That overarching oppressive feeling you and all of us whose eyes are open sense, is from the skies above, the abode of evil Powers, Principalities, demons, etc. They have come down into our atmosphere so as to facilitate the destructive workings and murderous intent of all humans (i.e., Democrats, Luciferians, etc) who are, collectively speaking, their representatives on earth.
Modern 'isms' are not enlightened and scientific but rather craftily reframed elements of revised and revamped ancient Mysteries from the time of Babylon. All who seek personal power, autonomy, and an earthly kingdom (City of Man/utopia) run to them, just as Gollom ran to Sauron's Ring of Power.
Sauron was not Satan (Melkor in the Silmarillion) but rather Melkors' second in command, Sauron. Sauron was of the Powers and Principalities who fell away from God and became instruments of evil.
