There is a Time to Call a Spade a Spade, And There is a Time for Compassion

            Monsters exist in the world today, folks, some vicious dragons, that need to be slain.  Or, to put it simply, this planet has a lot of evil people on it.  Tragically, more and more of them are visible in the United States.  That fact cannot, must not, be denied or ignored.  This is a serious matter, survival is at stake, and the issue must be confronted head-on.

            We know from history that appeasing evil doesn’t work.  Evil people only interpret appeasement as weakness, and it inspires them to redouble their blood-lust efforts to conquer.  They, like Hitler and every other malevolent ogre in history, have one goal—victory at any price.  Compromise is not in their dictionary, only total conquest, regardless of any cost.

            There is certainly a time to be benevolent, to show compassion, to reach out.  But there is also a time to call a spade a spade.  We face a serious enemy inside America now, one who will destroy our country if we don’t stop them.  Forget about external enemies at present.  Like Rome, no barbarians will scale our walls until we demonstrate a lack of will to defend ourselves.  Within America, the enemy, the evil I am talking about, is the leadership of the Democratic Party.  Unlike what some Republicans and Americans seem to believe, they are not “nice people” who are just “mistaken” or have “different opinions.”  No.  They are malicious, malevolent, godless fiends, who must be opposed and destroyed.  Joe Biden is evil.  Nancy Pelosi is evil.  Kamala Harris is evil.  Chuck Schumer is evil.  Gavin Newsome is evil.  Most of the “mainstream media” are evil.  Nothing short of it.  Now, on the other hand, I don’t think Mitch McConnell is evil.  Mitch is just a weak man in an era that calls for strength, a useful idiot, a pusillanimous dishrag who wants to hold onto whatever little fiefdom the Washington establishment will allow him to have.  But the Democrats at the top are totally Satanic.  We do no one any favors by pretending they are something other than what they truly are.  People who knowingly lie, kill, and deceive, all for political gain, are evil, not “mistaken.”   Like communists in the USSR, China, and elsewhere, nothing, even the death of millions, the mutilation of children, the abandonment of law and order, the destruction of property, even knowingly lying about the climate, absolutely nothing must stand in their way of gaining power and establishing their earthly “utopia.”  It’s victory for them, or death.  No compromise.

            Yet, violence in opposition is not an option for decent Americans, except in self-defense.  We are not Democrats.  We are better than they are. Violence should be anathema to us.  Let Jesus, as always, be our model.  He, on one occasion, pounded the scribes and Pharisees:  “Woe to you…hypocrites…serpents, brood of vipers!  How can you escape the condemnation of hell?”  On another occasion (apparently twice), he drove the filthy money-grubbers out of the house of God.  He did those things to show the innocent masses exactly who, and what, these demons were.  But then, to a woman caught in the very act of adultery, his tender message was, “Go, and sin no more.”  Jesus didn’t deny she had sinned, and he didn’t condone it.  He simply showed compassion when he knew that was the best course.  And he called a spade a spade when that was warranted.   It is the perfect example for us to emulate.

            I think we conservatives need to be aware, or at least try to believe, that not all people who vote for Democrats are evil, disgusting scum.  Many of them are pleasant people who just don’t know any better—“sheep without a shepherd.”  They have been mis-educated, brainwashed, by truly evil leftists who control public schools and the media, and it is our job to patiently try to re-educate them, and point them in the right direction.  Many of them have indeed made up their minds and are beyond reach.  But not all.  And it is up to you and me to find those who are redeemable and try our best to turn them back to truth and virtue.  I’m not talking about George W. Bush’s “compassionate conservatism” here; that was a farce.  I’m talking about using wisdom.  I’m not sure Donald Trump ever quite understood that, and it might have cost him the presidency in 2020.  But then, I’m not sure I have a full grasp of how to do it, either.  But, as best we can, we need to expose evil where it exists, and try to heal wounds through compassion when we are able to do that.

            Frankly, and sadly, Joe Biden is not the answer.  He is a less-than-mediocre man in a time that calls for greatness.  Biden is a stupid, wicked man who has no clue how to unite people.  It takes a great person to rise above the fray, to lead, to change minds, to reach out and make friends out of enemies.  Few can do it, but we really need some of them right now.  Joe Biden is the absolute antithesis of that.

            We must not compromise with evil.  A cancer that is not removed will kill.  A 30% rotten apple needs surgery as well or soon the whole barrel will be inedible.  Be compassionate towards those who need compassion.  Destroy that which need destruction.  And give a swift kick to those (McConnell, Graham, Romney) who need a swift kick.    

            It isn’t an easy task.  Jesus did it as well as anyone ever could.  And yet, even he was killed by his own nation within the space of three short years.

            No easy task, indeed.  But an essential one to save our country.
