There is a terribly disturbing societal trend underway. The political left really has learned the wrong things from world history and are in the process of repeating what the Nazi’s did to the Jew’s in 1930’s Germany. If you don’t think so then you’re being willfully ignorant of history.
First they came for the Socialists,
Martin Niemöller
and I did not speak out because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists,
and I did not speak out because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me.
If you don’t think it could happen in the United States of America then you’re either blind or naïve and both enable the downward spiral into the abyss. The seeds were sewn in fertile soil back in 2008 and now in 2020 those seeds have grown into the immoral tactics that we’re seeing from the political left, and these tactics have become so socially acceptable that they are expected.
Here’s the difference between the current crop controlling the political left and the current crop controlling the political right; it’s the political left that is actively trying to suppress the Constitutional rights of those they disagree with by means of intimidation and the court of public opinion (which is exactly what the Nazi’s did), the political right is actively supporting the Constitutional rights for all our citizens. I choose to support the Constitution and I swore an oath stating that…
Military Oath
I, Steve Witherspoon, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.
I will uphold my oath.
If people choose to support the growing trends of anti-Constitution, anti-American and anti-rule of law then they and I are on complete opposite ends of morality; their choices, their consequences. There is no ambiguity, it’s as simple as that.
I am not a Trump supporter.
I support the United States of America and the Constitution, period!
Here is my pledge…
The Pledge of Allegiance
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
God help us all.
Yes, it’s very troubling (to say the least) to see what is happening. Your comment today over at EA says in part how I feel.
“If there are no consequences for the candidate elected by fraudulent means then the ends do justify the means. If there are no real consequences to being fraudulently elected then the ones who are most effective at cheating win and our Constitutional Republic is doomed.”

…And I fear this is what the immoral right is learning. Tit-for-Tat will end in bloodshed and Civil War, with other nations standing in the wings ready to plunder.
Yet the only other choice, short of divine intervention, is extinction of the right.

Once again it is Republicans and Conservatives who choose to “move on” for the sake of comity and unity. We always turn the other cheek in the face of the liberal’s scorched earth tactics and creed….

Speaking of how Republicans choose the “move on” path, this blog post might interest you, it discusses and shows examples of how the Democrats and Republicans differ on this.

Yes, of course. It is the Republican President and his supporters who are insisting on moving on, rather than, say, hiring a team of lawyers to make outrageous claims on TV that they can’t seem to back up in a courtroom.

Uhhh, what?!?
We have evidence (on video!) of coordinated cheating in the election. If the shoe were on the other foot I think your reply would be the opposite.

The kind of video evidence that is getting Trump’s cases tossed out of court, apparently. In any case, it is not the Republicans who are “moving on.”
