs were constantly at war with one farm or another and this kept the animals in check, this fueled their devotion to the pigs, and it generated complete dependence on the pigs for their survival. Oceania was also constantly at war whether it be with Eurasia or Eastasia. The goal of perpetuating wars was to keep the denizens of Oceania submissive and dependent on The Party. Any one who thinks it is fascist to not perpetuate the wars is either lying, a fascist, or is simply ignorant of history. Trump though has taken a remarkably different attitude. Sen. Rand Paul stated at the RNC,

President Trump is the first President in a generation to seek to end war rather than start one. He intends to end the war in Afghanistan. He is bringing our men and women home. Madison once wrote, "No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare."

I had even mentioned on a blog of my own that never got going that the President has had a remarkable performance, despite the severe neo-con pushback in his administration, of doing exactly this.

In addition, he has also begun withdrawal of troops from not only Syria but also from Afghanistan. Again, if you are a neo-con, you are probably in a frantic fury about this. Maybe you like dropping bombs on other countries that we’re not even technically at war with? But war is not a good thing. It is an objectively bad thing. Even if we accept the premise that a just war is morally permissible, that does not magically mark war as “sometimes” a good thing. It marks a just war as, at best, a necessary evil needed to remedy potential outbreaks of other significant moral wrongs used to oppress people. Further, there was never any evidence put forward of Assad’s guilt any way. Another significant accomplishment being the most recent is the peace talks with the Taliban.5 The war in Afghanistan has been going on nearly two decades and finally, there is evidence that the war is finally coming to an end. That is not just simply a policy accomplishment for the President, that is an accomplishment that his two predecessors failed to achieve. This, despite his own “lack of experience”. Poli-hack Blog

In the early goings of his administration, Kim Jong Un was launching nukes left and right. There was strong rhetoric but the goal was to send a defensive warning to Kim Jong Un that Trump would not allow Los Angeles to be nuked. A defensive war is permissible but not wanted. All of a sudden, Kim Jong Un had a major change of heart and agreed to meet with Trump. You haven't heard of the rhetoric any more as of that point. The administration has made recent mistakes with Iran but in the United Arab Emirates' peace treaty with Israel, Iran may become less of a problem in the future.

Trump has been a constant enemy of the neo-con establishment and by continuing to pull troops from war zones, he has taken this country tremendously in the right direction. That is the complete opposite of what a fascist leader would do. Vote for Trump if you want fewer wars. Biden's campaign is under the complete control of the military industrial complex that will continue to feed terrorist groups like the Kurds and al-Nusra.

My Endorsement of President Donald Trump for Re-Election - Part 3, Immigration (cont...The New Slavery of Wall Street)


What if there was a way for the mega-corporations to further stampede on the competition and assert their dominance by exploiting cheap labor? Would people support it? Would people cry foul and declare it slavery? Or would the fools just let it happen right underneath our noses? What if I said they already have been letting it happen right underneath our noses?

A common theme for the proponents of unrestricted free immigration seems to be that immigrants perform labor that Americans tend not to want to perform. Huh?!? They pick cotton, work on farms, pick the strawberries, etc. And they do it for less pay! Well that may be all well and true but...this is the exact same thing that the U.S. abolished in the 1860's! It is true, there is a new form of slavery that the Wall Street execs love. Certainly, David Koch loves it! If cheap labor is implemented, we drive costs down, save money, and food gets to people at a lower price. Hence, why he stuffs the money into the corporate shills in the Republican party. Those same corporate shills that are backing Biden.

Indeed, this is just a new form of slave importation. You shovel in the people who are in Wall Street's eyes just products for labor, you put them to work, and Wall Street saves money while making more money. Those who follow the rules are crushed while Wall Street wallows in the glory. David Koch gets to call it "libertarian-conservatism" as his allies at the CATO Institute spread article after article defending the big corporations and the unrestricted free migration process. Because these undocumented immigrants possess no social security, Wall Street can safely "un-person" them at will before they're caught, pay lower rates than the minimum wage, and nobody knows they're being scammed because they haven't learned what the minimum wage rate is.

It's true, the primary enemy in all of this is going to be fixed wage rates, fixed pricing, etc. But it was Wall Street's cartels that established these rules. Small businesses have historically been the ones most crushed by the cartels and the monopolistic rule impositions, not a single small business has ever been sustained by making Target or Walmart play by the rules. This all started with railroads, then it shifted gradually over to banks. Now we're seeing it happen all over Wall Street. So the usage of unrestricted free immigration is something that these major corporations really love. The fast food chains, the growers, the supermarkets, the elite celebrities who are looking for housekeepers, etc. As soon as there's cheap labor, they take it in and rake it in.

There are two solutions to this...
1. Enforce the rules equally - but Wall Street has the money and the means to pay the punishments, small businesses don't.
2. End the importation of slaves.

It's obvious enough that the call to end fixed wages, especially for entry-level jobs, would go a long way as well. But even still, ending the importation of slaves is a must for collective bargaining and guilds to retake the scenes again. Undermine the sources that Wall Street has and stop giving in to the shills for Wall Street.

Don't think for a minute that these Wall Street shills who fawn over Biden's "humanitarian justice" on immigration are somehow past racism. These are the people who attacked our immigrant First Lady for having bad English. These are the same people who have scammed undocumented immigrants out of hard-earned money. These are the despicable slaveholders. Corporate shills like Biden would continue the never-ending slave trade that continues underneath the masked name of "human rights".

*As I covered most of my positions on immigration in the Part 2, I don't intend to make this one too long. Just to hammer in the point of which side Wall Street is on.

My Endorsement of President Donald Trump for Re-Election - Part 1, Trade


I had been hesitant to officially proffer my full support of Donald Trump before but as I see the political winds spiral downwards and compare and contrast the Democratic National Convention with the Republican National Convention, I can fully state that it will be easier to vote Trump in 2020 than it was in 2016. Like I've said before, there are a lot of reasons not to back him but the case for him is too overwhelming. The question should realistically be asked first and foremost is this--would a Libertarian President really be able to stop Congressional budget bills? Probably not as effectively as Trump has been able to stop them. As long as Congress is taken over by irresponsible budget-makers, big government spending will continue. Therefore, I am fully retracting my initial endorsement of Jo Jorgensen.

