I know a lot of people who are having trouble handling the way things are going. The left has engaged in sustained, random, low-intensity violence on a national level. People feel they need to prepare, but they can't retaliate, and that constant edgy readiness is already wearing people down while the left continues to randomly burn and loot with impunity.
Do people have some ideas on how to handle that constant background noise without getting worn down and losing before the fight even begins? I've been able to compartmentalize and just wait to do the job that's in front of me, but not everyone can do that.
We both seem to agree completely :) I mean I honestly don't see how the west coast comes back from this to the founding principles of individual civil liberties, I don't see it happening.
I've lived in several post soviet countries, and they will all tell you that this very same shit is what got them there. It's coming.
We're escaping to Montana for Thanksgiving. So hoping that things are better there.
Best of luck. Montana just legalized pot, so I worry about their long-term future with regard to inter-state immigration trends. Hopefully you can stem the tide of Californians now considering the state "in play".
I can tell you that housing is tight, and not cheap.
But my god I'm so tired of looking at people in masks and I can't tell who they are and I can't understand what they're saying; and the plight of the children just makes me cry. It's fucking terrible. I have to get out.
I sympathize. I have local places I go to where people don't care about masks, but they're few and far between. And I make sure they're rewarded. The place I go to when I truly want to feel normal is a brewery in Coeur d'Alene. No one -- not even the staff -- wears masks there. Went there once in July and again in October, and both times it was the most normal I've felt since the Before Time.
Rock on, the local speakeasy. Noice
But here the comrades love the rules and obey the great poohbahs of truth leadership. My son thinks it's like a cult.
Build the wall in your neighbourhood.
Expel violent, unreasonable leftists from society.
I was a libertarian for a long time until I realized that laws can serve a secondary purpose of gatekeeping. I don't care if someone smokes pot, but states where it isn't legal should make it a capital offense if it can keep their state from turning Blue.
This is the flawed thinking that produced the problem in the first place. It was the criminalization that fueled the incarcerations that lead to a poor, fatherless underclass that votes blue blindly enough to keep the dems competitive.
