Did you ever really think things would get this crazy?

[eaglemike]

The Pro-hamas/palestine stuff, the dei stuff, and mary poppins disinformation (she's back!) stuff - this is just nuts.

Yes, I'm getting old, but I never though it would get this crazy. How do they have the time and energy to do this? Has life become too easy?
Did you think this would actually happen?

[Widdle]

No. A lot of stuff going on, I cannot believe is even a thing to be discussed. All the weird trans stuff, for example. Feckin clown world.

[Bar-Ang]

auntiefa, bee-el-em, fentanyl floyd .... anti-jews, pro terrorist, woke crap ... the world is getting more violent and demonic. better believe it that it's going to get worse.

[TrappedinCalifornia]

In one sense, it was almost inevitable.  Time creates complacence and such is what sets the stage to be taken advantage of as few, if any, remember what 'used to be' and too few wish to 'risk' what they have in a fight over what isn't remembered.

Another aspect, related to Cloward-Piven, is the overwhelming of the system.  Virtually anything/everything is made into a 'crisis,' with each agenda-driven individual/group being primed to take things to the bitter end.

Then you have the 'political class' which became more interested in having power than utilizing it for the common good.  As a result, people were divided into 'groups' and set against one another; often, even when those 'groups' actually shared many goals/aspirations. 

Of course, there is...  Well... A whole lot of reasons.

Did I ever think it would get this crazy?  Yep.

Did I do my best to fight against it becoming so?  Yep.

Did others do their best?  Some, even many in certain instances.

But, there's a reason for the observation. . .

After 9/11, no I never thought America would lose its way to socialism, wokeness and jihadists.  Then Obama and the far left came along, were joyfully voted into office and straight into the shitter our country went.  Not saying that Bush 1&2, and Clinton didn't have a part in it but Obama just mashed the accelerator pedal to the floor like Thelma & Louise.  Potato is Obama's meat puppet, just a place holder for the Deep State.

[2shotjoe]

what currently is happening, for the last few years, yes. 10 years ago, no. in the past far enough when Obama was POTUS, i never thought it was going to get this bad.

the far left run most of the institutions. media, Hollywood, schools, cities, etc.

Obama got the show on the road with all his dog whistles to the Progressive Marxist Left.  He was the one who stirred the pot and gave the green light to all the radicals to step up and agitate.  Today is no different than the 1960/70's with all the radicals protesting back then, they are doing the same thing except today the ball has been moved further down the field.  About the only thing different is there are no bombings or kidnappings this time, not yet anyway.

My mom was a brilliant visionary, nearly what I would consider prophetic. She told me all this stuff would happen and I can remember her telling me about it starting when I was about 10 years old and beginning to question the world.  Keep in mind this was 1972-ish. She told me don't worry about nukes (for now) the Russians don't want to all die. Worry about China, they will try and take us over through economic means.

She was a VERY staunch 2A defender. I don't know if she ever fired a gun in her life, certainly not in my presence. She told me everything hinged on the 2nd and they would try to rid us of it any way they could.

Everything she taught me went down just like she said... so I can't really say any of this surprises me. 

[kyle1886]

I would not be surprised if the "bombs" got larger and the "kidnappings" morphed into assassinations.  The 60/70's historically will be tame in comparison to what may come if we do not get the 'ship' righted.  I pray I am wrong.

If you thought this was not an inevitable conclusion, you have had your head in the sand. And it is only going to get worse. And if you think this has not been a bi partisan effort of the destruction of America, you are deluding yourself.

[high_revs]

it'll get worse. would it be like freaking sweden? letting all the aloha snackbars roam and create chaos thru protests

Well, did she ever happen to tell you how it all turns out in the end?

[ACfixer]

Good question, and that was something I can't recalling discussing a lot. But just like she was staunch 2A she was very in tune with the Biblical account of almost anything relating to life. I rarely saw her go the church, not never, but not often and I never really saw her reading the Bible much but she knew it very well. She would tell me the removal of God/prayer from school was the turning point in America and that the goal was to marginalize and villainize Christians and Jews. Not to turn this into a religious discussion but I would say her views on how it turns out would line up with the events described in Revelation.

Anyone that didn't literally feel/sense the spiritual shift during the covid debacle, needs to find a broader perspective from their daily routine and get in touch with their understanding of life's 'purpose'...

What I mean is, find your spiritual truth.

I'm not Bible thumping... I'm strongly advising you reconcile your reason for existence... If you think it's to make a bunch of money and pay the bills on behalf of the family you're responsible for, you're missing a MUCH bigger and deeper reasoning...

Remember, your reason for existence is no different from anyone else at any given time in any location... there are times/locations where the materialistic minutiae doesnt/didn't exist (but life's purpose does/did) <<< keep it in perspective.

The details of endless physical examples of what is happening - are all part of the complexity that our time here entails... they arent the 'cause' - the are the symptoms and in some cases the tools...

Many will advise to find God or find Jesus... that's not a bad idea, but (imo) it's a metaphor... you definitely need to find your spiritual awareness and find your path - or you will be steamrolled and have failed your purpose. God is that, but being 'taught' isn't the same as learning... find it within yourself - by whatever means works for you. Your truth will be tested.

BTW, ACfixer's Mom was right with her intuitive perception of events to unfold... it doesn't surprise me that she had that astute recognition, as he has been a soldier of awareness as well.

[daveinorovalley]

Been planned for a long time. Money given by people like Soros and others to eventually have what we see today. The evil out there isn't dumb, and they are very patient.

Prayer in schools was definitely a landmark thing.
Another gradual thing was the nedia starting to use terms like "right wing Christian" bad. They went on to make capitalist a bad word. Conservative, too. Now we have brandon saying MAGA is a bad thing. Who wouldn't want America great?
The left's actions are the great dumbing down of America.They want to lower the common denominator. make people dependent on the government, instead of strong and independent. They lower requirements so more people can make the grade. They allow, and even encourage, the beatdown of people that can actually think, or have different viewpoints. Look at the left declaring Ben Shapiro a threat when he want to speak on a campus. Matt Walsh, same.

Abolishing 'exceptionalism' and creating dependence absolutely results in mediocrity... we are living it real time, no doubt.

That's why some of us are living on 'our terms'...

You can't change everyone (and shouldn't)... but the discussions must continue...

They will succeed with controlling Healthcare, housing, and in many cases food... they are trying hard with 'discussions'...

Plan accordingly.

[ACfixer]

You guys have it right. There's not much we can do as individuals to influence it, I would have said vote, but then 2020 happened. I truly feel we delayed the plan by at least 4 years in 2016, Hildabeast was/is all about this stuff tearing down America. They didn't allow that mistake again on 2020 and I doubt 2024 will be any different. So...

The Pro-hamas stuff is well-organized and paid for by enemies outside the USA.....  I have no proof but I feel it in my gut.

It's definitely paid for and organized by someone other than the actual protesters. Maybe originating from the Soros family? Who knows? All the tents the same? When questioned, some of the protesters don't even know what they are protesting. i'm confident the protesters don't really know what Hamas stands for, and would be very unhappy if they had to live life under their rule (or whatever you want to call it). Some of them deny the Holocaust. Many of them deny Oct 7. Stunning. There are bad people in the world.