Now, to begin the full-fledged endorsement. The first policy I will look at is trade policy. The former Sen. Jeff Flake has lately been attempting to smear Donald Trump on his "non-conservative" trade policies. Let's put this bluntly, conservatism needs to reject Sen. Jeff Flake's trade policies. Conservatism in America has been tainted by its staunchest enemies as being more invested in Wall Street than it has in those who are most vulnerable, especially the poor and the economically disadvantaged. The last thing we need is to give further into this delusion by shaking our heads with Sen. Jeff Flake that this is what conservatism ought to be and look like. Conservatism has nothing to do with the Wall Street-backing trade policies of the former Senator.

Sen. Jeff Flake has condemned Donald Trump on at least three different accounts of the President's trade policies and I will rebut all of them and show what a shill for Wall Street Joe Biden is. The Trash Pacific Partnership (TPP for short) is a trade deal that served to back the Wall Street gang and rigged the economy against the lower-class small businesses. The TPP's intent is to

further transfer the negotiation and implementation of trade policy into the hands of a small number of global regulators and bureaucrats, while further reducing the prerogatives of Congress and state legislators in the US. Indeed, citizens of all twelve member nations of the TPP will see trade policy become more remote and unknowable thanks to the TPP. And, since trade is but one small part of the agreement, we can expect a further shift toward opaque and authoritarian global decision making on everything from environmental policy to the internet to immigration. (Mises.org, We Need Actual Free Trade, Not the TPP)

The TPP is so full revolting to the concept of free trade and so monstrous a demon to small businesses that even former Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton opposed entrance into the TPP. Then came Trump who actually pulled us out of the TPP. The purpose of such trade goals is for the government to regulate the trade and control the economy to determine winners and losers. This is good for Wall Street. This is good for the Wall Street donors that still shovel money to Flake to speak out against the President and no doubt good for Biden who will be twice the Wall Street shill as Obama, but it isn't good for small businesses, nor is it good for a free and FAIR economy.

Similarly, Flake has also attacked the President on his NAFTA policies. NAFTA was championed by the Clintons in the 1990s as well as several Wall Street backed Republicans including George H. W. Bush who negotiated the deal for NAFTA before it was signed by Bill Clinton. But NAFTA has been detrimental to the American auto industry (PRI's The World, "From NAFTA to TPP, Hillary Clinton's position is complicated, and evolving"). The government regulation and control of the economy has killed jobs, moved work to other places, and has made turned economics into a series of trade wars. These are not good deals. While certainly Sanders' supporters oppose these and that might be sufficient to say that these are "fiscally conservative" deals, that is primarily because "fiscally conservative" has been hijacked by the globalist Wall Street beneficiary.

Let's not even get started with the Paris Climate Accord (or, rather, the Paris Climate Discord). The Paris Climate Discord set it's aim out to throw money into the global climate change crisis to lower the world's temperatures. Sure, there might be need for green energy as an alternative to usage of fossil fuels but the climate change doomsday-sayers have officially gone into a full-blown money-laundering cult. If the solution is to "throw money into policies that claim to lower the economy" then it's not a solution, it's abuse. Do you go up to someone and steal their money to distribute it to charity? No? Why not? Because it's theft! The climate change crisis movement has become a money-laundering, thieving cult that has targeted countries like India and has left them in third world chaos. Apart from that, most of the money from the Paris Climate Discord was going to China, the world's leading polluter. If this is the solution to combating global warming, then it must be a hoax invented by the Chinese! I say that tongue and cheek, but seriously, this smacks of a money scam, not an actual accord! Hence, we call it the Paris Climate Discord. Good for Wall Street, bad for small business, manufacturing, and engineering jobs.

Let's now turn to tariffs. Obviously, Trump has a major issue when it comes to tariffs and the most aggressive liberal-conservatives are going to try and nail him here. "We need free and fair trade!" Exactly. The problem is, we don't live in a free and fair world. If the tariffs punish bad actors, tariffs can be tolerated. Thus far, Trump has limited his tariffs against China. He has threatened Mexico and Canada but has never formally gone through with them and I don't expect he will. As long as they are only directed at China with respect to its human rights violations, this can be tolerated until China ends slavery.

Trump's trade policy has been far from perfect but it is better than the Wall Street shill Joe Biden. Biden would invest in defending failed policies like NAFTA which have victimized engineering and manufacturing jobs in the U.S. and have sent them to Mexico. This might be good for Wall Street but absolutely no one in the rust belt. Biden would further keep laundering tax-payer money to China in the name of fighting global warming while China uses that money for God knows what including even pumping out more pollution. Biden would turn a blind eye onto China's grotesque human rights violations. Wall Street would love it. They would end up getting cheap labor, they could form monopolies, and the globalist super-powers would continue as they did before Trump--with the little guys losing and the big boys in Wall Street becoming the beneficiaries of the New World Order. Sen. Flake's characterization of Biden as "more conservative on trade than Trump" is simply nothing more than a highlight of how much a shill for Wall Street Biden is.

End Part 1.

The intrusion of Malthusian economics into the Democratic Party

The "how" are they going to pay for these welfare programs they propose is no longer relevant. The Democratic Party has now since worked out the bug in this philosophical dilemma. They won't even need to pay for welfare! Indeed, the Democratic Party has fully subsumed the death-cult that Brian Niemeier has been discussing for years now. It is a cult given totally over to the worship of the demonic institutions that celebrate death, Satan, famine, war, violence, fornication, every single vice. All of a sudden, the problem of economic populists on the Left embracing Marxism have become tame. Of course, the schools which modern day Marxism have been broken down into have almost even watered down its overt anti-religious sentiment that it would once bore. Bernie Sanders in 2016 seems almost frail in comparison to what the Democratic Party started to become under the neo-con migration back toward the Party when Hillary Clinton took the realms. It's all but fully gone over to the hands of death now.

But even as Marxist anti-Christians begin to dominate the Democratic Party, still, the worst among us are those who feign the most economically "right wing" stances because, well, at least they're not socialists! Indeed, the Keynesians have taken a radically anti-social death-cult bend as they drift back toward the Democratic Party from which they came in order to "get rid of Trump". I mentioned this earlier in my piece on how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris aren't radical leftists, they're much worse. There is a new economic principle in the Democratic Party that has not been discussed by either the media or the neo-cons that have hijacked the #MAGA movement. And with good reason. If people started talking about it, the Democratic Party might as well go ahead and dig its own grave and hand over the election once again.

