Whatever happened to the concept of curiosity? I grew up curious. No, I wasn't preoccupied by "conspiracy theories" or just challenging authority. I was just naturally interested in things I didn't understand. As a young kid that was pretty much everything. In fact, since I didn't understand most complex systems, I ended up turning the other cheek. I found the sheer number of challenges overwhelming, so I gradually gave up inquiries all together. I turned my interests to simpler systems, like playing baseball. I began to love skiing, or body surfing. Learning how to have fun was much more rewarding and required little or no intellectual focus. I see a similar circumstance happening across our entire cultural horizon. The greater population seems to have given up on anything that requires intellectual engagement. Every social system, or generational challenge to the order of our cultural arrangements, our civilization, is getting lost in the stimulation we receive from entertainment, electronic devices or drugs. Let me give you some examples of what I am referring to: we have a serious problem with gender dysphoria. The incidence of gender confusion, rejection and self destruction is increasing at alarming rates. The result is disruption in schools, in the workplace and among families. The symptoms are increased sexual disease, self destructive behaviors, social anxiety, isolation and violence directed at children. Families are disintegrating. The idea of a traditional nuclear family is denigrated in academia, and increasingly across the medical profession. Our schools are handing out pamphlets that illustrate pornographic activities and what some would describe as deviant sexual practices. Men are being marginalized while society promotes feminist constructs of female empowerment. All of this promotes alternative family arrangements that mimic gang hierarchies. The incidence of warfare (which can take on unfamiliar forms) is increasing, not decreasing. In a modern, well educated, well fed civil culture, war should be occurring less frequently. But the opposite is true: we have wars on poverty, on racism, on genderism, on religion, on marriage, on wealth, on property rights, on civil rights, on parental rights, on immigration, and on abortion. On every continent, in every culture and across every age bracket, people are fighting with each other over anything and everything. Not every war produces death, but they all have consequences and victims. Violence has also taken on new dimensions. Some is traditional destruction of lives and property, but much of it now manifests itself in psychological damage, or cultural chaos. Children suffer in silence from sexual assaults or from abandonment. As they grow their damaged minds find it hard to assimilate and they act out with antisocial activities, sometimes warning us with written manifestos of violence and mayhem. The media inflicts enormous amounts of psychological damage through unrelenting streams of fear porn: constantly hammering us with visual displays of human misery. The "Climate Crisis" is the perfect platform for imposing fear across all demographic populations. It is the Malevolent God we all all fear the most because it reaches everyone no matter their social status. And it can strike in so many indefensible ways: violent natural storms, floods, earthquakes and fires. It becomes indistinguishable from manmade catastrophes, and politicians can blame all of their failures on natural disasters. In recent years we have experienced hundreds of abhorrent disasters; in 2001 we watched airliners filled with aviation fuel destroy enigmatic towers and thousands of lives. We witnessed survivors leap hundreds of stories to their deaths to avoid incineration. In Oklahoma innocents were blown to bits with homemade fertilizer bombs. Mad manTed Kaczynski used ingenious packaged bombs to terrorize the country for 17 years. We have seen thousands of children slaughtered with guns or torched in fires set by their own parents. Many of the worst public displays of terror were televised: Islamic radicals beheading kidnap victims (mostly Jewish). The 911 World Trade Center collapse. The kidnapping of the Israeli Olympic athletes and the murder of the French Charlie Hedbo magazine employees. The Branch Davidian Waco Texas disaster in 1993, and don't forget the Boston Marathon bombing and ensuing manhunt. These are just a few of the hundreds of violent mass murders in the past century we all shared on TV. Others occurred so fast that cameras weren't quick enough to record the carnage:, the University of Texas belltower massacre in 1966, the Beltway Sniper Attacks in 2002, the mass murder at McDonalds in San Diego, and others that were partially recorded like the school shooting in Nashville Tennessee, where the body cam recorded the death of the shooter. Then there are the mystery mass murders that are left unexplained: the Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Resort concert shooting that has never been properly reported. The mathematical impossibility that one shooter could exact so much damage with no apparent help or motive. It remains the worst mass shooting in American history and no one can explain why, or how exactly, it happened. Then there is the Maui Fire of August 2023. So much of it is still inexplicable, including the fact that so many "Blue" items in the path of the wildfire remained untouched. That some buildings burned from the inside out, and that many witnesses reported bright columns of intense energy raining down from the sky and exploding with enormous power across the island. There are simply too many of these powerful examples of horrendous events that after only a few months in the headlines seem to fade into oblivion. People are too jaded to care any more. It is just TMI to absorb and the emotional toll is just too high to worry about. So what do we "citizens" do? How can we get control over our own destiny? Or is that just a figment of our imagination? Maybe it is just inevitable that we should turn our attention to making ourselves happy. Fill our time with frivolous entertainment and self indulgent relationships with friends and food. I think the evidence is clear, that is what people in the 21st century are getting extremely good at. Move along, there is nothing here for you to be bothered about. Has it ever occurred to you that there is one thread