The Alinsky Pandemic

It is now May, and we have gone way past the initial stages of a “2 week” quarantine trial period. Two weeks we were told was needed to monitor and chart a plan towards resumption of our lives. That 2 weeks has now turned into almost two months, and depending on who your governor is, it is being made up on the fly on when it all comes to a halt. It is like a line for a ride at Disney World you’ve never been on before. The entire line is never in view, rather you only see portions of it, giving a false impression your wait will end, only to turn the corner and see another stretch of line in front of you. Unlike Disney however, there is no amusement in store for any of us at the end of the wait. For millions of Americans, it will simply be the beginning of a long arduous journey to pick up the pieces of their economic remains. A journey they never should have been put on and a journey that has roots in a deceptive con on the American public.

              We have a nation that has been conned like no other generation in history. For it was Saul Alinsky, in his now famous handbook for left wing activists, “Rules for Radicals” who taught;

“The most effective activists are those who work within the established system, not against it, so as to stir the revolutionary pots of change through fear”. 

Yes, fear folks. The tool of modern-day leftist activism. Alinsky taught his radical followers (Obama and Hillary for instance) that in order to make their type of change, the people must be forced to capitulate “willingly”. Alsinsky stated;

“They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so future-less in the current system, that they are willing to let go of the past and chance the future”.

Now what future do you think Alinsky was referring to? Could it be a radical leftist and socialist system? When he spoke of people being frustrated, defeated, lost and future-less, doesn’t that sum up the feelings of everyone we know right now? Particularly those of us held captive in states run by Democratic governments? Does anyone really find it surprising that the Blue states are the ones running amok with rules of quarantine, “social distancing” and threats of incarceration if you stand to close to someone else? The radicals are in charge of these states and have pushed us into acceptance of their government by fiat, as they trample over our constitutional rights to be a free people. As I mentioned in my last column, this is not about a virus rather it is all about the acceptance of radicals stripping you of your rights, until eventually you accept their terms of surrender.

What if I Self-Identify as Essential?

We have all been divided into 3 categories of people. The first are those of us lucky enough to work from home and still collect a paycheck…out of the reach of the government. (That is until the economic collapse hits large corporations and they eventually lay off millions across the country). The second and third groups are “Essential” and “Nonessential” workers. (The work from homers will then be placed into one of these remaining two categories.)   Those deemed essential will now have a bias towards the new rules of the government. For they are in the favor of the elites and will not want to rock the boat. Those deemed nonessential will start to feel the emotions of frustration, defeatism and isolationism and start to sense a future-less existence for themselves and their families, as their ability to work is stripped away from them. It will get to a point where the unemployment check, and any remaining stimulus checks will become the new crack-cocaine of society. People dependent on the government handouts. Slowly but surely society is transformed from within. The scary part is, it is all underway right now. The question is how much more are those forced into group 3 going to accept before they revolt in substantial numbers? How long will they accept the tag on their existence being written as “Nonessential”?

Self-identification is a term the left loves to throw around and use as a hatchet against anyone who questions the obvious. They contend that you are who you think you are. As ridiculous as that is, I say then, this logic needs to be used as a push-back on all those insisting, we need to “Flatten the curve” and “Shelter in Place” if you aren’t deemed an “Essential” worker. Just who decides what and who is “Essential”?  Why is the government allowed to strip away the livelihoods of over 80 million Americans by declaring them “nonessential”?   I do not know about anyone else but if I own a business, and have employees, I think I identify as essential and I think those folks who work for me also identify as essential. (I believe their creditors who rely on their ability to pay, most certainly consider them essential). The entire economy of the United States is essential to the citizens of the United States.  Where did a group of politicians and bureaucrats get the right under the law to declare anyone “Non-essential” and why did Americans surrender their rights to these folks in such massive numbers? Well the short answer is a natural reaction to fear. If you do not think Americans have been beaten into a submission of fear, take a ride on any road, and you will see people driving in cars with masks on.  Masks to protect them from people in the same car that they live with!  I have seen people driving alone with a mask on and the windows rolled up.  You also see people walking on the beaches and streets, covering up any ability to breath in fresh air.  If you dare to walk without a mask you are treated like an Islamic woman in Iran who doesn’t wear her Burka. The panic over this virus has people believing that simply talking to someone in person has their life in immediate peril. How did we get here?

