Why Black Lives Matter is Satanic

Hey buddy, it's Justin. Sorry I didn't get to call you right back, or even call back today, really. I've been really trying to get me to be able to breathe, and trying to take care of the situation. They got me on some medicine, I can't even think hard as well.

Anyway, when you need a time, give me a shout. Hey buddy, I'm sorry I fell asleep while I was talking to you. I was leaving a message a minute ago, I'm sorry. The medicine they have me on is pretty powerful, and it's knocking me out.

But I want to talk to you more about that, what you were talking about earlier. And I love you, and I understand where you're coming from. And I just want to talk with you about it, so you know where we're at.

So give me a call when you can, and I would love to talk to you. Alright buddy, see ya.

Opening Banter and Show Introduction

This is Apologetics Live. To answer your questions, your host, from Striving for Eternity Ministries, Andrew Rappaport.

Alright, we are live. That was an actual voice message that was left to me by Pastor Justin Pierce. He actually did fall asleep while leaving a voicemail. This is why you don't call people when you're going in.

I think I'll have to get him to let me know. I think it was like kidney surgery, or I forget what he was in for. He's calling me from the hospital. I forgot that I had that voicemail until he mentioned it.

And I said, oh, well I can quickly get that and throw it into the queue for you guys to enjoy listening to him fall asleep while leaving a message. Alright, well this is Apologetics Live. We're glad that you're here with us tonight.

I'm going to be letting Dr. Silvestro take the reins, which is always dangerous. And he is going to be joined by Pastor Justin Pierce. Alright, so you guys are going to talk on an issue that is not controversial at all.

I saw the title. I realize that there's going to be no controversy here, so I can just leave and feel comfortable that there will be no fires burning. There will be no nothing could possibly go wrong.

How many seconds do we think that Andrew Rappaport is going to leave this conversation?

Yeah, I mean, you're talking on something like the title is Black Lives Matter Satanic. I mean, like really? There you go. What do you got? Okay. Well, you know, I think I'm going to be able to trust that you guys could do this.

Anthony's got to figure out how to add people because we got John there if he doesn't fall asleep. Do we got Mike? Hi, guys. Mike is back. That's Mike. Big Mike. What are you doing, buddy? He can't hear you.

He can't hear. Let's wave. Everybody wave. There's a big wave to Big Mike. So for folks who don't know, this is Apologetics Live. We answer your Apologetics questions. If you want to join in, ask any questions, give any challenges, just go to ApologeticsLive .com, Thursday nights, 8 to 10 Eastern Time, and you can join in.

Get your social justice friends to call in and give Anthony a hard time. I won't be here, so it'll be fine. As far as announcements, don't know, Anthony, I'm trying to think. I don't know that we have any speaking events until, like, August.

Until August, yeah.

Yeah. I mean, the only thing I have to say is Italian lives matter. There you go. And we're going to start that off tonight. Italian lives matter.

I thought Irish lives and Scottish lives. I kind of got Scotch-Irish going on there. They matter, too. Whatever you do, do not say all. If you use the word all, you're in trouble.

Yeah, that's right. So we have to be specific about every group.

Every specific ethnic group has to be represented.

All right. So, Justin, did you find it was more pleasurable to try to talk with Andrew while you were hopped up on pain medication falling asleep than it is when you're actually awake?

Well, what he's not telling you is that while I was on the medication, I had just come back from surgery for a ruptured appendix, and it was really bad. I spent years recovering from it. But while I was in a hospital, I kept calling him because I was trying to convince him that Just For Men, the hair product, was a good idea, even if you are Jewish.

You know, the white hair, stuff like that, it looks good, but, you know, it kind of gives you that older definition. And I was trying to help him understand that, but he just couldn't catch it. So I really was trying to help him.

Okay, maybe not. I don't remember what the conversation was about. All I remember is he calls me up and says, Hey, I got this for you, or sends me a text and says, I got this for you. And I was embarrassed as could be, but it was hilarious.

Just the fact that you, I don't remember what it was about. It was just that you fell asleep while leaving me a message. And it was like, literally, you're still on the phone and it was, it was still coming.

Oh, it was probably a good while that I was laying there because the medication they had me on, I didn't know my name, your name or anybody else. I didn't know what was going on.

The question I would like to know is what was that medication? Because I'd like to get it for Anthony. I don't have a clue.

I really don't remember. That could be good. Whatever it was, it didn't stop the pain. It just stopped me from knowing anything was going on.

