|content=A year ago. Watching the "Stop the Steal"-train on the same track as the "Certify the Vote"-locomotive running in the opposite direction, with three days left.
Ā 
It does no good.Ā  We can see what is about to happen. But there is nothing we can do with that information w/o leaders.

|content=I clearly do not understand the argument for Donald Trump as the only answer to Democratic Party madness.
Ā 
Thereā€™s an entire universe of younger, saner, more reasonable, less tainted individuals. Veterans who served with humility and patriotism that is self-evident for example.šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

|content=I think this isnā€™t right.
Ā 
We have a world where institutions BLATANTLY lie in the vague direction of the truth to make the truthā€¦uhā€¦punchier. More viral.
Ā 
Some people, upon detecting the lies (e.g. ā€œClimate modeling is settled scienceā€), decide thereā€™s no truth in it *at all*.

Ā 
Many people are convinced Ivermectin is a total COVID solution since weā€™re obviously lying about human medicine as Horse Dewormer. It isnā€™t.

They donā€™t believe the Fed has ANY function because it does do some bad stuff.

Ā 
They arenā€™t principally embracing Trump or idiocy. They are rejecting obvious coordination of hype.

Ā 
I admire guys who donā€™t leave a buddy on the battlefield in war. This is just Twitter so itā€™s good practice. Samā€™s a close friend, not an account to me. And no real friend goes under the bus to placate a mob. Thatā€™s my policy.šŸ™

Ā 
That theyā€™re wrong? At least thatā€™s my opinion. This is not a secret. I have been warning Sam openly about the danger of his theory of Trump since dinner on Jan 3, 2017. https://t.co/TiLtTwDcOq

|content=Thatā€™s not a dunk. Itā€™s not dragging. Heā€™s been great on all sorts of stuff. But Free Will, Trump, &amp; the scalability of virtuous Atheism have been 3 areas of persistent disagreement.
Ā 
And Iā€™ll continue to disagree w/ my friend. Iā€™d be happy to discuss, steel-man or debate too.

Iā€™m not running away, so you can fire away at me in the comments.

Ā 
There are plenty of progressives opposed to Woke. Plenty of [[Donald Trump|Trump]] supporters who fear the danger in MAGA, and plenty of people in mainstream News and Politics in DC livid with the Swamp.

|content=I just listened to Biden's Philadelphia Speech.
Ā 
One overarching reaction. The speech was 1/3 of a speech. There are three groups threatening US Democracy. No one can give the needed speech until they all out all three groups:
Ā 
A) Extractocrats</br>
B) Wokestanis</br>
C) MAGAstanis

|content=All these groups are reacting to each other. MAGASTAN is trying to defend the US from Wokestani insanity and the Extractocrat Swamp and will forgive their leader almost any bad action because he seems to be the only thing out of central control powerful enough to disrupt DC.

|content=Wokestanis by contrast are trying to defend the US from some vision of Charlottesville madness energized by [[Donald Trump|Trump]] metastatizing into a mainstream nightmare.
Ā 
Mainstream Extractocrats try to protect the Swamp from the other party's "armed wing" while trying to operate their own.

|content=The ability to unify around American Values requires calling out all three groups. You can't single out MAGA or WOKE or the Swamp from one of the other groups. It just doesn't work. It looks like trying to get positional advantage. Biden would have had to talk about all of them.

Ā 
You would have to talk about "No Justice, No Peace" if you wanted to discuss political violence.
Ā 
You'd have to talk about Extractocrats Mitch McConnell &amp; Nancy Pelosi.

|content=To say it plainly, folks like me talk about our own party's problems so that we MIGHT one day be able to say "We have got to cut this all out."

In general, NO ONE in a position to give such a speech sees all 3 threats and is interested in sacrificing &amp; risking to name them all.

There is a difference here.

Ā 
I) As a genuine threat to American Values.</br>
II) As a geniune threat to Swamp opportunities and entitlements.
Ā 
Those of us who fear MAGA for reason I) also fear Extractocrats of both parties as well as the Woke. These are *all* threats to the US.

|content=My prediction however is that this is going to be viewed as the hypocritical blue portion of the Swamp trying to win a coming election with zero understanding of just how corrupt and dangerous all three groups are.