This economic doctrine is the doctrine of Thomas Robert Malthus. For Malthus, the issues in this world of poverty and famine were explained by the increasing rise in human population. He proposed that crime, disease, war, pestilence, and  vice are necessary checks on the human population which is the gravest hindrance to an economically prosperous society. Even regulation of reproduction is necessary to prevent people from giving birth to more children than they can support. Today's Democratic Party has been using every single one of these mechanisms to keep the population in check. It's almost as if China's population control mechanisms have sifted into their usage. They use COVID-19 to lock people in doors. They unleash criminals back into society in order to heighten the murder rate in our inner cities. They endorse every single sexual vice and sexual fornication, mandate that people provide contraceptives for one another as a matter of "altruism". Now, the neo-cons have found a nesting home to advance the death-cult agenda one notch further up. The neo-cons have found their new champion in Joe Biden. Joseph II of the House of Biden has become their Dark Lord of Chaos to usher in the reign of terror.

It used to be that the Democratic Party was a party that had flaws and flawed characters. Critical race theory has become a new guise for them to advance the death-cult. They have made a mockery of every single Christian social teaching and our Christian leaders won't even condemn them because they have been duped into thinking that their fight is against racism. But the end goal is obviously more sinister. Every Republican that has endorsed Biden so far has had some background in the neo-con death-cult or the reproductive restrictions death-cult. I am not even shocked any more to find this. Former Rep. Charlie Dent has received high ratings from population control advocacy groups including a 100% rating from Population Action International. That was the realization for me that Malthus was behind the economic movement for the Democratic Party.

So how are they going to pay for these social programs they propose? Don't be ridiculous! They're expanding reproductive restrictions, engaging in endless wars, promoting homosexuality and transgender euphorism, releasing violent criminals back into the streets all before our very eyes! How they are going to pay for these social programs is irrelevant when they won't even have to pay for them! Don't listen to those liars stating that this is between capitalist and Marxist economics. Biden is capitalist to the core. He won't let Marxists up-stage him as he runs the Presidency. One would have to be a fool to think not. Not with his Vice President Kamala Harris being funded by Wall Street. No, this is a fight against Malthusian economics. It is a fight against the extermination of the human population.

This has trivially nothing to do with pitting socialists against capitalists. This is a full-blown death-cult that has its roots in the Malthusian economic system of the lat 18th century. It should be warned for people to ignore the news cycle for the duration and heed against the evils of Malthus's An Essay On the Principle of Population. The Democratic Party doesn't carry a principled economic philosophy. They carry an extermination philosophy that they hope will lead to economic prosperity. That is why they have adopted every single pro-death policy in the book. Crime, war, abortion, sterilization, pestilence, etc. These are the checks to keep the human population in check, indoors, dependent on government services until the population is further shrunk down to size. Think this is a conspiracy? Yet it is happening right in front of our eyes and the neo-cons continue to embed the final element of war into the mix!

Biden and Harris aren't radical leftists...but they are dangerous criminals

Let me begin by discussing two meanings of the term conservative. The first meaning is to refer to someone as conservative who generally supports the status quo; that is, a person who wants to conserve whatever laws, rules, regulations, moral and behavioral codes happen to exist at any given point in time.

Because different laws, rules, and political institutions are in place at different times and/or different locations, what a conservative supports depends on ad changes with place and time. To be a conservative means nothing specific except to like the existing order, whatever that may be.

The first meaning can be discarded, then. The term conservative must have a different meaning. What it means, and possibly only can mean, is this: Conservative refers to someone who believes in the existence of a natural order, a natural state of affairs which corresponds to the nature of things: of nature and man. ... Conservatives..., if they stand for anything, stand for and want to preserve the family and the social hierarchies and layers of material as well as spiritual-intellectual authority based on and growing out of family bonds and kinship relations. (Hans-Hermann Hoppe, Democracy: The God That Failed, 187-188)

I start with this lengthy quote from the 10th chapter of Hoppe's work Democracy: The God That Failed, because already, the death-cult members of "Republicans for Joe Biden" and the Lincoln Project are trying to frame the Biden/Harris ticket (her name means horrible in Finnish, let's change that to the Biden/Horrible ticket from here on out) as somehow a "conservative" ticket and not the demonic ticket that it is. For conservatives who don't know what the term actually refers to, that narrative is craftily designed to persuade them to the Biden/Horrible ticket. And yet Biden/Horrible are only conservatives in the meaningless first sense of the word. But terms such as "racism" are already relegated to meaninglessness so did we actually expect an intellectually engaging definition of the term from such mindless, brain-dead, zombies? We shouldn't have.

But that said, don't get confused. Biden/Horrible shouldn't be thought of as radical leftists either. In fact, such misleading terminology the other way may actually persuade some radical leftist visionaries to vote for the Biden/Horrible ticket! To be a leftist is to be a fanatic in favor of populist gutting of the corporate hierarchies and excel to income equality. Biden/Horrible are funded and assisted by Big Tech, Wall Street, the Banks, Big Pharma, you name it! They have no intention of promoting a populist left-wing government. They're solidly in favor of preserving the corruption that the Clinton-Bush-Obama administrations sewed. They're no allies of the left at all. And the left knew that back in 2018 and they still affirmed back in 2019 and they divided amongst themselves between Warren and Sanders and are now paying the price for their inner discord with the Biden/Horrible ticket.

To say that Biden/Horrible are dangerous criminals is not a term used lightly. The Democrats talked of Russian collusion for years immediately following Trump's election win in 2016. The story, as Trump called it, was a hoax. The Democrats have actually never had a problem with Trump's lies though they act like they do. They hate it more when he tells the truth. Such as the caravan of illegal migrants before the 2018 midterms, that Russian collusion was a hoax, that there is violence being done in Portland, OR, etc. They cried that Trump was obstructing justice by declaring the story a hoax. By firing James Comey whom they had forgotten they hated. But Biden bragged about how he got the Ukrainian lawyer off his son's tail. Naturally, the media, realizing the story would not help their narrative, began making up excuses.

