Weekly Explosions Vol 6: A warning for my friends on the left

I saw this comment in response to the question "Do you think it's possible for the US to change?" went unchallenged this week

"Not without intense violence first. For that to happen our current leadership would have to be killed. The President, the Cabinet, the Senate, Supreme Court, loads of corporate executives, and loads of pigs, etc."

The comment was made on a left wing site (self described as "A community of leftist privacy and FOSS enthusiasts").

My message to my friends on the left who let that comment pass is to wake up and start thinking. This is who this person is talking about killing:

• The President - Joe Biden, Leftist Democrat
• The Cabinet - a bunch of committed Leftists
• The Supreme Court - a third are committed leftists and another third are wobbly at best
• Corporate Executives - Big corporations actively support leftist causes like BLM, Critical Race Theory, etc.
• and they will not stop there - they will keep dividing and killing

Don't you get it - it is the people on the left that they want to kill. When the revolution comes - it is the people on the left that will compete with them for power and influence - which is why they must be killed.

You may say it won't effect me, I do not plan to be that powerful or influential. But it will. You see they break it down to your local communities and neighborhoods. It will be a neighbor or another school Mom who perceives you as a threat to their desired power and influence. This killing ends up reaching all levels of society.

The people on the right may be their enemy, but once defeated, they will be oppressed. But the true blood letting will be saved for their competitors on the left, the people who they see as threats to their power and influence within the regime.

This does not end in a good place. This week I added links to the Genocide community as this is the logical conclusion of the path comments like these lead us to. Have a look at them - remind yourself what happened in Rwanda, Cambodia, etc. Learn the history and course of the conflict that led to those atrocities.

If the revolution comes and unfolds the way described, obviously a lot of people will try and flee the country - which will leave them vulnerable to Human Trafficking. You may barely give the victims of Human Trafficking a second thought, but they suffer terribly. So this week I also updated the links in the Human Trafficking community so you can refresh your memory as to the horrors that will face so many people fleeing the revolution - especially the poor and working class.

If you think you will be ok because you are down with the revolution - then I encourage you to read Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China which is about:

"An engrossing record of Mao’s impact on China, an unusual window on the female experience in the modern world, and an inspiring tale of courage and love, Jung Chang describes the extraordinary lives and experiences of her family members: her grandmother, a warlord’s concubine; her mother’s struggles as a young idealistic Communist; and her parents’ experience as members of the Communist elite and their ordeal during the Cultural Revolution.

Chang was a Red Guard briefly at the age of fourteen, then worked as a peasant, a “barefoot doctor,” a steelworker, and an electrician. As the story of each generation unfolds, Chang captures in gripping, moving—and ultimately uplifting—detail the cycles of violent drama visited on her own family and millions of others caught in the whirlwind of history."

Wild Swans is both one of the best books I have ever read and also one of the scariest. If your politics lie on the left, then you owe it to yourself to read it.

Finally I say this to you - lets all step back from the brink. There are better ways to solve our problems and resolve our differences. Lets find them.
