Vote wisely in 2020.

[LuckyDuck]

Who one votes for should be simple.
1. If you like our Constitution and Bill of Rights, vote Republican.
2. If you like the idea of ending our Bill of Rights and thus peoples freedoms, vote the former Democrat Party (currently, the "New Socialist Workers Party").

These are trying times. We are under a global blight and we are being tested. I watched a Netflix series last night on Jewish pogroms with film and photographs taken by Nazi coordinators. The people, men, women, and children were forced to get into pits and were shot. Then others were made to crawl on top of still warm bodies, and they were shot. Layer after layer of humanity were exterminated like slaughtered animals and buried like trash after they had dug their own graves.

I wonder what my Jewish neighbors think of what is happening on college campuses today where young, impressionable minds are whipped up to violence in a groupthink environment. Identity politics certainly appears to be a modern rendition of ethnic scapegoating and “adjustment”. Why is this happening? To make a better world of course. The world needs fixing, and as usual it is the intelligentsia marshalling mobs to repair the damage done by offending groups.

When the police in occupied countries were recruited to kill their neighbors by the Nazis they were acting in their own best interest. They were plied with Nazi food and alcohol and they became numb to the carnage. Human atavism was ubiquitous and sadistic perversions of the spirit were king. Do you think that could not happen now? You are wrong. Who are the bad guys? Look in the mirror.

As an aging white man and a contemporary new Jew, I do not like what I see happening. I see the state-educated Einsatzgruppen toppling statues in basic training exercises and I know what could come next. They say power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Our educational system bears this out. To few are trained to do useful things. Instead they are incited to settle old scores pointed out by indoctrinating Liberal Arts instruction.

Men against women, old against young, rich against poor, black against white and of course, ignorant against educated-get in your line. We live in a first world country where there is plenty of food and even the most deprived live like royalty a hundred years ago. Lifespans are getting shorter, basic family structure is disappearing, intelligence is dropping, and no one is happy. “The fault dear Brutus is not in our stars but in ourselves, that we are underlings”.

Our impending election is about the overthrow of a tyrant that favors nationhood over world government-vote wisely.

Fantastic post as usual. My wife and I are not religious Jews, however, her father's mother was Jewish, as was my mother's maternal grandmother. She is Catholic, I am protestant Methodist. Nevertheless, the recent resurgence of politically approved antisemitism is concerning. We often worry that a neo-fascist democrat party might decide to do genealogy tracing should it ever come to full, uncontested power here in America and if so, how we might be singled out and persecuted for our ancestries.

As many as possible. They've proven time and time again they are unable to govern.
They are now forever known as the Party of Trump.

Yep, Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, New York, San Francisco, Detroit, Baltimore, Chicago and others are such great examples of how well Democrats can do....dumbass.

All vibrant cities with their share of problems (because they're big cities). But a lot of good as well. You keep beating on the wedge issues that your alt-right media masters have carved out and distributed as talking points. Just for the purpose of dividing the country. And you baby birds open your mouths and swallow it whole without question. That's a good little lemming!

Sure, that "vibrancy" is from the fires being set....fricken dumbass.

I always vote wisely.

I will do the same in November.

I will put our world, nation and my children first when I vote for Joe Biden.

In which Ayn Rand dystopian world are you reviewing? You conclusion is a vague as your entire post. It is not an argument, per se; it is a jumble of half-truths, innuendos and the sophistry of a curmudgeon.

The only relevant takeaway is the title, and the wise men and women will not vote for Donald Trump's reelection. It matters not if they are a man or a woman, old or young, rich or poor, black, brown or white; their vote cast must not be to support a megalomaniac, whose sole purpose is to enrich his ego and his pocketbook.

My dad's mother was Jewish and she was born in Romania, the rest of my ancestors on both sides were Catholic, all from central Europe (German or France) and one from Italy, I'm not the least bit paranoid.

"economic populism" is a buzzword. It has many definitions many of which are contradictory.
