    Since Brewskier has identified the source for all these problems (even though he’s too much of a snowflake to say what it is), I’m going to bet he has a plan for dealing with this group. A “Final Solution” if you will.

    Mainstream conservatism makes far more sense than rabid trumpery. The former is a coherent theory of governance amenable to the analysis of demonstrable performance, the latter an emotionally-based irrationality that illogically embraces stark contradictory pronouncement spewed by a narcissistic, morally-putrid, messianic national misadventure.

    I think the fact that you would fear a nationalist pro America agenda and defend globalist “conservatism” proves my point.

    Mainstream conservatism changes every 20 years. Consider Eisenhower, Nixon, Reagan, and Trump. They have little in common except being mainstream Republicans in their era.

    Because they come from a lot of sources. This battle has been going on for millennia. Each side waxes and wanes and will continue to do so.

    Meaning that’s as far as you’ll go with it. It’s ok, others can still get this

    Mainstream conservatism is controlled opposition. It has been carefully crafted to be an ineffective resistance to the globalist left.

    The only thing that will stop the left, and clean up the damage they have done is fascism. That is scary to most of you, this is also by design.

    If your "point" is that you embrace your messiah's perverting America into a pariah nation - e.g., standing alone with Bashar al-Assad as the only aberrant apostates against the scientifically-based global consensus regarding anthropogenic climate change - no, I support the proven approach by which the United States actually achieved economic pre-eminence, by enlightened engagement, not by hostile, antagonistic isolationism that alienates trade partners that have mutually benefited.

    Right, like I said, you will defend globalist “conservativism” even as part of the far left. This supports the idea that mainstream conservatism, libertarianism, and other allowable “right wing” positions pose no threat to the left. They are ineffective counters.

    As a Trump cultist, your zealotry eschews the proven, successful approach of the US and all other advanced nations.

    The 200 million jihadists only fester in your noggin compliments of trumpery.

    Most folks, Americans included, consistently agree that your messiah stinks.

    What it means is, even if every Jew in the country packed up and moved to Israel, it wouldn't make an iota of difference in the leftist control of academia, and the entertainment and news media. It would all be exactly the same. And the right would still be losing, just like it is now.

    That's why your entire argument (as far as the Jews go) is inference. My only guess as to why you waste so much time staring down that empty hole is that you just cannot rationalize white western people, after creating the greatest cultural and technological civilization that's every existed on this planet, suddenly being as stupid and suicidal as to throw that all away down a leftist sewer, so therefore there has to be a conspiracy against them.

    The only conspiracy is the natural forces of history. There was no way this was going to last forever, and if there wasn't another enemy to knock us over, we would be our own enemy and knock ourselves down. I guess the Muslims are taking too long.

    You know, you created a perfectly interesting topic in this thread, but it seems like all of your topics it only lead to the Jews. It's very myopic.

    Anyone notice the cowardly OP is still too scared to actually say who he thinks is responsible for all of those things?

    Just say "the jews". Why are you so afraid of being straightforward about your beliefs?

    Just because something is a conspiracy doesn’t mean it is crazy or false. I was able to change my mind by acquiring more information. Hopefully you can one day do the same.

    Well it's the "information" that seems to be lacking. You may have changed your mind, but it wasn't because of new data.

    One should know that IQ is not the same as wisdom, of foresight or virtually any truly valuable personal quality. It is potential in some areas, particularly technological and complex skills. However, it becomes a sort of illusion when it comes to common sense and people skills. People with little education have become empire builders, such as the founder of Bank of America. People with advanced degrees, such as the PhD who worked for me in the late 70's don't necessarily become useful at all- this particular one was my warehouse janitor. I have a very high IQ (or did as a younger man, mid 99th percentile) and over time I realized it was also a serious handicap, and literally re-programmed myself- which very few people are able to do. IQ can make it difficult to understand in many cases; you can easily over-complicate things.

    It also creates a vulnerability to faulty ideology, as clearly demonstrated in the liberal universities.

    As the Kettering quote in my footer says- "you can know a great deal and understand nothing."
