It’s Almost Cute That They Think They’re Virtuous

Quote of the Day

Again, yes the #MAGATs have all the guns. But #CivilWar2 ain’t gonna go they way they think it will. Because their enemy has al the brains. All the virtue. All the cities. And more troops than they’ve ever fucking seen.

Matt Walton claims to be successful in life: Matt Walton – IMDb as an actor, writer, producer, director, “spokesguy”, and president of Ava Greyson Productions with a 1.5 million dollar house. Yet, he says something this stupid. What sort of alternate reality is he living in?

From the same X thread:

Yes, brains and brilliance would believe that smarts would win over guns!! 😆😆

The first american civil war was republicans vs democrats to take away democrat slaves.

Civil War 2 will be republicans vs democrats to take away their illegal immigrant laborers.

Nothing has changed.

The two useful things I did get from Walton’s post is that he and his tribe view gun owners as their enemy and he considers the U.S. in a state of civil war. That will guide their actions. Prepare appropriately.

But I suspect this is the most insightful:

It’s almost cute that they think they’re virtuous. That really is what this is all about: their obsessive need to faux virtue-signal.

It is as if they “know” their enemy is evil. Therefore, if they do/say something opposite of their enemy then it must be good. Their enemy could be arresting murderers and rapists and because they “know” their enemy is always evil, they are on the side of the violent criminals.

  1. The last CW was “democrats and republicans”.
    I’m still of the mind that this one is going to be “cowboys and communist”
    In truth republicans still want democracy. And conservatives have never conserved anything.
    And most of the communists are only in it for the money. (But they are kind of putting up a fight. Mostly political.)
    And none of them understand what it’s truly like to get their ass kicked in a war.
    The cowboy spirit built America. It’s the only thing that can survive here.
    And once again to Matt and all his bitchy friends.
    “You got the talk’in part done.”

    • And it amazes that the density of cognitive dissonance present there doesn’t cause their brains to collapse into microscopic black holes and take their ilk with it!

  2. Never underestimate the enemy. The Bolsheviks were ridiculous even compared to the other leftists, yet they won.

  4. “All the cities” *giggle snort*

    When the countryside cuts their water, power, and food… the cities will destroy themselves in a week.

    Now I understand all the grift, graft, and fraud; they’re too stupid to survive otherwise.

      • Yup.
        Also one of my favorite Matt Bracken quotes to fit this situation in spades.
        “A PLAN to ride the tiger is completely different than actually riding one.”

  5. I assume Matt Walton lives in Los Angeles. A one and a half million dollar home in that party of LA where most of the movie people live isn’t much better than a pup tent.

  6. If it ever does kick off, it will be interesting to observe two things:

    1) How quickly the Left realizes “it ain’t working out for us” and;
    2) The willingness for the Right to press on to conclusion* regardless of the Left’s whining, begging and claims of “change of heart.”

    * “Conclusion” means “blindlingly obvious need for total unconditional surrender with irreversible terms, all the way down to below the bottom of the ranks” not the “olly, olly in free” crap politicians are so good at. Japan, belatedly, figured out that what little semi-functional rubble they had was headed for vaporization if they didn’t fold. March 9-10 1945 had 279 B-29s incinerating 16 square miles of Tokyo; given the effectiveness of one bomb (twice), and that the U.S. had 400 B-29s at its disposal, the idea of one plane/one bomb/one city carried some rather convincing weight.

    I am convinced that success over the American Left will require a modern day version of that March 9-10 Tokyo raid, probably not involving building structures but certainly involving social structures and people. (The Real Challenge (TM) will not be the initial kinetic success but the long term, permanent resolution of the mental and social conditioning that allowed creation of the problem in the first place and will promote the resurrection of it .)

  7. The US has been in a Civil War since at least Obummer’s term. Thank goodness its been basically civil/cold with occasional skirmishes like the Left’s “peaceful protests” in MN, Seattle, Portland…
    Will Sharia Law be the accelerant that how the game?

    • Not sure about sharia law.
      But with the communist muslim running NYC?
      It seems were still under attack by the Barbary pirates.
      I believe we will have to revisit the Marine corps anthem again.
      “From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli”, thing.
      Except this time we won’t have to go as far to find the fight.

  8. If they had half the brains and virtue they thought they had, Hollyweird would not be tanking so hard, so repeatedly, as they are observably doing. Everything they keep touching turns to shit.

    Yes, we are headed for interesting times. Here in WA state they are pushing a whole string of new gun control bills, an income tax, and more new stupid regulations that I can shake a stick at. If nothing changes dramatically by this next election (like an end to all-mail-in-ballot-fraud with the Feds requiring and enforcing one person, with ID, to cast one ballot on election day), I’m going to need to accelerate my move out of the state significantly, so I can get out before the Big Crash ™. [that’s where the state gov’t does something so stupid that MSFT, AMZN, or BOE totally pull out of the state, leading to a budget crisis and housing prices cratering]

  9. It is as if they “know” their enemy is evil. Therefore, if they do/say something opposite of their enemy then it must be good. Their enemy could be arresting murderers and rapists and because they “know” their enemy is always evil, they are on the side of the violent criminals.

    I’ve said before that setting oneself as being against everything [someone else] stands for is one of the dumbest things one could do; they’re basically letting their opponents control their opinions.

    As applied, the prevalence of TDS and knee-jerk opposition to anything President Trump says, means that Trump controls their opinions and position on anything and everything.

    As such, Trump could get every hard-core Democrat and Leftist working to support his agenda by simply implying that he thinks what he wants is a terrible idea or that what he opposes is a great one. He could get Leftist-run cities to fully fund their police (IOW, permanently end “Defund the Police”, which is one of the Left’s ideological cornerstones) by saying that local police can’t do the job and the feds need to step in to replace them. They’ll fund the police just to keep Trump Administration feds out!

    The Left is literally and openly supporting violent criminals, human traffickers, pedophiles, systemic entitlement fraud, and theological dictatorships that actually hate them. Read that again. They didn’t engage in this hard-core level of activism before Trump started opposing and cracking down on those things.

    I firmly believe Trump could direct their actions by telling them to do the opposite of what he wants them to do, and I believe many/most of them are so blinded by TDS-fueled hate that they won’t see it coming.