running through all of the insane Diversity, Equality and Inclusion activists? A vein of anger and instability that permeates everything they say and do? A thread that ties all of the seemingly divergent special interest groups together? Something that lies beneath the exterior contrivances and camouflage used to divert attention from one simple commonality that they all have? When I look at the most egregious purveyors of racial animosity, of cancel culture, of religious hatred and violence, and those that celebrate satanic images, dress in sexually provocative and mostly perverse costumes, and mutilate their own bodies, I see lonely, mentally unstable, often aggressive people who have been abandoned by their parents and have been broken by their inability to cope with their own emotional dumpster fire. The common denominator amongst them all is sexual deviance and a sense of alienation. When it was relatively rare a few decades ago, I was just saddened by them. But as their numbers have grown exponentially, I am now angered. I see a social catastrophe unfolding, and instead of putting our heads together and confronting this widespread social problem, we have collectively decided to reorder our value system to embrace their disorders and normalize their bizarre and often dangerous behavior. If you can't beat it, join it. I think it all came to a boil with the election of Barack Obama. The normalizing of homosexuality, transgenderism, anti-semitism, anti-Christian bigotry, anti-monogamy, anti-intellectualism, and the outright assault on traditional family values. It was never confronted, but the truth is Obama is a homosexual married to a transgender male, dressed as a fashionista female. They are the quintessential Social Justice Warriors. They have brought the issues of racial economic disparity, white supremacy and transgenderism to the forefront of the body politic. The far left forces that are currently dominating the Democratic Party have parleyed those into massive tsunami of social conflict. With a sexually ambivalent Black Man at the helm, it became the rage to be non-binary. Since that point in history, public service jobs have mostly gone to favored non-traditional applicants. Now it is difficult to stay employed at colleges and universities if you don't tow the DEI line. You have to bow to the Progressive narrative in the medical field (doctors in California were threatened with license suspension if the even spoke about alternative COVID therapies like Ivermectin). First responders were forced to be innoculated by the untested and unproven COVID vaccine. Folks who work in public transportation, local government offices and any publicly funded or contracted business likewise had no choice but to submit to the jab. These were to become the tools of enforcement. Now we have elementary schools putting on Drag Shows in their libraries, school boards demanding children receive transitional drug and psychological therapy with or without parental knowledge or consent. Mass media is saturated with images of homsexuals kissing, single parents shacking up, unmarried adults pretending to manage a family, as though there are no negative ramifications. Under the guise of using the media to properly reflect America, it is instead producing blatant "Progressive" propaganda. They are grooming the population to accept their idea of a Diverse, Equatable and Inclusive Promised Land, and nonconforming sexual activities. Whenever the opportunity presents itself, media celebrities pat themselves on the back and proclaim success, when by any unbiased measure, the results are causing serious side effects throughout America, and the world. Marriage is dying, childbirth is down, suicide is up. Childhood poverty and starvation is up, sex trafficking is widespread, drug use is out of control, and our cities are flooded with homeless. Not only are the marginalized minorities of sexual persuasion upset, but every special interest group on Earth is up in arms and demanding more and better benefits and special treatments. Why not us? What's good for the Goose is good for the Gander. From those with physical abnormalities to those who choose to be nonconformist, and everything in between, they all are standing in line looking for more government assistance. And the Progressive government is eager to sign them up and bring them under some new taxpayer funded organization that will effectively endure them to the Democratic Party.That is why they have dropped all pretense of border security. Joe Biden has invited the world to Come to America Now! "We offer health insurance, jobs, drivers licenses, and even the right to vote for more in the future"! This is how Communism works. It divides up the workers, then herds them into "boot camps" where they are reprogrammed to accept the company line, then organized with other special interest recruits to exert political power to further entrench their group into favorable economic status. Its like herding cats, but in the end they will act more like sheep because they will be convinced it is in their own best interest. Look at the Democratic Party today: It is made up of tribes of blacks, feminist women, Muslims, atheists, non-binary's, Latinos, ex felons, union members, academics, entertainers and retirees who depend on government services. It has alienated Christians and Jews, independent business owners and operators, former Communist country refugees, married couples with kids, men in general, and many scientists and engineers who must remain a-political or risk losing their jobs. But it is still a very powerful consortium, and when in power, it becomes a ruthless regime that will do anything to remain in power. And with the power to print dollars, it has the lubrication it needs to make the trains run on time. One of the most influential forces around the world is the proliferation of verbal abuse. With the rapid expansion of information exchanges through technology, what we say can be more powerful than ever. You don't have to be a celebrity or politician, or even a journalist, to reach millions of minds with your ideas. Manipulating language has always been dangerous, but now it carries enormous impact, because the millennial and gen-z generations are super sensitive to personal grievance, to passive aggression, to any form of criticism, and their emotional balance is paramount in their life.
