We Are Headed Towards the Ultimate Arrogance

We Are Headed Towards the Ultimate Arrogance - Todd Strandberg - https://www.raptureready.com/category/nearing-midnight/

 

There is no doubt in my mind that this current generation is the most arrogant in the history of our nation. It has become a virtue for people to openly express love for themselves. Thanks to tools like Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, many individuals have made vanity a full-time occupation.

 

Arrogance is the reason why the liberal media has become so continuously focused on Trump. Every reporter thinks they can singlehandedly destroy the President of the United States with the power of their own words. It doesn't matter that they are on a cable channel which only reaches 75,000 individuals. They believe they are so gifted in their verbal attacks on Trump, they assume the other 330 million citizens will soon see things their way.

 

Arrogance is why reporters are willing to share their spotlight with any oddball who has something negative to say about Trump. A favorite guest of CNN is porn star Stormy Daniels and her slimy lawyer Michael Avenatti. They have been on CNN nearly 80 times.

 

It would quickly become boring to have her come each time and say she had sex with the president, so they have to endlessly add to her résumé. Stormy Daniels went from one of the "president's chief adversaries" to a "feminist icon," and will now grace the pages of the fashion magazine bible - Vogue.

 

Daniels' lawyer Michael Avenatti is so full of himself; he said, "I will get to the truth and bring Trump to justice." What truth is he talking about? He represents a client who likely got paid to have sex with some John, blackmailed him for money, and after getting paid to keep her mouth shut, she violated the legal agreement. Avenatti thinks this whole embarrassing matter should qualify him to run for president in 2020.

 

The people in the media don't realize how stupid and gross it is to promote the Stormy Daniels matter because they are so blinded by arrogance. She is a porn star, which is degrading by itself. Daniels goes a level lower by starring in videos where she was degraded further by bondage sex scenes. Today, the press acts like she is Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm.

 

It would be hugely dishonest of me if I didn't include Trump in these examples of pride. We already know that he likes sleeping with porn stars and paying them off. Some kind of humble, honest attitude about this moral failing would be a great help, but Trump is incapable of showing humility. When Trump was asked last week to rate his presidency, he gave himself an A+. Trump views himself as a legal expert, so it's not hard to understand why he never had a lawyer that he hasn't fired at some point. He also said he shouldn't be impeached because the market would crash.

 

On that last point, Robert Mueller would probably act to bring down Trump even if he knew it would trigger a financial meltdown. He wants to be the great special prosecutor who took down the great Donald J. Trump. If Mueller gets his way, it should be a given that the Democrats would dynamite the Lincoln Memorial and erect one in his honor.

 

The arrogance of the left has become so profound, the liberty of people on the right is at great risk. Liberals think their view of the world is the only one that should be allowed. Since they have a monopoly on truth, they see the promotion of political diversity as the sanctioned evil.

 

Brian Amerige, a senior Facebook engineer, wrote in an internal memo post about this general view. He said, "We are a political monoculture that's intolerant of different views ... we claim to welcome all perspectives, but are quick to attack - often in mobs - anyone who presents a view that appears to be in opposition to left-leaning ideology." I'm guessing Brian Amerige's days at Facebook are limited.

 

In Hollywood, you can lose your job if you praise anyone who is on the right. Ben Shapiro frequently talks about what happens to celebrities who make the mistake of agreeing with his views. One producer made the mistake of praising Shapiro in a tweet, and the next day he was forced to apologize for the error.

 

The left is becoming so radical, we are not that far from the ultimate expression of arrogance - the point where people think their ideology is so superior to yours that you don't deserve to live. This form of egotism can easily translate all over the world; explaining the massive purge of tribulation believers.

 

"Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me" (Matthew 24:9).
