Thoughts on Charlottesville; Rumblings of Civil War

Timothy Birdnow

One of the basic conditions for the victory of socialism is the arming of the workers and the disarming of the bourgeoisie

Vladimir Ilyich Lenin

Here are some takeaway points on the riots in Charlottseville:

1.The problem started when the very left wing town decided to remove a civil war monument because some malcontents didn't like honoring the Confederacy. The Confederacy is part of our history and it transcended slavery; it was founded primarily on the idea of states' rights as opposed to protecting slavery, and the people who volunteered to aid their fellow countrymen (and at that time America was not a monolithic empire as it is today but a federated system, a coalition of semi-independent republics with a limited central government) did so to protect their homeland, which was being invaded by what they saw as an oppresive alien regime. You would be hard pressed to find anyone saying they were fighting to preserve slavery (and especially that would be true of the black people who volunteered to fight for their homes, or for the native Americans who allied themselves with the Confederacy over the Union.)

One of the long-standing tricks of the Left is to erase history and replace it with something more pleasing to itself. George Orwell stated in 1984 Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.' and Orwell (once a socialist himself) understood that history had to be scrubbed in order to achieve absolute power. This trick - gleaned from Islam - tries to scrub history by suppressing books, suppressing the teaching of "counterrevolutionary" ideas aka political correctness, and by destroying monuments. Monuments are important because they remind people of where we have been. Even monuments to people who are not so nice still serve as a warning to not repeat the mistakes of history. The Left seeks to remove those monuments and install their own.

Take, for example, what happened on the campus of sT. Louis University a couple of years ago. SLU's new president allowed, nay, invited Occupy SLU, a radical leftist group, to invade the campus and make demands on the school. Eventually the "clocktower accord" was reached. Shortly thereafter Fred Pistello, SLU's used car salesman president, removed the statue of Fr. DeSmet because it was deemed "racist" since DeSmet was seen anointing a native American who was on his knees (as all catholics used to be when receiving Communion.) Pistello sought to replace this with the agreed upon statue to commenorate the Occupy SLU invasion. While he never succeeded in doing that I have little doubt he isn't still trying. Why? Pistello is a former Sociology professor and knows the importance of erasing history and replacing it with his own.

So, when an event entitled "uniting the Right" was announced to protest the removal of the civil war statue the Left went mad - because counterrevolution is the gravest sin to radicals and this was counterrevolution. They plotted a violent response from the get-go.

2. There were the same people who have been rioting and looting and shooting at police officers for the last few years. Funded by George Soros (an immigrant who seeks world revolution) these "counterprotesters" were not simply people who thought the Klan and the Nazis were bad but rather the black power groups like The New Black Panthers. It included the Occupy Wall Street types, the radicals shooting at cops and whatnot. Why, one must ask, is it the fault of the original protesters who had a permit when in recent years there have been no, zero, zilch, nada violence from the "right wing" as the Leftists try to tar the right with Nazism and racism - both solidly out of the left wing camp. There has been no violenc on "the right" contrary to what Mark Potunk at the Southern Poverty Law Center tries to claim. It was a leftist who tried to assassinate the GOP in Congress. It is leftists who shoot cops. It is leftist who rioted in Ferguson and Baltimore. All of the violence has been on the side of the liberals, not the Right or the "Alt-Right".

Oh, and if you want to claim Naziism is a right wing movement than ponder this:

http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/08/trump_vs_the_neonazis.html

This is Andrew Anglian writing in 2013 in his other website Total Fascism (which is also now defunct):

"We will initiate massive state-subsidized work programs in order to fulfill our goal of full employment at fair and just wage… the capitalist system has created a war between the classes. The losers of this war have been the working class… the modern class structure being based largely on one’s economic prowess… The spoils of this parasitical elite class will be seized and redistributed to the people.”

And here's the words of the guy who inspired Anglin's own words, Adolf Hitler:

"We are socialists, we are enemies of today’s capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions.” -- May 1, 1927


End excerpt.

Both Fascism and Communism originated in the concept of the Collective Will in Rousseau's The Social Contract. (By the way, Rousseau was a great admirer of Islam, upon which he modeled hsi vision and which has been a cornerstone of all modern leftist thought since.)

3. Violence is natural in Leftism.

Consider this Lenin quote:

"One Man with a gun can control a hundred without one."

This would be echoed by Barack Obama, Community Organizer, who would say "if they bring a knife we'll bring a gun"; he believed in the power of violence and no doubt still does. Violence is mother's milk to the Left.

4. So is control of the media. Again Lenin:

"The press should be not only a collective propagandist and a collective agitator, but also a collective organizer of the masses"

and

"A lie told often enough becomes the truth."

Which is precisely what we are seeing in play in this whole Charlottesville riot; the media chose sides immediately and condemned the President for condemning violence on both sides. See, there just aren't two sides to this because there are only angels and demons. Saul Alinsky, prophet of leftism and hero to both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, admonished his followers to create a stark dichotomy because without it they could never advance their cause. Someone who oppses them is not mistaken or has a point, rather they are evil incarnate. So the protesters here were Nazis and Klansmen and evil incarnate and so naturally are defacto at fault. It does not matter that many of the people who attended may not have been either; there were a few of them there so automatically they are evil and the counterprotesters are automatically doing the Lord's work. That they showed up to do the work of the Lord with billyclubs and tear gas is immaterial.

The media reports this as a war between light and dark, a kind of Zoarastrian vision whereby the deities are fighting for the soul of our country. They and their side are angels of light, of course. Those who oppose them are devils.

It matters little that the angels may have coldcocked the devils; what matters are the intentions, which in any case are indefensible on the "alt right" side.

