The Injections you haven’t felt…yet
Daily across our nation and, to a large extent, around the world, millions of us are receiving injections without realizing it. Not medical injections, but rather, philosophical ones.
An intentional barrage of comments, adjectives, restatements, rule changes and other pinpricks are being peppered throughout society in a low frequency manner. This process has been proven to work throughout history. It’s known as indoctrination. What makes it effective is that each instance is so minimal that it seems harmless. Taken one at a time that may be true, but collectively these injections are ultimately fatal.
Here’s the process:

Take something that is so well established that you don’t have any hope of challenging it. Then instead of a head-on assault, you build an adjacent argument or concept that seems to agree with it. You build consensus and support for your position and then you show the problem with the well established concept. For example: Religion, specifically the Christian religion in America.
American is a Judeo-Christian country. Our Founding Fathers openly proclaimed faith in God and the Bible. They even said in our founding documents that this society, a Republic rooted in individual freedom and individual responsibility, was entirely unsuited for people who didn’t believe in a benevolent loving Creator. The reason is that Christianity, apart from other world religions, provides for a direct personal relationship with God. It has a simple set of rules, the Ten Commandments, and through Jesus’ sacrifice and resurrection, it provides for the forgiveness of sins. Other religions pretty much convict you of sins and their God is one of judgment, atonement and vengeance. An angry god with many rituals and rules.
Be A Better Person
In a society based on Christianity people seek to become better. Not just more skilled or knowledgeable, but better as a person. We go to church to learn to live a good life and to thank and praise God for our blessings and abilities. In America we have always celebrated Christmas, Easter, Passover, and our faith. Public places display the Ten Commandments, including schools and legislatures. Public buildings and our currency are engraved with “In God We Trust.” People who pray together become bonded as a family is bonded. We call each other “brother” and “sister.” In the Catholic Church they even call the priest “father.” Church is essential to our culture, and not just for religion.
Our culture is one American culture, not a mix of other distinct cultures. “E Pluribus Unum” our motto, means “Out of many, One.” In other words, when you become a citizen you give up your earlier allegiance. Your new allegiance is to America. “I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, One nation, under God, indivisible (remember that word), with liberty and justice for all.”
If you are going against something as substantial as Christianity in America you had better have a great plan. You have to make your challenger “divisible”. Divide and conquer is the idea. Don’t attack the main body, attack its smaller parts.
Here’s the plan we are experiencing today. Remember, no direct challenges, just build a case for the variations that tempt people onto your path.
Here is the sinister plan
- Convince people that the compassionate thing to do rather than expressing your faith is to consider the feelings of others who have a different faith from yours. In other words, do this because it is what good people would do.
- Give them an easy way to speak about this variant position. Call it “honoring diversity” and “respecting all faiths.” Make it noble to do.
- Create new words to describe the “sin” you are seeking to avoid. Call it “disenfranchisement.”
- Challenge the foundation of what makes us America. Accuse the Founders of racism, slavery, deism, and infidelity. Don’t attack their ideas like the Constitution or Bill of Rights, instead just make them seem like flawed people.
- Question the relevance of ancient ideas. Say that those people couldn’t have known the world we live in today, therefore their ideas need to be reconsidered. That allows you to weaken the Constitution, the branches of government, the celebration of Christian holidays, the privileges granted to churches, the decisions made by earlier courts and laws that were passed in prior years.
- Infiltrate the schools at all levels. Get the children to accept new restrictions on what they can say or do, but don’t restrict them from anything you want to gain acceptance for, say homosexuality as a mainstream life choice, rather than simply the sexual orientation of 3% of people.
- Introduce new curricula that sell your concepts to students. Get them to be very concerned about things they can’t do anything about, like the climate.
- Assure that the movies, TV shows and entertainment of all types are on your side, they can make your way become the popular one.
- Make it more “sinful” to cause someone else to be uncomfortable than it is to lie, steal, loot or harm others. But at the same time make “bullying” out to be the biggest threat to youth in the country. This sets you up to censure and isolate any opponents who exhibit aggressive behavior.
- Create another adversary that cannot be defeated. “Micro-agression” is a concept that allows you to stain your opponents with “sins” that they aren’t even aware they have committed. Then double down and say that everything is to blame, “Systemic Racism”. Make it so large that it cannot be corrected except through the destruction and replacement of everything we know of as America.
