With the lab leak theory gaining mainstream exposure, it's time to review Unrestricted Warfare (1999), written by two Chinese PLA colonels, which is effectively a manual on how to defeat the United States. A thread. /1

This is why liberalism is gay. These people believe it’s the responsibility of white taxpayers to care for the non-white victims of non-white aggressors around the world. Enough.

Heartbreaking story about women and girls raped in Eastern Congo who can no longer get medication to prevent HIV transmission, because of Trump administration's USAID cuts: https://t.co/34MOw3A7Wc Careless men in DC make decisions, and Congolese girls suffer.

Welcome to all of recorded human history? Sometimes bad ideas beat good ones because bad people put in more work than good people.

@grayzoneintel Cain had the idea to kill Abel. I'm not following? Most problems with mankind begin in the mind of each individual. The pattern being, people who in their mind are gods and do not submit to true gods. Then they get the idea they're ENTITLED or OWED things and take them.

Shit posting and commenting "you have to go back" under Vivek's posts have their place in popularizing ideas. But don't mistake an online ratio for political action in real life. You have to make these national policies by building support at the state and local level.

All policies start as ideas. Universal suffrage was an idea. Illegal mass immigration was an idea. The cradle-to-grave social welfare state was an idea. Social justice over criminal justice was an idea. Policy is just ideology that survives long enough to capture institutions.

You’ve been force fed propaganda your entire life, kid. It’s all you’ve ever known. One day you’ll realize that what you’ve been conditioned to believe is not how the world works. It’s how life worked in “muh rules based international order” but that world is gone.

The one thing I'm glad of regarding this controversy is the opportunity to divorce from vile trash who happen to have good ideas but underneath are un-American trash. Go make an ethnostate somewhere else. Germany? But I think they're going for a caliphate already.

@joshuaprichards When you keep following rules that no longer work because you’ve been taught to, you end up playing a sucker’s game. That’s your entire mindset right now. Please realize that the rules have changed, and adopt a worldview that reflects this reality.

@joshuaprichards you may not realize this now, but the safety and security of your kids and grandkids is determined by what you’re doing today. Calling me names on the internet and divorcing yourself from reality aren’t doing future you any favors.

If I ever went to your shit hole of a country and got citizenship, I would be a citizen. But no one would mistake me for being Indian, obviously.

That’s amazing and I am happy 4 u. We have the same rights because we are both U.S. citizens. That’s how citizenship works. But I am an American. You never will be.

My ancestors arrived in Virginia in the 1640s, bought and carved out 300 acres on the James River, and over generations moved from there to North Carolina, South Carolina, and then Georgia, usually seeking more/better land. (The move to Georgia was after receiving acreage in a

It seems like nearly every post-war consensus is either under attack or breaking down. - The American Dream is achievable (breaking down) - U.S. as global police (breaking down) - NATO as a unified, unquestioned security guarantor (breaking down) - Americanism as a creed, not a
