Americans as a whole are not well-informed about politics, about the world around them, or about the changing culture. Part of it is due to the fact that they are busy with their lives, their jobs, and their families and just don’t have the time to read news from varied sources or look beyond what is paraded before them on television. And part of it, most of it, is the determined effort by leftists to portray America as they wish it to be seen, as it best fits their narrative, and not as it really is. And mainstream media parrots their talking points and usually ignores the truth, often, as in the case of the Hunter Biden laptop just before the 2020 election, deliberately reporting what they know is a lie. In that case, they dismissed the laptop story as Russian misinformation in collusion with the Trump camp, even though they knew, as everyone now knows, that the laptop was even then in the hands of the FBI and was very much Hunter Biden’s laptop, filled with incriminating evidence that may well have swayed the election against his father. But the truth does not matter when it comes to winning votes for the Democrat Party!
In the summer of 2020, major cities around the country exploded when George Floyd, a black criminal who was high on fentanyl at the time, died in police custody. The policeman who held the drug crazed man in a department-approved neck restraint for what seemed like a long time, but which the coroner said did not cause his death, was nonetheless later convicted of murder by a no doubt intimidated jury. Black Lives Matter and Antifa led the riots that caused millions of dollars in damages to small businesses owned mostly by — black business owners, while they and the Democrats screamed loudly that police hunted young black men to kill them. “Defund the police!” they cried, and many cities did. But what is the truth?
The truth is that blacks make up 12.4% of the population according to the 2020 census yet young black men commit 52.6% of the murders and manslaughters and 54.5% of the robberies according to the FBI. And when they are apprehended by the police, they often resist arrest armed with weapons that endanger the lives of the police and those around them. This is why the percentage of blacks shot by police seems statistically higher than their percentage of the population. In actual fact, a white man is far more likely to be shot by a policeman during an arrest than a black man simply because the policeman fears that he will be accused of murdering the black man if he shoots one in self-defense who then dies. This danger does not exist with a white criminal. No one cares if a white criminal dies at the hands of the police. It rarely even makes the newspaper.
Why do so many young black men commit crimes? Why is the murder rate in the black neighborhoods of Chicago so high year after year? Because while 74.3% of white children under 18 live in a home with two parents, only 38% of black children do. In a one parent household, the single parent may be working when the children get home from school, leaving them free to get into mischief in the neighborhood. In addition, most of those children live in homes with no father figure to teach them how to act, so the boys take their cues from the gang members and drug sellers in their flashy cars and with their guns. But these are not the figures that the Democrats want you to know. They want to portray these black young men as victims of white supremacy, not victims of decades of poorly managed cities by both black and white Democrats!
As far as the changing American culture is concerned, it is changing only in the minds of the leftists and the Democrats. But they convince others that it is through the media. Commercials, movies, and television shows are now filled with bi-racial couples, lots of black actors, Muslims, gays, and transgenders. An upcoming Disney movie, geared for children, will feature a kiss between two characters of the same gender. It is all designed to make us believe, and especially the children, that the world we live in is filled with myriads of bi-racial couples and blacks as well as gays, transgenders, and others from the alphabet mix that is the LGBTQ. . . . . world. But that is actually not the case.
YouGov, an international research data and analytics group headquartered in London for America, did a survey that yielded some interesting results.
TV commercials and even Hallmark movies give the perception that a significant minority of couples are interracial. But the actual amount is only 10%. Remember also that interracial includes not just a white/black couple but a white/Asian, black/Asian, white/native American and so on.
Commercials, movies, and television shows now are so populated with blacks that most Americans in the survey thought that they make up 41% of the population. Blacks themselves believe they make up 52% of the population. But as I mentioned earlier, in the 2020 census, blacks only make up 12.4% of the actual population!
Americans believe that Muslims make up 27% of the population. In fact, there are fewer than 1% of Muslims in the United States.
First generation immigrants imagine that they make up 40% of adult Americans and even non-immigrants guessed there are around 31% of them. Yet only 14% of adult Americans are first-generation immigrants.
Much is made by the Left about transgenders. Schools in some liberal areas are giving gender transforming drugs to children at school without the knowledge or consent of their parents. In some places laws are being passed or being considered which would make it child abuse for a parent NOT to allow their underage child to undergo a gender change that is not only a fantasy but that may well be harmful to their health. They argue that these children are not comfortable with the sex (male or female) which God gave them and must be allowed to transition to the sex they feel they were “meant” to be in order to live happy and fulfilled lives.
And in fact, a condition known as gender dysphoria does exist which makes those children suffering from it feel as if they are uncomfortable being who they are. But contrary to hype of the Democrats, only 0.005 to 0.014% of children actually suffer from this condition. In addition, 94% of them grow out of it by puberty, and those who do not can be helped to adjust through counseling.
