The message is clear: science is dead. Not only that, but, ironic as it sounds, those who killed science call their political opponents ‘science deniers.’
The only thing we deny is the right of the left to kill the scientific method!
Nancy Pelosi discusses a process she calls ‘the wrap-up smear,’ in which a Democrat lies about a Republican (such as Trump), and then the Democrats ‘merchandize’ the lie by writing about it in the press. Once the lie is written about in the press, Democrats can freely report it as if it were real. The Steele Dossier is one obvious example of the wrap-up smear in action.
Once the Speaker of the House admits openly to lying about political opponents, and even outlines exactly how her lies work, why should we trust her, or her party, with anything? Answer: because much of the public is dumb.
The military has two jobs: killing people, and breaking things. The only other thing the military does is to train, such that it is always ready to kill people and to break things. We experimented with women in combat in Bosnia, and then Iraq, and what we found was that our enemies can use such things as gang rape and forced impregnation to torture our captured wives and daughters, and that very high percentages of women choose to get pregnant once they are sent into combat – an out men don’t have.
Have we learned from our failures with women in combat? No. Instead we have weakened training standards, culminating in the Marine Corps’ statement that it will integrate Boot Camp.
I’m a Marine. I went through Boot Camp. I can tell you from experience that when we use the military as a social-experimentation lab, people die. I can’t even begin to express how much of a mistake this is.
The famous historian, Will Durant said, in his book, The History of Civilization, Volume One: Our Oriental Heritage, “All civilizations eventually perish, for as they become ever more civilized, they eventually find that there is a hungrier tribe still in the bush.” We’ve retreated from rationality as far as we can afford. If we allow liberalism to kill science, and to destroy our military, the end of our civilization will eventually follow.
Historians, such as Will Durant, used to try taking a clinical view of history, reporting as best they could on what actually happened in the past. The saying that ‘History is told by the victors’ is incorrect. True historians know that history is told three times. First it is told by the victors, but later it is told by apologists who are hell bent on their own destruction. Only after all of the emotion is long since dead do accurate histories begin to emerge, and even these have to compete with the histories of those trying to mold history for political advantage.
Our schools do not teach history. They teach virtue signaling instead, and often lie about history in the process.
Our political parties have largely turned into single-issue parties, and the only issue out there is the hatred of the other party. It’s hard to say exactly who started this. I remember it first when Bill Clinton was caught having an affair with Monika Lewinski, and Republicans moved to impeach. In spite of this, Newt Gingrich and Bill Clinton were able to work together to build on the economic policies of Ronald Reagan (and anyone who doubts this needs to listen to Bill Clinton declare that ‘the era of big government is over’). From there it got worse, with hatred of George W. Bush overriding political compromise, hatred of Barrack Obama in some cases becoming racist, and now, with Donald Trump as President, even the concept of justice is dead.
It used to be that when there was a crime, we investigated to see who was guilty. Now, we investigate the President to see if we can find any crimes to accuse him of. That’s not justice. That’s the kind of crap that goes on in third-world dictatorships.
I suppose, to an extent, hatred has always been a part of our nation’s political framework. Let us not forget that Alexander Hamilton died in a dual…
The difference is that politics used to get personal between people, whereas today the hatred from the left is so consuming that it chokes out all other issues, and threatens the very framework of our Republic.
Wake up America! If we don’t get this under control and end liberalism’s stranglehold on our schools and media, our Republic is dead.
And what replaces it won’t be pretty…