But their corruption doesn't end there. In 2008, the Bush/Cheney administration began a habit of war crimes that I have jestingly referred to as "wedding crashing". The Haska Meyna wedding airstrike was carried out in July 6, 2008. The Wech Baghtu wedding party was bombed November 3, 2008. Both of these killed innocent civilians. Nobody seemed to dare challenge Bush on it at the time. Inspired by this demonic activity of the Bush administration, the Obama/Biden administration duplicated the events in Yemen in 2015. That was a U.S. backed Saudi-led coalition that carried out that raid and it received universal condemnation from the U.N. and yet no one was punished for it, proving the U.N. to be useless in promoting peace throughout the world. Don't forget the wedding bombed in 2013 either. The pattern was even more frequent than the examples I have given here as it started in 2008 but if there is anything that will be "conservative" in the Biden/Horrible administration, you can guarantee it will be this.

Horrible herself has a streak of criminally violating the Constitutional rights of people for political expedience. There was an ongoing joke in the Soviet Union that you had free speech, you'd just be thrown in jail if you exercised it. Horrible is no exception to the Soviet philosophy. In 2015, David Daleiden released videos from a Planned Parenthood that exposed their human sacrifice philosophy. Daleiden was pursued and probed by the then Atty. Gen. of California, Horrible. Planned Parenthood is funded by tax-payer money. This makes it public property. It is open for the press to freely report on it. For Horrible, freedom of the press doesn't apply to people who criticize the death-cult. It only applies to the zombified worshipers of the death-cult. Death is what the neo-cons have always worshiped.

It's really not shocking at all to see the Republicans who support the Biden/Horrible ticket. These Republicans are the Wall Street invested ilk, the neo-con warmongerers, the kind of Republicans that make people of common sensibility want to not walk but run away in terror from the GOP. I couldn't care any less for whatever such-and-such Republican says. I'm not even a Republican so why should I care if you're a Republican voter for Biden? I'm politically unaffiliated for a reason. It's the McCain-style Republicans that want to see Biden elected. The Bush-style Republicans. The Graham-style Republicans. The Romney-style Republicans. The con artists and the warmongerers want to oust a man under the banner that he's a con artist. Ha ha! Too funny. There is really no principled wit that these neo-cons have left in them. They're sold out in worship of their demonic leaders that cry out for blood. They think Trump leads a death-cult because he couldn't contain a virus that has a survivability rate of 99.7% (three times that of the flu) without a vaccine. And yet they'll adore Gov. Cuomo's response in blaming God and Mother Nature for the people he deliberately infected with the virus in nursing homes knowing full well it would kill them. Well, at least he investigate himself so he didn't obstruct justice! 

Biden/Horrible aren't radical leftists. They have no intentions of carrying out the economic populist vision of Warren and Sanders. Biden/Horrible are flagrant neo-cons assisted by the neo-con establishment. The neo-con establishment doesn't know any bounds when it comes to supporting the mass devastation of the human race. The neo-con principles are Malthusian in philosophy. Humans are the problem and the main threat to the Earth. To preserve the Earth, humans must be exterminated at all costs. Bringing about devastation and destruction in the Middle East was just the first straw for the neo-con establishment. Economic populism isn't the enemy of Western values. Economic populism isn't the enemy of Christianity. The true enemy of Christianity and Traditionalism is the neo-con establishment that infiltrates Christianity and Traditionalism from the inside pretending to be allies. But they are the enemies. Neo-cons are the true enemies of Western values. Biden/Horrible are thoroughly bred in this duplicitous pseudo-conservative movement. They aren't radical leftists. They're dangerous criminals and they must be stopped at all costs.

The Lincoln Project goes up in smoke!

Well those neo-con blokes at The Lincoln Project really went off the rails this week. For those who haven't heard of the so-called Lincoln Project, be grateful. Very grateful. These are a group of so-called "Republicans" who have decided to head the "Republicans against Trump" coalition for 2020. Their main goal is to persuade enough GOP voters to either become so fed up with Trump that they don't vote or to tilt to vote for Biden or third party. The folks over at The Lincoln Project clearly want Biden to win 2020. But they are engaging in very odd and deceitful tactics to do so, and this week, they really hit rock-bottom. Their Twitter feed is more revolting than the President's that they want to eject from the White House!

Not even corn pop ran this many bad dudes.
Not even corn pop ran this many bad dudes!
For starters, these dudes are bad dudes. They're lying scumbags and news media is now starting to do their home work to figure this out. Only one of the founders of the so-called Lincoln Project is actually still a registered Republican to begin with. Secondly, they appear to have no grasp on independent voters and their target audience seems to only be Republicans. I highly doubt the amount of Republicans they are persuading is as big as it would appear. I'm an independent, what have I to do with Bush and McCain and Romney? These are the kind of Republicans they've supported in the past. A war criminal that brought us into Iraq and Afghanistan, a treasonous neo-con who wanted every single nation that wasn't the U.S. bombed to smitherines, and a Wall Street corporate hologram. They must surely know the Democrat grassroots won't want anything to do with them after the "revolution" is completed, right?

But they really went off the deep end this week. Starting with such glorious tweets as the following.
 
But their ultimate self-inflicted wound this week came when they ran their ad against GOP Senator Susan Collins. When their mission is to go after the "most right wing" of the GOP congressman and they're wasting money going after the left-wing Susan Collins, a pro-abortion socialist in favor of expanding big government healthcare, you know we've got some hacks on our hands. It should have been telling when their Twitter feed was taken over by a college graduate with a degree women and gender studies but now the cat's out of the bag!

The advertisement was not just an awful waste of money to spend on a neo-con left-wing GOP senator, it also portrayed an horrible ignorance of history of the twentieth century. Something only a millenial college graduate with a degree in women and gender studies could do any way, certainly not a bunch of neo-cons still trying to masquerade as Republicans when they've already abandoned that party long ago. Though their ad against Susan Collins proves that they're not actually for any Republican reform any more by now. But then they go out and accuse Susan Collins of McCarthyism?!? What exactly is McCarthyism? McCarthyism is a paranoid delusional syndrome named after Senator Joseph McCarthy who accused his political opponents of being spies and agents of...Russia. What is McCarthyism? It's a delusional syndrome where one accuses one's political opponents of being...foreign agents, specifically of...Russia. Sound familiar? Who are the real McCarthyists? Oh, yeah, that would be The Lincoln Project.

