Evil is very real, alive and well in politics. Power politics is evil.
My Russian grandmother taught us about commies when I was growing up. I hate communism. It is evil, of the devil.
The irony is that prosperity ruins people and hardship makes them better. Too much technology, prosperity and leisure time
We have a Moral and Spiritual crisis in this country. We lost this nation when the 10 commandments were removed from the town square.
My German mother shared the tales of Nazism, too. I am trying not to be anxious during the times I hear the same propaganda against the Conservative segment of the population The best thing is not to be blinded by Hate.
I don’t know. We’ve always discussed it. I hung out with my great aunts who hung out with their grandmothers. I’m one acquaintance removed from a Catholic Irish woman who was born in 1865. They talked about it.
My Catholic l friends talk about it. Very few of them can shake the idea that to be and to vote democrat is good, republicans are evil. They hate when people point out that to gain power through promoting abortion rights is evil.
When I talk to my contemporaries in NY, women who were socialized in east coast colleges that used to be Catholic but now I still the idea that democrat politicians and those who support them are divine-like and anyone opposing them is evil.
It used to be women had a sense for evil enough to keep their husbands and kids away from it. They knew how people like these current despots worked with it to gain power. But, att least the majority of east coast Catholic women who encourage voting for it, have allowed themselves to be separated from it.
Most are uncomfortable with anything out of their comfort zone so they deny it, avoid it and shut it out
Yes, it matters little what “ism” they call it....it always leads to misery for the masses and enrichment for those in control at the top.
The leftists want to trade “rich capitalists” for “rich politicians”. That is insanity.
But they believe politicians have good intentions while “rich capitalists” do not have good intentions.
Those of us with clear minds can see where this is going and the misery that will befall those on the left as well who support this nonsense.
Many of us will say “they deserve it” and do nothing....which is always how this happens throughout history.
Loosely from Dorothy Sayer’s great commentaries on "The Devine Comedy": 'Sloth’ is more than just the laziness of mind and body. It's the total poisoning of the will to the place where we acquiesce to evil and error in the name of ‘tolerance.’
Americans are good people, generous, kind and tolerant. Many consider themselves to be Christians, but do not know the Bible. They honestly believe their rights are protected by the Constitution and cannot believe the evil things that happen elsewhere can happen here.
The Bible is very clear about these “end times” and what will happen. And it is all carved in stone, not because God is letting it happen, but because WE are. He gave us free will and only intervenes when we ask Him to. We aren’t asking.
However, throughout Obama’s terms and into DJT’s, we have been learning and watching. DJT showed us the way to fight these traitors in our government, and we are beginning to get the message. This is Satan’s world and he is a dedicated taskmaster. He could not have come up with a better plan for our ruination than the democrat party and its enablers.
Too many ardently believe that Evil is a Christian ‘thing’ and eschew it as they do proselytizers knocking on their doors pamphlet in hand.
“5% of the people think; 10% of the people think they think; the other 85% of the people would rather die than think.” Thomas Edison
We deny evil because it is comforting.
IF there is no evil there no sin, and therefore no moral consequences.
We could not possibly be more wrong...
“Was Karl Marx a SATANIST?”
This is the spiritual war. The national Biblical consequence for legalized (king or law) child sacrifice is invasion and conquest. Not forgiven. 2 Kings 24 “And the LORD would not forgive” but a reprieve is given with outlawing. The individual is forgiven with repentance.
Satan knows this. Thus his minions wanting pre-born child sacrifice established in every nation so that he can have his blip in time ruling the world to do as he most desires, kill humans without redemption. He is the one who exacts God’s righteous judgment. He hates those created in the image of God.
Satanism is practiced by both parties in our government. So if we learn the truth about Marxism we can tell the truth.

They are naïve because there has been a S - L - O - W motion descent into tyranny. It is quicker now, but it has been going on at least since FDR. All hidden in feel-good platitudes and resentment of the “privileged” people. Eventually, it all has to end in tyranny of some kind.
Actually I’m seeing public opinion galvanize way faster than I would have imagined. People are waking up fast.
So we make excuses.
I remember how some people reacted to a picture of a teen who had committed a murder. He was so young surely he could not known what he was doing. Evil companions must have been at fault. And this was on FR surely one of the most either cynical or reality based sites on the web.
Having met a few angel faces young ones who would kill you as casually as they would drink a glass of milk I had no trouble believing it.
Why Are Americans Naive About Evil?
Some believe the news media on TV and radio thinking isn’t an option for them.
