While the West mistakenly believed that China would become more like us after embracing Capitalism, the West is becoming more like China; Maoism and Chinese communism are spreading like a prairie fire...One can’t help wondering if it will be worse to lose your freedoms or never to have known what it means to be free. The only hope is for the silent majority to rise and confront the abomination facing our country.
Why are those of us who have had our COVID vaccines still wearing masks? We are protected from the virus and cannot carry the virus despite being admonished otherwise. Is it because Maoism is still shaping our world?
While the West mistakenly believed that China would become more like us after embracing Capitalism, the West is becoming more like China; Maoism and Chinese communism are spreading like a prairie fire.
For those of us who had the opportunity to travel to China following Richard Nixon’s 1972 visit, besides the overall bleakness resulting from Chairman Mao Zedong’s reign, the uniform that every person in China wore was disconcerting. The Mao jacket was the quintessential Chinese communist apparel. It symbolized Mao’s ideology: he intended to equalize more than a billion people by what they wore.
Does this sound familiar? Is the mask a means to “equalize” the West?
Dr. Fauci, whom some see as the leading authority on all things COVID, promotes wearing the mask despite inoculations. He has even suggested that we wear two masks.
Since ascending to extraordinary national prominence, Fauci has moved the goalposts; flip-flopped on masks; obfuscated the facts; been seen in public without his apparel; and, outside the media and some true believers, lost credibility.
One must ask, though: What is behind Fauci’s confusing messaging? After all, he is not a dumb man.
Liberal activists like Fauci, including those ensconced in the White House, appear to be drunk with power and deliberately moving toward the Chinese social control system that Barack Obama set into motion. It was Obama who promised “fundamentally transforming the United States of America.”
And “the mask” is not the only means of controlling our society.
Consider the Biden administration running roughshod over the First, Second, and Tenth Amendments to our Constitution. (The less famous Tenth Amendment reserves for the states all power not explicitly lodged with the federal government.)
Then there’s the hare-brained idea of vaccination passports.
And there is more, so much more. Have you read Biden’s $2-trillion so-called “infrastructure plan” that more accurately intends to “reshape” capitalism? Much more money is earmarked for the Green New Deal, a land-grabbing, money-grabbing social control hoax, than for actual infrastructure.
Does any of those in charge know that the climate has been drastically changing since the beginning of time? Of course they do, but never let the truth get in the way of a narrative that works for the cause.
The above is a drop in the bucket for implementing Barack Obamas fundamental transformation of America and seeing the federal government gain complete control over our society.
Far-left politicians and their media accomplices who assiduously protect them are akin to a “jack-booted” implementation of Marxist ideology in America. And make no mistake: the implementation of Marxist ideology is communism and the road to servitude.
After the fall of the Roman Republic, the first substantial constitutional republic to appear again in the world was America. When the lights go out here, the dominoes will fall for freedom-loving peoples across the planet. How many thousands of years will pass before freedom and liberty can emerge from the dark shadow of tyranny?
For us who are on our way out of this world, “fundamentally transforming” America is an eye-roll. For our children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, it is a tragedy. They will not live with the freedoms and liberty that have made America the envy of the world.
One can’t help wondering if it will be worse to lose your freedoms or never to have known what it means to be free. The only hope is for the silent majority to rise and confront the abomination facing our country.
Unlike our corporate CEOs, who, if they aren’t craven, are hardcore ideologues, it takes courage to stand up for America and her ideals in today’s woke culture.
The masks make us faceless and anonymous. That and fact they are almost useless in stopping the passage of virus particles to the mouth and nasal passages even when worn properly, and protect the eyes not at all, destroys what little advantage or protection that is claimed for them.
From the first, I have always chosen to wear a transparent face shield where face covering is demanded, except those venues where the management become real authoritarian about masks being the only acceptable face covering, regardless of their lack of efficacy. I also make a determination that I shall return to that place as rarely as I can get by with in the future. For one thing, I tend to drool when wearing a mask that covers my mouth, and the now wet mask is an incubator of any pathogens, not just the COVID-19 Wuhan virus, but for a lot of other pathogens that affect the upper respiratory tract. I compensate by folding a paper tissue and placing it at the sides of my mouth and on my chin, but even that lasts only so long.
Over my life I have watched my freedoms and liberties erode. I often wonder how younger people feel since I know they have known less freedom than I.
Wonderful, wonderful post!
But just a quibble. The mask is not the Mao jacket.
If you look at images from the cultural “revolution” (which was NOT a revolution, but a political operation against Mao’s enemies), you will see that the targets wear dunce caps, or have signs hung around their necks, all intended to subjugate and humiliate, as well as give sadistic pleasure to Mao’s SS.
Masks are just that. Intended to subjugate and humiliate, intended to let us know we are defeated, and to give sadistic pleasure to the storm troopers who enforce the mask. Sadism is THE primary motivation of ALL communist thinking and action. Sadism is the heart and soul of communism.
“ I often wonder how younger people feel since I know they have known less freedom than I.”
As long as they have the latest smartphone they won’t know any difference. Even today they stare into those things completely oblivious to anything going on around them.
“which was NOT a revolution, but a political operation against Mao’s enemies”
That exact description can also be applied for the Russian Revolution and even the French Revolution (yes, the revolution was not at all organic in those cases. Barruell and Burke make that much clear with the French Revolution.).
