Solidarity is not doable across the great breadth of the American population. That can not be a realistic goal.
We did not have it during the Revolutionary War. We did not have it during the Civil War (even within the Northern population). We did not have it during the World Wars. We did not have it during the Cold War (in all its phases).
Solidarity is not essential to saving the Republic. A different kind of cohesion is needed. And it does require sacrifice.
And, no doubt, beyond what we learn here, there have been dear sacrifices made already and moar to come. This is where we stand on the field of battle. There are different fields and different battles. But there is a time for war as there will be a time for peace.
Slow walking the inevitable is wise when preparation is all. Once prepared, and usually we can not be so well prepared that preparations are completed, just not possible, but once prepared enough, and if it is to our choosing, then, the engagement begins and can not stop until victory … or defeat.
Here we are called to the battle of ideas and memes. Not to violence. Not to violence. Not to violence. This requires discipline. And it also makes demands on fortune, providence, call it as you wish, the Good Lord, Our Savior, God Almighty. We fight because we must. In our way.
Speak to one who has fought, underground, in Poland. Solidarity was a concept, an idea, but also action. Yet the Poles were divided even then.
Love Anons all.
Godspeed.
