Infringed

 

One person’s rights cannot interfere with another’s.

“In talking about human rights today, we are referring primarily to the following demands: protection of the individual against arbitrary infringement by other individuals or by the government; the right to work and to adequate earnings from work; freedom of discussion and teaching; adequate participation of the individual in the formation of his government. These human rights are nowadays recognized theoretically, although, by abundant use of formalistic, legal maneuvers, they are being violated to a much greater extent than even a generation ago.” Albert Einstein.

“Trans rights are human rights.” “Black lives matter.” “Affirmative action.” “LGTBI+ rights.” Worker’s rights.” One person’s “rights” cannot supersede another’s rights. One person’s rights cannot negate the rights of another individual. A “right” is to be equally applied. No one can demand special dispensation in the application of his or her rights. Yet that is exactly what the left demands. Arbitrary application and acknowledgement of special privileges to those deemed favored by the mob. The oppressed vs. the oppressors. The aggrieved vs. the subjugators. The have-nots vs. the haves. Poor vs. rich. Black vs. white. It’s getting hard to keep track of all the aggrieved classes.

Each victimized class has one thing in common; They blame everyone but themselves for whatever woes they believe are afflicting them.

·         Reparations are demanded by African Americans for slavery that none of them endured, to be paid by those who never participated in that evil.

·         Taxes are demanded to combat climate change from countries that have reduced emissions exponentially, while China and India, that pollute with impunity, are exempt.

·          Mentally ill persons who engage in the fantasy of gender reassignment demand acknowledgement of chosen pronouns and acceptance of their delusional behavior. And virtue signaling leftists advocate for trans rights.

·          Affirmative action was deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, so the left infuses DEI into the nation’s consciousness, disregarding merit and skill.

·          Entrepreneurs invest time, money, and talent, risking their finances to create wealth, products, and jobs while the Democrat Socialists of America advocate to redistribute that wealth in a fairer and more “equitable” manner.

The Marxist playbook uses the same tired strategy that demonizes those they oppose and pits person against person. Marxism destroys unity and fosters an environment of distrust. As long as enough people fall prey to ideology of hatred of their fellow man, Marxism can grow and thrive. And it has gathered quite a throng of believers. What was once a discredited ideology has gained traction among the 18-25 demographic. This newfound popularity helped elect an Islamist-Communist as Mayor of New York City and other avowed Marxists have defeated several long-tenured democrat representatives in Ohio, Colorado, and California. In Wisconsin the leading democrat candidate for Governor is a self-proclaimed Marxist-communist.

This societal drift has been enabled due to the apathy on steroids that has gripped the nation. Social media, with algorithms that rinse and repeat your favorite viewing patterns, has become the primary source of “news” for many people. Some are more interested in the rantings of influencers than paying attention to what really matters. For Marxism to thrive, the masses must be distracted from the priorities that enable a free society to survive. For communism to take root, God must be eliminated from the equation. For freedom to be destroyed, envy, one of the seven deadly sins, must be embraced by the populace. Accepting the premise that taking what is not yours and that which you did not earn, fuels the engine of “democratic socialism.”

A right relationship with Jesus Christ must be first and foremost in our lives. Living a life following Him will emphasize what matters most. Loving your neighbor will enable each of us to value our human rights without denying other people’s rights. My rights are no more important than any other’s and if imposing my rights on others violates their rights, I am in the wrong. Marxism will violate the human rights of those deemed subordinate, productive members of society, by the proletariat. Marxism is real. Marxism is here. Marxism will take over if we fail to awaken from our slumber. Marxism can be stopped and relegated to where it belongs, the trash heap of history.

We can make a statement this November. We can choose to reject the leftward lean of the democrat party. It is up to us to defeat Marxism. You can choose to be part of the solution, or you can sit by and let this nation fall. What say you?

Crazy

 

We allowed this to happen.

