Which is always a good thing

Right like

The one criticism I have of Ben is he’s advocated for dying on principle

But even then it’s like... I agree with him to a rather great extent, I just don’t think it’s worth losing a lot of battles when we’re on the brink

He’s mentioned that he has supreme confidence that western civilisation will survive this and continue

As I’ve said many times to others in this server, I’m not so sure the normies will catch on in time to save the ship

If you aren't dying on principle then it isn't a principle in the first place.

Maybe I don't get where you are coming from but a principle is only that if it stays firm to whatever is thrown at it.

That’s what I’m saying by I agree with him on it

But my issue is how the left seems to be treating the culture war as an actual war, playing dirty and everything

Meanwhile we just sit here and let our freedoms get eroded bit by bit

I see what you mean.

The example I like to illustrate is something like this...

The majority vote to execute you, and of course you don’t want that to happen

Seems like a lot of people are waking up, but as you said the question is if it is enough of them.

But the principles of democracy dictate that it must

I think one thing Limbaugh should have talked about more is how we fight the culture war *as aggressively* with the left. Because he took a stand and suggested that we should match aggression but not their dirty tactics

Must happen*

Good thing the US isn't a Democracy then.

That normally gets contradicted with the principle of the right to life and self defense

@RoadtoDawn That's where Andrew Breitbart comes in.

But with the right to life constantly being called into question (abortion and euthanasia) and your right to self defense already heavily restricted at this current stage...

What a great loss he was

He got a snowball rolling though that is still growing in size!

Mmhmm

But yeah

Here’s to hoping the snowball reaches effective density on time

I wonder what Andrew would be doing today

We wouldn't have the same Ben, that's for sure

Breitbart.com would probably look a bit different too

Absolutely

Definitely

I reckon people such as Bill Whittle will be more in the spotlight

The sort of... more proper, I guess, kind of conservative

Whittle, D’Souza etc

I just want effective conservatives

And by proper I mean in the way they present themselves

Same

Unfortunately right now? I reckon we have a mix of provocateurs and philosophers, and both are needed

Hard to find someone who’s a good mix of both

I personally find philosophers to put people on certain tracks, so to speak. They go round and round on the track and are able to function better than those who live arbitrarily, but we also need people to look for substance and not just what is compelling like a good philosophy