The irony is that Susan Collins is not accused of McCarthyism for flat-out defending the innocence of Trump in regards to "collusion with Russia" which we know by now never happened to begin with, she is accused of McCarthyism for maintaining our rule of law in that one is presumed innocent until proven guilty. The ad is a whole lot of bunk, a garbage piece of delusional paranoia, and frankly just a conspiratorial lie. And yet the new American Left has decided that conspiracy theories are the new "norm" and questioning conspiracy theories means they can now re-define the game. But McCarthyism is in the history books and its meaning is well-established. People who know history not only will know that it's a lie and a damned lie to accuse Susan Collins of such, but also, congratulations, The Lincoln Project just wasted money going after a liberal GOP politician that no one is worried about maintaining the seat of any way. Except maybe Susan Collins.

To add insult to injury, there was also a Tweet on Thursday from The Lincoln Project demanding Trump resign. Oh, I thought they cared about getting him out of office democratically. Maybe they realize their organization is being exposed as the joke it is. Or maybe they realize that Trump is going to be re-elected.

2020 vision from the future

It's been almost 40 years after that dreadful and momentous year of 2020 for the counter-revolution. I fear I won't see the new age dawning in but here I write as the counter-revolution begins to fight back against the totalitarian menace that has become of the American Republic as The Woke call it. Yes, there is no more Democrat and Republican Parties fighting each other as used to. It's all about The Woke. If you don't think like them, they throw you in a jail cell. But there was a myriad of faithful who saw past the bullying lies of The Woke. They managed to form an underground movement which has somehow been kept alive and as our children repopulate, we are even on the verge of becoming the majority! The Woke was never bright to begin with. They always insisted on having more abortions and birth control and damn near have driven them out of existence. But now, as we come out from the underground and begin to take over the classrooms again, our lives are increasingly in danger. They have murdered two colleagues of mine from alone and imprisoned my own wife. They have taken my 12 children hostage and have hanged the youngest. But nevertheless, the tides are turning in our favor. The Woke is losing power. They are seeing us come out of hiding for a change to challenge them. And we are taking their young and teaching them the traditions we have always held near and dear.

It started in the year 2020. The Woke had been forming astonishingly right underneath our noses. Most didn't see it and the few who did dare not call it out. But those of who did and saw it coming realized The Woke takeover was inevitable. They originally targeted the Democratic Party of old as their joy-ride to power. But they were never satisfied with the direction. They wanted more out of the party that they never got. We were still run by the neo-con Republican Party but they were swiftly losing all power throughout the entire American Republic. It is no longer the United States. Federalism is a thing long since gone. The Woke have increased the power of the Republic to a centralized state. They came after Confederates, then the Founders, then the Monarchs, then the Saints. The few who avoided their massacre realized they could no longer trust Republicans so we bailed and developed an underground movement to preserve what we knew and pass it down to our young. We gathered in other people's garages for our liturgies, we bought all the books that we possibly could for The Woke soon did a mass book burning, we opened up independent publishing outlets that reprinted the works of ancient. Our movement countered The Woke at every twist and turn.

The year 2020 was welcomed by many as a sign of hope and a sign of cheer. But the Democratic Party was being taken in an increasingly left-wing turn toward the Wokist philosophy of such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar. Many insisted that their ideas would never take power. But I was one of the few who knew much better. I knew the taint that the GOP had. The GOP was the only opposition party to this Woke madness. But the GOP was spineless. Republican statesmen had no desire to slam The Woke for what it was. It was a tiny minority of radicalized, zombified, college-educated brats who had bad relationships with their fathers and walked around like little Hell-demons. But The Woke was getting stronger. Mystifyingly stronger. How could they grasp hold of a once-known centrist like Michael Bloomberg and then Joe Biden and turn them into radical left-wing vampires? No one saw that. Four years prior, a Bernie Sanders Presidency would have been laughable. America wasn't ready for socialism. But now, socialism was at its strongest height in America and we had missed the warning signs. The federalized national bank, the statist healthcare system, social security, affirmative action. The socialist indoctrination of America was already long since in the making. The Woke pushed it to the maximum.

We were only two days into 2020 when the President of the United States (yes, there was once a President, we now only have a legislative branch of government that also enforces and judges laws, made up of over 10,000 politicians elected every six years) ordered the air raid on a very important Iranian official. The world was already panicking about World War III. Nothing could be worse. Then there were locusts sprouting up throughout the Middle East. Some were even ranging a foot in length. The President was already going through a legal battle of his own when an outbreak was crashing toward us from China. First, he downplayed it as a hoax. And many thought it was a hoax too. But then it snuck up into Italy around the beginning of Lent. Many people even suspect the Pope himself may have incidentally and by mistake infected the rest of Italy with it. The Pope had been sick with what seemed to be a flu but never was formally diagnosed with that virus. There was mass hysteria and nationwide panic throughout. People were in such a panicked state that they became willing to do whatever their political leaders told them to do and believe whatever their political leaders told them to believe. The pandemic was a golden opportunity for The Woke to infect us with its virus. It was only a matter of time.

Yes, the viral outbreak of COVID-19 was certainly awful. But no one bothered to actually examine the facts. Well, the few of us in the underground did. We declared it a scamdemic. The World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control, both of which are now disbanded and replaced with The Society to Combat the Virus of Racism, would tell us one thing one day, and another thing the next. They successfully implemented the term "social distancing" into our vocabulary that year and people took the warnings to heart by astounding degree! They decided that Jacques Rousseau, that totalitarian descendant of the menace John Calvin, was correct in his assessment that man only artificially creates social relationships. That man is not a social animal became the norm. This resulted in severed relationships between people throughout the country and the world. The Woke who had once taught severing families as they crossed into our borders illegally was now more than fine if it meant severing ties families for people who had committed no wrongs. The lockdowns wore on as long as the governors pleased and the CDC and WHO would tell us one thing to believe about the virus one day, and a totally different thing the next. What was scary is that despite their flip-flops, people obeyed their stories. Dr. Fauci, who many of us started slurring as Dr. Fauxci, told us it was okay to have a sexual hook-up with someone we just met on Tinder but the handshake had to die. It was sex positivism in opposition to normalcy. Queer began to be "normal" never mind that's the complete opposite of the meaning of the word "queer". People surrendered social control voluntarily. Not a shock as democracy had programmed this into our brain. This would have been unacceptable in any other society.

