Why the republican party must be destroyed (First in a series)

[BanTheGOP]

Many people in this forum react fearfully, disgustingly, or pitifully to my ongoing theme: The republican party must be eliminated from the fabric of American political, societal, and economic involvement with the progressive and increasingly global nature of our citizens. This is almost as distressing, to me, as the actual presence of the most despotic, destructive entity ever to be unleashed against humanity, and in extension, the entire planet.



Simply put, many people here equate my “motives” as being just as Draconian and repressive as the republicanist agenda itself. Fair enough…to a POINT.

I am, overall, a very simple-minded human. But such simple-mindedness must NOT be confused with ignorance, lack of culture, lack of education, or lack of benevolence. Indeed, the quest to simplify life and diversity is the desire to eliminate the drama, the hatred, and the disparaging remarks and acts that republicanists execute as part of their own mantra.

The bottom line: I look at EVERYTHING in this world that is bad, evil, or destructive, and can instantly associate that particular item with the existence of the American republican party, and the authorization of such evil with either the overt or negligent command of an official affiliated with said republican party. While the path of accountability may seemingly be convoluted, I’ve honed my own thinking processes to instantly assess the nexus and establish the existence of the republican party as the ultimate malefactor of the evil event.

This process, by the way, is difficult to explain, but easy to illustrate. For example, here is a passage from “A Study in Scarlet” in which Arthur Conan Doyle, through his character Sherlock Holmes, explains the process:

(HOLMES) “I have a kind of intuition that way. Now and again a case turns up which is a little more complex. Then I have to bustle about and see things with my own eyes. You see I have a lot of special knowledge which I apply to the problem, and which facilitates matters wonderfully. Those rules of deduction laid down in that article which aroused your scorn, are invaluable to me in practical work. Observation with me is second nature. You appeared to be surprised when I told you, on our first meeting, that you had come from Afghanistan."

(WATSON) "You were told, no doubt."

(HOLMES) "Nothing of the sort. I knew you came from Afghanistan. From long habit the train of thoughts ran so swiftly through my mind, that I arrived at the conclusion without being conscious of intermediate steps. There were such steps, however. The train of reasoning ran, `Here is a gentleman of a medical type, but with the air of a military man. Clearly an army doctor, then. He has just come from the tropics, for his face is dark, and that is not the natural tint of his skin, for his wrists are fair. He has undergone hardship and sickness, as his haggard face says clearly. His left arm has been injured. He holds it in a stiff and unnatural manner. Where in the tropics could an English army doctor have seen much hardship and got his arm wounded? Clearly in Afghanistan.' The whole train of thought did not occupy a second. I then remarked that you came from Afghanistan, and you were astonished."

Now, this is what goes through MY mind when I read about a disaster of virtually any stripe. It can directly be traced to the republican apparatus itself, and I connect the dots, probably better than most.

The minute I saw the oil-soaked, doomed species on the Louisiana bayou, I instantly associated the cause, and assigned 100% of it, to the republican party. Using the same synopsis as Sherlock Holmes, it should be clear to EVERYONE that such destruction can easily be traced to the existence and execution of the republican party and its officials, and in most cases it is much SIMPLER than Holmes’ exhibition of deductive canny. I would also submit that most everyone on DU feels EXACTLY the same as I do; after all, the intuition is the same. It is simply the ability to piece together the facts, step by step, to create the necessary connection between malevolent events and the initiation of its happening via the republican party.

So, I can NOT patronize those “feel-gooders” who don’t understand that this is a freakin’ WAR, not a POLITICAL DEBATE. That is the MOST SIGNIFICANT MISUNDERSTANDING many of the feel-gooders do not understand.

Let me be quite succinct.

The republican party MUST BE DESTROYED. Pure and simple.

To repeat:

The republican party must be destroyed, bitch-slapped, mutilated, banned, eliminated, rendered absolutely impotent, and preferable erased from the human conscious of everyone on this planet.

End of statement. There, that is not so hard to understand, is it? No ambiguity, no reluctance at stating the hard, factual truth.

Many are fearful that I advocate a one party rule. That is SO NOT TRUE. I DO fear situations were a centralized, non-democratic elite such as a Bush, a Cheney, or a Reagan can obtain the ability to render their will on the vast majority of regional and global citizens.

I advocate a MULTIPLE-PARTY approach. But with the republican party, which is actually a CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION acting under the guise of a political party, COMPLETE with all the accouterments of said party, including a military, financial apparatus, etc, it made SENSE to focus on them as ONE PARTY.

NOW that they are floundering, we need to DESTROY its remnants. Remember, their positions are virtually against not just normal decent folks here in the US, but against the going trend around the world to become more progressive, economically and socially just in all venues.

In short, they are a ROGUE, CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION. They NEED to be DESTROYED. We can only do that if our party is NOT fractured, as it had been in previous elections by the Greens and other third party excursions.

