To see biological males win “woman of the year” awards and others compete against women in sports, and at least one paid to promote sports bras, it’s obvious the American mind has slipped a few gears. But our current troubles are about more than celebrating what is clearly a mental illness that needs to be treated. We have lost our way almost entirely across the board.
The locus of our insanity, one could argue, is Washington, D.C. The federal government developed a habit long ago of spending beyond its means. But the foolishness has reached new levels.
The federal debt is heading to $31.7 trillion like a freight train at full throttle with no brakes. Spending is outpacing revenue by more than $1.5 trillion. Social Security is headed for collapse sooner than its appointed guardians had expected, but the collective vision among our “leaders” on the Potomac doesn’t go beyond the next election. So nothing is done.
Despite the obvious problems, the Democrats want to tax higher and spend more. The supply of vacuity seems endless.
Washington is also at the axis of weaponized government. Free speech is being crushed, dissent from the left’s political agenda is considered an imprisonable offense, and court rulings are to be ignored if they offend progressive sensibilities (yes, we know, two words that don’t belong together). The Democrats see the IRS not as just a revenue collector but also as a truncheon with which to discipline those who refuse to live under their boots. Parents who grouse at school board meetings? They are of course terrorists who must be watched.
It’s no coincidence that we’re living in riotous times. The damage seems to build with every news cycle. But to listen to the Democrats and their communications department, also known as the mainstream media, the only riot in U.S. history was on Jan. 6, 2021. In their twisted minds, rampaging, killing, burning, and looting in the name of George Floyd, or some imagined resistance to fascism, are just benign elements of mostly peaceful protests. Democrats have even contributed money to bail out the “protesters.”....

Around a third of registered voters in the U.S. (34%) identify as independents, while 33% identify as Democrats and 29% identify as Republicans, according to a Center analysis of Americans’ partisan identification based on surveys of more than 12,000 registered voters in 2018 and 2019.
Though many Democrats are probably becoming radical Left, not all are.
The percentage of Radical Left we call Woke is probably around 25+.
Most Democrats think of and define capitalism as Wall St and greed.
Bottom line: When people say they favor socialism, they are NOT saying Marxism (at least not yet). And when they say "capitalism"...they are not thinking of what it really is, and that is, "free markets."
All that said, people, particularly young people, are too effing stupid to know what they are saying or agreeing with.
I am not disagreeing that more than a small minority favor socialism (though they cannot define it).
The small minority I am talking about consists of the freaks who believe it is okay to perform gender reassignment surgery on extremely young children and to hold drag shows in libraries and teach "white supremacy" to high school kids while preaching that math and science are racist. That is the minority! And it is that minority that is in control of the government, our schools, and the media.

Thanks - I hadn’t seen this site.

What you are seeing is called”reprobation”; it is spiritual psychopathy and the clinical description is found in Rom.1:18-32.
The only way to protect our children and ourselves is to avoid those who manifest this pathology.
(Look up the clinical description of a psychopath/sociopath and compare to Rom. 1:18-32 and II Tim. 3:1-5; the Holy Spirit through the apostle Paul had them figured out centuries ago.)
The smaller “we” part of 1938 Germany were rounded up and put into camps. Don’t be so sure “we” won’t be among that group in a few years.

Right. And there will be no brave fighting Americans to come bail anyone out.
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance 2Peters 3:9
