I have not done this in a while and generally don’t like doing it. However, given the nature of our assembly and the absolute critical stages of the awakening before us, it becomes a little more important to highlight and deconstruct a common refrain.
This example comes from the typeset of a poster named William Kenan Rand, who is triggered by the truthful expose’ about Ron DeSantis and the hidden manipulative intents and constructs that surrounded his fraudulent run for the republican nomination.
I will set aside the motives of Mr Rand, which seem quite obvious. When you expose fraud, those who rely on a pretense to maintain fraud, are often triggered by the truth. In essence, what he espouses is a great example of “battered conservative” thinking. So, I will walk through the deconstruction of it:
William Kenan Rand – “With all due respect and not wanting to get kicked out of here, just have to ask. DeSantis was trying to become president and working the system, and that’s cunning and deceitful? Isn’t that just politics?”
If you accept that Machiavellian deceit, purposeful manipulation and lying is just politics; then yes, I guess the candidate you support, Ron DeSantis, is just another run-of-the-mill liar in a long list of republican run-of-the-mill liars. But, this would be another reason to not support him.
“He ran a bad campaign and really was never going to beat Trump, but the idea seems to be because he had to appeal to the big money people in order to raise money, that’s he’s not his own man and just an establishment stooge.”
DeSantis didn’t run a bad anything. The campaign was created for him, to use him. He was willful to the campaign intent. You see, Ron DeSantis is not an employer, he is an employee of the system. He does the bidding of those who sign the checks. You seem to accept this as okay, without realizing the nature of that relationship makes him a political puppet to deliver an outcome that is entirely different from the stage performance you claim to want, and he promises to deliver.
“Ok, but you know, I don’t think the establishment was anti-lockdown or now anti-vax. If he is someone to just follow orders, why would he have done all the stuff he did as governor and take so much heat? If it’s just a cunning deceit to appeal to the base, well you’d think more Republicans would do the same but haven’t.”
Pro-Tip #1, the orders are often constructed to give the illusion of opposition. Railing against something in order to garner popular support does not mean the politician is necessarily against the thing he decries.
“He was a little slow on the uptake for me in bucking the White House Covid task force recommendations, but he moved faster once he adjusted. Got a lot of other great things done as governor as well.”
Every “great thing” Ron DeSantis did as governor, was specifically planned and intended to create the feeling of the “great thing” you hold dear.
“Trump’s agenda is basically Reagan’s with a more sophisticated understanding of trade and a better approach on immigration. It’s a great agenda. The establishment didn’t like Reagan either, btw.”
Trump’s agenda is much bigger than Ronald Reagan’s agenda because those who control the globalist agenda grew their influence exponentially in the 35 years between President Reagan and President Trump. The opposition to Donald Trump is 35 years more economically mature and developed.
“However, as great as those things are, we’re also facing a new front in the war with the globalists. Imo, we’re facing the greatest threat to humanity the world has ever faced absent perhaps the Tower of Babel. The transhumanist biowarfare depopulation program is a legit threat to the human species, our very lives and also to the natural world and our food.”
“Trump is an unbelievable fighter, but I don’t think he sees this. He is still proud of the vax and Operation Warp Speed when many like myself think he was snookered and it’s a bioweapon and part of a much deeper, sinister program. As great as he is, Trump doesn’t see it that way, it appears.”
These are the best two cognitively dissonant paragraphs written. According to Mr. Rand, Trump is intellectually stupid, “snookered”, for not seeing the “globalist” threat as described, yet Mr. Rand cannot see the “globalist” threat created within the DeSantis operation.
Take the plank out of your own eye before worrying about the splinter in Trumps’. You present the concern that Trump is blind and cannot see the globalist scheme, but at the same time you showcase your blindness and cannot see the globalist scheme you are defending. Within this scenario, who exactly was “snookered” more?
“I said all that because we need guys like DeSantis in the party and in leadership roles who did start seeing it. Maybe DeSantis did not fully see it in the way I describe but he stood up to it, and we need people like that. Seems like Ron Johnson sees it too. It’s not just about the GOP establishment versus MAGA and economic nationalism, and there are a lot of nuances in there. OWS was not MAGA, for example.
A full spectrum approach is what’s needed and that has to entail recognizing the globalist biowarfare plans.” (LINK)
You stand against “globalist biowarfare plans” while promoting the Ron DeSantis pretense the “biowarfare” planners created to fool you. Can you not see the incredible irony that exists in the outcome created by those like yourself who are “battered conservative” victims, defending their abuser? The people you have disdain for, created Ron DeSantis, yet you like and trust Ron DeSantis?
Last two points, as espoused by similar voices infected with Battered Conservative Syndrome:
“We Can’t Put All Our Eggs In One Basket”
Then by all means, bring me another basket. Right now, there isn’t another, and the professional Republican people keep offering us buckets, instead.
It does us no good to tie a bow around a bucket (DeSantis) and call it a basket. As my father said, “you cannot catch fish in trees; so, why are you standing in the forest with your fishing pole?”
“Trump Should Have Started A New Party”
Trump’s new party is called MAGA. We all signed up and registered. MAGA then took over the Republican Party. Look around, there are more of us than them. It’s not us that needs to start a new party, it’s them. They are refusing to leave our party, so we are having to throw them out.
Well said and very succinctly Sundace
