For those who have no idea what I am speaking of, Time Magazine published an election fraud confession discussing how democracy was subverted that was quite staggering in it’s hubris and spin. I’m not going to link to it on account of the fact that life is too short to drink bad coffee and sensible people everywhere should just avoid such things. Naturally I did not avoid it, since I do not always follow my own great advice.
Basically it is a postmortem, or one of those, look, something is really wrong here, I feel vaguely unsettled about what happened, and we need to get our stories straight. If anyone asks here’s what we’re going to say….It’s kind of like one of those country songs, “that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.“
The word of the day is “fortify,” as in I didn’t steal anything, I made a midnight raid into your storehouse in order to fortify my own supplies. I wasn’t cattle rustling, I was simply “fortifying” my own herd. Being short on cash, we decided to walk into a bank with guns and fortify our cash flow. We didn’t subvert democracy and bypass the will of the people, we just fortified the election so as to force and mandate the only acceptable outcome, our desired result.
There is nothing new under the sun. I suppose this fortify rubbish has been going on since forever, so it’s not even an original deception, not even a creative lie, but it still took my breath away with it’s implied moral justification. It wasn’t just making excuses, it was calling good evil and evil good. Not only did we “fortify the election,” you should be happy we did and thank us, perhaps even give us a medal, or a Nobel Peace Prize.
Apparently the ends justify the means.
And who is this “We” who went about fortifying things? An elite cabal, across all parties, kind of like the illuminati. On my side of the tracks we would just call them “The Swamp.” The Swamp creatures who profit off of maintaining power and control over our government. Like rich and powerful people aren’t the proud owners of several US Congresscritters….
So here’s what I’d like to see people do, fortify themselves with the truth. Government does not exist as a benevolent force with a servant’s heart, that just wants to do what’s best for the little people. Believe it or not, just saying that today is somewhat controversial, and I am astounded, because back in the day, left, right, anarchist and rebel, everybody pretty much had that same baseline, that same understanding that the government is not necessarily your friend. In fact, the government often fortifies its own self off the fruit of your labors, and if you haven’t got any fruit, you’ll serve as a commodity of an even more tragic sort.
I can’t fix it, but my heart is breaking over just one word, that word “fortify” and how so much evil has often been packed into it, everything from handing out small pox blankets to “fortify” Native Americans, to “fortifying” evil dictators in the name of foreign policy. I could give thousands of other examples but then we’ll just argue over the details and start to justify the atrocities and miss the point entirely.
Some people are mad at me, some people think I am so politically incorrect, so uninformed, such an embarrassment to all decent government loving folks everywhere, but it is what it is, I am what I am, and my opinions are based on a heap of wisdom, experience, and observation, not cultism, not brainwashing, and not conspiracy theories.
You are very well-spoken and I can learn from you. There are a lot of blogs out there where writing is difficult and you have to weed through tons of words, when they could have said it in under 300. You have a gift. I’ll keep reading.

If you’re talking about the Time Magazine article about the secret shadow campaign to save America from Trump, that was a fine piece of leftist propaganda that Joseph Goebbels would be proud of!
The Epoch Times did a piece on this propaganda piece. Here’s a quote from the ET article:
“Time Magazine’s recent article,“The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election.” While their intent was to show the “heroic” effort of the left to save America from a Trump reelection, they admit there was “a loose coalition of Democratic operatives, grassroots activists, mainstream media, tech companies, and corporate CEOs” working together to sway the election in Biden’s favor. It also notes how Time admitted this well-funded cabal had control over every aspect of the election, including Antifa and BLM protests….”
Basically, Times Magazine admits that there was a coordinated effort in 2020 to spin the narrative to turn Trump into the one destroying democracy, while this elitist cabal was busy employing classic Marxist propaganda tactics to destroy any semblance of democracy! Can we say, gaslighting?
Here’s the Epoch Times article:

Good article, Mel, thanks for linking to it! I’m glad I’m not the only one a bit flabbergasted by the use of that word “fortify.” I mean, we were supposed to feel good about their noble efforts! Somebody made a really good point today about how if half the things they said in that article were true, that’s actually evidence of organized crime, and in any other context people could probably be charged under the RICO act.

The left is very good at deceptively changing the meaning of words to make the truth a lie and keep people confused. They accuse you of doing exactly what they’re doing and make you the bad guy. They’re all about “reimagining,” which simply means they’re going to put some form of socialism or neo-Marxist agenda over on us.
Clinton used to call raising our taxes an “investment.” Yeah, except we had no choice in that “investment!” The really sad thing is, most people seem to fall for it.

Well said, Mel. During the election I saw a commercial by Harris. She was clarifying the difference between equality and some other word I can’t remember. The point was she was manipulating the words to say what she wanted it to say about how Socialism ought to be the governing principle. Just another reimagining.

Exactly. When Harris says “equity” she means equal outcome, which is pure Marxist socialism. Just like when Biden says “unity” he means compliance to their one-party rule.

That’s it! Equity instead of equality. Good connection with Biden and “unity”

Why am I not shocked. Although I am a bit surprised at how brazen they are becoming about touting their “fortification.” At least in time past, they had the decency (maybe that’s not the right word) to remain covert. But now they don’t even care. And yet there are STILL people drinking the Koolaid and towing the line. Just unbelievable.

The double speak is just wild right now because the media *has* to make the back to business garbage smell sweet when Biden does it. Unjustified war? Spreading democracy. Cages on the border? New overflow facilities. Stealing an election? Fortifying the vote? Etc, etc.

Have you ever met one of these people?

I ask because I’m doing everything I can to join the elite, and I’m getting close in some respects. If the Illuminati was real, I’d be fascinated by it for the simple fact that holding together a vast conspiracy would require incredible skill and discipline, far above the abilities of anyone I’ve ever met.
The higher I get in the heirarchy, the more time I spend with people who can casually direct a million dollars at a project, the closer I feel like I should be getting to these supermen. But they aren’t supermen and I’ve been disappointed so far. Maybe I need to climb higher.

I read about half that Times article (from the link in the Epoch Times article), but I just couldn’t finish it. They kept on saying how this coalition saved the election. And it just made me sick. So I guess now the word saved means stole. Thanks for addressing this, IB.

One of my liberal Facebook friends posted a link to that Time article, having no clue that it was a veiled confession to election fraud but thinking that it defended and justified the liberal contention that Biden won, Trump lost, and the rest of us should just accept it as true because They say so. Fortify indeed! J.

I finally went and read the Time article that everyone is talking about. I must’ve missed the voter fraud bit. Organizing voters, forming organizations and working towards the outcome that you want isn’t voter fraud.
Trump claimed that there were fake ballots and people voting more than once. That would be voter fraud if it had actually happened. But his lawyers went to court and admitted that this was not the case. Trump and a lot of his supporters spent four years insulting people. The people that he insulted organized and voted.
Nothing was “stolen”. He lost. He barely won the first time and was no where near winning the popular vote in either election.
