AUGUST – Devil in the Details
Actually the devil is everywhere. The devil personifies evil which is everywhere, we just need to recognize its presence. I believe that the devil is not a man dressed in a red suit and having horns and a pitchfork. This may be perfect for Halloween, but no help in real life. The devil is evil, pure and simple. The devil’s tools are seduction, charisma, thoughts of utopia, the internet, and no limits to pleasure, including sex, drugs, atheism, alcohol, crime, and causing hurt to others. Good, on the other hand, is the total opposite.
Good is based on common sense, religion, belief in a supreme being or creator, responsibility, work ethic, care for others and moderation in our daily lives. Religion tends to give the believer some extra help in recognizing evil and the pitfalls in dealing with it. Warnings to beware of specific evils that are especially destructive are very helpful at times. This has worked for thousands of years for many and has also been ignored by many for the same amount of time. And during that time we have had to make choices between good and evil constantly in our daily lives. Choices can be our salvation.
The above sounds to me a lot like the difference between the liberal and conservative ways of thinking. Liberals want to change everything to a utopian way of life. A lot like living in a sort of Garden of Eden where there are no choices or responsibilities and no limits. This reminds me of the story of Pinocchio and one of his difficult choices. He was seduced into going to “Pleasure Island,” the island of lost boys. Everything was available with no limits or responsibility. It was decadent beyond his wildest dreams, until it wasn’t, and he ended up as a slave with donkey ears. He was seduced with false promises.
This seems to mirror our own society at the moment. We are being seduced with false promises of liberal agendas of the “green new deal” being an easy fix to climate change by getting rid of coal and oil and exclusively using wind and solar without explaining that we do not have grids that can handle this load. The battery necessities, and grids are not powerful enough for this kind or amount of load, and will not be ready for many decades. This, like electric cars, is an idea that is premature and ill thought out. It is a scam. Someone is making lots of money. Liberal education is now about teaching sexual perversion in school and perversions of fundamental subjects that used to be helpful to our young. Liberal politics needs censorship to pass laws that are useless or even destructive. The content must stay hidden until it becomes law. Irresponsible printing of billions of dollars by the Federal Reserve has caused inflation and printing even more is said to be the cure. Raising taxes is said to be the cure for our recession. All of this insanity comes from the inmates of the White House.
Every one of us has to make daily choices between good and evil. We can be responsible, care for others, sensibly educate our young, have a religion as our moral compass and express our patriotism and a love for our country or not. But we have this choice. Until we don’t. We need to remember the the devil is in all of our details with a seductiveness that is very difficult to resist. The devil and evil is relentless, but we have a choice and common sense if we choose to use them. Let us choose wisely.
JULY – Think responsibly
If any of us had the unlimited time, inclination, resources, and the need or will to eventually take control of this country of ours in its entirety, what would be our initial move? How would we start? In the long term we would have to take control of the educational system that is in place at the moment and begin to modify its processes toward indoctrination in our new policies. Next would be the government itself in all of its facets including the military. Simultaneously, censorship would have to be pervasive. Everyone would have to agree on the direction and way of proceeding, with no opposition. All communication would have to be monitored to insure the above with suitable penalties employed to intimidate and eliminate free thinkers. This would undoubtably begin as Socialism or Marxism and gradually morph into an extreme form of control such as a dictatorship or even a monarchy with one person (you) in charge with absolute control over all subjects.
Just imagine what you could accomplish if you were in that position. There would be no need for courts or judges or attorneys. Only your word would be necessary and final. No recourse! An ultimate simplification and time-saver in the daily lives of everyone. Your educational system would include your categories of workers necessary for the smooth running of the country: agriculture, military, medicine, teachers, scientists, and enforcers and servants of all kinds and natures. Life would be enormously simplified. People that you designate as leaders and elite for whatever reason, or those that gather information vital to your rule, would act as an upper house or sort of court that you depend on to keep everything running smoothly.