Americans have a flawed view of our culture, perpetuated by those who want to keep us divided and distrustful. A unified people, the “melting pot” that America has always been, can work together to make a better world, to maintain our freedoms, to ensure our security. But a divided and distrustful America is fertile ground for Democrats. They inflate the numbers and importance of minority groups in the eyes of everyone and insist they have rights which impinge upon the freedoms of the majority of Americans. And when conservative point out that their numbers are wrong, that transgender is a lie that is destroying countless innocent lives, they are condemned as Nazis and evil destroyers of DEMOCRACY.
One by one people have lost their jobs for daring to say publicly that a man cannot transform himself into a woman. It is a scientific impossibility. There are biologically only two human sexes: male and female. The female has two X chromosones while the male has an X and a Y. She can bear children. He cannot. Their skeletal structures are different. Their muscles, heart, and lungs, are different. They even think differently. In 1992, author John Gray wrote a book entitled Men Are From Mars; Women Are From Venus to help explain the different ways in which their minds work. But to state these scientific facts to the “Party of Science” is deemed “hate speech” and companies are bombarded with emails by a small group of activists who, through repeated emails appear to be a large group of dissidents, and eventually cause the companies to fire the employees. (When this happened to Rush Limbaugh, his staff was able to follow the emails back to their source and discovered they all, despite their attempt at hiding their tracks, came from a group of ten individuals in a single small leftist organization.)
So, why do Democrats do this? Power. Democrats, as we have seen in the last year have little of benefit to offer this country. Thus, they try to divide us into waring groups, mostly pitted against the Republicans. During the previous administration we lived in prosperity. We were energy independent for the first time in decades, making use of the oil and gas reserves that lie beneath our soil. Real unemployment was lower than it had been in years with record unemployment for women, Hispanics, and blacks. People were confident that their lives were improving and that they would be better off in a year than they were then. Countries were paying their fair share of their own defense and trade agreements had been renegotiated to be fair to Americans. Several Arab countries signed accords with Israel. The world was at peace.
But under the Democrats we went from an oil producer to an oil importer overnight on the first day Biden was in office. Gas prices and propane and natural gas prices for winter heating soared. Biden poured money, much of it printed by the treasury (thereby devaluing the dollar even more) into the economy- – COVID relief funds, extended unemployment, extra money per child through the end of 2021. He issued mask and vaccination mandates which were mostly invalidated by the courts, but not until myriads of people across the country lost their jobs for refusing to comply. A supply chain crisis left empty spaces on store shelves and new car lots empty of vehicles until nearly the start of 2022. Used car prices went up by over 40% from a year ago. A disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan ended with Afghanis in the U.S. who have no reason to be here and could well be terrorists while hundreds, perhaps thousands of American citizens and special visa holders were abandoned in Afghanistan. Putin, in the void of the strong leadership we had under President Trump, has invaded the Ukraine, which produces a lot of the world’s fertilizer. Thus, we are now facing famine in some countries this summer and certainly much higher food prices in the U.S. and yes, perhaps some food shortages as well. Inflation is soaring. Americans are spending $100 a week more than they were a year ago.
But why should we be surprised? How well have Democrats managed California? High crime in the cities, criminals released with no bail, homeless camping on the sidewalks and littering them with used needles, urine and feces. High taxes. High cost of living. Or we could look at Chicago where the state periodically has to admonish the school system to clean up its act because the schools are so poor, and where crime is so bad that it has spread from the usual handful of shootings per weekend in the black neighborhoods to violent car jackings elsewhere in the city. Major Lightfoot explains that it is because the young criminals are not getting enough love at home.
Democrats are only interested in their own power. They make big promises, but they never follow through on them. They are actually afraid of conservatives, because we are steadfast in our beliefs in America, in her Constitution, in the freedoms that it protects. But if they can make us feel overwhelmed by groups who are hostile to us, groups that they make hostile to us by telling them that we are homophobic, racist, transphobic, then perhaps we will cower at home and not go to the polls. If we are facing 41% of the population who are black and 27% who are Muslim and 7% who are LBGTQ, all of whom will vote Democrat because they have been told Republicans hate them, that leaves just 25% Republicans left to vote! What is the use?
But of course, the numbers are actually only 12.4 %, less than 1%, and 7% and some of them have not bought into the Democrat propaganda. Some of them, an increasing number of them, are Republicans. So, take heart, Republicans! Don’t believe what you hear! We are not vastly outnumbered! Nearly half of blacks and Hispanics alike currently disapprove of the job Biden is doing and many of them along with other Democrats are finding that the Republican Party is the party of the everyday man and woman rather than of the rich east and west coast elites!
