Unfortunately there are two words standing in the way discovering reality. Apathy and lazy. Far too many people don't have the gumption to raise their faces from the latest social media feed, or are distracted by "beer in the fridge and the game on Saturday". While there is nothing inherently wrong with enjoying life's distractions, they shouldn't become your life. I was raised in the era of the Dewey Decimal System and Microfiche, where research and fact checking took time and significant work. Today that same work can be done in minutes, on the same phone that brings you the game or social media. There is simply no excuse for blindly accepting BS from anyone. Critical thinking! What a concept!

Part of that has to be cancel culture, as in George Orwell’s 1984, the former novel and now instruction manual for the far left, part of the point of all their machinations at punishment was not to convert the ‘transgressor’. But to make an example of someone for everyone else.

I can remember having to look through card catalog files and microfilm. These days we have VPNs, TOR and the internet archive https://archive.org/

Unfortunately, that makes you feel that you need to run down every fact possible.

I am so glad you mentioned the red/blue state swap. I so vividly remember the blue Republican campaign signs up until the major media started using red for conservative states. It was a transparent attempt to make the right look communist. Just like everything they call conservative Constitutional Republicans, they are simply projecting their own identity on others. If you want to know what the left is up to, just look at the accusations they make against their opponents.

I still vividly recall Tom Brokaw commenting late in the evening of the 2000 election that the colors were wrong. The left must have decided that switch, but we shouldn’t have gone along with it.

Some articles have made the point that it used to be that every few years they would reverse the colors in some venues, the fact that they no longer do that speaks volumes.

Everyone has to start looking at which side consistently lies and lies with language.

Which side consistently exploits false labels to foster a false impression in the people?

Everyone has to start looking at which side consistently works to deprive the people of their rights.

Which side consistently exploits crisis to confiscate guns?

Which side consistently exploits crisis to suppress free speech and freedom of the press?

We’re not talking about parents objecting to the fascist far left trying to indoctrinate kindergarteners, we’re talking about real censorship and the real threat of gun confiscation.

Which side is doing all that?

That would be the fascist far left that is still lying about the National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazi) being a Socialist German Workers' Party and leftist.

That would be the side that pretends to be ‘liberal’ - with the same root word as liberty - that is becoming increasingly authoritarian by the day.

That would be the fascist far left.

1. No, it’s not ‘Liberal’ vs Right.

Question: Was Stalin a Liberal?

Was Mao a Liberal?

Was Pol Pot a Liberal?

That should tell you of another of the far left’s lies - the false ‘liberal’ - Conservative paradigm.

As you can see, it doesn’t make any sense, that is what shows you that it’s a lie.

Which side has been lying to you all these years?

Which side keeps on making the nonsensical claim that the fascist far left is ‘liberal’?

What is this ‘what about’ predilection the far left always harps on?

No matter the issue, no matter how bad the fascist far left is doing something, they will always point to some minor example that the pro-freedom right is doing as a distraction.

Okay, so we’ll address that:

Now, if you’ll recall, the lock down was supposed to be for only a few days.

Remember ’15 days to slow the spread’?

Recall that the far left and the nation’s socialist media had a conniption fit when President Trump wanted to open things back up after 15 days. So, they agreed to continue the useless lockdowns.

Free states - Republican states - tried to open things up as soon as possible.

The socialist slave states - ‘Democrat’ states - took full advantage of the lockdowns for as long as possible.

Who lied about the useless vaccines and masks?

Who silenced any dissenting speech about the useless vaccines and masks?

“The reality is that you have to be very careful of anybody in power, regardless of their political persuasion.”

Exactly, that is why governmental power has to be limited. I don’t really trust any of them.

"Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one." " [G]overning has always been monopolized by the most ignorant and the most rascally individuals of mankind."

“Federalist Papers No. 45, James Madison, the Father of the Constitution, wrote: “The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined.”

“Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely” Lord Acton

I wouldn’t even call them the ‘elite,’

Obviously, you don’t have to read any of these articles, but go have a look, at least 1 of them. You might be surprised: https://patelpatriot.substack.com/archive?sort=new
