I'm reminded of the protests in Iran where hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets said they weren't going to take it anymore. Then suddenly, it fizzled because they were unwilling to do anything beyond that. All "Kiss Kiss", but no "Bang Bang". Another culture clearly the victim of western peacenik assholes who claim that violence is unnecessary to facilitate improvement. OF COURSE France--one of the countries from which that mindset originates--is going follow the same cycle as Iran.


Yes, exactly.
All for the cameras, with no substantial real opposition.
It somehow reminds me of State Department official Jen Psaki, hash-tag tweeting her protests to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Guns and ammunition might make the point more strongly.

What makes it worse is that Hamas and Hezbollah apparently has the more liberal commentators fooled--no difficult task there--after speaking out against the attack. Every time I hear the phrase, "Once you've lost [BLANK], you've definitely lost the [BLANK]," my eyes roll of their own volition. I'm sure there's a name for that kind of argument, I just don't know what it is.

Recycling the "actions of the few" and "no true Muslim" tunes is a textbook KGB disinformation tactic designed to divide your enemies.

Protests don't accomplish shit.


The name for it is cultural Marxism.

A coalition of the media, the far-Left, and aggrieved minorities, stoking white guilt for alleged atrocities of the past, to undermine nationalism and belief in capitalist Western culture, undermining it, indoctrinating a shame in our culture so it will be undefended by the new generation, and undefended will be replaced by the new (at least temporary) socialist order.

Muslims are not communists, but they serve their purpose as an ally in the revolution stage.

Does it really surprise you at this point when the media sides with the enemy?