And so this morality play will continue, and condemnation of Trump as a racist monster will be pushed, a lie told endlessly to hopefully change reality. It'll work, too, in the minds of the shallow and the ignorant who still believe the media simply reports the news.

5. There are reports that the police were given orders to stand down, and even if that is not the case they grossly mishandled the situation. Remember, the "Unite the Right' people had a legal permit and the counterprotesters did not. The police did not try to keep the groups seperate; in fact, people on the scene say they drove the UTR protesters into the leftists when the city declared it an illegal event (at the last moment.) The city had agreed to security measures that they then failed to enforce, and much fo the trouble is a result of that. Why, it's almost as though someone WANTED this trouble.

Terry McCauliff, governor of Virginia, certainly stood to profit by it. A former Clinton hack and union thug, McCauliff is clearly a man who understands the uses of violence for political ends, and he is unscrupulous enough to at least take advantage of it. And the Mayor of Charlottesville is a radical liberal who would also understand it.

6. Why haven't we heard anything about the heliocopter that crashed? That is an unusual thing, and it is interesting it happened this very day. Did someone shoot it down? I am quite suspicious about coincidences in cases like this.

7. In fact, I am suspicious of all coincidences where politics is concerned, and this worked out entirely too well for the left. As has been reported there is evidence the organizer of this event was formerly an Occupy Wall Street guy and Obama supporter, which suggests he may have been an agent provocateur, http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/08/something_stinks_about_charlottesville.html likely a guy working for Organizing for America, Obama's outfit. He seemed to have had a "come to Jesus" moment in 2016. Oh, this information comes from the Southern Poverty Law Center, the radical leftist organization, not Breitbart.

This whole event looks very much like the Ferguson riots, which were financed to the tune of 33 million dollars by George Soros and his ilk. Ferguson was a violent, bloody act of political theatre by interlopers from outside the community and so was this event.

So Donald Trump urges restraint until we know what happened and calls out violence on both sides and the media goes insane. There are now open calls to violence and revolution may well be at hand. This is not going to end well.

But the Left, the democrats, the media, and the #Nevertrump Republicans (including Marco Rubio, the Gang of Eight guy) are fantasizing this will be the key to removing Trump from office. Trump is not going to step down; they are going to have to remove him. I suppose this will be one of their articles of impeachment, but it is hardly a high crime or misdemeanor. He simply disagrees with modern political correctness. Apparently we no longer have freedom of speech in this country. In fact, we don't have freedom of thought.

8. Attempts to make this an act of terrorism are beyond ridiculous. The driver of the car may or may not have thought this out (probably not; I saw a film clip with a car driving hell bent for leather in reverse with people hanging on it - they were trying to turn it over. The driver of the killer car may have been trying to avoid a similar fate) but there was clearly no laid out strategy and it was hardly designed to engender terror.Merriam Webster defines terrorism as:

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/terrorism

the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion

There is nothing systematic about what happened at the hands of UTR, but there most certainly is where the Alt Left is concerned. We have seen riots in diverse places. These same people show up at Trump rallies and assault people waiting to get in, or they riot in Ferguson or in St. Louis or Baltimore. They shoot at cops and sometimes kill them. They have been getting away with this for some time now and THAT clearly meets the definition of terrorism.

The liberal media should be careful what they wish for.

In the end, this whole thing appears like a staged event, something that somebody went to great lengths to orchestrate. We never see Ku Klux Klan rallies, and the few that they hold may have two or three people, yet suddenlly the Klan (a Democrat organization, I might add) is out in force, resurgent. Hmmm. Trump won a lot of black votes in November, and that cannot be allowed to stand. Nazis, too, are few and far between, yet here they are in great numbers, goosestepping around. In my entire life I have NEVER met a Nazi or a Klansman, yet now we are led to believe they are epidemic.

And they are total fools, provocing such pushback. Why be so foolish as to publicly act when you have your man pushing things forward? Well, these people aren't too bright. But then, that is precisely what the Left believes, and if they were to create a false flag attack that is exactly the optics they would employ; stupid toothless hillbillies playing at racism and fascism. It fairly reeks of Barack obama's "bitter clingers" comment. Leftists believe this of middle America. It's completely untrue, but a Trump voter must be a moron or he would never have considered voting for the man. Why would anyone in their right minds want to bring back jobs to America, reduce the flood of immigrants, stop bowing and scraping to Mullahs and marxists? That is so not enlightened! Now pass me the appletini and brie...

And what other things has this done? There is a huge push to get Steve Bannon, the most conservative member of Trump's inner circle, sacked. Dr. Gorka too. This is the old trick used against Nixon, where they hounded Nixon's people and got him to remove his strongest supposrters at a time when he needed them most. Once Spiro Agnew was gone they had Nixon by the short hairs because they could happily put Gerald Ford in office knowing he would lose the next election, an impotent President. They tried this with Reagan too, going after people like James Watts.

This whole thing stinks to high heaven, and any conservative who buys into any of this is a fool. We cannot back down an inch here. I heard Hugh Hewitt on his radio show condemning Trump not for what he said but for the optics; Hewitt says Trump should have gone ahead and condemned the "alt right" side alone. That is the way to doom, because the left will be emboldened and it simply won't be enough. They will demand scalps. Hewitt, I fear, reflects a lot of good conservatives who simply don't understand the nature of this fight. We are no longer in a disagreement. We are now in a cold war that is rapidly heating up. And we are not going to be able to compromise, because these people want a revolution and will settle for nothing less. They thougth Hillary would give them the final victory, and they are livid at that failure and are ready to take what they want by force.

This may well have been the first shot in America's second civil war. How ironic it should start over a civil war statue.