Your long-term plan as everything expands would then be annexing other countries that have already been softened up for your domination by using your initial plan which has worked so beautifully. And to keep everything in place indefinitely, you would need to start a family, also under strict control. This would free your mind in many other ways. Nothing would be impossible. Everything would be the result of your ideas… So,
As we return to reality, I don’t see the above as science fiction or even fiction. I see this as happening right now as we live our lives from day to day. But it is progressing so slowly that we (most of us) are not aware of any major changes, only annoyances and irritations. Surely someone else will deal with these. I am way too busy. So what are we really talking about in the above scenario? Freedom. (Except for one person). When freedom is limited and lessened and viewed from a distance, there is a point at which it becomes difficult to retain, then improbable, then virtually impossible to retrieve. Only a very vivid memory. Many have said that freedom isn’t free. It takes hard work and constant vigilance to retain. This must not become only a distant thought. It must be a daily thought which can be turned into action when necessary. And who will tell us when it is necessary to act to insure our freedom? Politicians? Courts, law enforcement, those in the Senate or Congress or lobbyists? Agitators, thugs, criminals or news anchors? Anyone? Don’t count on anyone, anywhere. Each citizen must figure this out in advance as things start slipping away from our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Each one of us must be aware and ready to act in the spirit of the Scouts’ motto: “Be Prepared!” Never was anything more true and vital than the “now” part of our history when everything is upside down and we are being told that NO, everything is right side up. People who “think” know how to smell decay and root out lies that are constant and pervasive. They may be few now, but their numbers must grow.
Hopefully these thoughts are somewhat provoking to you, the reader. But being provoked is not enough, only a start. Each of us must now become informed and aware. We must find ways to lessen, then stop societal erosion beginning with our sacred vote, also insuring that it is transparent and legal. And we must also begin to spread our responsible information to those who sit and vegetate. All of our voices need to be heard, not just the liars and thieves. Let us stand up! Let us think freely! And let us sing as one: “God Bless America!”
JUNE – Instability
A large percentage of our American society is now mentally unstable. And this seems to be growing at an alarming rate. Some have dropped out of our communities to live in tents or cardboard boxes. Some have decided that they will restructure or even overthrow our governmental processes at the local, state, or even the national levels. And some have decided to surgically remove individuals that seem to them to be unnecessary or dangerous to them, or even just randomly in their way by violent means. These people think nothing of using guns, knives, bombs, or anything else that is obtainable or convenient for them to acquire. And how do mentally unstable people acquire various means of destruction?
First of all, they usually seem like normal people. They are able to fit into their families, schools, workplaces and society in general. This enables them to appear innocuous to most other people. (“He seemed like such a nice person. He was such a quiet person, a loner with no friends, but harmless.”) So how do we learn to recognize a mentally disturbed person who could be planning a mass shooting or bombing or other heinous crime?
Second of all, we are not legally able to deal with a mentally disturbed person, even if we do recognize him or her as such. This is an enormous impediment to the safety of everyone in general. How do we prepare for the unknown if we don’t recognize it as potentially harmful? And how do we deal with someone who is recognizable as harmful if we are legally prevented from stopping the person or even calling 9-1-1 or the police who are also hobbled and unable to deal with mental instability? If prevention is unlikely or impossible, then we must sit or stand somewhere until the perpetrator actually perpetrates. In other words, when the shooting, bombing, etc, actually starts, then we can become proactive. Then we can think of protecting ourselves, our families, and others. Well, as any intelligent person knows, at that point it is way too late for prevention or even calling for help. Survival is your only thought in the few precious seconds. Or maybe a very quick prayer before something happens.
Third of all, the above scenario is not optimal or workable or sensible. It is a recipe for failure in our security and law enforcement system, both of whom are ineffective due to the skewed political thinking which is governing our present, liberal justice system. The politics of the left has decreed that guns are the sole problem in our society concerning our safety and the safety of our schools and churches and workplaces. This limited thinking is the sole reason that we have this problem in the first place. Their simple fix: make all of the guns disappear. As any intelligent person knows, this will never happen. It is impossible. Like our war on drugs (a failure). The bad guys will always have guns and access to guns and bombs (recipe on the internet) and knives and hand grenades, etc. All that our fractured political thinking has done is make everything worse by the convoluted thinking of our leftist, socialist, communistic elected(?) leaders in this Congress and administration. Their thinking is based on blaming anyone who thinks intelligently and shouting them down at every opportunity. Those thoughts must never reach the mainstream media (who would not publish them anyway).
