The Elites Versus ‘The Rest Of Us’<\/span><\/p>\n

The elites view radical, violent protest movements – and the groups that foster them, such as Black Lives Matter – with extraordinary tolerance and charity.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0But when a true populist movement arises, and white, working-class Christians get uppity and threaten to vote for someone like a Donald Trump, they go into full \u201csnit\u201d mode and look down their noses in horror and approbation at the great unwashed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Brexit, too, was an example of the elites being caught with their pants down.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0They simply couldn\u2019t believe that many folks would challenge the wisdom they so generously espoused from atop their political thrones.\u00a0\u00a0With staggering and sickening hubris, these elites characterized Trump\u2019s rise and Britain\u2019s E.U. exit as \u201cillegitimate,\u201d \u201cirrational,\u201d and unforgivable effrontery \u2014 a revolt against \u201cexperts\u2019\u201d authority.\u00a0\u00a0(To quote the \u201cChurch Lady\u201d from the old\u00a0Saturday Night Live<\/em>\u00a0skit: \u201cWell, isn\u2019t that special?\u201d\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s well past time these bureaucratic bedsores took one on the chin.)<\/p>\n

This \u201crevolt\u201d is anything but irrational.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0In America, the white working class has suffered through declining marriage rates, stagnant \u2014 or worse \u2014 wage rates…and even declining\u00a0life expectancy<\/em>. They see illegal aliens and robots taking jobs away from them while their values are denigrated on a daily basis.\u00a0\u00a0They see the elites\u2019 attempt to take their firearms away from them at the same time as they strive to import more and more aliens into their communities, some from terrorist hotbeds.\u00a0\u00a0Their eyes widen as the powers that be force-feed them transgender bathrooms and mock Christianity while embracing Islam as a \u201creligion of peace.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0They bust their butts and pay their taxes…and are rewarded by being called \u201chicks\u201d and racists and homophobes, even as they see more and more people being given a free ride, courtesy of the government they partially pay for.<\/strong><\/p>\n

They know they are not the aggressors, but the aggrieved.\u00a0\u00a0They are not the predators, but the prey.\u00a0\u00a0They have a big target on their backs, and they are finally,\u00a0logically<\/em>,\u00a0reasonably<\/em>,\u00a0getting tired of it.<\/p>\n

The elites don\u2019t care.\u00a0\u00a0They know the end result of their own policies.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0They carefully pander to every type of minority, as these groups will be the majority in the very near future, and likely an overwhelming majority not that long after that.\u00a0\u00a0In a twisted political dance, the \u201ctolerant\u201d elitists are already boldly discriminating against a bare majority…in order to prove to the large minority that they\u00a0won\u2019t<\/em>\u00a0discriminate against\u00a0them<\/em>!<\/p>\n

Far too many unelected, bureaucratic pencil-pushers in Washington and Brussels have been granted nearly complete control over those they are supposedly to serve<\/strong>, due to the cravenness of their elected \u201cbosses.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0These duplicitous diplomats and sanctimonious \u201cservants\u201d sneer self-righteously at those who they derisively say cling to their God and their guns, as they arouse themselves by marinating in their own supposed superiority.<\/p>\n

The West and its signature values of limited representative government, respect for the individual, free will, free markets, discipline, work ethic, and reasoned faith led the world out of the Dark Ages.\u00a0\u00a0Bizarrely and remarkably, the truth of the matter is that\u00a0elites\u00a0<\/em>in the Western media, government, entertainment, and academia are now\u00a0revolting<\/em>\u00a0against the same values that changed the world so much for the better.\u00a0\u00a0Progressive?<\/p>\n

In America, the Biden administration is putting the kibosh on gas stoves and, now, all new\u00a0liquid natural gas export approvals<\/a>, ostensibly to fight climate change \u2014 but, some believe, more likely just to piss off political opponents.\u00a0\u00a0Mindbogglingly, various Western governments are essentially\u00a0declaring war on farmers<\/a>, or at least farming, again purportedly to combat global warming.\u00a0\u00a0So what will 8 billion people eat?\u00a0\u00a0The elites say, \u201cLet them eat bugs!\u201d\u00a0\u00a0Indeed, you will\u00a0eat ze bugs<\/a>…and be happy!\u00a0\u00a0The globalists at the WEF have taken it upon themselves to plan our subjugation.\u00a0\u00a0In a sort of reverse Genesis, these would-be deities seek to save the earth from humanity.\u00a0\u00a0At the 2024 Forum, the global aristocracy vowed to ramp up\u00a0censorship<\/a>\u00a0of dissenting opinion.\u00a0\u00a0If they can successfully implement broad-based censorship of those with whom they disagree, there is no hope for the rest of us to throw off our shackles.\u00a0\u00a0Period.\u00a0\u00a0That is why the American Founders wrote \u2014 and enshrined \u2014 the\u00a0First<\/em>\u00a0Amendment to the Constitution.<\/p>\n

The elites believe they know what\u2019s best for everyone else, and the planet at large.\u00a0\u00a0But in reality, they are far more concerned with what\u2019s best for them<\/strong> \u2014 and their image as virtue-signaling champions of a supposedly utopian future.\u00a0\u00a0It is up to us to ensure that their assault on logic, morality, and sanity does not succeed \u2014 no matter the consequences.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