History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Too busy to pay attention to the leftward drift of our schools. Too busy to get involved in local politics, especially school boards. Someone else can do the heavy lifting. Excuse after excuse. Our failure to adhere to our civic responsibilities has allowed Marxist professors to instill their leftist ideology into teachers, who in turn indoctrinate our children. Woke school boards and leftist administrators enable values and morals most Americans oppose to be infused into the next generation. All this while we sit back and acquiesce to this cultural drift from normalcy to crazy. There is good reason that Marxists gave up their goal of a violent revolution and instead concentrated their efforts on infiltrating academia. It is, and continues to be, an effective strategy to create dissention and chaos, with the ultimate goal of destabilizing society.

“All who have meditated on the art of governing mankind have been convinced that the fate of empires depends on the education of youth.” Aristotle

The gravest threat to a free nation is an apathetic population. When good people fail to exercise their constitutional right to cast a vote for their representatives, bad people are elected. When good people don’t pay attention, evil thrives. When good people fail to stand up against evil, that evil will overwhelm them. We the people have the power to hold the powerful accountable. It is with your vote that people who uphold the Constitution, who are servant leaders that place others first, and share your common values are put into office. The founding fathers were wise when our Constitutional Republic was formed. It is our responsibility to keep it.

“When evil men plot, good men must plan. When evil men burn and bomb, good men must build and bind. When evil men shout ugly words of hatred, good men must commit themselves to the glories of love.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

The rise of “democratic socialism” or what truly is Marxism, has been enabled by our lack of courage to oppose it. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) embrace the same goals as does radical Islam; to destabilize the west and institute their chosen form of government. Yet, the legacy media obfuscates the danger posed by these radical ideologies. They support all things left and denigrate traditional values, shaming those who cherish merit, normalcy, and the nuclear family. Leftist ideology is tearing apart the fabric of society. The embrace of Marxism by our indoctrinated young people will end this nation as we know it if we allow it.

“It is in the interest of tyrants to reduce the people to ignorance and vice. For they cannot live in any country where virtue and knowledge prevail. The religion and public liberty of a people are intimately connected; their interests are interwoven, they cannot subsist separately; and therefore, they rise and fall together. For this reason, it is always observable, that those who are combined to destroy the people's liberties, practice every art to poison their morals.” Samuel Adams.

Quite possibly one of the greatest prophesies from one of our founding fathers. This leftist “woke” ideology promotes the notion that gender is a social construct and is as fluid as the Great Lakes. LGBTQ+RSTUVWXYZ is endorsed as good, right, and salutary to the public while leftist teachers encourage children to experiment with alternate genders and sex roles. Sex sells and deviant sex is apparently that which fuels the leftist agenda. As our youth is inundated with this woke BS, many are falling prey and believe that they are fighting for right. Unfortunately, our youth can only parrot phrases that will never be true.

“Leftists are activists. This is a strategy. Liberalism, communism, socialism, you don't need to go too deep - a peripheral study of Marxism. And you'll learn that Marxism, leftism, liberalism, they have long-term strategies for taking over and controlling whole populations. It is their objective.” Rush Limbaugh.

President Trump is decried as a tyrant at “No Kings” rallies, while Marxists occupy the throne, directing their “useful idiot” automatons to do their dirty work, bought and paid by billionaire Marxists like George Soros and Neville Roy Singham. The enemy is no longer at the gate; it has infiltrated every aspect of our society. Every policy espoused by these Marxists leads to one desired outcome; destabilization and the destruction of society that leads to the destruction of democracy. What was once unthinkable is now mainstream, promoted by the leftist legacy media and the democrat party. Allow democrats to regain power and we will get what we deserve; the fall of the shining city on a hill.

“People are eternally divided into two classes, the believer, builder, and praiser...and the unbeliever, destroyer and critic.” John Ruskin.

This is your nation, the last great bastion of freedom in the world. Don’t let the wicked destroy this one nation under God.
