Victor Davis Hanson: "This will be the end of us"

 

This may be the most important video you'll watch in weeks, possibly months.  It's only 8½ minutes long, but it encapsulates the disastrous situation in which our country now finds itself.  I can't emphasize too strongly that you should not only watch this yourself, but circulate the link to your family and friends, because this is what's coming unless we turn our country around in very short order.




The following article, also by Mr. Hanson, isn't a transcript of the video above, but touches on some of the same points.  I highly recommend that you click over to it and read the whole thing.


Why are those controlling President Biden using him to advance so much of a destructive agenda that it will likely end America as we know it? If someone wished to destroy America, could he do anything more catastrophic than what we currently see and hear each day? What would an existential enemy do that we have not already done to ourselves?

1. Wipe out a 2,000-mile border. Allow 10 million foreign nationals to enter unlawfully. Have no audit of any; nullify all federal immigration laws. Let in toxic drugs that kill 100,000 Americans a year. Give free support to those millions who broke the law. Smear any objectors as racists and xenophobes.

2. Run up $35 trillion in national debt. Keep adding $1 trillion to it each 100 days. Defame anyone wishing to cut wild spending as cruel and inhumane.

3. Appease or subsidize enemies like Iran and China. Demonize allies like Israel. Allow terrorists to attack Americans without adequate response. See Islam as either similar or superior to Christianity. Make amends to leftist governments for supposedly past toxic American international behavior. Follow the lead of international agencies like the U.N., ICC and WHO to atone for past American neocolonial and imperialist behavior. Recede to second-tier international status, befitting American decline.

4. In a multiracial democracy, redefine identity only as one’s tribal affiliation. Ensure each identity group rivals the other for victimhood and the state spoils it confers. Reboot all political issues by race and sex oppressors and oppressed. Destroy all meritocratic standards of admission, retention, promotion and commendation.

5. Recalibrate violent crime as understandable, cry-of-the-heart expressions of social justice. Ensure no bail and same-day release for arrested, repeat violent felons. Empathize with the violent killer and rapist; ignore their victims, especially if they are slain police officers.


There's much more at the link.  Essential reading, IMHO.

Folks, we need to listen to Mr. Hanson's warnings, and pay attention to what's going on in our country, and do something before it's too late.  Even if we can't affect things on a national scale, we stand a better chance of doing so in our states, and an excellent chance in our local towns and counties.  However, if we do nothing, that tide of nihilism will wash over us, and history will say that we committed suicide by cooperating with those who set out to destroy us.

I hope my readers are listening - and willing to act, each of us as best we can in our own lives and circumstances.  In particular, we should be prepared to defend our lives, our loved ones, and our property in the face of a burgeoning crime rate committed by "migrant" aliens.  (As per our previous post this morning, ignore those who claim that aliens aren't contributing to crime, or that crime rates are actually going down.  They're lying.  Read the first link in this paragraph for the facts.)  Secure your premises, get armed and trained in the tools you need to defend yourself, and stand ready to assist police and others who are fighting against the criminal tide.

Unfortunately it's like standing in front of a tidal wave that you know is gonna kill you so all you can do is stand there and say "why doesn't somebody do something".
The police are corrupt and will follow whomever is in power.
The.military is completely woke and I believe would.turn it's guns on the lawbiding patriots if the higher ups gave the command..
There is no law. There is no justice and there is no mercy.
Hanson is right. The veneer has bneen stripped off of humanity and what we are without God, is just another brutal feral animal.
God help us all.

Do something before it's too late? That shipped sailed a long time ago.

Do something before it's too late? Like having Republicans control Senate, House and White House, yet things get worse instead of better.

So many different things being driven by the same people who hate cisgendered white middle class Christians. A farmer takes care of his livestock, but our overlords are actively working against us and hate us. Evil knows no limit, but is always greedy for more. They must milk us dry and ruin us to show their power and feed their greed.

Who is they? The Cabal is a pretty generic term and is as good as any. They are in control of all legitimate authority, certainly at the federal level.

What's to be done? Prepare, prepare for the wheels coming off.

@June J: It's not a Republican or Democrat problem: it's having too many weasels, low-lifes and crooks in the House and the Senate. If we could elect better quality candidates, irrespective of their party, I think things would improve . . . but I agree, there's small chance of that these days.

"Jay Sicks" ...was a wasted opportunity... I'll leave it at that...

I'd argue this is preaching to the converted.

Carteach said...

I think that boulder on the cliff is already past the tipping point, with Congress greasing the path in front of it.

Nothing left but to get our families out of the way as best we can.

How is Israel an ally?

The problem is, we got ourselves in this mess willingly. I do not see many options to get ourselves out of the mess without violence and bloodshed.

Because we give them billions and get…well we give them billions for reasons.

Pretty much the only thing that comes to mind is the quote from B5's Ambassador Kosh: "The avalanche has begun, it is too late for the pebbles to vote"

Typical conservative gaslighting. This is Obama’s America, that guy ain’t Biden. Trump is a classic liberal. There is no voting your way out- have y’all learned nothing about “voting”? For crying out loud…it all sounds like Hannity now. Accept it ain’t getting fixed by man. This is judgment. Praise Jesus, it’s nearing the finish line.

Dan said...

The warnings are probably too little too late. I think America is past the point of return. Salvaging what was can no longer happen because too much has been destroyed. All rational people can now do is try to prepare for the coming storm as best they can so they can survive it. There's not much else the 'little guy' can do now.

You need to rename this article "The Final Eulogy of FUSA" because that is all it is.

That ship did indeed sail a long time ago, and tough times and a lot of hard decisions are in store for us all, no matter what. About all that’s left is stop making things worse, but apparently that’s too much to ask too.

I also don’t understand why people like VDH and many others seem to think putting the current crop of republicans in is going to fix anything. Many of them have been pushing war with Iran for decades.

I don’t understand why so many right wingers seem to lose all rationality when it comes to Israel. They’ve wised up about sending infinity money to Ukraine, but insist we must send Israel whatever they want. It’s nonsense. About the only good argument for it is that if Israel is overrun, they’ll glass every city within range of their missiles.

I just wish somebody would tell us something we don’t know.

I think the cry for those who end up in the camps will be the same as the ones who end up in the gulags... We didn't love freedom enough... I have been telling people for years and years to Tribe Up, Build Community, etc etc and yet most are still too comfortable to make any sort of sacrifice for freedom...

Tribe Up or Die...
