Is sedition a path to Civil War?

What does sedition look like and where will it lead?

First; for the record, I don’t like President Trump and I did not vote for him, I also don’t like Clinton and I didn’t vote for her either, in my opinion neither of them should be President.  Who I actually voted for is none of your business.

Second; I think Trump is an arrogant narcissist, he’s ignorant as to how the United States overall government works, he’s ignorant of how our justice system works, and he’s exceptionally ignorant of the totality of ramifications that can happen simply because he, the President of the United States of America, opens his loose cannon mouth and says or writes something out of context or just acts like a narcissistic blow-hard.

Third; Trump IS our President and as such our country needs him to be successful at his job, it is essential to the prosperity, safety, and the future of the United States of America.  The difference between the anti-Trump resistance and me is that I actually want our President and our country to be successful, as I have very President during my lifetime.  The anti-Trump resistance is doing everything they possible can to make it impossible for the Trump administration and Congress to govern and they are ginning up anything they can into a torrent of hysterical hyperbole in an effort to remove Trump from office.  Like Trump, the anti-Trump resistance does not understand the totality of ramifications of their words.  What we are seeing is literally sedition in it’s purest form that’s trying to create as much chaos as possible in an effort to subvert the United States system of government and they are trying to sell it to the population by means of rationalizing propaganda that is being distributed far and wide by a colluding media.

Moving on…

“The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact. Their newspapers and propaganda carefully cultivate every fissure of disunity, every crack in the common front against fascism.”  Henry A. Wallace

I have never seen the likes of the propaganda warfare that is currently taking place in the United States of America.  I remember during the depths of the Cold War with the USSR there was lots of propaganda spread but I don’t think anything in the history of the United States (certainly not within my lifetime) can hold a candle to what’s happening right now.  The ginned up seditious propaganda we are seeing from the media is a deliberate prevision of facts and extrapolations of absurdity that’s hammering a wedge in the fissures of disunity which they try to justify with piles and piles of unethical rationalizations.  The anti-Trump resistance has no interest in real truth, they are only interested in things they can twist into absurd conspiracy theories in an effort to gin up the population into a frenzy against Trump; this is sedition in it’s purest form.  

“The media’s the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that’s power. Because they control the minds of the masses.” Malcolm X

This quote from Malcolm X has taken a while for it to totally sink into the minds of media outlets, but they now fully understand their power and they are wielding that power irresponsibly in ways that the authors of the Constitution could have never imagined possible.  

Since the Presidential election in November 2016 the public has been unequivocally inundated with negative propaganda regarding anything President Trump says or does or is remotely connected to, this propaganda blanket is choking out the light of rational thinking and replacing it absurdly unethical rationalized thinking and the propaganda is coming directly from the media.  The rights granted in the 1st Amendment are now being used directly against We the People as a tool to brainwash the masses with the propaganda hammer of the anti-Trump resistance.  This in-your-face seditious propaganda that is layered full of assumptions, innuendo and outright fallacious accusations that are not supported by real facts, as an old Army buddy of mine says “they’re extrapolating into utter bull shit”.  The media is taking a smidgen of fact and extrapolating that to absurd levels of theories, it’s as if the anti-Trump resistance has started to use the same tactics as wacko wing-nut conspiracy theorists hiding in their basements wearing aluminum foil hats.  We have entered an intense era of truth be damned seditious propaganda and it’s causing those that succumb to the propaganda to be irretrievably broken from reality, they are seeing blazing conspiracy conflagrations when in most cases there isn’t even the remote spark of actual truth.

The anti-Trump resistance media has completely flushed all ethics regardless of historical journalistic norms.

“If people in the media cannot decide whether they are in the business of reporting news or manufacturing propaganda, it is all the more important that the public understand that difference” Thomas Sowell

The New York Times, for one, made its choice and they made their choice publicly known.  Jack Marshall of Ethics Alarms accurately stated that the New York Times “a card-carrying member of the “overturn the election” cabal—we know this because it stated last August that defeating Trump justified tossing journalism ethics into the trash, and because since the election, its pages have from the book reviews to the op-ed pages have been filled anti-Trump propaganda.”  What Mr. Marshall was referring to in his blog was on the August 7, 2016 a New York Times article Trump Is Testing the Norms of Objectivity in Journalism  the author Jim Rutenberg  unethically rationalizes that, “Mr. Trump’s candidacy is “extraordinary and precedent-shattering” and “to pretend otherwise is to be disingenuous with readers.”  It would also be an abdication of political journalism’s most solemn duty: to ferret out what the candidates will be like in the most powerful office in the world.  It may not always seem fair to Mr. Trump or his supporters. But journalism shouldn’t measure itself against any one campaign’s definition of fairness. It is journalism’s job to be true to the readers and viewers, and true to the facts, in a way that will stand up to history’s judgment. To do anything less would be untenable.”  Since Mr. Rutenberg wrote that article the New York Times has gone out of its way to live up to its unethical dumping of journalistic ethics and spread layers and layers of what they identify as truth and facts but honest people, real honest people, call it anti-Trump propaganda.   The New York Times is only one small piece (with a distribution across the United States and the world) of the propaganda army waging a propaganda war of sedition against the President of the United States of America, there are many many more just like them, anti-Trump bashing regardless of truth, reason, or facts has become a badge of honor to the resistance.  The ends justify the means is the self deluding deception that the anti-Trump resistance seditious propaganda is telling people and the throngs of self-deluded followers allow themselves to believe it.

“Propaganda does not deceive people; it merely helps them to deceive themselves.”  Eric Hoffer

As for the question I posed in the title of this blog, “What does sedition look like?”; it looks exactly like what the anti-Trump resistance is doing.  The anti-Trump resistance is conducting a seditious propaganda civil war!  Those on the ideological left side of the political aisle that are not an active part of the resistance are not speaking out against this intentional sedition, they’re keeping their traps shut and by doing so they are condoning sedition; they are equally culpable for the consequences.

“The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions.”  Leonardo da Vinci

Why is all this happening?  I think it’s Traumatic Political Stress Disorder (TPSD) that’s driving people into a histrionically malevolent state separating them from rational thought.  Is “TPSD” Self-Evident; yes I think it’s self-evident!

Wanting the President to fail is not logical!

“Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.”  Buddha

The intentional subversion by means of sedition NEEDS to stop!

A seditious propaganda civil war can “only” lead to one thing, real civil war.

I wonder what the resistance battle flag will look like.
