Comments: "It cannot be saved"

"The heart of the beast is New York,the Ivies being its nursery and Washington its storefront." Somber read from Fred. Interesting take on Hillary,and true. And the rot will go on,no matter who wins.

The best thing anyone can do is try to carve your existence in the absence of gov't, avoid it every way that you can, because it will eventually fall under it's own overbearing weight and you don't want to be anywhere near it when that happens.

This will most likely require sacrifice but only of trivial meaningless things for the most part.

If you have an employer that steals a chunk of your money before you even get it, leave. You owe no one the efforts of your toil, and allowing criminals to steal from you makes you an accomplice.

Figure it out. Your great grandfather lived this way and so did most other people then.

This one step will give you the intellectual horsepower to take on all of the other things you'll need as you commence snapping the evil tendrils the rotten assed gov't has imprisoned you with.

Stop dreamin' and get doin'.

The myth of Authority. Government = Corruption = Force. By every definition this is tyranny.

Stop supporting the Myth and it collapses. No money, no live bodies to enforce the Myth.

Ponder this a while. And then you may be awakened as per
"ghostsniper".

Tel Aviv has nothing to do with any of this. For shame!

Nice bunch of anti-semites you linked to there, Mr. Vanderleun. I think I need to shower now. And yes, I know you were linking to the larger article regarding America's decline.

Mr Craft,may we please not kill the messenger? Fred Reed's article is tough love. Fragile people may be offended by pretty much everything he posits,which is one of the points. "We are a coddled nation." America is indeed more fragile than it looks.

Nori - I don't cotton to anti-semite bigots. I've read Reed before and I generally agree with him, but when he says Tel Aviv is one of Americas ruling cities I just have to roll my eyes. But the real slime is with the trolls in the comments section at Vox, which is really where my comment is aimed. There's nothing fragile about not tolerating loathesome bigots.

Mr. Craft, we have long passed the point where real and alleged anti-semite bigots (redundancy, much?) are the threat to discussion that the anti-racist ant-bigot industry is. The Jewish political DNA is and has been among the most destructive forces in the world for well over a century and there is no sign that this will change but every reason to think that it will not. The fact that Jews are now getting stuck with the same knife that they helped create seems to be of no consequence to them. There is more plain honesty in a simple bigot than is to be found in a roomful of anti-bigots.

If I may add my two cents' worth ....

One reason that Jews seem to catch a lot of flak is that far too many of them a century ago or so "lost their religion" but didn't lose their culture -- that is, they ceased to believe in God but still believed in the Jewish duty of "tikkun olam" (to "repair the world"). They saw the old order of kings and queens and empires perish in the two great catastrophes of WWI and WWII, and imagined that Socialism and Communism were the way to bring about a more stable and equitable order in the world.

Alas, along with their religion they also lost their sense, and forgot where the road paved with good intentions leads to.

And so we have the spectacle of the "People of the Law" advocating lawlessness and evil.

I live and work in a heavily Jewish part of suburban Baltimore. Most folks here know the score, but far too many are blindly left-ish in their politics, because they seem to think that it's "the right thing to do."

As I said, my two cents' worth.

The comments at Vox struck me as adolescent tripe,did'nt waste time on them. I believe Mr Wilson is exactly right,the Jewish political DNA is overwhelmingly liberal,and they will vote Hillary,even if it means Israel is turned to radioactive dust.

I understand peoples dislike of the progressive worldview of American jews. At times they seem to be their own worst enemies. But that's a far cry from blaming the Joooos for all the worlds ills. When Reed makes a statement including Tel Aviv as one of Americas rulers he places himself firmly in the camp of the paranoid looneys. Paranoids should be handling medications, not megaphones.

Posted by D S Craft at October 24, 2016 9:38 AM

Whatever Fred Reed may be, he is no paranoid. Taking an opportunity to broaden his targets and get under the skin of the pearl clutchers is sport.

When Jews, like Muslims, actually wish to not be blamed for the wreckage their politics create, they can beat back their own loud and clear. Until that day they can't get enough shit piled upon them. We know to a sorry fact that reason doesn't work.
