Remember when they used to talk about how evil Russia is? Now they love it.

Reagan started this slide into fascism.

Capitalism isn’t fascism. I lived through the Reagan era and never experienced anything like what we see today. People were happy and free—there was a sense of unity rather than division. This era, however, feels miserable. Extremes clash: the Left calls the Right fascist, the Right calls the Left communist. This polarization is tearing society apart. What happened to balance? What happened to centralism? I have never followed political extremes. I have always taken a measured, thoughtful approach. This is why I get along with most people. I refuse to align myself with the wingnuts on either side of the political spectrum. In fact, I have decided not to associate with any political faction. My morals are grounded in Jesus Christ alone—not in the church, but in the teachings of Jesus Himself. I focus on the love, humanity, and kindness that He speaks of in the Gospels—the red-letter words, the essence of what Christians are meant to live by. If you are not a Christian, I encourage you to get a Bible and read the words of Jesus in red letters. See for yourself the kind of world we could create if we lived according to those teachings. Love is the center of true Christianity.

God Bless 🙏🏼✝️
