Dear Editor,

World literature is full of portrayals of Utopias. Each author depicted what he imagined to be unique about each phantasmagorical land.

The Emerald Tablets depict a technologically advanced culture on Atlantis. There is a short section in Genesis where Eden was the ideal society. In Exodus, we are presented with documentation of our ET overlords helping humanity to spiritually evolve. There is Sir Thomas More’s Utopia from the Middle Ages that emphasizes merit. During the Elizabethan era, Francis Bacon gave us the educated population of The New Atlantis. We have an inkling of an ideal community in the Founding Fathers’ “more perfect Union.” All have captivated and inspired readers for multiple millennia.

Since Jan. 20, 2021, we’ve been hearing about a lot about “transitions” and “transitioning to …”

What are we transitioning to? We are into a year and a half of a Utopia?

There is a tiny minority of loudmouth, liberal ideologues ecstatic from the last two years, but the vast majority of Americans use the moniker Brandon; routinely state Biden is the worst president; “cringeworthy” and “disconnect” are used to describe the rare occasion when Biden has a press conference.

Why, if we are evolving into a Utopia, do we have to deny God’s Nature?

Within just the last two years, Western Culture has had the epiphany that God made us the wrong gender. Men can now get pregnant. Biologically born men can compete and win in womens sports. It’s normal ‘cuz we’re following the science.

Do these types of cultural problems exist in underdeveloped countries, or is it just a Western phenomenon? I’m asking for a friend.

Moreover, all around the world, the God-given immune system suddenly disappeared and was replaced with four vaccines and you’ll need one a year for the rest of your life, even though they have been proven to be largely ineffective. And there are still single drivers wearing a mask.

So what have we wrought by denying reality? Death and destruction. Why do leftists have such an aversion to the Truth? There is the original snowflake: John Wilkes Boothe. He couldn’t handle being on the wrong side of history, so he murders at Ford’s Theatre. Around 40 years later, the leftist indoctrinated Leon Czolgosz assassinated Pres. McKinley. The Unabomber killed to overthrow “… the economic and technological basis of the present society” (Douglas and Olshaker pg. 192). Over the last couple of years, haven’t we seen similar behaviors from uneducated, leftist Veruca Salts? They decide who out of history will have their statue toppled and which Portland business will be looted and burned. If it looks like SCOTUS will prevent the unborn from being killed, a leftist kid decides he should kill a conservative justice.

If social media decides that your post goes against the narrative of how magnificent the ‘rona vaxx is, you are silenced. Maskers feel entitled to shame you for not wearing a mask, but they can’t comprehend when someone uses “my body my choice” in a non-abortion setting. Biden’s “pandemic of the unvacinated” speech, no matter how unscientific his pontification was, demonized scientifically orientated people. Recently, he repeated his castigation of dissenters in his disgraceful Dracula speech. Didn’t we see that during the Clarence Thomas hearings too? If you disagree with your local school board, you’re considered an enemy of the state. Abortion at any time during those 9 months is the ultimate silencing. And Margaret Sanger and her “menace of the moron” paved the way for cheapened life (1920: 51).

How is today’s America a Utopia?

I see more of a parallel with Solzhenitsyn’s autobiographical The Gulag Archipelago. Why aren’t we discussing his emigration to the US in the ’80s? And public indoctrination campuses value CRT over Solzhenitsyn’s insightful expose of Communism? We have quickly forgotten how East Berliners were innovative in escaping to West Berlin and how Cubans fled Castro. Of course, any criticism of China’s slave labor is vorbotten. But that is what we get when we eliminate the past and teach it’s all about me now.
