Thanks for a great summary John D. I'm glad I found this Substack!
I used to think D bad, R good. After 2020 I realized that there are very few on the side of God in public office at any level. Even a guy like Mike Johnson who claims to be a devout Christian now seems to be playing for the other side.
Thank you for including the degradation of men as an important part of our cultural dismantling. By neutralizing men all other attempts to degrade our culture are made much easier. What most don't know is that feminism was not a typical grass roots type of movement, it was actually a well funded by the likes of the Rockefeller Foundation and others. The openly stated goal was to ruin the American family and they knew that in order to do that they had to devalue men. What better way to do that then to blame men for every possible female hangnail?
The attacks on men are what I have been writing about for many years. It's a sad story.
The domestic violence industry is a good way to track some of this. Who was the sponsor of the original bill. Biden. It created a billion dollar a year boon doggle that blamed men for just about everything and paid women to be victims. Not to minimize true domestic violence, it does exist but is a far cry from the bill and the female only programs put into place. A part of the billion dollars was and is the "training" of judges, lawyers, therapists etc into the anti male nonsense. Anyone who looked at the research available even in 1994 when the first federal bill passed would see that the violence was pretty much 50-50 but the bill and the marching orders were all about making men the problem and making them pay.
GOoD vs dEvil. All started before this age and is the cause making this atonement human age necessary. Born innocent of the "foreknowledge." Yes! Poorly taught in (controlled) schools, due largely by the poorly and falsely taught in HIS House. From there politics, business, finance, and information control are much easier. Deception is rampant in each. Once people are fooled (again) there is little concern of them asking the RIGHT questions. And, with that, the dEvil (vagabond) family exerts more influence.
Fear Not! This was foretold. All is in HIS Control. Have you read? The Prophets wanted to live in this time to witness what we are living now and is coming fast. Stop playing church. Make HIM Happy and study!
Darius: Yes Good vs Evil is from day one. However, there are several things going on now that are unprecedented. For example, the Internet gives ability for Evil to propagate extremely fast, to millions of people. For example, AI makes is very difficult to segregate Truth from Fiction. For example, our schools have become vehicles to purposefully undermine parental standards in children (think SEL). Etc.
True and a piece or part of the beast (system) that rises from the sea (nations by the designed turmoil) ridden by the great whore Babylon (confusion / deception) to govern the world making ready the way for the son of perdition's grand appearance that will be for a short time. How many have been taught they will fly away even though scripture plainly says the elect are to stand against the big lie / liar claiming, very convincingly, that he is the Savior even GOD? Beware of the super preachers and that kind. Religion is the liar's favorite tool, then financial, education, politics and all those overlapping components (pillars) of society. Amazing to see this happening.
Fantastic. Amazing how few, especially white males stand up to notice that they are under represented in our current culture media. When they are—it is in submissive, unimportant and derogatory ways. But it’s complete crickets out there with the men. At a minimum—do not support this media with your dollar.
These are mostly if not all due to the neo-Marxist march through the institutions. They have all largely been captured. Decades of not paying attention has brought us to this point.
Usually I like your article very much. But I am shocked to read you describe Russia as a Communist country in the first section.
China is a bona fide communist regime. But Russia IS NOT. She is not the same as the Soviet Russia anymore. The United States under the Deep State government is an evil regime. It’s sad to admit the truth. That is the real reason we need President Trump to change that. Look at Speaker Mike Johnson who is supposedly a “Christian”. But what Johnson is doing in the House as if he actually worships Satan if we judge him by his fruits.
If Russia were a communist country now, what is your evidence? Well, we have been told by the same “pundits” in the main stream media, which also tell us Trump is a traitor due to “Russia collusion”. Regardless, I would like to learn from you where you have got the proofs that Russia is a communist regime.
I sincerely hope you will think about my question and enlighten me with your research.
"At the polls, every voter is handed a ballot on which appears the name of a single candidate for each office. The role of the voter is simply to drop the ballot in the box. While all nominees are not necessarily Communists themselves, the Communist Party will have approved or selected each one." and
"Lack of separation of powers, however, creates little confusion in practice, since the entire machinery of government is subordinated to the single control of the Communist Party."
IMHO no matter what they choose to call it — or portray it as — in reality is more of a Communist country than anything else.
Except for Donald Trump and very few others we would then qualify as Communist because for decades now all we've had in the illusion of choice IMO. Maybe a few with actual good intentions slip through the cracks and make it to DC but they don't last long...either blackmailed into compliance or worn out by the system or whatever.
The uniparty destruction of the Tea Party and the rotten treatment of Donald Trump just made it too obvious who we've got controlling DC: thieves conducting the biggest heist in world history.
@John Droz jr. Did you send me the right link? I glanced through it for a Quick Look and I didn’t find any factual analysis of the CURRENT Russia.
One of the most important aspects of Communist regimes is that they also export “proletariat revolutions” all over the world. Please tell me what Russia has been doing in the 21st century.
Of course, I know history of the bloody Bolshevik revolution that created the Soviet Union. But it’s over in case you have forgotten
As for the voting freedom, you know America is currently under the control of an unelected criminal president and his party more in detail than 99.9% of the citizens. Furthermore, there is no way any other candidates can win the elections except Democrats.
Do you classify the USA as a fake democracy in reality?
The USA has been engaged in wars all over the world since Bill Clinton, with President Donald Trump as the only EXCEPTION. But Trump will be most likely put in jail by the mobs.
I agree with you IF you can present any factual evidence.
I don’t by any chance negate what you have accomplished in your brilliant efforts in your multifaceted work as far as I can see. But it doesn’t mean your perception of the world is NOT going to affect your analysis. It will.
