The family is not a niche issue, a private lifestyle preference, or a sentimental talking point reserved for holidays and greeting cards. It is the most basic social institution in any civilization and the primary mechanism by which moral norms, economic stability, and social trust are transmitted from one generation to the next. When families…
The Great Political Shape-Shift: How Progressivism Rewired the American Parties
Most Americans have heard the phrase “the parties switched.” Yet few can explain what that means, when it happened, or how it unfolded. The truth is more complex than the slogans of modern politics. The Democratic and Republican parties did not swap identities overnight; they evolved over nearly two centuries through a combination of moral…
You Might Be Woke If….
“Woke” once meant being alert to injustice. Today, it describes a full-fledged ideology—a secular religion rooted in critical theory, radical subjectivism, and revolutionary politics. It teaches people to see all of life through the lens of oppression, privilege, and identity group conflict. The “woke worldview” believes that truth is socially constructed, moral norms are oppressive,…
Book Review: It’s Not Like Being Black: How Sexual Activists Hijacked the Civil Rights Movement by Voddie Baucham
We live in an age where categories are rapidly collapsing. Male and female are considered fluid. Morality is redefined as preference. And now, perhaps most provocatively, sexual behavior is being framed as an issue of civil rights. According to many in modern progressive movements, to identify as LGBTQ+ is not only to express a private…
The Redefinition of Violence – Property Destruction, Speech, and the Deceitful Heart of Man
Protesters and Democrat leaders like US Representative Maxine Waters claim that destruction of property as witnessed in the recent ICE riots is not violence. In recent years, particularly during the widespread riots of 2020 and beyond, the American Left—represented chiefly by Democrat leaders, activists, and their media allies—has promoted the troubling idea that property destruction…
Critical Theory/Intersectionality – the Ideological Web Behind “Progressivism” and The Democrat Party
In public debates today, words matter—and they matter a great deal. Political movements rise or fall not just based on their substance, but on how they are labeled. The term Progressive, widely used to describe left-wing political and cultural ideologies, carries with it a flattering connotation: that the movement is moving society forward, improving justice,…
How Critical Theory and Intersectionality Power the Democrat Coalition
In today’s America, if you express concerns about transgender ideology, question the normalization of homosexuality, or critique radical feminism, you’re likely to be labeled a bigot. That’s not because most Americans are actually intolerant or hateful. It’s because a sophisticated ideological framework—critical theory, operating through its political tool intersectionality—has redefined dissent as oppression. This redefinition…
What Does “Woke” Really Mean?
In today’s political and cultural debates, few words spark more emotion—or confusion—than “woke.” It’s often used as an insult or rallying cry, but it’s rarely defined with any precision. Is it just about being sensitive to racism? Is it a catch-all term for political correctness? Or is it something deeper? This post seeks to define…
Public Education and the Rise of Ideological Indoctrination
Some of my friends and acquaintances in the public education system believe that my assessments of their colleagues are too pessimistic. Others quietly affirm what I’ve observed. This letter is for those who think I’ve been too critical. Let me begin with my own memories of school. I went through K–12 primarily in the 1970s…
Are School Board Elections Important? Yes – and More than You Think
I want to encourage conservative voters to carefully consider their choices for school board members in November. Your informed vote counts more than you think. School board elections are difficult due to their non-partisan nature, which allows the possibility of electing individuals that don’t reflect conservative values. Local media interviews are useful to form an…
Indiana House Bill HB1134 or Similar Legislation Requiring Curriculum Transparency in Public Schools should be considered
Indiana legislature is considering HB1134. HB1134 seeks to curb indoctrination of children into woke ideology, primarily through curriculum transparency and limiting classroom conversation on related topics. It’s no secret woke idealogues want to change our nation. Sadly, Biden’s administration supports their efforts. Wokeness is evolved Marxism. White, heterosexual, cisgender (non-transgender) Christian males are viewed as…
