♦Stage One: Demoralization – Elimination of American Exceptionalism,
fundamental change of national identity, structural deconstruction of
foundational principles, elimination of religion. Embedding a new societal
design upon the psyche of generations through ideological academia. Peer pressure
by elites upon academics and society to convince that prior values were
inherently flawed, racist, prejudiced etc. National identity is diluted with
aspersions toward historical references. National history is re-written,
re-defined, and molded to fit the new intended behavioral model and create the
new values.
♦Stage Two: Crisis – Creation of economic, financial, and national
security crisis. Also includes social crisis and breakdown of previous
self-evident restrictions on moral behavior. Cloward Piven approach to
overloading the system, ie more takers than producers. The crisis produces
benevolent leaders who will promise to deliver “things” (Hope and Change) to
meet people’s needs through Social and Economic Justice. False illusions that
the situation is under control if certain strategic directions are followed
(Bailouts, Stimulus, Jobs Bills, Regulations of industry, Unconstitutional
Power Grabs, Dismissal of Historical Laws, Changes in legislative processes,
Changes in checks and balances of power etc).
♦Stage Three: Normalization – The uncomfortable feelings of change including
losses of freedom are absorbed and accepted. Lost national identity becomes
accepted as the norm within the new societal model. A period of national rebranding transition
where people are so overwhelmed by the change they become numb and begin to
accept a ‘new normal’. This
period of normalization lasts indefinitely as the progression is continually
advanced and acceptance takes place in small controlled doses. (New limits on behavior,
Regulations, TSA Patdowns, Intrusions into privacy, Controls into daily life)
These things begin to be accepted as “just the way it is now”..
♦Stage Four: Destabilization – Unlike the period of “Crisis” the people who
helped orchestrate the change are now no longer needed. The new overarching
centralized governmental model begins to take control. Leftist usurpers who
initially thought they were going to be part of the new power structure begin
to realize they were used and manipulated and they themselves become the new
enemy. Because they have first hand knowledge of the agenda they are the
primary target for elimination. They may simply be disregarded, obfuscated,
thrown out, or they may be collected, imprisoned, or worse killed. There is no
longer room for dissention. Dissent is only possible within the free system
that has now been deconstructed. Therefore the leftist purpose is served once
the destabilization is complete. Totalitarian Government takes control.
And don't buy into that nonsense about how the illegals will work and pay taxes. We spend billions on their housing, schools, medical, welfare, and they contribute little. A lot of their money is paid "under the table" so employers can pay less and avoid payroll taxes, etc. so the illegals don't have to claim the income either.
And they don't spend their money here. Here's a link from Mexico itself showing their largest source of income is money from foreign counties, mostly USA. Old numbers from 2017, so I'm sure the figure is higher now. Scroll to the bottom to see how they're mocking us. HERE.
That's all I have, but before I go, I wanted to let you know that Friend Jean told me that yes, Mike's caterpillar from the September 21 post will be a Monarch butterfly and mine will be a Black Swallowtail. Such a clever lady. She actually raises Monarchs to release back into nature.
