What is wokeness (Cultural Marxism)?

A friend asked me to define woke/wokeness.  Cultural Marxism, Neo-Marxism, Progressivism, social justice, anti-racism, and critical theory/intersectionality are related terms. Woke implies the person has undergone a conversion experience enlightening him to power dynamics, systemic racism and social injustices of Western civilization.  The new convert experiences critical consciousness. He laments his whiteness and forsakes his…

Wokeness is a state sanctioned cult facilitated by public schools

A former educator and teacher union president has directed several accusations towards my position on wokeness and education. Given his background and rudeness, I have no expectation of honesty from him and won’t address him.  It is not surprising Democrats and current/former educators associated with teacher unions have issues with my letters.   A hit dog…

Chloe Cole and her gender transition and detransition

Chloe Cole is a charming young lady worthy of our respect. She speaks publicly about factors leading her to transition and detransition. Factors related to her transition included a degree of autism, early onset of puberty, and a traumatic sexual encounter. As a result, she felt alienated from her body.  Ultimately, medical professionals recommended hormone…

Rand Paul’s 2022 Festivus report outlining governmental waste

Biden walks, talks, and spends your money like a drunken sailor. Hardworking taxpayers are bearing the burden of his woke policies, including the cost of supporting millions of illegals he allowed into the country under the pretense of asylum.  I am not opposed to orderly, sustainable immigration of genuinely persecuted and well-vetted individuals who can…

The woke and their moral authority, Karl Marx

Parents, woke teachers don’t care about your values, especially if they reflect conservative or biblical values.  You need re-education, according to woke elitists. Christopher Rufo, an investigative reporter, has a great Youtube video called “Critical Race Theory” to understand wokeness and its encroachment upon education. I will describe wokeness from a Christian perspective.  Karl Marx…

Why no Christian should ever vote for Democrat candidates

These are some reasons that no Christian should ever vote for Democrat candidates.  Conservatives, vote for candidates reflecting conservative values.  Unfortunately, school board elections in some states are non-partisan.  This makes it difficult.  Ask county Republican chairs beforehand for recommendations on solid conservative candidate choices.

What is the Christian worldview?

In previous letters to the editor of the local newspaper, I have criticized wokeness. A few readers challenged my understanding of wokeness. Particularly, they criticized my favorite label for wokeness: Neo-Marxism.  Perhaps they want me to use the word “progressive” to describe them.    I don’t believe progressives are moving towards anything but increasing societal chaos.…

Dobbs decision and DOJ double standards

Roe v. Wade was recently overturned by the Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision.  Abortion activists tried to intimidate the court through threatening Supreme Court justices and protesting at their homes.  The Biden administration, predictably, turned a blind eye to these criminal activities while Democrat leaders encouraged them. Title 18, Section 1507 of the US…

Gun control and second amendment rights

Gun ownership is a constitutional right for law-abiding citizens. The Second Amendment is not concerned with hunting, like the left claims.  Colonials needed guns to defend themselves against foreign and domestic enemies.   Our founders wanted future generations to be equipped to defend themselves against oppressive governments, too. Stricter gun control legislation is being discussed by…
