The hysterical response to Nickolas Decker has proven the power of liberal academics over conservatives.

When a black person says, "I'm going to kill white people," nobody bats an eye. This is because no one really takes black people seriously. They aren't organized; they aren't educated; they aren't disciplined; they aren't dedicated.

But if a white person says, "I'm going to kill black people," it's a 5 alarm fire. This is because we all know that white people are capable of extremely effective violence.

We can call this the "double standard test." If one group's threats of violence are treated as a non-event, but the other groups threats of violence are responded to with HYSTERIA, you know which group is more powerful.

Nicholas is not mentally unwell, if you watch his interview with Hanania. His post is isn't a schizophrenic rant -- it's a careful reprinting of passages from the declaration of independence and writings from the founding fathers.

Imagine if you, or any of your commenters wrote the following:

"If the left tries to destroy the constitution, 1776 will commence again. We have guns, and we know how to use them. It's just a matter of time." Same exact sentiment as Nicholas, which is that there will come a point when violence becomes necessary if the other side goes too far.

There's two responses we would collectively have:

1. "Hell yeah, yee haw brother! MAGA! American First!"

2. Roll our eyes and keep scrolling.

Ergo, no one would take it seriously.

Now consider the response to Nicholas:

1. "Hey, I'm a liberal too, but this is crazy! Be careful!"

2. "I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU TRY IT LIBTARD, WE WILL KILL YOU FIRST."

3. "OMG THIS GUY IS CRAZY THE LEFT IS INSANE"

Do you see the difference?

Everyone understands that liberals are more powerful than conservatives in the exact same way that whites are more powerful than blacks. They are more organized, educated, disciplined, and dedicated.

When conservatives wonder, "why do liberals always win?" it's because they are more powerful. Now maybe it's that liberalism makes people powerful, or maybe it's that liberalism attracts people who have inherently higher capacity for organization, education, discipline, and dedication. Either way, this hysterical response has shown just how unequal the power balance is between the two sides.

What rubbish are you writing? It wasn't an unpopular opinion It was a call to public homicidal violence. It's written by a PhD student at a respectable university who should by now have some measure of insight and self regulation. Are not recent events in the USA sufficient warning.

Getting kicked out by his landlady seems the least I would expect. Why do I even read you if this is your level of insight?

Perhaps you may want to reflect further
