Did you ever wonder what it would be like to live under communism? Well, now you know. The last two years have seen a parade of dumb and dumber policies, the kind you expect in totalitarian dictatorships. The distinguishing traits are as follows: rulers show contempt for their serfs; policy wonks concoct endless stream of counterproductive ideas; and casual cruelty hurts everyone, day after day. Here are a dozen examples.

It is 1935 all over again but this time right here in good old America. Several of my schoolteachers in the Lake County, Illinois schools including our high school principal were veterans from WWII. They constantly warned us students about what would soon happen to America unless we stood up in defiance.

Take it from those of us who have lived under communism (when they actually called themselves "communists"). You ARE living under communism right now...even though they now call themselves "Democrats." Don't think so? Mandates. Lockdowns. Redistribution of your income. Government controlled media. False imprisonments (J6) and show trials. Fake elections where they count the votes and keep counting until they win. Shortages of previously abundant goods. Speech controls. Subjugation of religion. Sound familiar, comrade?

We might have communism now, but it's run by fraud clowns real hard-core communist go one step further they kill/murder their opposition. Fraud Biden is not there 'yet', or could he be there is something that stops the communist, our second Amendment it's fear that keeps the left at bay. Fraud Biden doesn't care about the Constitution but there are checks there that make us correct to oppose this fraud regime.

#1 - Great list. I'd add one more - corruption of the education system. Isn't Critical Thinking and Writing taught anymore in schools? Or a love of truth? Had a service man come to my home other day and we talked about mid-terms and he said that just because Fetterman had a debilitating stroke, it does not mean his thought processes are effected, and just because Dr. Oz is a cardiovascular surgeon. it does not mean that he is smart! Oh, well. I guess we can always focus on what is going on in the Kardashian family if we want something to talk about at dinner.

Fake government A government that doesn't really govern. A two party system that isn't really two parties. One party rules instead of governs. The other party defers to the first party when they should be putting out an alternative. A government that is 30 trillion in debt and a country that is 90 trillion in debt. A government that steals elections and has legalized voter fraud. A government-controlled media that controls what people see. A dumbed down populace that does not know what is important. A populace that elected a senile corrupt incompetent politician as President and supports the status quo. A populace that does not vote their pocketbook because they either don't have one or are not feeling the pinch. A populace that survives on government handouts even though that government is essentially bankrupt. A population looking for bread and circuses. A population that turns on law enforcement because they have become accustomed to crime. A population that has a high criminal element and can be bought off. Don't really care what it's called. It's not working.

Americans showed their stripes in the aftermath of 9/11 when they couldn't trade liberty for security fast enough, creating the two headed monster that essentially combined intelligence and law enforcement communities - accepting the idea that the special courts would "protect" citizens from abuse while chasing down the bad guys. In 1992 Americans chose for their President a grifter and his wife. They changed American politics and set the stage for a rapacious UNIPARTY government that saw the profitability of government at the expense of the public while creating Potemkin prosperity for all. Good times that now bring us to crooked falderol like Ukraine money laudering and crypto bank collapses, not to mention open borders, "wokeism" in public institutions, and a series of falderol now accepted as "normal" by the public. The coup d'grace was COVID, brought to us by "unknown" means, but which enabled government from top to bottom to redirect our lives with hardly a whimper. PDT and Congress appropriated $14 TRILLION, adding 50 percent to our burgeoning national debt to maintain "normalcy", giving shtuff away to create the illusion that prosperity would maintain itself through the crisis that never ended. To top it off come the silver bullets of vaccines that didn't work very well, even killed people, and have long-term effects that are unknown to the public. Now we have gross inflation, which some prefer to blame entirely on incompetent Biden. We are today a people of "brave" scardycats. Where once we were told all we had to fear was fear itself, today we are in the midst of a never ending torrent of fear porn driven by "experts" and "concerned" TV personalities. We are too shallow and weak to bother to peek behind the curtains. We are divided in the face of what should be mutually angering as free people.

Communism and/or Facism, Americans have a very poor understanding of each of these ideaologies. In addition nearly all Americans are under the mistaken belief that this is a capitalist economy. Nothing could be further from the truth and this lie has been going on since FDR. It’s a combination of very poor education that is tightly controlled and the weaponization of the media which is again anything but free and truthful.

