And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite?
Thanks for the comment, Dave. I'm sure some of it is the natural tendency to become more conservative over time, but much (if not all) of the media and institutions of higher education have been captured by the progressive left. They push their beliefs on everyone and indoctrinate our kids. Time "cures" some of them but with media and entertainment incessantly pushing the work narrative its hard.
I am 67 and have wondered how I became SO far right. My beliefs which developed in the late 60’s and early 70’s while in HS and college were anything but “right” at the time. (At least according to my father) Has my step slowed so much that I cannot keep up with the shifting sands of moral and cultural change? I doubt it. I am very comfortable with my center to right-of-center ethos; fiscally conservative and more socially liberal. I do believe that Politicians and Corporate Media (formerly MSM) know there are votes, power and profits to be had by continually pushing to the left and maintaining disruption and division within their countries.
The irony is that it is the Democrats, and the deep state actors who control them, who are now paying for a genocide and doing their damndest to censor and punish their political opponents.
I think labeling the Nazis 'far right' was originally a leftist ploy. The National Socialists were actually far left. We could embrace the label "far right". In the sense that if right is good, then farther right may be better.

TLDR; I didn't leave the left, it left me.

Another excellent article 👏
Thanks Patrick!

Just who are the Nazis here?
Good piece
In a New York minute.
