I will gladly clarify anything written here, but from my standpoint this will not be a back and forth debate. I just feel it's important at this time I take a stand, and hopefully this will get some of you to think more critically about the monumental political events taking place in our new country.

United States of America - 1776-2021 RIP

We had a good run, 225 years is a long time and the duration is similar in time to other great nations/empires over the course of history. Our rise and fall as a great nation has followed a familiar arc of powerful regimes of the past. It's amazing to realize this is happening in our lifetimes, but I guess it really shouldn't be too surprising. Eventually even great nations become corrupt and end up swallowing themselves under it.

So why is it over? Over the last 5 years I've spent a ton of time reading, watching, and researching the events which have unfolded. I consider myself informed but certainly not an expert. Eventually a lot of books will be written on what really happened to our republic, and I look forward to gaining as much education as possible. I'm a conservative but not a far right activist or conspiracy theorist.

I was watching the US vs Canada in the World Junior hockey tournament the other night as most of you were watching the Wolves game live. At the same time I was following the results of the Georgia Senate runoff elections. As the outcomes of each event came into focus I was struck by a sobering thought. I believe I was witnessing the last time the USA would compete athletically as a truly free nation. The magnitude of that thought has consumed me for the past 36 hours.

It's extremely obvious to me the presidential election on 11/3 was stolen. And I believe the same thing happened Tuesday night in Georgia. Forces both foreign and domestic conspired to pull this off. And though you are seeing the end result currently, this has been a long term process and evolution over several decades.

I invite you to look up the soviet communistic goal document of 1963. When you read through the goals and objectives you should be amazed at how many have actually been realized today. Not by the soviets of course, but by communist China. The ones that really stick out to me:

1) Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States. (Check)

2) Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their
activities violate civil rights. (Check)

3) Get control of the schools and bring propaganda to the curriculums. (Check)

4) Infiltrate the press. (Big time Check)

5) Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures. (Check)

6) Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and
emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a "religious crutch." (Happening)

7). Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of separation of church and state. (Check)

8) Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern
for the "common man." (Happening)

9) Support any socialist movement. (Check)

10) Infiltrate and gain control of big business. (Check)

11) Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce. (Happening)

This represents about 25% of the paper, and again I encourage you to look it up if interested.

At the core of my beliefs is once you don't have free and fair elections, you really don't have a democracy. The republic is gone. With the compromised democrats now in charge, they and there communist influencers have free reign to shape the new America. The borders will be opened. The Supreme Court will become another branch of the democratic government and will hold 16 - 25 members. Government control and taxes will rise significantly. Tens of millions of babies will continue to be killed every year, some right up until birth. Elections may become a thing of the past, or they will be so wired no one will bother to vote. Minorities will get more financial breaks and incentives ( a good thing if you fall into that category). More recreational drugs will be legalized. The likelihood of civil war increases. Their will be no more free press, you can already see the censorship and filtering from big Tech, and of course the folly of the mainstream media. We are no longer going to know what is truly going on, just like our fellow humans in all those communist and dictator led countries.

Does the above sound like the same country you have grown up with and hopefully love? Like I said earlier very sobering indeed.

That is some tinfoil hat stuff right there. I am with Kahns and others. Regardless of what side of the fence you fall, do we not work off facts or any sort of proof anymore? It's just so strange.

I will fall for bait a bit and state that it is likely IMO that every election since the beginning of time has been "handled" to some level. The whole system is broken, starting from who can become a candidate. The fact that this election cost Trump and Biden $1.3 BILLION shows the very problem with our system. No one, but a few elite, can even have a shot at office. The odds simply state these elite few will likely NEVER be even close to the best candidate for the people.

I digress. These are some crazy times we live in.

Tinfoil hat? Seriously... Just wow. We aren't talking about aliens here, we're talking about understanding what has happened to governments throughout history and recognizing the same trends in our current society. The OP is just trying to inform"friends" on here about something he thinks is important enough to voice. We're heading toward socialism really fast now, and if that's what you want, then great, but I think most people don't really understand what that means. It's really sad that those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.