Fourth of all, the strength of every free thinking person in America is in our numbers. We must overwhelm the liberal, socialist, communist, idealistic wishful thinking policies of those who are leading us astray down the path to oblivion. We must insist on fair, transparent and legal elections at every level. We must insist on fair, balanced and uncensored reporting in all of our media, internet, social media, and newspapers. And we must insist that our elected representatives from the local through the national levels follow through on the campaign promises that they make to their constituents. No more RINOS. No more switching sides when the going gets rough. And no more deviations from the principles laid forth in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. All of the above problems are solvable with intelligent thinking. The liberal, leftist insanity that we have too long experienced must be reversed and ultimately stopped. Our ideals, faiths, justice, education systems must be realigned to the reality of our daily lives. Out of control environmentalists who are ruining our economy and our way of life must be reeducated. And the basic security of us and our nation must have closed and secure borders as does every other nation in the world. Sanity must again be the rule. We must overrule the Mad Hatter and his inept minions. Enough mental instability. Figuring this out is the only way to the salvation of these United States of America. May all people of conscience and goodwill and intelligence come out of hiding in silence and loudly make their voices heard to set our nation back on its original track of respect and responsibility so that we all may once again live in peace and prosperity. May God hear us and once again deign to bless these United States of America.
MAY – “God Bless America”
When the “left” says “zip it,” they mean your mouth, not your pants…! They, for the moment, have de facto control of almost everything that is conservative in our country. How we talk, how we think and act, and how we go about our lives. We are living for the moment in the “Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.” Everything is turned upside down. The “Queen of Hearts” is in charge. And she is a monstrous bully. What the left believes today may be backwards from tomorrow. And anything that a conservative says or does today might be seen as outrageous or life-threatening or even seditious tomorrow. No matter how stupid or laughable is something that the left proposes, we are expected to believe it and abide by it until it is whimsically changed by the left. And if one proposes a conservative thought using common sense, that person is castigated, and shouted down (a favorite tactic), until the person ceases or leaves or quits in frustration.
We used to live by rules. All sports have rules which everyone follows unquestioningly. Any disputes are decided by umpires or referees and we abide by these in every sport. In our government we have a Constitution and a Bill of Rights which we follow and which are administrated by three branches of our government, the Executive, Legislative and Judicial. This has worked for many decades. There are those in the left that are trying to undo the system, which is the best system in a world of other systems. The changes proposed are seemingly taken right out of “Alice in Wonderland.” They are ridiculous, idealistic, utopian ideas based on wishful thinking and relying on the total control of every person, regardless of their status.
That any of this is tolerated by anyone is unthinkable by anyone with even a modicum of common sense, but we are expected to suspend our beliefs and just go about our lives as they start to disintegrate around us. The left is so evil that they will attack anyone and anything at any time. Their methods are violence, destruction, intimidation, bullying, lying and cheating. Their tools are colleges and universities who, by their partial and incomplete knowledge of real life are easy dupes and malleable; the CEOS of large companies and Oligarchs; clueless unions such as that which controls teachers with nonsense and leftist drivel; law enforcement from local up to the federal government; and the courts at all levels, especially liberal attorneys and judges.
All of this is ultimately made possible by the media of all kinds who only report one side of everything that occurs involving liberals and their untenable and evil policies and attacks anything that opposes these. Nothing liberal has any transparency, just duplicity. There is only one point of view in our media concerning our lives, party policy, our language, our habits, our beliefs and our families and children. If we try to protect our own, we are considered “domestic terrorists.” None of this is right or workable for very long. The French Revolution started in a similar way and its liberal policies eventually destroyed itself by eating its own (by the guillotine). This always happens in history when idiots rule and bullies enforce. But, also in history, the pendulum swings in time in the opposite direction before once again coming to rest in the center where once again people can speak freely about anything. And how do we get the pendulum to swing to the right? All people of conscience must vote for people who care about their country and its citizens, all of them. First, however, there must be an election process that is fair and legal according to our Constitution. This is paramount.
Until then, it seems we must start to stockpile food, use gasoline wisely, prepare for our own protection, create a hedge against mob rule and destruction, unite with our neighbors for any eventuality, and once again participate in our churches. This can set our minds at ease with clear thinking based on millenniums of precedent in similar circumstances. Good always triumphs over evil, but we cannot assume, we must work actively toward a fortuitous outcome. Our very existence and the perpetuation of our children and their children depends on this. Amen, Hallelujah, Namaste, and may God continue to bless and protect the United States of America.
