    Here’s a taste of their plan.

    “Unaccountable federal spending is the secret lifeblood of the Great Awokening. Nearly every power center held by the Left is funded or supported, one way or another, through the bureaucracy by Congress. Colleges and school districts are funded by tax dollars. The Administrative State holds 100 percent of its power at the sufferance of Congress, and its insulation from presidential discipline is an unconstitutional fairy tale spun by the Washington Establishment to protect its turf. Members of Congress shield themselves from constitutional accountability often when the White House allows them to get away with it. Cultural institutions like public libraries and public health agencies are only as “independent” from public accountability as elected officials and voters permit.”

    "Pornography, manifested today in the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children, for instance, is not apolitical Gordian knot inextricably binding up disparate claims about free speech, property rights, sexual liberation, and child welfare. It has no claim to First Amendment protection. Its purveyors are child predators and misogynistic exploiters ofwomen. Their product is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime. Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders.

    And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered. In our schools, the question of parental authority over their children’s education is a simple one: Schools serve parents, not the other way around. That is, of course, the best argument for universal school choice-a goal all conservatives and con- servative Presidents must pursue. But even before we achieve that long-term goal, parents’ rights as their children’s primary educators should be non-negotiable in American schools. States, cities and counties, school boards, union bosses, princi- pals, and teachers who disagree should be immediately cut off from federal funds.

    The noxious tenets of “critical race theory” and “gender ideology" should be excised from curricula in every public school in the country. These theories poison our children, who are being taught on the one hand to affirm that the color of their skin fundamentally determines their identity and even their moral status while on the other they are taught to deny the very creatureliness that inheres in being human and consists in accepting the givenness of our nature as men or women.

    Allowing parents or physicians to “reassign” the sex of a minor is child abuse and must end. For public institutions to use taxpayer dollars to declare the superiority or inferiority of certain races, sexes, and religions is a violation of the Constitu- tion and civil rights law and cannot be tolerated by any government anywhere in the country."

        The word salad is designed to evoke emotion, not to be understood. The faithful already know the rules, plans, and ideals.

        Religion. Creatureliness and givenness is a direct reference to creationism and is meant to be a conversation ender. No matter what it is you want, they can say God didn’t intend it and that’s the end of the conversation unless you want to discuss your hatred of God instead.

        Of course it’s only certain people who only speak from self serving intuitions who get to decide what is natural and what is the creators will. Somehow it’s always something that serves their own ego, imagine that… almost like God is some bullshit they made up to distract from their lack of good arguments.

      Half of that shit doesn’t many any sense. These people are straight up just saying a bunch of bullshit that sounds fancy, but is still bullshit.

      The Administrative State holds 100 percent of its power at the sufferance of Congress, and its insulation from presidential discipline is an unconstitutional fairy tale spun by the Washington Establishment to protect its turf.

      1. wtf is “the Administrative State”?

      2. “Sufferance of Congress” what?? That’s what Congress decides. Additionally, Republicans currently hold the power of the purse. They also held both chambers in Obama’s last years and for Trump’s first two years. They didn’t do shit about whatever the hell “the Administrative State” is.

      3. “its insulation from presidential discipline” What are they even talking about‽‽ What the hell is presidential discipline?

      4. “is an unconstitutional fairy tale spun by the Washington Establishment to protect its turf.” The Constitution clearly states the structure of our government and the responsibilities of each branch. Also, wtf is “the Washington Establishment”??

      I can’t even get through the first paragraph. This is complete non-sense.

        Seriously. The sad thing is that it works (see: Jordan Peterson). Stupid person’s idea of how a smart person speaks.

      Yep. That’s all about individual freedom. Get rid of the oppressive police state instituted by the left, yeah!

      These people are serious, folks. Unless sane people wake up, pay attention, and act, we are screwed!
