Why has the world changed so much that we barely recognize it based on past experiences? – Heard of the Overton Window? Without us realizing it, the Overton Window shifts little by little, meaning that we are pommeled with narratives that gradually change what we accept without thinking…
Sounds like brainwashing. We are all victims to a degree. President Trump knows it, and that is why he keeps pointing fingers at “you guys back there” – the reporters of fake news. Narratives, a word that can’t be repeated enough, because YOU can help take control of the subjects we are fed! When you see mainstream flowing in the wrong direction, help divert it with your better knowledge.
It is understandable that many do not even want to see the vitriol going on in social media. For example, you now see people celebrating the thought of President Trump being assassinated! But should we just let that carry on without any common-sense input? The less we object to the hatred, the more it looks like it is okay and acceptable behavior to call for someone’s death. The framework of the Overton Window shifts. Remind those who have gone astray that political beliefs DO NOT justify violence!
Another example: A Christian can no longer pray openly without the risk of being arrested. Yet, at the same time Muslims, for example, can fill the streets, throw down their prayer mats, and pray to their god en masse in Times Square. Were they arrested for doing so? Here is an article from 2012: Muslim Speaker Reveals Details Of 20-Year Caliphate Plan For Europe And America There are plans in place that do not bode well for Christians. How far along are those plans today? The danger of a takeover is hardly lesser today than it was in 2012! How much have we unwittingly already accepted as part of life?
