The Exigent Duality
China in America - 08:22 CST, 11/12/20 (Sniper)
Creepy Joe, Cameltoe, and their motley crew of Democrats want to turn the United States into a China clone. Their first step towards this goal is to replace the current Representative Republic system with a uniparty concept, in which elections are purely symbolic. They will attempt to enact this idea via the following methods:

  1. Rig the current election system to get their people in power.
  2. Eliminate the filibuster and introduce new states, to neuter the Senate.
  3. Stack the Supreme Court, to neuter that institution.

The only remaining hurdle for them is what to do about the House: fickle citizens who have the expectation of these silly little notions called "freedom" or "democracy" are going to continually try to overturn the Democrat's advantage in that body. Probably, the solution will be to expand even further the existing Ilhan Omar-modeled ballot harvesting operations.

Once that is accomplished, they will whittle away at freedom of expression. This will be done using these measures:

  1. Convert the media into State-run television. This is complete.
  2. Censor the internet, ala China's "Great Firewall". This is almost complete.
  3. Intimidate, threaten, and commit violence against political opponents. This is well underway.
  4. Whittle away at private firearm ownership, starting with the fictitious "assault" weapons, in order to eventually ban all citizen-owned guns.

The idea is that this will consolidate their control. The next, medium-to-long term steps will be:

  1. Install a national social credit apparatus, ala China's "Sesame" system. This will control access to banking, employment, and travel.
  2. Force cowed, Face Diapered citizens to get microchipped with GPS monitoring devices, purportedly for "public health contact tracing".
  3. Eliminate private travel by making cars too expensive for the average person to own. For those who do own them, the cars will be non-autonomous: they won't turn on if social credit is too low, can be remotely taken control of, and so forth.

In general, the Democrats will erode each person's sense that humans are individuals, with inalienable rights, and replace that notion with the concept that the world functions like a giant corporation: there are bosses and employees. Chuckie, Occasional Cortex, Cameltoe, and others like them will be the bosses: the inner-most party members. The rest of us will be the constantly tracked-and-monitored employees. We will need to do as our bosses say, or get fired from society, perhaps even from life.

Interestingly, Chuckie and friends won't be much more safe than us plebes, as evidenced by the fact that Communist parties are constantly pruning. In China, powerful party dissidents routinely get jailed with no trial, while in North Korea Kim Jong Un had half of his family, including his uncle, executed by anti-aircraft fire. You can see this in America with the Left already, where zero deviation is allowed: just check out J.K. Rowling.

People may say that these measures will be impossible, because public support would not be wide enough. I say, go for a drive and look at the number of people strapping Michael Jackson-style Diapers to their faces while driving in their cars, by themselves, with the windows rolled up.

Even among mainstream, non-radical Democrats I've seen widespread lamentations that America isn't more like China. Twice, I've had Democrats tell me "what's holding back America is that it isn't more like China, who can 'just do stuff' without getting permission." Another time, a run-of-the-mill Democrat defended China's WuFlu measures, even after I'd pointed out that they were clubbing people in the streets and welding those people into apartment buildings, with or without food: "Well, it worked, didn't it?"

The reason Democrats like China is because they have been conditioned by America's State-run media and by the entertainment industry-- which routinely un-diversifies and censors rainbow people in their products, for the Chinese market, making billions of dollars in return-- to not see the downsides of Chinese Communism: rather, all they see is the illusion of Chinese efficiency, while being blind to the authoritarianistic downsides.

In other words, the American opinion popular makers are on the take: they will not bite the hand which feeds them. And they in turn influence the more gullible members of American society-- Democrats-- into believing that China is some kind of technocratic utopia.

In this discussion, it's also worth questioning the core tenet of whether China is actually efficient in the first place.

While it's true that China has experienced lots of GDP growth, there are two important things to note: first, GDP includes government expenditures-- every time corrupt Chinese officials hand out Solyndra-style money or build a concrete ghost city with no one living in it, that boosts GDP; second, China has 1.4 billion citizens: with that kind of brute-force productivity, it would be difficult to not have double digit growth as that work force inevitably becomes modernized, regardless of the economic system in place.

Juventus have replaced managers several times over the past decade, and have still won the Scudetto each year: you could make Mickey Mouse the coach, and they'd still win.

In fact, low double-digit growth seems rather tepid when one takes into account the amount of workers: much smaller countries like Singapore have achieved comparable-to-China GDP growth numbers in different quarters. Free market Singapore, by the way, has a population of 6 million.

Another interesting observation regarding China is how trusting Democrats are regarding the data which comes from the CCP. Communist parties do not tell the truth: rather, the "data" is about crafting a narrative. For example, North Korea claims that not one person has died from the WuFlu in their entire country. Not one Democrat believes that to be true-- yet Democrats do believe Chinese officials who make claims regarding the WuFlu there, even as those numbers are totally unverifiable, Chinese citizens who contradict the numbers are "disappeared", and out-bound internet communication from the country is heavily censored.

In conclusion them, Democrats want to institute a uniparty, totalitarian system in the United States, modeled after China-- and it's not difficult at all to see the precise steps they are pursuing to put those plans into motion.

What this means for the so-called "social contract" is unsure: the American government only has its purported "consent of the governed" regarding its current Representative Republic charter (its "constitution")-- if a new system is stealth-enacted via incremental steps, at what point will this consent no longer be established, because the underlying terms of the "contract" will have been altered?