April – Acronyms of Reset
There is so much that is wrong in our society right now that it is difficult to distill the main points into a cohesive whole that is understandable. So I will just try to deal with categories that are the most pertinent such as:
ACRONYMS – We are inundated with them daily: AOC, FBI, CIA, AAA, LOL, ASAP, OMG, BTW, POTUS, SCOTUS, etc. You get the idea, so here are some new ones that will become part of the new Reset (socialistic societal revamp) that is coming toward us unless we unite against it: WEF (World Economic Forum) in charge of uniting us into “One World” economically, financially; GSPF (Global Social Protection Fund); ITUC (International Trade Union Confederation); ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance – leftist controls); MMT (Modern Monetary Theory); IMF (International Monetary Fund); OSF (Open Society Foundations); SDR (Special Drawing Rights – IMF); GCA (Global Center on Adaptation – Global Society); SDG (Sustainable Development Goals – Economy); CCP (Chinese Communist Party); GND (Green New Deal – favored by Democrats, esp. AOC – est. cost $94 Trillion). MMT- print money as needed. Recoup by taxes and inflation.
RESET players: Stephanie Kelton (MMT) Klaus Schwab, Joe Biden, John Kerry, Kristalina Georgieva, to name a few. And for the Reset to succeed, all needs to change at the same time (Green New Deal, MMT and Economy). The trillions needed will be printed as part of the MMT change in the Federal Reserve. There will be a total destruction of the world’s existing energy industry, and the advent of a universal basic income and government managed health care. Also a Stakeholder economy instead of our present Capitalism, which serves all. In a Stakeholder economy, first the ruling class of elites will satisfy their needs, then everyone else is served. The goal of the Reset is “Utopia.” The United Nations will also have a great part in the above, calling their part “AGENDA 2030.” We will see…
OUR OWN EDUCATION – If a lot of the above sounds a bit funky, then we all need to find a way to provide an alternative and then “fight fascism fiercely and fairly. Push back. And what is the best way to do this? Education. We need to do this starting immediately. How? We need accurate information, and we acquire this by reading books written by the best writers in all of the above categories. You might want to begin with: Mark Levin “American Marxism,” Ross Douthat “The Decadent Society,” Alex Berenson “Pandemia,” Tom O’Neill “Chaos,” Josh Hawley “The Tyranny of Big Tech,” Dinesh DeSouza “United States of Socialism,” Tucker Carlson “The Long Slide,” Robert F. Kennedy ,Jr., “The Real Anthony Fauci,” Gad Saad “The Parasitic Mind,” Glenn Beck “The Great Reset,” Abigail Shrier “Irreversible Damage,” Michael Knowles “Speechless,” Nikole Hannah-Jones “1619 Project” (CRT); “1776 Project,”(1619 rebuttal by President Trump Commission), Dan Bongino “Follow the Money.” All of these books are heavily documented for extreme accuracy and for further reading on related subjects. And there are many, many more already written and arriving every day. You just need to get started.
THINK AHEAD topics:
OPEN BORDERS, CLIMATE ALARMISM, CENSORSHIP, TOXIC RACISM, GOVERNMENTAL CHEATING and CORRUPTION, ETC.
Final Notes – The Liberal Left and the Socialist Democrat Party are intent on changing our Constitution, Bill of Rights, Supreme Court, Electoral College, etc., all for the worse. And, they all are intent on giving free passes to favored minorities, criminals, illegals and those who give them lots of money. Let us all keep in mind that all of our sports have rules. We play by these rules, officiated by qualified referees and, consequently, there are winners and losers. We don’t cheat. Neither age nor class, nor gender or color or ethnicity or religion gives us a free pass. This (free pass) is only occurring in the politics of the left. It must be stopped. When we eliminate the effectiveness of our laws and law enforcement by preferential treatment of anyone, we trample on the rights of everyone. When we change our election laws to permit mass cheating, we lessen the rights of everyone. The right to dissent is the essence of free speech. Colleges and universities that permit the evil of shout-downs are no longer credible. They have forgotten their purpose, as have the teachers of our young who think they can teach pornography. This is evil. It must be stopped. These evils must also be stopped in our so-called arts of acting, music, painting, etc. What we are now purveying is the sleazy trash of the street. It must be stopped. Please re-read our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and think ahead to when our children and grandchildren inherit this great nation of ours. They also need to be educated as to the preservation of our most precious freedoms: That they and every citizen understands the price of freedom everywhere as outlined by our founders and forefathers. “God Bless America.”