- Isolate your main opponents and stain them with an unsolvable problem. “White privilege” is something that is born into you and built into society so much that all you can do is apologize, pay reparations for sins you did not commit, and agree to new rules that make you the oppressed for a change.
- Warp an obscure part of the trusted documents into a meaning that advances your cause. “Separation of church and state” has been re-interpreted to mean that nothing public can be allowed to mention religion, at least not Christianity. The original meaning was that the state would not be allowed to limit the expression and practice of religion, as it had been in Europe and England before America was founded.
- Once you get all these things in place then you can be bold and audacious about your acts. Find any excuse to protest loudly and if possible, violently as long as it weakens your opponent.
- Take away the ability for your opponents to fight back. Defund the police or enlist them. Make them seem to be dangerous and irredeemable. If they make a mistake or commit a sin, amplify it to seem like a national corruption scandal. Form violent protests in as many places as possible. Print and distribute signs, create catchy slogans, spread the word and enlist the helpless or weaker communities. Convince them you are their savior and will protect them from the evil police.
- Create martyrs. George Floyd was a nine time convicted felon and pretty much a low life. He was once on Judge Judy in court and admitted forcibly taking a woman’s car. He said it wasn’t his fault he was arrested and wrecked her car. The police shouldn’t have tried to stop him. His father sat near him in shame. Since Floyd died at the hands of a cop, he was a perfect martyr. Now they’ve named a plaza for him. US Congress held a kneeling ceremony for him. Legislation has been passed in his name, etc. Recently there have been other potential martyrs, but upon learning that they were white, the protestors cancelled their protests.
- Start introducing the most audacious and outrageous things into schools that you can imagine. Outlaw standard texts and favorite authors and common practices by accusing them of micro aggression, systemic racism, implied bias, etc. Get away from the familiar and loved things as much as possible. Note: Rules for Radicals, Saul Alinsky’s book for a leftist revolution, is dedicated to Lucifer (Satan). Yet it is widely offered in US public schools today.
- If you have a big opponent, create hatred for him or her with all the excerpted quotes or misstatements you can muster. The mainstream press did a masterful job of making Trump the most hated man in America despite 78 million who voted for him. Nobody voted FOR Joe Biden, they simply voted AGAINST Donald Trump.
- Once you get your adversary to be hated, go after anyone who agrees with him. Call them a Trump Supporter as if it is a stain of sin.
- Put your candidate in office and on day one ERASE every vestige of your predecessors. Executive Orders removed or cancelled most everything Trump did for our society and economy. On day two, put forward the most outrageous spending plans and rule changes you can dream of. Now’s your moment, society is at a tipping point and bold actions can shove it over the cliff.
Folks, we’ve been infected by Leftism for a long time but it has metastasized lately and we are in Stage Four infection. America is in serious danger of collapse from internal tensions, economic overload, weakened defenses, non stop invasion, cultivated uncertainty and disdain among our youth, disrespect for law enforcement, disrespect for religion, fears of judgement and accusations of racism, distrust of all other humans due to the Covid phobia (not the disease, but the fear of it), and the wearing down of our ability to fight back against adversaries both foreign and domestic (our own government).
It’s what you say that discloses your thoughts
Political correctness started as an innocuous way of being more courteous. It has metastasized into a form of thought control and a way of limiting people’s ability to organize and gain cooperation.
We are at war internally but not a war with rifles. It’s a war of ideas, rules, expectations, social media edits, cancel culture, educational corruption, and the lowering of personal, public and political standards toward decadence, disgrace and destruction. When it is OK to publicly celebrate sexual intercourse and perform as if in a porn club e.g. WAP (by Cardi B) at the Grammys, but it is not OK to use the “N” word even in reference, unless your skin is dark, then we have gone beyond the pale. Gomorrah is probably a new name we might see recommended to replace America, unless we stand up to all of this indoctrination in daily life and in public forums. Speak up! Be heard, be seen, stand up for what you believe.
I’m a white Christian, heterosexual, veteran, patriotic, 50 year married, proud father and husband, and a Conservative. I believe in God and in the United States Constitution. I believe children should be taught how to become self-reliant good people…in that order. If you can’t take care of yourself then you’ll always be dependent on someone else. When you have your own house in order you can be helpful and generous to others. Can I get an Amen?

