What Kind of "Popular Revolution" Is This?!

I have a lot of respect for the Saker’s commentaries in general and concur with his view of this situation. It is almost treason for authorities to look the other way while thugs actually are given de facto control of a territory within a major city. While the yankee cops have literally been getting away with murder for a long time, the protests are obviously being manipulated, and stability is under threat. If the official authority allows this to take place, it is understandable that vigilante types will step in. I notice that the vigilante in New Mexico had a Spanish name and that, therefore, he is himself a member of a minority. These are troubled times and instability and major unrest will be the likely results.

“ most Republicans will never accept a Biden presidency”.
The Democrats don’t have to care if Republicans accept a Biden presidency. It’s all about the will to exercise power. Democrats have it, Republicans don’t.
You could have said on September 1, 1939 that most Poles will never accept the Wehrmacht. How did that make any difference?

You do understand that the Spanish (Spaniards) are White Europeans? And that there are millions of White Spanish Ancestry Hispanics living in Latin America and Europe? Spanish last name does not mean a brown skin mestizo. As my ancestors first arrived on the shores of Florida and subjugated thr indians, as they continue to rule virtually all Latin American countries and Spain, they form a key partner in the wars to come as allies with Anglo-Americans and German-Americans. Unlike the the German/Saxon descendants of Luther/Hegel/Kant’s kin, silly german idealism didn’t and has not infected the majority of White Hispanics of European Ancestry. We have a strong Catholic tradition rooted in real politik, not virtue signaling for Protestant brownie points. We survived 700 years of Islam and defeated the Arabs while maintaining the last true bastion for true European peak culture, unlike the Northern Europeans.

This is especially true considering that most Democrats will never accept a Trump reelection while most Republicans will never accept a Biden presidency.

It’s a fact, that this level of polarization is very dangerous in a country.

And I agree about the risk of society splitting apart. For example, Spain 1936 (just prior to the Civil War) also had a weak and ineffective government turning a blind eye to hard leftist violence (assaults on property, church burnings etc. ) with the same fear of Bolshevik activists and the radical leftist press.

Traditional conservative society eventually reacts in any way that will bring it protection and safety.

If the Dems and ‘Deep State’ are using this unrest (and the overblown Wuhan flu) to engineer an ouster, they are making a big big mistake. Apparently they haven’t read William Lind on 4th generation military conflict. The main aim of insurgents is to delegitimize the state.

That’s exactly what these riots and the buffoonery surrounding the lockdown are accomplishing – showing people that they are ruled by self-serving, low intelligence hypocrites willing to take away the rights of the average person through measures that they have no intention of respecting themselves. Showing that the police are unwilling to respect the most basic fundamental duty of the state, to prevent citizens from being harmed.

Even the Dems couldn’t be so stupid as to think that there are no ramifications from this sort of a plan. Hence, I suspect that there is a faction that actually wants a 4th gen conflict to emerge in the USA.

Its all economic angst just like Spain and Weimar Germany. Inflation is a deadly beast. The Federal reserve has been printing full tilt since 2008. Sure, the US does not have headline CPI inflation. But Weimar Germany didn’t either for years. 1923 was only the blowoff. The previous 9 years, Germany had no idea what inflation monsters were in the closet.

See this good Twitter thread about Weimar Germany. The comparison is solid.

Saker nails exactly what these riots and protests are all about: ousting Trump. Of course, I dare not say this out loud to too many of my friends because this will imply I’m a member of one of the apparently numerous and highly populated American Neo-Nazi organizations. Evidence for the all-about-ousting-Trump hypothesis will emerge within a few months after the 2020 election. If Schmo Biden wins, you’ll see business as usual just as it was conducted during Obama’s reign. The media will seek to minimize controversy for a Democrat president and will cease giving air time to BLM, Antifa, and company, thence starving them of the critical mass anger required for any substantive changes in policing, economic opportunities for supposedly disadvantaged blacks, and so forth. The only difference from Trump will be social justice posturing and occasional legislation designed to fail and blame on Republicans in preparation for 2024.

Interesting that in the picture of the virtue signaling egalitarians at the top of the page that only the men are kneeling. Why not the women? I’m so confused. 

Own comment: 

You will encounter many leftists who rail against Christianity, the oil industry, the family and whatever is in the news.

If any of them took 5 minutes to think instead of yell they would realise that none of the positions they take are actually in opposition to the powers-that-shoudln't-be and that all of them are actually positions championed by both government and media. So in short, what we have in your general leftist is a conformist who is stupid enought to think that she is a rebel.

That has never been more true than with the whole Goerge Floyd protest riot Black Lives Matter controlled chaos revoution nonsense.
