From bondage comes spiritual faith.
From spiritual faith comes courage.
From courage comes liberty.
From liberty comes abundance.
From abundance comes complacency.
From complacency comes apathy.
From apathy comes dependency.
From dependency comes bondage.
– Alexander Tytler

Is bondage America’s next stop in the cycle of history?

The Ms.

Not if we wake up!

We need to revert back to Courage and Liberty and restart before the libs and the progressive/socialist/c*******ts drive us further into apathy and dependence. If not, you young-ins' will see bondage in your live time. It is starting to happen right now with unreasonable unnecessary mandates.

It’s been said that the average republic or pure democracy rarely lasts for more than 200 years. We’ve been in existence for almost 250 years. We’re overdue unless we turn back to God.

I repeat:

1. From bondage comes spiritual faith
2. From spiritual faith comes courage
3. From courage comes liberty
4. From liberty comes abundance
5. From abundance comes complacency
6. From complacency comes apathy
7. From apathy comes dependency
8. From dependency comes bondage
– Alexander Tytler

The study of Tytler's analysis can be sobering. A great many Americans, myself included, are inclined to feel we're at stage #7 and rapidly closing in on #8 fast. Surely you would think that even the Americans who have placed their guy in the White House must see some of the danger signs. The Biden/Harris administration has declared war on religion. The Biden/Harris regime is criminalizing political dissent. There are way too many Americans who live only on government assistance and handouts. Our borders are being overrun by i*****l i*******ts for whom there are no jobs. And when there is work for i******s, it certainly pushes down the wages of the poor working-class Americans already legally here. Our nation's capital has been barricaded, bordered up, and beefed up with soldiers who are there to shoot fellow Americans. Lincoln did not even order this during the Civil War. And half of America does not believe the e******n results. We now in some ways resemble Germany of the early 1930s.

Progressives might call this the "new normal." Patriots would call it bondage. The new McCarthyism from the Left has made some patriots prisoners in their own land. Increasingly, patriots are being cancelled out of their own society. Books are burned, authors are silenced, and careers are destroyed. Churches are shuttered in this new normal. This new Supreme Court has no credibility with half of America, which now believes the Supreme Court is comprised of cowards, the c*********d, or crooks. The late Milton Friedman famously said that America can either have a society with a welfare safety net for the less fortunate, or a borderless country without laws restricting immigration, but not both. That is exactly what the Biden/Harris administration is trying to do right now. It is almost as if they are trying to bring us to financial ruin and economic collapse on purpose. One must wonder if those in power are taking direct instructions from China. The French student of democracy Alexis de Tocqueville once said long ago of America that "America is a great country because America is good." But once they cease to be good, they will no longer be great. This is an ominous warning, even from the French. When we have to take moral guidance lessons from the French, we’re in trouble.

Tytler continued to say that neither republics nor pure democracies last for more than 200 years for one simple reason. Tytler explained that, "It only exists until the v**ers discover that they can v**e themselves largess from the public treasury." Once the v**ers realize this, they only v**e into office those politicians who give them free stuff without the need to work for it. This causes economic and eventual national collapse, and a dictatorial totalitarian government replaces the republic.

Tytler's words of wisdom are good for a Chamber of Commerce, an AP History class, and a Sunday School class to hear and ponder. Congress in particular should study Tytler's eight stages. November 4th, 2020 was a disastrous day in American history. And the days that followed J****** 6th, 2021, might even prove to be far worse and longer lasting. America is now in her 245th year of existence. One must wonder, unless we can change things around dramatically, rapidly, and extensively (and God heals our land); if we are living on borrowed time. Sir Alexander Tytler believed that we are.

We are truly reaching that point were we are going to have to "shoot the bastards and start over." These c*******ts and c*******t wannabes have no idea of the destruction they are reaping upon America. These younger ones will live in mediocrity for the rest of their lives. All incentive to work and get ahead, and make America along with all those around them, great again, is lost to their constant and through brainwashing. Equity of outcome is like an acchor for those with the incentive to seek greatness and strive for it. That brings all of those around you to strive for greatness also. And with that, the whole country. But achieving equity at the point of holding back the best of the best so that the worst of the worst can stay equal is a recipe for disaster. America, was and should be, about the chance for everyone to make their own decisions to work, study and strive for greatness; or just strive to pay your way and raise a good family with good studious intelligent kids and giving them that opportunity. But these socislist policies create mediocrity, begging for those that are industrious to pay for their total lack on initiative or will to succeed or prosper. The country can't survive like that and be anything but a third world s**t hole trying to find enough toilet paper at the supermarket.

L*****ts that disagree, and you all do, tell me how your CRT and 1619 history, and g****r studies, and a pussyfied military will keep America out of being a subject of China, and you all dirt poor s***es working in a factory making cell phones for the Chinese at s***e labor wages. It is your future. I'm old and might have to go down fighting. You don't have the guts.

The Ms.

Very true my friend…. I will go down fighting with you!!!! No, they don’t get it, don’t want to know….. but we know….and they will learn a tough lesson! So Be IT ! We will fight for t***h…. Let them save themselves or lose it all. D**gon Blessings 🐲🐲🐲

You have to give it away…..So They Say… let em…. Because I Say! This is a battle long time in the making and MUST BE fought! Those founders wrote the Constitution for a time like NOW….. when “We The People” have a means to communicate and if need be defend ourselves!! Justice moves slowly…. Let it play out! BYW: has anyone noticed I am the girl here? Just wondering 🐲🐲🐲