My Woke Local Library in Woke America
At the rate of new woke holidays, the whole year will eventually fill up
American Thinker: I took time out during a weekday, two weeks ago, to visit my local library for the first time in many months. I know they’ve already changed the name. It used to be called the “Cameron Village Regional Library,” but apparently Cameron was a very bad man, a long time ago.
The name change, however, came because owners of the shopping center, which was built on land owned by people who had held slaves, chose to drop its connection to the contemporary Cameron family. Hmmm, I wonder how many properties, owned by people who had held once slaves, the shopping center owners have lived on.
Ultimately, the Wake County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to rename the library to the “Oberlin Regional Library.” Is that not a heartwarming move?

Change Happens
As I stroll around the library, I notice numerous changes. There are many more large-print books. The youth section is larger as well and offers a variety of woke titles which, in some instances, would alarm even the most liberal of parents. Every other book is about “brown girl” or “the boy who feels like a girl inside.”
In perusing the audiobook shelves, I see that it is a fraction of what it used to be. Most everyone has switched to downloads. The physical CDs, the kind I like to pop into my car player, are becoming rare, but isn’t it safer to insert one into the CD player than to fiddle with one’s cellphone to air a podcast?
At the librarian’s desk, I see all manner of flyers and announcements. One flyer stands out in particular. It is a page which lists all library activities for the coming month. This list interests me because one never knows — there might be a visiting author or some type of how-to program that is worthwhile to me.
Closed in Observation
The middle of this sheet says: “The library will be closed on June 19 in observance of Juneteenth.” Juneteenth, bad grammar and all, is a federal holiday since 2021, commemorating “the emancipation of enslaved African Americans.” Wait a second, the Emancipation Proclamation occurred on January 1, 1863. Did I miss something? The library will be partially open on July 4. Is that now a lesser holiday?
Juneteenth is acknowledged on the anniversary of the order by a Major General Gordon Granger proclaiming freedom for enslaved people in Texas on June 19, 1865. So, now we ignore the Emancipation Proclamation? One keen social observer commented that the left still thinks of minorities, especially black people, as their pets who they like to spoil with little baubles like Juneteenth.
Real equality is out of the question. To let people rise of fall on their own merits? Well those poor folks would never find their way without the largess of tax payers. And that’s the ploy to keep them “in their place.” Simply vote Democrat and eventually you’ll be just fine. In the meantime, enjoy all the great gifts. And don’t forget to vote.
Perpetual Baubles
What about Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, celebrated on the third Monday in January? It is now a federal holiday. Lincoln’s and Washington’s birthdays in mid-February used to be known by every school-aged kid as I was growing up. These birthdays have now been homogenized and combined, and called Presidents Day, with not even 1 in 10 Americans knowing what that relates to.
Malcolm X said: “The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man who runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked, or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems.”
“I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.”
Dedicated Months
We have a whole month devoted to black history, each and every day in February. Depending on where you turn, you’ll gain news and information about black authors, politicians, poets, cooks, freedom fighters, soldiers, actors, inventors, and pioneers of industry.
The consequence of note of all these holidays is that government employees receive yet another paid day off without having to bargain for it. Nearly everybody else, who actually work for a living, still go to work on those days. Few people care about the holiday except for those seeking to conjure up the next one.
Still, perhaps we ought to have Black History Month for a few more years but, eventually, it needs to fade and simply be part of American history. Otherwise, are we also going to have a Hispanic history month, Jewish month, Asian month, Muslim month, and so on? Are not all the historical experiences, and contributions, by all these groups simply a part of American history?
Years ago, when I lived in D.C., one of the morning radio shock jocks made an inexcusable joke for which he should have been fired but he was not. This was long before the wokesters took over the media and he knew what the boundaries were. In observation of Martin Luther King’s birthday, he said, it’s too bad four more civil rights leaders weren’t slain so that we could have a whole week off. A terrible statement by any means, but he thought it was funny.
Fill Up the Year!
The odd thing is, at the rate of new woke holidays, it wouldn’t be surprising if the whole year was eventually filled up. Every group that has ever been aggrieved in one way or another, at any time, gets a holiday or a week, or why not a month?
So let’s have a short people’s day, a stutterer’s day, a nearsighted people’s day, and on and on, until every single person in America is covered (except, of course, white males, Christians, and Jews). Let’s devote a whole month to those who have a different sexual outlook, inclination, or orientation than everyone else. Let’s hold it in, say, June. Let’s call it “Pride Month.” What do you think of that?

