Charles’ main point is that we are not (yet) in power, and should therefore avail ourselves of whatever tactical opportunities present themselves. He responds to the argument that we should ignore easy targets, obese middle-aged cashiers for example, in favour of high-value targets such as, say, Harvard presidents, for the simple reason that we do not (yet) have the power to go after the latter. To insist we limit ourselves to sniping at generals who remain well behind the front lines, while holding our fire on the cannon fodder, is in essence to argue that we do nothing at all. Now, one could point out that we did, in fact, take down the president of Harvard ... but Claudine Gay is still a professor at Harvard, and getting paid nearly a million dollars a year, no less: her humiliation is purely cosmetic. As Haywood notes, despite the Bud Light boycott absolutely wrecking the sales of Anheuser-Busch’s former flagship beverage, so far as we know not a single person has actually been fired over the debacle. Since we cannot (yet) impose corrective action on the elite, we must, for now, focus our opprobrium on the vicious little goblins that form the main body of the leftoid horde, making examples wherever and whenever we can, pour encourager les autres. ...

Vagrant of Rhodes thinks we should win the fight, and not worry about how we win the fight.

The left has littered the field of battle with weapons of mass societal destruction, and they’ve fundamentally changed the rules of engagement. We can either keep getting cut down or pick some of those weapons up and fight back to establish parity. If you tell someone that their actions have consequences, and then refuse to enforce the consequences when you have the chance, then the rules don't matter. That's why we are here.

Vagrant suggests that conservatives are trapped in a permanent nostalgia for the 1950s, imagining that we are still playing by the Marquess of Queensbury rules, while the left is throwing molotovs. Conservatives, he says, have the complacent and cowardly mindset of civilians, when what our historical moment calls for are warriors. Unfortunately, the comfortable conditions created by technology tend to encourage the civilian personality type. ...

As to the Red Scare, it’s probably worth pointing out that McCarthy was actually right: there really were communists trying to infiltrate the Western social order; tragically for us, the communists succeeded, which is a large part of the reason why we are where we are now. ...

As to the unpopularity of the left, I do not think this is only because of their po-faced censoriousness, although there is no question that that contributes. It probably also has something to do with their vicious racial and sexual hatred, their contemptuous hostility towards Western civilization, and their propensity to emotionally abuse children to the point that those children demand that they be allowed to mutilate their genitalia, amongst a great number of other horrors.

Finally, as to Alexander’s first point, that cancellation does not teach anyone anything. Au contraire. Look around at how society has changed in just the last decade. Sure, if you’re an autistic rationalist, a contrarian ideologue, or a Bohemian free spirit, cancel culture has only made you hate the left more. But this is a fairly small fraction of the population. What about the normies? In a remarkably short period of time, they went from opposing gay marriage, to supporting it. Why? Because examples were made of a few people who opposed it, and the rest got into line. Most people are basically NPCs: they don’t follow a praxis emerging from carefully thought out philosophical systems, but simply go along with whatever they perceive the prevailing morality to be. They are not rational, nor are they principled. They simply respond to incentives, which is to say, to rewards and to punishments. Put a few heads on pikes to demarcate new social boundaries, and the normies will in general respect them. ...

This is something I wish I’d emphasized more in my own post. The left’s egregious impositions over the last generations, and its crescendo of tyrannical obscenity in the last decade, has generated an absolutely volcanic emotional charge. There are huge numbers of people who are absolutely boiling with pent-up fury. They want blood, hopefully figuratively. There is a cthonic hunger for vengeance, and as the woke left stumbles and shows weakness for the first time in a generation, that hunger will demand satiation. Whether you like it or not, things like this are going to happen a fair bit in the coming years. All that emotional energy is going to need to go somewhere.

What if you can't vote your way out of socialism?

Overwhelming popular opposition can defeat socialism, as in the former USSR.

My Youtube is being flooded by Kamala ads.

So I don't just block them but also report them for hate speech.

I put in the comments for the report "Why am I seeing ads on my YouTube from this unborn baby killing commie bitch?"

Hopefully a human being will eventually get this and shut off political ads in general for me. :)

Use Brave browser to watch Youtube. It blocks all ads. If you must use an app GrayJay app, which allows you to watch videos from YouTube, Rumble, Odysee, etc all in one places.

"Normal" means we know who is President Elect before Midnight EST on Election Day.

Spread it loud, spread it proud.

Effective Resistance
Assign EduAdmins, teachers, bureaucrats, and assorted wokies the worst tasks, rooms, goods, or food possible.

Make sure the DEI department, HR, PR, and any other wokies get the worst possible equipment.

Smack their fruits and veggies around at the checkout counter so they go bad faster. Give them the worst, Subway-grade almost expired cuts of meats.

Doordashers can run wild with fun. Licorice powder properly applied.

If you fix their computer, fix the original problem then put other crap on it to activate later so you can keep transfering wealth from wokies to resisters while reducing their productivity. Don't do this to the top leadership, but their little grovelly toad assistance, proclaim loudly that "this kind of stuff happens when people download webcams/porn/gambling programs" so their boss can hear.

Insert a handful of sugar or sand into fuel tanks of "Coexist" or "Love is Love" cars. Key their cars. Puncture their tires by accident. Let the shopping carts fly free, or leave them all around the Woke Cars so they are forced to move them to drive away. Constantly peck at their morale

Serve Wokies last and make them complain just to get service.

Mismanage spare parts, use insufficient quantities or ridiculous quantities to spoil the outcome as expensively as possible.
