There is so much hate and cynicism in the world today. People are backing out and staying out of politics and anything to do with controversy. In this sickly pathetic society, people call what is wrong right and what is right wrong. You no longer can talk the way you used to. You cannot speak your mind. People today are so wrapped up in their own lives they rarely have time for others. Jokes are now scrutinized and people have lost their sense of humor.
There is every new type of gender one could imagine. I never knew that there are new names for men and women who are no longer men or women. Binary and non-binary people. What is that? That question is rhetorical so please do not answer it because I have not defined it here and this was done purposely. Too many things we once as a people and society held sacred like prayer in school, honoring your parents, going to church, and loving God is a metaphor for bygone days. We are told we have evolved and progressed and that the past is literally draconian and ignorant of the truth. People even do not question who’s truth, because now it is your truth.
We have progressives, which is a fancy word for liberals. We have woke, and at this point, it does not matter what woke is because it has all gone too far. Black Lives Matter and their lies along with Critical Race Theory and white privilege. It is all lunacy and dung.
An election was rigged so that Biden would win the presidency and Americans are not outraged? What is wrong? We have not lost our voice we have given it away. Do you know why many believe that we are the silent majority? Why are we silent? Doesn’t anyone believe we can affect change? Sometimes we never see the change in our lifetime, but what we choose or choose not to do today will affect our children, grandchildren, and future generations of Americans to come.
I say to you to find your platform. Stand for what you believe in and do not waffle or be scared of what others will think or say. If you have a YouTube channel use it to get your message to the people to unite and be one America under God. If you have a blog do not give up because it’s not famous or does not receive enough hits or you think no one is reading. Write and believe me people will read. You do not know who is listening or who is reading and that is the point. You will have what you say. You will attract those that otherwise would have never paid attention to what you have to say. You change the fabric of the times and go against the establishment’s wrongdoings. If you have a voice make it heard and be sure people listen. Stop being silent in this upside-down world. Stop being silent because it makes you just as guilty and wrong as the people perpetrating the wrongs. Do not let the liberal progressives and the AOCs of this world win. We are the generation that said we knew better so let us do better.
Do not give up, do not grow tired and weary, keep pushing forward, and believe that you are important and what you say matters — matters to some, perhaps not all, but to some and it is that some that will affect change in our nation. Be the loud majority. Never stop speaking up and out. Someone is listening even in this upside-down world, I promise you that.

Americans can still speak their minds. Racists, white nationalists, and conspiracy theorists have been in full swing….seemingly quite emboldened of late. Speaking of the latter…Americans by and large, are not outraged by the election, because it wasn’t rigged. The farcical and patently absurd claims have fallen flat again, and again, and…you get the idea.
And multiple genders are a garbage theory. I care nothing for how someone desires to ‘identify’…it doesn’t change biology.
And you’re correct. People should speak out if they so desire, on whatever platform they choose. It exposes more innovative ideas for trying to rehabilitate society and domestic policy and exposes those who should be roundly mocked and derided.

I’m not suggesting that there aren’t any problems in U.S. elections; I’m only saying that our states, being sovereign, are responsible for establishing their own constitutionally appropriate election systems. It is up to the people of those states to insist that their state’s elections are conducted properly, which means that the citizens of those states have confidence that their vote does count. Pulling back the curtain, it would appear that we’ll find most of the crooks embedded in county elections commissions, which makes sense because this is where the crooks can do the most damage — and they know, it is the place least likely to call attention to shenanigans. I’d guess that as many people could name their county election supervisor as could name the judges who sit on the district court bench. Approaching nil. It’s actually amazing to me that so many people hate their congressman but the guy or gal keeps getting reelected election cycle after election cycle.

Exactly. People are so lazy. People prefer to let the news media fake or not do all the work and then they believe it hook line and sinker. I compare it to preachers and priests …they teach Biblical principles and morals, but one should never take their word as authority. Read the Bible for yourself and fact check them. Everyone relies on others to do the work for them and when it implodes they are stupid and ask, “but why?” Well the answer is you did not do your own fact checking not only of whom you vote for, but fact check the media you listen to. They all lie and spin as far as I am concerned.
