@dcjogger I've always been an In-N-Out fan, but this is a new level. Love it!
The collapse of the USA is shocking. How can Americans sleep now?
What should Americans do? What will happen? How do you prepare? How do you resist tyranny?
We have four boxes with which to defend our freedom: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box. Americans are running out of options. The elites have taken control of the government, media, and the corporations. The 1% will not stop until everyone is enslaved or dead.
The US, like China, is a police state where no one has rights and anyone can be tortured, arrested, killed, or have their property stolen by the state at any time. Most people prefer to ignore it and pretend everything is fine, though.
Americans are too lazy and scared to protest, but even if 10 million Americans protested in Washington, our overlords would use water cannons, tear gas, torture, guns, and prisons to crush it.
Americans could use guerrilla warfare and snipers to attack the government and elites, but the government could use the guns, fighter jets, helicopters, drones, aircraft carriers, tanks, and nuclear bombs that the American taxpayers paid for against the rebels. Americans, like the Soviets, could just give up, drop out, pretend to work, stop paying taxes, and start disobeying the law and the whole rigged system could collapse.
Another option to escape tyranny as conditions worsen is for Americans to just lay low, become stateless and nameless, and wander the world as nomads.
Part of the reason Americans are not resisting now is that they are defeated, degraded, divided, and distracted. Why go out and risk getting arrested and killed fighting tyranny when they have weed, beer, food stamps, A/C, and TV? Young people donât care about freedom because they think living in a police state is normal and old people donât care because they will be dead soon. Only middle-aged people who know what freedom was like and might be still alive for another 30-40 years seem to care.
The USA has crossed the line, but knowing when the revolution starts is difficult because the growth of the police state has been gradual.
Until the government closes churches or burns books, or you get beaten by the police or your friend is shot by the FBI, Americans may not really believe that they live in a police state.
The ruling class and the media have studied history well and have slowly chipped away freedom over the past 50 years. The media plays Americans like a fiddle. The elites can manipulate Americans to give up their freedom easily.
All the government needs to do to get Americans to give up their guns is to use a real or staged shooting and non-stop 24/7 news coverage about the dangers of guns and play slanted stories about the success of gun laws in Australia or Japan to get Americans to register their guns this year and then use another shooting next year to convince Americans to accept gun confiscation and microchip implants.
If the elites want to make Americans give up their freedom then they take the worst case and use endless stories maximizing the dangers of a tragedy and minimizing and ignoring the arguments for liberty.
If the 1% wants all men to register as sex offenders, the media will use a horrifying story about a white man who raped and killed a 7 year old girl.
The ruling class can print any amount of money to fund high salaries or give benefits to pay cops and soldiers to arrest or fire on Americans. The elites can lower standards so that low IQ people, felons, illegal immigrants, and tattooed people can join the military or become police officers. The 1% can use the UN to round up Americans if they canât recruit enough cops and soldiers.
The media may soon use stories about mandatory Ebola quarantines or a Russian invasion to brainwash Americans to go to government concentration camps willingly.
The water and electricity still works and government checks are still good now, but when the US Ponzi economy crashes, riots break out, food runs out, and a civil war and WWIII starts, Americans will wish that they had planned and prepared better.
Americans need to be like the founding fathers now and do everything they can to fight for freedom. Nothing is more important than freedom. Everyone is born for a reason.

The US economy will collapse and Americans will go to the concentration camps, the question is when?
Those who do not learn from the mistakes of history are doomed to repeat them.

@dcjogger I think you are overstating the case. Among the progressive left your prediction of collapse is evident but as I see it between the coasts their is enough sensitivity, support, and power to reverse the neo marxi st trend. Trump believes this too.
Guns aren't protecting freedom if the US is no longer a democracy and is a police state.
If there is another Columbine or Las
Vegas shooting, guns will be banned.
Once the stock market crashes, the elites will use a real crisis or a false flag like Russia or Ebola to get Americans to go to the concentration camps willingly.
The media, newspapers, magazines, and movies are constantly brainwashing Americans to accept Communism.
Can't patriots start websites, radio stations, newspapers, magazines, and make films praising morality, freedom, balanced budgets, and peace?

What's the alternative? Surrender? Are Americans just supposed to go to the concentration camps quietly?
WTF?

To reduce a complex argument to its bare bones, since the Depression, the twin forces of managed democracy and Superpower have opened the way for something new under the sun: âinverted totalitarianism,â a form every bit as totalistic as the classical version but one based on internalized co-optation, the appearance of freedom, political disengagement rather than mass mobilization, and relying more on âprivate mediaâ than on public agencies to disseminate propaganda that reinforces the official version of events.
It is inverted because it does not require the use of coercion, police power and a messianic ideology as in the Nazi, Fascist and Stalinist versions (although note that the United States has the highest percentage of its citizens in prison â 751 per 100,000 people â of any nation on Earth). According to Wolin, inverted totalitarianism has âemerged imperceptibly, unpremeditatedly, and in seeming unbroken continuity with the nationâs political traditions.â
The main objectives of managed democracy are to increase the profits of large corporations, dismantle the institutions of social democracy (Social Security, unions, welfare, public health services, public housing and so forth), and roll back the social and political ideals of the New Deal. Its primary tool is privatization and deregulation.
