Apostate Conservatism – Adopting the Holier than Thou Attitude
Elitist attitudes amongst the so-called conservatives in the failing republican institution:
It now appearing that the only issue this observer has with the pointed invectives of the Dr's memo towards a failed (now looking in twenty-twenty hindsight, Yep; 2020) ideological (self-involved and infected) mindset, is its later than helpful timing. From here and from which; what should have been a no-brainer attitude of protecting and preserving the people that entrusted their very livelihood to 'conservative dialogue,' but we find all are equally betrayed as if the democratic apparatchik counted on the useless republic institutionalists for help.
Now let this be clear, and as most in this forum are aware of this observer's proclivities towards the overview of Christian priorities, it is no less obvious here that the Divine appeal the original governmental construct of this nation was to protect and preserve religious liberties that were being oppressed in native lands and escape to America seemed to provide that protection. That is now under threat here in America as it has never been before, not only from secularistic attitudes found in just about everywhere from see to sea, but in religious communities as well as truth faith is betrayed also.
Conservatism has been infiltrated, once considered the basis of observing right over evil, establishing moral guidance in issues of governance, and the rule of law over the unruly mobs running rampant through once safe communities, spreading fear like the pandemic that is not their mantle of disobedience. Conservatism as a nominal attitude of governance has lost all creditability; worse yet, the holier than thou attitude of the institutionalists have abandoned the people to totalitarian overthrow. America now is abandoned to the precept of defiled powers of empire as was and is seen in Europe.
No wonder the Green Deal is so appealing to the EU, et al.