Yeah, that's good. So, so Pastor Justin, we, we get to do, we get to do a second show on Black Lives Matter because as it last week, the way it worked out was, was it was supposed to be you and I doing the show.

Right. And Andrew was going to back out. And, and here was the funniest thing. Andrew spent probably half the time talking and we shared the other half. And, and after the show, like the literally the next day, you probably don't know this yet.

Maybe I told you, I don't know. But the next day he says, you know, I had to talk because you guys weren't prepared. You guys, you guys, I got to teach you guys how to prepare. I go. Oh man. Do you recognize Andrew that we, that Justin has 18 pages of notes.

I have now 23. I had 14 pages of notes. And I go, we already had, we had already spent a few hours on the phone discussing exactly what we were going to be doing. But, uh, you know, whatever. It was fun last week.

So, so we're going to get through your actual notes today. Yeah. But, uh, but before we get to this, I mean, first we want to say for anybody who's listening, if you have questions about Black Lives Matter, if you have questions about social justice, which is very much tied to it.

If you have questions about cultural Marxism, if you have questions about any nonsense, like, you know, of, you know, nonsense like that, please come in, ask questions. You can come in live. We'll let you in.

Or if you can just put a question into the comment bar, we'll go ahead and answer some of those questions. But before we get to Black Lives Matter, I have an article that we, that Mike Stockwell and I pulled up this morning.

And, and it was a shocker. So I was, I was reading somebody's Facebook page who was talking about the Christian rock star who lost his faith. Right. Not my words, theirs. Yeah. And, uh, so it's, it's regarding John Steingard, a guitarist for the band Hawk Nelson.

And, uh, he came out and said he no longer believes in God. And so somebody posted, I'm not gonna say who, cause I like this guy, but he posted this article that somebody wrote in response to Hawk Nelson.

And that's the article that I want to bring up because this article, um, he said was a very good response. This article was written by none other than Sean McDowell. So this is Sean McDowell. It's a blog he wrote.

It's a dated May 27th, 2020. And it is titled Christian rock star loses his faith. Three big lessons for the church. Now, Justin, I think at some point I would love to have you on and, and maybe even Andrew, and we can talk about presuppositional apologetics.

Why it is the only biblical method in terms of apologetics. Yes, we can use evidential. Yes, we use some classical, but it always has to be in the framework of a presuppositional foundation. And so, and so I want to be able to, to do a show on this.

And here is why Sean McDowell. Considered one of the top apologists out there, right? If you read the top 20 lists that different magazines and others put out, he's always almost always in the top 20 list.

And so let me, let me read a paragraph here in regards to somebody who wrote this and who's considered a top 20 apologist. Be ready for this. He says in their book, sticky faith, Cara Powell and chap Clark show that young people do not often abandon their faith solely because of doubt.

Now, of course, you and I would both agree that you don't abandon your, you don't lose salvation. Once you're, once you, once God's been granted you salvation, repentance and faith, the Holy spirit enters into you and does not leave you.

Is the guarantee of our inheritance. So, so, you know, I, I'm going to dismiss that first sentence right off the bat, but it goes on. It says rather it is unexpressed doubt that is corrosive to faith.

Believe it or not, but I, Sean McDowell still have some doubts today. I am not certain. Christianity is true. I am confident, but not certain. My doubts drive me to find answers and also to rest in God's grace.

I don't know about you, but this, this isn't just troubling. I think it's downright blasphemy. How do you do this? How do you say you're not certain? I mean, he goes on later on in the article in his third reason, second or third reason.

He says, ultimately I'm a Christian because I believe Jesus rose from the dead. The resurrection of Jesus is existentially powerful and historically credible.

But you have to think about it. The concept here is, is the, the religious concept, the religious norm of society. And what we're going to talk about later on, actually the, the socialism, the social Marxism and the communist mantra of exchanging Christianity and true religion for the cultural religion is, is what is part of the agenda.

You know, when you have big names, you know, and I'll tell you, there's a major problem with having big names that tell you big things because they're big names. Okay. I could care less if you're, you know, if you're, if you have a big name attached to yourself and you have millions of followers, what I want to know is, is are you biblically astute and are you, are you capable of rightly dividing the word of truth?

Our, our foundational axiom is the word of God. Okay. And it is a spirit revealed. When he says, you know, that he has his doubts, you know, when he, when he says he has his doubts, it's coming from the concept that it's okay to doubt Christ and to doubt God.

What's he doubting? You know, what's he doubting? I don't understand that concept myself, but for the world, it's okay to say, I haven't achieved or I haven't attained. I'm always looking for truth, but I've never actually found it.

