The Result of Color
I came across this post on Facebook and wanted to share it. And then want to talk about it . . . a lot.
WE HAVE A PROBLEM: This is a well written and thought-out article written by a 26 year old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who’s in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspecitve…
My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us!
I’m sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to “fix” the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around.
I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook’s, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we’ve become completely blind to it.Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.
These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don’t give them a second thought.
We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!!
Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ??Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, “An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity.”
Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in.
When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I’ve ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided.
My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let’s just say I didn’t have the popular opinion, but I digress.
Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country.
People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they’ve never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism.
Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn’t live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn’t see the rise and fall of socialism and communism.
We don’t know what it’s like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don’t have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it’s spreading like a plague.” #pleaseshare
Back in about 1966, Chairman Mao Tse Tung of China instituted a color revolution in China. Also translated as a cultural revolution, its goal was to preserve Chinese socialism by purging remnants of capitalist and traditional elements from Chinese society.
They did everything in their power to change the culture to align with their socialist viewpoints. From about 1966 to 1968, The Red Guard, infiltrated and attacked anyone and anything contrary to their beliefs. This included schools and gathering places and organizations homes and families. Think book burnings. Think destruction of religious and cultural items and objects and property. And not just things. But people as well.
And who were these Red Guards? Students mostly. By their own definition, they were not a specific group. They sprung up on their own and began wrecking havoc on society. Think it was like The Purge movie. But it went on for 2 years. And as for autonomous groups. Think Antifa. Thier own definition they are uncoordinated and are like mass uprisings. Except for the part of them being clandestinely funded and organized despite their definition.
The results of the Color Revolution were not well documented. Between 500,00 to 2,000,000 people were killed. A mere drop in the bucket compared to their 800 or so million citizens at the time. But how many killings and public hangings and floggings did it take to get the People in line with the new Socialist way of thinking???
I mention this Cultural Revolution in China in this context to remind people that there are elements who will stop at nothing to get what they want. And while what we are seeing with the kids in America today may not reach the level of 1966 China, you have to ask how far it can go. What is the tipping point?
Consider:
- The George Floyd riots of 2020
- Occupy Wall Street
- Black Lives Matter
- The Seattle Capitol Hill Free zone
- College Campus Anti Israel/Pro Palestine occupations and riots
- The Antifa occupation of Portland Oregon
- The anti-Trump protests, boycotts and rallies
If you think these organically started but good citizens rising up against oppression . . . then you have been watching too much mainstream News.
It is a fact of life that the collective left seeks to FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGE our country. Remember BHO saying, “we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.”
And he meant it. He was not the beginning. But he was the tipping point. He gained power and made changes that may have done irreparable damage to the mindset of the generation that grew up with it. Pay attention to the story I posted above. It was one GEN Zers take on the result of things.
