The Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, Individual Rights, Justice, honor, merit, and rugged individualism are vanquished,  welcome back to the jungle…might is right, the elite rule over the masses, torture, absolute rule, police state are the accepted order of the day.

Translation….the new Dark Ages is upon us.  Diseases once eradicated return. Planned, purposeful Illiteracy and ignorance of history, science, mathematics, geography, philosophy, English, literature are being foisted on pupils and the masses as a whole.

The media and entertainment industries focus on pop culture decadence and have little patience for rationality and much for mindless emotionalism, i.e. pop stars, grief counselors, anger management, diversity, multiculturalism, victimhood, concocted shell-game “terrorism”.

As Ayn Rand succinctly wrote “Art is the barometer of a culture”.  In other words…judge the music,  movies,  paintings, sculpture,  values,  mode of dress, manners, etc. which tell the whole story…compare these with late 1700’s…and you will find no comparison.  Today’s culture is the barbarian and the 1700’s culture displays civility, rationality, and individualism.

When the Cultural Marxists and the international financiers came for us we were not prepared, we were intellectually and physically lazy…hooked on modern conveniences and technology, unable to comprehend the value of neither freedom nor the price.

We’ve been outmaneuvered, outflanked, and conquered by an ideology devoted to our destruction, while we stupidly placed our faith in elected & appointed officials. Scapegoat Islam can’t compete in this arena.

How many to this day understand the philosophical differences between Plato and Aristotle, the collective versus the individual.
