    Charlottesville and Truth

    By Earick Ward

    Those who control the narrative, control the truth. Following Charlottesville, all must understand the broader context of current events -- the conservative movement (not to be confused with media created Alt-Right or White Nationalists) desires the restoration of America's founding principles, as documented in the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

    The principles of freedom are universal (all men), and are granted by God. Our Founding documents enshrined these rights, and were "exceptional" in their development and institutionalization.
    There is a counter movement that seeks America's destruction, and the imposition of a new covenant, predicated on the wisdom of man, or more particularly, a select group of men, who seek to manage the affairs of all man.
    These two contradictory principles are reflected as liberty or tyranny. Freedom or totalitarianism. Charlottesville was a "shot heard 'round the world" of the opening salvo in the final battle between these two worldviews.
    What is remarkable (about our current culture), is the "virtue signaling" and "moral superiority" maintained by those that control the dominant (Leftist) narrative. It is not possible, as President Trump asserted that “all parties” are to blame for the violence perpetrated at the ill-named “Unite the Right” event in Charlottesville. The Left controls the narrative, and has a lock on what is determined to be “hate.”


    Washington Post headline: "Trump lit the torches of white supremacy in Charlottesville. We must extinguish them."
    The Media, local Authorities, and in this instance, Virginia’s Governor, Terry McAuliffe determined, before a word was spoken, and/or a step was taken, in the “permitted” March that “White Nationalists” (whatever that is) were haters. Disregard that countless prior Black Lives Matter events (sanctioned and unsanctioned) called for the murder and suppression of white people, generally, and white cops, specifically. And/or antifa events, where violence was perpetrated against, again, predominantly white people.
    What is truth? Who determines truth? What if, what is true, is contradictory to the culturally approved "narrative" of truth? If the Left (or any entity) can control what is deemed hate, then they can control the populace.
    Are we (you and I) prepared to stand on truth, if the "culturally accepted narrative of truth" contradicts "Universal truth?
    "All men are created equal", by our Creator.
    While man has not always fulfilled "this promise", America, and her people have worked towards this endeavor. Our humanity (and God's hope) dictates that we continue to pursue this truth.
    There are forces that seek to tear this promise apart. It serves the Totalitarian to divide us by; race, class, gender, political affiliation, ad infinitum? A common people, striving towards a common, Universal Truth is a threat to those who seek to control. Fissures, wedges, lies, are inroads to destruction. Utopia cannot be fulfilled [seemingly], until America is destroyed.

    It is up to us (you and I) to stand on the truth. (come what may)



    A New (cultural) Revolution is upon us. The next 12-24 months will determine our future. Liberty or Tyranny. Lies or Truth.

    I feel like I already said in another thread much of what this piece says. Perhaps this author is leaning slightly more towards giving "white nationalists" a pass than I, but I'm not sure about that either. I think he's more likely just questioning the media narrative including the moniker of "white nationalists" more than he's giving them a pass, but whatever, the thoughts expressed seemed familiar to me nonetheless.

It's for certain though, that the fact they had a permit doesn't absolve them of at least partial responsibility for same.

    Government ordering the removal of Robert E. Lee statues, or any other symbol or tribute to the Confederacy, likewise is anathema to the First Amendment, as well as to the letter and intentions of the rest of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. The fact that Virginia and 10 other Confederate states were forced through violence to unwillingly continue the once-voluntary association that they freely entered into between the 1780s and 1860s, was our first clue that the First Amendment, nor any other, meant anything towards protecting the rights of any American going forward.

    For the record, it was a Republican who repealed by fiat the Constitution during the War of Northern Aggression. McAuliffe's status as a modern-day Democrat is irrelevant to the Constitution's status as a meaningless historical document that holds no sway on behalf of American's rights anymore, if indeed, it ever did. Dem vs. Rep, white vs. black, native vs. immigrant and more, are all pretenses promulgated to keep us divided, and it's working like a charm. Just think what could be accomplished in Charlottesville and beyond if all The People in attendance over the last 48 hours were working towards the common goal of throwing off government-imposed chains that it has no constitutional authority to shackle them with. I realize that's a pipe dream, but that fact is because people are so easily-led by evil, not because what I'm saying isn't the truth.

    White nationalists suck as much as Antifas and BLM'ers, but none of them suck as bad as government, and they (and "we") are all counted amongst government's natural and common enemies. Government has nothing to worry about in its insatiable appetite for our rights. We all have cannibalized that which We, The People combined in an effort to create - human freedom. And We, The People never sought a permit from government to do it. Permission from government to stand against government action is no way to legitimize standing against said action. In fact, the very act of seeking permission itself, delegitimizes the notion that those asking for it are free, as they themselves don't even believe it if they participate in asking for permission to exercise it.

    Charlottesville was/is a government-run conspiracy no matter which sub-set of participants asked for and got permission to be there. They were all enemies of the state, not because of their positions on any subject, but because they were gifted freedom by God, and government is anathema to freedom.

There is ample evidence that government manipulated the events to go down just exactly as they did, even to include timing the day of violence to coincide with Soros' birthday.

    If everything in the above video was true throughout the weekend, then all that can be said is, "Congrats white nationalists, you got played by the government that you contracted away your rights to demonstrate to by asking permission to exercise your rights in the first place."

    That media would/will never hold government accountable, nor give anyone associated with organizations limited in their purpose to white people any justification for existing at all, should surprise no one, least of all the aforementioned white organizations. They volunteered to be maligned, and they are getting exactly what they volunteered for.

    But hey, it turns out that white nationalists and/or the Alt-Right and the ACLU joined forces in this instance. One might've expected with such an unusual and unexpected pairing, that we would've seen many minutes of video footage of pigs flying about. Anyone see anything like that?
