As I’ve been steeped in reading the story of salvation history, God’s great rescue of humanity from the early chapters of Genesis to the end of the Bible and on through to the here and now, it has confirmed a basic precept I had long learned to inject into my classroom lessons:
The power of contrast is a most potent educator.
RECENT
The Chaos Is Also an Agent of Good. Or, Narrative Warfare
This Is Not About R vs D. This Is About “C.O.C.” –And So Much More
As an aside, one must not read all of the Bible to see this, in addition to a litany of other realities about society. I am nearly finished the Book of Numbers, only the fourth book, and reading the Old Testament in order instead of just thematically in conjunction with the New is why I have shifted my work almost exclusively to big picture constructs like the Overton Window, the Hegelian Dialectic, the Streisand Effect, the Trolley Problem, the Samson Option, Teleology, and others. I thank those of you who read my work consistently, and not just lump me in with other “conservative” analysts, to see where and how I have worked to provide equally consistent takes on the world right now that include even people with very little knowledge of the details.
Because remember the details can be staged anyway, for that layered, mafia-style “plausibility of denial” thing we must keep in mind.
In other words, it’s a good guess those double agents you see in movies like Departed actually exist in real life.
It is also why I think America’s main enemy is an entity that is slowly but surely being revealed, largely through a fascinating cat and mouse information dissemination game on X between main posters like 1) Musk, Ramaswamy, Flynn, and RFK Jr; 2) “mid-range” high traffic digital soldiers like Ian Carroll and James Lindsay; and 3) We the People and the comment sections I frequently invite you to rabbit hole.
Trump is even involved, obviously, but he oscillates between the direct and the indirect, while even in the direct he is speaking through his self-described “weaves,” what I have dubbed a mastery of the double entendre. Vladimir Putin and other supposed boogeymen are also playing major roles.
The story, the narrative, the battlefield, has taken on a life of its own. And I’d like to think God is moving it in a certain way, both through the evil and through the good, in the spirit of St Paul’s Letter to the Romans when it says He works out all things for those who love him.
So much of this narrative is not about getting people ready for things like takeovers of Canada, Mexico, or Greenland. It’s about getting people primed to accept the process of kicking out the global enemy we keep talking about, eradicating the deep state that didn’t just start in 2015 or 2001 or 1963 or even 1913.
It’s also about getting people primed to understand who exactly is behind said deep state that history is, at this very moment, sifting through. Pay attention to where the spotlight is shone.
It’s been shone on Russia for a long time. Who was shining that light on Russia for so long? Who keeps bringing up Russia?
Why?
I’ve had a little bit of fun lately spotlighting the cartoonish nature of all of this, in particular several weeks back with a trilogy on our boy Joe Fudd. I mean, the thought finally stopped rubbing me in the realm of my cognitive dissonance, that if I truly believe the 2020 election was fake, then that means a whole lot of other ones have been fake, and that means very likely none of these systems or the people “voted” into them are legitimate in the first place. I realize it’s good and necessary to write about the details, don’t misunderstand me. Such is the nature of narrative warfare–the story the American people are seeing is usually more important than realities below the surface. That’s the point. So not everything I’m doing recently, admittedly, is helping nearly as much on certain levels as what many other commentators, including the ones here, are doing.
But still, try to conflate the takes I am offering with the more directed traditional ones. Because both are necessary. Besides, I’m sure I’ll be delving into that approach again soon enough.

Breaking free from that spectacle of sorts, or at least to a greater degree, again largely because of my chronological reading of the Bible, has both freed me from trying to understand it all and shoved me right back into a new sort of prison where I want to contribute new analysis from week to week but also don’t want to help take us down a road we’ve been down for decades concerning this side and that side in Washington.
Like the shift of “conservatism” over the decades to not even blink twice at concepts that were being established after the 1930s, the Great Depression, and World War II–to the point where current conservatism would have been considered wildly liberal back then–I fear conservatism is doing something similar, in that too many are again latching on to preferred figureheads and any- and everything they say.
For instance, there is a budding new term out recently–the “Woke Right.”
I remember being ridiculed right here nearly five years ago for some articles challenging the Covid narrative. “Tinfoil hat” was a part of the pejorative employed. A lot of conservatives who dare not admit it now were in that camp. Fast-forward to 2025 and now everyone knew it all along. It is an example of the Overton Window shifting in our favor and why it would be wise to at least start considering some of the alternative viewpoints lots of people out there are presenting.

