The present civil war pits all the groups that think America is evil against all the normal Americans who believe in the country that saved the world from all the insanities that raged against humanity in the twentieth century. It defeated fascism, Nazism, socialism, bolshevism, Maoism and all the other isms that attempted to enslave mankind. Now the stupidest version of communism, Bernie Bro-ism, is being used as a club by the Clinton-Bush-Obama gang to destroy the country in an orgy of imbecility.
But it has to be admitted that the millennials are willing dupes, the most useful of idiots, swallowing the lies that the intersectional politburo has cobbled together and enthusiastically supporting if not actually leading the charge in the street theater that currently afflicts the urban centers of almost every American city. These are the children of the Baby Boomers. They were foolishly but mostly innocently handed over to the ministrations of the America-hating teachers, professors, college resident advisors and human resource assistants who have filled their heads with self-hatred and contempt for the greatest nation that has ever arisen on this planet.
How big is this contingent? I’ll say that it is the majority of that generation. In addition to this cohort we can add in all the grievance groups. This includes feminists of all stripes, all of the LGBTQ, 85% to 90% of the black population, a majority of the Hispanic population, and a good chunk of the rest of the minority groups currently found in the country. Interestingly, a proportion of that Hispanic population seems to be up for grabs. The more prosperous and the socially conservative members of the group don’t really feel comfortable with the radical ideology of the far left and rightly believe that tearing down the country is not in their children’s best interests. I would also include in this category the Indian and Chinese and other Asian groups that came to America to partake in the prosperity and stability of the American system. Many of these people have seen the rioters destroying the lives of small business owners and they have seen the school systems of these cities destroyed by eliminating the recognition of excellence. It is possible over the course of a decade or two that these will be the new cohort of the right but it will require a different type of Republican to make that case convincingly and not the spineless open borders fools who play right into the hands of the Amerca-haters.
And the final portion of the Post Americans are the Cloud People and their minions in corporate America. The very rich and the managerial class have made common cause with the woke Post Americans and pay obeisance to the rioters and use their allies in the media to try to convince everyone else that resistance is futile.
So does this equal 270 electoral votes worth of Post Americans? Interestingly, probably not! As much as the Left has been trumpeting their demographics is destiny jazz for thirty years it seems that they haven’t quite dragged themselves over the finish line just yet. What will be especially interesting to see is whether their share of the millennial vote actually sinks below what they got in 2016. After all, I have to imagine even the brain-dead millennials have to be disturbed by an actual insurrection being played out in real time in their neighborhoods while the city governments sit back and let it happen. This is not to say that it will stop most of them from backing it but just maybe the smarter ones will see through the doublespeak.
In places like New York, California and Illinois it should be an ironclad policy of the federal government to withhold any funding to pay for the repair of the damage that the local governments allowed in their urban centers. This along with the destruction of the small and not so small businesses that were pushed over the edge to bankruptcy by the rioting and the COVID shutdowns should be the price these states should be forced to pay. That type of reality check will give their voters something to think about. Because going forward it is important to remember that if the Left is shown by the results of the election to have overplayed their hand then consolidating the votes of those who swing back to our side is the first order of business. Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota are ground zero for recapturing America. And not just for the presidential election. Taking senate seats, house seats and governorships are part of what it will take to begin changing the way Americans think about their country. They have to be made to understand that in a real way we are in a war. And the violence and chaos they have seen on the streets will reinforce that understanding and only when they elect men who will protect them from violence and intimidation will they get back the sense of stability and safety that was the norm in America for over a hundred years.
So, the answer to the title question is that the Post America contingent is pretty damn big but not quite big enough to take over if we stand up and stop them. Don’t forget to vote this November and bring your conservative friends along if they need a ride.
The biggest problem is the victim class is so arrogant in their beliefs(including,but not exclusive to the “educated”class)they lack ability to be reasoned with,a malady that takes them backwards in history.They are regressives not progressives!woops sorry for the no comment below’
No problem. Yes, I stopped trying to reason with that group long ago. I look for the folks who aren’t aware of how much things have changed and try to bring them over to our side. And the rioting is really helping that effort along.
