Reliable Conservatives

Guest Post by Eric Peters

Lenin had his Useful Idiots – and so do we.

They are called “conservatives.”

Almost in lockstep, they have lined up behind Biden – and everything behind him – now that those behind Biden have brought out Putin. The Russian Bogeyman is almost as effective as “the virus” at getting “conservatives” to lick the hand of people like Biden and those behind him.

Putin bad! Ukraine good! It’s as simple – and as simple-minded – as that.

These idiots – with no grasp of history and no understanding of the man’s legitimate grievances, provoked by the Left they claim to oppose – will become very useful to Biden and those behind him, who will use the Threat of Putin to Democracy and Little Children in just the same way that the threat to granny posed by “the virus” was used – only more effectively, because “the virus” lacked the element of patriotic dementia, the disease which addles so many usefully idiotic “conservatives.”

This malady will be used to get them back in line, where they belong – where they can always be counted on to be whenever the flag is humped, often to the accompaniment of that odious anthem “conservatives” love so much about how “free” they are.

How deep does the stupid go?

Let’s try to gauge the fathoms.

First, this business of Putin rearing his head – right on cue, just as the mania over “the virus” fades. Along with the mandates in even the bluest of blue states such as California and Oregon, which just this week dropped the mandatory Face Diapering of all kids in all schools, which had been in virulent force just a week prior.

They used to at least give us an intermission of a few years in between “emergencies.”

Now we don’t even get a week off.

Second, this business of Putin being the latest “threat” to  . . .  well, everything. Kind of like the way Americans would probably be threatened by Mexico joining the Warsaw Pact and Russia being able to station troops and missiles on the other side of San Diego, in Ciudad Juarez.

Yeah. We’d abide that.

Just as we did the Russians sidling up to the coast of America, via Cuba, back in 1962.

But Putin – Russia, actually – is supposed to abide NATO sidling right up to her equivalent of Ciudad Juarez, via the Ukraine – which the Western powers assured Russia would never become part of NATO.

This is insane – or something much worse.

Anyone not entirely an idiot understands that the prospect of Ukraine joining NATO  is an even more obnoxious and even more alarming prospect for the Russians than the hypothetical prospect of Mexico joining the Warsaw Pact would be for Americans – especially American “conservatives.” While Mexico has never been part of the modern United States, Ukraine has been part of Russia for most of both their histories.

America braying at the Russians over the Ukraine is surely beyond galling to the Russians given how America dealt with states that tried to leave America.

Not to mention what America did recently in Iraq – which was Blitzkrieged in a manner that was remarkably like Operation Barbarossa – an event still sour in the mouths of most Russians and about which most Americans are idiotically ignorant of or soporifically indifferent toward.

What’s  30 million (give or take) dead Russians?

It’s a lot, to them – and those who remember them. The Russians have damned good reason to be paranoid about a threat snuggled up right next to their borders and it is beyond exasperating that so many “conservatives” denounce not only Putin but those who point out that Putin has a point. And that he is being goaded – with what seems almost to be a deliberate intent to provoke him (and thus, war).

Which, should it widen, will then be used to characterize anyone who points out who provoked it as being Putin’s poodle and an “enemy of freedom” (here we go, again). It could transform the Biden Thing from America’s version of Leonid Brezhnev into a “war president” – like The Chimp – and anyone who questions him (and those behind him) on any point of doctrine as not only dangerous but possibly even treasonous.

Canada just showed where this can lead.

And we’re being led down the same road, by some of the same people – who are too  idiotic to realize how extremely useful they are.

I’m reminded of the G. K. Chesterton quote about Progressives work at going around making mistakes, while Conservatives work at keeping the mistakes from being corrected.
That said, the conservatives I hang out with don’t want anything to do with military involvement in this mess.
Perhaps it would be better to refer to them as classic liberals, but the word ‘liberal’ suffered a serious highjack.

