Out of Outrage

But still angry

For the most part I’m out of outrage. Folks who’ve read my blog for many years sense something different about my take these days. If I had to pin it down, that would be it, I’m just out of outrage. Rather, I know what ultimately must happen and spend more of my time looking for some indication that it’s about to. Some pretty big red lines have come and gone with little more than a nod of recognition. No matter how serious the offense seems to be, the greater body of citizens shrug.

I’ve previously been outraged and outraged that there aren’t more people who are as outraged as I am. Take child sex trafficking for instance, it outrages me, but I look around and there’s no pressure on the DOJ to do something about it, like continuing to follow the guidelines Trump instituted to make some significant headway on it. Those who had been in the fight against child sex trafficking for quite a while recognized that Trump’s approach was having a significant impact.

The problem is partly that several of our congressmen, senators and presidents have visited Epstein’s Island and rely on that child sex trafficking for their sick rituals that demonstrate to themselves the amount of raw power they wield, because if they didn’t have the ability to exert extreme power, they’d be hung up like sheets on laundry day. The fact that they continue to walk around, knowing there are pictures of themselves on the island, in the jet, hobnobbing with Epstein and Maxwell, is enormously satisfying for these ritualistic abusers. And, to that point, not one of Maxwell’s clients have been indicted. That puts a big smile on their faces. See how much power they have.

The other part of the problem is that not one person with the power to bring these people to justice will step one foot out of their lane to do so. They will not risk their pensions, they will not subject themselves to threats to do so. All of those children be damned. Meanwhile, several high-profile people, celebrities and the like have been killed trying to expose it. The cinematographer killed by Alex Baldwin was going to work on a film that would have exposed the crimes; Anne Heche, a person I gave little thought and less consideration to before was also working on such a film and suffered death. Was that the reason or the cause? I don’t know, but after a few folks die in such a way, with one common point of interest, it becomes accepted whether it’s true, or not. It’s the lack of outrage or even reaction that is appalling.

This might be enough to spark outrage, if there weren’t instances of the illegal aliens flooding NY and DC now via buses from Texas, but getting welcomed there like returning heroes. At the same time, the Mayors of NY and DC complain about the bus loads of them being delivered. Which is it? Oh, that’s right, they’re communists with cover being run by law enforcement, the FBI, the media and, in some instances, the church, so they don’t get held to account for their hypocrisy or blatant criminality.

This is where the outrage dies and a solid understanding of what must come to pass takes over. We are in a civil war, have been for a while. How do you know you’re in a civil war? Here’s a few clues: is one political side exempt from blame, blatantly criminal, but the other political side is unable to make a common error without being raided and often arrested? That exists when one is in enemy territory. If just being alive and breathing is criminal, that’s an enemy and those seeking to punish them for it are enemy combatants.

One side relishes the former freedoms, when stating one’s mind, no matter how controversial, was not a crime. They recognize the value of capitalistic wealth creation and the ability of greed to lift all boats. One of the things I’ve always admired about capitalism is that the most vile misanthrope, the greediest little troll would, in their success, be unavoidably generous and beneficial to all around them. They want something done around their mansion, they need to hire people to do it; they buy goods that have to be produced; put their money into investments that benefit others who might even become competitors. On goes the train, wealth creates wealth which creates wealth.

The other side see only crimes and punishment. The rich need to be taxed and taxed, hurt and, if possible, driven into poverty with the rest of humanity, prosecuted for some common faux pas just to exact revenge. It’s a dark, envious lot on the other side. Fear, manipulation, coercion, punishment and revenge thrill their very existence. It makes life worth living. Throw in a little murder, child rape and debauchery and it’s dang near utopia to the left.

These are hard lines that cannot co-exist. They just can’t. While the right waits for some signal, some justifiable point of response, some legitimate grievance to be recognized, the other side, the enemy of the right, pursue their wretched course with villainous glee. They hate and in their hate cannot imagine those who do not, so they project hate everywhere they look and it pleases them to satisfy their bloodlust against those they imagine are as guilty of hate and vile victimization as they are. Where it does not exist, there are lies to insinuate that it does.

The part people miss about them is they think they are simply wrong or even deranged, they are not, they are evil, just purely evil and in a sane world would be destroyed as evil with no further justification necessary. I say that not out of hate, but out of recognition that a rabid dog cannot play with your child in the backyard as long as your keep an eye on it. You lock your child safely away and put the rabid dog down however humanely you can, but if you can’t do it humanely, you do it anyway.

I have never felt that way about the left before, I’ve disliked them, wanted to beat them in debates, at the polls, whatever. I wanted to win over the people with reason and rational discourse, bring some of those lefties truth and common sense and maybe find those areas on which we agree.

That was before Benghazi, when in a blog post the next day I pointed out that Hillary Clinton was lying about the video. I didn’t need to have evidence of it, it was clear from just a rational understanding of the situation, but it wasn’t just the fact of the Ambassador’s death or of the special forces being abandoned, Benghazi rose to that level, because of the inherent evil in trying to blame some dolt who put out a video no one ever saw, who was subsequently threatened with prison to keep his mouth shut, all so lies could be told to cover up what has been described as a gun-running operation. That’s who they are and to the extent that Republicans do the same thing, I have no affinity for them either. The Republicans only suffer because they don’t have the media covering their lies with omission.

It was before Benghazi. It was before the effective coup against Trump by interminable investigation, keeping him from not only performing the duties he was elected to perform, but also from exerting the power of the people through him by the administrative state. It was an effective coup while in office.

It was before the pandemic, when all communists rose to their totalitarian best, exerted the police state as a means of absolute control to the destruction of American citizens simply trying to save everything they’d worked for over decades. It was before ordinary store clerks thought it their role to administer health advice and request private, personal health records. It wasn’t just that that brought about the new understanding, it was the relish with which these store clerks engaged in this draconian level of enforcement and the degree to which so many of my fellow citizens complied that revealed the evil inherent in so many and the willingness to tolerate that evil in the rest.

It was before the stolen election, when all of the gears were lining up and no one put a stop to it. It was when witness after witness, whistleblower after whistleblower came forward to attest to the steal and the more than 50% of the people who thought there were significant errors in the election, but no one seemed interested in investigating the most important threat to the republic as has ever taken place in the open broadness of daylight. Silence. It was in the recognition that something like that could take place and be swept under the rug, that literally NO ONE on the left felt the slightest loyalty to the union to demand that an accounting take place and to allow for the chips to fall where they may. Civil war occurs when a significant percentage of the political class and those close to the sources of power no longer have any loyalty to the existing political structure or the abuses that structure prevents.

It was before the open borders, when it became clear that NO ONE on the left cared about the sovereignty of the nation, the integrity of elections, the purpose of the laws or justice so long as they retained the power to abuse and denigrate their political rivals. That’s straight up third-world, there.

Their vision, their utopia and mine, someone who wants to be left alone to write books, make movies or even drive a truck without answering to those pursuing constant surveillance of my life, constant harassment of my beliefs and constant denigration of my character simply because I knew freedom, what it meant, how it tasted in my mouth and have sworn to fight until the end to rip it from their grasp, are not only different but unreconcilable.

The FBI raid on Trump that seems to have so many upset, while vile and corrupt on its own, is no less vile and corrupt than anything previously listed. It’s just more on top of the mountain that already exists and ultimately it’s a good thing, because it shows that there is no loyalty, no fidelity to truth, justice or the American way. All these evil communists care about is devouring their enemies. This, I already knew.