ONCE we destroy the republican party; more specifically, we negate and make illegal many of its tenets that were not part of normal, political discourse, but actually had more in common with thuggery, thievery, murder, and despotic control, THEN we can open up the political conversation with MORE parties. Parties such as the Green Party, Peace and Freedom, various Socialist Parties, and other progressive parties. In other words TRUE politics of ideals, NOT of force, NOT of economic deprivation, NOT of environmental destruction, and certainly NOT of excluding the rest of the world.

THAT is why the republican party MUST be destroyed and rendered absolutely impotent. It's because I DESPISE ONE PARTY RULE just as much, if NOT MORE..than the NEXT GUY, including yourself.

You need to see the forest through the trees...but our job has ONLY JUST BEGUN.

SAVE democracy… SAVE the oppressed people… and SAVE the planet from republicanist destruction.

DESTROY the republican party ....ASAP!!

NEXT IN THE SERIES: I will exemplify this dissertation in describing how the Louisiana republican-caused oceanic destruction can be analyzed and easily understood based upon the tenets brought about in this post.

1. Agree for the most part

I think its a little more complicated than how you lay it out but I definitely agree with your premise. I'm also wondering if you are advocating the destruction of the republican party or the destruction of conservatism. They are different things although today they are pretty much intertwined.

The problem definitely lies with the republican party but the root cause of it is a certain type of worldview. The republican party is just a political conduit for the conservative minded citizen. As long as the conservative mindset exists the republican party will always be able to thrive in this country.

Your right in that it really is a war of ideology. But remember that we are fighting the ideology itself not just the fake political party which harnesses that ideology.

7. Republican party is to control what the Mafia is to crime

The republican party is the organization which promotes the despicable agenda of the republicanist bastards. Much like the Mafia creates the apparatus that allows for the systematization of crime, including the ability to control the members who purportedly is to prevent such crime, the republican party creates this aura of political legitimacy which carries forward its murderous agenda.

2. The Republican party is a tool. Take away the tool and the tool-users find another.

You're treating a symptom.

3. broke my hyperbole meter

"This is almost as distressing, to me, as the actual presence of the most despotic, destructive entity ever to be unleashed against humanity, and in extension, the entire planet."

Really? You don't want to maybe back off a little, indulge in a little perspective? "...the most despotic, destructive entity ever to be unleashed against humanity.." is quite an indictment. The RNC is worse than the Mongol Hordes? Worse than the Black Death(does a virus count as an entity?) Worse than the Crusades?

This is the kind of thing that makes it easy for people to write progressives off as a bunch of raving nutbags.

6. It may not be as bad as the bubonic plague,

but it differs only in degree from Germany's ******** ********* Party of the 30's and 40's headed by ______ ______.

Certainly you would have to substitute Hispanics and Blacks for Jews to make that analogy come out right but I'll bet there are a lot of Teabaggers and Fundies that'd have no problem with their own kind of Final Solution if it came to that.

Remember, when ______ came to power, no one in Germany envisaged death camps. It just happened as a natural development from where they started.

And after all, they were only following orders...

9. you are not fooling anyone

4. But you can't play "good cop, bad cop" then. Who would run interference for the fat cat Dems?

The war is the haves vs. the have-nots.

The rest is stage dressing.

5. I can see what you mean

...I have felt like banning the Republican party and even conservatism many times...I still sometimes get that feeling...So I sympathize with your position...But I think the mistake we are both making is we are projecting the authoritarian evolution of the Republican party from the future on to them now...I can see how their policies and behaviors are moving toward more and more intolerance, social darwinism, blatant political obstructionism, dog-eat-dog capitalism, the destruction of compassion, etc. but they are not at a point where we can legitimately ban them outright...We have to just let them state their positions and policies publicly and, like the BP oil disaster, let the light of reality rebuke them in the eyes of the world.

They are going to destroy themselves. The entire world, even their extreme right wing thug counterparts, the terrorists, are against them. That is the result of unconsciously advocating social darwinism: You can't get along with anybody or trust anybody.

That said, I do think that a democrat should never give a protest vote in favor of a republican.

I think the republican party wants to intentionally wreck this country, create a crisis, maybe even start a world war, if they could. Why? Because the more problems they create, the less progress democrats can make on their own real policies and goals because they will be busy fixing the mess the republicans have made. I don't think it was an accident that the economy started to break as Bush's second term was coming to an end. It was so, if the dems got into power, they would be kept busy fixing republican disasters rather than pushing our political agenda.

I think the republican party has one presidential election win left in them and then they are finished. There is no better resistance movement than Republicans getting what they want and reality stepping in to publicly rebuke them.

8. I agree, get rid of them!!!

They're responsible for the single biggest tragedy in American history. They're responsible for the worst economic fuck up since the Great Depression. They're responsible for the death of education and the biggest economic gap between the rich and the poor in THE FUCKING WORLD. They've given us Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and the tea party - the single biggest source of vile ignorance and hatred toward a leader ever.
