Awesome awesome post, maybe the best one you’ve done that I’ve read.

So true how many people came to America with nothing but the hope for freedom and a better life. No other nation in the history of the world comes even close to what America represents. And yet we are allowing the degenerates, scum, maggots - the worst of our society to tear this country down, and destroy it. Not just the Marxist storm troopers, as represented by BLM and antifa, but by the political class and the bureaucratic swamp. These monsters have to be rejected and resisted by using any and all means necessary. There is no room for any negotiation or compromise with them. They are the embodiment of pure evil. It does come down to the simple fact, it will either be us or them. There is no middle ground.

Excellent post.

My paternal grandmother was nearly sent back to Ireland in 1925, because she wore eyeglasses. I guess that the doctors performing the exams were feeling magnanimous that day.

My cousins were also thrilled to host my wife and I 3 times and met a couple of grandma's younger siblings. Like you, we saw the family farm and the house she grew up in was still standing, as a barn.

Our ancestors risked it all for a whisper of a chance at freedom for themselves and future generations. My parents and grandparents would be dismayed at what has come to pass.

As a society we have fallen so far. We have put our trust in people that are morally and ethically bankrupt. I don't see how this ends well...

Absolutely! If we are weaklings, then what was all that sacrifice about? Surely we can afford the same inconvenience in our lives to show some backbone? Critical thinking skills? To know that their suffering was only to bring about a generation that solely speaks idiot? No way. Granted, it is not yet the same as they suffered. YET. Having to wipe your ass with a corncob is not suffering. People need to put their lives into perspective and know that. My ancestors died for the freedom that I have today. I do not take that fact lightly. Amen STL! I am with you.

Excellent post SheThinksLiberty! My grandparents came through Ellis island from Ireland and Poland. They settled in Massachusetts. I recall driving through Cambridge in the summer of 2020 to go visit my niece in Arlington. My wife and I were headed to Maine for a vacation. We lived in Kauai, Hawaii at the time, otherwise known as "mask hell" - the last county in the USA to drop mask mandates. 99% of the people in Cambridge, regardless of what they were doing, were fully masked up. The compliance was worse than Germany in the 1930's. It's indoctrination. Tucker Carlson recently interviewed the author of "The Indoctrinated Brain" - an amazing book that shows the purpose of the spike protein - to overwrite the hippocampus with indoctrination messages and strip people of their unique, individual nature. The government idiots knew this way back when we had the original SARS. You can't make this stuff up. I no longer communicate with a group of people who were "friends" pre-2020; I cannot because they are amazingly stupid, in the groupthink-Bonhoeffer sense.

Thanks for the great post.

Peace.

Beautiful and resonant. A great lens - our ancestry - to view the current mess from. (Got grandparents that came here from Ireland too.)

So many important lessons found right in our own lineages and we don't have to go back that far, to see them. Thanks, SadieJay.

Oh my God in heaven do I love this beyond almost anything I've read about those (hopefully) disgraced fucks who trembled with oh so much fear even as the weeks and then months passed with every chance for them to finally see it was all lie after lie after more lies, spewed from the mouths of total frauds or evil greedy imposters who would count their growing piles of Benjamins with dark yet glowing eyes, never seeming to pause and think, or know, or understand, or give a single fuck about the damage and destruction these greedy fucking clowns were visiting upon the untold millions of victims of their nonstop lies and greed, which made me always wonder which group I loathed more for the damage that either the fearful tiny little bleating sheep or the soulless evil perps have done, and are doing, to our poor little kids.

Epic piece, thank you. I was just looking out of the window of the cigar store where I work part time, gazing in the direction of the long gone tiny apartment building where my ancestors rolled cigars for a living in this city, 160 years ago. I have what I have because of THEM. Freedom is ours for the keeping!

When I hear a certain group of people who have lived here in this country for generations and are now demanding reparations, I wonder if they truly wish their ancestors had never been sold into slavery so that they, their descendants, would now be residing in the land of their ancestors. We should all be thankful for the sacrifices are our ancestors had to make, whether willing or forced, so that we could enjoy the freedom, liberty and opportunities here.

The signers of the Declaration of Independence, like so many of our military veterans, willingly pledged their lives, fortunes and sacred honor while faced with seemingly insurmountable odds to obtain and secure our independence and freedom. We should all be so courageous.