It sounds nice. It sounds really good. Although Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the father except how? Through him. Through me. He is exclusive and he doesn't, he doesn't relent.

He doesn't back down and he's not going to play a social game. He's not going to play a world's game. He's going to come in his way and that's, and that's the only way he's going to accept.

So yeah, no, and we can certainly break this down. Maybe, maybe next week, even we'll, we'll tackle this because I was very, I was very disturbed in, in reading this. I mean, he gets into all kinds of churches loaded with kids loaded with church kids, and this is what they're hearing.

I, I'm, I'm just extremely, extremely troubled. And obviously this flies directly in the face of, of Romans one, the general revelation we have of God, Romans two general revelation we have of God. This flies directly in the face of all this, let alone a guy who's, who's an apologist who should know better.

Jesus didn't walk around trying to prove himself to people. He, he said the law and the prophets testify to me. That's it. It was really simple. Paul didn't walk into, into conversations, Acts 17. He didn't walk into conversations, trying to lay evidence upon evidence upon evidence to try to prove the existence of God.

He says, no, no, no, your statue there. That's, that's the one God, that's the one true God. I, I, I'm just, I'm floored by this, but having said that, let's shift gears. We'll, we'll come back to this next week.

Amen. But, okay. So black lives matter. Okay. I, I know there's going to be people, there are people who probably look at this title. Why black lives matter is satanic. We're going to say it today. Stick with us for the next hour and 45 minutes and you will understand exactly how it's satanic.

I, I, I also want to say one other thing just to make sure we have terms, right? Because we're going to be talking about some cultural Marxism today. And, and I know Justin, when you sent that article to me and Andrew earlier, it, it, it talked about this just a little bit.

So when we understand society, we look at a capitalistic society, pure capitalism, and the other side would be, would be pure communism. Marxism is a philosophy. So Marxism is a philosophy that lends itself to what we would call social, a socialistic agenda.

And so laws that get put, that get put into place, achieve, achieve socialistic ideals based off of Marxist philosophy. And when that socialist, when that socialist, when the socialistic ideals continue to pile up to, to the umpteenth degree, it becomes communism.

And so, so we, I want to make sure we understand some of those concepts, right? As we, as we talk today. But having said all that, I think we should open up again with Colossians two verses eight through 10.

Amen. So see to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.

For in him, all fullness of deity dwells in bodily form, and in him you have been made complete, and he is the head over all rule and all authority. And so this, this is a really interesting passage because what I look at here and what I see in many other passages is, is there's clearly only two worlds, according to God.

I'm sorry, two worldviews according to God. Yeah. Right, there is, there is the Christian worldview, the correct worldview, and there is literally everything else. Everything else is lumped together. Whether you believe in, in Islam or you believe in Mormonism or you believe in yada yada, whatever, all of those get placed in the exact same category, which is unbelievers.

And, and we see here that, that there's two categories as well. There is, there is the philosophy and empty deception side, which is according to the tradition of men, which is also according to the elementary principles of the world.

That's one side. And then the other side is according to Christ. Exactly. Right. Very plain to see that distinction here. And, and what I, what I thought was really interesting in doing some word study here is, is with some of the Greek words here, takes you captive is a, is a combination of several Greek words that, that talk about the booty.

Like what somebody would steal somebody, what somebody would steal from somebody like the loot or the booty and then to carry off. So, so we see here takes you captive is literally somebody taking something from you and then carrying it away.

And in this case, it would be your minds. Exactly. Carried off by the deceit, by the empty deception and philosophy. So I don't know if you want to speak to that at all here, Justin.

Well, what I was going to say is, is when we're talking about the, the philosophies that we see this, the, the intellectual, intellectual ideologies that we are seeing today. It's no accident that they've come about the way they have.

We, we see that I was actually just having a conversation with three different professing Christians and they had posted if you, something about black lives matters from Dwayne, the rock Johnson and something that he had posted and, and he got it from somebody else.

And it was talking about, it was taking the, the, the scripture out of context when Jesus was dealing with the one sheep that was lost, the 99 that were saved. And, and it was trying to apply a completely bad context to it.

And I was trying to explain to these professing Christians that, you know, context matters and what we're talking about matters. And you can't apply it where, where it doesn't apply. And they're talking about, this is, you know, proof that Jesus was involved or, or, or comfortable with, with socialism.

