MUSINGS FOR SEPTEMBER ~

I never dreamed that I would have to face the prospect of not living in the United States of America, at least not the one I have known all my life. I have never wished to live anywhere else. This is my home and I was privileged to be born here.

But today I woke up and as I had my morning coffee I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same. I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life so filled with hate that they will agree with opinions that if they were in their right minds they would never express as their own. It’s absolutely unbelievable. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone…..then I saw this and I think that it’s pretty close to describing how I feel.

Many who will argue how “wrong” this post is. My suggestion, save your time and effort! You’re not changing the reality of what we are living by trying to somehow justify this insanity. Nevertheless, I couldn’t resist because we’re becoming the Twilight Zone. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind!

  • If a dude pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.

  • Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.

  • Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good.

  • It was cool for Joe Biden to “blackmail” the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it.

  • Twenty is too young to drink a beer, but eighteen is old enough to vote.

  • People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.

  • Inflammatory rhetoric is outrageous, but harassing people in restaurants is virtuous.

  • People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees.

  • Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.

  • Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcome

  • $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not.

  • If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.

  • People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.

  • We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us.

  • Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.

  • Criminals are catch-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it’s a violation of THEIR rights.

  • And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us “racists”?!

Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it’s racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China. We are clearly living in an upside-down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right, where darkness is light and light is now darkness.

Wake  up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water and sinking fast. The choice is yours to make. What will it be?  Time is short.  Choose wisely!

    We are in deed in the ‘twilight zone and we must continue to be our normal Christian God loving God fearing selves and not succumb to the evil that surrounds us. We must be a light for others.
    We’ve been gaslighted. ‘From Wikipedia: Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or a group covertly sows seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or group, making them question their own memory, perception, or judgment, often evoking in them cognitive dissonance and other changes, including low self-esteem. Using denial, misdirection, contradiction, and misinformation, gaslighting involves attempts to destabilize the victim and delegitimize the victim’s beliefs. Instances can range from the denial by an abuser that previous abusive incidents occurred, to belittling the victim’s emotions and feelings, to the staging of bizarre events by the abuser with the intention of disorienting the victim. The term originated from the British play Gas Light (1938), performed as Angel Street in the United States, and its 1940 and 1944 film adaptations (both titled Gaslight). The term has now been used in clinical psychological literature,[1][2] as well as in political commentary and philosophy.[3]
