This isn’t a Coup, it’s a Crucifixion!
Crucifixion: extreme and painful punishment, affliction, or suffering.
There are those in America who will crucify anyone and everyone who does not agree with them. Today telling the truth is no longer a defense. As George Orwell wrote:
“In a time of universal deceit — telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
Americans are experiencing a period in our history where the rule of law and due process are no longer valid constructs.
America has devolved into a state of universal deceit.
Americans are being deceived by those who want power more than they want justice. Those who demand “social justice” want it for themselves but not for others. Those who demand “tolerance” are intolerant. When tolerance becomes a one way street it leads to cultural suicide.
Those who say they seek “democracy” actually have the ultimate goal of turning America toward tyranny and into a dictatorship. They demand that all others compromise their beliefs and principles. But compromising one’s beliefs and principles is the art of losing slowly.
The basic constructs of every civilized American citizen are under attack, from the traditional nuclear family to our system of fairness. Deceit is how people gain and keep power. The big lies have now become public policy.
Uncontested Absurdities
Former Governor Mike Huckabee listed the following four ideologies championed by many political candidates:
- “Separation of church and state” – the lie that silences prayer at school and keeps the Ten Commandments out of the statehouse.
- “Acceptance” – requiring Christians to deny the Bible and participate in gay weddings or have their businesses closed.
- “Women’s’ choice” – forcing Christians to pay for the killing of unborn life – a baby created in the image of God.
- “Equality” – calling males females and females males – violating the belief that gender is not determined by man but assigned by God.
Ayn Rand wrote:
The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. They come to be accepted by degrees, by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other – until one day when they are suddenly declared to be the country’s official ideology.
Daily Americans turn on their TVs, open their newspaper or visit their social media sites and enter the “theatre of the absurd.”
In my column March 22nd, 2018 titled The Top 20 Uncontested Absurdities of Today I wrote that uncontested absurdities have become today’s slogans. I created a list the top 20 uncontested absurdities:
- You are a racist.
- You are homophobic.
- You are Islamophobic.
- You are a misogynist.
- A male can choose to be a female and visa versa or both.
- The nuclear family is bad, divorce/single parenthood is good.
- God is dead.
- Islam is the religion of peace.
- Believing there is no religion (Atheism) is a religion.
- Hate speech is any speech I disagree with or that causes me to be uncomfortable.
- Facts no longer matter.
- Truth is relative.
- Me, Myself and I feeling good is the only thing that counts.
- People don’t kill people, only guns kill people.
- Welfare is better than work.
- Self defense is bad.
- Killing the unborn is necessary to save the planet.
- Communism is better than Capitalism.
- I need to be protected from free speech.
- In order to “save humanity” we must give government more power.
This list reads like the policy platform of one of America’s major political parties. We are, for the first time in our history witnessing the crucifixion of all those who stand for America’s sovereignty, values and culture. We are witnessing a time when every American who is telling the truth is crucified. Crucifixion has become the new normal.
Conclusion
Crucifixion for expressing one’s religious, cultural or political beliefs is an atrocity.
Voltaire said, “Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”
There are those, in their thirst for power, who are willing to commit atrocities.
A battle is raging across America. A battle that pits good against evil. Evil is not winning. Just look at what is happening in Hong Kong, in France with the Yellow Jackets and in Iran.
I conclude with a March 8th, 1983 speech given by President Ronald Reagan to the National Association of Evangelicals:
We must never ever allow anyone to create an evil empire within America!

Thank you Dr. Rich, so right you are!!
Terrific article and so true ! Socialist Democrats in our Govt and their allies in the media have turned our world upside down with these unethical, immoral and often criminal uncontested absurdities for which they’re not held accountable.
One has just to watch the disgusting Impeachment Inquisition led by Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler and backed up by the media to see this!
Those of us on the right side against this evil must engage and fight against this coup/crucifixion if we want our Constitutional Republic and rule of law to survive.
As you state above “In a time of universal deceit — telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
Royal calls them socialist democrats. I think, more accurately, they are democrat socialists. Socialist being the primary descriptor and democrat the modifier.
What a brilliant article! Thank you Dr. Rich Swier. You did identify the America’s Socialist mafia, which is fighting a unique political system left to us by our Founding Fathers. Thank you and God bless you.