Youth Under Assault
The Left corrupts and thwart today’s youth from cradle to high school, and from college to young adulthood
American Thinker — The Biden administration aims to make America a third-rate nation. In 28 months, our corrupt, doddering, feeble “leader,” a puppet to Barack Obama and other leftists, has initiated legions of programs and policies to decimate our nation.
Atop the list is dislodging the American family as the primary social unit. The Biden administration seeks to keep wealth redistribution schemes and welfare sufficiently attractive to disincentivize marriage and on-the-scene fathers.
While They’re Young
The leftist agenda for destroying America though its children is multifaceted:
Trending on PolitiCrossing.com: Your Days Do Not Have to Race By
- Confuse children at a very early age. Convince them that they were born as the wrong gender and need to use surgery to make themselves look like members of the opposite sex.
- Concurrently, make it difficult for parents to even know what is occurring.
- Infuse the schools with teachers who preach transgenderism, sexuality, crossdressing, and a variety of other such behaviors. Indoctrinate children each day.
- De-emphasize reading, writing, and arithmetic. Focus on equity, feeling good about yourself, disparaging the U.S., and denigrating White people.
- Discourage children from being proud Americans.
- Schedule drag queen story hour so that children are exposed to men who mock women and prance around as if it’s commendable behavior.
- Intimidate teachers. Make them fear using the wrong pronouns and being fired even after twenty years of dedicated service.
- Convert children into little fascists, ready to report on any adult, including their own parents, who “step out of line.”
Fractured History
- Support the 1619 Project, which asserts that American history begins with the introduction of slaves. Never mind that tens of thousands of people lived here before slavery flourished in the South and that millions of people afterward had nothing to do with the slave trade.
- Magnify America’s role in the global slave trade. Ignore that of 10,700,000 slaves who withstood the horrific Atlantic crossing, 388,000 (3.6%) disembarked in America.
- Overlook that while Denmark was the first nation to abolish slave trade shipping in 1803, Britain and the United States followed four years later. Downplay that America fought a four-year Civil War, where 600,000+ troops, 360,000 of them for the Union, died, with millions more suffering life-altering casualties.
- Censor the fact that since Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society, the U.S. has spent $21+ trillion on affirmative action, equal opportunity, welfare, and other transfer payments — a staggering sum equal to $500,000+ per black person, for every year anyone was alive from 1965 to the present.
- Don’t teach America’s role in World War I or World War II, and how we defeated the Nazis, vanquished fascism, and won the 44-year Cold War against an evil empire, the Soviet Union.
Un-level the Playing Field
- Ensure that the average U.S. student lacks the academic skills to compete with immigrants from China, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, India, Japan, and Vietnam, whose per family income exceeds that of American Whites within one generation.
- Overwhelm school systems by allowing torrents of illegal aliens to overpopulate small towns, while draining municipal budgets, health care facilities, first responder departments, and all else that supports a healthy community.
- Install a buffoon, Miguel Cardona, as secretary of education to promote a transgender invasion of women’s sports. Make sure that females face grossly unfair competition. If they protest, shun, bar, or cancel them.
- Support unions and school boards that target parents who wish to safeguard the education of their children. Label these parents as enemies of the state. Install a corrupt, demented attorney general, Merrick Garland, who regards concerned parents as domestic terrorists.
Toss Out Merit
- Dumb down testing. Do away with letter grades where possible. Throw out the SAT and GRE to benefit those who cannot academically compete. Remove the written essay as a college entrance requirement.
- Promote and eventually graduate those students who can barely read even after twelve years of school. Then claim that school systems are racist. Later, when these academic laggards can’t compete in the economy, blame White society for these ills.
- Encourage the underemployed to join Black Lives Matter and Antifa. Pay them to be vocal and violent at events where no protests would otherwise occur. Ensure that no one spends more than a night in jail, regardless of the crime, before he’s bailed out and exonerated by lawless, George Soros-funded district attorneys and dishonest prosecutors.
The Prescription
So there you go. Corrupt and thwart today’s youth from cradle to high school, and from college to young adulthood. This is the prescription for a doomed generation, courtesy of the twisted policies and programs of the Biden administration.
