Progressives have been duped! They have been had! The counterfeit, begun in the garden, is in full swing now. It commands the heights! It has been a well devised scheme, a cookbook, a recipe book so to speak. To serve man – was anything but serving man, it was to have man as lunch, as in the old Twilight Zone episode. That is what our progressive leaders, bureaucrats, influencers, and adherents have swallowed hook, line, and sinker. They have turned their back on the godly principles that shaped this nation and have embraced the counterfeit doctrines of the enemy of our souls.

The long march through the institutions was accelerated by the radical leftists of the 60’s who bullied, cajoled, and shouted down young, immature college students to take to the streets in violent protest, and to take over buildings on campus in retaliation for perceived injustices. Using these types of tactics, progressives have been quite successful in the ensuing years, since now they either possess or hold sway over large swathes of academia, media, government, K-12 schooling, and much more.

We found out just how extensive their success was during the lockdowns, when we were shocked to realize what was being taught in our schools. And guess what, they are still doing it – bullying that is. That tactic is on full display regularly on campuses and in public settings across the nation.

Shutting down opposing views is the only way they can achieve success, since in a frank, fair and open discussion of policy where the hearers clearly understand their intention, they would almost always lose. However, when you control the narrative and there are no checks and balances, as there would be through honest journalism, the monolithic monstrosity continues to grow unabated. To me, rampant sin aside, the greatest threat to America today is just that, a complicit media. If only larger sections of it were balanced and truth-seeking, we would find ourselves in a much more positive environment.

But I digress; my point is this: These progressives have been grossly misled in embracing failed policies of the past, which will only result in suffering for the majority of people, while elevating to dizzying status the few. Do they really think that re-packaged Marxist ideals are what is best for America? I do not think they care at all whether they are or not. It is not about any sense of altruism at all. They care only about power and the continuous consolidation of it over you, over me, over everyone.

Right now, their focus is division; sowing fear, chaos, and confusion amongst us. They relish pitting the various ethnic groups of America, (which we used to proudly say was evidence of E Pluribus Unum), against each other in a never ending, never satisfied hunger for increased strife and resentment. To what end? When will this vociferous hunger be satisfied? What does it look like?

Take the currently discussed scheme of reparations: Let us just assume a large amount is handed over. What then? Peace and tranquility? Do we then all get to sing kumbaya with our taxpayer-funded brothers and sisters? Do the former race hustlers find a new line of work? Does the president stop saying we are a nation of white supremacists? Do teachers stop teaching that white Americans are oppressors and minorities are the oppressed to this day? (Note to the reader – check world history and the curse of slavery throughout the ages. Research how prevalent it was throughout the world, paying close attention to what nations were the first to outlaw it.) What does it accomplish?

How about the LGBTQ community? To what end are their demands? What must happen for them to say, “That’s it, we’ve reached our goal. We ask no further of society and culture.” What would that look like? Is that even possible?

Either case, these being but two of many, requires incessant bleeding for continued acquisition of power. There can be no coagulation. The wound cannot heal. The demands cannot cease. Peace cannot prevail. It is all about the continuous acquisition of more and more power.

Back to the counterfeit: First, to racial strife; let us look at it through God’s lens:
