If you take the time to piece together the puzzle, you begin to see a very disturbing picture. In seven short months, the Biden administration hasn’t only, via policy and executive decisions, precipitated a dire crisis on the U.S. southern border and an unforced debacle in Afghanistan -- the latter with dark strategic implications vis-à-vis the PRC, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, along with an anticipated resurgence in terrorism but appears to seek to break the American spirit.
The picture emerging strongly suggests that demoralizing Americans isn’t merely a consequence of bad policies, poor decision-making, and incompetence.
We know this: control requires submission. Saul Alinsky summed up the argument for demoralization to achieve control: “Rule 3: Whenever possible, go outside the experience of an opponent. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat.”
In a nation of 330 million souls, accustomed as birthright to independence, submission must be exacted through the threat or use of force and through the enervation of spirit. A beaten down people are an acquiescent people. Go ask Russians -- those still living who endured the Soviet era and who suffer under Putin’s authoritarianism.
The COVID pandemic provided the excuse for the abridgement of our constitutional rights. Threat of force has been a constant should citizens, enterprises, and institutions fail to comply with lockdown and mask edicts. Talk of vaccination passports is increasing. Democrat governors, in the main, manipulated fear to induce compliance. Across the nation, lockdowns led to soaring drug and alcohol abuse and depression and suicide spikes, particularly among children and adolescents. Domestic violence increased.

Bidon, a Spanish pun, is a completely evil man.
The Left wants to destroy the US and US.
The American spirit was broken as soon as the nation's citizens -- including many right here on FR -- bought in the tyrannical fearmongering in the spring of 2020, hid in their homes indefinitely, and compliantly put their diapers on their faces.
Joe Biden isn't the cause of this pathetic rot. He's a symptom.
That is very true.
I think many people are seeing the Covid insanity and the Afghan disaster as unrelated events. But the growing oppression of the American people and spirit, the complete cessation of normal American life, and the adoption of an authoritarian expert culture were all essential factors in the disastrous decisions relating to Afganistán.
I never get demoralized...I just get pissed off.
I believe the damage being inflicted on our republic is deliberate, with a clear and specific objective. The support the perpetrators have is evil, delusional, or both. Incompetence alone does not explain what is happening to us.
I never get demoralized...I just get pissed off.
And THAT is what is so lovable, admirable, sustainable about the America and Americans that I LOVE.
We are NOT going to let this experiment fail.
I agree with this article.
We see tyranny beiong executed on the American People.
Do these tyrants want to bleed for doing so?
I believe we may soon know the answer.
This is a short video that explains how leftists take power and break people’s spirits.
It won’t work.
Gee wiz some are just now figuring that out?
There is only ONE WAY out: secession.
Dissolving the union but keeping the 50 states must be considered. Let them form new republics.
I am beginning to see a pattern. Biden does opposite of what Trump would do, it fails badly, the media covers and the democrats gaslight people into thinking it’s a success. Then Pierre Delecto blames Trump.
Truthfully, you have to entertain the idea that Biden is playing for the other team. Blackmail can be a powerful thing.
Free Traitors started the demoralizing process in the USA by off shoring prosperity and economic security to the 3rd world.
Some people take Prozac but morale is better dispensed 5.56mm at a time.
The first governor that does that would IMO vault to the front runner for the 2024 nomination.
Abbott had several chances to do that, but has so far punted. I'm hoping deSantis is stronger in his actions.

Apologies for the double post.
