By Tom Toles good research... wrong conclusion You can stop calling for a dialogue between right and left. It can no longer happen. We agree on everything. Here are all the things we agree on. Tyranny: Conservatives and liberals both say that tyranny resides in the other party. Official corruption: Conservatives and liberals are alarmed at the official corruption that is manifest in the other party. Draining the swamp: Conservatives and liberals are frantic at the swampwater swirling around the ankles of the other party. Wall Street power: Conservatives and liberals are quick to point out the cozy relationship between Wall Street and the other party. States’ rights: Conservatives and liberals both defend the rights of localities to properly resist bad federal policy. Obstruction: Conservatives and liberals both believe it is right and essential to resist the president of the other party. Election fraud: Conservatives and liberals think the other party is manipulating elections. Health care: Conservatives and liberals both know the other party is out to destroy the U.S. health-care system. Deficits: Conservatives and liberals both think deficits are the worst thing, sometimes. Fake facts: Conservatives and liberals are both sure that the other side’s facts are fake. Am I implying a false equivalence here? Hardly. Conservatives don’t care about facts or logic and say whatever is convenient to confound rational discourse. And, of course, they say the same about me. ____________________ Tom, you are spot on with your observation! However, there is a right side and a wrong side when it comes to progressive liberals and conservatives. Celebrating Death The party that now even “celebrates” abortion rights are endorsing the largest mass genocide in human history (60 million since Roe vs. Wade). There have been more abortions committed than every single person ever lost in combat. Belief is acknowledging that God is our source for all good things... worry and concern is an acknowledgement that we do not believe in a benevolent, generous God that is more than able to meet all our needs. There has arisen a segment of society that demonstrates unbelief which reveals the same fatal trait of their father, the devil... self importance. They believe that they know better than their creator. This ignorant, barbaric attitude, all in the name of inconvienance, drowns out every other position they hold. They have no credibility and thier pandering to self indulgent, unambitious, self entitled fringes of society is a futile attempt to appear as a compassionate righteous movement on the world stage. However, it is nothing more than sacrificing human life to the god of inconvienamve rather than Molek. ed 44 WWW.AMERICAN CHRISTIAN VOICE.COM | VOL.14 #2
What is so bad about globalism? Drac Smith The larger the scale of administration & distribution the less voice any given individual has in their lives. The less control. If you are one voice in 1,000 you are far more likely to be heard than 1 voice in 3 billion. Your opinion and actions count considerably more. If a company is limited to a nation, and then does something which goes against that nation’s character there are real consequences for that company. An international company can make up sales in other nations for any transgressions while things blow over. Thus no consequences for poisoning people, insulting entire nations or otherwise being a bad corporate citizen. Each nation is it’s own social experiment and success is imitated and blended into other nations. If there is but one nation & culture there is no more experiment. The scale is too great for rapid changes which can occur in a nations, especially smaller nations or confederacies like the US where individual states are essentially their own nation. Globalism inflicts a uniform culture and values upon all infected by it. All the character and identity that is unique is lost so as to fit on the global stage. Globalism removes responsibility to community and nation from individuals and corporations. They are acting on behalf of the “world” which equates to their own best interests and have no one to answer too. If community X doesn’t like what they do, then they’ll move halfway across the world to a place that likes what they do or at least stays silent about sometimes brutal company policies. Globalism has repeatedly bred sweat shops all over the world. Conditions that Western nations would NEVER tolerate for workers, but it’s excused as it’s globalism at work. Globalism harms nations by wreaking havoc with their economy. It makes the rich richer because they are putting small regional, local and national business out of biz. The global resources available make it impossible to compete even if the Globalist company provides a much lower quality produce/service. Thus wealth becomes even more concentrated. The larger the scale the more capital and resources are required to start up an enterprise and compete with existing players. This reduces competition which degrades quality and increases price. Globalism creates gigantic bureaucracies. All organizations are prone to corruption and inevitably succumb to it. The larger the organization the greater the effects corruption have upon individuals and the more difficult it is to reform, dislodge or disassemble the organization. Globalism harms the environment. Shipping alone has produced more CO2 than all of the cars in the US combined on a given day. One single cargo ship produces as much emissions as a medium sized US city. When you have hundreds feeding products halfway across the world you have introduced a tremendous amount of pollution, expended staggering amounts of resources on transportation alone. Worse, globalism has pushed Western industry outside of pollution controls into nations with little or no pollution control. So poor Asians are using the same pan they fry dinner with to recover lead from circuit boards and Africans are burning huge amounts of toxic materials to recover trace metals contained in them. Factories that used to be mild polluters are driven overseas and now have NO pollution restrictions. Toxins dumped by them eventually drift back to the Western nations that pushed them out. Globalism destroys the unifying force between citizens of a nation. They no longer have that umbrella that makes them brothers and sisters. National boundaries instead become nothing more than a location and a formality. This destroys the allegiance necessary to create a functional social order. Everyone is battling for the same piece of the pie that used to be big enough for everyone when we remembered what one does affects all. The world is just too big a scale to be brother and sister with everyone. We psychologically need rivalries, friends and enemies. While many Utopian schemes believe everyone would be happy and singing in 3 part harmonies if there was no strife, it’d be a boring and lackluster world. A horrible thing to experience. Enforced equality would drain our souls and march us to the beat of exponentially lower standards. Conflict and strife in reasonable measures inspire us, fire our souls and give us opportunities to be our best. Think of it this way. Would you play a video game where you always won no matter what you did? That’s what a world without strife is like. You win but it’s totally empty and meaningless. What you win is a meager life where everyone shares an equal part of unending misery. TRUMP OBSERVATIONS This is not a prophecy because if I am wrong you are mandated by the Bible to take me out to the city gates and stone me to death. (seriously, we need to hold our “prophets” accountable, don’t you think? This is merely a “what if” scenario. If the dems take control of the house they will most assuredly “Trump” up evidence to impeach our president. If he was removed from office, Mike Pence, perhaps the most mature Christian to hold the post would take his place. Hmmmm. Even the worst case scenario is not a bad thing since President Trump blazed a trail for him to pass through and maintain. (Just saying) ed VOL.14 #2 | WWW.AMERICAN CHRISTIAN VOICE.COM 45
