If only George Orwell could see what we have become. Today I
am writing this article in the midst of a deep state of sadness. I have
to admit, I haven’t been this sad in a very long time. In fact, I don’t
even know if I am going to be able to complete this article. What they
are doing to this country that I love is really starting to get to me
emotionally.
America is supposed to be a beacon of liberty and freedom for the
entire world, but now we are on the cutting edge of the global trend toward
authoritarianism. I know that a lot of people have been leaving the
United States in recent years in an attempt to escape the madness, but at this
point we see authoritarianism on the rise just about everywhere. Just
look at New Zealand. Just look at Australia. Just look at the
Philippines. At one time people were fleeing to those countries, but now
they have become some of the most authoritarian regimes of all.
I feel so frustrated because I feel like I have been banging my
head against a brick wall. Over the past decade, I have written countless
articles warning that we were losing our liberties and our freedoms, and very
large numbers of people all over the globe read those articles.
But did they do any good?
Here are just a few examples of what I am talking about…
–“Thoughts
On The ‘New Normal’ And The Things That We Are Losing As A Society…”
–“Without
Freedom Of Speech, What Is Going To Happen To America?”
–“Less
Government. More Freedom.”
–“12 Signs
That Americans Who Love Liberty And Freedom Should Watch Their Backs”
I warned that this day was coming, and now it is here.
For a while, they were content to whittle away our liberties and
freedoms on the periphery, but now we are facing a full-fledged frontal assault
on our most basic liberties and freedoms.
And what makes it even more frightening is the fact that millions
of completely brain-washed Americans are cheering them on as they do it.
If our founders could see us today, they would be absolutely
horrified at what we have become.
Because I am often so critical of what has happened to us, a lot
of people out there assume that I must hate this country.
But of course that is not true at all. I deeply love
America. I deeply love our history, I deeply love our traditions, and I
deeply love the values that this nation is supposed to represent.
That is why it deeply grieves me that these things are now being
ripped away from us.
We are the generation that is witnessing the end of America.
For whatever period of time the political entity known as “the
United States” is allowed to continue, it won’t be “America” anymore.
Sure, the U.S. Constitution will still be on public display
somewhere, and the politicians will still pay lip service to it. But for
all practical purposes, the dream of what “America” was supposed to be will be
dead.
Sometimes people say that we have too many complainers and not
enough people taking action, but I am one of those people that did try to take
action. I spent nearly an entire year of my life running for office, and
me and my campaign manager traveled thousands upon thousands of miles so that
we could personally talk to as many voters as possible. Everywhere I went
I warned that unless emergency action was taken there wasn’t going to be a
future for America. I begged, I pleaded, I delivered passionate speech
after passionate speech, but in the end it wasn’t good enough.
Ultimately, I was beat by the very definition of a “seat
filler”. The guy who beat me couldn’t be more inactive even if he
suddenly turned into a door handle.
Why can’t we have extremely passionate politicians that have fire
in their bellies?
Just look at what happened today. My father was in the
U.S. Navy, and so to see this happen literally made me sick.
So why aren’t liberty-loving members of Congress speaking up about
this?
Rand Paul has chosen to make a bold
stand.
Where in the world is everyone else?
I am so sick and tired of these “do nothing” politicians.
They are standing aside as our Republic is literally being destroyed.
A lot of people out there still think that the changes that we are
witnessing are just temporary. They think that eventually this pandemic
will fade away and everything will return to “normal” somehow.
But what they don’t realize is that the elite will always find
another excuse to move even further down the road toward authoritarianism.
Two decades ago, it was 9/11.
Then it was “the war on terror”, which has now evolved into “the
war on domestic extremism”.
For the past couple of years, the pandemic has given them the
cover that they needed to greatly accelerate their program.
In 2021, the federal government is working hand in hand with big
corporations and the mainstream media to advance the “Big Brother”
agenda. At this point things have gotten so bad that we can’t even
criticize certain specific points of their agenda anymore because if we do we
will immediately get censored.
For a long time, the Internet allowed ordinary citizens like you
and me to communicate on a mass scale outside of their control.
But now those days are over, because they are clamping down really
hard.
Just like in George Orwell’s novel, they want to control what we
say, what we think, what we believe and what we feel.
Having an independent opinion is “dangerous”, and thinking for
yourself is “dangerous”.
We have literally become a “1984 society”, and most Americans are
just standing by and watching it happen.
And as I have been saying for years, if we stay on our current
course there is
no future for America.
Even Joe Rogan is using the word “dictatorship” to describe the
direction that our country is headed.
Many are putting their heads in the sand and are assuming that our
system will correct itself eventually.
But every single day, things are getting even worse.
If you love liberty, now is the time to stand up and say
something. Time is rapidly running out, and authoritarianism is on the
march.

Apocalypse” is now available in paperback and for the Kindle on Amazon.***
Technology can be dazzling but also debilitating to real human
progress, and when I say "progress" I do not mean advancements in the
world of machines but advancements in the world of people, and one does not
necessarily lead to the other.
First, I fully recognize that whenever anyone attempts to criticize
technological innovation, they take the risk of being labeled a
"crackpot" or an "outdated fossil," a barbaric relic of a
foregone era. However, this attitude is an ignorant one. It assumes that the
path we are on as a species is one of perpetual improvement as long as we
continue to follow the great technology god; but what if this assumption is
completely wrong? What if we are actually devolving rather than evolving?
SIDEBAR
Today's top Gab TV video is part one of a documentary called
"The Total End Of A Free Society," which highlights the journey of 22
year old American political dissident Nicholas J. Fuentes. At just 22
years old Nick has become a Civil Rights Hero of our time and the canary in the
coal mine for where our society is headed. In part one of the documentary we
learn that the feds
seized $500,000 from Nick's bank account after he attended
a political rally to exercise his First Amendment rights as an American
Citizen. As I wrote a
few weeks ago, pay attention to what is happening to both Nick and Gab, because it will inevitably happen to
you too.

President Joe Biden is clashing with one of the largest automotive
manufacturers in the world after declaring a radical plan to mandate electric
cars on struggling Americans.
The problems with such a plan are obvious. First off, most
Americans can’t afford an electric vehicle. On top of that, the infrastructure
needed to support these cars simply isn’t there.
Of course, we don’t expect the White House to listen to reason on
this one.

It's been a hot summer so far not only in Texas
but also in other parts of the country as well.
Rather than rely on fossil fuels or nuclear
energy to cool off your home this summer, why not go off-grid?
These systems are just as effective, yet they
use natural sources of power – not “standard” electricity in order to cool your
home down.
