The only "rare sats" are non-KYC sats, with a 100% State-blind provenance.

The study of duties, rights, and liberty is the responsibility of every human made in the image of God.

Study up, stand up, speak up.

>The fanatic for Calvinism was a fanatic for liberty; and, in the moral warfare for freedom, his creed was his most faithful counselor and his never-failing support.

-- George Bancroft, historian

Q. 74. What is adoption?

A. Adoption is an act of the free grace of God, in and for his only Son Jesus Christ, whereby all those that are justified are received into the number of his children, have his name put upon them, the Spirit of his Son given to them, are under his fatherly care and dispensations, admitted to all the liberties and privileges of the sons of God, made heirs of all the promises, and fellow heirs with Christ in glory.

While I have fundamental differences with Dr. Boot, the book is a compendium of valuable information and insight.😃

No, hadn't heard of it--though I've heard of the author. Thanks for the heads up!

The Frankfurt school Marxists did not understand why the masses still rose up and fought the wars of the elites. They turned to Freud and studied "The Authoritarian Personality," concluding that patriarchy in the family lingered into adulthood and led to people following their "strong leaders." Patriarchy was to blame, thus patriarchy needed to be "smashed."

But how?

Enter: the Italian political theorist Antonio Gramsci, who changed the Marxist focus from economic materialism to culture. Instead of Marx's "seize the means of production," Gramsci redirected to "seizing the means of *cultural* production." His strategy was to attack the predominant cultural hegemony and replace it with a new one, focusing on law, family, media, education, and entertainment.

Neo-Marxists like Marcuse (also of the Frankfurt School) realized that they could not recruit the majority of Americans to their classical Marxist cause simply because free market capitalism (of a flavor) had lifted middle Americans to a very comfortable standard of living--so he advocated turning to "the ghettos" and the marginalized to amass his army. Hence the rise of "grievance studies."

-----

Though most of our institutions have been captured by this agenda, I believe the vast majority of common people are rejecting this Neo-Marxism, just as our forefathers rejected Classical Marxism. I pray this loud and decisive No! spreads from sea to shining sea and beyond.

Hope remains...

"Mars" in that series was the inspiration for the Imperial Death March (Star Wars) -- it's almost plagiarism
