1. Stop me if you heard this one before. There once was a man who used religion to advance his Marxism/communism. He started a church and preached "Apostlic socialism".

2. He used the gospel to fund his socialism. He used racial tensions to further his power.
3. He dreamed of a new socialist Eden/Utopia on Earth.

4. Some believe he created fake/hoax hate crimes to gain sympathy with the community.

5. He was made a director of a human rights commission for a large American city.
6. He preached about the evils of America. He stated that "If you are born in capitalist America, racist America, fascist America, you are born in sin but if you are born in socialism you are not born in sin"
7. His first church was failing so he moved to another American city. In that city he again worked his way into the power circle of the Democrat local government.
8. His subterfuge with religion couldn't withstand for long and he started to openly preach Marxism and call Christianity "a fly away religion" and the Bible "a tool to oppress women and non-whites.
9. His wife admitted to the NYT that he was trying to promote Marxism in the USA via a religion and his inspiration for this was Mao. He stated their is no heaven up there. We'll have to make heaven down here." (The siren call for Marxists for 100+ years)
10. The move to the new city which was a center of resistance was a good move for him. His refounded Marxist "church" gained many followers and influence within the local, state and national political circles. He was given a major appointment as chairmen of housing authority....
11. His influence grew to the point where he met with the governor of the state, a VP candidate who would become the VP as well as the FLOTUS several times. His ideas where embraced in the Dem party.

12. He sought to form a stronger relationship with the nation of Islam.
13. He cultivated relationships with the other like minded people in the press. However, the media wasn't fully socialist yet so some had ethics and tried to point out the sexually, physical, and emotional abuse that was going on within this socialist Utopia.
14. That bad press he got was his main reason he decided he needed to move again and set up shop somewhere else. (It's the curse of Marxists to have to move or change their names often since their Utopia always falls short of the promise.)
15. He moved to his new home in South America. He dubbed it a "socialist paradise" (I guess the name Utopia was out of favor at the time). He modeled it after the other great "socialist paradises" the USSR and Cuba and like them once you checked in you weren't allowed to leave.
16. Like every other "socialist paradise" it began to fail from within as people defected and sought to get others out of the safe space/hell they themselves helped create. The die was cast.
17. In an ironic twist some of the same government forces that had embraced him saw the writting on the wall and quickly turned against him. (Evil always destroys itself, it's the nature of evil) those government members put increasing pressure on him and his followers.
18. Like all socialist's dreams his were increasingly being hit upside the head with a reality 2x4. Also like most socialists, he couldn't admit his entire philosophy was a failure. He sought escape and tried to shift blame. He blamed the Intel agencies.
19. All of his fevered socialist dreams came crashing down as reality finally made it's presence known. This time it was a "fact finding mission" by a us congressman that started reality hammering strongly on the Utopian bubble.
20. Let's just say the visit didn't go well for him nor the congressman. The congressman was killed along with 4 others. And the socialist knew the end was here. Did he repent and ask for forgiveness like a good preacher would? Nope. He acted like the Marxist he was.
21. He gathered his followers mixed a drink of grade flavor-aid in with cyanide and with armed men nearby 909 people drank the mixture, 304 of them children, committing an act of "revolutionary suicide" the way as he put it socialists and communists die with dignity.
22. The phrase "don't drink the kool-aid" became a part of American culture when discussing people believing strange or kooky ideas. Somehow the fact that the strange and kooky ideas were socialism and communism got left out of the saying. 🤔🤔
23. If u haven't guessed by now. The man was Jim Jones, the Utopia was called the People's Temple, the FLOTUS was Rosalynn Carter, the VP was Mondale, the gov/local pols were Jerry brown, wille brown, Harvey milk among others. The 2nd City was San Francisco. 1st was Indianapolis.

I know there has been so much propaganda and attempts to disparage it, but I still believe in free speech. Not just the act of being able to say what you want when you want, but the POWER of free speech. The ability to entertain ideas that are different than the group.
Free speech allows a society to have a vaccine against propaganda. It allows mutations of dangerous speech into a less dangerous idea. It gives an outlet for people who are angry, pissed off, afraid. It exposes hate speech for what it is with no need for some censor to ban it.
It allows new ideas, new thoughts, new protests. It allows a populous to ask for a Redress of their grievances so that they are not required to take up arms to find a compromise. It allows for an informed population that can make more knowledgeable decisions. It speeds up the

When and if truth social becomes available to us, I'll probably move over there but keep this account until they ban me. I joined Twitter a couple years back to see Trump's tweets without the filter of the MSM, but all I got here is more censorship.
I'm not real big on social media in general. Twit is the only one I engage in to any degree and mostly it's to get information and have discussion. Since twit has decided to limit the info I can get, it's only because of those that follow me that I keep coming back.
I do enjoy interacting with all of you, I always say I have the best group of followers on twit. It rare in this day and age that people can have polite conversations even when we disagree, but the vast majority of the people in my timeline do this regularly.

I don't know many things. I'm not ashamed to admit it. I also know many things. I'm not ashamed to admit it. I'm confident that what I know is true, yet intelligent enough to understand maybe some of it isn't. However, not knowing is not a reason to be paralyzed into inaction.
You have one life to live in this world. You can do whatever you want with it, maybe. It's known that there are people out there that like nothing better than to try to take your life & make it their own by telling you how to live it. You can of course follow their wishes/orders.
You can also tell them to go fuck themselves. Of course telling these people is not enough because they will still think and act as if they own you. At that point you have to make some type of decision. Do you submit and follow along? Do you withdrawal and hope they ignore you?

Society in every state is a blessing, but government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one; for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries by a government, which we might expect in a country without government,
...our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer. Government, like dress, is the badge of lost innocence; the palaces of kings are built on the ruins of the bowers of paradise. For were the impulses of conscience clear, uniform, and
...irresistibly obeyed, man would need no other lawgiver; but that not being the case, he finds it necessary to surrender up a part of his property to furnish means for the protection of the rest; and this he is induced to do by the same prudence which in every other case advises

So, not sure if I had covid, think I did. Had all the symptoms but well I don't know for sure. Still it's been about 3 weeks. I wouldn't call The bug I had mild. I hate to get sick. First week was the worse. Fever, chills, sore throat, headache from hell, weak, wasn't hungry
....muscle aches. You know the typical stuff you get from a flu or a cold. The last two weeks had sinus trouble and unproductive cough, couldn't sleep much because of both. Just couldn't get comfortable, sore throat was the worst though. Trouble swallowing and drinking.
Taste buds rebelled, they are still on strike, but today I felt almost 99% normal. The bug seems to come and go in waves. Some days over the last 3 weeks I felt fine. Not 100% but good enough then I'll wake up and be miserable the next day. Strange bug.

Leftists are not capitalists.

I say this simple truth over and over, but for some reason many people don't get it. They don't believe it. They can't wrap their heads around it. They just will not see. Not sure how to explain it any easier. Leftists are not capitalists.
Sure, they may live with, use, and enjoy the trappings of capitalism. They may enjoy having plentiful food, nice homes, indoor plumbing, energy on tap, cellphones, the internet, streaming movies channels, social media platforms, etc etc etc
But see here is the thing. Well, a couple of things. One, they don't really believe deep down in their souls that most of those things they have are due to capitalism. Most think they can have all of those things without capitalism and to a certain degree they are right.
