“Submitting oneself to slavery is the ultimate expression of racism. I would die a free man rather than submit to slavery.”
Penetrating a lifetime of liberal brainwashing is tough work, but still I persist with my family, where, and when I can.
I find that they can only ingest small doses of truth, covered in a sugar pill, for it to stay down. Doing things like encouraging them to support (and take pride in) our troops has led to a heightened tolerance level on their part to at least listen quietly to small tidbits of conservative truth.
I know for a fact that my brothers and sisters never willingly submitted to the slavery they defend today. It took many decades of constant left-liberal reinforcement to dilute, then supplant the solid moral foundations with which they were raised.
In fact, I have stymied their arguments many times by pointing out the conflicts between their political stance and the imperatives of their upbringing.
That usually produces an angry sibling (see my tag).
The bottom line is, that until a person takes the personal responsibility to honestly inform themselves of ALL the data, they will remain ensnared in the chains of their brainwashing.
One of the central and unspoken tenets of liberal doctrine, is that one must never examine the enemy’s data. To do so would expose liberalism for the lie that it is, and rapidly convert the observer.
But that is the price of freedom. One must be willing to LOOK.
You manifest a generosity of spirit born of obvious love for family and community. That is the essential character of truth. It does not need to be brash or violent, angry or spiteful. Truth is always the source of light in the midst of darkness.
The fire and brimstone preacher makes clear the suffering in sin that plague his listeners. He shines the light of truth in the darkest corners of their lives.
A sweet spirit is the most powerful tool in the service of truth. It is confident, gentle and filled with assurance that the way out of fear and ignorance is in the direction of love.
