Many people spend significant chunks of their waking hours desperately seeking updates on the hostilities in Ukraine, that news coming from social media, the internet, or various lamestream media outlets.
Others are similarly engaged regarding events in the Middle East and Israel fighting back against the terrorist outfit that is Hamas.
There are even some who – correctly – monitor closely China’s intentions toward Taiwan for indications that the Wuhan is about to hit the fan there. But this is much less common.
I’m interested in all the above, but my focus these days is on dispatches from the frontlines of the cultural war being fought domestically. You should be paying attention, too, because the outcome of this conflict will directly affect your way of life more than whether or not puppet Zelenskyy continues to collect handouts, whether Israel is successful in exterminating a terrorist group, or whether one day China decides to grab Taiwan and dare the critically compromised U.S. military to do anything about it.
Leftists have been waging this battle to undermine this country for decades, borrowing heavily from the fictional playbook “1984” as authored by George Orwell.
It was Orwell’s intent in writing the book to warn free societies – particularly those of Great Britain and the United States – how quickly totalitarianism can arise. He’d witnessed takeovers by Hitler in Germany and Stalin in Russia and feared such a future for us.
“War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength” is a widely cited government slogan from the book, illustrating how governments toy with the citizenry using nonsensical, contradictory pronouncements and dare any to dispute the propaganda publicly.
The underlying theme was that these totalitarianism regimes constantly foment wars to unite the populace against a common enemy.
Leftists have torn apart the family structure in the U.S., bastardized the education system into a WOKE indoctrination program, delegitimized justice enforcement from the federal level on down, sought to end democracy by silencing opponents in order supposedly to preserve democracy (now that’s 1984), and thrown open the borders to allow in an estimated 10 million illegals since Joe Biden was installed as the cadaver figurehead atop the executive branch of the government.
The absurd over-reach of leftists is evident daily.
Just today, zerohedge.com had headlines including the New York City mayor will give illegals preloaded debit cards with up to $10,000, Google’s Gemini AI is accused of eliminating white people from image searches, and a survey has been released with an overwhelming number of respondents from the military decrying the ridiculous DEI training they must endure.
There’s more, but you get the idea.
Planes are falling apart in the skies almost daily. Nancy Pelosi continues to scream “Russians, Russians. Russians” to impugn Donald Trump despite the reality of her party having fabricated the Russian trash as a campaign ploy.
Speaking of Trump and Russia, it is notable that the U.S. embarked on no new conflicts during Trump’s years in office and the Russians were not being adventurous in, say, Ukraine.
Only after Biden was propped up and sworn in, did the U.S. resume participating – overtly or covertly – in various armed conflicts and Russia got brave again.
Trump truly is an outsider, refusing to rely on war to unite the country. Even some of Trump’s so-called challengers for the Republican nomination (Nimarata ‘Nikki’ Randhawa Haley) are big promoters of war and the merchants who benefit from same.
This is why so many residents of what Trump refers to as The Swamp are aligned to eliminate his voice. They censor him, spy on him, persecute him with never-ending lawsuits by prosecutors who ran for office on a Get Trump platform, attack him incessantly in the media and paint any Trump supporters as dangerous domestic terrorists.
They toy with election rules and execution, giving a new meaning to the disparaging term “mailing it in.”
They also seek to isolate Trump by coming after his supporters by any means, be they legitimate or not in order to intimidate them into silence.
Ah, but sometimes despotic governments can push too far, especially against an armed populace. It is not mere coincidence that the average citizen in the “1984” book was not armed.
This nation began when the armed citizens pushed back against Great Britain’s King George, for perceived offenses less oppressive than those under which we currently exist.
Biden taunts occasionally that we would need “F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons” to take on the federal government.
If this is true, you would be forgiven in wondering why the leftists are so intent on disarming the populace of our semiautomatic weapons, shotguns and various handguns.
We are in a cultural war and the left is winning. The good news is the right doesn’t need jets and nukes to express its displeasure.
