The Social Decay That We See All Around Us Is Absolutely Breathtaking

Via End Of The American Dream

Throughout human history we have seen great nations rise and fall, and for many of them it was not actually an external threat that took them down.  When the social decay inside a society gets bad enough, it is just a matter of time before that society falls apart.  That is why what is happening to the United States is so deeply troubling.  Everywhere around us there is evidence that the social order in this country is rotting.  At one time we were the most respected nation on the entire planet, but now we have become the laughingstock of the world.  And instead of setting a good example for the rest of us, our leaders are some of the greatest examples of corruption and filth.

Our founders would be absolutely nauseated if they could see what our federal government has become today.  There is so much corruption in Congress that nobody is really fazed when yet another scandal breaks.  This week, the public learned about the twisted sexual adventures of Democratic congresswoman Katie Hill, and there isn’t that much public outrage because we have come to expect this sort of thing from our representatives.  The following is how the Daily Mail summarized some of the key facts in this case…

• Hill was pictured kissing and brushing her young female staffer’s hair, who DailyMail.com can identify as Morgan Desjardins from Santa Clarita, California
• The then 22-year-old began a throuple relationship with Hill and her husband Kenny Heslep shortly after she started working for Hill in 2017
• Texts and photos between Hill, Heslep and Desjardins reveal their throuple was steamy at first, but ended with Hill leaving them ‘high and dry’
• The congresswoman was also seen posing naked while smoking a bong on 9/11 in 2017, as a tattoo of a Nazi-era Iron Cross on her bikini line is on full display

It has also come out that Hill and her husband posted nude photos of her on “wife sharing” websites in 2016.

Is this really who we want representing us in Washington?

‘What You Think’ Is Controlled By ‘What You Watch’, And ‘What You Watch’ Is Controlled By ‘The Elite’

Via Zero Hedge

Why do you believe what you believe? Some people have a really solid answer to that question, but much of the population never thinks much about deeper questions such as this. In fact, for most Americans it is simply easier to let others do their thinking for them. Today, most of us spend multiple hours each day absorbing information through a screen, and most of the content that is fed to us through our televisions, phones, tablets and computers is controlled by the elite. And if you allow anyone to feed information into your mind for several hours every day, it is going to have a dramatic impact on how you view the world.

When I was younger, one of my favorite movies was “The Matrix”, and I think that it is a really good metaphor for what is going on in our society today. In the film, nearly the entire human population was plugged into a system which continuously fed a computer-generated reality into their minds that wasn’t real at all. Later on, I eventually came to realize that we are willingly doing the same thing to ourselves. Our personal interactions with one another are extremely limited, but we willingly “plug in” to the enormous matrix of news, information and entertainment that the elite have constructed for many hours each day.

According to numbers that were released earlier this year, the average American spends more than three hours watching television and more than three hours on mobile devices every single day…

It’s official: This year marks the first time that Americans will spend more time staring down at their phones and tablets than they will watching television.

The average U.S. adult will spend three hours and 43 minutes on mobile devices this year, according to EMarketer Inc., which is eight minutes longer than the three hours and 35 minutes that will be spent in front of the TV.

If Americans from previous generations could visit our society right now, they would probably be horrified that we are all constantly staring at our screens like some sort of zombies.

And perhaps it wouldn’t be so bad if we were feeding our minds healthy things, but instead most of what we are absorbing is garbage that has been produced by the elite.

NOTE: This is an excellent interview that is predictably being distorted by the enemies of America over Snowden’s comments about searching databases for evidence of aliens (space not illegals) but it is a stunning revelation of just how much that we lost under the horrific sixteen years of Bush and then Obama and their war on American privacy along with the massive expansion of the surveillance state that is being used against all of us now.  This is well worth the three hours of time spent, you can always podcast it as well.

Edward Snowden on Joe Rogan podcast reminds us that privacy is gone

Via The Post Millennial

U.S. whistleblower Edward Snowden appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience from Moscow Wednesday, and promptly reminded us why we should all be terrified of the “brave new world” that humanity is marching towards now.

Snowden, who was chased out of his home country for disclosing sensitive information, appeared on the show to remind the masses that the neon gods of technology to which we bow and pray each day are doing much more harm than good. And to promote his book about his life.

