Stepping Back From The Abyss To Reset: How Did We Get Here, Where Are We Going, What Does It Mean?

Righting The Ship Of State Amidst A Cultural Delamination of Epic Proportions: Undoing The Stepford Training Program Indoctrination Of Youth And Exposing The Liars

I inadvertently established somewhat of an informal societal barometer or measuring device-albeit subjective-in the way I store articles of interest that often inspire or motivate the Max’s angst sufficient to result in an article or two.

Creating folders on items of interest that make for the substance of future articles was never envisioned as anything other than a convenient–and loosely organized—reference file.

Over time some files proved too micro to be useful and led to a more macro discrimination to put a finer point on person, place or thing in terms of a category. For instance, a letter people or LBGTQMOUSE file and an LSMBTG(ANF) file which has expanded well beyond the intended topic of the lamestream and social media collusion against Trump to encompass big tech, government, academia, non-government officials (often funded by government in the form of USAID) and foreign (often also funded by USAID) also paid by taxpayers to go after that Bad Orange Man…

The number of highlights/lowlights by category in terms of potential newsworthy (angst or rant-worthy) stories—as evidenced by headlines or stories that gain attention by emerging from the muck of everyday life into a headline via Fakebook/chat/X item/Substack or whatever the source and means, eventually feeds a metric of some sort in terms of pure poundage—numbers—on an informal scale sufficient to become noticeable.

Which in simplest terms means that headlines related to—for instance–letter people—as evidenced by the number of web page entries saved in my LGBTQMOUSE file during the Biden years–was leading the pack during that timeframe in terms of the number of entries related to that topic.

For any paying attention it was blatantly apparent that the other letter people-the LSMBTGANF—were making a concerted and likely well-funded effort—to highlight the plight of what had historically been less than 3% of society to elevate their “cause.”

To the point where we began to see evidence in terms of surveys and polling that unprecedented numbers of youth believed they were gay (and many also believed they were witches or some type of animal or furry.) Up to 16 percent of the youngest and apparently either most gullible, propagandized or dumbest generation, the apparent target of unmitigated dogma and a bombardment of deliberate intent which they responded to along the lines of a perversion of  Stockholm Syndrome.

I wrote a series of articles on decoding the letter speak (which has timed off our site over time) when it became blatantly apparent that a deliberate effort was underway targeting youth but also conducted in ways reminiscent of a military information operations campaign.

That was deliberately obfuscating the operation by using language that was at the very best confusing and at worst dogmatically following Saul Alinsky tactics intended to isolate youth from parents by indoctrinating them in increasing nuanced and bizarre language beyond the comprehension of their elders that therefore convinced them their parents were ignorant (as in lacking knowledge) and simply out of touch.

Which was the intended message for kids: listen to me/us, your grandparents and parents are out of the mainstream dinosaurs.

Culminating in things like the Biden White House celebrating letter people during the traditional WH Easter Egg Hunt for children and this story that might be the all-time obfuscation dog bites man headline of all time.

That was then and this is now. Since Trump II emerged, we have seen a precipitous—and welcome—drop off in the letter celebrating assault on our senses. Replaced by an unfortunate rise in two categories that are just as—if not moreso—disturbing that now represent two separate bourgeoning files.

Including the original Culture Lunacy which begat the Democrat Lunacy files.

Which in terms of scale, magnitude and disturbing factors have not only gotten worse (with multiple, daily entries) but also are somehow more disturbing than the aforementioned lunacy with letter people news because these are real people doing truly crazy and disturbing things.

Whereas one could argue many of the letter people articles were pablum—blather—near harmless and silly things intended to keep letter people in the news and at the forefront of societal thought.

To be clear the horse now leading the pack is increasingly under the category-the heading of-Cultural Lunacy.

Which is somewhat of an ironic double-edged sword in that I was initially heartened by the drop and optimistic at being able to stop filling the Biden Long Article file and the letter people–LGBTQMOUSE file–the top two for a number of years.

The Biden administration was simply its own category of consistent lunacy—which never letup throughout his tenure. To the point where I stopped writing about it for fear of being accused of picking on the handicapped.

But I became increasingly disturbed by the sheer number of daily incidents making their way into what I initially started to capture that was originally the odd and rare crazy examples of US society and citizens acting like–well–lunatics: unhinged, unprovoked, seemingly crazy-town, looney-toons behavior.

In reaffirming the emerging fact pattern I re-remembered that I wanted to separate out the political drama from true cultural lunacy. Which is when I realized that democrat lunacy was becoming a separate, clearly distinguishable stand-alone category of its own and I made it so.

An evaluation of the content of the two “lunacy” files reveals that many if not all of these “incidents” stem from either outright 4-alarm level lies that have been told, repeated, passed-on, and believed, mostly the product of our institutions–the LSMBTGANF.

Or the propaganda that passes for education these days by academia looking to perpetuate refinements of what could be termed the “hippy, anti-society, racial justice, Vietnam model” of the 1960s.

I don’t want to get sidetracked trying to prove the above is a thing but would offer some of the legacy references and leave the details for another article (Saul Alinsky’s Rules For Radicals, Abby Hoffman’s Steal this Book, MaryAnn Wynkoop Dissent In The Heartland, Mark Rudd, Underground: My Life with SDS and the Weathermen, Fugitive Days, A Memoir Bill Ayers, etc.)

Many of the most radical leaders of the 1960s inexplicably went on to become distinguished and venerated academics whose influences in many of our leading secondary education institutes continues through their protégés today.

They will not go down as leading lights that improved education in America, but rather as dogmatic political idealogues whose main claim to fame has been adopting dubious causes and touting failed communism and socialism tenets covered with ice cream and chocolate sauce for their gullible students.