Hate is perhaps the strongest and most pervasive emotion that can be blamed for cultural unrest. So it is an easy tool of propaganda. Ascribing hatred to a person or a group is virtually indefensible. You can't disprove a negative, intangible and ugly defamation. It is the perfect weapon because it can cause enormous damage that can never effectively be detoured. Let's assume you never bought the idea that the 2020 election was stolen. You have either ignored or dismissed the mountain of forensic evidence that has been meticulously researched and revealed since. You still don't buy these indisputable facts:
OK, I disagree with you, but for the sake of discussion, we have to agree on one basic pretext: COVID19 fundamentally changed the way America collects votes. Most of those had an anomalous effect on that election, and the totality of those effects have yet to be determined. The 2020 election introduced many new and essentially unvetted pathways to submit votes. Which also created waves of votes that could never be authenticated because they did not require any form of traceable identity. No verifiable signatures or addresses, no connection to voter registration logs or any way to validate voter registrations.Those process requirements previously required were deemed too difficult to enforce during the social restrictions imposed by the pandemic. So they were abandoned in many states. The Center For Tech and Civic Life spent $400M to "secure" the 2020 federal election. What do you suppose that money was spent on? Where was it spent, and why was it necessary to lavish so much cash on certain areas of influence? Who was involved and were they ever investigated for exerting an inordinate amount of influence on the voting process?The simple answer is no because questioning the efforts of such reputable social influencers as Mark Zuckerburg, George Soros, Michael Bloomberg and hundreds of leftist activists, would be downright unfair and racist. So the massive amounts of cash that were supposedly for "protection from COVID" were actually spent to "protect" America from Donald Trump and his "fascist" supporters. I simply want to get your opinion: Is it OK for our government to…
Since when did law enforcement agencies decide to ignore due process and hold suspects in custody with no hearings, no bail, no representation, for months. Then use the "pandemic" as an excuse to extend their detention for years! Until I get your response, I have to assume you also approve letting millions of undocumented migrants into cities across America. Then giving them special privileges and taxpayer subsidies while other Americans are sleeping under tarps in the streets. I'm guessing you also approve of school aged children getting hormone therapy and even serious sexual surgical interventions without parental consent. And for prisoners held in federal jails to be given free access to gender counseling and transitional services including genital reconstruction all at taxpayer expense of course. The Democrats are in total agreement on spending trillions of newly printed dollars to send weapons to foreign countries to help them continue killing hundreds of thousands of men and destroy generations of progress building advanced infrastructure, housing and agricultural systems. You support that too, right? Did you vote for the current administration to decimate American manufacturing and energy businesses, undermine mom and pop restaurant, service and retail businesses, and blatantly marginalize half the U.S. population by allowing outright racist violence against whites to become the "New Normal"? Did you think after the election in 2020 that three years later most Americans would have lost faith in their most prestigious and trusted health, financial and security institutions? I want your comments: What were you thinking then and what are you thinking now? I'm asking for a friend… We all know someone who after years of struggling to deal with bad decisions, broken marriages, drug, alcohol and gambling addictions, has finally hit rock bottom. Someone facing serious legal charges that could result in lengthy jailtime, or worse yet, a fatal automobile accident or drug overdose. That is when parents, relatives and friends decide it is time to confront the person with every available resource they can rally. The time has come to intervene and demand they enter a prolonged recovery program. Offer one last chance to turn their life around, before they literally lose it. Most of us have been there, or at least know a friend who has. We know it requires an unbreakable moral commitment because it's going to be a long and painful journey for everyone involved. So what happens when that person is not a person, but our nation? When the United States of America is itself close to hitting rock bottom? When a nation of 330 million people is staggering headlong into an abyss that could spell the end of the worlds most successful and righteous nation? Think I am exaggerating? Lets look at the evidence:
You have to ask yourself, why is American losing it's edge? What has happened to our traditional winners attitude? Are we experiencing a social implosion? Is it time for an intervention? |