Specifically, Snowden forces the listener to reassess the role that smartphones have in our lives.

“The big thing that’s changed since 2013 is now it’s mobile-first everything,” explained Snowden, who went on to explain how the mobile tech boom has radically shifted the way that our lives function at an almost metaphysical level.

Snowden’s descriptions of how cell phones collect data and transport information to nearby cell towers, how obscure and ephemeral moments in one’s life no longer exist as a concept. Nothing enters the void, and everything is documented.

The reality that Snowden describes goes as follows: As a person who carries a cell phone around, you are agreeing to a lot of things that may not be obvious to the user.

For one, there is now a record of your presence at any place, at any time (that has a cell phone tower nearby). These records are being stored by companies that do not need to keep this information, as “there is no good argument for it to be kept forever, but these companies see that as valuable information,” something that Snowden calls “The big data problem.”

“This is all information that used to be ephemeral; where were you when you were 8 years old? Where’d you go after you had a bad breakup? Who’d you spend the night with? Who’d you call after? All this information used to be ephemeral—meaning it disappeared like the morning dew, it would be gone, no one would remember it—Now these things are stored.”

Target Donates $100,000 to Create More James Younger Tragedies with ‘Trans’ Education for Kids

Via Big League Politics

Corporate America is endorsing the LGBT agenda.

It has become en vogue for monolithic corporations to promote the LGBT agenda in recent years, and Target is among the worst culprits of this trend. The retailer is putting $100,000 toward a front for LGBT education that aims to cultivate an entire generation of children like James Younger.

According to LifeSiteNews, Target has announced that they are giving $100,000 to GLSEN. GLSEN is an organization that advertises itself as “the leading national education organization focused on ensuring safe and affirming schools for LGBTQ students.”’

“Our mission is to create safe and affirming schools for all, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression,” GLSEN states on their website.

The GLSEN organization promotes teaching third-grade children about “gender-neutral” pronouns and gender ideology, introducing them to the idea of transgenderism at a young age. Their organization is globalist in nature working to promote the LGBT agenda in Canada, China, Ireland, Israel, South Africa, and Britain in addition to the United States.

Demonstrating the incestuous relationship between corporate America and the LGBT agenda, Target chief marketing officer Rick Gomez even sits on GLSEN’s board of directors. Target also sells LGBT-themed clothing to children. They offer t-shirts that say “Love my dads,” and “Love my moms.”

GLSEN is also backed monetarily by Hollister, Walt Disney, JP Morgan Chase and Co., HBO, Delta Airlines, NBA, McDonald’s, AT&T, Morgan Stanley, Gucci, Bloomberg, and Colgate-Palmolive.

Asylum Orderlies Return Hillary Clinton To Padded Cell Disguised As Oval Office

Via The Babylon Bee (Satire)

WASHINGTON, D.C.—According to sources close to Hillary Clinton, the failed presidential candidate was gently returned to her padded cell disguised as the Oval Office over the weekend.

After the failed presidential candidate had escaped from the premises again and accused thousands of people of being Russian agents, orderlies were finally able to catch her and guide her back to her cell. She had escaped through the ventilation ducts, apparently, and quickly gave deranged interviews in which she seemed not to understand that she hadn’t won the 2016 election. She also found a smartphone and tweeted troubling things, causing asylum personnel to put out a call for her safe return.

“If anyone sees a crazy-looking old woman running around saying she’s the president, do not approach her. She is very dangerous,” the mental institution said in a statement. “Please phone the authorities right away so we can get her back to safety.”

Finally, someone spotted her screaming at a Costco sample lady, accusing the poor woman of being a Russian asset, and authorities arrived to haul her back to her cell.

“Come on, Hill, right this way,” said one medical assistant, tenderly guiding her down a hallway to her custom cell. “Time to go back to your ce—err, your office.”

Clinton tried to resist, insisting that she couldn’t go back to the Oval Office right now as she had a trip scheduled to meet with some foreign leaders. “Yes, OK, dear, that’s fine. That’s just great. Why don’t we have a little nap and then we’ll meet with the foreign delegates later, OK, hon?”
