I have chosen to copy over Robby’s post from X in its entirety, since I believe that everyone with a working brain and a love for America should receive the benefit of his thinking. Starbuck has been singularly successful in his almost single-handed crusade against DEI in Corporate America. All he needs to change corporate policy is to send a letter threatening to take a company’s policies and procedures to the Court of Public Opinion, and companies fall right in line.
Court of Public Opinion, read on.
The far left doesn’t realize yet how lucky they’ve been that Trump is as merciful as he is to them. One day they will beg for the time where he was President. My theory is that he pities them, so he extends some small level of mercy to them. What comes next if the far left doesn’t stop their attempts to destroy America will have no such mercy. And no in advance I will not apologize for this post but yes I will further explain. How many Antifa are serving life sentences? How many left wing domestic terrorists have been tried for treason? How many funders behind the left’s criminal antics have been jailed? How many illegal immigrant child rapists have been quickly executed in a public way after receiving the death penalty? I could go on and on. He’s extended them a mercy in hopes of social correction via popular culture change but voters will not accept this mercy 4-8 years from now. To be fair he had his hands tied during his first Administration but he’s always been merciful to some degree while showing strength in important ways to slow the radicals down but a time is coming where there will be no such mercy. That time will likely come after Trump leaves office if I’ve predicted the timeline correctly. It could come sooner but I don’t think it will.
Call me whatever name you want but I don’t think the militant left will change and the only thing they understand is force. You either dominate and put down their criminal elements for good or they will become the future leaders on the left, and they could one day rise to power. Then you can kiss your country goodbye…
This isn’t even a knock on Trump, I understand his more merciful approach to change society by changing culture, and to a degree I agree with it but at some point brute force using every legal avenue is necessary and we’re quickly coming to that day. Years from now when that day comes, the far left will miss Trump and wish they had course corrected to sanity then. Those who show the least mercy for the far left will begin to be rewarded for it electorally in the coming years. The American Bukele’s will rise, but maybe even stronger.
Again call me whatever you want but I have a very good track record of social predictions. Don’t get me wrong, President Trump is a very important, world altering figure but even he can’t save these radicals from themselves. It’s not his failure that will lead to what comes next, it’s simply the natural reaction to total insanity. They refuse to course correct. They will get crazier from here on out. Then people will have had enough. That’s when the clock strikes midnight for them. What do you think?
Here’s the link to the X post.

There are too many people who do not understand the totalitarian insanity on the left. They are apolitical or too easy going. Those people, despite all plain evidence, will put the left back into power eventually.
And when the left regains power, they will destroy the remaining faithful Americans with a brutality unheard of in modern memory. I’m talking mass murder.
I wish President Trump would realize that the merciful thing to do is to make a few very public examples in order to correct leftist tendencies. As long as the Left thinks they are untouchable it will only encourage more insanity.
All or none.
buy lots of powder and bulletmaking machines
Seeking the death penalty for Luigi Mangione is a start.
Still, Bukele-style criminal crackdowns are not the answer. You have to think about incentive structures, especially among ambitious high-IQ people: what career behaviors are rewarded with money, fame, or advancement? How could ambitious high-IQ people be steered toward more socially productive goals?
Specifics: The risk-reward ratio is off for academic plagiarism and data falsification. The risk of punishment is low, the benefit is high. The same is true for insider trading, bribery and money laundering through NGOs for elected and non-elected officials of both parties. Loser pays (if the loser started the lawsuit) would end the incentive to bring pointless or vindictive lawsuits. And so on.
Next, improve hiring standards. Why does the military recruit or retain people who are physically unfit for combat zones? Why does the govt hire lawyers who graduated at the bottom of their class and couldn’t pass the bar exam for the first 3 tries? Etc. A lot of govt employess (including decision makers) are simply unqualified by any objective standard.
In short, you need basic management, not a dictatorship.