Calvin Coolidge, 1932 – “Unless the people. through unified action, arise and take charge of their government, they will find that their government has taken charge of them. Independence and liberty will be gone, and the general public will find itself in a condition of servitude to an aggregation of organized and selfish interest.
March – May we think freely?
May we still think freely through our problems, and can we share this process with anyone else with impunity? And more to the point: Are politics and friendship now mutually exclusive? Or is this the case only when censorship of some nature is present? I am reading a very interesting book by Gad Saad entitled “The Parasitic Mind” (How infectious ideas are killing common sense). The author is a college professor who, against incredible odds, is trying to teach critical thinking to college students who are already infected with what he calls “Ostrich Parasitic Syndrome” or (OPS). These students are already infected by ubiquitous slanted news which is making it almost impossible to think critically. This will continue to be a problem unless there is a drastic change for the better soon. Someone said “I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend with my life your right to say it.” Those days may be temporarily gone, but we all need to bring them back.
When insanity is the rule, the insane will accuse all dissenters of their own malady. Common sense and rationality become sins. When this is the case is it possible for the censored mind to still think critically? When the news and media of all types are in lockstep with persuasive propaganda, is it then possible to have an unfettered and clear way of thinking through our problems? When this is the norm, and everyone seems to be traveling along the wrong path, is it possible for only one person to make a difference by stating truths with freedom of thought? Or are we all doomed to live our lives in the “Mad Hatter’s Tea Party?” Or will one clear statement of truth have the same result as “The Emperor’s New Clothes?” In this time of our ongoing history, think: Open borders (long-term effects), skewed and cheated elections (long-term effects), out-of-control government (immediate effects), inflation spiraling up (prices of food and gas and necessities out of control), Unnecessary laws and mandates are controlling our lives and our health care even though untested and unvetted (causing worse health problems, including incapacitation and even death). When the insane are in control, no dissent is allowed. Dissenters are terrorists, racists (fallback buzzword) or in collusion with Russia.
This breakdown of the basic tenets of our freedoms contained clearly in our Constitution and Bill of Rights becomes a part of the new executive, legislative and judicial branches of our tentative government. And they are now controlled by “wrong thinkers” from the far left (Marxists and socialists) and “parasitic minds” (which infect our brains, deleting common sense thinking). This control also extends to the acronyms in our government: CIA, FBI, DHS,NIH, NIAID, etc., etc. The thinking mind wants to know if there is a solution. Is there a way to rid our lives of censorship, leftist control tactics, racist disease, Marxist or socialist idealism and return to our basic truths and freedoms?
Long term solutions must start with all levels of education, beginning with the removal of wrong thinking teachers of all levels and tenured professors of intellectual garbage. Elected removal of wrong thinking school boards which espouse the evils of racist diseased CRT, sexual deviations which are unnecessary and evil, mindless propaganda and anti-American treasonous, poisoned thinking. We need to get back to parental control starting with fair elections of believers in American ideals. National and state elections also need to be transparent and legitimate. The cheating of the leftist party of socialism must adhere to the same rules and parameters as the conservative party. Clear thinking must once again prevail with freedom and truth in the right to dissent and the right to worship freely.
In any society there are thinkers and followers. Leaders can be either. When our Federal leaders are more concerned with accumulating money than leading, they need to be replaced. This also should include the moneychangers (usurers, lobbyists) who take unfair advantage, particularly in finances. These parasites must be distanced and held to the same rules and parameters as everyone else. How do we accomplish this? Term limits would be a good way to start. Gradually eliminate the ones who have been so long in their position that they are jaded, wealthy and have forgotten that their constituents are the reason that they started. No more geriatric leaders with arthritic thinking. This also needs to prevail in State governments, governors and local leaders.
The thinking of our founders was not diseased or parasitic or arthritic. It was clear, unfettered long-term thinking which has made us the greatest nation on the earth. Those who would negate this thinking and attempt to destroy our reason for being need to be replaced in legitimate, fair and transparent elections. If we need to re-“Awakened” then let each of us stand and be heard. Uncensored and unfettered. Let us all say (and sing) in unison: “God Bless America!”
