Our Happy 4th of July was made possible by men in 1776 who gave everything they had to bring our nation into being. Americans today should all know about the sacrifices they made for future generations and not take our liberties for granted. Thomas Jefferson: "If we are to guard against ignorance and remain free, it is the responsibility of every American to be informed."

If Americans REALLY cared they'd be up in arms against the politicians flooding our nation with the third world!

Many have taken vaccines, which have wiped out their energy and damaged the glands in their brains...causing inability to think and apathy.

And the generations who have no self reliance, ambition or critical thinking and rely on government promises and programs

We are the greatest nation on earth. Never let socialism ruin it.

SteelJ's avatar

We have at times, many times, been the greatest nation on earth. Right now we are the greatest source of death and destruction on earth. Maybe we can become great again. I hope so.

While I agree that the stolen land argument is flawed, and clearly used as a means of usurping national sovereignty by radical leftists, It does not look like charlie has a good argument here. “At some point, you have to believe in self-determination. If you can win the land, it’s yours. That is what built the West.” This is merely an argument from the "might is right" mentality. Force over morality and love for our fellow man. At some point most land has been stolen from natives. Examples such as what charlie mentioned in mexico, as well as the Jomon of Japan etc. This does not mean we are not allowed to be here as Americans. Merely a poor argument on both sides in this clip.

Take yours and Kirk's argument to the extreme. Even the concept of 'indigenous' is a misnomer. Where/when did the North/Central/South American inhabitants originate? There is some archeological data, but no one has definitively proven where/when. But for sure, not here. The Indian tribes constantly savaged others and stole their lands. Their was nothing noble or sacred about any of them. Yes, they spiritual trappings, but oftentimes included tremendous human sacrifices including children. Right or wrong, the Portuguese and Spaniards came and conquered the resident tribes, also with evidence of deception and destruction. In essence colonists 'stole' land from thieves. But to same America are on stolen Mexican land is laughable and, frankly, leftist sour-grapes. And the environmentalist wackos would say .... 'only momma Gaia owns this land😊🤣

The natives the land was stolen from stole it from other natives, who stole it from the tribes there before them, and so on. I wonder if there is a parcel of land in the world still occupied and ruled by the group of homo sapiens who originally populated it. Maybe an island somewhere? You are correct about the "might makes right" connection. The short answer to your "force over morality" point is that humans are a deeply flawed species, we have to deal with that somehow. Which will always be "poorly".

Brad K's avatar

Probably a very rare place where the original inhabitants still occupy it. Yes flawed because we are a developing species, eventually overcoming the impulse to merely survive by any means necessary and eventually live in a world where the pain of others is also our pain. This is to be our spiritual evolution I believe.

SteelJ's avatar

Is there evidence that spiritual evolution is actually happening? Seems like lately we're regressing, at least in the West.

Brad K's avatar

Yes, the idea of morality at all is a huge leap, before that was pure opportunism, there wasn't necessarily an idea of right or wrongdoing to others outside of the tribe (I am generalizing). Before Christ, most societal issues were blamed on scapegoats, and ritual sacrifice occurred widely. Much of this according to Rene Gerard, and Rudolf Steiner. Now ritual sacrifice only really happens in the shadows. Currently it looks like a regression I agree, but may take lifetimes to progress. We are in the age of materialism, and disconnection.

Happy Birthday AMERICA!! RIP Mr Kirk. It is so tired (stolen land/colonization), the attempt at cheery-picking ideas in history. Kirk's rebuke must be carried forward when Americans are confronted when this leftist/globalist fairy tale is raised.

This is prime example of why he was taken out

Charlie was set up from the beginning for death. His wife, Erika and JD Vance are siblings. Our U.S. Constitution is hanging by a thread and the general public have NO clue.

Dennis R Ninneman's avatar

Amazing revelations. Thank you for your valuable insights and story telling.

William Marchuk's avatar

The story is fact. I hope your comment was to the positive and not the negative, such as ridicule.

I keep asking myself are those who push back are either, simply ignorant, AI, accepted the COVID 19 SHOTS (BIOWEAPON) with the mRNA, that causes major confusion, brain fog and simply causes the mind to think FIRST to the negative.

MOREOVER, as retired also from the Federal level, we all need to educate ourselves on the Saul Alinsky's TACTICS. Understand, the tactics others use to try to twart the truth.

Dennis R Ninneman's avatar

Yes, it was tongue-in-cheek. I do agree with your mRNA crime against humanity and the Alinsky references. The sibling reference I thought was a little out there.

William Marchuk's avatar

Out there? It all depends on access to higher level knowledge.

Anne McKinney's avatar

Provide receipts please ... "access to higher level knowledge."

William Marchuk's avatar

Your question is proof of your ignorance.

The abbreviated version of The Declaration of Independence; "Dear Britain, Ef Off". This should be the starting point to all who would seek to suffocate you with "law". Live Free.

Cherylyn Kerley's avatar

Wow! Powerful messages! Jefferson's declaration reminds me of the 12 years of O.

Cherylyn Kerley's avatar

Listen to the audio of the Declaration of Independence, and you will hear the similarities.

Now, if you hid AwakeNotWoke you would be doing something.

SteelJ's avatar

You like echo chambers? Not me. Let everybody speak. None of us know it all.

Lynn's avatar

But, who is that person that speaks? A real human being?

TomL's avatar

Israel stole and continues to steal land under the fake argument that Abraham and their ancestors were given land all the way out to the Euphrates River. They are of course delusional.

The British wanted indigenous rights respected of the American Indian. They had an irrational king that could have worked out a negotiated settlement but failed.

The taxation was not onerous as libertarian Gary North wrote: https://www.garynorth.com/public/16833.cfm

The Fourth of July is not about a bunch of drunk Yahoos yelling about libertinism and the freedom to do anything they want as long as no one else is affected. Everything we do and fail to do affect others under an all powerful God, we will all have to give an account to Him.

Dennis R Ninneman's avatar

Hmmmmm ..... more rewriting of history?

Well said, now and then.

Praying that others will be enabled by Charlie's influence. Happy 250th Independence Day, everyone. Blessings.
