In March of 2020, America began to experience its worst instances of democide and betrayal since the Civil War. Under the guise of maintaining health and safety, local and state governments rushed to adopt the federal government\u2019s recommendations by implementing nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) that ultimately killed<\/a> 200,000 Americans through 2021. And after adding the most conservative estimate<\/a> of Americans killed by the Covid vaccine, deaths in 2021 from NPIs and the vaccine exceeded the Civil War\u2019s annualized deaths<\/a> by 75,000<\/em>. But instead of outrage over the outcome<\/em> of governments\u2019 warfare waged on their own people, the only outrage still burning today is over how<\/em> that warfare was waged. Some say that the government didn\u2019t do enough, and others say that the government did too much. But in direct conflict with the Constitution, most Americans wanted the government to \u201cdo something,\u201d so politicians were happy to abide.<\/p>\n

Why were politicians pleased to provide what their most vocal constituents demanded, despite the Constitution prohibiting politicians from meeting those shrill demands? Because politicians exist to perpetuate their existence, and if their chances of reelection hinge on disregarding their oath to the Constitution, they\u2019ll happily betray their oath. This is no theory. On November 3, 2020, 11 states held a gubernatorial race. Nine of those states<\/a> were locked down, and eight of those states—comprising a combined population of 36 million—reelected the governor who locked down the state. This proves that the ability of the Constitution to restrict governments pales in comparison to the power of the popular sentiment that yearns, as Thomas Jefferson bemoaned<\/a>, \u201cfor liberty to yield, and government to gain ground.\u201d The politicians and voters who supported them, however, weren\u2019t the only Americans who betrayed the Constitution.<\/p>\n

Every member of the U.S. military stationed in America in 2020 failed to do what they swore<\/a> to do, what Americans are forced to pay them to do. \u201cI ___, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic…\u201d Notice that the oath doesn\u2019t require of those who swear it to \u201csupport and defend\u201d the Commander in Chief or any other politician, and by tolerating the actions of state and local politicians, every member of the military stationed stateside in 2020 ended up supporting and defending politicians—domestic enemies—against the Constitution<\/em>. There\u2019s no pandemic paragraph or cowardice clause in the Constitution that renders the Bill of Rights null and void, but those in the military—and most cops—gave in to popular sentiment; they acquiesced to fear. But servicemen are supposed to be immune to popular sentiment, as they swore an oath to the law of the land, not to the court of public opinion; therefore, the U.S. military should be thrown atop the rotting heap of once-cherished institutions. It failed, and it will continue to fail<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s even more troubling, however, is the precedent that\u2019s been set. The military sat idly by while domestic enemies trampled over the Constitution, so who\u2019s to say that the military won\u2019t take an active role in supporting the domestic enemies during the next constitutional crisis? Rather than allowing states to secede<\/a> from the Union, Abraham Lincoln used the military against his own people, so what\u2019s stopping a modern-day president from doing the same when it\u2019s once again popular to be afraid<\/a>? Governments worldwide excel at ginning up fear, and by no means was 2020 the first year in which the servile media assisted the government in terrorizing their fellow Americans. And when the next constitutional crisis hits, bet on the media once again applauding the government, not defending the people or the Constitution. What happened to America? Born out of revolution and later witnessing more presidents assassinated<\/a> since Lincoln than any other country, not a single governor was killed in 2020. You might have thought that H. L. Mencken was exaggerating<\/a> a century ago, but it\u2019s been clear since 2020 he wasn\u2019t: \u201cThe average man doesn\u2019t want to be free. He simply wants to be safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

There\u2019s been much talk of the United States descending into civil war, but war needn\u2019t be inevitable. Civil war can be averted, but the crux of America\u2019s quandary must first be acknowledged: the more that the federal government controls, the greater the chances of civil war. Governments rule by coercion—not cooperation—which, naturally, breeds conflict. It\u2019s hard enough for 33 people to agree, which is why it\u2019s impossible for more than a third of a billion Americans to compromise. For every American who is aghast at the latest controversy, there\u2019s an American who believes it\u2019s glorious. There\u2019s no compromise to be had here; therefore, instead of forcing each state to conform, as Lincoln did, why not do the opposite? Whether the issue is pathogens or protests, waste or war, a financier\u2019s files or flagrant fraud, the federal government is either the cause of it or can only exacerbate it.<\/p>\n

And what does the District of Columbia do besides tell the country that it\u2019s doing something grand while hiding the fact that it\u2019s inflicting great harm and parasitizing the very same people it purports to serve? If you\u2019re still unconvinced about why this issue is of utmost importance, just read the Constitution—tyranny\u2019s crutch—and consider the following clause from Article I, Section 8: \u201cThe Congress shall have Power… To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions.\u201d Regarding the precedent set in 2020, do you see why the vast majority of \u201cthe Laws of the Union\u201d must be repealed? Do you see that with \u201cInsurrections\u201d undefined, the military will readily hunt down whomever the federal government deems an insurrectionist? Some would say that this already happened—in 2021—and that (and much worse) will happen again if the federal government doesn\u2019t make itself far less relevant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
