No Half Measures - Learning Lessons

Are Americans Capable Of This, Much Less Applying What They Learn?

This post was born of a comment I made, to a superb note

asked for it to be restacked, so I decided to give it air here. Glad I did, because without knowing it, the story behind that picture, tied in nicely to my point.

That picture is indicative of America (and the Western world) today. We’re riddled with the cancers of corruption, perversion, deviance, radicalism, opportunists, sexual abhorrence, immorality, laziness and apathy. Because these things have all been willful choices on the parts of the respective populations of wester countries, it is collectively our faults, we find ourselves in this life or death struggle.

It remains to be seen if the American people have learned the expensive and devastating lessons that come, when the responsibility of citizenship is ignored, shirked and run from.

What is happening now in our government/country, is akin to being shown X-rays, CT scans, MRI images, and videos from endoscopies and colonoscopies that show a body riddled with cancer - that has been growing for decades.

The specialists say the chances are good for survival and recovery (above 70%), but the treatment plan will be hell.

The question is, will Americans save their country by supporting the treatment it’s going through now and what is to come - or - will they do what they’ve always done and choose the convenient and comfortable path of ignoring the corruption, destruction and death, that is poised to kill their country??

Freedom, Liberty and Prosperity have never been free. Sometimes the cost is bodies on a battlefield. However, most of the time the cost is what no one ever shows up for - daily work, engagement and responsibility - where understanding, managing, staffing and controlling their government(s) are concerned.

The price for Freedom, Liberty and Prosperity cannot be paid in laziness, apathy and ignorance, but we’ve been maniacally depositing those things into the countries account, for generations.

We either stand and demand these decades old cancers be painfully scraped out or this country dies. We were given a narrow reprieve on Nov 5th, and will see it squandered, if the people do not show up!!

Fight the BS rhetoric from your leftist family, friends, co-workers and regime media.

Do not go back to sleep.

Do not sit back and wallow in the regime made distractions.

No Half Measures!!

Recovery is possible, however, it takes effort, stubbornness, cussedness, dedication, resolve, courage, and more than anything ACTION.

As if to prove my point, the picture I used for the header was just a picture, I thought would make an impact and tie into the cancer analogy. Little did I know that the story behind it was the micro of the macro, America is going through right now.

The amazing, brave and beautiful young woman, behind that scan is named Georgia McLennan. She was diagnosed in 2016, after being told her pains “were all in her head”. She chose to act and beat the seemingly fatal, metastasized cancer.

The latest article I could find on her was from 2020, which I will include below.

She teaches a lesson to all, that applies to health and wellness, finances, relationships, challenges and yes the political dystopia we are living through. Had she sat back and done nothing, in the face of an entity that meant to kill her, she would have 100% perished.

The same will happen to the people of western countries. Americans in particular, have been presented with the stark and chilling diagnosis of their government, country and individual futures - will they act based upon the lesson of the past 4 years and choose to eradicate the cancers that riddle their government - or will they do as they’ve always done and wallow in their laziness, apathy and distraction. If they choose the latter, their death and that of their country is 100% assured.

Here is Georgia’s Story and the later follow-up article I found.

Would that 76 million American voters possessed the courage of this woman and chose to shoulder the responsibility of citizenship and then act - as if their lives and that of their country depended on it.
