Of course the proclamation that Christianity’s most holy day had been replaced by National Day of Visibility for the Mentally Ill and/or Perverted was intended to offend. Understand that communism is really a manifestation of hatred for others – the others being us – and that part of the fun is exercising power over the normals. They intend to insult us, then they gaslight that it was just a coincidence. But everyone – us and them – know that it is, in fact, a disgusting and disgraceful blasphemy designed to disrespect us.
The real problem is that we notice. Why are you Jesus people so triggered? This comes from people who scream like little girls when you point out that they are not actually little girls.
But do not get wrapped up in the right or wrong of it, at least when dealing with the communists. There is no right or wrong for them; there is only what is required right now, this minute, to solidify or increase their power. You cannot reason with them and you will not talk them out of anything. Their rejection of reason and facts and objective truth is really their greatest advantage. It puts normal people on the defensive because normal people’s tools are utterly ineffective since those tools include debate and argument and analysis.
Understand that it is about power. But it’s not the optimal type of power, not usually and not yet. The optimal power is a gun, and while they do have federal law enforcement, there are still barriers to their full exercise of the kind of power to imprison and murder their opponents, like their heroes in Stalin’s Russia or China or the fake nation of Palestine or Cuba or wherever. They can’t just kill you, not en masse, not yet, though make no mistake – that is where they want to end up. And this is why you need to buy guns and ammunition to have in reserve to lawfully defend your freedom against open tyranny.
But that’s a long way away. We are going to beat these creeps on their own terms. What is happening now is more subtle. Their real power today is solely to manipulate you. They exercise power by making you act as they wish. This means you can only be ruled by them if you are, voluntarily or involuntarily, complicit.
Don’t be complicit.
The first step is to understand the enemy. Understand the nature of their power. The fat mutant womyn shrieking on the streets, the chestless femboys throwing paint on paintings, the credentialed cretins in the regime media – they cannot make you do anything. They can only convince you to do their will. They are nothing unless you give in, unless you buy into their premises and accept their paradigm.
Don’t.
Let’s look at the Easter blasphemy. They get an erotic thrill from insulting you, sure. Remember, communism is largely driven by the stunted, immature emotional chaos of its practitioners. It’s a daddy issue writ large as an ideology. That’s communism’s weakness – it overreaches because its adherents do not have the mental strength or discipline to forgo the giddy thrill of showing their contempt for you before they have fully locked-in their power. We can still resist, and their short-term jollies will inspire normals to do so. Biden and the rest just could not pass up a chance to get in your face and compare their weirdos buddies with our Savior. As a bonus, if we do nothing and accept it, we are trained in submission. Their next atrocity will be even worse. Eventually, we will be serfs.
So don’t give in.
Our reaction determines how this goes. Do we freak out? No, we point out the insult not to reaffirm to each other the badness of our enemies – we are based and already know how bad our enemies are – but to awaken those who are not yet based. Remember, there is a default to normality on the part of normal people. They assume the system is working, that people are operating in good faith, and that everyone functions on the basis of objective truth. The communists exploit this default assumption of normality, knowing that normals will assume that the communists’ actions cannot be as crazy or evil as they seem. But they are as crazy or evil as they seem.
That’s why incidents like the Trans Day of Nonsense are useful to us to help us break through the normals’ benefit of the doubt for the communists. There are red lines that normals will not cross, and when the communists do push over them – because they cannot help themselves – there is pushback. Look at the military – normals won’t join. Look at the school boards – normal people are firing them. The country is falling apart, and Donald Trump is ahead despite being framed and outspent. That’s pushback. The potential to fight back exists. And cultural abominations like this proclamation are powerful tools for us to radicalize the normals and let them see the truth they would prefer to ignore.
Their ruling class hates them, and it must be destroyed.
That’s why everything we do must persuade the normals to get off the sidelines. Don’t argue with communists – you cannot change them and it is a waste of effort to try. You are not going to convince them. You need to defeat them, and the way to do that is through the ruthless exercise of power. You get power by winning over the normals. If you address the communists at all, it must be purely performative, a show to demonstrate to the normals how contemptible the communists are. So, on Twitter, if you diss some pinko, it’s not for the joy of dissing a pinko (though it is a joy). It is to show the normals the truth and bring them to your side.
The communists are vulnerable to our power, ruthlessly exercised. Look at Ron DeSantis in Florida, scoring win after win, using his power without apology. Trump needs to do that when he wins – and he is promising to. The enemy will then try to do what it always does – leverage our values against us to get us to act as it wishes. They will seek to call us “authoritarians” who “hate democracy” whenever we exercise our power. Laugh at them. Suggest they cry more.
They can’t stop us; they can only try convince us to stop ourselves.