Forgive second post, but this subject is so serious and so timely and I don't want to attribute words to the wrong person because they are life-saving. I think I heard them from the young man who reports so accurately about the situation on our southern border on Real America Voice News, but he said our order of concern should be:- First, God, Then Family, and Then Country, and then we will survive (or a combination of the three -my words)

What sets us apart is that we have the right to bear arms. But our communists are doing everything they can to abolish that, one way or another. In every other way, we are living under communist rule, to one degree or another. The single most discouraging attribute of totalitarian rule we now suffer is the fake elections. Without the ability to choose our government, we are completely lost, they can do anything they want to us and we have no recourse.

The presence or absence of communism as a form of government in the U. S. is strictly on us, We the People. Forget the so-called Uniparty and RINOs as a cause or Trump as the sole savior. If modern day Americans aren't willing to fight savagely, not just politically or rhetorically, then we may fall under Iron Curtain II. Communism as a force, has never been pushed back or defeated without barrels of blood being shed. Communist movements, often cloaked as hyper populist (e.g., The Peoples Republic or Democrat Republic of Name-Your-Lost-Country) do not ever reflect the popular will, nor to they respect debate or compromise but they do respect certain death.

This article is outstanding in its listing of many items we faced and allowed to happen without calling it out. The decay is getting worse, and the lack of a a 'wave' election AGAINST the corruption only makes things seem more dire, and WTP get sold out to forces who are helbent on taking U.S. over and subjugating us from exceptionalism to conformity. There were several other factors that Mr. Price could have mentioned as contributing factors to our decline, but the ones mentioned are bad enough.

I’ve lived under communism. Believe me, we are not nearly there yet. When we are, there will not be a few empty shelves in the supermarket; the entire building will be empty. There will not be high gas prices; there will be no gas or you will sit in a gas line for 2 days to get the amount which has been rationed to you. (If you still are allowed to own a car.). There will not be high heating fuel prices; you will sit in your home and freeze because the heating fuel has been given to the elites or sold to China. (In our apartment in Bucharest in 1983, it was warmer inside the refrigerator than it was in the apartment.) You will not want to get anywhere near a hospital of medical facility because they will be filthy and filled with incompetent bureaucrats and ancient malfunctioning medical machines. You will not have a home of your own but will be told where to live and what job you are allowed to work. All internet and phone access will be taken away because the regime will not want you talking to each other. You will be followed, watched and recorded every step of your life. People you know will begin to disappear or they will turn you in for some minor infraction just to get another ration of food or medicine. There will be elections, but in each one there will only be one candidate who will “win” 100% of the vote. I could go on and on but you get the idea. The only people who can prevent this is us.

The House Republican conference elected Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) on Wednesday to serve as their majority leader when the next session of Congress begins in January. Scalise was uncontested for the position, and the move would keep him as the No. 2 to current Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), assuming he becomes speaker of the House. McCarthy is facing a challenge from the more conservative wing of the GOP.

Colorado Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert is in one of the tightest races of the mid-term elections against Democrat challenger Adam Frisch to re-secure her seat in the US House, with only 60 votes separating them as of 6:30 p.m. Wednesday. The outspoken freshman lawmaker was trailing with 154,060 votes to Frisch’s 154,122 after 95% of expected ballots had been counted. Frisch, who called himself a “conservative businessman” in a late-October news release aimed at securing Republican support in the red-leaning district, held just 0.02% more votes than Boebert.

This Is How Government Breeds Mistrust 5 replies
Posted by Dodge Boy 8/28/2022 9:34:17 AM Post Reply
Keeping faith with others is basic to civilization. A government filled with suspicion does not earn the goodwill and affection of its people. Rather, it becomes an enemy in their eyes. The people’s disaffection increases the leader’s own mistrust. And so it goes, around and around, mistrust deepening at every turn of the circuit. A good example is taxation. The American income tax system has depended to a large degree on the willingness of people to fund their own government. Compare this to Italy in the ’80s, where distrust brought a very large percentage of the economy underground and off the books.

A few days after Russia invaded her home city of Kyiv, Kristina Nikolayeva's grandmother received a call from a family member in Russia. It was her son, Nikolayeva's uncle, who said he was going to join the Russian army, the same force engaged in invading their home country. It is a startling example of how effectively authorities in Russia have presented its attack on Ukraine as a just and humane war, in which Russian soldiers are liberating grateful Ukrainians from their Nazi oppressors.

