World history is replete with nations, some powerful, that declined from within, not from foreign adversaries invading their land.
Some common traits include lawlessness, lack of patriotism, the rise of elitists in leadership, infringed upon property rights, cheap foreign labor, massive military budgets, etc.
In addition, you can see a decline in morality. Hypersexuality accompanied by the worship of pagan deities left the people without hope, except in their government to act as a “god.”
Of all the moral issues that have divided the United States, abortion has been fought in front of clinics and via annual marches. Politicians have hidden behind Roe and Casey as their excuse for non-action on the issue.
In a disturbing turn, as technology has confirmed the stages of growth of the baby in the womb, abortion activists have further marginalized the baby, elevating the mother’s sole role in deciding in her child comes out alive or murdered.
A left-wing mother wrote to an advice columnist for a far-left magazine, Slate.
The abortion radical was distraught that her 17-year-old daughter attended a pro-life rally with her Christian boyfriend behind the mom’s back.
Here’s what the mom told the columnist, Jamilah Lemieux, in regard to how she handled it:
“We’ve grounded her and taken away her phone for going behind our backs, but she’s showing no remorse. I just can’t believe it. This is the girl who dressed up as Ruth Bader Ginsburg for Halloween when she was 10. She’s heading to law school in a couple of years. I seriously thought she was pro-choice and a feminist. I’ve been taking her to rallies and protests since she was a baby. We’ve been educating her about safe sex and consent. We donate to Planned Parenthood every year for Christmas. I’m fine with her disagreeing with us on other topics, but I had an abortion years ago. We live in a conservative state. I don’t want her right to choose to be taken away.”
In typical fashion for the far left, you know those who used to claim to be the tolerant ones, Lemieux “gaslighted” the situation by telling mom that “some politics are to be challenged at every turn, and there are even those that should result in one being cut off (in adulthood, of course).”
In a hypocritical diatribe, Lemieux told the mother to “inundate her with pro-choice content. Require her to read articles and books that explain why it is important for women to have control of their bodies.”
In addition, she suggested more “frequent and pointed” discussions with the daughter and suggested not letting her go to “any conservative events or any other environment where she’s likely to face some attempts at indoctrination, especially without telling you.”
Lemieux also told the mom that she “may want to limit the amount of time” her daughter “spends around his family. Constantly challenge their politics without attacking them as people.”
Lemieux added, “resist any urge to just suck it up and allow your daughter to do her own thing politically; you’re fighting for her character, her humanity, and her ability to extend empathy to others. You can’t let this boy win. Good luck to you!”
