We Have Been Thinking about This All Wrong
American Thinker ^ | 1 Sep, 2022 | Kevin Lewis

Posted on 09/01/2022 4:30:02 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Why are our government officials doing these things and saying these things that don't seem to help us or our country?

For many of us, the path our governmental leaders have recently taken has been perplexing. Many of the policy decisions that perhaps sounded good (at least to some) have turned out to be not only clearly deleterious, but often catastrophic for our country. Without hyperbole, I mean catastrophic for our economy, our national defense capability, our national sovereignty, the safety and security of citizens, and our standing among other nations of the world.

We hear that inflation is "temporary," that "we are not in a recession," that the administration "feels our pain" at the gas pump and is making a historic effort to bring down prices (though we should really focus on the fact that we are in an exciting "Great Transition"). Even though our money doesn't go nearly as far as it used to, our economy is in the midst of a "booming recovery."

SNIP

These are all good possibilities, each with a degree of validity, but they don't seem like enough. They might explain some things, but not all of them. When decisions are made that are blatantly unconstitutional, when policies are adopted that do not benefit U.S. citizens, and may even demonstrably hurt them, one might rightly begin to believe that there is more at play here — that there may be an even more insidious agenda afoot. I believe that there is. I believe that the goal, simply put, is to make America less, in every respect.

If the U.S. is arguably the most powerful, wealthiest, and most independent nation, with safeguards to avoid tyranny and subversion built into its founding documents, it becomes a major (if not the major) obstacle to a globalist one-world

Boyh indeed.

Evil in what they do. Stupid to think that we don't see it.

That article could be dated ~1992. It doesn’t address the reality of our situation, viz. America is in free fall. It started at the apex and has been accelerating ever since. Terminal velocity is just a decade or so away.

You have stupid ones that believe keeping society all functioning at the level of the least of its members is fair.

You have people who, for pure greed, want to sell America to the globalists to be owned.

Then you have people who really think the Tower of Babel will lead to a Star Trek world.

Many democRAT voters are stupid. Many are grossly ill informed. Some democRAT party politicians and bureaucrats are stupid. They’re the small part of the problem.

The real power-wielders in the democRAT party are evil. They’re evil on a par with the most bloody-handed, bloody-minded, genocidal totalitarian dictators of the blood-soaked XX Century.

A fourth type of person, that I forgot to mention, is that he believes America is done so he is taking steps to protect himself and his family from the globalists.

The idea is to collapse the system and then being able to stand on top of the ashes of a once great nation.

This is one thing that Trump did for me...is really open my eyes to what was happening in our government and who was involved. He showed me how corrupt our leaders really are and how DC has been operating. He said that they were going after him in order to get to us and he was 1oo% correct. I was asleep for a very long time. He woke me up.

The capacity for such against tanks, attack choppers, and regular soldiers is limited. It may make us feel better, but we’ll not last against concerted efforts.

The Demonicrats want to take control of the United States, and the only way they can do it is to destroy what we know as the United States.
