Description

If you combined American Horror Story and The Truman Show, you could make a movie that looks a lot like 2021.



Real doctors get condemned, while political doctors get praised. Felons go free while conservative-minded people get criticized and treated like criminals. The government determines morality while churches bow to the woke mob.



Based on what people say in private, most Americans aren't on board with the agendas and ideologies of the far left. However, few stand up or speak out against what's going on.



Some people want to avoid the discomfort of getting involved or even speaking their minds. Others wait for someone else to take action. And still others are so addicted to their pacifiers of Netflix, pro sports, video games, or some other form of entertainment that they don't even know what's going on.



Many feel scared to speak up, knowing it could lead to job termination, public shaming, or missed invitations to cool club events.



For the sake of our children and grandchildren, concerned adults can't afford to sit in the bleachers anymore.





Something isn't right.



Isn't it odd that even after a record number of adverse events and deaths, politicians and celebrities still push the public to get vaccinated? What's behind (or in) that COVID-19 vaccine? What is the incentive for politicians? It isn't to rebuild their economies because good Governors like Kristi Noem and Ron DeSantis showed us that the businesses didn't need to be destroyed in the first place.



Aren't you appalled by networks like Nickelodeon and Disney pushing the LGBTQ+ agenda on children? There was a time when certain topics were off-limits when speaking to kids. It was up to the parent to decide how and when to discuss those topics. How many parents remain unaware of what their kids are learning in schools and from cartoons on television?



Isn't it odd that crime, including murders, is occurring at record numbers in many large cities? Yet, the media talks little about it, and local governments seem disinterested in completely stopping it.



Why are the armed forces so focused on creating racial division instead of focusing on protecting our republic from its adversaries?



How is it that good is bad and bad is good, morality is considered amoral while immorality is considered normal, and even celebrated?



What will the next national crisis involve, and how will it be used to further these and other related agendas?



Many of these questions don't have specific answers. They don't need answers, though. If most people oppose these and other related issues, they simply need adult citizens to make decisions that slow or prevent the spread of such ideologies.



After all, in the United States, it's the citizens who own the government, not the government that owns its citizens.



I've included this quote from President Lincoln in blog posts a couple of times already. He said it long before becoming the President. It seems almost prophetic today.




At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.
Abraham Lincoln, Lyceum Address, 1838



Where are we headed?



I started my freshman year at The College of St. Scholastica in 1995. During an orientation session, a married couple spoke to us about safe sex. Being that it is a Catholic college (I'm not Catholic, but the school is), they also talked about natural birth control. The couple's wife spoke about how women can keep track of their cycle, and during their periods and days they're most fertile, find other ways of having sex that doesn't involve intercourse.



I was a bit surprised by the discussion, being that we were at a Catholic school and were a bunch of freshmen. It was as though they were condoning premarital sex from the ...

Tune into the audio version of my written articles found at tomnikkola.com, read by yours truly. I candidly cover health and fitness, including topics on diet, exercise, metabolism, supplements, essential oils, and fortitude. After 20 years as a fitness professional, I’ve heard and read a lot of nonsense. In each article, I attempt to simplify confusing topics, bring truth to myths, and help you learn how to build strength and resilience in an environment and culture that glorifies weakness and victimhood.
