The Hunt

David Codrea:

It’s telling that The Hunt is coming from an industry that relies on fantasy depictions of gun use for so much of its profits and special operator class armed security for protecting its elites while simultaneously being such a major social and political influencer for disarming its customers.

I haven’t heard much about this silly tripe, but I did see one short clip where someone who was being hunted by Antifa was cowering in fear and trying (unsuccessfully) to hide.  From this little clip, it’s obvious that the “hunters” don’t understand their supposed prey.

‘Nuff said.

The object, yes every word and image in “entertainment” has an objective, is to create more hunters not to educate the existing ones. The Left already has programs for that.

For some weird reason people still don’t think that every idea and image on TV and movies is approved by State/CIA or Pentagon. Why will nobody understand this? This is why the movie should scare you.

And the Ammoland article asks who would win in real life. Well, the Left is planning to win. I don’t see that the Right has it in them to make all out war on their neighbors and government, and that’s what it will take. 99.999% of those on the Right still think that the Geneva Conventions and UN rules of engagement are a just and usable to code of ethics in war. The Right will lose, badly, and be bulldozed into trenches.

Fred: To “create more hunters” by normalizing the idea that political differences should be solved by violence.

But step away from that black pill, 5 9’s of those on the Right not having what it takes is ludicrous. Starting with the assumption that there’s 100 million people here on the Right, you really think only 1,000 people in the whole country would fight effectively if our frankly genocidal enemy starts widespread lethal violence?

Yup. Back the Blue and Support the Troops while following Geneva and UN doctrine. Nobody is going to fight back. Maybe some sporadic activity but nah.

The Right doesn’t even know that the Revolution is already underway. Cleaning out small pockets of handfuls of the self-educated will be easy for the Left. I would be shocked if even 1000 people put up organized and useful resistance.

People don’t know that it’s already started and they won’t believe it even AFTER the knock on the door. Enjoy the camps.

Fred: my first response to you is unprintable, the second is to quote Jerry Pournelle again, “Despair is a sin”, the third is a strong suggestion that Eeyores have no place in a forum like this.

Or just do the freaking math. How many of this 1,000 you don’t believe exists are here on this forum? Are you saying for example none of you, Herschel, or myself will resist a genocide? [ The remainder of what I feel like saying is unprintable. ]

I’m not despairing. I’ve got the joy of Christ Jesus in me. And “black-pill” and the other “pill” analogies are stupid, simplistic, and childish. I pray, I think things through, I read and examine history, law, nature, order, and creation, both from the point of view of the fallen and God’s Law. Having been saved by the blood of Christ later in life was a curse, now blessing. A blessing in one aspect is that I know the enemy, very well.

Why are you mad at me? I’m not going to any camp. I’ve purposed in my heart to die with my weapons, the plan being at a ripe old age of natural causes, at peace with my God, my neighbors, and my government. The choice rests first with God, and then if my neighbors and/or government decide of their own agency to make war on me, denying access to the means of war being an act of war, it’s war they’ll have.

Don’t be an angry and simplistic man; because anger causes a man to make mistakes and thoughtlessness causes a man to be over simplistic missing the complexity of the problem before us which is multidimensional and well hierarchically structured and has a strong belief system in their god on the Left, but chaotic and unstructured and Godless on the Right. Your best chance is that this lack of cohesion on the Right works to your favor. The Left’s god is a liar but they don’t know that and they hear and follow him willing to make mass extermination in his name all while not believing that he even exists. They are fanatics of the most dangerous order. The Right? Godless and lawless themselves are barely one degree from the Left thinking that race or the perverted right and wrong taught them in government run civics classes makes them smarter and righter. Pfft.

Are you willing to go full Cong even making war against those you have perceived by words and deeds to be on your side and look just like you? Most of those, only bluffing now, will fold like a low pair. Nobody is coming to save you.

At least I realize the depth of the hole that I’m in. My brothers in Christ, even the real ones, will turn on me in favor government without question whatsoever. The few that won’t, again, think that there is a moral way to wage and win a war. They are unstudied infants or Romans 13 supremacists, brainwashed by the now decades long progrom.

Fred, in this genocide scenario you’d be at peace with “your” government which is trying to kill you and yours, and that you’d be making war in response against?

“go full Cong” means explicit use of terror through brutal torture and murder of innocents, especially women, children, and unborn babies. You sure you aren’t a Fedposter? I was raised Catholic so I’m not much of a theologian, but that doesn’t sound in the least Christian to me.

Herschel: I guess I should have taken the hint when you misinterpreted a commentator’s words and responded by doxxing him and threatening his employment etc. instead of seeking clarification. I’m not hardly so sure of my interpretation of Fred’s words, but “go full Cong” does not admit to much interpretation for someone who came of political age while the Vietnam War was still raging.

You’re blog, your rules.

Ok. I’ll leave this here again. Forgive me AGAIN please Herschel, for the length. Other men are designing your children’s future. “If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.” And when it is not possible? The LORD enjoins all that He commands! What does “Thou shalt not kill” mean, to allow killing with impunity? This is false. There are a great many verses in the Holy Bible about peace and indeed Christ preached for his followers to be at peace with all. The question is, when a government has an articulated plan to leave you subjected regardless of if you are evangelizing for Christ or not, then what? Most bible verses about submission and peace are in the context of persecution of Christians for their evangelizing or just because they are Christian. If it were persecution of Christians for being Christian that’s one thing to which I would say, crucify me in the town square while I shout the glories of the salvation wherewith Christ has made me free. But it’s another thing when your government seeks general gun confiscation to reduce all men to abject subjugation outside of any belief in God or not? This is not persecution for the glory of Christ Jesus; this is an intent of war upon you. And before the American Church starts whining about Romans 13 let’s be clear; either the right of defense is ordained of God and no verse countermands another or we should have let the German government exterminate (their word) the Jews. You can’t have it both ways. Romans 13 does not amend the Laws of God, it is the Law of God and not to be trifled with on any small matter and this is no small matter my Christian brothers and sisters. The government(s) seek to be a terror for the purposes of accumulation of power unto itself against an imagined threat from a formerly free people and in so doing, their imagination is coming to life by their own fault. Nobody killed more people in the 1800’s than the American Government. It fell back to the number five or six largest mass murderer spot in the twentieth century, but good news warmongers; we’re back on top so far in the twenty first century. You must be so proud. I know what government is capable of first hand, and since one of the most prolific mass murderers in all of human history, the US Government, has turned its ire against my freedom of defense by arms, I take the threat very seriously and so should you. What if you were forced to live in the same space with Charles Manson or Jim Jones and they wanted your guns, would you be serious about gun confiscation then? “for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.” As a first step, although war is not crime, the means, motive, and opportunity of your enemy must first be firmly established… Read more »