And, and he was comfortable with the, you know, the haves and have nots and, and, and crushing slavery and oppression. And they just went on and on and on. And as other Christians were trying to talk to them about their demeanor, their attitude, their character and conduct, words like stupid, fool, dope, idiot of the system, all of these things were coming out of these Christians mouths or, you know, typing, shall I say.

And so, as I was talking with them, I was trying to explain to them the difference between the Christian worldview and the philosophical worldview that has come about since, since always back in the, in the World War I, World War II.

It's come through this ideology of socialism, Marxist, you know, you know, Marxist belief in theory and, and communism, you know. And I came across, and I do not remember how I came across it, a book that was, it's called The Naked Socialist.

And it was written in, I want to say it was written in 66 or 55. So it was, it was written a while back, written quite a while back. And I had, I had done some research into it. And there is a FBI counterintelligence director who studied socialism, Marxism, he studied, you know, communism and whatnot.

And he has, he has broken down and explained what is going on with the communist manifesto and the, and the pillars of socialism and what they want to do. And it's all philosophical. It's all philosophical.

And when you're talking about Black Lives Matters, you have to think about this. The ideologies that they have come to, Antifa, Black Lives Matters, socialism, Marxism, all of that, their, their philosophies, they didn't come out of, out of nothing, ex nihilo.

You know, they came from, from the, the high planes of intellectual thought upon those ivory towers of lofty opinions over at the colleges that were untouchable. They were unquestionable. And these people brought in more and more of their Marxist socialist teaching, their victimization teaching.

And brothers and sisters, we as the body of Christ have to deal with it. We have to know how to deal with it, to identify it and to speak to it and against it. You know, I mean, as I was talking to three Christians yesterday, I explained to them that the, the dividing factor of all of humanity and the uniting factor of the elect is Jesus Christ.

I was called a coward. Because I wanted to hide behind the cross of Jesus Christ and not stand up and declare that Black Lives Matters and that if I don't stand with Black Lives Matters, I'm a sellout.

Brothers and sisters, that's, that's the philosophy of the world. That's philosophy of the world and it's come into the church. It's come into the body of Christ. I don't know if you've noticed it or not, but can you guys possibly do as many links as you can to all of the organizations that have given themselves over wholeheartedly to BLM?

Everybody has. And if you don't, you are an enemy. You are seen as the, the person that is, is terrible in every single way. You are the, the troll, the, the, the Cretan, you are the one that needs to be crushed and defeated.

And if you say that the only legitimate life that matters is that one that is created in the image of Almighty God, Italian lives matter. If you say something like that, Irish lives matter. Scottish lives matter.

If you say anything like that, if you say blue lives matter, if you say, if you say, okay, let's be consistent. Black lives matter. All black lives matter. Let's say that. Let's all agree to it. All black lives matter.

Every single baby that's murdered mattered. Every single one and every single person that, that, that has been gunned down, shot down, drugged, dealerships, and everything else. Uh, from, from every, uh, walk of life and every community that they're in, if all of their lives matter equally, let's be logically consistent.

Then God is the God on the throne and he hates all murder. And we have to be the ones that have the antidote. And that is in Jesus Christ. It won't ever be found in social justice.

Yeah, that's right. You know, I, I love this comment that, uh, that I just put up here. I don't believe left-wing at this point can be a Christian. If they claim to be, then to the left, they are conservatives.

Therefore, left-wingers cannot be Christian by the logic as we're seeing. And that, you know, this, this really goes right into what you were just talking about. Even, even if we look at one issue and one issue alone, abortion.

Amen. The leftist side is, is full on board for Planned Parenthood, full on board for, for abortion. And if, if nothing else, it is, and granted, there is a whole lot of other reasons that, that a Christian can't be left in terms of politics.

But, but abortion itself should be the one that causes every single professing Christian to say, I can't join there. I'm not saying you got to be on the right. I'm not saying you got to align with yourself, with, with anybody in particular on the right.

Although I have my opinions on that. Um, I'm just saying you can't possibly be on the left. So, yeah, I, I agree with you there. So, but I want to go back to something you were, you were just talking about.

Um, you were talking about, and I know this is in some of your notes as well, the dismantling of America, systemic dismantling of America. That, look, whether people want to agree with it or not, this was a, a nation built on Christian ideals.

And, and I'm not saying that all our founding fathers are Christian. They weren't. I'm not saying the ones that were Christian were theologically deep. I'm just saying that from a bare bones, basic level, this was founded on Christian ideals.

I mean, we see this in Declaration of Independence, that, that's, um, that our creator endowed certain, certain rights, inalienable rights to people. So rights are not of, rights are not from the governments.

