Another morning is here.
I got up at 4:30 this morning to allow myself some time to create a bit of content before I leave for work. So I can pay for things I won’t use, or eat, or even want. Because those are the rules of the race. Rules meant to keep us occupied. Meant to keep us struggling, keep us using all our energy just to keep our heads above the ever-rising water.
The people are wrapped up, too busy to pay attention to what our government is doing to its own people. All while tyrants trade away our future to line their pockets with stolen money and power.
The American people are left out in the cold. The American Dream has been ripped from millions in order to fund foreign wars. So they can hide decades of tyranny. The dream has been handed to the hottest import coming in at record rates for the last 4 years. Illegal aliens.
How much proof do we need that our government is tyrannical?
Congress rubber stamps whatever they are told to and now the Supreme Court is under attack from the left. The last great institution that stands between government and the people is now in the aim of the progressives.
They want to place term limits on the court, to include the current judges. Another way for them to control who sits in judgement of their unconstitutional laws and actions.
They want to implement an ethics code so they can use it to bog down the justices. Look at what they did to President Trump in his frivolous court cases. It doesn't matter if the accusations are true. They just want the narrative. They don't do it to seek justice, but rather they use them politically. They needed those headlines. Trump indicted. Trump convicted.
They play a dirty game. They cannot win without cheating, lying, false narratives and propaganda.
Ahh, false narratives and propaganda. There was a time long ago when these techniques didn’t work on the American people. We were brought up to love God and country. Our faith gave us hope, morals, integrity and so much more. It taught us how to treat and even understand other people. How to treat people like people rather than the label they have been assigned by people who don’t know them.
Our love of country made us a family. Sure a pretty messed up family, but still family. We stood under one flag. United against the enemies of America, both foreign and domestic. It taught us what others had given up for us and how to behave in order not to disrespect their memory.
Both faith and patriotism taught us to love. Now most are not taught. This increases anxiety, loneliness, depression, and anger. It makes the people easy targets for the focus group tested methods of the progressive left. So they can inject their venom into the minds of a lost citizenry.
Mostly it gives them control. Control over what their useful idiots do, of course, but more importantly over what they think.
We are supposed to have a defense to their lies and propaganda. We once did. It was called “the Press”. Now it is called the media. There IS a difference. The press did more traditional journalism. More reporting the facts and less shaping them. More investigations of government. They reported for the people.
Media is produced by a wide range of entities. It can be good and honest journalism or it can be a guy in his basement pushing a narrative while presenting it as fact. There are no standards. It has helped some truth get out there but it has also served as a way to flood the zone. Allowing progressive social media companies to silence and control the opposition’s voices.
We are supposed to be able to depend on the press or the media. Whatever they go by now. They are supposed to be the people’s watchdog. Instead they have been tamed by the juicy morsels that fall from the dinner table of tyrants. We can no longer trust the press and the voices who speak truth are silenced quietly. So no one notices. They silence, intimidate, and even arrest those of us willing to stand.
Good patriots get crushed under the giant boot of a bloated and slothful federal government and their shady public/private partnerships with media companies. Social and legacy media. It tramples over free speech and steals the truth from our mouths. Replacing it with the approved government narratives preached by approved government puppets.
So how do we overcome this?
First and most importantly, we can never quit. Freedom must be fought for and fighting takes sacrifice. We have so many who say they are willing to fight, yet so few willing to sacrifice. We must understand that this is a battle that will drain us of our strength. It will test our resolve, our grit. We will have days where we want to give up. Nights where we just want to go to sleep rather than research, write, or plan.
We cannot allow this to stop us. We have the power even if we have been convinced that we do not.
Secondly, we organize. Easy to say but harder to do. This is where some sacrifice comes in. How many of us want to come home from a long day’s work only to hurry back out to make it to the city council, school board, or political meeting? None of us.
However, “it is our right, it is our duty”.
We must be willing to sacrifice one night a week, a few hours here and there. Something, because it matters. The progressives have spent decades trying to separate us with their wedges, labels, and propaganda. They seem to have succeeded, only they didn’t.
If you were around on September 12th 2001 then you remember what it was like to just be an American. We were brothers and sisters again. No longer defined by our group identity, we were individuals and we were the people.
This is one reason why the MAGA movement is so powerful. It is the only truly inclusive grassroots movement we have seen in America in decades. Maybe even in all of American history.
We must stand as one. Or we will fall into the chains of socialism and communism. With a centralized government controlling the lives of the people. We will likely never be able to overcome those chains once they have been locked. Why are so many willing to put them on themselves?
