I voted for Trump twice for the same reasons you did and agree with practically everything in your essay.
However, I do believe that Democrats are offering their voters something valuable, which ensnares people into the current “woke” ideology: the power of moral legitimacy and superiority with very little effort on their part.
I have observed this unfold particularly clearly during the coronavirus pandemic. For the simple act of placing a piece of cloth over one’s nose and mouth, one can signal to others (and believe oneself) that one is virtuous. In addition, one is granted the power (and the moral authority) with the full backing of the state-sponsored “experts”) to tell other people what to do.
For years I have observed that jobs in low-level government bureaucracies attract the kind of person who feels powerless in real life, and grants them the authority to say “no”.
The new politics of wokeness endorsed by the current Democratic Party, legacy media, and corporations, grants some the ability to feel unearned superiority and wield power over others, with no real effort on their part, to anyone who embraces and weaponizes the ideology.
I believe this is a powerful drug that is difficult for many to resist, especially those with a more naturally collectivist mindset.
Great article, yea the Republicans are definitely better because they moved towards Trump populism and away from establishment neocon ideology, this is why we must resist the establishments attempt to try to reverse the party to what it was under Bush
Great breakdown. I think the legacy politicians are scared and it shows in their actions.
Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney and those like them, are just betting on the wrong horse. The issue is they have never had a moral foundation and just tell people what they think they want to hear, and then of course never do anything for anyone but themselves and their elite friends.
Voters are sick of the lip service, well I guess we will see if voters are sick of it. Utah and Wyoming voters need to stand up and vote these cucks out!
Neocons and Neolibs need to be scared they are causing many of the issues in this country and have been since the 1980's.
I remember reading a recent article that praised George W. Bush. It said that he would be completely out of place within today's republican party, as though he's above what the party now stands for. I don't know, the George W. Bush I remember had us involved in war. I don't know how that could slip anyone's mind. Tarl, I also wanted to let you know that you are an excellent writer. By the way, I have never watched any of your videos on youtube, I had never heard of you until I started browsing through videos on bitchute. Keep up the good work man.
Excellent. I hope you keep writing, Tarl. I just started to post my reporting here on Substack because you mentioned it yesterday (and because Wordpress deletes my reports). Please check it out because I think you would dig it. https://justintrouble.substack.com/p/critical-race-theory-what-is-it
As someone who did vote for Bush (twice) and the 20/20 hindsight of seeing how us less politically minded folks at the time were led down the primrose path of globalism, I can just hope that it can be pulled back from the brink. I love this country, for all it's faults, and I think the US can pull through (it's gone through worse) and come out better on the other end.
At this juxtaposition, its too late. I'm the most peaceful person, and it scares me. I've been in war I've been through hell. I've been homeless I been poor, no THIRD WORLD POOR. This excoriating via POSTS it means nothing. What matters is reality. And that is AMERICA is an OLIGARCHY NOW. Has been corrupt since the 80s, get ramped up in the 90s and after 2001 one has become a part of the American ZOMBIE society we now live in. Styx is honestly the most relevant NEWS/POLITICAL source its fact. If TRUMP/DeSANTIS RUN IN 2024 they will win in a landslide "GROVER CLEVELAND" style. And if he abolish the IRS he will take EVERY STATE, EVEN HAWAII. USA needs a V.A.T. tax. That will truly represent all AMERICANS and get true spending accountability.
It is quite cute how we all pretend the Dems win elections through the vote. Like the guys in Chicago are actually still voting for Democrats, I mean, they don't sense their world falling apart so they are happy to keep voting the same people in.
I agree Tarl. I voted twice for Donald Trump. With the Neo-Cons fighting to get back it makes me question whether to remain in the Republican Party or become an Independent or a member of the Libertarian Party. I would lower myself to join the Democratic Party or any other left wing party.

Well done post!
Am I the only one who sees in Lindsay Graham the puffy, pouch face of a heavy drinker?
