A fantasy is something someone desires, no sane person desires war. However, realistic people accept the possiblity of warfare and that it is sometimes necessary. In the realm of politics, everything has a relationship to conflict and either will move us away from it or move us towards it. Many times throughout history, political differences have led to warfare. For decades now, the US has seen greater and greater polarization between the two sides. For the left to believe that it can eventually win a total victory for it's side without the potential for warfare and outright warfare is an unrealistic fantasy.
I do not desire warfare, but I do recognise that there is an increasing pontential and possiblity of it. Peace is my fantasy, the increasing potential for conflict is reality. I do believe very much in the old saying "better dead than red", so yes, I will accept participation in active warfare before I allow leftist free reign here. I am more than willing to die and kill to prevent it. The purpose for even presenting it is that we must all recognise the increasing potential, without that recognition, we can not move away from it. Without the left recognising that there are indeed people in this country that will take up arms against them, then their policies can only lead to an increased potential for armed conflict.
If you your ideology can't win over enough people to vote for it, how the hell do you think you will win over enough people to fight for your ideology???