              The short answer is a well-coordinated sowing of the seeds of fear. Just look at the word “Essential”. Can anyone explain what qualifies to meet that adjective?  Yes, food distribution, medical personnel, garbage collectors, police and fire all are essential for a society. Are real estate agents, accountants, clothing store employees, barbers, surgeons and nursing staff (Non Chinese Flu personnel), gym owners, carpenters, electricians etc. not essential to society? I argue that they are. I would argue that removing out 12 trillion dollars of commerce from of an economy is catastrophic. I would also argue bankrupting 40 million people is pure devastation to both society and those families. What about our national security? Where is the money going to come from to sustain the military and intelligence apparatuses needed to keep us safe? Where are we going to get the money to outbid the Chinese communist bastards that have completely reopened, and now are out looking to buy up massive quantities of strategic assets across the globe?  If you don’t think this is happening I would suggest you read this attached warning from NATO on the current threat from the Chinese, already underway.

              How about the lives of those already suffering from depression? Is their ability to maintain a living or their own sanity not essential as they struggle already with depression? It is now estimated that over 2000 people have committed suicide related to this lock down. Did depressed Americans get excommunicated from the American family? Do they not count as essential? Perhaps the left sees them as part of the herd thinning they already want to occur. Just read the vile writings from “The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation” for their demented world view on population control for context. It is quite sickening.  What about children and spouses of violent abusers sheltered in place for months on end? Can anyone make a plausible argument that that is even sustainable for society to absorb? How many deaths have occurred from the stress this is causing on people with heart conditions? How many have died unable to be attended to, or out of fear of even setting foot in a hospital? I think it is apparent there are other deaths this is causing, yet never discussed.

Cuomo Uno

              Being that I have a front row seat, as do all New Yorkers, to the pure deception of Governor Andrew Cuomo it seems appropriate to use his exploits as the case study of this con underway. He believes himself to be Number One. El Supremo.  The man who is going to dictate our every move. He alone is going to decide the definition of essentiality. He smugly told a reporter two weeks ago, when asked about people going back to work, “If they want to work they should have taken an essential job”. Let that sink in for a minute.   Exactly a week ago Cuomo announced the following:

“After only 4 days of testing it is estimated that about 14% of all New Yorkers had the antibodies for the disease”

 Not only had them, but in the later stages as they contracted the virus but never showed any signs. In actual numbers over 2.5 million people contracted the virus in NY, and already built up resistance, mostly asymptomatic. The state has a population of 19.5 million people. With that, the State only has 300 thousand actual cases requiring attention and about 20 thousand deaths. That means in plain numbers the death toll is 0.008 or 8/10ths of 1 percent of all people who contracted it died.

They estimated hundreds of thousands of deaths with a 7 percent fatality rate. They were completely wrong. The fact is the deaths are elderly and more importantly those with comorbidity (Simultaneous presence of 2 or more chronic illnesses). Nationally the flu has numbers ranging around 56 million cases, 750 thousand hospitalized and around 65 thousand that have died. So the question that needs to be asked is if in New York alone we have estimated 14 percent of the population already exposed who overcame it, coupled with a low death rate, why are we locking up the state on the whim of a totalitarian governor? (Why as well are they in other Democrat controlled states?)  

              Keeping in mind those who are most at risk, it then leads us to the Cuomo problem of nursing homes. About a month ago Cuomo made this statement;

“My mother is not expendable, and your mother is not expendable”

If true, and it is,  why was the policy of the Cuomo administration to mandate nursing homes admit, and readmit patients testing out to be positive for the virus? This genius placed a population of infected folks into places where the existing patients were low hanging fruit for this virus to attack them. Does anyone really believe were Matilda Cuomo holed up in one of these homes, a patient with the Wuhan Flu would have been admitted? His story is filled with holes. We all need to question his sanctimony as he keeps telling us how he is protecting life. He is full of it. He is trying to protect his leftist image and maintain his massive power structure, all the while covering up his deadly misdeeds against the elderly (5000 out of 20,000 deaths in the state have occurred in nursing homes) and his complete overblown reactions towards those not at severe risk. With all this new info then why is the state in lock down?  I submit there is a larger agenda…

The Left and their New Normal

Rahm Emmanuel, former Chief of Staff to President Obama made a statement years ago that sums up all we are experiencing today, “Never let a good crisis go to waste”. For reference, Emmanuel is a foul-mouthed political brawler who has no qualms exploiting anything for his own advantage. (Another disciple of Alinsky). With his lead, the Democrats have been acting on that advice for years. Since the onset of this virus earlier this year, a common theme has emerged. Many on the left have told us “We will not be able to return to the old normal…what we see now is the “New Normal”.  These people are using the virus as a dog whistle to their base to tear down every institution they can, corrupt every process, and destroy as much of the structure of the nation, in order to rebuild it up into their socialist utopia just as Alinsky envisioned. Just look at the carnage around us. Manufacturing and sales at Depression era levels, the workforce at an 87 year low to more than 30 million unemployed, oil hovering at levels not seen since the early 1980’s, Interest rates plummeted to near 0% and welfare benefits skyrocketing. What is the left offering up to address these? Well they want us to still “Shelter in place” and not return to work. AOC made the asinine comment that once lock downs are lifted “People should refuse to go back to work”. Her and her cast of squad misfits see this as some way to address the absurd cause of “Income Inequality” (as she herself pockets $174,000 a year being a member of Congress).

