The Left Cashes In On The Real Red Wave

Fifty-seven years ago, Ayn Rand predicted the red wave sweeping America today.

The Left Cashes In On The Real Red Wave By Eileen F. Toplansky Indeed, there was a red wave but not the one conservatives had hoped for. It was, however, the continuation of the leftists’, Marxists’, and communists’ eternal obsession to destroy America and obliterate her values—and Ayn Rand predicted it in her 1965 seminal book titled The New Left: The Anti-Industrial Revolution.

Frighteningly prescient, Rand understood the beginnings of the “intellectual disintegration” that is now front and center in most colleges. Fifty-seven years later, the Left is “cashing in” on its quest for ultimate power.

Ground Zero was the “so-called student ‘rebellion’” that started at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1964. Billed as a Free Speech Movement, it was anything but. William Peterson, a professor of sociology at the time, wrote:

The first fact one must know about the Free Speech Movement is that it has little or nothing to do with free speech . . . . If not free speech, what then is the issue? In fact, preposterous as this may seem, the real issue is the seizure of power.

Now living in a woke United States, it is no longer preposterous at all as we realize that “the Free Speech Movement is reminiscent of the Communist fronts of the 1930s” wherein “the key feature [was] that [of] a radical core that uses legitimate issues ambiguously [emphasis mine] in order to manipulate a large mass.”

The real RED wave is caused by those with a lust for power over other people.

Dennis Prager has a good piece of advice: Those who are lying to you are the same as those trying to censor you.

They should have invaded Berkley in 1965 instead of Viet Nam?

McCarthy wants to sell our nation’s natural gas to China. What could go wrong? Americans are already paying higher prices for propane over this stupidity. https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2022/11/16/mccarthy-lets-make-china-dependent-on-our-energy/

Great article...that tells us exactly what we already know.

Don't get me wrong, it's good to increase our understanding and knowledge of our enemy.

But all that said, this article stopped dead in its tracks before getting to the good part.

Just what the hell are we going to do about the communist takeover of America?

Don't look at me. I'm still trying to figure out the answer too. But it's time to quit writing articles about the problem. We know the problem.

It's time to start thinking about (and writing articles about) how we fight back in a way that will lead to victory.

As a follow-up to my comment above: If any of you know of any writer, thinker, or other who has suggested a “solution” to the problem of communism in America, please tell me (and us)?

Consequently, “once a country has accepted the obliteration of moral principles, of individual rights, of objectivity, of justice, of reason and has submitted to the rule of ‘legalized brute force’ there is no turning back.”

And make no mistake, that is EXACTLY what "COVID" was all about: "legalized" brute force. It was just a small taste of what will come.

"Red" and "Blue" have been flipped in the U.S. compared to every other country in the world, where red is always used for the left, and blue for the right.

A lot of younger folks won't remember it, but that's how it used to be in the U.S. too. But the Democrats got concerned in the Reagan era that "red" had a negative connotation because of communism, so they complained to their buddies in the MSM to flip it. The media complied, and said that they'd flip the colors red and blue every four years so that no one party would be associated with communism/red.

But then the media stooges just kept it that way to help out their buddies in the Democrat Party, so now we're the only place in the world where red is used for the conservative party, and blue for the left.

The Illuminati and Masonry emerged out of the Renaissance, a time when certain Christians at the the highest levels of Church and society had rejected Jesus Christ, God Incarnate, in favor of the ancient Mysteries, occult Kabbalah, Hermetic magic, Buddhism, karma, reincarnation, and evolution that had entered into the heart of Christendom.

Out of these 'return to pagan and pantheism' movements arose modern pagan/pantheist political systems: Marxist Communism, Hitler's Socialism, Progressive Liberalism, Leftism. and in our own time, Wokism, Satanism, and Transhumanism and so-called scientific evolutionary conceptions

All of these systems are united by hatred of Jesus Christ (Gen. 1; John 1) the world as it exists, hatred of human bodies, Christian grounded Western and American civilization, and all defenders and supporters of said civilization.

Solzhenitsyn had it right in his penetrating analysis of Communism when he said that beneath all of its pretensions of science, social justice, etc. is pure hatred of God.

This being so, only a determined return to God the Father and the throw-down of the so-called 'scientific' underpinnings of poisonous ideologies and the equally poisonous rationalizations used in their support and validation is the only solution.

It was also a tool to further purge the military of those that still harbored any ideas of freedom.

If you were willing to give up your job to not be jabbed Biden did not want you in the military service.

Only those who blindly follow orders are welcome in Biden’s army.

[RoosterRedux]

Thank you for that excellent comment. I agree.

That said, are you saying that our strategy in fighting communism/Wokeism in America is a purely religious one and only a religious one?

I think, for example, that WWII in Europe was a war against an enemy (Nazi Germany, not to include all Germans) who was united in its hatred of God also. But we fought that enemy using our military instead of the Cross.

I'm not saying I am against fighting an enemy armed only with God, but it will be an exciting day when we get to march into gunfire with only our Bibles and prayers.

Let me repeat, as a devout Christian, I am not against that. Actually, I think it might very well lead to a miracle. It's just that my feet get tingly when I think about it.;-)

[Ann Archy]

Thanks.

[stevio]

Only thing I can think of is pray and put sand in the motor.

[RoosterRedux]

I agree about the prayer.

But re: putting sand in their motor, how could we put sand in their "cult's" engine without it getting into our machinery?

BTW, I think you are onto something here. Their cult has to be destroyed from the inside, not by attacking the outside (which would only strengthen its defenses).

We are at the moment when public school indoctrination off out kids comes back to bite us. 18-35 year olds are now coming out to vote in mass.

Yup. It was definitely an ideological "purity" test.

“Rand wrote that “mankind could not expect to remain unscathed after decades of exposure to the radiation of intellectual fission-debris, such as ‘reason is impotent to know things as they are—reality is unknowable…logic is a social convention [and] ethics is a matter of subjective commitment’””

This is the essence of the philosophy of postmodernism, which has completely taken over the universities, and now has spilled out to society as a whole.
