The Big Switch – socialism’s plan

The Big Switch – socialism’s planCentral to political persuasion is the usage of words in modern language, how traditional definitions are subverted until the word means the opposite of the original intent. What is fascinating is how, by the time the word is accepted under its new guise, it is still emotionally connected to its origin. Trigger words for today have long since been undergoing a slow transformation that has actually switched definitions but not the emotional attachment to what it once meant. As twisted as this sounds, it's primary to converting and controlling public opinion. As an ideal illustration of this phenomenon are two words bandied about by media, politicians and pundits: Liberal and Reactionary.

Education failure hands leftist media victory (or does it?)

Education failure hands leftist media victory (or does it?)Who is it that accepts as fact whatever floats across the newsfeed on their social media? This question must be answered in order to see the complete picture of how this nation's liberty is slipping through our fingers, fingers that don't seem to grasp the enormity of the loss because of the blood on our hands.

Border crisis dictates (un)civil discourse

Border crisis dictates (un)civil discourse Doubletalk has become the hallmark of democrat dialogue, hereby dubbed “DC” to cover both the place of origin and as an acronym for deceit and what once indicated civil exchange of ideas, discourse.

The Christ Timeline

The Christ Timeline Time is subjective. No physics, relativity, quantum mechanics, or string theory will be found here because, honestly, they aren't part of this vernacular.

Corrupting nutrition with "food justice"

Corrupting nutrition with food justice, social justice, food, race, genderAt first blush, it's hard to determine if "food justice" refers to weighing the equality of edible components on one's plate, how what is eaten affects one's sense of justice, if food types and distribution indicates human equality/inequality, or...?

…To spite your face

…To spite your face After every election there’s disappointment and regret. Disappointment if a candidate loses whom you supported with all your means. Regret if you didn’t stand up strongly enough for the candidate you believe should have won.

Who is demonizing who?

Chris Cuomo, Don Lemon A current favorite label used against political foes is "demonize." If "racist" doesn't do the trick of marginalizing ideological opponents then commentators, candidates and hacks are quick to defend themselves by complaining they're being demonized by the opposition.

Mississippi's senate special election is a chance to seat a real conservative

Mississippi's senate special election is a chance to seat a real conservative The facts about the Mississippi special election to replace Thad Cochran have been completely misrepresented by the GOP "Vote Red" campaign. Making voters believe that the senate race is the usual partisan showdown, the GOP has pressured President Trump to endorse the governor-appointed candidate Cindy Hyde-Smith who is a proven democrat in republican clothing.

Twisted roots of identity politics and its influence on the Constitution

Twisted roots of identity politics and its influence on the Constitution Should anyone think that setting up a state where achieving equality is paramount, they are seriously misguided. China's institutionalizing social standards to which all must aspire is not a new concept nor is it a step forward in improving the human experience. It's a rehashing of old control issues for despots who now have technology to assist their implementing a fully empowered state, which means a completely cowed populace.

Would it be so bad if California received a coastline overhaul?

Would it be so bad if California received a coastline overhaul? 1971--The big Sylmar earthquake, 6.6 on the Richter scale, rocked the San Fernando Valley where I lived. The I-5 overpass north of the valley collapsed for the first time and Granada Hills neighborhoods adjacent to the earthen Van Norman Dams were evacuated, which meant a family of seven bunking with us in a three bedroom home already housing five people.

ACLU is now making government policy?

ACLU is now making government policy? This is how “democracy,” which is essentially a byword for communism, takes over. As disgraceful, unethical and unconstitutional it is to install private lobbies as policymakers, the practice has been going on so long that voters haven’t taken notice or care.

Saving America in the face of leftists canceling law and order

Winston Churchill: The fascists of the future will call themselves anti-fascists The conundrum facing President Trump, his administration and the majority of Americans who now support his agenda (for the numbers have swelled in the wake of the president's successes) is battling blatant outlaws holding elected office and on the streets.

Twitter, Facebook and the war against logic

Twitter, Facebook and the war against logic It really isn't any surprise that social media giants are taking heat this last week for the ill thought-out actions of constraining free speech on their platforms. Taking punitive action against individuals under the guise of saving users the pain of glimpsing an offensive meme, comment or video, Facebook, Twitter and Google-owned YouTube has been deleting, locking and hiding content of targeted accounts.

Reviving journalism

Reviving journalism Going from spin to facts, vagueness to specifics and inferences to full quotes. This is part of what it would take to revive journalism. Simple, right? In reality, hardly possible in a world where journalism schools have mostly been redesignated schools of communications, which is a completely different and oppositional field of study.

Paradox of genetic engineering

Paradox of genetic engineering The reinventing of God’s creations, whether it’s laboratory beef or a freakish feathered dinosaur, these strange concepts are symptoms of unchecked pride – that man can build a better mousetrap or, in this case extinct “terrible lizard,” than God.
