Trotsky’s permanent revolution from hell in America [from Renew America]: Paganism, Part 43
Soulless Marxist revolutionary politics together with its brutal ideology and dehumanizing Darwinian system is indeed evil, and since the end of WW II has been stealthily working its evil right here in America. Today, brazen suggestions are made by Leftists and their evil-minded cohort within academia, Hollywood, and mass media that white people are systemic racists and conservatives and Christians are mentally ill. Likewise, and just as happened in Russia, America’s revolutionary controlled Detdoma (schools) are churning out monsters. How is it that so many Americans cannot see this evil even when it twists and perverts their own children into hating their parents, hating God, and their own country? Or when our Detdoma churns out sociopaths, sex predators, and murderers such as the Columbine killers? It is as if millions of American’s are sleep walking to their doom. Wake up, Americans! Trotsky’s Permanent Revolution from hell is nearly complete

“You know, nobody ever intended that governors would be sort of czars or dictators in charge of the economy,” Paul said. “In my state, you can’t have indoor dining, you can’t have outdoor dining, and your kids are not in school. We’re worse than New York City right now. In Kentucky, our governor has shut the schools down even though all of the science shows that—and all of the evidence—that you really aren’t having a surge when you have the schools open,” he added.
The Democrats Are the Party of China: Epoch Times
The Democrats have been the party of this China for some time, even before the Obama administration when the relationship rose to a new level…The endless talk of Trump–Russia collusion that began at the end of that administration and went on for three years, that anybody paying attention knew was fallacious from the start, was as an attempt to derail President Donald Trump but also served as an ongoing and, at least partly, deliberate distraction from the real issue at the crux of global politics.
Why Is COVID-19 Pandemic So Hard on Young People? Epoch Times, Mind & Body Weekly
During the pandemic, I had my last semester of college partially online, then searched for jobs in a struggling economy, all from the comfort and isolation of my childhood home… Many of my peers have had similar challenges, and others have been cut off from loved ones, laid off, or watched a family member suffer from COVID-19…Young parents are contending with child care and work at the same time, while the elderly are more isolated than ever.
