Are We Seeing a Cultural Realignment?

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 7/8/2021 6:55:06 PM

Recently we’ve been seeing stories in the news about average Americans pushing back against liberal initiatives. Taken alone, these stories are entertaining, though not particularly earth-shattering. But observed together, do they form a pattern? Are we seeing the beginning signs of a cultural realignment?One recent story is that of women protesting a California spa allowing “perfectly normal women with penises” to use the female facilities. The protesters were quick to point out that they are Democrats and support LGBTGFNB rights. But it turns out there is a limit to the amount of leftist baloney that even Democrats can accept.

Once again an American Overthinker article suggests that there is a limit to Demmunist depravity. I completely disagree.

What we are witnessing is a spiritual revival and revolution going back to the principles and philosophies of our Founding Fathers. The battle cry is In God We Trust! Not in government We Trust. The cultural realignment is really the moral decay that has been going on and sugar coating it. Immorality is a sin in the eyes of God. Pick your choice. Righteous living and being faithful to the Lord our God our worship Satan. Remember Soddom and Gomorrah? SF and NY are next.

After watching hours of tape taken at that protest, only 1 salient fact emerged: the lethargic, indifferent police sprang into action,,, to pose for the cameras,,,, before attacking a few unarmed citizens.* [*supporters of the street preachers, it would appear...? ....massively outnumbered by violent aunti fannies]

The American people never aligned with the Leftists. The Media, News, Internet Monopolies, Corporate Billionaires, and the radicals of one party did. The people never have. That list of Marxists will never change and the people don’t need realigned. We need to Revolt!

The problem isn't that in a quest to combat racism the left has gone to far and begun to teach kids to hate themselves. The left as exemplified by BLM have no desire to eliminate racism. They want to institutionalize it.

I would like to be as optimistic as the author. I do see movement in the ranks of normal Americans. People aren’t so ignorant that they cannot understand that what is happening is not good for their families, especially their children and their communities. The democrats may have made a grave error in arrogantly pushing CRT down our throats because individuals know in their hearts that they are not the racist devils the democrats paint them to be. Democrats have created an atmosphere of hate for blacks to continually simmer in and with BLM they have an outlet to express their anger through violence which is exactly what democrats want to spill over into other communities. There is zero attempt to shut them down for the obvious crimes they commit on a daily basis. Cities, businesses, and lives are destroyed for the sole purpose of creating racial divide. Only depravity would explain the democrat mindset if they believe this is a viable political strategy. Clearly, most Americans are repulsed by it. The others are swept up in this manufactured hate and unwilling to recognize the ultimate outcome of the pernicious lie of CRT is their destruction. They truly are useful idiots and will go the way that they always have when their elite overlords are finished with them. If this country is to be saved, it will be the very same thing that created it. We the people with the help of God. I do believe God has something to do with what is going on. When our backs are against the wall, we turn to God to give us strength and the courage to step up and do what is right. We cannot depend on the Republican leadership because so many of them cannot let go of the status quo although it is destroying the country. They for the most part are self-servng cowards. Americans know it. They cannot wait for anyone else to ride to the rescue. It’s up to us and people all across this nation are answering the call and God bless them for it.

It's not that complicated.There are just more of us who know that 2+2 does NOT equal 5, no matter how often we are told it does. We are the majority. (Remember the riots last summer when a newscaster, standing in front of a burning building, was telling us we were watching a "peaceful protest"?) The majority does not need a t.v. camera and a microphone from some network to tell us what is true because we have blogs and comment sections and our own videos to let others know the answer is 4 and always will be. And I believe the word TOLERANCE is beginning to lose its shine as well. I think the old-fashioned definition of the word was that tolerance was approving of something that formerly was disapproved of. Like Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco TOLERATES people defecating on their sidewalks! Way back, my brother and his wife went there on their honeymoon, but I would bet the tolerance level for poo on the city streets is getting lower and lower, and San Fran is no longer a honeymoon destination! Just can't tolerate it anymore. We know better.

