Standing Up For Freedom: Fighting Against Tyranny

I really never thought I'd be in this position. By nature I am an introvert, and used to be very shy. It has only been fairly recently that I've been thrust into a position where I need to be more extroverted. There is a reason for the change in my personality. I think we all go through it at one time or another in our lifetime. For some of us that change comes on suddenly. We don't understand it. We sometimes wish it didn't happen, yet we can't go back.

Standing up for freedom is hard. Everyone tells you that you are crazy to "buck" what's happening. You should be grateful for the "free" money and that the government wants to control every aspect of your life. You should welcome the surveillance and tracing that they are planning to do. You should embrace the mandatory vaccine. Governors know what's best....Not!

Yes, I am nervous about the stand I'm taking. It isn't easy to fight against tyranny in any form. They use soft words, telling us it is for our own good. They tell us that they know what's best for us. They don't. I am glad that some are waking up to the fact that the power hungry Democratic governors are causing their states' economy to crash. It is not President Trump's fault, as much as they like to put the blame on him.

The fight may be bloody soon. I shudder to think this, yet some have said that freedom doesn't come without cost. I am reminded of the many men and women who fought to preserve our freedom. I imagine that they are rolling in the graves at the sight that their states have given up their freedom for safety. The fear mongers are in full force. They would have us trembling in our houses waiting to die. I often wonder how this time period will be recorded. Will the lessons we learned about the corruption be front and center? I'd like to think that we will be victorious over the socialistic Congress, and defeat their evil schemes to completely bankrupt the country so they can bring in their new world order.

Don't get me wrong. There are some good things about globalization. It has brought the world closer together. Globalization though is an enemy to freedom and an encouraging force for tyrannical governments. The problem is that everything is so meshed together that it is easy to forget that you are not part of an global entity. Globalization steals identity and exasperates poverty.

It is Obama's legacy that is now coming to haunt us. He encouraged the lessening of American pride and created a well of disbelief that knocked the country to its collective knees. People got used to the free cell phones and other goodies that they didn't have to pay for or work for at all. They didn't realize that they were selling their souls to the government.

This fight against tyranny won't be easy. Many are disillusioned by the promise of free money for life. They don't realize the terrible cost they will pay for it.