They're not from, again, elected officials, laws on the books, our opinions, rights come directly from God. And, and so we see that this country that was built on these ideals, um, correct foundation to a degree has been dismantled.

And all the dismantling that's going on is literally, or are literally things that goes directly against scripture. Black Lives Matter. We talked about this last week. We went through the 13 bullet points last week.

Yeah. Nine of which are cultural Marxism. Nine of which are directly against what the Bible teaches. And so, so this is, this is, uh, it's insane to watch this, but I want to go back even further because you bring up the idea of Stalin and, and socialism.

And so I want to pick your brain on this in a moment, but I would surmise that it goes back a little bit earlier. So we have the, the communist manifesto that was, that was written what 1850s in that, in that neighborhood.

And, and that was by Karl Marx, who we pointed out last week towards the end of the show. He used the same language, the proletariat bourgeoisie that was used during not only French revolution, but by the French enlightenment period leading up to the French revolution.

Exactly. It's clear that this was a continuation of the same philosophy that was going on. Taking, going from the age of God to an age of what they would call reason, which is essentially against God.

Yeah. But all this comes to a head in America in the early 1900s. And so there was, there was a meeting that was called the, the upper room meeting in lower Manhattan, 1905. And, and out of this meeting came a group of people called the intercollegiate socialist society.

In, in this society, there were numerous, numerous people who, who had wealth that did everything they could to flip this country to a socialist nation. Taking the, what was learned off of Karl Marx and other philosophers after him, and, and being able to, to do this to America.

And so they laid out this plan that we're really seeing come to fruition in the last, oh, 30 years of the homosexual agenda. The last five to 10 years where things have just been way in our, in our face.

The last couple of years with Black Lives Matter and Antifa. But this all goes back to 1905. And so there's interesting ties in, in this intercollegiate socialist society was tied to the socialist party that was in America at the time.

The socialist party seemed to die out somewhere in the late teens, early 20s. But in reality, what they did is they wrapped themselves up into the Democrats. And, and this is where you have different spurts.

I mean, think about in our past where you had the government having Q &A, right, with, with other government officials about communists that have infiltrated the government. It all goes back to this meeting and the socialistic agenda that was being put in.

But it was well funded by, by a number of guys. Interesting to point out, very much like Antifa, right? Antifa guys, as I think you pointed out last week, Justin, are guys that are students at Harvard, Yale, Duke, Stanford, all these way left colleges.

Kids who, who grew up with, if you want to talk about white privilege, they grew up with a classic, what they would call classic white privilege. And are now trying to go and fight what they would call white privilege.

It's, it's really mind numbing to think about it. But, but these are, these are the same colleges that, that were targeted way back in the day by this intercollegiate society. So led by guys like John Dewey and others, they said the way we're going to flip this country is by going to the colleges, and we're going to get new professors trained that are going to go in and teach these ideals.

And when we get the professors trained, that those professors will train the students, and eventually we'll have this cycle going in the, in the teaching realm. And that's exactly what they've done and what they've accomplished over the years.

And so we go from 1905, where this meeting was first held, as far as we know. It may have started earlier, but this is the first official one we know of, that has written, written documentation. And, and by the time 19, I think it was 17 rolls around, they had 40 college campuses that had this society on the rolls there in terms of an official student organization.

So they, they moved actually quite quickly and got, got getting into those college campuses. And, and they were able to change everything at that point. Exactly. So, so on that, I mean, you, you have some notes about Stalin.

And so what did, what have you picked up about Stalin? Because he was, he was going on during this time period as they're getting into the colleges.

Well, what you got to think about, and you know, I want to make sure that nobody, nobody gets bogged down in the minutia of what's going on. Because what we're talking about is, why is this explosion of, of ideologies and warring going on today?

Why is it going on right now? And I believe with all of my heart that this is a part of an agenda. I believe that the lockdown, even though, yes, it was partially due to the fact that we were worried that something was going to happen to each and every one of our families and all of our children were going to die and everybody over 40 was going to die.

And, and every old person was going to die in the United States and all of our aunts and uncles, they were all at risk. And, you know, if you breathe within a mile and a half of somebody, you could all die, you know, and it was terrifying.

You know, my children were scared. I'm talking to them about, you know, even if you do get sick, you know, I don't, I don't see it happening, but if you do get sick, the chances are you're going to recover.

