This is the biggest problem of the conservative movement. Absolutely no ideas for the future, except the return to the past. Oh, and the ludicrous notion that a bunch of middle-aged, white, male slave-owners 250 years ago had some sort of font of knowledge and wisdom unavailable to anyone today.
This is the stupidest comment in JazzFanz history. . . . take one stone-cold truth in the first sentence, and combine it with an absolutely arrogant slur in the second, and then utilize agism, racism, and a half-truth with an uncomprehending prejudice against people who lived long ago, and conclude with an absolute falsehood.
Well, I suppose I shouldn't expect a Canadian to be particularly fond of the former colonies or their leaders who set up a competitive response to the British Empire that lasted. . . . well. . . . through two wars where Canadian's assisted the British against the States. But what has the Canadian school system come to, with teachers like you?
The British followed up on the failed wars with an economic strategy of building up connections with American-based businesses and banks, and then gave financial support to both Abolitionists and Secessionists in the States in a deliberate program to apply Machiavellian principles to divide the States. In the aftermath, the bankers and financial interests launched a massive take-over of America through the age of the Robber Barons, the various cartels like railroads, mining, coal, steel. . . .and oil. . . and while the principals were American natives, they indeed had British investment and banking behind them, and they did indeed return the United States to the kind of government we had when the British Far East Trading Company could manipulate the British government in their own interests.
A few religious zealots were responsible for organizing the "No Sugar In My Tea" campaign that ended the British slave trade. . . . and yes it was the British who imported most of the slaves to America. . . . but the abolition of slavery was achieved by British "Tea-Partiers", and the same principles and strategies could have ended slavery in America as well, if not for British meddling.
Today, the "Council of Foreign Relations" is to a significant extent actually the British management agency wherein the British elitists have succeeded in re-establishing influence in the United States. Cecil Rhodes, the racist white supremacist, conceived the idea of the Anglo-American world dominance strategy which is in place today.
The ideals of human rights, absolute notions of the human creature deserving fundamental liberties. . . . actually came from England because the Brit nobles were pretty brutal against the ordinary people. . . . enough so that people fought the Lords to a standstill and forced the nobles to recognize some fundamental rights. . . . The Magna Carta is one of the source streams of the principles which Americans took up and defended against the British elitists once again. The American colonies were singled out for specific denials of rights once held sacred in British law. . . .and that is why Americans rebelled.
And yep, a lot of people, Tories, didn't care to fight. A significant number of colonists and most of Indian tribes that traded with the British actually joined the British in the effort to suppress the American patriots. . . and a significant number of them went to Canada, both during the war and afterwards. . . .
The ideals of human liberty and government responsive to the ordinary people is still a better idea than fascism. And always will be.
What the politicians of the United States are faced with today is a rebirth of freedom driven by excessive government intrusion into personal lives, obliteration of basic human rights, and encroaching fascism displacing everything that once was good about the United States. This will be the wave of the future. Fascism is the past. . . communism is the past. . . . false flag "progressive" is the past.
There is no good reason why people should accept abuse from overseers and overlords. We will not be slaves again, sir.