Our parents either unwittingly coddled and allowed this to happen or it was a bent of academia that took root through natural courses of societal trends led by the carnage of the draft and the idjiotcy that was our government Vietnam policy.

A blending of causes leveraging the peace and free-love era of the hippies and drug counter/under culture emboldened by the feminist movement, the Black Liberation Movement violence and anti-establishment cause célèbres witting or unwittingly pushing leftist causes that persist to this day and—in fact—has seen somewhat of an inexplicable social cleansing and resurgence of late.

Talking about Hanoi Jane Fonda, Communist activist Angela Davis, Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers who was somewhat of a mentor associated with Barrack Obama, and others I prefer not to name but you can see and hear daily being touted by the LSMBTGANF or spewing hate and discontent in Podcastastan.

It almost doesn’t matter where the messaging came from. What is more important is to figure out how it is being promoted and propagated and expose it through messaging that points out the stupidity of it all. With the most disturbing evidence being the recent examples by either political leaders or academia and Podcastastan practitioners.

Dan Bongino is advocating the idea of “sticking it to” these idjiots pushing the stupidity which include many former leading lights of republican or conservative thought like Meghan Kelly, Tucker Carlson and others that include former republicans who have seemingly fallen off the bandwagon but are suspiciously funded by former foes or enemies.

Sticking their messaging to them in their own words is exactly the right technique and approach. I wrote about this being Senator Kennedy’s brilliant tactic called operation “Let them speak,” which he first coined about AOC but has become increasingly relevant to use against democrats in general, but in particular democrat socialists and their supporters.

I should advise upfront that over four decades of military and government (and contractor) experience has made me an optimistic pessimist, although one of my bosses often referred to me as a cynic.

Excuse me for thinking and pointing out that people who have had the mission to deliver things for a decade or more and have simply never delivered anything are not likely to suddenly deliver the next thing just because we asked for it and they said yes.

These democrat socialists under the big democratic tent are touting theories, principles, and ideas that have never delivered the rosy outcomes being promised.

Not unlike government entities that have the mission but do not deliver the goods. Led by those poorest examples, our elected officials–congress—who have once again failed to produce a budget for 2027: one job.

Many folks with opinions either conveniently forget or simply don’t know that the US government fiscal year for 2027 started on 1 Oct 2026.

Congress does not have until 31 December 2026 to pass a budget. And-shockingly-it’s the same every year and they fail to get the job done on time every year.

Am I a cynic for pointing that out—having mentioned back in March 2026 that it was very unlikely this congress would pass a budget on time with all the distractions ongoing?

Or is that along the lines of observations based on history, performance and previous failures over the past five decades?

Pointing out such a failure is not and does not create or contribute to the problem. If doing so makes me a cynic, then pass me the hat and I will proudly wear it.

Actually, in the most idjiotic case imaginable that reflects the problem, what was asked for (during a time I was attending school) was called a “decoupled workstation.”

My first week back I was asked to attend a progress meeting on the topic: I was fascinated that it was touted as a “new approach.” Particularly when I could not get a clear explanation about the “what:” it was a new approach to what, the analysis that had been done for over 100 years???

The acquisition lead briefed the proposed concept and the status of the ongoing effort. I thought I misheard them and asked what possible use such a thing would be if it wasn’t “coupled” up to our enterprise that provided the workflow necessary for analysts to do their jobs?

They looked at me like I had something growing out of my forehead. Taking the silence for surprise at the question, I asked who is the dumbarse that asked you to do this? Could have heard a pin drop when my boss said that many of the analysts had asked her to experiment with such a capability.

Which will likely not have the intended impact akin to what these socialists and communists are touting to our kids and young adults who have never been taught the history of these concepts and ideas and therefore think it is different and must therefore be better, because in their view things are not working now for them: so why not try something different?

The problem being that–much like our analysts whose workflow is enabled by systems that have been custom-built over the years to deliver their work to them, along with the tools they need in the form of information, data, historical reporting, etc.

Delivered to them at their workstations to optimize their time and output. These analysts would have no idea how to gather the information needed to do their jobs if it was not available via the workstation they have been trained to use.

Much like an automobile mechanic who gets an automobile in a maintenance bay, with the tools and supplies needed to do the work in the most expeditious way possible in terms of how they have been trained to do the work.

Only in this case the customer just drives in, and the mechanic starts with, “What is going on with the car?” No workflow process with a screener and scheduler, no work bay, no tools, no supplies, no machines, nothing. Just the car and the mechanic: a fresh start at the process.

A project idea that had a lot in common with the ridicularity being pushed by the modern democrat aligned socialist party that would have foolish young adults believe their dogma because it matches what has apparently been taught to them over the years in glowing terms, rather than with the stark reality of the actual results from failed experiments around the world for hundreds of years that are the poster children for such attempts.

If you have advisors whose job in life is-well-to advise you and attempt to help, but your definition of that term means saying yes all the time, you will likely end up thinking the worst of the people trying to help you when the results don’t turn out well and the after action reveals that somebody involved in making that decision turned out to be a dumbarse.

That screen door on the submarine that seemed like such a good idea was not. It’s like that hero shot in golf that must find a miraculous path through trees, where the last positive thought is “trees are 90% air.” But the rejoinder is “so is a screen door:” punch it out and fight for par.

A golfer pays a caddy to do all manner of things-take care of their clubs, provide advice, counsel, a second opinion, help and “schtuff.” Some golfers subscribe to the philosophy that a caddy should “show up, keep up and shut up.” There is almost no correlation of such a relationship between championship golfers and their caddies.

Just as there is no correlation or example of a successful socialist society employing the techniques being touted like new ideas by these 21st century socialist idjiots who the democrat party is embracing and welcoming into the tent.