Remember one important point I have tried to make along the way–follow the story disseminated by the necessary recognizable central characters and what is being highlighted in order for We the People to dig for ourselves. Sometimes a Musk, for instance, will post something on X that he clearly doesn’t believe (because of what follows), for the precise reason of igniting a contrary response from one of the “middle-men” I mentioned above, for the precise reason to then say, as if inviting the truth, “What did I miss…”
It is so the American people fight for ourselves. It is the “plausible deniability” strategy being employed for the truth to emerge organically–from We the People and not our latest trusted hero none of us personally knows.
This is a component of the information war that goes back a long way. Gen Michael Flynn has done the same thing. Trump does it all the time, except he doesn’t directly engage as the Musks and Flynns have.
Throw a bone out there and let the dogs run wild down the rabbit hole in the comment section.
The battlefield involves us, is my point. I still think we as a celebrity culture are, yes, moving away from the celebrities in entertainment and sports but are simply transferring that addiction and habit to political talking heads.
Musk, Ramaswamy, Gabbard, RFK Jr, Hegseth–none of them, whenever and however they only periodically pop up on stage, is our savior. God loves us too much, and he covets our love and place in heaven too much, to allow us to look at any man or woman in this way.
I don’t even want you to believe me just because it’s me saying it. I want you to take both the black words and the white space of what I’m saying and go to the lab to think for yourselves–what patterns are continuing to happen here? What truths I’ve held for a long time are being challenged right now? Why is that? Why does this KEEP popping uP?
For the part of the most recent “President,” he did more to promote Donald Trump than Trump could have if he had been in the White House himself. I realize the last four years have hurt many, and I mean no disrespect or lack of compassion. But from a strictly psychological, sociological viewpoint where the mind control we’ve been under for decades (centuries?) is placed front and center, it would be difficult to argue that the contrast of Biden shone the brightest of lights possible not only on what Trump was in his first term, but the extent to which he needed to follow through on the supposed “extreme” aspects of his vision for America and the world.
Not to mention the absolute necessity of our part in the game.
In this way, there is one argument that says he was the best thing that could have happened for America–to change US.
To change us.
To change us.
Say to yourself over and over again until bedtime tonight.
It is why I support Trump but insist on not trusting him too. I’m not going to contribute to this “new” America that puts its hopes in any man or woman, because man and woman are both flawed. They can change. They are not static.
They can trick us, and have.
Support him because, yes, he seems incredible. Support him, yes, because he is the utter contrast of Joe Biden.
But don’t get trapped in that tribal thinking again to the point where we don’t realize the deep state can simply nudge the framework of Right v Left over just a tad, and then we’ll be doing this all over again, over and over again.
Remember history and politics after the 1930s and 1940s, and what they did “for our good.”
So, with all of that said, perhaps in a Trump “weave” fashion, thank you, Joe. You nearly single-handedly cultivated mass public mandate for the MAGA agenda in its purest sovereign form. You have made many a commentator wonder what button you actually pushed in that voting booth back in November, particularly considering Jill’s beautiful bright red outfit and your stunningly lucid address to the nation the next day after years of bumbling and stumbling. It was as lucid as what should now be every American’s understanding of exactly how rotten the swamp is and has been for a long time, of exactly how needless the office of the Presidency is in its current public presentation, of exactly how controlled we are by whatever foreign entity emerges as the true villain in all of this.
We couldn’t have done it without you.

May everyone named directly or referenced indirectly ask forgiveness and do penance for their sins against America and God. I fight this information war in the spirit of justice and love for the innocent, but I have been reminded of the need for mercy and prayers for our enemies. I am a sinner in need of redemption as well after all, for my sins are many. In the words of Jesus Christ himself, Lord forgive us all, for we know not what we do.
