The ANTIFA / ALT-RIGHT Distraction: Is the state trying to plunge America into civil war?
It may sound like an extreme hypothesis to some,
but with the mainstream media's relentless and endless cartoon sensationalization of the recent protests in Charlottesville, VA, and the sad and sorry state of "libertarianism" these days (many individuals previously of seemingly sound mind defecting and joining forces with white nationalist movements and neo-nazis thanks in large part to MSM propaganda) it really doesn't seem that far-fetched.
You know what, though? More than an attempt to plunge the whole of America's populace into a civil war (which I believe this fear campaign is, in part) it is, like most things ramped up and shouted by the ever obnoxious media, a big distraction.
REMEMBER SYRIA?
EBOLA?
GRAB 'EM BY THE PUSSY?
HILLARY'S EMAILS?
NORTH KOREA?
Where have all these "HUGE STORIES!" gone?
A distraction from what?
Well, from people continuing their evolution and abandoning/rejecting/defecting from the state. People are "waking up" faster than ever. It's exponential. We've had enough of the bullshit, and the collective consciousness, though laggy, is catching up.
The internet is spreading the ideas and philosophies of freedom like wildfire. I cannot imagine ten years ago talking to anyone about anarchy. Now there are thousands of us. And thousands upon thousands of "sleeping anarchists" just on the verge of jumping out of bed, and joining "the force."
What better time to make all these almost awakened individuals (and some already there) drunk on the stupor of blind prejudice? Forget the state! Kill the black guy! Forget the state, kill these fucking white people! Build muh border wall! Kill muh "Nazis!" Both ANTIFA and the "Alt-Right" are two sides of the same shitty, anti-liberty coin. Ultimately, they are two brands of Socialism.
Meanwhile, the individuals at the top sit back and say "Eeeeexxxxelllent."
If we are all turned against one another, we cannot focus on the true enemy. The state.
Why would the state want a civil war? Well, isn't that just the prettiest excuse to legislate more control and create an even more oppressive police state and control grid? Of course it is.

Also, yes I am on a roll...It makes me sad when I hear comments against the US from people living in other countries. They hear our "elected" leaders and our "esteemed" news reporters spewing rehearsed lines that do not reflect the views and opinions of 90% of the American people. I wish that each of them could sit down at a dinner table with an "average" Midwest family of hard working people, who bust their ass every day to provide for their families. The people who would literally give their right arm to make this world better for their kids than the path that it is on now. These average people don't hate other nations or other races, they want a good life for their families and the same for others. Most are very unhappy with the US acting as the "peace keeper" of the world and being at the center of every worldwide disagreement.
I totally agree! The so-called "esteemed" journalists no longer even do the simple research before reporting the news, especially the foreign news medias who mostly get their feeds from AP and Reuters. I have many friends overseas and they have such a distorted view of how the hard working middle class American family lives and thinks. It's truly sad how much of our news organizations around the world have become a propaganda tool.
Thank you. I dont know you and propably never will but I just wanted to express my admiration about your way of thinking. Simple (not simplistic) state of facts, observation based on basic human conditions with an honest and kind intention.
While humans like you exist, there is still a chance. Keep your faith and enjoy the ride.
Thanks @flusterfive, I really appreciate that! As long as people have good values, no matter their race or nationally, I always treat them with respect and try to learn from them. I have learned over the years that if you send out good things, good people will find you. Follow that Golden Rule and ignore the haters.
As we call it in greek, its the golden ratio (φ) between the things you should do, concerning your own survival, your family's and the people you care about and the things you choose to do for the people, neighboors, society etc. In other words, provide for the people you care about and try to give to the people around you.
Everyone is having troubles already, why make them greater when you can consciously try not to?
Greetings from sunny Greece!
I think you are probably spot on. I think the last election (US Pres) was planned....I mean honestly, we are on 2 term cycles right now. Anyway....there are so many reasons the state would want this.....population control(as in, kill off 20-30%), people control, money/property grab(from all the middle people that end up standing up for liberty), etc.
It is freaking scary right now....and 10x so becausr we just moved to Detroit, and it is a powder keg waiting to go off!!
What to do??? I mean, knowing and befriending your neighbors...but more than that?
I am glad to see (heard it while at pharmacy this morning on their TV) that the DOJ is looking into investigating the groups. It's about time
20-30%? You are a little low on that number.
It is advantageous for the state to have chaos, Order out of Chaos. Both sides of these riots are state run, well corporate run. Soros is openly funding the "Antifa" group, while it has been exposed many times before the federal government leading KKK and other supremacist groups. Nice hype for the media to build their case. Freedom is bad, it allows for racism, we need order and more government to control this problem.
