1984 Meets John Galt

I think most Gulchers can look at 9 months of Joe and literally see AR prophecy coming true. So much of our country LOOKS like what I pictured reading AS. Joe IS Mr. Thompson. When Psaki makes a condescending comment about the “tragedy of the treadmill” I think of every small business sporting goods store that sells treadmills to pay the bills—including an obscene amount of taxes.
They are gaslighting the viewers while we watch and know what we see.
The border is not a crisis.
Inflation is transitory. Historic spending will curb inflation.
Stores running out of basics is a high class problem.
Afghanistan was a heroic success.
No one left behind.
There’s no supply chain crisis. We expect too much.
We know the truth. We know what we see. Then I thought of 1984.
Forgot the characters name but he was beaten senseless over and over until he affirmed….2+2=5.

    The stock market is thriving(?) on fiat pumped in by the fed to prevent any large corrupt companies from having any well deserved market corrections. That fiat creates inflation that destroys the savings of everyone while enriching the banking cartel for their part in destroying the economy. The DJ30 should by now be 70% lower without unjustified corrupt intervention by the fed.

    Indeed. There seem to be a lot of people out there in need of a prescription for Red Pills.

    Maybe we should start a rumor that they cure covid?

    It seems every day brings another "newspeak" word. Today is indeed an odd conglomeration of Atlas Shrugged and 1984, with an occasional bit of Brave New World thrown in.

    They are using AS as a template for what they want to accomplish. But without a REAL John Galt out there... they could succeed. I have been telling people for YEARS to read AS and learn from it. Only 1 person took me up on it. I think the rest are afraid that their beliefs will be challenged.

    I've been saying this a lot lately....That things are looking so much like Atlas Shrugged I can't believe it. A few months back I put the decal "Who is John Galt?" on the back window of my pickup. Gotten a few comments about it. My timing was perfect because, at this point, I'm actually starting to use that phrase in my day-to-day conversations. "See all those ships just parked off of Long Beach?!" "Who is John Galt?" It's the first line in Atlas Shrugged and it's just about the best answer to the confusion many are feeling now.

    I think America is in really deep trouble now. This guy in charge is clearly way off kilter...seems like a radical Marxist or something. This is not going to end well, my friends...
