    I am pretty sure a lot of politicians who are part of the problem see themselves like that. That's the core of all the shit that's going on. They think all they're doing to us is in the service of our "own good".

    Neal Boortz, whose radio show I greatly enjoyed often said something to the effect of, “Politicians are people whose only skill is to get re-elected and are basically incompetent outside of that.” I’d add to that an over-inflated sense of importance. But people eat that shit up unfortunately, which is why we get plant-based beer.

    Off the charts infuriating...so evil that I refuse to watch it. I read enough to get the gist. Sociopaths lives among us.

    This will not be a popular question....

    Why are we not equally infuriated by Doctors who withhold information/treatment from Covid patients...especially the weak and elderly? If this virus is not treated, it can kill. That poor demented lady will survive, and hopefully receive a settlement. The covid patients who ended up dying on a Vent alone are...gone.

    Why do Doctors get special treatment? Is it because the harm caused by willful refusal to treat is not a violent act like "popping" a person's shoulder out?

    David is right that we are being manipulated; the anti-police movement is a critical component of every communist revolution.

    George is right that it still pisses us off.

    If we defund the local police, who is in charge? The local Antifa commies and the FBI (KGB) would gladly fill the vacuum as a more corrupt, unaccountable, overbearing police force.
    What if they just remove the bad apples? Who decides which ones are the bad apples? It would be the FBI, the incompetent bureaucrats and the Marxist revolutionary leaders.

    This organization needs to be defunded before we can see any progress with the street cop at the local level:

We are Weimar on crack, and we are probably going to get a Hitler on crack if we don't get our shit together. If we understood this now, we might be wise enough to employ something inspired by Franco's successes (with appropriate adjustments), but that's evil fascism, so we'll never do it. We'll never do anything that actually works because we're terrified of being called evil-racist-fascist-meanies.
    Here's a good article on our parallels to the Spanish Civil War by Dreher. He doesn't completely shed his loser-conservatism impulses, but he's on the right track.
    The documentary does draw some parallels, but overall it does a very poor job of focusing on the important parallels.
    We been discussing the absurdity of biological men competing in women's sports and the idiocy of post-modernist thought over objectivity; that is the big parallel.
    The documentary was focused superficially on the microcosm of the party scene in Berlin. The typical German of the time was likely as conservative as the typical Bible Belt Christian.
    Drugs, sex and rock&roll (even extreme versions) are not something new, regardless of the era and historical events.

    The book is much more comprehensive. A couple of similarities that I left out before:
    Vienna had a tremendous homeless problem, despite being one of the wealthiest cities in the world. He described opulent buildings and wealth alongside homelessness and despair. He could have easily been describing San Francisco or DC.
    The conservative dynastic powers in Austria were out of touch with reality and trying to hold on by appeasing the demands of the Marxists; Their behaviour was very similar to what we see today from the Republican party.

    What I had been taught in my formal education was that Mein Kampf was a simplistic, moronic tirade against the Jews and nothing more.
    I had always been told that it was so poorly written, so devoid of any rational thought and of such low academic quality that there was no reason for anyone to ever read the book.
    I had been told the basis of the political philosophy was aggressive police-state totalitarianism, book burning and hatred.


    I do not know what my final opinion will be, but my initial impression is that the book in reality is a highly analytical discourse on political philosophy, which advocates the values of individualism, realism, meritocracy, nationalism and strength.


    Painful as it may be, I would also recommend our Jewish friends read the book.
    Several times, Hitler describes his early repulsion and disgust with anti-semitic writings.
    He says that he only became anti-semitic himself after finally deciding Jewish-Austrians did not speak out strongly enough against Marxism.
    At that point, he began to believe not only that Jews could not be German, but that they posed a threat to the existence of the German people through their explicit or implicit support for Marxism.
    As Germany was dealing with its attempted communist revolution, he began to view Marxism as an evil that would genocide the German nation and ultimately destroy all of humanity if it was not stopped by any means necessary.

