Never before in
America’s history has popular sovereignty and her liberty faced so bleak a
future. Recall the hot mic coverage of President Obama’s mysterious, if not
inflammatory, response to former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, “I’ll
have more flexibility after the election.” And indeed, President Obama has
had all that post-reelection time in abundance, rarely seeking any
congressional review on issues greatly important to his agenda. The unintentional
eavesdrop was a foreshadowing of devastating
proportions far beyond that Seoul, South Korea summit in 2012.
Of course,
Medvedev’s final reply was the bobble-headed “I understand. I will transmit
this information to Vladimir [Putin].” And for the White House, the
response in subsequent days appeared to foreshadow what we see now as global
decadence. Obama cannot legally run for reelection, so he need never be
concerned of the opinions of his sheep as he, the tiger, exposes his stripes
more daily as he devours his flock.
More than a
quarter-century since the fall of the Berlin Wall, any hope for a hundred
flowers to bloom now reek of Mao Zedong’s deathly stench akin to China’s
Cultural Revolution. Not one lesson was learned, except a far worse account of
rehashed “-isms” which include communism, National Socialism, the Islamic
world’s final push for a global caliphate and corporatism. Americans for better
than 200 years learned and understood her history of unrivaled exceptionalism,
how she rose victorious over Great Britain twice between 1775 and 1816. Now,
the cultural decay sees my former students believing Babe Ruth broke the color
barrier in baseball while other have never heard of the Beatles. But when one
student in a U.S. History course did not know Barack Obama was president of the
United States, the great fear I prayed would never arise was confirmed when the
blissfully-ignorant, doomed kid immediately returned to his iPhone.
Yes. America
truly has raised a generation of idiots. Technology finally surpassed mankind’s
common sense.
All perceived
misattribution to Albert Einstein notwithstanding, my great hope upon entry
into college in 2000 was for the Internet leading to the postmodern world’s
intellectual renaissance.
My family’s
first cell phone was a car setup inside a small black bag. In 2001, I was given
my first carry-on cell phone, a square blue Nokia. Neither piece possessed the
ability to text, to access websites or television. But by the mid-to-late
2000’s, the technology expanded to each of those characteristics, not to
mention the camera lenses birthing the abominable rise of the selfie, of
universal narcissism. Duck kisses, text messaging and the death of the
traditional voice phone call and interpersonal interactions yielded the dangerous
phenomena of social introversion and self-exploitation. And the Internet, even
among college students, is too taxing to bother applying it to research and
education when there is World of Warcraft, cheese puff and grape soda to sip.
MTV now promotes racial hatred, the advocacy for all white
Americans to self-loathe due to their guilt of genetic “white privilege”. The
traditional role of families, a sense of community through schools and
churches, of comradery and in general, the desire for liberty are not merely
discouraged, but often outlawed, to be met by the myriad federal bureaucracies
wrath through persecution and incarceration. And there are no longer measurable
differences between Left and Right. We are now prohibited from identifying what
is wrong from the establishment’s definition of “right”.
Worst of all,
the federal government proclaimed the greatest terrorist threat are those who
are “pro-sovereignty, right-wing extremists” engaging in violence in the name
of the Bible. The definition expands to those suddenly opposing Obama’s
policies after historically voting for Democrats.
Today, Black
Power fascists demand the entire white community pay slavery reparations due to
emotional distress from the antebellum period. But who they kidding? We already are! And those we are forced to subsidize led by their
puppet masters string the rest of us along while, dumbfounded, are forced to
greet the world with “Howdy Doody!” The surviving byproducts of feckless
1960’s ideology raised my generation of millennials to govern the present
idiocracy. It is difficult to fix an individual’s ignorance, much less a
society where it is against the law not to be given today’s collegians are
somehow crippled by “microaggressions” while reliving the corner of Haight and
Ashbury and Woodstock for their hippie grandparents — who taught them to just be dumb and codependent.
