The Left wants America to fall?
If that brings down a nation with it, that's on them. But, they need to be held accountable.

Uhhh...don't forget, dabe. It's your country, too.
The above quote and reply pairing came from a post I made over on Modman's thread "The Left just does not get it."
I've heard this kind of quote quite a few times from people on the Left, and I really have to wonder if they realize what they're saying. "If it brings down a nation, that'll be on them."
No, it'll be on all of us, including those on the Left, who so seem to clamor for the collapse of our present system of government. What kind of government would they prefer to replace it? What kind do they think would slide in in its place?
Historically speaking, when a nation collapses under political pressure or violence, it is not usually a good thing for the people as a whole, as it is often a brutal dictatorship of some kind which takes its place. Sometimes, as with the USSR, China, Cuba, Vietnam and North Korea (are we seeing a pattern here?), one type of dictatorship merely replaced another, and the new government was often worse than the old.
I'm sure there would be no dearth of strongmen willing to kill thousands to sit in the Oval Office and dictate the New Order to the people of America, and I seriously doubt it would have anything at all to do with honoring the constitution of the Founding Fathers.
Do they not understand what they're saying and doing when they conjure these idiotic statements? When they distribute their falsehoods and rumors or work with and support groups that seek to undermine American democracy and influence?
Do they honestly think the type of governments these groups support would permit the freedom of expression and speech these supposed purveyors of personal freedoms and compassion claim to embrace?
I don't think they do.