    A lot of good points have been made in the last couple of pages. From my research and understanding: Police have an increased occurrence of people with psychopathic personalities or traits. This is well documented and the research is searchable. The problem with getting rid of psychopaths is that they are psychopaths... they know how to get what they want and avoid trouble . However, many are so impulsive and goal driven they will eventually make a really dumb mistake... now it will be on camera. As much as I hate street culture and dislike BLM... they are shining a light on this... but only the race part and only the killings. The bad cops are not necessarily doing the killings, they are the ones we saw in the video above. So the decent cops get labeled bad for a justified act because the bad cops who are doing the “ruffing up”don’t get the light shined on them. I hope that makes some sense. This may be helpful still to us white folk who get involved with one of these psycho police officers.

    Also, the police are the thin line between chaos and order in a society that wants prosperity with rules. Police were created directly from the formation of capitalistic societies.

    A point I made last year in this thread. But, like my challenge to the True Disbelievers here about how getting an annual flu shot or periodic colonoscopy is not being a "good boy". It's simply something to do since in the main it saves lives.

    But, none of this will salve the massive butt hurt of those who sit back and just bitch. Not so different from the drunks in bars who turn into Captain Guts after a six pack but can't be bothered to get off their bar stool.

    I wouldn't be surprised if there were an inordinate number of psychopaths in the profession, but I also don't believe that it takes a psychopath to do the things these shitty cops are doing. In every genocide, there are plenty of ordinary men doing despicable things. I also believe there are plenty of ordinary (non-psychopath) men and women police officers doing despicable things. The foundation for this becomes rooted in the concept that the victims are not humans. Once that can be established, then doing these things to people becomes frighteningly simple.

    I often wonder if their perception of the people they interact with changes such that they see them as less and less human over time. In combat, they usually pull troops out after a certain amount of time because they need to decompress. I could be mistaken, but I've never heard of such a thing being done with police. You just get 20 years of men hitting their wives, drunks puking in your car, and crackheads lying to you. I wonder how long it takes to desensitize to the point that the people you are dealing with are no longer people?

    One thing is for certain: If you can take a 78 year old woman and POP her shoulder, and then brag about it, you certainly do not see her as a human. By proxy, I feel that doing such a thing has also qualified you to be removed from the human race.

    It's because their maliciousness is passive aggressive. The doctor denying a treatment always does so "with the patient's best interests in mind". And very importantly, there is no representative visual act to sear into your brain.

    "Shoulder go pop" = masculine violence.

    "It's for your own good" = feminine violence.

    We are far more strongly conditioned to abhor masculine violence, which is why it is so much more effectively restrained (the ancient art of civilization). But feminine tactics are how the Marxists have been able to wreak absolute havoc, including mass murder, and you can still safely wear a hammer and sickle in public. "Mommy's heart was in the right place, but she made some mistakes." Motherland vs Fatherland.

    Now extrapolate that to all ego-feeding positions of authority, power and wealth. Only then can we, as a society, learn to recognize and eliminate these people from positions where they can do harm to humanity.

    Sociopaths in positions of power hire and empower other sociopaths. They know how to identify and lock-in the loyalty of other sociopaths. This practice helps them hide that they are actually monsters. "Blending in" is a top priority and takes a great deal of effort and planning.

    I'm convinced that most of what we've researched and documented in this thread is the work of sociopaths. Those cops are sociopaths, just like anyone who purposefully lies about alternative treatments and instead kills by vent...is a sociopath. The people in charge of the media...are sociopaths. They purposefully propagandize medicine resulting in the death of 80,000-100,000 Americans according to analysis I mentioned in an earlier post (Catherine Austin Fitts video). The people in the CDC who censor/deny alternative therapies in order to bypass clinical trials for experimental injections...are sociopaths.

    NONE OF US WOULD DO THOSE THINGS. We are humans, and we have empathy. You have to grasp what it means to be incapable of empathy. Oh, and they hide is so well...they parrot our behaviors.

    These cops must be eliminated from positions of authority. Rip's comment about her son is a sad fact. All men know this.

    BUT, our real focus needs to remain on the sociopaths that can destroy humanity. They have become true Weapons of Mass Destruction. The house is on fire and the arsonists are completely visible now. These monsters want us to focus on lowly, sadistic cops. It's a distraction.

    These people are sick, and there's only one cure: the people waking up and learning to see who is shaking the jar.
