How to Defeat the Republican Snowflakes and Their Snowflake-in-Chief

in #politics7 years ago

How is it possible that the Republican Party can campaign endlessly on repealing Obamacare, but as soon as they get the power to do it, they fail? All they had to do was vote! The American people clearly voted for their "representatives" to do something ... and they didn't do it! Calling the GOP the party of smaller government is like calling a blackjack dealer your financial advisor. Saying the GOP is responsive to its constituents is like saying that the guy who's got you tied up in his basement is a great waiter. Calling Republicans honest is like calling the sky orange. (Not that they're any better than Democrats, but I don't even need to drag them into this to prove that the very concept of centralized government is fundamentally criminal.)

So ... why?! I haven't really followed the recent drama of congressional Republican snowflakes and snowflake-in-chief, Mr Trump. I don't particularly care to watch their fake spines melt out of their fake faces as they lie through their fake teeth. For a long time after Trump was elected, my pinned tweet was, "Any Trump supporters want to bet against me that government will shrink under Trump?" I haven't had a single taker to date.

When Trump was elected, the American people voted for someone "to be in charge of them." If you're looking for a leader, you're going to get a ruler, and you probably deserve it for not taking charge of your life and leading yourself! This could be said to be the source of all government corruption. If power corrupts, and we don't want corruption, maybe we should stop giving people power! (Just to defend myself from the piss of the pedantics, I'm referring to political power here.)

So if you really don't like Obamacare, and your answer was to trust the Republicans, I've got a government bridge to sell you. If it wasn't obvious and undeniable before, it had better be now: the Republicans are the apologist wing of the Democratic Party. While Democrats are open about wanting to grow government, Republicans pretend to be about smaller government in order to pacify the Americans who still care about freedom to serve the same agenda of GROWING government. If you want government to keep growing out of control, keep voting Republican. (Just for the record, trying to get the Republican Party to reform or be honest is like trying to get Trump to ... reform or be honest.)

If you genuinely love freedom, it's time to find an honest foundation for that love, because denial isn't working. Democrats and Republicans are both corrupt big government parties which primarily exist to serve their special interest sponsors. Libertarians are the only ones offering you a credible alternative. The only way that we defeat this grotesque government is to take it apart from the top down. It would be far easier to elect someone to dismantle the entire federal government than find an honest elected Republican, and that's what it's going to take to defeat big centralized government once and for all!

I agree with you on the fact that the Libertarian Party is the only credible alternative to the corrupt government that the United States has had for centuries. Unfortunately, it's still a THIRD party and it has a long, very long way to go to achieve anything in this country. If you analyze the American sentiment, this is very unlikely as US citizens tend to favor not "throwing away" their vote. Until the Libertarian Party grows to become a force in the Senate, their agenda is worthless.

Haha "pedantics", what, you knew I was reading? It's good to know you're thinking of me too Adam! 😃

As a cooperative agorist I'm all for voting in self defence. The agorist idea of rejecting voting on principle even when liberty depends on it, that's pacifism. You know what? That dog don't hunt.

Fascists can do whatever they want if we just leave the the democratic process in their hands. Libertarians shouldn't walk out unless we know we can at least shield ourselves against the misuse of power that would likely follow.

Once again, thank you for your wise words and work Adam!

I agree about with the part: don't give people power.
I say give theme STEEMPOWER

When dealing with bootlicking neocons, I bring up evey contradiction with the constitution. When they realize the document they supposedly supported contradicts their current views, they become more susceptable to have the paradigm punctured. Or you know, you could just call them commies because that's what they are.

They should've built a system that didn't rely on First-Past-The-Post voting, which guarantees a consolidation of power as opposed to coalitions.

in politics you are never right

If power corrupts, and we don't want corruption, maybe we should stop giving people power!

This is pure, distilled, concentrated libertarianism right here.

"If you're looking for a leader, you're going to get a ruler"

Right on!

"The only way that we defeat this grotesque government is to take it
apart from the top down"

I think this is partially true. However, it's not the "only" way. Building new systems to replace the old systems is a bottom up effort that also needs to be done. How are "top down" decisions going to build new societal structures based in non-violence? How do you enforce top-down decisions when people don't go along with it?

Just points I brought up to think about. As you pointed out, seeking a leader might be an issue. What if people start looking to you as their leader?

“You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” ~ R. Buckminster Fuller

I agree. The only way to influence and eventually influence the top is if enough people at the bottom adopt a different way of life. The only change we'all see these days is from the ground-up. The tops pockets are too deep and their care is only reserved for themselves.

Im glad to find a few libertarians on steemit, though i guess it shouldnt be a suprise. (Assuming your a libertarian if not sorry). I hope everyday our two party system will die a cold hard death anytime in the near future.

There are lots of libertarians on Steemit if you know where to look. Most of the ones I follow are of the anarchist wing, but there are a few minarchists as well. In fact, I'd say that libertarians pretty much founded Steemit (not speaking for Dan and Ned here) because I rarely found anyone else posting when I first joined last year. Regardless, welcome to Steemit.

Thanks. After reading your article and thinking about it, this is a logical platform for us/them to be drawn to.

Agreed, we need to build up these communities. We expanded heavily on instagram. Time for decentralized media. Gave you a follow

Well @adamkokesh it seems to me that you have an extremely deep understanding of the way our country is actually run , and who is really in charge , when you were talking about counting on the #Republicans , most of them have been campaigning for the past 6 to 7 years on the platform of repeal / replace and most running strictly on just repeal , scrap it . But the real kicker to all this is the Republicans have passed a full repeal vote in the house and senate and it didn't matter because Barrack Hussien Obama was waiting , sword in hand , ready to strike down any attempt to muddy his legacy with a swift veto of the pen . Republicans sent a repeal bill up on numerous occasions during the past 7 years , and they could all seem to swallow there pride and come together and vote for a repeal to make there constituents " WE THE PEOPLE " think " oh yea there ready to go to bat and get this done , if that damn Obama would hurry up and term out maby we can get someone in there that will sign the damn bill "
Now that they could get the bill signed , all the sudden the Freedom Caucus isn't satisfied with this part , then the moderates want more of something over here , oh yea we can't forget the #Conservatives , Texas Ted Cruz , and Rand Paul who oppose the bill at every turn , and guess what that is fine , if you dont think that this is best for The American People , and you all cant come to a common ground / " REPUBLICANS " / " DEMOCRATS "/ then guess what Republicans ? Do what you have done 2 dozen times in the past 6 years now , and vote on a Straight Repeal of The Affordable Care Act ( #REPEALOBAMACARE ) and pass it , come together and get the 5o votes like they already have proved they can pull off THEY HAVE DONE IT ALREADY , only when it seems like it dose not matter , how convenient ? Come together Make it happen its your job.

But that wont happen because of exactly what @adamkokesh is saying in this post , both political party's could care less about " We The People " , unless we the people are flocking like sheep to there Big Government Propagandized welfare state we like to call #America . As long as we can help elect more people that will grow the government we will be giving our country , that your fathers , Great Grandfathers , and Mothers , Great Grandmothers ,fought , died , sweat , and bled to have what you have today and if your willing to give something so precious away with so little of a fight ? god help you , cause i know ill be able to say never once did I waiver from the morals , values , work ethic and strong family bonds & ties that I was raised in , and will proudly pass down to my son of 5 months .

Steem ONNNNNNNNN MY FELLOW STEEMIANS YOU KEEP ME SANE THANKYOU