All they want is centralized power, every time they move it is to that end. Interesting timing here as well, maybe they really are afraid of Trump. Bailed out of the Paris Climate Accords (Carbon Taxes), Bailed on the TPP, Rolled Back Regulation, Stopped funding "Syrian Rebels", Stopped forced immigration of "Syrian Refugees" and on and on. Weather he is real or just another state produced character, prima facia lends us to believe they do not like what is being done. But again, he could be staged as well, as the catalyst to unite the collectivists and make room for civil war 2.0 to start. Thereby allowing the left to unite with foreign govts. (China) under the auspices of the U.N. to secure the U.S. Global collectivism may be near at hand.
Your first paragraph "It is advantageous for the state to have chaos, Order out of Chaos. Both sides of these riots are state run, well corporate run. Soros is openly funding the "Antifa" group, while it has been exposed many times before the federal government leading KKK and other supremacist groups. Nice hype for the media to build their case. Freedom is bad, it allows for racism, we need order and more government to control this problem." pretty much sums it up.
It is as if we are on the verge of some futuristic government that you see on the movies- a control based government.
It seems that is the way we are going. Society is in too much of a lull to even recognize where we are heading.
Good points, as usual. It is confusing to me as well, and all those things you mentioned, regarding Syria, etc, are basically pluses in my book, so yeah. Then again, the drone program is more ramped up than ever and the unconstitutional bombings (murders) continue. It certainly is chaos.
Yes, these wars that are constantly raging are unconstitutional. Where is the declaration of war or a vote from congress? An interesting point to note is that we have been under emergency war powers since the early 20th century, essentially putting the executive branch in a martial law capacity. The prez can virtually do as he wishes. Gotta love that nice old Federal Reserve system.
Damning meme.
For those who are ignorant or support AntiFa in even the slightest way, I recommend this video:
Divide and conquer, you see it being played out more and more.
I do hope you're correct about the great awakening. We thought we had one of those in the 1970s punk movement. I really believed we were gonna change the world, but instead, most of us grew up to be lawyers, politicians and CEOs.
Haha! Yes. The great CEO awakening.
Inserted chaos and then amplifying the subsequent internal strife is how our alphabet agencies have started color revolutions in many other countries. They have gotten very good at it. The societal nervous system of the internet allows for much faster productive communication and interaction, but is unavoidably accompanied by the possibility of societal seizures and hallucinations, which is essentially how a color revolution works. Paralyze the populace by stimulating the muscles on both sides, then while they are immobilized by fighting against each other, you introduce a mirage that can supposedly bring order. Which you help happen because you then stop the paralyzing stimulation.
Color revolution has now been initiated domestically, color will be purple. It's the modern day equivalent of the Roman legions crossing the Rubicon, when Rome used its military might domestically for the first time.
Except this time the Rubicon is digital.
Who benefits from wanting N.A. and Europe destabilized? The Mid-East destabilization was a no brainer but this one is a little more opaque.
The Russia/China./BRIC alliance? Islam? Or perhaps this is the long march to The Jewish Messiah?
Either one is nasty and unnecessary, IMO.....
This is also the result of 911 and the lies and duplicity of that day; I predicted at the time, that that event left uninvestigated by non-biased actors would lead to civil chaos.......
I agree though, with what you said about Socialism; this is the same card that was played in Europe mid-century--one group of Socialist's played off another.....
I think you're right on target. I live near Charlottesville and there are a lot of things about that incident that make it look like a set-up in order to get the groups to engage in violent conflict. There was VA revoking the permit, letting antifa assemble without one with no problem, kicking them out of the park before violence had begun and forcing the confrontations in the street, cops standing down, reporters saying both sides were violent then being forced to backtrack. I'm working on a post about it right now too, but I believe my home state government is just as responsible for the deaths and injuries as the clashing, hateful groups.
@kafkanarchy84 I have been saying this for quite some time. Between the racial rhetoric , the gay/straight, the bathroom rules, the sensationalism of a white cop shooting a black person (but ignoring the other cop shootings), and now the "we are gonna topple your southern statues"...I really think that the deep state is trying every excuse to start an all out national riot. An excuse to stomp in and do the smackdown, declare marshal law and impose new rules. It's hard to be the "savior" without a calamity. I think that they are seriously working from an outdated model. I have many friends from many races and nationalities. They are tolerant and understanding. If you want to see a Confederate Civil War monument, go look at it and learn history. If you don't then just pass. I am not gay, but I damn sure am not going to join an anti-gay rally, to each their own. I think the powers that be just want to stir up a large conflict, at any cost.
