And Trump Is John Galt. All hail Ayn Rand, the virtue of selfishness, and Luciferian objectivism! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71454395 Well, AC what exactly would you disagree with in this passage? "What I actually am, Mr. Rearden, is a policeman. It is a policeman's duty to protect men from criminals—criminals being those who seize wealth by force. It is a policeman's duty to retrieve stolen property and return it to its owners. But when robbery becomes the purpose of the law, and the policeman's duty becomes, not the protection, but the plunder of property—then it is an outlaw who has to become a policeman." who pays policemen? Don't understand the book or the concept, of course. |

Sheee, you don't think that I've actually read the thing do you? No, of course you haven't read "the thing". Although I can appreciate the post. Last Edited by s. d. butler on 05/21/2017 08:35 AM |

And Trump Is John Galt. for those who don't know Atlas Shrugged: Quoting: Malu nli The book depicts a dystopian United States, wherein many of society's most prominent and successful industrialists abandon their fortunes and even the nation, in response to aggressive new regulations, whereupon most vital industries collapse. The title is a reference to Atlas, a Titan described in the novel as "the giant who holds the world on his shoulders". The significance of this reference appears in a conversation between the characters Francisco d'Anconia and Hank Rearden, in which d'Anconia asks Rearden what advice he would give Atlas upon seeing that "the greater [the titan's] effort, the heavier the world bore down on his shoulders". With Rearden unable to answer, d'Anconia gives his own response: "To shrug". [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] must read book The latest movie treatment is fucking excellent too. Critics are fags. The cameo by Hannity drove them all into fits. I did not know it was made into a movie! I bought the book end of last year after reading Anthem. I knew Atlas Shrugged would be thick, but damn the typeface!!! Too effing small so was immediately intimidated. lol Just checked eBay and the DVD is for sale! Imma gonna buy me a copy. |

And Trump Is John Galt. As for the rest: Thread: We Are Literally Witnessing The First Stages Of The Global Zombie Apocalypse Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37794316 And we should be scared. Fear prompts one into action. SWiFT ACTION IS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY: Aside from them obviously not being re-animated corpses, the brain dead flailing liberal socialist horde is surrounding us. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71611319 We must be prepared. They do not respond to reason. They will attack relentlessly, even against their own interests. We've seen this situation for the last 5 weeks... What does it take? What does it take to make people see? This situation must be controlled before is too late. They're multiplying too rapidly! The first question is always are these cannibals? No, they're not cannibals. Cannibalism in the true sense of the word implies an intraspecies activity. These creatures cannot be considered human...they prey on humans; they do not prey on each other!. That's the difference. They attack. They feed only on warm human flesh. Intelligence? Seemingly little or no reasoning power. What basic skills remain are more like remembered behaviors from normal life. There are reports of these creatures using tools, but even these actions are the most primitive. The use of external articles as bludgeons and so forth. I might point out that even animals could adopt the basic use of tools in this manner. These creatures are nothing but pure motorized instinct. We must not be lulled by the concept that these are our family members or our friends. They are not. They are nothing more than pure motorized instinct. And dangerous. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71611319 "In the cold room at the University, we had a leftist, a leftist from which all limbs had been amputated. Some time early this morning, it opened its eyes and began to move and to hurl socialist propaganda at Trump and his supporters. It was brain-dead, but it opened its eyes and tried to subvert!" Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74174202 "That's my point! There's not going to be five, or even ten of them! There's going to be twenty, thirty, maybe a hundred of those things out there, and as soon as they find out we're here, this place'll be crawling with them!" "Civil defense officials in Cumberland have told newsmen that hordes of brain-dead socialists show evidence of having been triggered by their betters. Consistent reports from witnesses to the effect that "leftist agitators who acted as if they were in a kind of trance were wildly gesticulating and parroting the illogical rhetoric of their lying corporate media handlers" have prompted Trump and his supporters to laugh uncontrollably. Authorities in Cumberland have concluded that in all cases, the socialist agitators are cracking us up. And so this incredible story becomes more humorous with each report. It's difficult to imagine such a thing actually happening, but these are the reports we have been receiving and passing on to you, reports which have been verified as completely as is possible in this confused situation." Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74174202 And if we had paid attention to this like McCarthy pleaded with us to do at the beginning, we wouldn't be in this dire situation today. "If we had listened... If we had dealt with this phenomenon properly at the beginning... it wouldn't have come to this!" "The desert will be safer because things will fall apart now. No satellites, no internet, no cell phones. Communications will fail because there will be no one there to manage the servers. The electrical grid will collapse for the same reason. It's all going to go to hell. And that's what they don't get. When civilization ends, it ends fast." |

Oh, he gets it. He gets it on a grand scale and obviously recognizes the big picture...the salvation of western civilization itself. These are powerful words. In Warsaw this morning, President Trump delivered what the White House sees as one of the most important speeches of his presidency. He didn't identify himself with the nationalist populist ruling party in Poland, but has something grander in mind. The president presented himself as the leader of the West during an address to thousands of Poles in a public square. Trump's team, led by senior policy adviser Stephen Miller, saw an opportunity to use the story of the Polish resistance as the setting for a new rallying cry to Western civilization. [link to www.axios.com (secure)] "The fundamental question of our time is whether the West has the will to survive. ... Our own fight for the West does not begin on the battlefield — it begins with our minds, our wills, and our souls... Americans, Poles, and the nations of Europe value individual freedom and sovereignty. We must work together to counter forces, whether they come from inside or out, from the South or the East, that threaten over time to undermine these values and to erase the bonds of culture, faith and tradition that make us who we are. I am here today not just to visit an old ally, but to hold it up as an example for others who seek freedom and who wish to summon the courage and the will to defend our civilization." He is John Galt, and the West has had it's will to survive taken away and perverted, right under it's nose and against it's will. There is no going back. The brain-dead on the Left will drag you down too if you try to save them.

But right from the beginning you knew this was different, because it was happening in small villages, market towns... and then it wasn't on TV anymore. It was on the street outside. It was coming through your windows. It was brain-dead socialists. By the time they tried to evacuate the cities, it was already too late. They were everywhere. The army blockades were overrun, and that's when the exodus started. The day before the TV and radio stopped broadcasting, there were reports of infection in Paris and New York. You didn't hear anything more after that. |
