  1. She's not quite there but getting close. She hasn't fallen for the white guilt nonsense but she hasn't recognized that because she is white she is the target of the left. She best start looking into the white nationalist are advocating.

      Well spoken, though.

    2. Right that the Alt Right and patriotism are really nice things. Certainly in the USA, patriotism really means commitment to the great ideals expressed in the Constitution and also carried out in American History even though it has been done imperfectly.

  2. Fascinating. I have too many thoughts to be able to write down. But she brings up some really thought provoking points. Maybe later as I think about what she said I will be able to write down some comment.

  3. labels. everybody seems to have a label attached to them in accordance with what they believe at the moment. when what one believes changes, does the label change as well? would we be better off without the labels of political identity? can you be functional and effective in the pursuit of your goals without regard to the labels others have attached to you?
    i wish you well.

      All that matters.

  4. My basic feeling is to notice the connections between the New Left and the Old Left of 1848. That is the militant approach to impose the dictatorship of the low class on all others. Also I recall that I would also have been a Leftist if not for learning the Old Testament along with the commentary called the Oral Law. In the Oral Law a great deal of Leftist ideas are opposed. For example the emphasis on good traits, working on improving one's own faults instead of the faults of others, and PRIVATE PROPERTY. The emphasis ought to be on personal transformation, not transforming "society." When one improves himself, then everyone around him also improves.

  5. I can see that self improvement really was a goal of the Boy Scouts and basic education in the USA and Europe and yet education I guess was being turned to leftist propaganda.

      What an unbelievable difference between the 50's and today.
