Can we flood the zone with a narrative before the facts catch up to us?

This is what laboratory means.

Not that everybody is guilty, but that the environment is ideal for testing the boundaries of the state.

And the state has no choice.

It can respond a couple of ways.

Overreach, which manufactures recruits for the other side, or paralysis, which manufactures militias.

Then you have a recipe for replication.

You're watching a legitimacy war.

This is not a street conflict.

This is a legitimacy war.

Most people misread this as left and right.

The deeper problem is this.

When a large number of Americans across different tribes believe enforcement is political, courts are selective, bureaucratic power is unaccountable, rules change depending on who you are,

then extremists don't have to convert the nation.

They only need to convince a small percentage that the system doesn't deserve obedience.

All those things I just said, I know people in many of them, I believe.

Once this idea spreads, violence starts to sound like a tool and not a taboo.

Now here's where we cross the Rubicon.

If any of this becomes normalized...

Let me ask you this.
