Charlottesville blowback, Democrats in retreat.
Here's the bibliography of Charlottesville essays I wrote. Use them to frame the following discussion of the rife bullshit of the DNC. No, this time it isn't RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA. It's Antifa and black bloc.

Charlottesville, the tail wags the dog.
The Soros' planned violent confrontation has blown up in the Dims' faces. C'ville probably accomplished what Soros wanted to do. He doesn't give a rip who gets hurt or killed.
But the DNC had another goal--a goal which failed. The Democrats crossed a line too far. They completely miscalculated the blowback arising from their aiding-and-abetting the Purple Gang. The object of this exercise, in the DNC, was solely to provoke dissension against Trump, leading to Censure, and the possibly impeachment. But as I posited in a previous essay, this would blowback on the Dems and indeed, even Nancy Pelosi with her ossified brain perceived the heat. She has now back tracked away from tacit support for her Antifa step-grandchildren.
As seen in a recent article in WaPo, she has learned something--not much perhaps. OMG, what is coming over me? In a previous essay I said something positive about Trump (for identifying the "alt-left having their share of blame for the C'ville Debacle [CD]). Now I am quoting from WaPo. These actions leave me puzzled. Regardless of whom I read or quote, nuggets in the stream of toxic wastes occasionally yield something valuable.
Pelosi condemns violent Antifa protestors.
Moving an iceberg 1 minute of a degree is quite a feat. Moving the ideology (at least as professed by We-don't need-no-stinkin'-changes Pelosi) by that seemingly infiinitessimal minute difference must be understood for what it is.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi condemned the “violent actions of people calling themselves antifa” after violence led to arrests at Bay Area protests, in the strongest criticism of left-wing protesters that any Democratic leader has made.
“Our democracy has no room for inciting violence or endangering the public, no matter the ideology of those who commit such acts,” Pelosi said in a statement released late Tuesday. “The violent actions of people calling themselves antifa in Berkeley this weekend deserve unequivocal condemnation, and the perpetrators should be arrested and prosecuted
Indeed, the spineless Dimocratic mayor of Berkeley had the same comment, this too, after making no effective response to Milo Yiannopolis' abortive attempt to speak on UCB's campus months ago:
Berkeley’s mayor, Jesse Arreguin, immediately condemned “the violence that small group of protesters engaged in against residents and the police,” accusing them of “fighting hate with hate.” This week, reporters began to ask Democrats if they would condemn the events in Berkeley
Diversion or True Change?
Now, the Camel has taken her nose out of the Trough long enough to declaim solidarity with Bernie's MFA/SP. For real? For show? My bet is that it is for show. She needs to be on the right side of at least one major issue if she is to have a realistic chance at occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Watch Booker T. Booker do the same, so as to keep in 2020 contention. Check out future Dimocratic would-be presidential contenders by those who swallow his/her bribes pride and is all in for MFA/SP.
Folks, the wheel is turning.

Antifa
is a backlash. It scares the shit out of so-called progressives.
The so-called say they're no different than the alternate right. What a fucking joke.
Who else is standing up, with force if necessary, against those who violently speak and act for the cause of tyranny?
Everybody talks about the wall that the orange one wants to build. Very few speak with force about the wall that hatred builds.
Tear the mother fucker down. If not peacefully, than with brutal, forceful action. We will kill hate by hating. /s
Bring back the guillotine. There are more than enough heads to make the Aztecs cower in shame.
The capital stairs in Washington DC though, are insufficient. Pitchforks and pillories will suffice.
Let it begin.
Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
Poetry. Sheer poetry.
sheer fiction too .... /nt

You're kidding yourself.
With the continuing respect that I have for you, I want to emphatically repeat that violence begets violence. Dr. King did not just advocate nonviolence because it was right but also because it was effective. He knew where the struggle would go if it became violent, directly to hell with a trajectory that was unendingly downward. It has its own gravitational force. The more you use it, the more you have to use it.
The most disturbing thing I saw in the video of Berkeley's verbal and physical exchanges was the assertion that if the people of Germany and eastern Europe had done this, i.e. slugged it out with violent punks, WWII would not have happened. I can't even breathe in enough oxygen to begin to contemplate how uninformed that is.
yep, agreed, non-violent resistance
never had a chance in Nazi Germany. AND Violent resistance too never had a chance in Nazi Germany.
I just don't know why people believe they know what it means to live and survive in a fascist regime, be it Nazi-style fascims or Stalin-style fascism.
May be people need to believe in something as to not to confront their own helplessness in their imagination of how they would react, if they were in a situation like the German and German population in the today's Eastern European countries were at that time.

Why not focus on how non-violence forced change in East Germany?
I guess the Powers That Be are afraid of giving people ideas, seeing how Pegida in Dresden has adopted the idea of silent protest marches every Monday evening, or the IB (Identitarian Movement) has adopted the tactics of Greenpeace.
I reported
in this comment space that someone had edited my previous comment. I apologize. I believe I was experiencing heat stroke. Embarrassing.
After having reported it,
I find it appears to be what I originally wrote.

I saw this comment and checked the log files and got the exact same result as this comment I made earlier:
https://caucus99percent.com/comment/293086#comment-293086
Both comments entered in the log files were worded exactly the same an had the same IP address. That's two separate instances with the same exact conclusion.
According to the log files you made a comment that was edited a few minutes later, but the wording in both comments were exactly the same and came from the same machine.
That's very strange and I have no explanation. If someone else was editing your comments the IP numbers would not match.
Thank you.
It's possible I am experiencing heat stroke.

I watched
the anti Vietnam War movement get torn apart because the government infiltrated it with people who used words a lot like yours to provoke violence. Had we remained together the country might be different today.
I have no problem with people defending themselves and others from physical attack although the positive effect of nonviolent resistance is consistently underrated. I want no interaction with people who intend to launch physical attacks on others because of the ideas they hold or the words they use however disgusting.
Hey!!
Don't disrespect the Purple Gang by comparing them to the DNC. The Purple Gang had a moral code and ethical foundation.
It is a hot mess.
When you ignore the rule of law, end free and fair elections, and shit all over human and constitutional rights in a democracy, you end up with the mess they call America.

it gets at me ... question:

Question:
I read one of your for former diaries. And there in the thread is a comment from you I would like to add a question to, as you said you are a professional medical doctor.
To a comment of native
you answered the following:
I like to ask you about the options of treating someone who was "brainwashed" using hypnosis (which I believe is probably done within the military training sessions of basic training or otherwise - but I can't tell anymore if I am paranoid or if there is something to it).
I read a book (that conveniently is in a box somewhere in Germany so that I can't look it up and my memory is so bad that I have difficulties to find it online), that tried to explain "deprogramming techniques" for people who were manipulated and heavily brainwashed. May be the de-programming technique was also based on hypnosis, the same as they were used in the programming methods used within the military (or by religious cults or traditional religious rituals).
I think this book was written before 2007. Googling it to try to find it, I see a lot of links which all cast nothing but distrust in me.
I wonder if you have some thoughts on that issue and might one day write about it ?
https://www.euronews.com/live
I am not expert in deprogramming, sorry.
Another way to look at Pelosi's statement
Most of the protests by people on the left are peaceful until the police show up all decked out in riot gear and their military equipment.
Or when a few of them infiltrate the protests and start the violence.
This reminds me of Obama's and Hillary's hypocrisy during the OWS protests and what they accused Gaddafi of doing.
