How far we
have come in the last fifty years or so.
I remember some seventy years ago that it was so important to be able to
help your neighbor when he needed help.
I remember how important it was to treasure honesty, respect, hard work,
your parents, your family as a whole. I
remember being taught in grade (elementary) school to respect your teachers,
your country and your country’s flag, I remember being taught that it was wrong
to steal, to damage someone else’s property.
I Think history is important not only to see what we need to improve on
but also to see what things we blessed future with.
For the
majority of our society’s members those things are still a predominate part of
how we live our lives, how we make our choices.
Our silence as the majority, allowed the belief that those attributes no
longer exist in our society. According
to some of those folks in the media has diminished those attributes.to an almost
negligible percentage, According to our news and polls taken those values are
no longer respected.
Rather than
being ruled by the rule of law, we are we are watching a decline to a rule by
mob, perceived moral justice, and a muzzle on thought. We are no longer allowed to think outside the
box of “political correctness” and “virtue signaling”.
Those
screaming in the streets decry the acts of physical and psychological bully’s,
in schools and social media, they condone showing off their superior virtue by bullying
everyone they disagree with. We now see
many politicians openly prostrating themselves before the loudest, most
violent, disruptors. The art of protest
has been infiltrated by those who profit on the discord they can create within
our society.
The adage
“United we stand, divided we fall” shouts out the truth that the obverse is
just as loud.
