This is for the record...
I feel as if I am preaching to the choir, talking about how there has been a lot of cause to fear for the future. Rise of tyrannical governments, the march of what is effectively a secular Leftist cult, and assault on Western Culture by those who desire a single Globalist culture.
But what if I told you, thats only what the powers that be want you to believe? As has been said before: if they were winning, the propaganda would be unnecessary. And with that statement, I can already hear the blackpilled doomers complaining, but I will deal with that later.
If you need some starting proof, a few months ago, the Fabian Society (the group responsible for much of the ills of our current world) tried to declare an end to the culture war, because they are losing in it. The Fabians have whipped up their mob into a frenzy, which has allowed them some short-term power, but it has made it obvious what they are doing, and it turns out that a lot of people do indeed see it happening, and hate it. But their mob is so whipped up that they are effectively a self-driving machine who runs on their own bullshit in a self-feeding cycle. And that is bad for their cause.
Perhaps you are still unconvinced? Done worry, I have more. We start with the fact that more and more non-Leftist are starting to notice that they are indeed our enemy rather than just someone with a different opinion. And its resulting in opinions shifting. Perhaps the most important one is that trust in media can be described as "apocalyptic." Oh sure, the Democrats/Leftist still trust the media and are being influenced by the Globalist, but they were going to be anyway so that hasnt added to their ranks. Meanwhile, Independents have started turning against it, and the Right/Anti-Left is turning actively hostile. And stuff like what happened with the attempts to pretend nothing happened in Waukesha just further moves it along. Because while the Left is willing to live in their fake media-driven world, most average people know that its not normal to have your care frequently broken into. In fact, pretty much every major thing the Left is currently trying to push, most people know its crazy, and they are starting to fight back against it. Why do you think the school boards went crying to the Federal government, complaining about how the big bad parents are bullying them and leaving their shithole schools to start homeschooling in vast quantities, because they would rather not have their children brainwashed.
And that is where it starts. The counter-attack is here. There is a smaller, but older and wiser, individual I watch for some of my political commentary that put it in an interesting light. Essentially, you see the same sort of things happen all the time in war, including in political ones. The Left surprised the Right, doing things the average person never thought they would do, up to and including "fortifying" an election. Then in the months after their surprise attack, they have been on the offensive, taking anything and everything they wanted. This is where the tyranny and censorship comes in. But a sneak attack only works once, and once the moment is gone, and the enemy knows what you are doing, you better hope you had a Plan B. As it turns out, the Left did not. Much like the blackpilled doomers, they relied entirely on their tyranny and their "fortification" to win. But the Right has adapted to that. Enter: Scott Presler. Gay man and in general very much "non-traditional" by old school conservative standards. And the man who may have ensured Florida may stay Red for the foreseeable future. Also heavily involved in Virginia, and helped flip it. And this is just one man. Steve Bannon has thousands of such men winning in local offices, which is allow the Populist to run the Republican Party as their own personal instrument of revenge against the Left attempting to destroy their nation. And they are getting smart. A not often talked about aspect of what happened in Virginia is that many right-leaning Rural and Suburban counties held back their reported votes until the Cities reported theirs. Which means the "fortification" was too little, and therefore effectively meaningless.
And this was merely one state, one election. Not talked about as much is that across the country, the Left was utterly routed even with fortification attempts. New Jersey was much closer than it ever should have been, and next time they may not have the luxury, as now you will have a lot of Anti-Leftist who know you can win. Especially after a trucker with a few thousand dollar budget beat one of the most entrenched members of the New Jersey Senate. In Pennsylvania, the Right won a sweep, winning every judicial appointment up for grabs, kneecapping the power of the Governor who is an insane Leftist. Large swaths of Texas, with large Hispanic populations, showed that their shift toward the right was not a once off thing. Almost every schoolboard was won by the anti-woke. And that will continue, because even though the Fabians want to step back and get back into the shadows, their idiotic pets dont have the control to do that and are running around like the idiots they are shouting the plan to everyone, and more people are starting to believe them.
That is the thing about sneak attacks. They are not supposed to destroy you, they are supposed to make you surrender. If you dont, there are very few paths forward. Which is what the blackpilled dont understand. They want to take the bait and surrender because they believe the propaganda, instead of standing and fighting against an enemy so weak they need you to not fight as their only way to win. If you need someone to dopeslap you so that you stop marching around screaming about how its game over, do it. But find a post and start actually digging in and fighting. Plenty of others are doing it, and you even have some of the smart Leftist trying to run and hide because they can tell their reckoning is coming, and they dont want to be somewhere they can be found. They are openly talking about it now, and about how a lot of the up and coming members of the Right are absolutely wise to their tactics and theories, and wont be tricked as easily.
And if you need the ultimate proof: Kyle Rittenhouse. The whole media declared him guilty, did everything they could to threaten the jury along with their foot soldiers, and ran with false news, demanding what they wanted. And the jury, made up of normal people, looked at them, spit in their face, and said "Get bent, weirdos."
So, to the rest of you apes, stand your post, Get some fucking hype, and Hold! The! Fucking! Line!
And we are now at the end. Once again, if they were winning, none of what they have done would be necessary. Take heart to that. And with one final meme to set the tone, this is TheModernDaVinci signing off, for now.
The Absu case is one of the things that finally convinced me there was no escaping this shit. No matter what crack you crawl into, no matter how obscure and hermetic your interests, even if you're innocently enthusiastic about some niche Texan black-thrash band who larp as resurrected Celts - the globohomo gon' gitchu.
With Absu, it was a guitarist they added 10 years ago, just prior to their last album. In metal, a slow album cycle is not unusual as you know; they know the fans are always going to be there, rain, shine or apocalypse, so the bands compose accordingly. Still, this person's contribution amounts to 1 out of 5 total albums for the band. The guitarist in question was no tranny at the time, and actually contributed to a pretty damn solid album, also did well in the live setting, especially considering they trimmed down their live setup from 2 guitarists to 1, the yet-to-be-tranny. Then 2016 hits, guitarist develops TDS over several years, finally outs self as tranny, quits band. Makes blog posts, leaks 'transphobic' messages from the drummer/vocalist/composer who basically owns the band, yet they're extremely innocuous. But among the tranny's rants are implied legal threats about not using his guitar lines or ideas in the upcoming release (which might have been fully recorded by then, it's unclear). It delays the much-anticipated album by years.
Meanwhile I, who deliberately put myself on the fringe of society, am sat there thinking: Can't. Fucking. Escape. This. Shit.
Anyway they finally put out an album employing a guitarist from Possessed and it's some of the most incredible shit I've ever heard. I've been listening to extreme metal for 23 years and I don't say that lightly. It's an enormous relief, for whatever it's worth. Even if they stole some of the tranny's guitar lines (which I doubt), that's funny enough to be satisfying.
