I think it\u2019s interesting that the people who run the western world have decided that life as we lived it is no longer acceptable.\u00a0 The old status quo won\u2019t do.\u00a0 Here was the old contract.<\/p>\n

KJV, Genesis, Chapter 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.<\/strong><\/p>\n

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.<\/strong><\/p>\n

BlackRock and friends disagree.\u00a0 And they\u2019ve got lots of money.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now I don\u2019t see God\u2019s ranking in the above table or how many googolplex US dollars He has under management but I\u2019m guessing it\u2019s way up there.\u00a0 And I don\u2019t remember the Almighty saying that BlackRock shall inherit the Earth.<\/p>\n

But howsoever the management changed hands, the new model doesn\u2019t include us being fruitful and having dominion over much of anything.\u00a0 And instead of the fish and the fowl and the cattle being ours, those of us that will be allowed to hang on for a while under the new arrangement will have to subsist on crickets and meal worms.\u00a0 I may be behind the times but that used to be what you fed a pet anole lizard, not the sons and daughters of Adam and Eve.\u00a0 So, it seems to me that at least in the United States the deal has been broken and not by us.<\/p>\n

Granted, evil men have enslaved humans for millennia.\u00a0 Every free society has eventually succumbed to feudalism.\u00a0 Athens did.\u00a0 Rome did.\u00a0 We will.<\/p>\n

But today isn\u2019t necessarily the day it has to happen.\u00a0 And we don\u2019t have to make it easy for them.\u00a0 The globalists have screwed up the economy and everything else in this country over the course of the last decade or two.\u00a0 And they don\u2019t seem to be all that popular with even the people who are supposedly their bought and sold constituencies.\u00a0 So, whenever we have the chance to screw with their plans that\u2019s what we should do.<\/p>\n

And you can usually see what they\u2019re trying to pull over on us from a mile away.\u00a0 They\u2019re hardly subtle.\u00a0 The Global War on Terror, the Patriot Act, BLM, COVID, the George Floyd color revolution, Climate Change, the Ukraine disaster, transgenderism, the list goes on and on.\u00a0 Well, look at what the Bud Light revolt did to the transgender scam.\u00a0 It taught Anheuser Busch (and Target and Disney to an extent) that American families don\u2019t want to be lectured about men in dresses.\u00a0 A similar thing happened in Virginia when the schools tried to impose critical race theory on the public schools.\u00a0 People said no.\u00a0 And then they voted against the guy who wanted to be governor but said parents shouldn\u2019t have a say in what their kids are taught.<\/p>\n

You get the idea.\u00a0 Pick your battles and hurt them whenever you can.\u00a0 Guerilla warfare.\u00a0 They\u2019ve got the money.\u00a0 We\u2019ve got the numbers.\u00a0 And even their \u201cfriends\u201d don\u2019t really love them.\u00a0 There are all kinds of problems within the coalition of the aggrieved.\u00a0 Traditional societies like those found in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and Asia don\u2019t really support the sexual deviancy that the Left has made the most celebrated part of their coalition.\u00a0 This has been showing up more and more.\u00a0 Using it as a wedge issue is a winning strategy in some areas like recently in Michigan.\u00a0 And with the issue of pediatric transgender affirmative care becoming a flashpoint even in places like California all kinds of unlikely alliances might pop up in the future.<\/p>\n

I guess what I\u2019m saying is I\u2019m not ready to give up yet.\u00a0 Local battles can be won.\u00a0 Many smaller victories can add up to larger ones.\u00a0 Idiotic young people can grow up and become wiser, at least slightly so.\u00a0 And our enemies aren\u2019t geniuses.\u00a0 They can make mistakes and they can have a run of bad luck.\u00a0 And stop waiting for miracles.\u00a0 Two steps forward and one step back.\u00a0 That\u2019s how it goes.<\/p>\n

So, hang in there and don\u2019t eat the crickets unless you\u2019re related to that GEICO gecko.\u00a0 Have a little pride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
