A Letter To The Left

Observations on How We Got Here.

To The Radical Leftists Out There,

I’m not writing this to engage in schadenfreude but to educate.

I know some of you are frightened, angry and you’re acting out in very public displays and emotional tantrums. The conspiracy theories are flying around and I’m not speaking to those people because you can’t reason someone out of something they hadn’t reasoned themselves into so I’m skipping that crowd. They can come back when they’ve calmed down.

I’m writing to those who have posed some questions. Let’s start with one in particular. There was a question being asked for four years running and some on your side were calling for the imprisonment of anyone who dared to ask this question…Where Were 18 Million People During This Election?

And that’s a great question to ask. We should go back and audit the hell out of that vote. Even today. I’d bet my entire stack of Flare tokens that we’ll find out the facts one way or the other, however, you wanted people jailed for that or worse.

I should let every one of you know before I go any further. I’m registered Independent. I’ve always been, I always will be. I’ve also always voted independent since I was old enough to vote. I was proud the first time I cast my vote. I was under no impression that the candidate I backed would win but I only knew about him, thanks to MTV back in those days. They featured a lot of third-party candidates and I had to use snail mail to send off to find out what the candidate was about. I did that a lot. The internet made that so much easier. At the time, Republicans were defending the wealthy fatbacks, the military-industrial complex and didn’t particularly care for the middle class or the poor. The Democrats, by comparison, loved to put on a friendly face but every “gift” from them had a colossal price tag and you’d be handed the bill for it. To me, at that time and many others, neither of these parties were worth voting for. Each of them were only arguing over what rights to strip citizens of. They were two sides to a coin I found worthless. I’ve endured all the bullshit rhetoric from both sides and both sides have ever only wanted me to play team sports. I wouldn’t. I was that weird kid in Civics class that found our system fun and interesting. I found our rights and the origin of the restrictions on government fascinating. I also understood that it entailed certain duties and responsibilities so I never had an issue serving on a jury or going out to vote. I’ve always done both without ever trying to get out of doing them.

It was painful listening to people going “Yeah but what can you do?” Plenty if you just paid a little attention.

So, to be quite frank here, I’m a two-time Trump voter. Why? Because during his first term, I might have been struggling a little but it was nothing that kept me up at night. When Biden took office, I understood the struggle was about to get even harder…and it did. I didn’t alienate anyone from my circles, even if they voted for him. I had plenty of people over the last four years suddenly jettison me, though. There was never anything good enough. It was always going to be a struggle session. When that was asked of me, I said “Hard No” each and every time save for one: The Jab. Yeah I did the bare minimum to inoculate myself from job loss. That came from your side. When you made a movie or TV show I didn’t care for, you said it wasn’t for me. When it failed, you blamed me. You claimed that I, a straight, white male who is working like hell to make ends meet, was the source of all that was evil. Meanwhile, I’m working, playing games when I can, taking care of things in my immediate vicinity. That was it. You claimed that if I questioned the image I’m about to show you, I should be jailed.

Personally, I’m willing to put money where mouth is. Let’s go back and genuinely audit 2020. Let’s see who actually won that. If you win, you get my Flare tokens…all of them. Happily handed over. Who knows? Today, they may only be worth a penny but tomorrow…well it might make you wealthy. Something I’d actually like to see. Here’s the best part, you don’t have to do anything or put up anything. Just accept the results same as me. That’s it. You’re so sure they existed, we’re sure they didn’t.

Since 2014 or even before, people like me have been berated, ridiculed, pointed at, stepped on and told “Just say the line and…” and what? There was never a moment where I would be in your good graces so I did nothing at all.

2016 came around and I still voted for Darrell Castle, The Constitution Party Candidate. I didn’t care for either candidate but under it all, I was hoping like hell Hillary wouldn’t get the office. She didn’t. Through all four years, I remained lukewarm on Trump. I usually go cold on a President within the first couple of years or sometime in that first term. Trump was different.

Here’s the thing, I’m used to my pick losing. I don’t exile people over it. Ever. I’m all grown up, y’all, that’s just a thing with me. In fact, right now, if you voted for Harris, I don’t care. If we were friends before, that’s not changing. It certainly didn’t when Biden got the office and if you voted for him, whatever. Doesn’t matter to me. We were still friends then too. Now, if you are among the group advocating for families and friendships to further split, then it’s clear you’re backing a party of division because you comprise and embody that; Division.

The policies that came from Biden’s administration were disastrous for us and it’s factual. The party you backed has been using the media to gaslight everyone into believing a narrative that is easily countered every time you purchase anything. It’s all up in price. Taxes have gone straight up insane. Last year, people who changed nothing found out they owed in taxes but for what? When it’s right in our faces, we will not ignore that.

The media was weaponized against us so, we became the media ourselves. You could only censor us for so long before we found alternatives and ways around you. It’s what some of us do. We get pretty creative.

