The Fifty-Year War on America’s Soul

Liberals just cannot believe that their true religion of saving the world with politics and government hasn’t yet delivered the equality and equity that they know is just around the corner.

Some of us remember the good old days of pigskins and leather helmets, when White folks called “Come On Team!” in educated tones from the sidelines.

This “Go Team” culture filtered downstream into politics.

We have, for instance, the line from President Biden: “C’mon Man!” It still carries the faint aroma of racist white team sports, only it means: “You can’t be serious, pal. Get with the program.”

There is also another version: “Come ON.” It means something slightly different. It means “You can’t seriously expect me to believe this horse pucky.”

That was in the olden days, when white supremacy ruled the Earth and Brit colonialists in India decided to forgive the payment of taxes during a drought on the outcome of a game of cricket – at least in the movie Lagaan. And naturally, because it is a Bollywood movie, there is singing and dancing and plenty of costume changes. Of course. Jolly civilized, what?

When ordinary Americans are bullied into reciting that the George Floyds, the Michael Browns, the Trayvon Martins of the world are helpless innocents and victims of “police brutality” and that statues should be built in their honor, they mumble under their breath: “Come ON. I know a fatherless drugged-out habitual criminal twerp when I see one.”

Nobody except pre-Boomers like President Biden says “C’mon Man” anymore. And you better not let the HR folks at work hear your “Come ON” mutterings. Things have gotten much more serious in our 21st century culture.

That’s because the suffering of oppressed peoples did not end with the Great Society nor with the Civil Rights Act

The 50 year war is to divide us and keep us loyal to gov’t....it is meant to make us look for saviors instead of to each other where we could unify behind true freedom and prosperity for all.
