I think the real difference lies in the fact there are so many who will not lay down willingly like so many of the Nazi's victims did, if that time ever comes here.

Pick up "In the Garden of Beasts" by Erik Larson if you want to gain more insight into Pre WWII Germany and the power plays and maneuvering for supremacy. The book is written through the eyes of William Dodd, US Ambassador to Germany.

I don't know, they were indoctrinated from birth, reprogrammed as adults. I could definitely see it happening

As I reflect, this is all Mao Cultural Revolution, since as far back as Obama, when BLM for instance started. I look at the Democrats in power no longer as Bolsheviks in the Lenin sense, but as Maoists in the Mao sense.

The closest thing the republican side had in this actual fight in the streets were the proud boys I guess. The republicans have no SA or SS. The democrats mobilized useful idiots like BLM and ANTIFA.

With Antifa getting nuked from Twitter for the Seattle and Portland antics, I wonder if Antifa is about to be exiled to the farms, and have their city living permits revoked?

With critical theory about to go live again, and perhaps worse, aspects of the cultural revolution of Mao are still in queue for us.

Last night Seattle had yet another flag burning, spray painting, vandalizing, widow breaking protest. However, police made arrests and the mayor met with small business owners.
You see, this time they smashed the original Starbucks! In reality they hit the main tourist area. Pike Place Market is normally fill with tourists year rounds. To have a protest there threatens revenue. Worse, Seattle takes its coffee seriously. The original Starbucks is always mobbed, and a “must see” visit. The protestors may have overstepped.

Having spent the equivalent of a couple years in country in China over the past decade, I see the similarities.

I've watched the CCTV news and seen how the propaganda is disseminated. The only western news is CNN International and BBC and both are anti-Patriot. CNN gets blacked out whenever they show or say something the Chinese government doesn't like. The internet is filtered and blocked. No social media other than Chinese gov't approved ones, that are monitored and censored. The trolls that remind everyone that freedom is not being free, that free speech is dangerous and irresponsible, that individuals are less than the collective, that Americans are "selfish" about their individual rights.

No one I know with education really believes it all, they know it's propaganda and lies, but it does get under their skin and affect how they think. And they dare not say much where the gov't might hear them.

Mao destroyed the traditional religions, the history, the great men of the past. He attacked China's rich history and culture. His central management made disastrous mistakes and caused massive overpopulation and then famine that killed tens of millions. Yet he is revered as the savior, his image is everywhere, and on the currency. Tiananmen Square never happened according to the history books. And those that lived near it (rich people) insist the protestors were violent and killed soldiers before the tanks rolled over them.

There is a huge wealth and income gap between the common people and the rich who benefit from being party insiders and getting favored dealings from the government. The rich flaunt it and make the commoners wish only to be rich as well.

China has shown you can have a one party government, crush all dissent, but still have a thriving economy, or one that appears to be so until the house of cards comes crashing down.

Now that they served their purpose and Biden is in office, I expect law enforcement to finally be allowed to take care of the problem. They are a liability if they talk and say who funded them, so better to clamp down and discredit them fast.

This is exactly what I was thinking. The governors can’t have unrest now that the democrats won.

Or they will protest the democrats enough to "prove" that Antifa is non-political and just bent on anarchy and mayhem and were not funded and in collusion with democrats prior to the election. Some of that plausible deniability that Biden is so fond of.

Excellent thoughts, Lefty Sig, short and to the point.

Of course, now that they are protesting a leftist government, their actions are being branded unlawful assemblies. Who'd have guessed that would happen?

And now Twatter and FB are removing their pages for "fomenting violence"

The progs consider these rioters useful idiots and now they are no longer needed....at least until they need to use them for intimidation again.

as one who likes coffee, I say give those protestors a medal for getting rid of a Starbucks....

not a huge loss in the scheme of things

Oh-ho-ho-hooo! OK, Zuckerberg, what are you going to do when you're the only one on your side? Besides be gracious about having to kiss the Section 230 protections goodbye? Methinks Anqueefa isn't the only weapon the Dems helped forge and then polished that they'll now need to fear will be used against them in upcoming elections!

But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the Dems actually believe that freedom is best served by the existence of multiple autonomous power bases in society. And maybe pigs will fly without mechanical assistance...

A large group of leftist trash attacked a police car in Tacoma last night and the officer had no choice but to plow through the crowd or die.

From the "play stupid games" file, this shows several different angles.

Fixed it for you! The whining has already started for the poor babies that may have been injured and fingers are already pointing at a cop with the wherewithal and will to survive. Darwin was right and these idiots have no business contributing to the gene pool if they place more value on mob rule than the rule of law. No tears from me.

The idiot that was flattened still had the cell phone/camera in his hand. The last video (^^^) in my post shows it best.
The narrative from the leftist/MSM says the cop "drove through the crowd". That will likely be the party line whenever this crap happens until they caught or until one of their on scene propagandists gets caught in a similar situation and the police can't help them.

Darwinism is strong in WA.