No doubt there are still many problems in Russia. But how about some key facts relevant to this discussion?
Christianity (the Russian Orthodox Church) is honored and respected by the Russia Constitution. Russia is a Christian nation. We cannot say America is a Christian country anymore. (The young people on college campuses remind me that the United States is actually a colony of HAMAS. )
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the life-long anti-communist Russian philosopher and author, is officially honored by Vladimir Putin in state ceremonies. If Russia is heavily influenced by Communism since 2000, Solzhenitsyn would have been insulted and ridiculed and his books banned.
The Communist Party of Russia has got less than 5% of votes in the most recent presidential election in 2024. Communists got weak support which hovered around 15% consistently since 2000. In contrast, the American Communist Party (aka the Democratic Party) has been garnering roughly 50% of votes for decades.
These are facts which you can check independently.
I sincerely hope you can examine who are the people informing you that Russia is currently heavily influenced by Communism. I Aren’t they the same people who insist Russia collusion and Trump and his supporters will destroy America’s democracy?
YMM: I hate to be spending so much time on a very minor point of this commentary — so will graciously delete the Russia reference. That said, no matter what Russia call itself today, they are VERY heavily influenced by communist and Marxist ideologies.
Man does not have wisdom. Wisdom stems from asking for guidance from our All knowing Creator. Solomon asked for the gift of an understanding heart. This is something we should all ask for. We should not sit in judgment. Even our Creator does not judge us...our own soul's are the silent witness within, which bears testimony as to how we have lived...and where we go next time. Too many sit in judgment of others...and this is erroneous thinking. The most important thing we can do is establish a loving relationship with our Creator. This is what I got from reading Matthew 6:5.
We are in deep trouble, because of the so-called technological advancement, which is about to destroy humanity. The only answer is for mankind to turn to the source of all wisdom and knowledge...or all life will be gone. I saw this, when I was eleven years old
on the cover of Superman.... Krypton blowing up! Why? These people were very advanced, weren't they? .....and their planet blew up into smithereens.
john-- agree with most of what you've said, except part of this:
"The Big Picture is that Communists (e.g., Russia and China) and their allies (including those within the US) are in stark opposition to Democracies (e.g., the US, Europe, etc.). Put another way, the No-God forces on this planet are in a life-and-death war against the Pro-God forces."
i agree with what you're saying about pro-god vs no-god. i dont agree with what you're saying about democracy, communism and europe
marx and lenin both envisioned communism as the ultimate democracy, where wealthy capitalists were defeased of all influence. stalin? no. but even mao was supportive of democracy. what do you think the cultural revolution was? that was robust democracy
communism is a belief in a fictitious social and a belief that the social is a kind of person that can get better or worse and that you are obligated to help
so you're right about europe being democratic, but you're wrong about it not being communist. nearly every point you made about the viral madness going around makes a big showing in europe. europe has been thoroughly communist since world war II. the berlin wall did not separate communism from capitalism. it separated a really bad kind of dictatorship from another kind of dictatorship that wasnt quite as bad, one that has now evolved into the EU, which is a dictatorship of secular humanists who believe oil somehow hurts the social and a whole lot of other crazy stuff
the basic idea of your article is correct. the communist revolt against reality is happening in the US, as it has been for a long time. it started kind of slowly with mandatory 'education', women's suffrage, prohibition, WWII and the invasion of women into men's workspaces (justified because of a believed need to help europe). then, after the birth control pill, the process accelerates so quickly it's hard to account for all the major events
my point is: europe sucks and is not on america's side in any way. trump says the US should stay in NATO as long as europe pays its fair share. maybe he thinks europe will never pay its fair share, and he may be right about that, but it would be better if he said the US should get out of NATO and the UN because NATO and the UN are enemies of the truth
RBX: I agree that some "Democracies" have fallen on hard times — think Canada. IMO a large contributor of these degredations are socialist/Marxist influence.
In the book that is entitled "The Psychology of Totalitarianism," Professor of Clinical Psychology Mattias Desmet reveals that, in his scientific research, he has discovered that a "mass formation" of individuals who mistake "complex" for "non-complex" physical systems is a precursor to totalitarian rule. This misbelief leads these individuals to base public policies upon models of non-complex systems that provide a false and misleading picture of reality. Thus, amongst the critical thinking skills that should be imparted to a student of philosophy is to avoid this mistake. To make this mistake is to adopt a "mechanistic-materialistic world view," according to Prof. Desmet.
My only disagreement is that I think Bitcoin is a reaction, or even cure, to the destruction of the currency, not a cause or reason.
TBL: I think arguments could be made for both sides...
Thanks for a great summary John D. I'm glad I found this Substack!

My: Yes. Regretfully, several of the above problems are not getting sufficient attention.
These are mostly if not all due to the neo-Marxist march through the institutions. They have all largely been captured. Decades of not paying attention has brought us to this point.
John: Agreed. And if we do not fight for opur rights, they will slowly be extracted...
I’m a counter puncher. When my woke detector goes off I respond.
Too much John. My reaction F…. Em!
John: It is a lot, but trying to ignore it will lead to a disaster.

Sorry that you are "shocked" that my general categorization of Russia, is that it is basically a communist country.
FYI, here is a reasonable overview <https://www.historians.org/about-aha-and-membership/aha-history-and-archives/gi-roundtable-series/pamphlets/em-46-our-russian-ally-(1945)/how-is-russia-governed>. Among other things it says:
"At the polls, every voter is handed a ballot on which appears the name of a single candidate for each office. The role of the voter is simply to drop the ballot in the box. While all nominees are not necessarily Communists themselves, the Communist Party will have approved or selected each one." and
"Lack of separation of powers, however, creates little confusion in practice, since the entire machinery of government is subordinated to the single control of the Communist Party."

Margarita: Socialism has definstely taken hold in the US — and that is a just a short subway stop from Communism.
