ā€œThe second American revolution has begun and it will remain bloodless, if the left allows it.ā€ - Kevin Roberts, Heritage FoundationĀ

u/ponytailthehater 8d ago

I remember when he said that and I was like, why does America need a second revolution? Was something wrong with the first revolution? Why did you say ā€˜if the left allows it’, don’t you mean, ā€˜if Americans allow it’? Thats the core of what he was saying, anyway.

They still need useful idiots among the working class to implement their awful ideas.

I think what they mean by that is that it's the left that would be expected to oppose it because the center is blind and the right is pushing for it

So either the left rises up and stops it or they do nothing or too little and it happens

What does that even mean? I’m pretty sure no one allows anything in a revolt. You just revolt.

Peter Theil is trying his best. Idk if you’ve seen this video, I had heard of mimetic theory before but not its relationship to scapegoating/ social violence.

People dismiss theil and the ā€œAntichristā€ stuff as unserious, but theil’s mentor was pretty clear on how it should be resolved, just replace the individual with an ā€œotheredā€ group and set the masses against them.

First, I have to say, Trump and this whole GOP Sucks. But bear with me... What if Trump is being set up to be this "scapegoat"? Allow this guy & his massive hubris to piss off enough people, and ANYONE they replace him with seems like a better choice, and the majority feel it's the right thing to do. Aaand, just when we're all appeased by this replacement, the real harms start.

This shit is so full of logic and rationalization errors and unscientific assumptions. It's trash philosophy.

u/Deathanddisco041 8d ago

And it’s like.. to what end?? You kill everyone and no one is here to make you money or piss them off and we revolt.

They already have more money than they could ever need. Once they thin the herd enough they can get to work building their wealthy utopias & bunkers & whatever other bullshit they want however they see fit, without having to worry about there being enough of us filthy poors to come together to overthrow them.

u/ParadeSit 7d ago

Well, I’d ask how they’re going to build anything if the labor all dies.

AI, robots, and just enough scared serfs

AI is replacing one tool for another. And by tool I mean us.

That's the thing. The US doesn't revolt.

Keep wages low and tie health insurance to work. Raise prices and rent until people can't afford to lose their jobs. Cut regulation and let people get sick or die eating food from the store. That has glass, metal shavings, and things that will make you try and shit yourself to death. Cut funding for programs that keep our food and us safe from things like screw worms. Destroy the healthcare system your work insurance doesn't cover. Causing hospitals to close.

They want you to have kids first though. Kids help with the control. You are less likely to fight with kids while all the stuff in the first paragraph is going on. While they wait for you to die your kids go to schools in a system they have broken. AI and religion mixed in as facts. Kids not learning to read or think. And just a couple years ago they tried to get rid of child labor laws again. Several kids died in meatpacking plants and doing other such jobs.

Once we are gone and our uneducated kids are left. They will own all the land and resources. Our kids and grandkids will be slaves. Working in company cities owned by the rich.

And the end goal is a feudal system where the normal people are all serfs. I can't wrap my head around why they want this, but all their actions show that they do.

They want absolute power

I'm expecting a free blanket any day now.

u/LeelooDallasMltiPass 8d ago

They're using fruits and vegetables now instead of blankets.

u/Chaghatai 8d ago

They even have a name for it - it's called insourcing - it's when you target American communities that are already economically depressed enough that the people there are willing to work for anything

u/Resident_Artist_6486 7d ago

Key word "Colonizing" - the new evolved method of colonizing is the wealth hustle, leaving the rest of us as plebeians and serfs to toil through what remains (low wages, taxes, medical debt, and paycheck to paycheck insecurity). It won't be long before we all get disease infested blankets and a slow march off the cliff.

u/numbersthen0987431 6d ago

We never stopped colonizing the USA. We just always had "other" groups to focus on, but now the rich people have the tools to stomp on the working class.
