. . .
OK. Let's get something straight.
The Left, which supposedly holds the political power, has not yet been able to change the much less popular 2nd Amendment... to say they could change the 1st shows three major things:
1. Once again, you know jack shit of what you're talking about when it comes to the American system.
2. The utter ridiculous difficulty that is required to alter the US Constitution.
3. Your ignorance of the FACT that despite what you think, that the Left does not actually control the power necessary to alter the Constitution... in fact they have so little power to effectively alter the Constitution that it is actually the Right that is closer to being able to alter the US Constitution on a whim.
Allow me to explain, oh blackpilled idiot, the exact game required to ALTER the US Constitution. There's two main methods. We'll go over the first because it's the only one the Left even has a minor CHANCE at using, the second is so far out of their league that it is actually the US Right that is closing in on the required power to be able to use it.
FIRST... to ALTER the Constitution requires an amendment pass the US House with a two-third majority vote. (Issue #1: Democrats only control 51% of the House of Representatives). And then an amendment must pass the US Senate with another two-thirds majority. (Issue #2: Democrats only control 51% of the US Senate).
If an amendment manages to pass both those that's NOT ENOUGH. It then is sent out to the STATES for a Vote and need 3/4ths of the States to ratify (pass) the amendment. Let's just count states where each party controls the
Legislative and Executive branches at present. Democrats have total control of... 13 States... that is 26%. Republicans on the other hand? 23 States or 46%. The remaining 14 States are of mixed governments and even if you, somehow, added ALL of them to the Democrat's total you're still TEN STATES SHY of the required number to amend the Constitution.
So, before you wave around your "woah all is lost the Progressives are unstoppable bullshit" how about you actually LEARN what is required to alter things like the US Constitution. There's a reason the Democrats haven't tried passing a Constitutional Amendment since the failure of the so-called Equal Rights Amendment in the 1980s and its explicitly because the actual facts on the ground for amending the Constitution are much more in favor of the Right.
Oh, as to the second way to amend the Constitution? That requires two-thirds of the State legislatures to call for a Constitutional Convention to propose amendments that then are required to be ratified by 3/4ths of the State Legislatures. In other words, once again it depends on STATE LEGISLATIVE POWER which greatly favors the Right in the US, not the Left.
You know, if you are going to call others idiots, take a look into a mirror first.
You are acting precisely like the oh-so-smart conservatives have been for the last several decades... "it will never happen"... and then it does.
To explain it to your shortsighted ass: I am not talking in any specific time stamps. I am not talking in terms of what is possible
right now. What I am talking about is
what the Left is aiming for. And unless you (as in, American conservatives) get your head screwed on straight, unless you realize that, yes, the Left is
serious about it, then you are basically helping the Left.
True, what I have written may be impossible.
Right now. But it is not going to stay impossible forever. You are acting like a regular smoked-up Republican, saying that "muh laws", "muh Constitution"...
Get this through your skull:
the Left does not care. They never had, they never will. If they cannot alter the Constitution,
they will simply ignore it. They are doing that already anyway (look at all the gun control laws - every single one of them is outright unconstitutional from what I can tell, yet they are there to stay).
The politics are the art of the possible. But for the Left, their rhetoric has long stated what they want. American leftists have been attacking the
very foundational principles of the United States from the very beginning. While the so-called conservatives are battling it over relatively irrelevant stuff such as the White House and the Congress, the Left have been doing everything in their power to make sure that the next generation of voters are leftists. While the Right is thinking about how to win the Congress, the Left is thinking about how to indoctrinate your children that they become even more leftist than they themselves are.
And they have
already succeeded.
Today's Republicans are de facto leftists. They are only right wing relative to the absolute Marxist insanity that is the Democrat Party. But how many true conservatives - that is, paleoconservatives - do you think are there in the Republican Party? Donald Trump was one of rare paleoconservatives, and
quite a few Republicans blew up the moment he arrived. The only reason opposition was not more significant was that Trump enjoyed wide popular support.
But even with that popular support,
what exactly has Trump achieved? What did he do to undermine the
real roots of the Left's power in the United States?
As far as I can tell, absolutely nothing.
Educational system is still dominated by the Left.
Mainstream media are still dominated by the Left.
Alternative media are being besieged by the Left - if you compare how free Internet was only ten years ago, today's Internet is the outright People's Republic of Tyranny. And it is still getting worse.
So where, exactly, is the Right winning
that actually matters? Bloody hell, can you tell me single
major area where the Right is
putting up the fight? And please don't come up with some utterly irrelevant thing such as "gun rights" - Left obviously isn't going to waste their energy on low-significance shit while there is still major fish to chew. I mean, sure, if they can take it in a low-effort sweep, they will (as they did in Europe). But it is overall irrelevant, and they know it is irrelevant.
What matters is education and indoctrination. The Left has managed to take these areas, and is now taking over courts of law (or maybe they already had, I'm not entirely sure). Humans are, by their nature, dumb sheeple - by and large, they will think what the educational system and the media tell them to think. The Left is playing the long game. Everything you have listed? It will not matter unless the Right manages to win, or at least stop the Left's advance, in the indoctrination game.
Left doesn't need to win
against the Republican party. Turning the Republican party into a bunch of leftists is much easier, if maybe more time consuming. But they are already halfway there.
I am not saying
all is lost. But if the Right is to have any chance at stopping the Left, they have to realize how the Left is playing the game. Naive people like you are the main reason why we are losing: while the Right is fighting for the Parliament, the Left is taking over kindergartens and schools. And these are far more important than a bunch of stuck-up geriatrics.
Again: Constitution does not matter. Amendments do not matter. Laws do not matter. Legislation does not matter. Representation does not matter. This is not a legal war,
this is a war of ideas. The only thing that matters is indoctrination - education and propaganda. The end.
THIS IS THE LEFT:
You
really think you can fight
that with
laws?
Get real.
