Celia, it’s not Trump at all. He merely represents the sane reaction to clear insanity in the body collective. Just look at these 4b meltdowns and as you say family killings. These people have been poisoned, propagandised and weaponised against their fellow countrymen, against their own flesh and blood and their own babies!! The biblical movement against this evil was and is inevitable ⚔️

It’s not Trump (and I don’t trust him at all). It’s the diabolical weaponization of messaging- through all forms of media. Mind control through fear and implication. It’s exquisitely executed. If anyone ever doubted the man behind the curtain, this is proof.

Trump is not the divider. All of this negativity is primarily about the power the Mockingbird Media holds on anyone who doesn’t keep their critical thinking engine tuned up. It just so much easier to believe what they say than to stop, consider the message and ask some simple questions like “how can this be” or “who’s benefitting?” But people have just gotten so damned lazy in this cheap thrill world where arrogance is the projected winner and discernment and empathy are easily tossed into the trash.

Jeff I agree and disagree because I know a lot of liberals (I’m speaking as a registered Democrat and former Sanders supporter yikes!) who aren’t lazy. They read and are informed of the news from various sources of media. Yet still there is a huge divide.

During Covid, it boggled my mind that everyone couldn’t see the wool being pulled over our eyes until I realized that AI delivers 2 completely different sets of information depending on your browsing history. I’m sure you know this. It’s shocking that even today there are educated folks who have no idea people are “dying suddenly” in record numbers. No clue. These are caring, unselfish folks who yes, have been brainwashed.

Thanks for that. I guess that laziness only applies to some. I used to think that ignorance was just another word for stupidity. But now just look at it as a form of arrogance - the need to ignore the truth when it doesn’t fit into one’s comfort zone. How many articles, reports, videos and stories have we all sent to our misinformed friends and families that they simply refuse to look at?

I tried sharing like crazy and it fell on too many deaf ears.

But the verbal discourse here should give us hope. And we should never put our faith in government. Not then, not now. Freedom is way to expensive to let someone else decide how we live there.

As AL just said it’s mind control. Most people are programmed with malware, it’s not laziness they are just running their programmed scripts

I like that--critical thinking engine tuned up. Yes. And it is so easy to fall into positions and beliefs (wars in Ukraine and Israel) without deeply analyzing the situation. People rely on pundits to explain to them without realizing that certain key bits of information may have been factored out. We need to bring back discernment!

I read you Celia to ponder, and think, in ways I may not about any given subject you address....and on this particular post I'd add this to your articulations-Trump in no way caused any of this division in my experience...

way back in 2015 when I voted for Trump the first time around- I had not spoken to my eldest child until AFTER said vote was cast and beforehand didnt speak on the subject of elections at all, to only be yelled at that I truly hated her when I answered I voted for him...I entered into no mans land from that point-dead to my daughter not by my choice but hers. Ours is a relationship with many painful layers---and even with my best I failed this child...as a parent you think and rethink all your failing FIRST, then painfully see your childs failings and all the intersects that damage occurred. I have been ghosted for all cards, texts, holidays, and excluded painfully even from my husband on a level of intimacy most parents take for granted-he has a foot on both sides of the civil war wall and cant seem to see how to fix it or how to understand either side. He tries. This child, a true beauty, has since transitioned...on Mothers Day no less. One final F U to the mother she hates and has told she wants to be nothing like nor be around. Trump is not the source of any divisions but a sad symptom of a spoiled petulant generation, unable to grow up, living and brainwashed to thrive in fairy tale books, movies, and gaming lives that offer little to no threats, little to no accountability, and enabled by Gen X parents who have failed them in a myriad of ways to long to list...Society, gaming in particular, secondary education that stepped in and diagnosed a LITANY of ills and prescribed a pill for each of them without parental knowledge, consent or lifelong DRs input, churned out a daughter unable to respond to traumas at all...A child that had always struggled to fit in, high IQ, was now told she was a victim, autistic, poorly parented, etc etc and counseling and drugs became a gateway into trans mania and manipulation. No, we did not see it coming, no we did not see any changes until college and post grad and much like a bomb explosion that removes your legs, you lie staring up, numb, wondering if you are going to live, half not wanting to, with no clue how the heck you stepped into a bomb of this magnitude and didnt die already.

