    So the world is cruambling around us. All starting with Bidens weakness on EVERY SINGLE ISSUE. The man is a true CF.
    All who voted for him happy now? I mean he even managed to help the destructution of Canada. Have no doubt he egged their little dictator on. He and the Dems finished the map forward for him.

    Here is why it looks like the world is falling apart .. it is all planned ... people need to wake up to what is going on, many would rather deny what is happening, same as what happened in the 1930's and the rise of Hitler ... many live with their heads buried up their Dupa, others are all for the chaos ....


    It can’t be a coincidence that so many things have gone so wrong in so little time.
    We see the Biden Administration doing a national level of what Socialist Sociologists Cloward & Piven did to New York City – setting impossible demands, structurally and financially, on its welfare system to overload it.

    In short, to create Chaos.




    Liberalism thrives on chaos. As long as there is chaos, Liberals can claim to be the solution, regardless whether they themselves are the cause of the chaos. Chaos makes individuals feel they need something stronger than themselves and Collectivists then offer the ruse of order at the price of individual freedoms. – Liberal Logic 101

    The Left has effectively politicized everything – thus, there are no traditional norms to act as bulwarks against their actions and machinations. They are hoping (and depending on) that Society is now in such a state of being that it is like glass: strong vertically but with sufficient force, applied from the side and with a sharp blow, it will shatter.

    They are creating the problem and have their solutions waiting in the wings. This is the Hegelian Dialectic:

    Hegelian dialectic is ‘PROBLEM-REACTION-SOLUTION’ and how it works is like this:




      • The government creates or exploits a problem in which attributes blame to others.
      • The people react by asking the govt for protection and help (safety and security) to help solve the problem.
      • Then, the government offers the solution that was planned by them long before the crisis occurred.
    What’s the outcome? The outcome of all of this is: the rights and liberties are exchanged for the illusion of protection and help.

    The Canadian Govt created the mask/mandate problem. The working class (truckers) complained and protested with their Freedom Convoy. The Government complained and asked for safety and security for itself (imagine that, Govt calling itself a victim while scapegoating Powerless truckers). Their solution was to call the truckers domestic terrorists and insurrectionists and then strip them of their finances, property, and rights. Worse, they “deputized” their financial industries to do their dirty work for them (e.g., Corporatism) just like we are seeing Big Tech doing it here in the US.

    Reason they and now our guys should just stay home. They can not arrests or confiscate your property if you just stay home. How could they justify not allowing go fund me type of platforms for people not disrupting city streets.

    I think fuel prices are going to get really ugly, really quick.
    I believe we get crude from Ukraine. I just read that Russia was our #2 importer of crude last year.
    Russia invading will disrupt shipments from Ukraine. Then when Russia invades we'll slap sanctions on them, and they'll stop importing in retaliation as well.
    Our dumbass-in-chief won't do a thing, in fact he'll view it favorably as a positive to drive the push for electric vehicles.

    Imagine a closed door meeting between Biden and Putin. A man toying with a buffoon. Not scared in the least militarily, psychologically, or intellectually.

    Sounds like a good name for a team that records their hunts and uploads them to pornhub.

    ****, I don’t wanna even think about it. I’ll burn 200+ gallons on a day trip out to the Gulf Stream to fish. Add an extra 50 or so if the water is calm enough to really get on the throttles on the way out and back in. I’ve got a gas station that sells ethanol-free a few blocks away and three 25-gallon rolling gas caddy’s so at least I can avoid paying the fuel dock’s $2/gallon markup.

    Trip to the Outer Banks in May just got axed by the wife because of anticipated gas prices.

    I was indifferent about the trip since it is Spring Gobbler in Pa, so no biggie to me.
