Death by Desire

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marxists steal our children. They told us they would. We ignore them.

No one born after 1984 has lived in or understands a republic. They have lived through economic chaos; terrorism; big government ascendancy; the convergence of the Party's and the surveillance society.

Technology has brought us many advances but it's truly evil feature has been the loss of privacy. Most people under 30 years old have never lived in a time where they enjoyed any concept of a private life. Their lives are lived on the internet; before the entire world. Parents have happily embraced this 'transparency'. Kids are given internet capable phones at very young ages. Social media is the friend we could never have when we were children. Acceptance. Love. Understanding. It all comes from an electronic device.

Privacy is inculcated in the American Ideal. Individualism is dependent on ones ability to pursue ones goals and ambitions without outside interference. NOTHING is done in Modern America without outside interference. We lay our lives before the world. This is antithetical to the ideal of our founding.

There are several very basic instincts of human beings. Desire is foremost. Desire for food. Desire for sex. Desire for acceptance. These are the strongest of them all. Desire for acceptance is third only to food and sex among the strongest human pursuits. This is the target of the Marxist Ideal. The desire to be accepted. The want of friendship. The need to be a part of the tribe. Think about it. Almost as strong as the need to eat or the desire for sex is the complete obsession with being accepted by ones peers. THIS, is the tool of the collectivist.

Now think. What weakens that desire? What would diminish ones desire to seek out acceptance from strangers? Family? Faith? Absolutely. Which is exactly why these are the two institutions targeted by Marxist Ideology. Family and Faith provide the acceptance and sense of belonging that keep one from straying to surrogate 'families'. This is precisely why collectivists target these institutions for destruction. It is no coincidence that American traditional values have descended in lock step with the destruction of the American family and the targeting of religious values in our culture. Our nation LIVES and DIES within our families and our faith.

As fathers have abrogated their duty to raise their children; those very children have embraced Socialism. They have sought acceptance in a collective dream after being rejected by a traditional reality. Our own selfishness has delivered our children to the devil himself. And we sit around in shock, wondering what happened to our world. We destroyed it with our narcissism. We destroy life with impunity and wonder why our youth have no respect for life. You didn't think you could murder 10's of millions of innocent babies and just walk away, did you?

Our children have no sense of freedom, respect for life or law. How do we expect them to make a logical decision in the political arena? Government is more of a father to them than we have been. They long for it. They desire it. Government is their saviour. For we are not. Government fills the void that our selfishness has left in their lives. Who can blame them?

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. This is only possible with the love and support of Family and Faith in the formative years of youth. Deny that to any child; and they will grow up seeking acceptance. They will find it, in gangs and collectivism. May God have mercy on our souls for He will not on our temporal lives.
