Although I've posted these points previously, I think you'll find the logic and flow is tightened, the case refined and, I offer, irrefutable at this point. Please copy and post the image far and wide.
2) Followers here have no need to review the logic, we've worked it all out together in painstaking detail. If you're new to this case, you can follow the cycle of development at our website:
3) Master Sun Tzu gave us two critical principles.
First:
* Know not yourself nor your enemy, defeat in 100 battles.
* Know only yourself, defeat of half, victory in half.
* Know your enemy and yourself, victory in 100 battles.
4) Second:
* The losing general steps foot on the battlefield hoping to win.
* The victorious general only steps foot on the battlefield having won already.
5) But how? How is it possible to both know yourself and your enemy? How is it possible to never step foot on the battlefield without having won already? Master Sun gives these answers also. He calls it "time in the temple." Let's ponder that.
6) As far as we can tell, the ancient Chinese had a pantheon of gods as did most cultures. But, through a process not dissimilar to ancient Israel, their gods were subsumed into a single, cosmic force they simply called "Heaven."
7) For them, Heaven was the embodiment of a great, mysterious cosmic force called The Tao. Heaven showed itself in the Sky, Sun and Wind and Rain and the Cycle of Seasons. It also revealed its will in the outcome of men's battles, fought on the face of the Earth.
8) In Sun Tzu's time, Temples were the place where all War Planning took place. If you think of the Situation Room in the White House, you get the idea, but you'd have to relocate it to our National Cathedral. Once War Plans were completed they were given Invocation under Heaven.
9) It's almost impossible for us moderns to actually feel these factors fully. Our minds don't work the following way. We want to know God's will. We don't, so we decide to have a fight. The winner of the fight is the one God chose to win. In this manner, we realize God's will.
10) You might be surprised to realize how recently this mode of thinking was still 100% natural in all spheres of life. For instance, take the word "science." Up until the 19th century, what we call science was called "natural philosophy."
11) When Newton and his forebears were analyzing planetary orbits, their real question was how does God cause planets to orbit the sun? Adam Smith, a great student of Newton's did the same. His famous "invisible hand of the market" was God's hand.
12) In all these examples, you see the same thing. Be it war, science, or economics, it was always the discovery of God's will, his signature upon the universe as expressed in the Laws of Nature that was sought. And that's why the ancient Chinese planned wars in their Temples.
13) In modern English, Master Sun's advice to spend time in the Temple is often termed "calculations." This is a very fine translation, but most readers fail to understand its true meaning. Math arose as man's attempt to understand God's thoughts, His language.
14) In John 1, we're told that in the beginning was the word, and the word was with God and the word was God. We might easily retranslate that like so: In the beginning was number, and number was with God and number was God. The Greek term is Logos.
15) Logos is the basis of our term logic, and also of the suffix "ology," the study of, following any topic. Bi-ology = the study of life, etc. Logic is always the crossover point between words and numbers, and that is what Master Sun means by his term "calculations."
16) He teaches us that victory goes to the general who "wins" the most points in calculations during our planning in the Temple. On a scale of 1 - 10, which General is most in tune with The Tao? The one higher will win. So also with surrender to the Will of Heaven, etc.
17) I say unto you, Evil Terry McAuliffe has the will of the wind in his sails. The Republican Party of Virginia (RPV) is counting on a shift in the winds, this year, and they may be right. I fear they're not. I hope they are but fear they're not. And I think I know this enemy.
18) When I turn to my war planning Temple, I see very literally billions of dollars behind Terry McAuliffe. I see Soros and the Clinton Machine behind him. I see the entire apparatus of the Democrats behind him as the most important battle of 2021.
19) I see June 8 looming, and an easy victory for McAuliffe encourages our enemy, and greatly. They are in the ascendence. They believe that the will of their god is behind them, with them, in them, and to be seen in the wind in their sails. Easy victory.
20) In my recent time in the Temple I learned that 3 Delegates requested an audit of Virginia's Election 2020 vote. All three were censured. To my knowledge, the RPV not only did NOT stand behind them, they jettisoned them off the ship like 3 Jonahs.
21) To assume Heaven's will without spending the time in the Temple to win it is called hubris. I fear RPV hubris. And that brings us back to our June 8 Primary. We have the power to determine its outcome. But we have not spent the time in the Temple to hear the Will of Heaven.
22) Combat facing multiple opponents has a simple principle. You take out the biggest, baddest guy first. This strikes the rest with shock and awe. The second baddest guy will likely linger, but be struck with fear and loathing, and be weakened. You take him out next.
23) Decisions have consequences. When you choose to NOT use your power, you weaken that power, you weaken yourself. We don't just have a fight now, at the ready. We have a fight with an easy win. We take out the biggest, baddest guy now. It is easy for us. Just 12%.
24) A story is told of a man of faith, up on his roof in a flood. Patrols come by, offering to float the man to safety. He says no, God will save me. A helicopter comes offering to fly the man to safety. He says no, God will save me. Finally, the house sinks and the man perishes.
25) Facing God in the afterlife the man asks, Oh Lord, why didn't you save me? God answers, I did. I was there in the patrols and helicopter, you refused my salvation. We are told God helps those who help themselves. We may say, who accept His help, now, when it arrives.
