While waiting for the 24/7 coverage of the football rebellion of 2017 to be pushed off the front page by the next hysterical nugget of information to take its place, I've been reading more about how we're being subverted into Socialism/Communism.
This months Whistleblower has some excellent articles on how cultural Marxism has been making headway into our country. Granted, nothing I read is not something I haven't read a hundred times before, but it's always good to remind one's self of how these events interconnect.
How many times have you heard the game of football called an American institution or tradition?
If the goal of Socialism is to take over a country by changing it's culture (cultural Marxism), then an attack on football would certainly push along the agenda. No?
Did the cultural Marxists plan out this scenario we're having forced down our throats of football players being manipulated into the role of useful idiots ? Probably not. But it has certainly followed their play book by landing a heaping pile of poo on the field of foot-a-ball (as my Italian grandpa called it)- and the MSM is going to make sure that you stay involved, agitated, and distracted.
And the question that dangles it's pesky little head over this whole distraction is why?
Francis Porretto, over at Liberty's Torch, asked that question and his answer is splendid.
Starting with the question:
A bald reading of 1984 suggests that Orwell’s major aim was to depict the horrors of an all-encompassing totalitarian state: a state whose masters will be satisfied with nothing less than controlling the thoughts in its subjects’ heads. There’s an obvious utilitarian reason for the power-mad to want such control: it precludes all possibility of rebellion. If it were possible – and I shan’t suggest that it absolutely isn’t – it would be the ultimate totalitarian wet dream. But how would a relatively free society get to IngSoc, The Party, the ubiquitous telescreens, et cetera? Did Orwell have a sociopolitical path in mind?

So How Do You Fight Back?
Everyone must do what they are able to do. It's really that simple.
Reject the dark ugliness of Communism. Celebrate beauty - real beauty. Read uplifting books, surround yourself with beautiful art, study history and, if you have children, teach them to reject the false lies of the left.
Withdraw from the useless squawking of the MSM and go out in nature. Spend time enriching your own life and the lives of your children.
Pray.
Yesterday I went out for a late lunch and when I returned home I binge watched the Masterpiece Theater's Victoria. It was a healthy dose of quite accurate history wrapped up in a sumptuous package of wonderful acting, beautiful settings, lovely clothes, and the love story of Victoria and Albert. It takes you through to the birth of their first child.
It's clear, witnessing the struggles of the elite political class and the royals in Great Britain during the Victorian era, that the quest for power has touched man ever since the Angel of Darkness convinced Adam and Eve that they could be gods.