For decades the liberals did things covertly and took control of many major institutions, like the media, the education system, and the government, but Trump forced the Marxists to overplay their hand and expose themselves. The wretched libs do not have the hearts and minds of the people. Most Americans love God and country - freedom is in their DNA. They will not cave to political correctness and intimidation. The Luciferin Left's only hope is a federal police state, which is why they want to defund the local police.

Funny how things work. Let's take sports...and gender separation...it's another form of "equality" embraced by those who oppose equality in other arenas. Why are there segregated events? Because the girls can't compete with me in several athletic areas. The competitive goal is to identify and honor victory signifying the best. A "minor league" dilutes that principle. I'm a slow runner. Shouldn't I get a special consideration myself? Everyone should compete on equal footing, shouldn't they? It's supposed to work that way for school admissions, military status, employment opportunities...you name it. They've come a long way, baby. Anything else providing "advantage" is derided as dilution, affirmative action and such. I don't believe we are seeing a "cultural realignment". What we are seeing is the normal shifts that take place over time in developed society. We are seeing American culture being turned over to women, many of whom are activists and "Karens" looking for the next "good" they can do. The real "cultural realignment" is that men are checking out, abandoning the field. Look at professions, like medicine and law, even politics, and you see the current and growing dominance of women. Males today are just not into advanced education, perhaps becasue the cards are stacked against them. See any special programs to promote males into anything? Unless they are LGBT or "minority"...where are they? That's the real cultural realignment underway. We substitute sex, gender preference, and other such attributes for "merit". And that's now generally accepted, and expanding.

What we are seeing is long overdue push back of realignment of our culture by Progressive/Woke/Democrat elitists who demand we think and do exactly what their ideology dictates or they will destroy us. While claiming to be creating a perfect world, they have created a dystopian hell wherever they are in control.

The Taliban have retaken 12 provincial Afghanistan capitals following the U.S. military’s secretive overnight withdrawal from Bagram Airfield earlier this year (U.S. officials didn’t even notify the base’s new Afghan commander before silently slipping away, leaving the official to discover for himself, nearly two hours after the fact, that the Americans had Irish Goodbye’d after nearly 20 years of occupation).Since the May 1 departure, the Taliban have captured 69 of the country's 407 districts, including ones American and Afghan officials previously considered impenetrable government strongholds against the terrorist group.

WASHINGTON— John Durham, the federal prosecutor tapped to investigate the origins of the Russia investigation, has been presenting evidence before a grand jury as part of his probe, a person familiar with the matter said Friday. The development is a potential sign that Durham may be mulling additional criminal charges beyond the one he brought last year against a former FBI lawyer who admitted altering a document related to a Trump campaign aide who’d been under FBI surveillance. Durham is also expected to complete a report at some point.A Justice Department spokesman declined to comment, citing an ongoing investigation.

China is ready to recognize the Taliban as the legitimate ruler in Afghanistan if the extremist group manages to topple the democratically elected government in Kabul — which would also undermine the Biden administration’s main leverage against the insurgents, according to intelligence sources.Beijing had previously pressured the Taliban to work toward a peace agreement with President Ashraf Ghani’s government — and joined other countries, including the US, to say they would not recognize any government “imposed through the use of military force.”However, new Chinese military and intelligence assessments have prompted leaders in Beijing to prepare to formalize their relationship with the Taliban

President Joe Biden is weighing vaccines mandates for interstate travel, according to the Associated Press (AP) on Thursday. “Still, while more severe [coronavirus] measures — such as mandating vaccines for interstate travel or changing how the federal government reimburses treatment for those who are unvaccinated and become ill with COVID-19 — have been discussed,” the AP writes, “the administration worried that they would be too polarizing for the moment.” For the time being, the White House seems content with shaming those who are unvaccinated, while demanding private companies mandate vaccinations for their employees. For instance, Biden told churchgoers April 1, they were being ungodly if they did not become vaccinated.
