I'm so freaking tired of you, home experts in politics

Yes, but, if the prevailing "Matrix" is falling apart, with Trump as nothing but a catalyst (personally, while he might have good instincts, he's not the sharpest tool in the shed) - then that's a HOT topic for endless discussion..

Everything up in the air now and out of everyone's control, and no one knows what's really going on, which also means that it's all up for grabs and God knows there's an absolute vacuum of leadership, and by that I mean true and authentic Leadership, which isn't really partisan at all.

I blame the left AND the right wing establishment and the whole miserable lot of them, but to see the politicization of the MSM and the deep state, all in total panic mode, that's a telltale sign that the pressure is being put where it ought to be, when the government (and establishment "ruling elite class") begins to fear the people and the will of the people, instead of the other way around, which was the direction that it was going.

One whole worldview and narrative or matrix, is falling apart, while another one is just waiting in the wings, to be born or reborn anew.

For all we know, some member of ATS or some from among it's readership, will arise - who are prepared to DO something about it and begin the process of coming to power in every sphere of influence using every non-violent means and resource available to us, while throwing all the pirates off the ship, and it's true that a collectivist society built around MSM and media culture and celebrity, is the enemy.

This is a culture war and an info war, and it's very important, even powerful, where it may be said that there's nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come.


So with all due respect, I disagree, because politics in it's purest form is relevant, while the current leadership and establishment, are not, and need to be replaced.

We have to talk about it, but in a way that's balanced and rational and that begins with certain fundamental principals and precepts upon which we can all or most of us, absolutely agree, like individual Liberty, self determination and intrinsic rights and freedoms including the freedom of expression and everything that's enshrined in the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Best regards, and may God bless the United States of America (the idea) and the American people, individually.

Ankh

“The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
~ Mathew 9:37-38

Mere opinions are a dime a dozen, but for every thousand that are hacking away at the leaves of the bad tree (of evil), there are always one or more that are capable of laying an axe to its root.

To suggest that the little man has no sway, no power or influence and not latent, untapped performance potential, and should thereof just STFU, is certainly not part of the solution to our common problem, and neither is the answer Nancy Pelosi or Donald Trump.

We are the power, and it must be permitted to speak and to take action, politically and socio-economically in pursuit of everyone's enlightened mutual best interest.

We need more workers working the harvest field amid a total gap and vacuum in leadership with the blind leading the blind into a ditch.

Power for the sake of power instead of empowerment is in the process of losing it's grip on power, and that's a very good thing.

What do we DO now, is the question that we should all be asking ourselves, what CAN we DO, in whatever way, however big or small, however fast or slowly, to help bring about transformative change and a revolution, a movement, a quickening, a revival, a restoration?

This.

It's not Trump the elite fear. It's that Trump empowers the people to fight back against the vitriol and hate that has been steadily dispensed for the past 8 years against those who would dare to offend the spineless and mindless socialists the left has created.

a reply to: Outlier13

No, it's the other way around. Trump is nothing without his supporters who empowered him and continue to do so.

a reply to: AnkhMorpork

They are both one in the same. One cannot exist without the other. No man can have any power unless those who follow and believe in that leader. Conversely no leader can empower followers unless they have the ability to do so. It's a symbiotic relationship. Combined together it creates the fear in the elite.

LOL @ drawing parallels between the founding fathers and the people here parroting politics like they grasp anything going on from the microcosm of their lives and the limited time they finally started to pay attention.

Its a safety valve...if people cant come here and bitch...they might actually go in the streets and protest.

Give the slobs a place to go or they might just change things?
