SOME timely political observations from Chuck Baldwin:
THIS plan would not have worked had Donald Trump not been in the White House. This plan totally depended on evangelical pastors and churches sheepishly going along with it. This they would not have done had a liberal Democrat been in the White House. Are you kidding? Commanding churches to cancel their services—no communions, no baptisms, no Easter services—a total shutdown of houses of worship nationwide? Are you kidding me? You and I both know that if Hillary Clinton were president and she had said that no more than ten people could assemble in church—or anywhere else, for that matter—pastors and Christians would have protested in the streets and would have defiantly continued their public services en masse. But, because Donald Trump issued the declaration, almost the entire evangelical world bowed the knee to the state without a whimper.
The rest was easy. Restaurant closures, business closures, school closures, travel restrictions, rationed medical care and empty hospitals: Once evangelicals had been neutralized, there was no resistance.
Even so-called patriot leaders such as Oath Keepers Founder and President Stewart Rhodes joined the chorus of Big Government shills calling for government lockdown of our lives. Rhodes’ open letter to governors could have been easily written by Big Pharma Fascist Anthony Fauci.
By the way, on April 3—after reading Stewart’s Naziesque letter—I resigned my position as National Chaplain of Oath Keepers.
What Baldwin says here is so obviously true and explains the muted reaction to the Corona Coup from so-called conservatives.
A correspondent informs me that all his favorite conservative websites offer no complaint or resistance to lockdown lies. I don’t read any of them, but I’m not surprised. These traitors care more about their political party than their country. Politics is just another spectator sport and they are fanatically attached to their sports team. They are political tribalists. When push comes to totalitarian shove, all their flag-wearing, flag-waving talk of freedom — blah, blah, blah — is so much empty chauvinism and flag-drunkenness. As long as their man, the Crisis-Actor in Chief, the Swamp-filler, is in office, all must be well with the world. Their hatred of Hillary exceeds their love of freedom. They have no love of truth. Hence their wholesale capitulation to the lies of 9/11, a surrender which has made the Corona Coup possible.
Americanism is a civil religion, a form of toxic idolatry, and the crisis we are experiencing right now shows just how bankrupt that religion is and how rejecting a love of truth and the sovereignty of God over all things in favor of political partisanship leads to the end of political parties and to the One Party State beholden to Big Money.
The American love of freedom is nothing more than a love of fireworks on Fourth of July.
Even neoconservatives who have been writing about dystopian fiction for years offer scarcely a word of protest to the blatant fulfillment of those literary visions. Every single one of us right now is a character in an Orwellian novel, force fed mind-control terms like “social-distancing, “flattening the curve,” and “shelter in place,” so much Newspeak that makes tyranny cozy and gives it a nauseating sheen of bureaucratic competence. We are physically and mentally locked down. Every move we make is regulated by the government. The middle class is being purposely and willfully destroyed, small businesses and the “free market” (it never was) conservatives supposedly cherish is being systematically trashed in favor of unprecedented centralization, just as it was under Bolshevism while the one percent sucks up as many freebies as it can before it all collapses. Amazon rakes in billions while your barber and the last remaining independent store keepers prepare to close up for good. Fortunately, there are a few states — the most powerless — where things have eased, but where I live the lockdown is likely to go on in some form for many months and, in any event, it has caused mental trauma that will linger for many, many years. Thanks, conservatards.
Our government cares nothing about us, and actually hates us. We are its enemy. The idea that it cares about our health is laughable. It intends to kill each one of you with Medicare-funded morphine someday before you get the chance to say goodbye, pushes mass vaccination purely for profit and has already killed much of the next generation through abortion, which remains fully available and government-subsidized during the lockdown. It supports depopulation. That’s a fancy word for murder. It cares about itself only and the corporate and political interests — and secret clubs with mad, One World visions that have thrived going back to the American Revolution — that feed it.
By the way, I’m surprised Baldwin, a Protestant preacher, didn’t realize a long time ago that Oath Keepers is controlled opposition. Well, better late than never.
Oath Keepers is just another flag-waving, flag-wearing, flag-drunk fraud in a land of pseudo-patriotism.
