The phrase, “facts don’t care about your feelings,” has been spoken by liberty loving conservatives and patriots in response to the woke media and cancel culture since it was made popular by Ben Shapiro back in (or around) 2017.
While absolutely, positively, 100% true… and while it really should be something we keep in mind for ourselves…
It’s not a good way to influence average, everyday individuals and win them to our side.
“We see the world, not as it is, but as we are - or, as we are conditioned to see it.” -Stephen R. Covey
The Marxists figured out a long time ago that every single human being has a great big sign on their forehead that says, “make me feel special,” and has used that to their advantage.
We are not robots, we are human beings with real emotions and real feelings...
…and those feelings can be manipulated and validated in such a way that reconditions us to exchange the truth for a lie.
For decades, American society as a whole has generally been conditioned into believing that we’ll never be attacked on our own soil, that our government can be trusted, and the tail will never wag the dog.
Supposedly, that’s stuff only happens in the movies.
We’re living in The Matrix and most people are completely oblivious… still enslaved and plugged into the system.
If you’re still reading this, chances are you are already engaged and have already been red-pilled…
But how do we engage others and red-pill them?
I can tell you this… not by “owning” them in an argument.
While that may make US ”feel” good, it’s pushed the other person away even further, and now they’re digging in their heels even more into the lie.
We may “feel” justified in OUR actions, but the fact is that being combative in a conversation just doesn’t work.
Need proof?
Imagine being approached by a salesman that is trying to sell you a new vitamin that is guaranteed to make you feel 25 again, but with better judgment.
You’re skeptical, and so the salesman gives you a free sample and shows you all the testimonials of others who have used the product.
For your own reasons, you’re still skeptical… and that salesman says to you, “Are you blind? It works, I’ve proven to you that it works, even gave you a free sample… it’s a no brainer… only a fool can see this isn’t a great deal.”
So you say, “I just don’t feel this is the right product for me.”
And so the salesman looks at you and says, “facts don’t care about your feelings.”
Is there any chance of you buying now?
Absolutely not.
Why?
Because 1) you’ve been conditioned to be cautious of salesman and 2) the salesman just totally disregarded your concerns and objections and insulted you.
He doesn’t really care about you… he just wants to earn his commission.
He was combative, and being combative in a conversation just doesn’t work.
That’s a fact.
Disagree with me?
Well…
“Facts don’t care about your feelings.”
Ouch.
My point is this…
If we’re going to win this culture war, we MUST recognize that the system has been rigged to divide US - the American people.
Right vs Left
Republican vs Democrat
Black vs White
Christian vs Others
Woke vs Awake
We’ve got to start actually caring about our fellow citizens, gaining influence on a personal level, and start incrementally opening their eyes to what our government is doing.
It will not be easy… and it won’t happen overnight... but in the end it will be worth it if we’re willing to put in the dang work.
Are you ready?
Now let’s go take our country back.

For decades, we've held our noses to vote for RINOs like Dan Crenshaw, August Pfluger, and Kevin McCarthy... the lesser of two evils... and how's that worked out for us?

It is commonly said in politics that “you’re either with us or against us.”
While framing a fight as “us or them” is a rhetorically powerful way to raise the emotional stakes for commitment, such an attitude distorts reality by unnecessarily creating enemies out of potential allies.
It also runs in complete contradiction to the Word of God.
Let me set the stage. The disciples of Jesus had been out and about in the countryside and they saw people they did not know performing miracles in the name of Jesus. So they told Jesus—no doubt hoping to earn accolades from their Teacher—that they had tried to stop these people.
They got something else, instead.
“Do not stop him, for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me,” said Jesus.
Pay attention to the next 11 words, found in Mark 9:30. “For the one who is not against us is for us.”
The political world says, “If you aren’t for us, then you are against us.”
But Jesus says, “The one who ...
Monday night I was the guest speaker at the Montgomery County Tea Party and I brought a guest of my own... good friend, Ron Bloomingkemper. Topic: Rebranding of America: The Oligarchs Want Their Serfs Back The audience was very interactive and it was quite the honor! Shoutout to Wendy & Tim Yockey for recording!
I will never play the victim card nor deny that it is the responsibility of WE THE PEOPLE to fix our government. However, I will not ignore an inconvenient truth…
No matter how badly you may want to:
For most working-class Texans, showing up in Austin or Washington to testify and show support or disdain for a specific bill is not practical in 2023.
When you’re struggling to put gas in your car, pay the bills, buy $350 worth of groceries that in the past only cost $200, and rework three months budget to replace a transmission - who can afford to miss work to spend more money driving or flying to our state or nation’s capital?
Ironically enough, besides voting, going to Austin or DC to testify is precisely what we should be doing.
These are our responsibilities as citizens, and neither is lost on me.
