America’s Real War: The Enemy Within

For a brief, shining moment in 1945, the United States stood astride the world like a colossus. In four years, we had built the greatest military machine in human history, liberated half the planet, and dropped the sun itself on Hiroshima and Nagasaki to prove the point. Nazi Germany, fascist Italy, and imperial Japan (three empires that had terrorized the globe) lay in smoking ruins. The message was unmistakable: try America on the battlefield and you will be annihilated.

Our enemies learned the lesson. They have not seriously attempted a direct military confrontation since. Instead, they (and the ideological heirs of the totalitarians we defeated) chose a slower, more insidious strategy: death by a thousand cuts from the inside. What we are living through in 2025 is not a series of unrelated crises; it is the culmination of an eighty-year campaign to hollow out the greatest republic the world has ever known.

The blueprint was simple and brilliant in its evil. If you cannot invade America, infiltrate her. Capture her universities and turn them into indoctrination camps. Capture her media and make truth itself subjective. Capture her culture and convince her children to despise the very civilization that gave them freedom. Capture her institutions (the FBI, the CIA, the State Department, the Pentagon) and bend them toward the destruction of the country they once served. And above all, capture her borders, her currency, and her sense of herself as a sovereign nation.

Look around and tell me it hasn’t worked.

The same intellectual descendants of the Marxist-Leninist movements we spent the Cold War containing now openly run university departments, teachers’ unions, and human-resource divisions in every Fortune 500 company. They do not fly the hammer and sickle anymore; they fly the rainbow flag and preach “equity,” but the goal

The Marxists think they have us surrounded.

[dfwgator]

They do. The GOP isn’t going to make it without Trump. All they have to do is wait him out.

[Uncle Miltie]

Someday, they will tire of waiting and will come for our guns.

That’s the day we put the genie back in the bottle, one headshot at a time.

No religion the leading demographic:

Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord: They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. (Proverbs 1:24-33)

Ultimately shall be quiet from fear of evil, for Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. (2 Timothy 3:12)

So 75% vs 25%?

Is the Pope Catholic?

The Church leadership, both Catholic and Protestant, has veered so far left that many denominations are split in two. Conservatives have begun to notice that there is an ideological war. We’ve lost the first battle.

[MikelTackNailer]

The Marxists think they have us surrounded.

"NUTS!"

[faithhopecharity]

And it’s worked, too

The subversion, rotting out, weakening of our country continues. On all internal fronts.

The D’s promote, vanguard it.
The GOP-e keeps the rest of the citizenry neutralized into misthinking (dreaming) that something will be done to stop it.

It won’t, the GOP-e is little more than the bought- off cheering squad for the takeover

Gramsci’s long march through the institutions has been an unmitigated success for the left!

[Vaduz]

The people that are in the Free Line are the Marxist-Leninist movement.

Enemy’s know the weakest link is the first ones to have join the anti America movement.

[spankalib]

This guy writes well.

I agree with every single thing he says here.

Thanks for posting!

[Elsie]

Lump it all together and the underlying problem is sin.

What America needs is yet another Great Awaking!

[Elsie]

They do not fly the hammer and sickle anymore; they fly the rainbow flag and preach “equity,” but the goal...

... is identical: the abolition of the traditional family, the Christian church, private property, and the nation-state itself. Critical theory, cultural Marxism, wokeism (call it whatever you like) is just communism with better marketing and tenure.

[daniel1212]

So 75% vs 25%?

What does this refer to?

[MileHi]

they have us surrounded

The poor bastards

[mitch5501]

Luke 4:6

[Frank Drebin]

The graph assumed 25.2% as No Religion...the further assumption would be the remaining 75% follow some sort of religion, no?
