Despite Joe Biden’s promise of unity
during his 2020 US presidential campaign, his administration has failed to
unify the people. On the contrary, his divisive rhetoric means Americans are
more polarized than ever.
I would argue that America has already fallen
into what might be termed a ‘cold civil war’, following the 2020 election. “We
the People” just do not see eye-to-eye on several significant issues, and it
doesn’t help that many of those were thrown at us all at once, beginning with
Covid-19. Since the first lockdown that pummeled our economy, Americans have
been at fierce odds with each other over almost everything – especially if it’s
Covid related.
We vehemently disagree over vaccines,
vaccine cards, mandates, and masks. And President Biden isn’t exactly trying to
douse the flames with his divisive language. In February of last year, he
demanded Covid vaccine compliance for all federal workers. Then in September, he shocked America with
his comment that his “patience is wearing
thin” with the millions of Americans who didn’t want the shots. This
was a bizarre statement coming from a US president, especially since Americans,
including those who chose not to be vaccinated, are the people he works for.
Then in late December, echoing his “dark
winter” remarks from the 2020 debates, he addressed the American people in two separate
categories – the vaccinated vs. the unvaccinated. “We are looking at a
winter of severe illness and death for the unvaccinated – for themselves, their
families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm,” he said.
Attempting to coerce a population by using
fear and intimidation is not behavior typical of an American president. Those
who voted for him may not see it, and those who did not vote for him
undoubtedly feel even more disenfranchised.
Yet while the Biden administration remains
laser-focused on all things Covid, the leading cause of death in the US for
those between the ages of 18-45 is fentanyl overdose. The drug is flowing into the country as
a result of the crisis at
our southern border, which has been disastrous for both America and Mexico, and
highly profitable for drug cartels and human traffickers. This is a grim fact
we can’t ignore and sets the backdrop for the insecurity and chaos hurting our
communities.
At the
same time, our country is being battered with back-to-back crises,
including record-high crime in our major cities, and the
never-ending pandemic Biden can’t ‘shut down after all, with Americans simultaneously
being forced into poverty. Hit with hyperinflation not seen since the era of Jimmy Carter,
America’s middle and lower classes are struggling. Gas prices are soaring, food
is more expensive, and now we have a housing market where only the wealthy can
afford to buy single-family homes. With a ‘have and have not’ economy, it’s
only to be expected that citizens will grow restless.
Still, all
of this, while enough to make an already frustrated population become increasingly
agitated, fearful, and angry, is only the surface of what deeply divides us.
Just under that surface are two camps of political ideology that have always
been at war, but now the heat has been dialed up to 11. Half the country, let’s
not forget, voted for Donald Trump. Many of those believe he won. To add fuel to that fire, we had the
unfortunate January 6 event at the Capitol that the left still insists was an
“insurrection,” and the other side feels was a mass protest gone wrong.
We are
divided over Critical Race Theory and the incessant pushing of a race
war by often deceptive, shameless media. Many Americans no longer trust the media anyway, and therefore have no reliable
source of information. How could we possibly understand each other under these
conditions? Unity seems like a distant 2019 dream.
But our
right vs. left feud is not simply about politics and a failing economy, or who
did or didn’t get a vaccine. It’s not about race or gender, either. If that was
all, we’d actually be okay. But we have a greater hurdle in front of us. At the
root of our civil discord are our opposing beliefs about our fundamental rights
and bodily autonomy, how we should raise and teach our children, and the place
of God and religion in our institutions and in our culture. There are those of
us who want to keep the same country that was founded on Judeo-Christian
values and those who want a secular America.
A second civil war is not likely. But the physical battle isn’t always worse than having a country so ideologically
opposed that we can’t stand to live together. We aren’t one nation, but two,
forced by circumstance to share land and resources. Those are certainly not the
ingredients that make a nation great. We need some fabric to hold us together so that we can at least unite over shared history, and hope for a future.
Americans simply don’t have that right now.
What Americans have instead is class
warfare being agitated by a few elites at the top, including some traitorous
American politicians and billionaires. These people relish in taking advantage
of our strife, and they know very well about all of the conflicts I mentioned
above. They encourage the conflict, because they know it weakens us.
What all elites and globalists have always
wanted is global economic domination by way of global communism. The New World
Order isn’t being hidden anymore. It’s being spoken about quite openly. The
United States is absolutely the one country that can stand in its way. And
that is exactly why we DO have hope as a country. It will take some time and a
lot of hard work – but there’s a way back home.
America’s founding fathers gifted us with
the Constitution. All we have to do to save our country and our freedom is
defend it. Regardless of a political party, race, creed, religion, or class, We
the People are ALL protected by our Constitution. It is the one thing we share
that, if conserved as is, will keep us free. That’s because that document tells
us and the world that we do not get our rights from the government but from
God. It keeps big government off our necks – and when the government is off our
necks, we won’t be at each other’s throats.
I’m reminded of the 1990s sci-fi
movie ‘Independence Day with Will Smith, where all of
humanity is forced to come together from around the globe to fight off an
invasion of enslaving aliens. In the film, everyone must learn to communicate
in order to defend their very right to exist. They united to fight back against
their own annihilation. We should do the same, while we can.
Even if we vehemently disagree on
politics, masks, vaccines, immigration protocols, guns, the environment, and
more, we need to fight for our right to exist as a nation. If we continue to
allow the ruling class the unprecedented authority they have recently acquired
under the cloak of Covid, they will use any excuse to control every aspect of
our lives, and our freedom will be eroded in the same way one goes broke –
gradually, then all at once.
That’s the real war being waged right now,
and it’s long past time we all wake up and see it, whether you’re a Republican
or a Democrat or neither. We can go back to arguing about politics and masks
after we regain power for the people. But right now, we have to fight those who
would love to see us self-destruct. So let’s begin 2022 with these wise words
and share them widely.
“We
the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect
Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common
defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to
ourselves and our Posterity do ordain and establish this Constitution for the
United States of America.”
This is what Americans must do to preserve
our independence. Civil war will have to wait.
