Well, Thomas, Alito and Gorsuch tried to help their country but Roberts, Kavanaugh and Coney Barrett

couldn’t or wouldn’t see how the 14^th Amendment can’t apply to the children of illegal aliens.  So, we’re stuck with deporting their parents before they can birth them.  As time goes on, I see that government is bound to disappoint because the quality of most of our politicians and the way the system has been gamed precludes good governance.

And in a lot of ways, the citizens themselves have also become degraded.  They no longer want their freedom but instead crave bread and circuses.  Mamdani and his commie allies are straight up telling the mob that they will be given all the free stuff they want in exchange for their votes.  And if the commies take over the government that will be the end of this country as a first world nation.  They’ll quickly give us Brazil.  Well, what can you do?  Our leaders have been working at this for fifty years and if the younger generation is too stupid to know what’s planned for them then that’s what we’ll get.

Alright, I’m along for the ride.  But if this is the way it goes then it’s every man for himself.  We’ll need to set up our own survival networks to make up for what the government no longer has the competence or the will to provide; policing, other safety functions, reliable infrastructure (we’re already seeing the power grid fail much more frequently than even ten years ago), education, water, safe medicines and food supply.  And all this makes sense.  I knew a fellow who was an ex-pat German living in Venezuela and his family took all the things I mentioned into account.  He went to private schools for Germans and lived in an enclave outside the more dangerous parts of the city (Caracas?) and depended on a private security firm to patrol their neighborhood and pay off the local and federal officials to avoid the worst of the crime and bureaucracy.  So, we’ll have to become like Democrats talking about “our democracy” and “diversity” but hide in our bunkers and depend on armed guards to protect us from diverse democracy in the streets.

I shouldn’t paint too grim a picture.  Forewarned is forearmed as they say.  And being able to stop hoping that somehow, we’ll get everything just right and the Left will suddenly stop trying to kill us all is actually a relief.  We’ve been dealing with all of the same disappointment and worry since Lyndon Johnson and it’s just no way to live.  Just start living with the reality we have and don’t expect anyone to save you.  The only answer is to save yourself and the people around you that mean the most to you.  Sure, we’ll keep voting and all the other rituals but the effective actions are working around the anarcho-tyranny that the Left has set up and making sure you live your best life.
