The recent string of vandalism of Tesla vehicles as well as swatting attacks on well known conservatives by leftist crazies might be scary, horrifying, and disgusting, but if you take a step back from these emotions for a second to look dispassionately at the situation, you will realize these attacks are only the dying screams of a bankrupt political movement that has no proposals, no ideas, and no goals except the obtaining of power — now through the use of violence because its political support has dropped to such record lows.

First, the attacks are beyond senseless. In the case of the vandalism of Teslas, the attacks are actually doing harm to those who in the past were most likely to have supported the Democratic Party’s leftist political agenda. Conservatives in general have not been buying electric vehicles, because they have no need to virtue signal leftist climate goals. So, by damaging Teslas owned by innocent bystanders, just because the car was built by a company founded by Elon Musk, the vandals are not only not winning converts to their cause, they are making enemies of people who were once on their side.

Second, these attacks are not going to go unpunished, as have past violent misbehaviors by the left. Rioters are difficult to track down, and even if the authorities can catch them it is difficult to prove guilt in a court of law. Furthermore, in the past the left controlled all levels of government, and the authorities were in favor of those riots, encouraged them, and thus would quickly dismiss most charges after the fact.

The situation now is very different. First, Teslas have more cameras than the biggest film studio. Any vandalism is captured on video in great detail. You key a Tesla and your face is going to be quickly plastered all across the web. You are going to identified quickly, arrested, and prosecuted. We have already seen several such examples, as illustrated by the picture above.

The same thing applies to swatting. Making a false report of violence to the police — so that they show up at someone’s home armed and fully expecting violence — not only puts the home-owner at great risk, but risks the lives of the law officers as well. Police departments do not look kindly on such swats, and work hard to arrest the perpetrators.

In the past local authorities were often stymied by Biden administration officials, who approved of the swatting of conservatives and wished to protect the wrong-doers. Under Trump the situation is entirely reversed. Now local and federal officials are eagerly teaming up to identify swatters. And since such calls can be traced with today’s technology, and since the recent wave of swats appear to be clearly part of an organized effort, it should not take long for the authorities to identify and arrest the culprits.

The left is now trapped in a circular firing squad

That leftists are doing these senseless acts of violence however illustrates the mindlessness and bankruptcy of their movement. It has nothing but violence and hate to drive it. In an authoritarian society this violence and hate might lead to power and rule, but not in America. We still remain a nation of laws and rule by election. Violence and hate only leads to arrests and prosecution, fully supported by the general public. And it only lowers the support for any movement that engages in such barbaric behavior.

Thus, this vandalism and swatting are merely the short term manifestations of a dying movement. As these thugs get prosecuted and sentenced to prison, the attacks will fade. And at that point, either the left will finally start to reassess its actions and policies, or it will die as a political movement.

Don’t expect any reassessment, however. That the left has now descended to this idiocy indicates its inability to self-assess. It is so certain it is right that it thinks shooting itself in the foot is a sure way to win new adherents.

Keep it up, Democrats! We on the right are thrilled you are proving yourselves to be this stupid.