When Prime Minister Boris Johnson recently announced an end to some medical mandates and virus-related restrictions in the United Kingdom, I thought: "This is a victory for nation-states over unitary global government." The reason the prime minister turned a 180 on his country's COVID-1984 tyranny seems to be intricately linked to his own personal scandals involving the breaking of various lockdown, masking, and social gathering rules that form the crux of the U.K.'s totalitarian health regime. If Klaus Schwab, George Soros, Bill Gates, or Anthony Fauci had complete control over the queen's realm, you can bet that the mandates would never go away.

I was in college when the planes hit the towers, studying that Tuesday morning before class in the student union. The woman who ran the student snack bar and I were the only people there that morning, and together we watched the second plane hit on live TV. At that moment, my stomach dropped. After the first plane hit, no one really knew what was going on, whether a small aircraft had accidentally crashed into the tower or if it had been an explosion or something else. But when that second plane hit, we knew. This wasn’t an accident. Someone had planned this. It was an attack.

The U.S. Capitol Police officer who fatally shot Ashli Babbitt on Jan. 6 during the insurrection was cleared Monday after an internal review concluded the action may have spared the lives of lawmakers and staffers who had barricaded themselves inside the building. "The officer’s actions were consistent with the officer’s training and (U.S. Capitol Police) policies," the agency's inquiry found. The agency declined to identify the officer. Federal prosecutors decided in April not to pursue criminal charges in the case. Some who supported the Capitol siege by rioters angry about the outcome of the presidential election cast Babbitt as a martyr to the conservative cause.

After nearly a week of radio silence while the Taliban were undoing 20 years of American investment in Afghanistan, Joe Biden returned to the White House to read from a teleprompter for under 20 minutes. Given the predictable straw man he presented of an all-or-nothing binary choice between "forever war" and immediate abandonment, it was par for the course to see Biden try to blame his predecessor. Biden's tactless defense consisted of impugning Afghans. It was followed by his hasty departure without taking a single question from a group of reporters he hand-picked under the guise of "social distancing." (Washington, D.C.'s total COVID-19 death toll this month: one.)

As the United States rolled back the clocks one hour this month to observe the end of Daylight Saving Time, many people got a bit more sleep than usual – but some not as much as others. Growing evidence shows that lack of sleep and sleep disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea, remain more prevalent in Black, Asian, and Hispanic or Latino communities, and these inequities can have long-term detrimental implications for physical health, even raising the risk of certain chronic diseases. Meanwhile, Daylight Saving Time itself – enacted in the US to reduce electricity usage by extending daylight hours – has long

For many Republicans, the final midterm election results were surprising— especially in the states of Arizona, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. Based on polling, it looked likely that Kari Lake, Adam Laxalt, and Mehmet Oz would win their contests. I believe that there are only three likely explanations for the unexpected results: late campaign surges, polling error, or aggressive ballot-harvesting. A late surge? Some Republicans are falling for an illogical narrative put forth by Democrats and the mainstream media.

Not a week had gone by after the midterm elections before California governor Gavin Newsom’s presidential possibilities were being talked up. A Republican consultant even suggested Joe Biden ask for Kamala Harris’ resignation and appoint Newsom as his vice-president. Biden could then either resign himself, leaving Newsom president, or position him to run as semi-incumbent in 2024. No matter what turns the journey takes, there will be a train wreck at the station. Don’t be fooled by the governor’s margin of victory this year (59-41) and in 2018 (62-38). He has done nothing in his public life that recommends him for the presidency. Popular, yes, competent, no.

Disney’s latest animated feature, the gay, green Strange World, just tanked at the box office. Gee, what a shock. You mean no one wants to waste their Thanksgiving weekend having their children prematurely sexualized by groomers with a side order of enviro-guilt? This should do wonders for Disney’s already cratered stock price. Strange World cost anywhere from $150 million to $180 million to produce. Add at least another $50 to $100 million to promote, and what you have here is a straight-up catastrophe, a quarter of a billion — with a “B” — write-off.

San Francisco hotels are demanding millions of dollars from the city to compensate them for damage incurred while housing the homeless under a municipal government program launched during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the program, known as “Shelter-in-Place” (SIP), hotels were used to move homeless people off the streets for fear of spreading the coronavirus in tent cities. Ironically, as COVID became better understood, officials began recommending against clearing homeless encampments, because the virus spread less easily outdoors.

More than seven in ten children aged 7-12 are now worried about climate change, research conducted by a UK-based start-up has reportedly found. It comes amid reports from various experts that children and teenagers of various demographics are experiencing high rates of mental health difficulties, with one school councillor earlier this year saying that anxiety rates have hit an all-time high post-lockdown.
