As I have posted before, the left learned how to effectively mount an inversion campaign with the assistance of the media during the Viet Nam conflict. After 1968 the tide fully turned but even before there was a strong counter narrative being pushed by the left about not just the bona fides of the war but about American culture and society in general. The normative view that the US was a huge success and had managed the near impossible of creating a mass middle class society that , as was shown with the Civil Rights struggle, could manage to peacefully (mostly) conduct a major social reform operation. Instead the left used the war to indite the US and Americans in general and their culture and history as murderous hypocrites whose brutish corruption was shown up by the ‘atrocious’ conduct of the war. Normal patriotic, law abiding males who were drafted or enlisted in the armed services were very effectively stigmitized as either dumb victims or psychopathic killers. What was amazing was how well this resonated with much of the more affluent and better formally educated Americans. Being a veteran of service in Viet Nam was only honored within the armed forces during the latter years of the war and after. I know because of direct personal experience with close family members.

The same thing is now going on with the goal of ‘fundamental transformation’ of the US and its culture through normalizing the deviant and destructive and stigmatizing the normal, traditional, historical and patriotic culture. The chief target are normal,law abiding, patriotic, straight males. The same stigmatization and vilification that was successfully used against males who served in the armed forces during the Viet Nam war is now being done to all normal males.

I fear I must agree with you. What is happening in the USA is Russian interventionx not with Trump but with our Media and society. Those who have had it so easy are think freedom is easy and can be conned other life can be easier.

Those who earned their freedom realise the mass of others that are willing to fight and die to take that freedom away.

The enemy never sleeps, Greed and envy is eternal and must be resisted with diligence and righteousness. The key is God, without His help we are not strong enough to resist our own sin, nonetheless others.
