I may have a downvote fairy or a few: some childish smooth-brained soyboy bernout still upset about the refunds with xir panties in a wad. There are so many of them on this board as of late...
But who knows, it's unimportant, what's important is the message getting to anyone who really needs to hear it, even twenty years after it's been issued.
Despite the imagery, it was not a call to violence.
It is true, there are many people who do not do anything but talk.
I had a conversation with someone about Jan 6th. She told me that she was going to go, but had a bad feeling so decided not to. She then spent the better part of 15 minutes telling me how she would have single handedly stopped the people from breaking into the Capitol.
I have no respect for her. I would never trust her at my back. If you have a bad feeling, bring friends.
You do not decide not to support your country by hiding and then loudly proclaiming what you would have done.
"Here, too, the example of enemy war propaganda was typical; limited to a few points, devised exclusively for the masses, carried on with indefatigable persistence. Once the basic ideas and methods of execution were recognized as correct, they were applied throughout the whole War without the slightest change. At first the claims of the propaganda were so impudent that people thought it insane; later, it got on people's nerves; and in the end, it was believed. After four and a half years, a revolution broke out in Germany; and its slogans originated in the enemy's war propaganda."
This is everywhere in our country.
As much as we mock, ridicule, and fight back... were are losing the language battle.
We let the left determine what we call ourselves and our causes.
Jan 6th is a good example of that.
Dems decided that it was a riot, that it was insurrection.
Most people just went with it. Some did so mockingly... but the more something is said, even in mockery, the easier it is to repeat. Eventually it just becomes its own version of accepted reality, no matter the actual events.
We are just really bad at taking back our words, our language. People are too afraid of losing their friends, family, jobs, reputation... so we sacrifice our voice. We lose our reality. By allowing that, by giving up the truth, we will eventually lose everything that we are trying to hold on to anyway.

I do hope though there is a peaceful way...

There are many approaches, this could be one. Wartime agitprop is a very vast topic: http://www.mondopolitico.com/library/meinkampf/v1c6.htm

Precisely. And there is but one single left solution to it all.
