If the far-left wins, I give the U.S. no less than 10 years until it is dismantled. The U.S. will no longer be a country in 2030, but a disparate of several states, towns, or poleis with their own sovereignty. The far-left will initiate anti-capitalistic laws that will stifle competition, silence free-speech, highjack law enforcement, eliminate gun ownership, and limit churches to those who preach a pro-leftist agenda that’s in agreement to communistic ideals. They will also criminalize conservatives and traditionalists by fining or imprisoning people who adopt a “binary” view of human sexuality. It will enforce these agendas, as they are already doing, on all universities, education systems, organizations — those who do not will be eliminated and fined. This will then spark a reaction from people who are moderately liberal, center, or conservative. Rather than dialoguing with these groups, tomorrow’s far-left will falsely accuse this group as “alt-right.” There will be an online political demand to fence communities from one another: those who are pure vs. those who are impure.

This sounds dystopian and depressing. Am I being radical saying this? Maybe. But, maybe not.

Why do I believe this?

I believe this radical future because the far-left cannot compromise on any conservative, nor moderate, values because these “traditional” values are antithetical to their belief that in order to eliminate all impurity, these archaic views must be expunged because it goes against their vision of equality. As stated in many of their writings, they believe tradition stems from a “racist past that is inherently evil” (see 1619 project and DiAngelo’s book, White Fragility); and similar to a religious cult, compromise is impossible. As displayed by many of the current riots, their “fight for justice” will enable them to cause civil unrest and ruin people’s lives for the “sake of the underclass.” This religious zeal will enable them to demand that people be placed in categories: either submit to their agenda or be criminalized for their disobedience. Given that they will want to defund all law-enforcement, their fines will not be paid. But, to stop this inevitable reaction, they will decriminalize many convicts by blaming it on “systemic racism in a white justice system” and initiate a new police force (similar to Seattle’s CHAZ earlier this year). New officers will then populate jails with people who are deemed “untouchable and unable” to adopt with their new society — please note this has happened several times in the 20th century and it was Orwell’s greatest fear. People who protect or speak in favor of these untouchables will be chastised by social media, lose their employment, and fined as well. Churches will have to preach a social-justice message that emphasizes that people are irredeemably divided by race, sex, sexual preferences; each various grievance groups will have salvation only in their group of preference. But, any church that calls for “all people to repent” or that “all need salvation” will be forced to close down for its insensitivity. Note again: Biden and Harris have already pushed this language in their diversity vision (see: Diversity). These new laws will leave many in the U.S. with two options: live in fear or fight back.

Sadly, I believe this will be the U.S. in less than 10 years. But we don’t need to fight with violence as those in Portland. However, we are foolish if we think we can passively ignore what’s going to occur from the far-left. Therefore, we must stand up to them. We do it through writing, voicing why our freedoms of worship, speech, and liberty are essential entities that unite us as citizens; and not adopting that our world is built in such binary terms. Am I being binary in this blog post? Maybe. But, as a conservative-moderate, I want my liberal, conservative, old-school democrat, libertarian, and “non-caring” citizen to sharpen me. What I don’t want is for anyone to place me in an ideological camp of pure vs. impure or clean vs. unclean. In other words, I want a separation of church and state! and I do not want to join a religious community that the far-left is creating because I cannot believe nor adopt to their ideological claims. Therefore, I am deemed a leper in their eyes and as an enemy they want to silence. And if you doubt or question them dear friend, well they will want to silence you as well. So, if there is a binary I am creating here: it’s between a group that wants to silence and a group that wants to dialogue…in that sense, we can’t have both.

Therefore, we must voice our concerns and stand up to a new-left that wants all people to repent or be expunged. The new-left does not want compromise. Like the Joker in Batman the Dark Knight, they just want to see the world burn.

If we do not stand now, the Orwellian Dystopia described above will occur.

I hope I am wrong.

I am afraid I am not.
