Is Everything Suddenly Going to Hell?

Is everything going to hell? 

Maybe, maybe not. 

There are lots of reasons to feel bad about everything: The domestic political situation, the domestic – and global – economic picture, foreign affairs and national security, culture. And they’re good reasons, and you should be worried.

But. 

It’s also the case that a lot more people are suddenly noticing how bad things have gotten. You see it on things like immigration, where now “sanctuary cities” are suddenly in favor of building the wall, now that people are actually immigrating to them. You see it in the parental pushback on school closures and trans craziness. You see it in the growing realization that the Biden Administration – and, really, the entire Western governing class – is clueless and inept on foreign policy and national security, and pretty much everything else. And you see it in a growing impatience with the gentry class fixations on race, gender, and climate change while ordinary people struggle to make ends meet.

A few years ago most of our society was sleepwalking toward disaster. Now more and more people are awake and noticing. - READ MORE

The Ministry of Truth Fires Up

It was wholly predictable that protestors would take to the streets to sing the praises of Hamas under the guise of supporting Palestine. We expected the young, ignorant, and indoctrinated, both on and off campuses, to begin a combination victory dance/rally. Of course, as the Squad’s narrative broke down and Biden’s handlers made fools of themselves trying to address the matter, the media showed up, saluted, and reported for duty.

Take the National Review report on the interoffice emails at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that instructed its journalists not to refer to the Hamas members who attacked innocent civilians as “terrorists.”

“Do not refer to militants, soldiers, or anyone else as ‘terrorists. The notion of terrorism remains highly politicized and is part of the story. Even when quoting/clipping a government or a source referring to fighters as ‘terrorists,’ we should add context to ensure the audience understands this opinion, not fact.”

According to the Daily Caller, Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt lit into MSNBC’s early morning propagandist Jonathan Lemire on live TV for the network’s coverage of the attack. In particular, network slugs Ali Velshi’s and Ayman Mohyeldin's attempt to blame the attacks on Israel. Greenblatt point blank asked who was writing MSNBC's script's. Hamas?

And talk about Useful Idiots. Leftist celebrity (?) Adin Ross, who is identified as a “widely recognized Kick streamer,” whatever that is, and has apparently made enough money doing it to have a million dollars to donate to the genocidal killers, and is doing just that. Celebrity influencer Andrew Tate, a former kickboxer, convert to Islam, and misogynist who claims to reject the left primarily for its attack on masculinity, echoes leftist talking points on Israel and likewise is sending $200,000 to the jihadis.

There is no other conflict in the world where people who consider themselves to be decent human beings applaud, and willingly aid and abet, the murder of civilians. What kind of sickness overtakes people that they can see what the “Palestinian” jihadis did to innocent people on Saturday and think, “I’ve got to speak out in support of the attackers,” or even worse, “I’ve got to give those people some money”?

Biden's Entire Presidency In One Picture

As your Beloved Blog Edtrix,who loves each and every one of you, I'm very interested in your thoughts on the recent further descent into chaos we are witnessing.

Like your thoughts on the recent rash of political persecutions and their uncouth prosecutor's near gestapo tactics. Or things like the toxic burning landfill we call the United States Congress and their playgound fistfights, worth of a pair of second year 5th graders. Or maybe thoughts on this semi lucid fool with one foot in the grave who continues to burn piles of taxpayer cash on behalf deadbeat loan borrowers and corrupt foreign countries while importing the entire third world, all while Americans struggle.  Or maybe thoughts on whether Your Beloved Blog Edtrix should win a Nobel for outstanding research on breeding & weaponization of small amphibians for world domination use in difficult land warfare. Or maybe your thoughts on whether it should be a nice Pinot or a Merlot for Saturday's dinner party?

You know the ground rules. The floor is yours.......

I Should Have Listened to the Dog and took a Right Turn at the Red Barn

As a musician, I've played many types of gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper’s cemetery out in the country. As I was not familiar with the area, I got lost.

I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch.

I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn’t know what else to do, so I just sat down and started to play.

The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends. I played like I’ve never played before for this homeless man I had never met.

And as I played ‘Amazing Grace,’ the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. Even the dog. When I finished, I packed up and started for my car. Though my head hung low, my heart was full.

As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, “I ain't never seen nothin’ like that before and I’ve been putting in septic tanks for twenty years.”

Apparently, I’m still lost…
