We Will Not Cave

I am sick of the media demonizing conservatives at every turn.  The demonization of the Right is unacceptable, and if you consider yourself a conservative and you watch TV, movies, the news (TV and Online), or watch Netflix, you are being brainwashed without your even expecting it.  Imagery, representation, and pixels create a world in your mind of you cannot reverse except through some sort of debriefing. PLEASE stop these behaviors or visit your own demise. If you are exposed to these media, you may well never reverse the damage that they do.  Your views on many issues important to conservatism are being altered and are under attack. May the grace of the Lord our Savior cleanse you of all unrighteousness you have been exposed to.  See these pieces of artwork:   https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/25/arts/design/discrimination-sculpture-madison-park-sikander-women.html https://www.timeout.com/newyork/news/for-the-first-time-a-statue-of-a-woman-sits-atop-this-ma...

Malcolm Gladwell, in his book Outliers: The Story of Success states,   Gladwell says in Outliers that "Being a successful lawyer is about a lot more than IQ. It involves having (a) kind of fertile mind" Being in the right place at the right time is a measure of how successful a person will become in life. Michael Batnick explains Gladwell's theory in the following: "   explains why two-thirds of Canada's pro hockey players were born in January or February "  If you are not heard, move along. Your audience is out there.  Go West young man, Go West, as the saying goes, attributed to Horace Greeley who also wrote " Washington [D.C.] is not a place to live in. The rents are high, the food is bad, the dust is disgusting and the morals are deplorable. Go West, young man, go West and grow up with the country "  Just think of being called deplorable by a political figure when indeed that PERSON is THEMself errant in THEIR ways. Look in the mirror WOMXN. Th...

I realize that some of you think that what I write about postcolonialism, postmodernism, and the posttruth world stems from and was problematized in the 1960s, but I tell you, it is a MORE REAL threat to Christianity than ever before, as in TODAY.  Your children and young people, generations, not just “hippies,” are being brainwashed by K-12, academia (i.e., higher education), and in WORKPLACES. You must understand the moves that have been made by several key players in the world this last century: Jean-François Lyotard, Homi K Bhabha, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, and Edward Said, not to speak of Jacques Derrida and anti-police-state-pusher Jacques Rancière, and so many others, one cannot count them all.   In the work of these people, we see the centers of Western culture being destroyed, for example, the subject or self, nation, family, and free market economy, and not just these; there are more I have touched on throughout my blog posts in the past year. I am attaching a...

In 21 Lessons for the 21 st Century , the GREAT prophet spoke, saying mockingly, “After all, we are God’s nation, so the argument goes, so what’s good for our nation is pleasing to God.  There certainly are religious sages who reject nationalist excesses and adopt far more universal visions. Unfortunately, such sages don’t wield much political power these days” uttering the excellent, profound, and provocative words, “the handmaid of nationalism is religion” as well, “Religions, rites, and rituals will remain important as long as the power of humankind rests on mass cooperation and as long as mass cooperation rests on belief in shared fiction” and “past experiences of the whole of humanity, will become less reliable guides” “The Zionist story fails to ascribe any meaning to Chinese Empires, to the tribes of New Guinea, and to the Andromeda galaxy, as well as to the countless eons that passed before the existence of Moses, Abraham, and the evolution of the apes” and “eternity is at...

Okay, I am not obsessed with this guy, but he is a clanging voice for progressives who would advance many of the problems in the world today. YN Harari writes, in 21 Lessons for the 21st Century , “Religions, rites, and rituals will remain important as long as the power of humankind rests on mass cooperation and as long as mass cooperation rests on belief in shared fictions . . . religions still have a lot of political power, in as much as they can cement national identity and even ignite the Third World War”  This fellow is full of himself in as much as he believes that he is right and that what he is talking about could start THE Third World War when actually he is gaining traction in the minds of those who would be taken in by the New World Order. Many decades before this character was born, the media and many people, in general, were worried about the creation of THE Third World War.  When Ayatollah Khomeini, Yasser Arafat, Mikhail Gorbachev, and Ronald Reagan were on the...

 In Schmit's compilation it is stated that “ International organizations (and governments) started to become more significant external actors after the period of colonial rule ”  One could argue that colonial rule never ended, because instead of Empires ruling subjects in the Global South, really Soviet and Chinese communism, along with Western capitalism took on that role. (more to come)   In the past century, international aid has become an essential part of the foreign policy toolkit. It is especially popular among former colonial powers which spend the majority of their aid budgets on countries that once were part of their empires ”  This may be a result of white guilt, this may be a fine example of how it works on a large scale.  There is implied in the aid that would be given a brown people a type of social helping.   In a way this can be demeaning to the indigenous folk because it will seem patronizing. The help would also push Western of c...

“The pandemic has faced humankind with two sets of choices. The first: totalitarian surveillance or citizen empowerment. The second: nationalist isolation or global solidarity. To deal with the pandemic, a well-informed population is much more powerful than a policed, ignorant one. Global cooperation is the only effective measure against it Let’s hope the coronavirus helps humankind to realize the acute danger posed by global disunity” (quote from YN Harari) The Harari fallacy here is the equivocations by analogy, as follows: 1 st A or B and 2 nd C or D, wherein A is to C as B is to D (analogy). So, totalitarian surveillance includes nationalist isolation, in Harari’s estimation.   Well, if a nation allows infiltration through its borders and that is not policed, it is looking for trouble. The utter freedom to do any blasted thing people want perpetuates chaos. Hence citizen empowerment really does not match global solidarity because that would restrict freedoms.   Harari ...
