The\u200c United States is currently engaged \u200bin \u2062a \u200dfierce internal conflict, \u200bdescribed by presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy as a “cold civil war<\/a>.” In an\u2064 interview released today, Ramaswamy compares \u200cthe woke \u2064movement to a hostile occupying power, drawing parallels to Germany’s occupation of France during World War II. He\u200c warns that if\u200b this war is lost, tyranny will prevail, and the nation will be stripped of\u200d its \u2062freedoms.<\/p>\n

Ramaswamy argues\u200d that the pursuit of forced equality of outcomes, a key demand of cultural Marxists, inevitably leads to totalitarianism. He asserts that true freedom allows for group differences in preferences and talents, while forced equality can only \u2063be achieved through coercion.<\/p>\n

Ramaswamy goes on to \u200dhighlight the alarming parallels between the woke \u200bmovement and Stalinist \u200btactics. He points to the treatment \u200bof the January 6 “insurrectionists” by the Biden justice\u200b system as evidence of the potential for gulags in America. While physical gulags may not exist yet, Ramaswamy argues that \u2064the woke Left employs other totalitarian tactics\u200c such as censorship, shaming, spying, and employment termination to silence\u200c dissenters.<\/p>\n

Ramaswamy\u200d expresses concern \u2062that conservative Americans are hesitant to defend the nation’s \u2063founding principles due to fear of smears and attacks. He\u2062 highlights\u200d the Democrats’ efforts to deprive Republicans of due process and legal defense, emphasizing the \u2063weaponization of the financial system and the practice of law against\u200b those who oppose\u2062 the woke tyranny.<\/p>\n

In addition to discussing the broader cultural war, Ramaswamy \u2064shares his thoughts on fellow\u200d presidential candidate \u200bRon DeSantis and criticizes Nikki Haley. He accuses Haley of being a RINO (Republican In Name\u200b Only) and questions her consistency in \u200caddressing issues such\u200c as the Black Lives Matter movement. Ramaswamy aligns himself with DeSantis and promises \u2062to pardon former President Donald Trump on his first day in office, highlighting DeSantis’ failure to make a similar commitment.<\/p>\n

Ramaswamy \u2062acknowledges that many Republican politicians\u200b are \u200creluctant to acknowledge the ongoing war for fear of facing harsh truths.\u2062 However, he believes that failing to confront these truths will result in the loss of the country. \u200bHe emphasizes the need to dismantle the\u2062 administrative state and eliminate government agencies that promote anti-American ideologies, such as the Department of Education.\u2062 Ramaswamy pledges to release a list\u2063 of “woke generals” who will be fired if he is elected president.<\/p>\n

It is a battle for\u2062 the soul of the nation, with the \u200dwoke movement pushing for an oppressive ideology that seeks to dismantle the\u2064 values upon which \u2062the country \u200bwas founded.<\/p>\nHe criticizes the pursuit of forced\u2062 equality of outcomes, noting that true freedom allows\u2062 for individual differences and\u2064 preferences.
