The Slow Creep of Socialism

E-Newsletter No. 88                       April 2021          

We were originally going to write about the steps that have been taken by the Left over the past several decades to implement full-blown Socialism in our country.  (And yes, they are making slow and steady progress).  However, we will defer that topic for another month because we recently ran across a very pertinent letter that was posted on another website.  The author wanted to remain anonymous, so we don’t know his / her name, but we wanted to share their thoughts.

This morning, I realized that everything is about to change.  No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, lives are never going to be the same.  I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends.  I look at people I have known all my life so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own.  I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone.

You can’t justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind.  We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us.  Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.  People who say there is no such thing as a gender are demanding a female President.  Universities that advocate equality, discriminate against Asian-Americans in favor of African-Americans.  Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.  Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it’s a violation of THEIR rights.  People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.  After legislating gender, if a dude pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him. 

It was cool for Joe Biden to “blackmail” the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquiries about it.  People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees of real or questionable value.  Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.  Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcomed.  $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not.  If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.

And, pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us “racists”!  Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility, and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it is racist to refer to it as the Chinese virus even though it began in China.   We are clearly living in an upside-down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right.

Wake up America. The great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg and is taking on water and sinking fast.,

So…  Is this letter too “over the top”?  We (and several others) don’t think so.  Here are a few excerpts from some of the comments that were posted under the author’s letter.

Yup, my heart is with the author of this letter. However, we must not give up hope.  Please find strength in Faith, find comradery in those who share your insights, experiences, and values; find ways to speak up and speak out.

Will someone wake me up from this horrible dream?  Stop dividing this wonderful one-of-a-kind country from going the way of socialism. Use your heart, your common sense.  Let’s work as one to save our country for our children and future generations to come.  After reading this, has it changed the way you see the way this country is heading, and is that the way you want it to move?

My question is, why do we put up with this?  Millions of Americans died for our freedom, and now we don’t say anything because we’re afraid we’ll get thrown out of Facebook?

Agree! I’m a Latina American married to an Irish/Italian. My daughters are married to English Americans and my grandchildren are a part of this Freedom-loving melting pot that their great grandparents wanted them to grow up in.  It’s time for us to defend what our parents/grandparents and Founding Fathers fought for – Freedom!!!  GOD BLESS AMERICA! 

Next month, we will discuss the reasons why our country is heading in the wrong direction.
