Subj : To the 250th anniversary of the USA: Democracy under threat To : All From : roman Date : Tue Jun 30 2026 19:20:11 One only has to look back just 250 years and recall the moment when the Founding Fathers of the USA, risking their lives, affixed their signatures to words about freedom, faith, and resistance to tyranny. To understand now how prophetic and great their idea was. Today, however, in 2026, that same freedom, won by the blood and sweat of many generations, hangs by the thinnest thread of history. And the most terrible danger is not lurking abroad. It does not come from tanks or machine guns. It hides in the shadows, comfortably settled in universities, courts, corporate media, schools, and even within the walls of the White House. This is not just ideological disputes, not just "leftist views," but a systematic subversive effort that masquerades under the slogans of social justice, but in reality prepares the ground for mass terror, no less bloody than the tragedies that shook the world in the middle of the last century. Hungary in 1956, Berlin in 1961, South Africa and Italy in the 70s - these dates are not just a memory of the past. They are a warning. Today's Marcusean adherents do not storm with weapons in hand, but their methods are no less destructive: laws, propaganda, undermining the foundations of civil society. Their "humanism" is a knife in the back, and "equality" is a deception hiding a conspiracy against the American soul itself. The recent case of the arrest of one such person speaks for itself. A young man with an open smile and "clear eyes," confidently telling students about the need to destroy the "yoke of the white man," quoting Gramsci and hiding behind slogans about green energy. Behind his polite facade - a smartphone with contacts of coordinators of unregistered organizations accused of sabotaging infrastructure. He is not a terrorist in the classical sense, but his convictions are an integral part of the same machine that prepares the ground for a new "red terror." And how to explain the fact that so-called "humanitarian" programs, funded by international bankers, end up in the hands of those very forces that are later accused of horrific crimes against humanity? Why are billions of dollars allocated for "refugee aid," falling into the hands of structures where UN employees work, becoming a source of sabotage, murder, and the undermining of statehood? This is not an accident. This is part of a targeted plan that has been nurtured by communists for decades and which today is reaching its critical point. Western Europe in the 1950s knew the truth about communist parties masquerading as caring for the workers. Today the same methods are used in the USA, but under different slogans. No more machine guns - instead, laws, manipulation of court cases, manipulation of public opinion, environmental terrorism, sabotage, and most importantly - lies disguised as a struggle for justice. And when "progressive" media scream about "fascism," they pretend not to notice the real terror - the one they themselves cause. Nightly FTN forums, hidden networks, joyful discussions of infrastructure failures - all this is not the words of madmen. It is a plan. And it is already in motion. Someone sitting in glass offices is not just discussing the "democratization of resources" but is calculating how many days a "white" city can survive without water. Someone is counting how much time it will take to destabilize the economy, and then declare it "justice." Someone in schools is compiling dossiers on parents with "dangerous" conservative beliefs, and in universities, they are preparing a new army of ideological saboteurs. This is not just "leftist views" - it is a religion with rituals, sacrifices, and fanatics who believe that the destruction of America is a necessary act on the path to something "better." Their liberalism is not the protection of individual rights and freedoms, but a renunciation of them in the name of a certain "collective good," which is actually controlled by a narrow layer of ultra-rich corporate fanatics. Their "equality" is not harmony, but the incitement of hatred, because it is the main tool of Marxism: divide and conquer. With each year their influence grows across the planet. In the USA, mayors of key cities declare moratoriums on rent and loan payments, universities become headquarters of underground cells, and the media become an instrument of propaganda against democracy. They incite violence, undermine trust in institutions, interfere in court cases and elections, to blow up society from within. And this is not just views - it is a rehearsal for a color revolution. It is a plan. You ask, what will happen next? Let's try to imagine. If today's trends continue, America faces controlled chaos. By the end of 2026, the country could split into two warring camps, where paramilitary leftist groups disguised as fighters for justice will launch attacks on conservative media, police, private companies, and populated areas. Social networks will block Republican politicians, declaring them fascists for supporting "unacceptable self-defense," and traditional media will replace the truth with false narratives about a "heroic struggle against them." The police will refuse to pursue activists, fearing accusations of racism and personal stalking, while the FBI and National Guard will disintegrate due to internal political differences. The first blow may be struck against red states - where islands of resistance to leftism still remain. Then an avalanche of asymmetric internal war will begin: power outages, infrastructure sabotage, mass arrests of oppositionists. When chaos reaches its peak, someone from the deep state will accuse the president of collusion with "fascists" and declare a temporary administration "in the interests of the common good." The Pentagon will bring in troops under the pretext of fighting terrorism, the Constitution will be repealed through emergency powers, and Congress will lose its power. By the summer of 2027, progressive reformers will take control of the media, courts, police, and economy. The opposition will be fragmented, persecuted, and isolated. The president will either step down under pressure or be removed by impeachment. America will enter an era of one-party autocracy, where the Constitution will remain mere decoration, and real power will pass to the Marcusean elite and corporate oligarchs. But the most terrifying thing is that all this is possible not with the roar of cannons, but with cries about "saving democracy and the climate." And when the last spark of freedom goes out, no one will be able to say they were not warned. History does not repeat itself, but it rhymes. And today's America stands at the same threshold where Europe once stood. Only the question is not when this will happen, but who will be able to prevent it. --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A48 (Linux/64) * Origin: Shipwrecks & Shibboleths [San Francisco, CA - USA] (700:100/72) .
