Although most people do not want to consider the implications of the “soft” totalitarianism under which the United States is living right now, those who grew up in Soviet bloc countries immediately recognize the dangers.

Tyrants throughout history have known that one of the easiest ways to conquer a people is to force isolation among those who are targeted. Fear, arbitrary rules, and today’s cancel culture pit individuals and groups against each other.

When “wokeness” first came onto the scene as a general description of modern-day Marxism, many people thought it was just another cultural revolution fad that would eventually flame out. Unfortunately, the flames are getting stronger, both literally and figuratively, as we watch our country being attacked from every possible angle.

Cultural revolutions are insidious and not just because they seek to change the way people think, write, speak, and act. They are also dangerous because they are fueled by self-righteous sanctimoniousness, expressed in seemingly innocuous terms such as “social activism,” “equality,” and “fairness.”

Loud and aggressive bullies, especially those who run roughshod through today’s cancel culture, are always counting on the quiet majority’s reticence to speak up.

The New York Times Magazine’s dubious “1619 Project,” which promotes an unrecognizable premise that our country was founded to perpetuate slavery, might be coming to our children’s schools this fall.

It often takes someone with experience outside the arena to accurately diagnose what is going on inside. Ileana Johnson Paugh escaped Communist Romania in the 1970s to come to the United States — a country that was free and civil, and where opportunities were limitless for those who sought them. Now, forty years later, she notes the unsettling similarities between the violence in our cities and the Nazis’ infamous Kristallnacht or “Night of Broken Glass”. The ideologies and left-wing mob tactics are the same; let us pray the results will be different.
