Few things better explain how common sense and morality have been subverted than the “boiling frog” analogy.

Here is a standard definition:

The boiling frog is an apologue describing a frog being slowly boiled alive.

In short, he writes about the normalization of sexual promiscuity and homosexuality. Western society has strayed far from channeling human sexuality into marriage, and procreation. Our society no longer is God fearing and instead Sodom and Gomorrah.

The frog boiled to death a long time ago.

America is doomed. DJT will not be able to reverse the rot. Only a wholesale return to God can save us.

What only remains to be seen are the when and how.

Robert J. Ringer's book, Restoring the American Dream, used the boiling frog analogy to explain why America had moved so far to socialism.

That book was published in 1979.

Yes, I still remember reading it, and still remember him using the boiling frog analogy.

Things seemed bleak in 1979. Then Reagan won and declared "Morning in America."

Yet we are so much worse off than in 1979. It's always been two steps left, one step right, two steps left, one step right ...

Per President Trump, America won’t be the world’s piggy bank anymore. Neither should it be the piggy bank for internal anti-American causes veiled in innocuous-sounding terms like “equity” that really impose leftist inequities on those who took initiative, often against the odds, and dared to succeed.
