An (eventually, ultimately) optimistic take from Robert Gore<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The trial for Derek Chauvin and the lack of one for the Capitol Hill policeman (name still unknown) are another reminder\u2014not that any are needed\u2014that savages aren\u2019t fair. It\u2019s pathetic and ludicrous to expect an appellate court to grant Chauvin a new trial, although it would have ample grounds to do so in anything resembling a fair judicial system.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s like saying, \u201cWait until 22 and 24!\u201d or, \u201cWait until the Arizona vote audit!\u201d after last year\u2019s blatant election theft. The savages have instituted corrupt arrangements that will enshrine their power in perpetuity. Expecting them to tolerate anything that would jeopardize those arrangements is like expecting water to run uphill. Fair or even quasi-fair elections would threaten their power. They are, like fair trials, but a memory.<\/p>\n

Savages beget savagery and nothing else, until they are stopped or they stop themselves. Don\u2019t count on them recognizing the production\u2014a civilized and thereby forbidden act\u2014and the producers\u2014civilized and thereby forbidden people\u2014that keep them fed and alive. And don\u2019t count on them not making your weaponry, your last line of defense, a use it or lose it proposition.<\/p>\n

They recognize no limits, certainly not the constraints imposed by reality. They may have to lay waste to the world before whomever remains of the honest and productive realize that their lives are a defend them or die proposition. For decades, America\u2019s rulers and their accomplices have said about the enemies of the day: they only understand force. It\u2019s projection, ascribing to others one\u2019s own motivations. They\u2019ve dressed it up in all sorts of verbiage, from Make the World Safe for Democracy to We\u2019re All In This Together, but force is what they understand and to which they\u2019ll always resort. The only thing that will stop them is superior force more competently wielded.<\/p>\n

Government of the savages, by the savages, and for the savages doesn\u2019t have much to draw on, and decades of propaganda have told savages to look to the government for every need. Vegetarian stew in every pot, two Teslas in every garage, paid for diplomas on every wall, a band-aid for every scratch, and a kiss for every boo-boo are just the minimum of what they\u2019ve been told to expect. If they don\u2019t get them it\u2019s the selfish civilized\u2019s fault. But who will they blame when the selfish civilized skip town or quit? And who will feed them?<\/p>\n

The separatists will have the productive capabilities. Many of the country\u2019s honest entrepreneurs (as opposed to its crony socialists) have already migrated. They will also have military expertise, especially after the savages eliminate retrograde rightwingerism and transform the US military into the most diverse, empathetic, and politically correct conflict resolution force the world has ever seen. (Oh, how the world trembles!) Notwithstanding the many thanks they\u2019ve received for their service to the savages\u2019 government, many veterans will join the civilized.<\/p>\n

After last year\u2019s mostly peaceful riots and the January 6 Insurrection That Nearly Overthrew The Most Exceptional Government In History, many savages bought firearms for the first time. Unfortunately for them, there\u2019s a big difference between buying a firearm and knowing what to do with it, and most of that knowledge (and millions of firearms) are on the side of the vets and the civilized.<\/p>\n

Many of the vets have also received on-the-job training in guerrilla warfare, against which the US government is batting zero. The government has many scary weapons, but it has repeatedly demonstrated an inability to keep such weapons out of the hands of its adversaries. Perhaps the separatists will prove as clever and capable as the Vietnamese, al Qaeda, ISIS, Taliban, and Iraqis and other groups have been at capturing US government weaponry. Notwithstanding their diversity, empathy, and political correctness, the conflict resolution forces would then find their weapons turned against them.<\/p>\n

At this point, imagination is far more important than a deer-in-the-headlights\u2019 fixation on present realities, because those realities are changing so quickly and chaotically. When the ground is continuously shifting under your feet, you can\u2019t know where you are with any certainty. Your chance of saving yourself depends on knowing where you want to go and having an idea of how to get there.<\/p>\n

Skepticism about imminent revolutionary change is understandable, but often betrays a misunderstanding of how revolutions in politics, science, culture, art, philosophy, learning, and all other fields of productive human endeavor work. The explosion visible to all is almost always preceded by a long, burning fuse visible to few and understood by fewer, only generally apprehended after the explosion.<\/p>\n

The burning fuse in this case is the awesome force of decentralization sweeping the planet; the revolution is actually well underway. Centralization is a legacy idea and government is its legacy institution. After centuries of centralized, resource-devouring, and tyrannical government failures, and after the failure of the most centralized, resource-devouring, and tyrannical government in history, legions of intellectuals of impaired intellect and infinitesimal imagination still hail or fear a centralized, resource-devouring, and tyrannical global government. That\u2019s not to say there aren\u2019t plenty of people out there trying to institute such a government, but they\u2019re building a three-foot-high wall of beach mud and sand against a tidal wave.<\/p>\n

That wave will arrive, of that there can be no doubt. Afterwards people will point to some contemporaneous event as the catalyst, but the catalysts have been accumulating for decades, their leitmotif decentralization. Multi-volume sets could be written about them all.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t get too attached to today; tomorrow it\u2019s gone. The questions that will emerge from the chaotic maelstrom: Freedom or tyranny? Civilization or savagery? Anyone who chooses civilized freedom is going to have to fight for it, but it\u2019s a fight that can and will be won.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