I have been hotlined by said daughter, sat with an alphabet group who said in no way should they have been called and that I was not the only one, the only family, the only parent whose life was eviscerated. Trump, abortion, pick your poison of leftist tripe and it doesnt matter to the parent of the child who hates them...but it is an obsession with the child who hates. And that is what is most heartbreaking...no words, no efforts, no bridge, no mea culpa, no tears can span this void and touch the child with created and show them we love them, not an ideology, not a political movement, not any supposed rights or desires, not Trump nor any other outside of another child of our own can come close to equaling what we feel would do, or give up to make our child know that they are our world..that our love is absolute, more than anything they may do to us, say to us and take away from us. My love has altered in how I show it now--to everyone else who is left to see and interact with what is left of me....the fractured me. I voted for Trump on the 5th. He is, in my opinion, the best to address the dark forces in our out of control government...I could be wrong but I could vote no other way. When you are rejected for who you are, what you think and for what you believe--you start to really try to solidify all three--drive home who you are so you stay sane and believe it or not-my faith has become a bulwark...Prayer where I can feel the presence of Jesus , tears, and yes, even Joy have returned the past few months...when you lose everything and everyone, when people you love fail you, you had better find God at that point...I cant imagine a lower point of humilty, need, and searching where Jesus shows up and heals but that is what has happened to me. Maybe what was meant for evil made me a better mom in the long run, a better wife and definately a better person...The other parents out there who have a living lost child, who have an empty seat and empty home, and damaged heart-I grieve with you...I do not know how or when or IF any of these woke virus infected children will come back to us-but I pray for it, daily, and between my prayers, PITT here on substack and counseling, I am coming to grips with the fact I control nothing on the plane of existence...I bow to the Lord now in a more humbling way, praise him through pain and tears and still see that God is good....that God is indeed love. My failings are like the sand and I was saved, and when I puff up, anger rises, God quietly reminds me that I have done much much worse to him, spoke about him and pained him just I am feeling now...I stand waiting, looking down the road for my wayward child...despite her altered body I know that I will know her when I see her. I have to believe she is still in there, despite scars, drugs poured into her body by a psychotic and criminal medical and pharma cult. If I get to see her again, not with lectured about deadnaming and living a fantasy she is magically a son I never had, but truly see her eyes, and soul, again....it will be level of grace only Gods hand could give me-a miracle above all miracles...that is what I pray for in addition to the restoration of my family, my country and my own prayer life to Jesus, the only one that can right all that is wrong.

(forgive any typos, run ons and blatherings that dont quite make sense....Ive had a hard time seeing through parts of this to type...God be with us all...we need him)

Amen! Thank you TD for sharing your pain with your Christian brothers and sisters because now we can pray for you. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not on your own understanding. But in all ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path." (Proverbs 3:5-6)

TD Firstly forgive me as I’m not nearly as eloquent as you but I can’t stop crying hearing your story. I have a child of my own whom I’ve felt I was losing (in a different way) from time to time so I feel a touch of your pain.

I wish I could wrap my arms around you and pray with you. We mothers make a lot of mistakes in spite of our unconditional love that we endlessly give to our children and yet sometimes it’s just not enough. I have found solace in knowing that however my child “turns out” I have done my best even IF my best wasn’t good enough. I am grateful to have learned a tremendous amount about myself along the way as well. I’m sure that was part of God’s plan too!

Each of our children has their own path, their own struggles and their own self discovery. As Christians, I pray for my child’s protection and that he hears God’s calling and is drawn closer to His love each and every day. I’ll be praying for your child too. Much love to you.

PS The book, The Power Of The Praying Parent is filled with prayers for children of all ages and has been super helpful in my journey.

This reminds me of scenes in Fiddler On The Roof. Reptevia pulling his milk cart around, while his lame horse rests, conversing with God over life's perplexities. And again, Tevia putting his youngest daughter on a train heading east and out of his life perhaps forever...once in a while, reality breaks your heart.

