The Moderate Majority...
Have Become the Middle Child In America. Over 70% of the people have no voice at all.
Somehow the moderate majority have become America's middle child. Those without extremely conservative, or liberal views on abortion, law and order, identity politics, or a looming world war, are just cast aside, and ignored. If they remain quite and docile the fringe 5% from either side, and the government will leave them alone. If not it's an all out attack by the mobs and a starring role in their own personal Truman Show produced by America's own big Brother, Uncle Joe. *1 Link below. What rights do you have to speak up anymore, they have all been signed away to the local, state, and federal agencies.
What is a moderate voter ?
Now being a moderate means a great many things, and nothing all at once. If you don't think abortions should be preformed at 8-9 months, but also don't think the Government should stop anyone from getting one, especially between 1-3 months (safe, legal, rare) then your opinion matches almost 70% of other Americans according to several polls. The problem with that is, the majority opinion doesn't matter anymore, not in the eyes of the government. Just look at the public polls, and actual statistics on crime in any metropolitan area. The people in the cities vote against crime, and get more of it. The candidates, and reps that promised to make it better in all of their election speeches, get in the house and vote for their Instagram followers and not their constituents.
The majority actually want Law and Order, to simply be able to take their walk to work, or to the park without fear of being mugged, or randomly stabbed. But local Government in these areas allow criminals to run rampant without fear of arrest, or incarceration. A Perfect recent example of this is Bob Lee, aka “Crazy Bob” the founder of Cash App, and CTO of Square. Link *2. He was afraid that San Francisco was getting far to dangerous to live in. Bob moved to Miami, to avoid the skyrocketing amounts of random violence, and cultural decay. He returned to San Francisco briefly on business, and was stabbed to death seemingly randomly. This occured in a wealthy section of the city, not normally prone to see those types of random stabbings, like “Skid Row” or “The Strip”. It's spreading like a plague across the already nearly lawless, and selectively policed areas. This is not wanted by the citizens, they did not Vote for most of the issues that led to these conditions, but it's happening anyways. The majority are becoming unhappy.
The way to normally handle issues by voting, attending Town Hall meetings, and School board meetings, has been fully weaponized against the majority. Should a parent go to a Town Hall and speak up about prosecuting a criminal, or to a school board meeting and take part in their child's education, they get put on Domestic Terrorist watch lists. The same goes for everyday average people who are generally speaking out about any constitutional rights being violated, either publicly, or on social media. There are FBI watchlists full of peaceful religious groups now, with agents just for them. They are now watching Catholics, Wiccans, Christians and Pagan folks alike, acting as if they are actually dangerous. Link *3
Then to top it off, we have other growing issues along with this. The basic rights that have been surrendered to Local, State, and Federal agencies is growing daily, and most of it happening without a single citizen voting. Instead appointed officials are signing them away, or they are being written away in huge packages crossing the house and Senate floor. From H.O.A.’s rules on owning chickens, or the height and type of fence you can install in a yard that you paid for, to the regulation, and repair of roads that you paid for but can't use without proper licensing, and insurance. It goes for the way land is zoned, and used federally also, and the mandatory healthcare plans that you pay for out of your income taxes as a fine, if you do not enroll. How can you justify speaking out against it if you will be targeted by media, and government weaponized mobs, plus even by the local, state, and federal Law enforcement. Making the moderate middle the voiceless, and neglected middle children of America.
The climb back out of this one sided law, rampant chaos, and moral decay will not happen over night. It starts with Local Voting, and State elections. If these representatives are elected based on their actual ideas and policies then they pass those ideas up the line, or they begin to hold the State, and Federal reps accountable for not following the needs or wants of their constituents. Start following local candidates, and their ideas.
The next option is get out of the cities, and densely populated urban centers, find an area with people that have similar community values then buy nearby land, and form new farming communities, and towns. You can even trade and barter, or choose to create a new currency to use amongst the town. That is still legal. Although moving is never easy, and may be the hardest thing you ever do, I do promise you moving across the state or country is far easier than burying a loved one or a child due to climbing tension and violence.
