Deprogramming From the ‘Woke’ Cult: Former Social Justice Warrior Overcomes Fear to Speak Up – Epoch Times

Today, Smith fosters conversations with guests on her YouTube channel, “Deprogrammed with Keri Smith,” to examine and unpack the SJW belief system and its permeation into all spheres of power and influence, including pop culture. “I want to understand the belief system better for myself, to untangle all of it,” she said. “What did I believe about it that was true? What did I believe about it that was false?” Approaching the topic from all angles, Smith interviews a range of people, including comedians, artists, academic scholars, and authors, as well as others like her who have abandoned their wokeist ideologies. Smith said she first encountered social-justice theories in the late ’90s when she was a biological anthropology and anatomy major, with a minor in women’s studies, at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, when most people hadn’t heard of critical race theory.

Why Are Most People Cowards? Obedience And The Rise Of Authoritarianism – Academy Of Ideas

The 12-minute video in this post clearly explains a major problem in America, the struggle between those who conform to social Marxism (subscribing to the political left, bowing to political correctness, blindly accepting their propaganda as truth…) and those who are not conforming. I have been writing about this problem but have not been able to put it in terms that this video uses; it clearly presents the matter and provides a solution.
After listening to the video, you will recognize that the solution is emerging at great cost to those involved; hopefully, more will take up the cause after it is clarified for them.

We Must Follow Christ, Not Ceasar – John MacArthur

This post contains a 5-minute video wherein Pastor John MacArthur explains that Christians must listen to God, not godless totalitarian government when it comes to whether or not the church closes its doors, and whatever else that is under the authority of God, per God. In other words, those Christians who shut the doors of their church at the direction of the state during the pandemic… are wrong and have disobeyed God….

The Subordinate Citizen [You] – Epoch Times Commentary

I recently led a group of about 100 citizens to tour Israel for nearly two weeks. Before returning to the United States, all participants had to indicate their vaccination status and take a COVID-19 test for reentry. Anxieties swept the group as Israeli testers swabbed them. Anyone testing positive would have to delay his or her return. That quarantine would entail spending thousands of dollars in finding scarce hotel accommodations, additional living expenses, and rebooked airline tickets—depending upon the length of the mandatory sequestration. Contrast the tens of thousands of foreign nationals now mustering to cross illegally into the United States again this summer. They follow the already 2 million who have entered the country unlawfully since Joe Biden became president. …Or do we scrutinize far more carefully U.S. citizens entering legally their own country than we do noncitizens crossing our borders unlawfully?

Mass Shooters’ Ties With National Bolshevism Should Be Investigated, Not Ignored: Trevor Loudon – Epoch Times

Nazism was always regarded as a left-wing phenomenon until the end of World War II, Loudon said. A lot of communists joined the Nazi Party and communism, and Nazism were considered two different elements of the left, he added. Stalin was the first one who called Nazis the right-wing, after he defeated Germany, “because then he could lay that label to conservatives and anti-communists,” Loudon said. One of the ideological leaders of national Bolshevism is Alexander Dugin, a Russian philosopher who was an adviser to Vladimir Putin for some time. National Bolsheviks look at Russia as the “savior” of the “white socialist world,” …Some mass shooters are portrayed by the many media as motivated by far-right ideology. “These guys are not American right-wingers. … they explicitly hate America, they want to see a worldwide socialist fascist system.”

Father Of Parkland Victim Encourages Gun Owners to Head to Their Local Range – Guns America Digest

There’s a growing chorus for strict gun control following the tragic murders in Buffalo, New York, and Uvalde, Texas, where deranged individuals took the lives of innocent Americans. Ryan Petty isn’t among them, though some might expect him to be. Petty’s 14-year-old daughter Alaina was murdered in the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School tragedy. Instead of blaming gun owners that follow the law, he’s inviting them and others with a call-to-action of his own: Go to the range, practice and show your support for the Second Amendment.

Soros Spent $40 Million to Elect 75 ‘Social Justice’ Prosecutors – American Faith

Sky-high campaign donations from liberal anti-police billionaire George Soros and his groups have helped to elect 75 “social justice” prosecutors in whose cities jailings have plummeted and crime has surged, according to a new report provided to Secrets. In a 17-page report compiled by the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund, a decade of spending has put Soros prosecutors in enough big cities that they represent 1 in 5 people, or about 72 million. [17-page pdf accompanies this post, it explains Soros strategies for electing progressive leftists in American communities.]

PM Says Giving Guns to NZ Businesses ‘Not the Answer,’ As Crimewave Grips the Country – Epoch Times

“A sense of lawlessness is now gripping all of New Zealand, and the soft on crime approach is not working,” he told News hub. “We are calling the prime minister to declare a crime emergency in New Zealand. It is that serious.” Kaushal said many small businesses were hiring their own security, with many going to him for advice on how to get a gun. “It’s become that serious because if the police and authorities are not able to save them, they have to save themselves,” he said…. Mitchell said the announcement had been “too little, too late” in addressing the “explosion” of youth crime in New Zealand.
“Until this Labour government cracks down on crime, youth offenders, gang members, and organised crime groups will continue to behave and act with impunity,” he said

South Dakota Governor Ready to Sue Biden for School Lunch Policy Tie to Transgender Issues – Epoch Times

The Department of Agriculture (USDA) under the Biden administration announced on May 5 that all state and local agencies that receive federal funding for meals, more specifically including schools, must not discriminate based on sexual orientation and gender identity. In other words, schools that receive funding through the federal school lunch program could lose the funding if they discriminate against those identifying as a different gender or sexual orientation, such as not allowing biological males who identify as females to use women’s restrooms…. Noem blasted the Biden administration’s threat of withholding funding from vulnerable student populations in a press release on June 2: “President Biden is holding lunch money for poor Americans hostage in pursuit of his radical agenda.
