When I think about the changes I’ve seen in this great nation over the course of my life, I’m stunned at the many bizarre deviations that have occurred right under my nose. Did I not see it coming? Was I so confident that the U.S. would always be rooted in moral values that I let down my guard?
Looking back, I’m reminded of the maxim about the frog placed in a pot of comfortable room-temperature water while the heat gradually turns up until the frog is boiled alive. How many of us are so comfortable that we pay scant attention to the rising fever of corruption that has become SOP?
Certainly, if you’ve lived through the past few decades, you’ve seen a steady decline in the cultural and moral values that most of us grew up with. During our younger years, we would have been shocked out of our shorts to hear some of the mind-boggling concepts that have been insinuated into our lexicon.
Imagine attending a social function in the late seventies or early eighties and hearing someone say, “I heard that Mike had that sex change operation and is now a woman. He’s planning to get pregnant before the end of the year.” Everyone within earshot would have turned toward the voice and thought someone was beginning a comedy routine. However, if that person had continued talking seriously about it, the guests would surely think the speaker was suffering from a mind-altering drug. Moreover, the host would have been questioned as to how such an oddball got an invitation to a party with normal folks. There wouldn’t be anyone trying to make sense of such gibberish by attempting to reason with the weirdo.
Those were the days when we weren’t so tolerant of aberrant misfits.

We imported third world trash and adopted third world culture.
I say this all the time: WE live in THEIR world. They steadily move their agenda ahead and we give ground. Start listing all the areas of life, they affect, of the products we use the cars we drive, what shitty performing refrigerant we must use in various places etc. What will be taught in schools. Whom we can and cannot hire. What words we’re allowed to say. They burn down forests in conserving them. They riot and burn down cities when displeased. They attack law enforcement and release monsters convicted and sentenced to life without parole. Their leaders break any damn law or legal custom they damn well please with impunity. They commit serial acts of extreme violence against law and the constitution in plain sightin attacking their political enemies . They openly resist securing an honest vote, commit acts of election stealing that are a conviction on their face, without fear. They openly let tens of millions of foreigners into the country, gave them the ability to vote, steal welfare, steal medical care, steal education, steal American entrepreneurship, drive up the cost of food and housing and on and on and on. WE LIVE IN THEIR WORLD.
Yes more power plan.
