Like I said over on Reddit:

With everything else they are doing, this is beyond poking the bear. This is poking the bear and gloating in its face. And because they seem to lack the ability to do cause and effect, I am sure they will also be absolute shocked when the bear starts mauling them, and have no idea what they did wrong.

They're probably trying to goad the right into some kind of dramatic escalation to use as pretext for something even more horrifying. I think the events of the 6th caused the establishment/globalists/whatever to advance their timetables significantly. If there's one thing that might scuttle their plans, it might be the left right now is so bloodthirsty that they're blinded by their own bloodlust.

I think its because they think it will be some sort of easy fight that they will instantly crush the right if they rose up.

I think they greatly underestimate the rights power and overestimate their own.

I also think they are going overboard because, to put it simply, they have seen themselves as gods who are untouchable, and then here comes some goofy right wingers who scratch them, reminding them of their own mortality and its causing them to fly into a rage to regain their sense of power.

Its also why I think they are pushing so hard on a timeline basis. When you look at all of the world elites pushing this sort of stuff, they are all old bats probably nearing the end of their lives. And they want more and more power because "I am a GOD! I cant be dying!"

You bring up a really good point that I hadn't thought about. All the months of riots and violence by the left didn't touch the people in the establishment, particularly the most powerful and longest reigning people in Congress. Big business can replace broken windows and stolen products or just move, but the real victims were always the small business owner and the innocents caught up in it.

Now the left did commit a lot of vandalism and protests outside the homes of these guys, and in some cases did physically assault some low level politicians, but again, nobody in 'The Cathedral.' Plus they always had the protection of private security, or police in their pocket. It wasn't until the right made them cower in their seats that they felt something they, perhaps, hadn't felt before, actual fear, actual danger. These are the same people who send you and your children off to war. Memento mori indeed.

It hit me, of all reasons, from watching 300 again (because some time away from all this is absolutely helpful, the stupider the better). And it got to the scene where Xerxes offers Leonidas unlimited power if only he kneeled. I heard much of the modern Left (especially the high elite) in what Xerxes was saying and how they were acting. And remember, at the end of the movie when Leonidas knicks him with a javelin and causes him to bleed, he starts losing his shit and starts to leave from his own delusions about godhood.

Then the events in DC went down, and it clicked.

It also doesn’t help that they paint us all as backwards hill billies or the most out their people from the 6th. If you think your opponent can’t read above a 2nd grade level it’s really difficult to ever see them possibly out maneuvering you. And the thought of a repeat of 2016 terrifies them because it proved that their belief system is completely wrong.

Even some people "on our side" do it. Its always annoyed me when Tim Pool goes on one of his "5-Gen Warfare" spergs and and says the right would never win because they would all just be banned from the internet and unable to communicate and then the media would say they are all terrorist and so they lose before it even starts.

Nevermind that this assumes the comm situation is entirely static (I can think of plenty of ways it stops, but usually on a "If we cant talk, no one talks" basis). It also assumes that the Right has NO way to communicate with each other beyond the internet.

Now I dont know if Tim has just never met an honest to god militia type (the sort who would actually be doing the heavy lifting in the possible throwdown), but from what I remember, those types barely trust PHONES, never mind the web. Hell, our comms can even be mobile, considering there is a guy near where I live who has an entire radio array built in the bed of his truck.

I’ve been convinced for a long time that the left labeling everyone who disagrees with them as “Nazis” stems from a deep-seated desire to have a repeat of Weimar Germany but with the communists winning instead.

Doesn’t matter if they can’t find any real Nazis to fight, they’ll just invent some.

This bear better wake the fuck up because he seems to be hibernating so far.

I'm sorry but it really looks like he didn't see the voter fraud coming, he didn't see the violence coming, he didn't see the banning's coming, and he didn't see the betrayal's coming. And look, I know what he said. But where's the redundancy? Where was his army of lawyers ready to go to war over this? Why in God's name, did I still hear that Republican poll watchers allowed themselves to be pushed out of polling centers without activists showing up and banging on the windows to scream "LET. THEM. IN."

Trump's a strong willed guy, but where the fuck is his organization? Does he have no loyalists?

If Trump was ever going to put up a fight, it's right now because they are going to go after his family.

I don't know what they'll do with Trump, they'll definitely try to imprison him. But I'm serious when I say I think they'll try to kill Don Jr.

Because Don Jr. is plenty of a fire-brand, is more well-versed in the culture war, and is much younger than his father. If 4 years of oppression, lockdown, hyper-inflation, and state sponsored terrorism go down, which it will, Don Jr. is going to be an absolute force to be reckoned with. Voter fraud or no. And for that, they might put a bullet in him.

Trump isnt the bear in this analogy. His base is, along with the disaffected in the middle who hate the establishment.

If I had to make a comparison for Trump, he is either the Gracchi Brothers or even Julius Caesar (with his own Brutus in the form of Pence). With that, I do wonder who the Octavius/Augustus in this scenario will be, as one will absolutely rise (Octavius was a Plebian after all).

I guess Jr. could be an option, but I do share your fear that he will be a target. I just pray that their hubris does them in like many a tyrant in history.

In that case, yeah, the bear's waking up alright.

Does he have no loyalists?

The more time goes on the more it appears that no, he had none in almost any position he filled or had power. Everyone he appointed seemed to be either willing to betray him the moment it got tough, or were always Swamp creatures just capitalizing on his power plays.

That's the part that almost makes me sad, looking here at the very end and what we know it truly appears that he had almost no one supporting him in the government and you really can't take on your opposition alone. Especially not knowing your "supporters" will screw you at the last moment.

Maybe I'm being melodramatic. He still failed plenty, but more and more I keep asking "what chance did he have" as everyone dependable sells out over basically the last month.
