The end of the Marxist-infiltrated Progressive Era isn’t happening with a whimper, but with bangs. In 2024, it’ll happen with convulsions, likely violent. What follows is up for grabs.
The foreshadowing occurred again in Nashville last week. Will the leftist-stoked and Democrat/establishment sanctioned 2020 riots prove merely a preview to a calamitous and pivotal 2024 presidential election year?
Six innocents — three nine-year-olds, two teachers, and the school’s principal — were gunned down in cold blood by a self-identified transgender, Audrey Hale. The act was demonic, though studiously papered over by the establishment media. How does anyone with an ounce of uncorrupted soul look a nine-year-old in the face and pull a trigger? Yet, Hale did just that.
Hale did that because she was raging — raging because a fraction in the trans community are being encouraged to rage by Antifa and other left-wing outfits. Buy guns, trans are told, because “others” are out to get you. (We await the release of Hale’s manifesto for confirmation of motives. Will law enforcement redact the document?)
How explicit could the “Trans Day of Vengeance” have been? It was abruptly cancelled before last Saturday. Though scrubbed, the intent wasn’t. The original wasn’t billed a “Day of Self-Defense” Not a “Day of Peace and Reconciliation.” But cold vengeance, defined as “punishment inflicted in retaliation for an injury or offense : RETRIBUTION.” Words matter.
Tucker Carlson was quite right in his monologue last week: Christianity and transgenderism are wildly incompatible. Forget gobbledygook Christianity practiced by congregation-bleeding churches. Christianity and transgenderism never will reconcile. True science dictates, too, bolstering Christian teaching.
Humans aren’t gods with dominion to “transform” themselves from man to woman or woman to man. Any more than humans can cause the sun to rise in the west and set in the east, any more than man can destroy the earth’s climate. Any more than humans can create intelligent machines that rule the world. All are vanities, conceits, delusions, fantasies. All are Towers of Babel.
But rage there is, because Christians and other faiths refuse to jettison hard facts, experience, and belief grounded in both. Providence rules all. DNA is determinant; nature will not long be defied. Simply put, the Left/establishment alliance clings stubbornly to illusions. A fair share of cynicism-for-advantage drives the establishment, too. The question is, how many of the true believers will lend themselves to violence for errant causes?
Conceits rule and are ruining America. Marxism, wokism, Left reverse racism, and conceits of a more usual stripe: those driven by lusts for power and control. Greed is ancient. If you ever wonder why the establishment and Left are allied, it’s more than the Left’s infiltration of institutions.
Both are allied because they share an insatiable appetite for power. Both will eventually turn on the other, so overwhelming is their hunger for absolute power — but only if this phase of their war on America succeeds, which is far from certain. Yet today, these allies are putting a wrecking ball to the country, thanks to fatal misbeliefs — thanks to the Marxist imperative for destruction — which guide their governance, policies, and cultural standards. Destruction, a form of power, precedes ruling power.
This madness isn’t shared by most Americans. We’ve been passengers, lagging in vigilance… now, though, we’re alert to looming disaster.
The worldview of leftists and establishmentarians are merely their images — bound up with their beliefs — reflected in cracked mirrors. Their insularity reinforces their falsity. These falsities guide their actions, unencumbered by externalities.
In other words, the hard, real world opposes the Left/establishment’s absurd perceptions. Yet, this alliance fumes that a majority refuses to conform to absurdities, destructive ones, and their own enslavement.
That most Americans are better grounded and reject the Left/establishment’s orthodoxy causes the alliance to double down. Its leaders claw for more and more control. And what they can’t control — whoever won’t submit are targeted for annihilation. Cancel culture is just Phase One.
