So there I was, pondering this whole screwed up mess, and a “shower thought” occurred to me and kept floating around in my head, begging to be expanded upon. So as composed in a single sitting, these are my thoughts:

As I explained it to my children, this is their generation’s “Cuban Missile Crisis”.

Never since the 60’s have we been closer to a major societal disaster, one that would take many generations to recover from (if at all), than we are at right now.

While much of the country that obtains their news and media from controlled sources (CNN, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, even Fox News) and are thus oblivious to this, more than enough of us on the “right” have been shown, beyond any reasonable doubt, that the American election system has been deeply and irrevocably compromised. That victors can be pre-determined, and your vote effectively means nothing apart from possible validation for the pre-selected victor.

What has been seen, cannot be unseen. Pandoras box has been opened, and the only thing now is to decide what to do. But the legal process is just beginning.

So we watch

Notice that despite the “right” owning more guns than the population of the country, no buildings have been burned. No cars set alight, and no elderly people beaten. Unlike our liberal counterparts, we’ve not thrown explosives at innocent people, stabbed opposition members with knives, or ganged up upon and beaten isolated opposition members. We’ve not looted stores, stalked and shot opposition supporters in the back of the head, nor done anything more than fly flags, and voice opinions. We have families, we have jobs, we have homes. In short, we have more to lose and are thus more peaceful by nature. We will let the legal process play out… praying that justice will be done.

So we watch.

Because we know if this goes unchecked, a politician going against the wishes of the masses will no longer be able to be peacefully removed through the ballot box. No longer can we "vote for change". We will effectively be no different than Russia, China, or North Korea in terms of political control by the people. Full oppressive tyranny will follow.

Tyranny is impatient, especially once it smells victory. Already we’ve all seen and experienced communication among the masses being restricted. Free speech “Fact checked” or declared "hate speech", and opinions (and facts) suppressed if it goes against the desired group thought. We’ve seen the careers, businesses, and homes destroyed of those that go against the desired “tolerant” thought and dared express different opinions. We’ve seen textbook, explicit, fascist behavior by the “anti-fascist” enforcement arm of the Democratic Party, destroying cities, homes, and lives. And we’ve seen a parade of atrocities go unpunished by our two tiered justice system, holding the elite (and leftists) among us to vastly different standards. If unchecked, we know what’s coming will be far far worse.

So we watch.

The main stream media, social media, the Hollywood establishment, and virtually the whole of Washington DC have aligned to wrestle the power from the people and anoint their desired candidates to restore “the order of things” and their power structure. They’ve made their move, and boy was it was a doozy... But they underestimated just how fed up the public is with them, and just how much love and support their enemy had. They got greedy, overplayed their hand and overextended, causing the curtain to move when they stumbled, exposing the machine behind the scenes.

We saw. We watched.

Still, the left projects, and in doing so they genuinely expected the vast majority of our side to ignore that which we glimpsed. To fall in line and accept the “outcome” they told us was “decided”. Particularly when Fox News (which they assume controls our thoughts just as CNN and the New York Times dictates much of theirs) fell in line telling us the election was “fair”, and it was “all over with”, we watched, we knew.

They were genuinely dismayed to find that we still possess the capacity of independent thought that they’ve spent a generation "educating" out of our children… that we are not beholden to a media voice telling us what to think and how to feel. We’ve seen the truth, and unexpectedly, firmly, legally, we've pushed back.

And we watch.

We will give the system a chance, after all, we’re peacefully fighting to preserve and improve that very system. We love our country, and seek to preserve the 244 year old experiment that has resulted in the strongest most powerful and amazing country in the world.

But we are rapidly approaching the metaphorical “fork in the river” at which point a path will be chosen, a path from which we can’t return.

We will see how the legal challenges play out.

We will quietly and peacefully watch. But, beware the wrath of a quiet, peaceful men.