And if you don't, are they threatening you with heaven? You know, and that's what I try to tell them. But you think about it, the complete lockdown turned into a police state. And for much of the, of the society, you had Christians being arrested.

You had churches being forced to shut down, threatened to shut down. You had people in parks, you know, enjoying their, their, their time, you know, under social distance orders being put in jail. You had all of these things going on that, that, that we all looked in shock saying, what's going on?

You have the, the governor of Virginia, you know, everybody's calling him Adolf Hitler now because of the stuff he's doing. And, and you think, what, what's going on? And then all of a sudden, like a day after they say, say that we're going to start to ease up on some things, some restraints, a few days, all of a sudden we have to go to absolute anarchy and chaos and destruction.

And everybody's coming together to just destroy. And I have the, the opinion based on the studies that I've done in the Naked Socialist and talking about the exposing of socialists and in the Communist Manifesto.

It is, I have the opinion that what we, what we're seeing is part of the agenda. Now, I, in order to explain it, I want to, I want to tell you part of the Communist Manifesto, just, just a few of the things that they, they say is part of their goals and desires.

And this was in the Communist Manifesto written in 18, let me think here. I believe it was around 1870, 1855, somewhere in that neighborhood. It was, it was written to, to warn everyone and to, to get everyone on the same goal.

This is communism. Before I do that, I want to read something to you from the author of the Naked, Naked Communist and Naked Socialist. I'm sorry. He says the goal of the goal of socialism is communism.

What is usually called socialism was termed by Marx, the first or lower phase of communist society. And he says this Western culture has adopted socialist thinking for a very long time, but not in a vacuum.

Guiding it all along have been a number of socialist objectives, targets and goals. They come in the form of friendly solutions that play on our natural human weaknesses. They promise something for nothing, an easier life, the benefits without the costs, the fix for all things, fairness, social justice.

Just give socialism, socialism a try. I mean, that was Bernie's mantra is, you know, socialism works. Give it a try. These objectives and goals have a great worldwide following today. Most people don't realize that these goals are designed to soften them up, to prepare them for the final collapse of freedom and the birth of the global, global rulers law, international socialism and a new world order.

You've heard that term bantered around when you were a kid, but most people don't don't remember that term, the new world order. And this is not something that is conspiratorial. This is directly out of Marx and Kant and all of these really, really bad influences upon upon the world.

He says, for a lack of understanding, many loyal defenders of freedom are supporting the goals of socialism. You see, they don't understand. And I'm convinced that a lot of these people that are out here marching and screaming and yelling that call themselves Christians, that call themselves, you know, believers and that they love America.

They don't understand that they've been duped into a false teaching and a false system because they've never heard it. All they've heard is the is the lauded lofty goodnesses of, you know, giving all things to socialism and communism.

You know, that's all they've ever heard. But listen to I just want you to listen quickly to some of the points on communist on the Communist Manifesto, an abolishment to all property and land and application for all rents and of land to public purposes.

Heavy, progressive, gradual income tax abolishment of right of inheritance, confiscation of property for all immigrants and rebels. Centralizing of the credit of in the hands of the state by means of national banks.

Centralization by means of the communication and transport at the hand of the state. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state. Do you guys remember who just bailed out a large motor company because they were too big to fail and they had to be bailed out and the country was going to own a percentage of it?

Remember who that was? Barack Obama did that. Equal liability to all labor. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries. Free education for all children in public schools.

Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Not complete abolition, but its present form. Frank Robert got the got the right answer. GM. It goes on and on and on and on of what they what their stated goals and desires was.

And it was to bring about a complete decay and destruction of the national identity. Let's see if you guys remember this term. The Great Melting Pot. The Great Melting Pot is America. We used to be a people that said it's even on even on the Statue of Liberty.

Tells us to bring us your poor, you're sick, you're tired. Bring us all of these ones that want to come to this world and identify as Americans. They want to come and make themselves, you know, life, liberty, pursuit of happiness to become a part of a unified society.

Where we the people work together for the common good of all mankind. As we the people, and that's the stressed point, is you and me. You and me. We the people. Not the government. Not the ruler class.

Not those ones that are in absolute control and oligarchical power. It's not those. It's the ones that are the people trying to work together. And that's the point. It's not a free gift. It's not a handout for everybody.

It's that we are working together. And we would call it for the common good. But what's happened.

I'm sorry, go ahead. But of course, I mean, they sell it as a way of being able to all work together for the common good, sharing the resources. But in reality, communism always has one or multiple people that are in power and actually have lots of wealth, and everybody else is still way down at the bottom.
