The United States Declaration of Independence contains these words… "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Does “the pursuit of happiness” include forcing others to think a certain way? I think not. When we disagree, that needs to be okay. There are no two people who think exactly alike. If we all have the same beliefs this would be a very boring world. If we allow the government or a group of people to force a particular attitude then we will have lost our freedoms and become a communist country.
A very dangerous alternative to allowing people the "pursuit of happiness" is what we are seeing today with the "cancel culture". Cancel culture is an advanced form of “Political Correctness” which we have seen evolve. What is okay today, is not okay tomorrow. If someone speaking their beliefs can get them fired (or their business destroyed) that would lead us away from our creative nature and capitalism would be gone. We would then be a nation of hungry homeless people.
Every person has the right to have their own opinions. However, some want to force their opinion on everyone else by using fear, intimidation, and cancelation. I don’t know what country you are in while reading this, but in the United States, that is NOT how things are done. At least it wasn’t in the past.
Many of our politicians (and others) are trying to destroy our independence. They want us dependent on them because that makes us easier to control. It is always better for people to think for themselves and to take care of themselves rather than to rely on the government.
Something shifted when Donald Trump announced he was running for President of the United States. I believe the deep state (including most of the *Democrats) are so afraid of him that they have changed our culture into a “cancel culture”. If they don’t like something, they push to have it destroyed. Whether it’s someone’s life (e.g. Gen. Flynn, Roger Stone, etc.) or a business (e.g. MyPillow, Goya Foods, etc.) or YOU. Don’t be fooled… Twitter, FB, and YouTube are controlled by the same people that control the corrupt politicians! That is why they have the same message. If you dare to speak out, then your accounts on Twitter, FB, YouTube, etc. will be CANCELED.
An example of some of the dangers of cancel culture is heard during the election hearing in Michigan when a member of the committee asked the question... if there is so much election fraud why haven’t more people come forward? Melissa's response:
“I’ll tell you why. My life has been destroyed. My life has been completely destroyed because of this. I’ve lost family. I’ve lost friends. I’ve been threatened. My kids have been threatened. I’ve had to move. I’ve had to change my phone number. I’ve had to get rid of social media. Nobody wants to come forward. They’re getting threatened. Their lives are getting ruined. I can’t even get an actual job anymore because democrats like to ruin your lives, that’s why all right, just like they do to Trump.”
Before I published this article, "Big Brother" YouTube decided THEY don't want you to have access to the truth. The original video I linked to has been removed. I hunted down another one on Rumble that contains the quote. If you want to see it, the section for the quote referenced begins at 1:30:30. If you would like to hear the rest of her testimony, it begins at 1:05:48.
Michigan Hearing on Election Fraud
My observations have led me to the same conclusion that Melissa said. The *Democrats want to ruin the lives of anyone who sheds light on their corruption. The encouragement by the Democrat politicians, especially in the last year, has led to a small group of people “protesting” (many who are getting paid) by destroying property and businesses, beating people, and worse. I watched a video where an Antifa “protester”, in Portland, bragged about killing a man just because he supported President Trump. Did ANY Democrats condemn this behavior? If they did I didn’t hear about it. One example of the Democrat attitude is displayed in Maxine Waters’ speech when she said “…let them know they are not welcome here anymore”. To hear what she said, click the link below.
And a Kamala Harris-backed organization paid the bail for rioters who were arrested multiple times. (Click the below link to see the article.)
Man twice bailed out by Kamala Harris-backed fund — gets arrested again
The Democrat politicians did not condemn ANY violence before the January 6th Capital incident. (We are not being told the whole truth about that either.) We currently have members of congress trying to get cable companies to remove Fox News, Newsmax, and One America News Network from their lineup. Is this not government censorship? The first amendment in our Bill of Rights requires that government NOT interfere with free speech. (Click the below link to see the article.) Don't let their language fool you. They say they want the truth to be told, but they are doing everything in their power to HIDE THE TRUTH!
In addition to not allowing truth to be told via social media or news outlets, the Democrats are trying to make it against the law to call people who are in this country illegally “illegal aliens”, or to use the terms “him”, “her”, “she”, “he”.
Now they are canceling six of the Dr. Seuss books. Where will it stop? I will tell you, if something doesn’t change, it won’t. They will continue to go after EVERYONE who does not agree with THEM! You may agree with them today, but what about tomorrow. They change what they think sometimes daily, or hourly. Beware, YOU MAY BE NEXT.
After closely watching our government the last five years, it has never been more obvious that most in our government do NOT uphold our constitution as they swore to do, but instead, they are ripping it to shreds. Nancy Pelosi ripping up President Trump’s beautiful SOTU speech last year was a symbol of what they think of The United States of America and our great Constitution and “we the people” especially anyone who serves Yeshua (Jesus).
Don’t listen to their words, watch their actions. They pretend to believe in Jesus so we will think they are on our side. Like when Pelosi said “I’m catholic” because she was offended when someone commented about her hating President Trump. (Does anyone hate President Trump more than Pelosi? I doubt it.) Rather than listen to her declaration of “faith”. Watch what she does and the lies she spews. That is more telling than any declaration of being part of a particular religion.
What many don’t realize is that when thought-policing begins, anything THEY deems as wrong will be punished. Who decides what those thoughts should be? Then the very thoughts that were once touted as required are later labeled wrong and punished.
This country has the most freedoms and more opportunities (for all races) than any other country in the world. But if powerful people get their way, we will look like Venezuela. Socialism ALWAYS turns into communism. I don’t know about you, but I have NO desire to live in a country where the government dictates everything I do, say, and especially what I think. If that is what you want, then move. There are plenty of places for you to go. But there is no other place like the U.S.A.
* DISCLAIMER: In all my articles (including this one), when I refer to “Democrats” or “Republicans” I am talking about the politicians, not the everyday people.