We know where the blame rests for this. You know it too. Your party, your media, all of it was right there in your favor. You can’t claim oppression. You became the oppressor and acted out four years of a revenge fantasy and many of us were just thankful there was a limit to it, otherwise, you’d have found that we’re done with it in a way that was much worse. We exercised a peaceful option. You backed a candidate that didn’t insult half the nation…well, have a look.

It was well over half. What you’re looking at with this county-by-county map of this year is us telling you we’re not going to do this anymore. You had a great run but it wasn’t going to last in this country. When we said “we’re going back” we weren’t kidding.

Now I’m not going to sit here and insult you. I won’t. I know there are some of you acting as to exile still works but look at that map again. My biggest question to some of you is How Will You Continue To Sustain Your Own Model? I mean, do whatever you like. Sooner or later, any company still practicing those initiatives will go broke very quickly. New, smaller ones will take their place. That’s the point of this country. Too Big To Fail Does Not Exist.

Again, you had major corporations, hedge funds and tons of investment money…capital. Major “capitalists” backed you with …venture capital and they’ve seen first-hand that there’s no money in it. The initiatives are being seen for what they are, racist policies.

…this is just America. The foreign policy has been near-catastrophic with our enemies sabre-rattling and showing us no respect whatsoever because we’ve had weak and ineffectual leadership giving our money to anyone and everyone but us. They straight up neglected people in the hurricane zones of Helene and Milton. Of all the times to faceplant, that was not the time. Anyone with a Trump sign in their yard was skipped by FEMA’s leadership. People who lost everything in Helene were offered a $750 loan if they qualified. People’s children are being taken from them because they haven’t miraculously created a brand new home and have been trying to sort out this mess since the damage was discovered. We’re all sick of seeing things like this.

Within days of Trump’s election, suddenly Hamas wants an end to the fighting, The Taliban wants to cease any hostilities, Putin supports a peace agreement between Russia and the Ukraine and he’s not coming off the petrodollar which, on a long enough timeline, puts BRICS under the dirt where it belongs. The Dow Jones surged 1,500 points, Crypto is having a series of great days with Bitcoin topping at $92K as of the time of this writing. People who receive tips at their jobs won’t have to report that and they shouldn’t.

What your entire side, the people you back, need to understand is that we’re insistent on the complete and total return of our liberties, an end to the massive surveillance state, cut all government waste, and finally, just for starters, a complete and total return to Constitutional values. Liberty Is Humankind’s Natural State.

I remember back in 2008, people telling me that the Democrat party was anti-war and Republicans were War Hawks wanting perpetual war. Yes, something flipped, alright. The rhetoric did. As soon as your party had power did they eliminate The PATRIOT Act? End the wars in a way that wouldn’t come back to bite us? No. Trump was pulling us out of Afghanistan in a way that made sense and ending all of the Bush and Obama-era wars by doing one thing. He targeted their leadership. He took them out. We had respect even from those who hated our guts. Our economy was doing great. It was the Democrats that began the fear campaign that was COVID.

Your side backed a new war…against both you and me. People lost tons of value in their retirement plans. Some had to push back their retirements. You didn’t care about that. The sustained campaign caused mental illness in both children and adults. School performance plummeted.

It’s time for some self-reflection because, if you scroll back up to that map, you’ll see we’re done and we won’t be listening to it anymore. In fact, that map illustrates one thing…we have better map coverage than Verizon.

…Can You Hear Us Now?

If any of the wild conspiracy theories were to be correct, Trump would have done all of that in his first term. He had four years to do that and he was busy making us prosperous…including you. I think he’ll do it again and, if he doesn’t, he’ll be held to the fire for it along with any and everyone that comes in with him. That’s the difference. Yes, I voted for Trump. Even some lifelong Democrat friends voted Trump. They’re as sick of all of this as I am. Again, none of us are going to deny what’s right in front of us.

You don’t get to wage a cultural war against us and expect to join you. You don’t get to gaslight us and expect us to believe you. You don’t get to insult us, denigrate us and expect, realistically, that we’ll support you because you grace us with your presence.

My advice is do what I’m doing, take that Wait & See approach. Quit reacting to everything and finally, turn off the media because it’s not your friend, they’re not here to help, they are liars, thieves and writers of bad checks.

Not to mention Harris’ campaign had billions backing it and finished $20 million in debt…but she was supposed to help our economy? Even you have to admit, that’s a huge tell.

Get out there, look up facts and invest in something, somewhere. Little by little. I did it, you can too. I’m watching my crypto go pretty insane right now and it’s great. You can live however you like. Have your relationships, your marriages, etc. Just leave the children out of it. Be anything you want to be. Whatever you do, start your life of accomplishment today. Start taking steps you can immediately take today, create a plan and go through with it. Better yourselves and your situation, the doors are completely open. You’ll lose your fear, you’ll see through the lies you’ve been told. Seriously, this is like the time the media and the church had nearly everyone convinced D&D was evil. When I found out it wasn’t, that’s when the tide turned for me. Do that today. Surround yourself with people who are doing the same as you and do your due diligence and watch how your life changes.

Today’s your day to start your new journey. Question is, will you? That’s completely up to you.