26) Allow me to be merely practical, pragmatic. If you fail to grab hold of the easy wins, what possible reason do you have to believe you'll achieve the difficult ones? 12% is an easy number. Were we to organize and coalesce, the mission to #DefeatMcAuliffeNow would be easy.
27) I admit, 12 points is a lot. If it were just 4 points it would be vastly more likely. That's why our debit card PIN is only 4 numerals. Anyone can remember 4 things, easily. 12 is likely 3 times too many. Hey, I wonder. Can I reduce 12 to 4? Let me try...
28) Here we go:
1) As is, McAuliffe will win nomination. 2) Fairfax will be #2. 3) 300,000 VA R votes throws nomination to Fairfax. 4) If we #DefeatMcAuliffeNow by voting #FairfaxForVA, we CATAPULT Youngkin's chances in the General Election.
What do you think?
29) In the War Planning Temple, we always seek multiple perspectives. We want one plan to face another and defeat it. Strategic competition is the order of the day. So, I asking. How is this strategy wrong? I'll offer an answer myself, in a moment. But I'm honestly asking.
30) Master Sun's 4th & 5th measures, his calculations focus on Command & Discipline. We VA Rs have little of either, to my observation. If my strategy is wrong, it is for those two reasons. No Command. No Discipline.
Alas.
Yet...
Thread ends at #30.
We have a battle to win, friends. If just 12% of us show up to #DefeatMcAuliffeNow by voting #FairfaxForVA, we win. Come join us at Telegram and let us know who you'll be bringing with you to vote June 8.
We have homework to get done. First, we need to walk through Alinsky's 13 Rules. Second, we need to apply them to our current mission. Mastering Alinsky's Rules is a repetitive endeavor.
2) "1) Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have."
Alinsky skips a step here. Let's correct that...
Power begins by knowing that you have it.
3) It has been the mission of public education and the media to ensure we, We The People, forget our actual power. We cannot live up to Alinsky's 1st Rule if we fail to know our own power. If we ever learn our power, we can defeat the left with its Alinsky compliance.
25) In coming weeks and months we defeat Critical Race Theory as a basis of education. We ensure that our Constitution and it rights are taught to our children in school. America's history of freedom. Virginia's history of freedom. Our destiny as a free people is taught.
26) More important that WHAT is taught, itself, is THAT we, we Virginians, we take CHARGE over what our children are taught. The very same groups that #DefeatMcAuliffeNow are the very souls that win Virginia back for America.
27) You cannot FORM such groups without a vision of America won back, won again. You cannot survive the STORMING stage where many will oppose the true mission. You cannot NORM a group's endeavors unless built upon shared values of patriotism.
Form, Storm, Norm, Perform – Group Dynamics For Victory
In 1965, Bruce Tuckman offered the model here presented for our consideration. Ever since, it has proven irrefutable. It works.
2) The two key terms, as you see, the X & Y axis of the diagram, are Task & Relationship. As I've perused the literature, these two key terms are underrepresented. What is the task? What is OUR relationship? Who do WE accomplish our mission?
3) When, as a group, we FORM, we're so happy to do so. We have an idea of a positive task, and we're all, all in, or so we think. Alas, it is not so. We are NOT all in. Rather, we all have egos. And our egos are either subservient to the mission, or...they are not.
Trump’s From New York, I’m From Chicago, & We Read Alinsky
Virginia, you should read Alinsky, too. Of course you should read his books, but you don't need to. Just this set of 13 rules is all you require. They're easy to take in.
2) Let's look at the #DefeatMcAuliffeNow strategy through Alinsky's lens. Our major problem is that WE don't know we have this power. The enemy rightly does NOT think we have it, as we are unaware of our power, ourselves.
3) Culturally, Virginia is run by genteel people. Of course, we who support Trump are NOT genteel people. There's a basic, simple breakdown in our Commonwealth. View it is the Northeast vs the Southwest. The Northeast flows along with Washington D.C. The Southwest does not.
A high-ranking member of the Republican establishment in Richmond informed me recently that there are no serious people disputing Republican strategy. That is a dire omen.
2) I couldn't quite fathom how dire until now. We turn now to studying the Republican Party in Virginia, and the immediate results are virtually terrifying. Our party is in disarray. Failure mounting on failure, our Party has split from the soul of our people.
3) The laundry list of defeat following defeat is stunning. I'll give you the wiki link but you hardly need it. With 43% Republicans to 39% Democrats, we are now a deep blue state, with no sign in sight of ever regaining our hold on State Government.
We've discussed the 5 stages of grief before, and we'll review them again today. The first is Denial, and a point often missed is how GOOD Denial can be for us. It can be an act of will.
2) The order I teach the stages in is slightly different than the original. Here's my list:
We'll do a quick run through over the 2020 Election theft.
3) Republican Grief:
I deny that Biden is the lawful president. I shall not let him pass into my heart as such. He is a thief. I deal with this by bargaining my way to oppositional action, action in which my anger is powerfully channeled. My action may not succeed. No matter.