They told us not to gather in large masses. They told us not to see our friends or loved ones. People lost faith because our church leaders told us that we could only watch the services through the computers. Depression and mental illnesses began rocking our country. 2020 was now the year that people only died of COVID-19. Well, that's what The Woke has insisted. And they continue to insist that the only thing people die from nowadays is COVID-19 too. Unless you were weeded up from the underground. Then they tell you what the actual death cause was. They really expect us to believe this lunacy that the only deadly thing on planet Earth now is COVID-19 and them? They're on hallucinogens and our underground resistance has known this since they started taking over. They hadn't even realized we had existed until just six years ago when the first man brave enough to enter back into worldly society sounded the first battle-cry. That 10,000 seat Parliament has begun to be taken over by force by our counter-revolution and The Woke hasn't even figured it out. But things are starting to get violent again. We've neared Civil War. The first election since the battle cry was sounded resulted in a whopping 3,563 seat gain for our party. We hadn't had any power at all. Very few knew we had even existed. And yet, there we were in Parliament. The tides were sifting.

Perhaps the stamping out came in the late Spring when a man was killed in police custody. Nobody knew the motivation of the officer. Everyone knew the police department in Minneapolis was corrupt. The knee-pin lock was permitted in the Minneapolis police department for years. That's what killed the man. But everyone insisted that because of the skin colors of the men involved, racism must have been the motivation. I hadn't lived through the 1960s, that's for certain but when people compared this to the 1960s, I knew better than to fall for that. The 1960s combated racist policies. These people were starting to compare any one who stood in their way or disagreed in the slightest with their "Wokist" mentality that they were racists. A Christian group that gathered in defense of the icon of St. Louis IX was labeled as a group of white nationalists and Trump-supporters and people took that as face value. It was clearly a battle over morality and the Republicans had lost before it even started. They had never been able to levy the charge of murder at their pro-abortion opponents in Congress. Nor were they able to call the policies of their colleagues on the other side sexual perverts for their love of LGBTQ and every letter after insanity. They promoted birth control, and only cared about the drug war. No one explained what policies that existed though were racist but because that was generally accepted as immoral, no one dared challenge. Except us. And we remained thriving.

There were riots every where, statues came down, and when you called them a riot or asserted that BLM truly stood for "Burn, Loot, Murder" (which indeed, the terrorist group formally known as Black Lives Matter did change their name to!), you were pummeled and bullied by the mob. It ran rampant because no one stood up to it. But we also knew it would take a while to challenge formally. We knew we needed to strengthen our own group and so we did. We provided dissent, challenged the COVID-19 lockdown policies, rose up and defended. We knew the Presidential candidates were bad. On one side a demented neo-con taking advice from other neo-cons, and on the other side nothing more than a puppet for a Party that wouldn't even let him become President! The election was...

Here, the letter cuts off with a drop of blood covering the last thought. The counter-revolutionaries were able to preserve what was left of the letter and reproduce what was written here until that point here. The underground was able to preserve almost the entirety of the cultural tradition that The Woke had sought to destroy. The Woke were astounded by this. Eventually, the warring factions became so intense and The Woke had sought to seek dominance within itself so long, that The Woke eventually lost the Great War of 2063 in a span of less than two weeks. The former counter-revolutionaries have been in power ever since. Churches gather in mass, faith has never been stronger, we have reclaimed the universities as sources for intellectual progress. The American Republic has long since vanished. The American Monarchy flourishes.

Why Trump will lose in 2020...

Trump is headed toward defeat in 2020. Some of his followers and faithful voters can't see this quite clearly but he is. Trump is headed toward defeat. The thing is, Trump isn't the perfect demi-god or God-Emperor his most faithful supporters want him to be or think of him as. He's got a lot of issues. He has severe emotional problems, that's for certain. He tweets way too much for someone who's supposed to be leading a country 24/7. He has also done incredibly poor at uniting people together. Instead, he divides people. I'm not talking about the ungrateful Vandals who will never be satiated by anything he says or does. What I mean by "he divides people" is that he caves to the wrong policies and shows people what a complicit coward looks like. By doing this, he divides people. People are deceived into thinking unity means we concur with bad policy. More bad policy is brought in and left unchecked and the people in the country who wish to dissent from that bad policy are the ones marked as anathema the nationalist sentiments of the duped.

I write about religion on this blog. I write about politics on this blog. I write about my own faith and experience on this blog. I let people know my views are unpopular opinions on politics and religion. That's because they are. I don't go out and deliberately score brownie points for Republicans or Democrats. If any one reads through, you know which side I stand on. I foster strong anti-republican sentiment. I foster strong pro-monarchist sentiment. I write this blog in order to provide a dissenting opinion. This blog is meant to exist for dissenters. This blog is meant to exist, and hopefully flourish even, so that people know it's more than okay to dissent. And they can dissent publicly if they wish. That's what this blog is for. I do that frequently. I do not shy away from making extremist rhetoric either. It's fact-based extremist rhetoric but it certainly is extremist rhetoric. When we run out of dissenters in this nation, we lose valuable alternative opinions and people think that the dissenters are "backwards" and need to be stomped out because they are casting doubt on the system. This is because the dissenters create in these people a fear that they cannot and do not possess unlimited power. A fear that there is something much greater than them. Dissenters are who have power in a country. As Voltaire once said, "It is lamentable, that to be a good patriot, one must become the enemy of the rest of mankind".

And so I make this grave prediction about Trump. It is a dissenting position from those who form the core of his base and think everything he does is perfect. He will not be re-elected to the Presidency. There is no way that the direction he continues going in will lead him to be re-elected. People are seeing that he is in no condition to be able to lead a country from the cusp of darkness. Vigano's letter to President Trump may allow him to retain some of the more faithful Catholic voters out there but it won't be enough. Our country, even with four years of Trump, has increasingly been descending toward the wrong direction in the culture wars. We are seeing the final culmination of this as the current political cycle comes to a most rapid conclusion. (These things don't last! For any triumphant secularist who thinks they've won and done Christianity in for good this time, look at what happened to the Roman Empire and look at what happened to the U.S.S.R.! These are cycles, nothing permanent.) The American people are faithless and have continued to put trust in false deities. So much so that nothing is about issues any more. It's about who can be the most socially regressive, gayest fool, procure the most abortions and brag about what a slut you can be while murdering your own child. That's what it's about now. Trump is seen as the embodiment of everything that stands in the way of their libertine life-styles and as America becomes more and more faithless, they can't get him or the things they loathe out of their minds.