There is a man named Tom Morgan who stares as how we are thinking , and what is going on . He says that there are two hemispheres , a left brain logical singular linear side , and then the right brain which is wise , intuitive , artistic , creative . During one of his pod cast talks , he said that if the left brain hits a wall , it basically feels as if life is over , there is no other option . For kids raised inside of a left brain machine run world , the day before the election , when they still could win , was really the day they should have shaved their heads . However , the denial of a workable future the day after the election , is a clear enactment o f this left brain , the idea was prevented from implementing , therefore the entire biological story is threatened . Including friends and family connections . Your child is not wayward , she has been brainwashed by the culture that we have allowed to dominate . This has also happened in my family , between my mother and my sister , and it is just plain horrible . I am sorry that this is happening in your family . Try walking over the bridge to her side , without words , and do not despair . Work harder to remain connected in ways that have nothing to do with words .

He calls the brain hits wall situation " Left Brain Lock " - where as the right brain would be able to float over the wall , go around it , tunnel under , or maybe just disintegrate the wall and flow right through it .

TDS is the manifestation of one of the most effective PysOps in human history. It hurts to lose the love of family and friends but, the real culprit is the TDS Pysop Cabal.

They've been brainwashed by a death cult and have enjoyed their time in the sun as flying monkeys for the establishment and know their days of having any leverage whatsoever are seriously numbered. I think they liked having the power to create a life and then terminate it and brag about it. Now that the majority of the nation has made it clear what their priorities are, I think they know they're in the minority and they're freaking out. There aren't enough of them to bully and intimidate us any more, so they're defaulting to just becoming individual public menaces. It's honestly really pathetic. Also, families are the foundation of society. The fact that any family member would alienate another family member because they voted for a different person just tells me how shallow and degraded our society has become.

I know you’re taking heat for the last couple days’ writing, Celia, but what you say is deep, it ministers to me, and it has so much truth to it that it NEEDS to be said.

So poignant! I have a friend who I am, as we speak, avoiding calling. I fear her Trump Derangement Syndrome will still be at boiling point a week after the landslide election. I'm giving her plenty of time to cool off. This, a friend of near-50 years! And yes. Other friendships have fallen away. How very odd it all is.

Celia ..... you always offer lovely food for thought...now describing my closest friends to a T.

As for Trump, we love each other too much to muddy our friendship in any way.

I agree. My friends know they can call me in the middle of the night. Just today I spoke to a good friend, and the first thing we said: "It's so good to hear your voice" > The voice is full of nuances and expressions; it's like looking at a person's face, which is even better. They tried to ISOLATE us, DISTANCE us, all under the guise that they were SAVING us; but it did not work!

The News Media caused such hate

Expand full comment

For what is a man, what has he got?

If not himself, then then he is naught

To say the things he truly feels

And not on the words of one who kneels

The record shows I took the blows

And did it my way,

Love to all that did not that a knee.

Trump wasn't and isn't the catalyst. It's the media and their puppet masters. Had truth been allowed to dominate rather than the 24/7 utter LIES they told, the rending would not have been a thing.

Exactly. It’s the vitriol of the entitled, also known as the ‘woke’ or ‘left’, that’s the problem. The same group who hate the unvaccinated, and think of those outside their herd as a ‘basket of deplorables’ or lower caste.

It would be interesting to know if the same feelings of loss followed the 20th century seizures by totalitarian/fascist forces.

As Dr. Naomi Wolf states, we are in the midst of an equivalent war (fought with propaganda rather than firearms) whether we understand it or not.

Friends post on substack without warning. That’s why therapy, psychiatry is doomed. It is scheduled and paid for. A therapist is always trying to hook you up and reel you in. Friends are the breath of the internet. They speak in clunky whimsical ways unschooled and not fooled.

Im going to read the bit about the true nature of friendship to my friends as I think you capture it so well.... and you are so right about Trump being this invisible divider... it's all about propaganda in the end... some people have the curiosity to look beyond it, and others dont and are caught by it...

I think the biggest trick being played is distracting us from connecting to God and living in the present moment. Life is short. And a smile changes our state of being.
