No Kings 2.0

[Maxmars]

If I'm right...

Just about now, some people are beginning to notice patterns of behavioral processes and results...

A sort of 'formula'... a 'secret alchemy'... 

This new breed of "activist" is literally paid to MAKE people violent*...
(interesting, since 'journalists' are now self-declared activists.)

The "American public relations pioneer," Edward Bernays appears
to have given them a "leg up" on manipulating perception by an
emotional kind of mass hypnosis... a social trick.

Shades of Hitler?



* or sad, or afraid, fees negotiable.

Remember when Congress did a substantive and in-depth investigation into the Communist agenda and subversive un-American activities of these so-called "charitable foundations"¹, and still nothing resulted from it?

Hey, whatever happened to "tribunals"?

Because, McCarthy, Just because there is a group of subversives in a free, open, and democratic republic, doesn't make every follower from the group guilty of actual crimes against the free, open, and democratic republic.

What a free, open, and democratic republic can do is infiltrate and monitor said subversive group, as has been done with factions like the KKK and others over the years. and no doubt the No Kings as well

Besides, everything doesn't have historical analogs; for example, your communists were actually sponsored by governments. It just wasnt a red around every corner as Joseph pretended there to be


No Kings is sponsored by multiple international corporate CEOs, foreign and domestic

Read the Reese Committee reports on charitable foundations if you have not. It details their subversion. Here is a starting point, you can find the full text on archive.org: https://going-postal.com/2025/04/the-reece-committee/

You will find many of the same foundation names in the report that Rep Luna highlighted.

If you're pressed for time, at least check out the highlighted bits of the Dodd Report introduction, detailing the subversion of the American educational system by these foundations, their first target: https://illinoisfamily.org/wp-content/up...s-1954.pdf (16pg PDF)

In many ways, McCarthy was right. That it was spun as paranoia and a baseless anti-red witchhunt sort of makes sense in retrospect, given what we know today about how politics operates, doesn't it?

The left wing socialist communist hate that they are not the authorities that must be obeyed or else.

There has never been a communist or even hard-line socialist government of the USA. The US is a very capitalist country and has never stepped away from that.

However, the suggestion that these far-lefties, who have never been in power in your country, are wanting to wrest power away from the current government, does infer that authoritarianism is a valid attribute of the current government. The 'No Kings' protests are further highlighting that your current administration is regarded by its citizens as authoritarian and verging on the tyrannical, in that regard.

They don't hate "tyranny", they hate that they don't get to be the tyrants; clearly, they do not hate "fascism", as they are the ones employing fascist tactics in an effort to get their way... or else. It's a pretty clear case of cognitive dissonance to decry fascism while at the same time being the only fascists in town.

[Image: https://denyignorance.com//images/addsmi...5_hail.gif] The Communist and the Muslim sympathizers have trained the left well to hate every freedom and country that is not Communist or a Muslim shit hole like they fled from.

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement that rose to prominence in early-20th-century Europe. Fascism is characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy. Opposed to communism, democracy, liberalism, pluralism, and socialism, fascism is at the far right of the traditional left–right spectrum.

Here's more details on Wikipedia: Fascism

I know some far-right pundits have tried to redefine the meaning, but that is because they are stupid and ignorant of the historical roots of the word. If someone misuses a word in the English language it does not change the etymology of the language, it just identifies them as being ignorant of the reasons for the word's meaning.

Perhaps you might choose language that is actually descriptive of the worst aspects of the far-left, in future, because there are many real-world examples of their failings (such as under Stalin or Mao)?

No, it does not.... we can be infiltrated both times but by different entities and to differing degrees

#1 Communists were considered scum by both parties, whereas ANTIFA is just an idea to one party, No Kings  It 
is full of the gullible innocence while being embedded with ANTIFA, financed by CEOs 

Additionally, one doesn't have to see your quasi-historical counterpart, NO KINGS, with all of its financing news and followers, needs to be monitored, but it's less of a national threat than the RED SCARE.

and I didn't besmirch the use of Wikipedia once...

I see the potential correlations, but NO KINGS while subversive AF, seems less because of who is behind this.

That seemed a little incoherent, forgive me if I'm not getting what you're saying, but I think we agree? The NK group is a fabricated outlet for people's evoked (note: not necessarily invalid) political outrage. Luna's list of the NK "partners", and the detailing of the foundations that they receive their funding from was my point. These "foundations" have been found to have anti-American agendas in the past, yet are powerful enough to continue on regardless. It's a complex web—see how the same foundation funds a movement though dozens of different channels?

The Reese Committee uncovered this in the 50s. Even some of the names are the same. All this has happened before, and will happen again.

So communists had a foothold in America over 65 years ago, and they are just now convincing enough of the gullible GP?

Is that the gist of the theory?

PS.

im just talking in the middle of Mom's naps while we are watching and helping care for a Mom who was in her preteens during the Red Scare.

My posts might be a little disjointed. I usually have time to come back and straighten up and clarify interrupted posts, but there was all of 8 whole minutes between posting my unfinished masterpiece thesis and your reply.

I was putting together a monitor and a pager so that we would know when Mom is trying to get out of bed by herself. 

Back on topic

But me being a curious teen, especially about WWII and the Cold War, have read enough and talked with my mother's mother about this very topic.  The Red Scare was real; McCarthy just took it to the Nth degree and was seeing commies around every corner. 

Even if some of the organizations are the same, those leading them are not; how does one get independent American humans to follow a mantra through multiple generations that is not religious?

When things get to the quiet hours, I'll be back

I found it amusing that so many from my generation are supporting Marxism.

We had the Greatest Generation, now we have The Most Entitled Generation (boomers) (yes, my generation).