No. Trump won't win. And when Trump loses, the fake news media outlets will quickly swarm to spotlighting how it was his emotional instability that brought him down. It was all his Tweeting that brought him down. It was all of his trivial arguments that he had with such politicians. It was his suggestion that a pro-abortion husband of a Democratic congresswoman might be in Hell that ended his Presidency. And they'll be completely wrong about the things that ended his Presidency as they were about the things that got him elected. He didn't get elected because he was a racist. He didn't get elected because white supremacists favored him. He didn't get elected because a bunch of people decided rape was okay. If it was those things that got him elected, how did we end up with four years of Bush? How did we end up with four years of Obama? How is it that Biden could beat him? The fake news media will never be able to see things clearly because these people are liars. They lie and the Devil is their father because he is the father of lies. And a murderer who has walked on his belly from his very first sin. Nothing more.

No. It won't be his Tweeting that ends his re-election bid. It won't be his trivial arguments or his bullying tactics. It won't be his emotional stability or his demagoguery. Suffice to say, as Murray N. Rothbard already noted before, elections are simply no longer about party platforms, they are personality tests to show who has a better personality. People are already convinced of Trump one way or the other. Either they love his personality, or they like his policies so they'll choose to ignore his obvious personality faults. That's just the bottom line. As long as we run common folk in elections against each other, we get demagogues. We could end democracy by only allowing certain classes of folk to run for office but what would be the point then? Trump will not lose because of any of these reasons. And he won't even lose because his policies are unpopular. He will lose for a key reason that almost no one will see coming.

Trump will lose because he betrayed his followers. Trump will lose because his opponent predicted four years ago that he would sink in the swamp and sink in the swamp he has. Trump will lose because instead of keeping the government shutdown for an even longer period, he went ahead and signed the Democrats' spending bills and expanded the powers of the government. Trump will lose because he sat on his hands while his base protested the corona virus lockdowns and did nothing to protect their constitutional rights. Trump will lose because he paid lip service to churches and didn't actively seek legal retributions against the unconstitutional COVID-19 lockdown policies initiated by rogue governors across the nation. Trump will lose because he kept caving to the Democratic pressure and neglected to receive his funding for the wall. Trump will lose because he imported more cheap labor into the nation during a time in which we were going through a recession. Trump will lose because he continues to do nothing about the Vandals. Trump will lose because he fiddles while riots go on. Has he ever designated Anti-Fa or BLM a terrorist organization or just talked about it? He will lose because he continues to torch his base. He will lose because he celebrated the SCOTUS decision that changed the definition of basic human biology. He will lose because he spent more time trying to appease the horde of Vandals whose demonic lusts can never be satiated and he swept his own base aside. He will lose and he may just deserve to lose re-election.

Conservatism is not the GOP!

Philosopher Hans-Hermann Hoppe describes conservatism as the "want to preserve the family and the social hierarchies and layers of material as well as spiritual-intellectual authority based on and growing out of family bonds and kinship relations" (Democracy: The God That Failed, 188). It was during "the transformation of the U.S. and Europe into mass democracies from World War I" that "conservatism...transformed fro an antiegalitarian, aristocratic, antistatist ideological force into a movement of culturally conservative statists" (189-190). While conservatism is correct to focus against the moral degeneration and cultural rot of society, modern day conservatism has found itself in a politically partisan movement that has hijacked it and utilized conservatism in an effort to destroy it from within.

So it is no surprise in modern discourse of competing ideologies when one runs across a person they know to be conservative to assume their political appreciations. Especially in America where the GOP is insisted as being the chief conservative party. Well with the Democrats embracing head-on the cultural rot of society as they openly seek to kill the unborn, pretend that men are women and women are men, and insist that gay marriage is a sacrament, it's no wonder why so many conservatives in America vote for the GOP. But the GOP really hates its own constituents even more than the U.K. Tories! The Tories at least do a better job pretending to be subservient to the English monarchy and the Church of England but the GOP actively despises its constituents. GOP politicians will weep and mourn when Democrats accuse them of things such as "racism!" and "homophobia!" and being "anti-women" and they attempt to apologize for their behavior and correct themselves hoping to win over constituents. Yet the charges still come. But that is not what a conservative party or an ideologically conservative movement looks like. That is what a political party attempting to win over voters looks like.

I used to mock this idea very recently that the GOP had anything to do with conservatism by pinning a bumper magnet to the back of my car saying "My Cat is a Republican!" People gave me wonderful feedback about it until I explained to them, he is a Republican! He is a rampaging neo-con and wants to bomb Manitoba, Switzerland and I have to tell him that place doesn't exist. Crazy Church Lady even asked me if my cat was a Satanist, how then did he become a Republican? My answer was the individualist mentality that GOP leaders maintain, especially when it comes towards big business. I told my godfather how the cat has recently changed parties. He is now a "Democat" (that's kitten for Democrat). My godfather hates the current two-party system we have. On the one side, you have the Democrats who Crazy Church Lady will ask of, "Can Democrats be saved?" and on the other side, the GOP which is mostly infatuated with their neo-con warfare state.

Going back to Hoppe, who argues for the antistatist position of conservatism, "most contemporary conservatives...either do not recognize that their goal of restoring normalcy requires the most drastic, even revolutionary, antistatist social changes, or (if they know about this) they are members of the "fifth column" engaged in destroying conservatism from the inside (and hence, must be regarded as evil)" (190). It is no surprise to find then that Hans-Hermann Hoppe supports and defends secessionist movements. Let me be clear, violent revolutionaries are morally reprehensible. Peaceful secessionist movements though, are non-violent revolutions that should be supported. So Hoppe defends the Confederates' secession. The problem is that their way to fight back the government that ended up attacking them was they tried to fight in orthodox military format. So their defeat to the Union was inevitable.

