No one wants to be swept up in what is happening with our country. I recall sitting in a high school Comparative Government class in 1962 and being warned about exactly what is taking place. Demoralization, destabilization, and normalization. That is how it was done in Russia and the result was the Soviet State.
I wish I had been a better student of history. Like many who grew up in freedom, my greatest sin is sloth and my punishment could be to watch this beautiful country go down under Joe Biden. While we watch cities burn, it becomes clear that we are teetering on the brink of an attempted revolution. American intelligentsia, the dissatisfied and frustrated faculties of colleges and universities, have been dispensing poison for decades, and now elderly citizens are bludgeoned in full view while it is considered necessary for a better world.
This is not new of course, and neither is the near-total collapse of unbiased media attached to the BLM movement. The tragedy of bad education is nowhere more revealing than in the transition of American journalism to propaganda platforms. This could be due in part to the meteoric rise of internet social media sites that resemble Hitler’s beer hall putsch in the 1920’s. The lowest common denominator (useful idiots) in society make great foot soldiers to foment a revolution to hold onto power that is slipping away.
The parallels of frustration and dissatisfaction at Trump’s election underlying the BLM movement are undeniable when compared to the Nazi distaste of the Treaty of Versailles, so indignant, resentful intellectuals in American education can be aptly compared there as well. Recruiting Brownshirts is a tested method to inflict bedlam and intimidate citizens while propagandized media justifies the carnage as good and needed.
Trump really pulled the lid off a can of worms when he got elected and American intellectuals feared a power shift that threatened to leave them out in the cold. Impeachment planning began on the night Trump won.
The pandemic slammed a booming economy and that should have sealed Trump’s fate but the wicked were taking no chances. So, they concocted existential racism for a banner to march under. But the violence was a bridge too far. Trump’s numbers are starting to surge, and the revolution is running out of steam.
It looks like America might survive the coup this time. We must be eternally vigilant to preserve democracy.
