In an earlier post<\/a>\u00a0I said that Angelo Codevilla’s article was sure to be interesting and depressing.\u00a0 And so it is.\u00a0 Basically he seems to concur with the Dissident Right on the point that there is no longer any going back to one America.\u00a0 His thesis is that the Progressives have let the genie fully out of the bottle and the Right is now radicalized to the point that there will be an unending ratcheting up of tactics on both sides.\u00a0 And he does not think political victory by the Right will deter the Left.\u00a0 They are now in the go for broke business.\u00a0 And of course the most apt metaphor for this situation is the Corcyran Civil War in Thucydides.\u00a0 There we see class warfare unleashed to its most diabolical conclusion, complete annihilation of the hated enemy down to the last man.\u00a0\u00a0The only ray of sunshine allowed is if Republicans win the next few elections we’ll able to convince the Progressives to peacefully divide the country into mutually exclusive populations of us and them.\u00a0 So the story is bleak.<\/p>\n

Luckily I’m an optimist.\u00a0 I still think we may beat the bastards.\u00a0 But I don’t say Mr. Codevilla can’t be right.\u00a0 He makes a convincing case.\u00a0 Well, I’m still staying up for the Mid-Terms.\u00a0 They should be very instructive.<\/p>\n

It’s a very long article and there are no laughs but if you are interested in a political perspective on the Resistance and what it will spawn from a very thoughtful writer of the Right you might want to read this.\u00a0 If you want the Cliff Notes version I’d say start prepping for the troubles.<\/p>\n