The modern statist movement of the 20th century has forced conservatism into a highly rampant decline. That is not the fault of conservatism. That is the fault of democracy. Democracy has held captive the entirety of western civilization for over 100 years. It has led to the Great Wars of the 20th century, it has led to deaths, abuses of power, military force. Murray N. Rothbard talks about the 20th century as this, "Who would want to repeal the twentieth century, the century of horror, the century of collectivism, the century of mass destruction and genocide, who would want to repeal that! Well, we propose to do just that." (The Irrepressible Rothbard, 20).

Rothbard lays out the "8 points of conservatism". Slash taxes, slash welfare, abolish racial or group privileges (affirmative action), take back the streets and crush criminals, abolish the Fed and attack the banksters, America first, and defend family values (40-41). Let's face it, if they think it helps them win constituents, the GOP will never do any of that. They would fall on their swords for their top donors before they scolded the banks for ripping people off. They would prefer to collect money from the vulture capitalists because the state will leave them richer. Fall on their swords to defend crony capitalist companies in China and then make a mockery of libertarian economics by insisting that not doing so is to defend capitalism. They are sell-outs to bug business and corporate industries. They will do the bidding of the state first and foremost. Their interest is in expanding state power, first and foremost. The GOP has an agenda to destroy conservatism from the inside out. They care nothing for religious values. They care nothing for family values. They don't mind abortion, just ask Kim Reynolds.

But they're also the party flying the conservative plane right now. What must conservatives do right now to reassess the situation? Clearly the Democrats hate us. We can't go and walk over toward them. But should we perhaps put up with Democratic rulership for a while until we can radically reform the GOP? That's one possibility. Or secession is another option. Rod Dreher details one of the most thorough strategies for a Christianity facing this crisis. The solution may mean that we withdraw ourselves from society. Not from acting in it but rather isolate ourselves from the rest of the world that we live in as we make the necessary reforms from underneath and build upward. He details this in The Benedict Option. He does not insist we should be a-political but rather political in a much different meaning of the word. Being political in the sense that we are changing the culture from the ground up. He leads us away from our prostatist mentality into a mentality that acknowledges that the state is the enemy of our values. Only doing this can we first begin to reform society.

The GOP is infatuated with the state. They are not for the conservatives. I can disagree with any and every Republican politician I choose. It does not take away my membership in the conservative movement. That's because the GOP doesn't care about conservatism. It cares about the state. Nikki Haley said she'd leave the Confederate flag up when she became the Governor of South Carolina. Then she took it down. Then she used her power as U.N. Ambassador to fuel a war with Bashar Al-Assad, spreading fictional lies about his regime as she sought to do what every single GOP leader did. We don't want leaders like that in society. And she's not the first morally reprehensible figure like that either. The GOP rejects conservatives. What will conservatives do to stop it?

I am endorsing Donald Trump as well

Let me be clear. I prefer Jorgensen's positions on police reform. I'd rather not America be turned into a police state. I would rather drop prosecutions of non-violent crimes and victimless crimes. Drop prosecutions of drug dealing and end this asinine "war on drugs" started by these lunatic neo-cons. I am not saying that I will be voting for Trump. I am only giving an endorsement to a candidate. That is much different. I still will more than likely vote on the party lines. That said, there are important issues at stake and because Trump has stood for many of these important issues as has been proven by the first four years of his Presidency, it would be a shame to see them erased by a Democratic administration. Especially one that has failed to condemn the current rioting going on.

I don't have many people who follow me on social media so my voice on this is rather useless either way. Though most of my followers on Twitter are Trump supporters or Traditionalist Catholics or both at the same time. So it is more politically expedient of me to go out and vote for Trump. I am still sticking with the party. That said, there is a very legitimate concern I have if power is rendered to a Democratic administration. Especially when Biden's Vice Presidential pick is revealed. If it's Stacey Abrams, we'll likely end up with a delusional race-baiting lunatic who thinks she defeated Brian Kemp in the Georgia gubernatorial race in 2018. Then how can Trump's chief critics possibly argue that his obvious narcissism and distorted immature comments disqualify him from the Presidency? Especially since Biden is clearly in no shape to run a country.

Currently, the majority of American citizens are favoring the usage of military force to get these barbarians to scram. There's a good reason for this. It's not because these Americans are "neo-Nazi" white supremacists. Quite the opposite. Most Americans are also in support of the protests. Most Americans have also denounced the killing of George Floyd. So to condemn these Americans as racist would be to zone out the key issue. The key issue is the rioting. That is what Americans are condemning. That is why the regressive media keeps insisting that "the protests are peaceful!" It's because they realize that the polling is favoring Trump's demands for the use of force to quell the looting, the pillaging, the sacking of American businesses, the Vandals that have jumped in with these rioters.

The Polk County Sheriff even gave a strong warning to looters and barbarians. His warning was that the people here in Polk County have guns and they will use them if you attempt to loot. The Libertarian Party has a principle of non-aggression that is frequently misunderstood to mean that aggression can never be used. The principle does not mean that aggression cannot be used to defend lives or private property (or even public property for that matter). A Democratic administration that has already vowed to take away guns would leave countless more Americans defenseless. Even further, if the cops are the problem to begin with, why the hell would any one want the police to be the ones with the guns? As Austin Petersen once pointed out, we live in a world in which being a liberal means that the only way to end gun violence is by surrendering your guns to a government that you call racist. That is called cognitive dissonance disorder.

Let's face it, an incoming Democratic administration at this point would be the end of civilization. It would be the approval of rioting and barbarianism. It would be the beginning of a state religion of the demonization of entire race of people. It would be a myriad of steps backwards away from the progress that American society has been built upon. It would mean the sparking of more racial divisions as white people are lectured as to how their skin color gives them some sort of advantage and now they must atone for sins they didn't even commit. It would be racially divisive, even more so than right now. We already saw the seeds of racial discord planted by Obama when it came to the Zimmerman case. Biden is simply more of Obama's racially fueled rhetoric. Trump says dumb things on Twitter, big whoop. Has he ever insisted at any point in his Presidency that if someone takes the side of a non-white person in a criminal case, they are guilty of racism? Obama threatened people with charges of racism if they took Zimmerman's side-and Zimmerman was Hispanic.