 Other radicals want to drag this out until the end of the year. Their latest push is for mail in voting come November as they look to cancel their convention. A convention where Joltin’ Joe Biden would be on the world stage, exposed for the complete idiot that he is. They cannot let that happen. I am convinced they are looking to steal the election by any means possible, including rampant voter fraud. They did it to Nixon in the 1960 election, with Democrats stuffing ballot boxes for Kennedy all over Chicago and other union cities.  They will do it again if allowed to proceed. If you don’t think they are laying the  groundwork to do it all again in the Fall, you are kidding yourself. Pay close attention to their words in the coming months as they employ such terms as “boomerang” to claim instances of the virus having returned. This will allow them to push again for mail in voting just in time for November. Fraud is the only way they can win. It has been pushed by Fauci, celebrities and political leftists. This is no accident or coincidence.

A party that had no qualms about attempting to destroy two potential Supreme Court Justices of the United States, bearing false witness both times, is a real threat. A party that orchestrated a political coup twice upon a duly elected President of the United States, with help from the National Intelligence Agencies is as dangerous to the Republic as it gets and needs to be monitored closely and dealt with. Just sit for a moment and ask; why is mail in voting a priority for them in April/May for something that isn’t until 7/6 months away? The seeds are being sown folks. The virus is coming back even if it isn’t. Watch as we go, for the clues. Watch the media go into overdrive to give us phony polling about Biden being ahead even if he isn’t, and the Senate being taken by the Democrats even when it is not true. (They did all this in 2016 yet they suffered no consequences.) They have succeeded in bringing us to the brink of bankruptcy and a new Depression. They are the ones administering the poison to us, waiting for us to beg them for the antidote. We all know what they are up to, will we have the strength and courage to resist them? The only way to stop them to is never allow this lock down strategy to ever happen again. If we do allow it we will never escape it, and their new normal will become a reality we cannot afford.

Enough of the Front Line Nonsense

              I do not know about the rest of you, but I am honestly sick and tired of the lectures we have all had to endure from medical people, celebrities and politicians on television telling us all “Stay home, we got this”. Just what in the hell do you “got”? Do you “got” the mortgage payments, tuition payments, car insurance, food bills, pharmacy costs, life insurance payments, homeowners insurance payments, home heating/cooling costs, car payments, veterinarian bills etc? Is your virtue signaling going to cover all these expenses for all the folks deemed “Nonessential?  Is your Facebook profile pic of you rocking a surgical mask going to translate into cash for those affected?  Well if not, and it won’t, then please spare us all your self-promotion. You aren’t on some battleground front-line fighting the equivalent of the Nazis in World War II.  You aren’t  medics storming the beaches at Normandy and you are not administering aid along the way on the Bataan Death March. You work in a hospital (mostly not even directly involved with the virus) and you have every precaution available to you. The statistics indicate that deaths of healthcare workers are minimal just like the general public. I recently had a relative send me an absurd meme promoting herself that claimed;

“We didn’t ask for this…we are sorry you lost your job, we hate that you miss your friends…we are crushed the economy as we knew it has collapsed, we live in that world too, but we live in a reality that you cannot see and have a hard time believing is real..”

We don’t believe it because the numbers do not add up. We got bogus projections and bogus results, yet we are still acting as if they were correct.

This is the mindset of many of these people. (Not all medical folks, but sadly many of them and their political and Hollywood enablers) They have to admit the devastation this panic has caused but in the next breath completely dismiss it because they need to project an image that they “know more than you do”. They are too swept up in the adulation they are getting, even if it is false.  This is how they see themselves….They are more essential to the world than you and your silly nonessential crowd. So just shut the hell up until our essential leaders let you work again. We have great entertainment for you across the cities as people sing off their balconies for you at sunset. Be grateful! Watch us as we leave our apartments and get huge rounds of applause for being “Essential”. Enjoy our fellow “Essentials”, as they socially distance themselves and toast each other with flutes of champagne on their balconies. Be grateful, and when it ends, please try to smile. Saul Alinsky assures us all, it is for our own good…