If you want to hear from actual conservatives, meaning those who wish to conserve western culture and civilization, you won’t find them anywhere easily. The “conservative” media has sent them to gulag for wrongthink.
Here are some essential ones:
Fred Reed
John Derbyshire
Steve Sailer
Jim Goad
Mark Steyn
Nigel Farage
Taki Theodoracopulos
Jared Taylor
Alexandr Sholzhenitsyn

Then there are more. Start here.

Farage is all in on war. War, like Covid, is very useful to separate the principled from the dupes.

Uniparty with a sprinkling of each kind mixed among them.

All beholden to the same master.

Politics and reality have parted company. This happens when the elected work against the electors.

Down with the corporate front men.

Seriously agree, but I’m not sure I would call those snakes conservatives. They call themselves conservatives but that doesn’t make it true. Oligarchs one and all just in bed with different industries.

Fox News is supposedly conservative but is 90% controlled (visual) opposition. They don’t push forward or investigate Hillary’s corruption, the Hunter Biden Laptop, they pushed the covid narrative and were pro-vax, they denied the election steal/fraud, pushed the “Jan 6th insurrection” narrative and non-stop Russia boogeyman now.

How are Fox News, Graham, McShitStain, TurtleMan etc are not anything close to the people I know who consider themselves “Conservative.”

When they REALLY fight to close the border, make a no-foreign/military involvement policy, when they end the Fed, balance the budget no matter how tough the cuts are, de-regulate so that small businesses can compete, when they downsize the Fed Govt at least 40%, when they privatize education and end teacher’s unions— then this would be a great START to joining my side of the conservative aisle.

Fox is part of the corporate news I’m afraid.

What’s known as controlled opposition.

The best way to win any debate is to control both sides of the argument.

Fox News has ALWAYS been as far left as any of the other

I think we oughta suit up Sweet Lips Lindsey, Liz ‘bulldog’ Cheney and Meghan ‘motormouth’ McCain and send all 3 over to Ukraine to wag their fingers in the air and scare the Russians away. They sure talk tough 5,000 miles away from the front lines.

We are going to run all of these Luciferian sociopaths out of government and jail every living organism that coerced free people to become injured or killed with the phony vaccine. The useful idiots are about to meet the insanely pissed off.

Sad Act Khan in London was just saying he want jewels and clothes confiscated from Russian oligarchs.

This has turned into a game of one up manship . Each idiot trying to out do one other in the virtue signaling stakes.

Anyone who is a critical thinker would ask why a complete clown actor (spike heels and gay leather dancer) who worked/works for Klaus would even be leading a country. How would a buffoon even be in negotiation to have Ukraine join NATO?

This is pure theater, I can’t believe we are debating this. I gave this crowd more credit.

OK…Downer dudes and those who think Zelenskyy is a real head of state, I guess this video should qualify Madonna to run for president in 2024….right? She is dressed for the job if Zelenskyy the comic was acceptable in spike heels and leather.

I’ll see your Madonna and raise you a Nikki Minaj. Lol.

Anyone who is interested to see who and what mr zelensky is and who he is owned by should look up mr Kolomoisky .

I gave you a down vote but not because I don’t believe Zelensky is a puppet– it was the “why are we even debating this? I gave this crowd more credit” comment that got the down vote.

Who is debating? I don’t see anyone choosing sides on any issue about Ukraine and engaging in debate– the topic and article were faux conservatives and the phony outrage about Russia drawing a line against expanding NATO. Where did a debate about gay leathers, high heels and madonna even enter the room?

The republican party is deeply divided between the Jeffersonian libertarians, the religious zealots, and the Rhino’s who are just part of the swamp, and more liberal than conservative.
Let’s all remember what being a conservative really means. It means you believe in the Non Aggression Principal above all else. That every person is a sovereign, and has the natural right to own themselves, and that they are free to live their life any way they please so long as they do not infringe on the rights of any other sovereign person to do the same.
If you do not put that principal above all others, you are not a conservative.
