We are now all realizing that it’s time to circle the wagons and load the muskets. In the fights that lay ahead, these ideas are an essential weapon

So, political violence?

For folks who don't get to the page until it is scrubbed (which might not happen, but I expect it will), you are quoting from the "Editorial Reviews" section a quote by "Senator JD Vance"! 🫢

You mean Donald Trump’s running mate? That JD Vance who promoted political violence? Seems like that would be a bad thing considering somebody tried to assassinate his running mate.

somebody tried to assassinate his running mate.

It was one of their own too.

The cover of the book also says that Vance wrote the forward in the book. I hope it's too late for the publisher to change it. I'd love to read what Trump's VP choice has to say about the Christian Nationalist overthrow of out nation. Not that I'd ever pay money for a copy of the book, to be clear.

"we are in the process of the second American Revolution"

Says the so-called patriot... The American Revolution was revolting from another government to make a new one. So.... They hate America so much they want to make a new one. Some real patriots there...

That's a nothing burger, really. Everyday political talk to my mind.

The changes here, along with your quote, are more damning:

"A sentence on the archived page that says the book “blazes a warpath for the American people to take back their country” now says it “blazes a promising path.” Another fiery sentence on the archived page read, “Just as a controlled burn preserves the longevity of a forest, conservatives need to burn down these institutions [the FBI, The New York Times, the Department of Education, etc.] if we’re to preserve the American Way of life.” It now says that those institutions “need to be dissolved if the American way of life is to be passed down to future generations.”

Also notice the Trump language: "take back their country", "preserve the American Way of life". Straight from the fascist playbook.

If Trump wins, I honestly hope at least some of you libs have armed yourselves and trained. I am a peaceful man, but I am not harmless.

Far more “libs” are armed than you would know. It’s just not part of their identity.
