I don't think weak men create hard times. I think they allow hard times. I think that if people aren't willing to stand up to the evil that is always present and willing to force itself on the world, then those hard times come about. In this case, strong men are the ones willing to enforce standards and maintain peace. Weak men are the "nice" ones who try to make excuses for the evil that takes so much from them.
I think it boils down to intolerance. Strength comes from drawing lines you cannot cross without consequences and reprisal. I think we've reached this point in our history where the lines need to be pretty distinguishable and the consequences more so.
Looking at the current state of the Democrat Party has taught me that negotiations and reason are pretty much a non-starter at this point. They've made it very clear they have no interest in being nice themselves. They're willing to be strong for the sake of whatever radicalism they back, and they're willing to do evil to get it done.
On Monday, I wrote an article about an immigrant college student who belonged to a wealthy family that proceeded to read a hateful poem celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination before saying things to a TPUSA representative that sounded an awful lot like intimidation, if not flippancy about people like Kirk being killed themselves.
Like I said in the article, if this woman is not naturalized, then she should be deported, as should all immigrants who come here thinking they can use and abuse the rights of American citizens to help tear their country apart.
In another article, my colleague Teri Christoph reported on another college radical at UMich's Ann Arbor campus named Temulun Togochog, an Abdul El-Sayed supporter who attacked conservatives on campus, including a Jewish woman, and screamed about wishing she had killed that woman when she had the chance. As a tweet from Cam Higby included in the article indicates, Togochog apparently is a heavily medicated person, according to her own celebrated confession.
Apparently, some people did a bit more digging and found out she's also the child of a Chinese immigrant who escaped communism.
How does a human rights activist who once fought against Communism become a violent Red Guard? Her father came to America seeking freedom from the oppressive Chinese Communist regime. She joined him in raising awareness of the persecution of Mongolians in China. Then she went to college, where her professors convinced her that she, too, was a victim—alongside other minorities such as Al-Sayed—in a country that is supposedly systematically racist. For a young mind, the ideological transformation wasn’t difficult. Her story is not unique. It is a pattern repeated among Chinese American families, as children who grew up with the benefits of American freedom become foot soldiers of Marxist woke ideology. That is the power—and the magic—of victimology.

Leftist violence is, at this point, not a bug in the system; it's a feature.
What gets me is that they have so much confidence about the violence they commit. They don't think; they just do it and then feel no remorse for it. The hatred they feel is worn so openly on their sleeve because they don't want you to miss that fact. Even the girl in my VIP article eventually apologized — clearly forced by her family to do so because it practically destroyed their lives. Her apology would've failed even the lightest polygraph test. It appeared carefully constructed, possibly even written for her, while the confidence and smile she displayed while mocking Kirk's murder seemed effortless and genuine.
There is something in this new Democrat Party that cannot be lived alongside. There is no reason in them anymore. Arguments are met with violence or threats of violence. This isn't new, of course. It wasn't that long ago that Rep. Maxine Waters (CA-43) was telling people to confront Republicans no matter where they were, and Ayanna Pressley (MA-07) was saying there needed to be unrest in the streets as long as there's unrest in our lives.
We can't let this disease spread any more than it already has. That means we can't just vote straight-ticket Republican. We have to do more. We have to go on the offensive. We need to start defunding university campuses, refining the rules for immigrants, punishing public officials severely, investigating and punishing corruption from the top down, and more.
This nation needs an enema, but what it doesn't need is Democrats getting the chance to infect more of our country, more of our youth, more of our corporations, and more of our churches, homes, and schools with this divisive and clearly violent cancer.
If we fail, then Charlie was just the beginning.
