BEN STEIN sums it up: "I never dreamed that I would have to face the prospect of not living in the United States of America, at least not the one I have known all my life. I have never wished to live anywhere else. This is my home and I was privileged to be born here. But today I woke up and as I had my morning coffee, I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what.
I say, something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same. I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life--so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind! You can't justify this insanity:
• If a guy pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him. • Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America. • Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good. • It was cool for Joe Biden to "blackmail" the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it. • Twenty is too young to drink a beer, but eighteen is old enough to vote. • People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves. • People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees. • Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated. • Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcome. • $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not. • If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free. • People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President. • We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us. • Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now. • Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights. • And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"?!
Nothing makes sense anymore - no values, no morals, and no civility. People are dying of a Chinese virus, but it's racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China. We are clearly living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong but killing unborn babies is AOK! Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water, and is sinking fast. Speak up!"
Isaiah 5:20 (KJV) - Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
This is EXACTLY how I feel!! Thank you Mr. Stein!!!!!!
We are in the times of Noah ...but what a winter we shall have after the fall....
L.S.D. in the water supply.
This ! ! ! !
Why can't people see this?
Thank you Ben Stein for putting my feelings into words for me.
Great article, Ben, but, by your own admission, you voted for Obama, so you helped set us on this path. Have you offered up an apology for that?
Ben is likely one of them.
I don't think he would have funded Expelled and let people watch it online for free if he was helping the other side. He was pointing out the SJW mafia in control of science and academia long before it was acknowledged anywhere.
There is no one so blind as those who will not see
You said it well fren. Just as in Isaiah 5:20.
Ben, it sounds like the world is upside down.
When they wake up there will be some PISSED off M-fers ready for some public hangings and firing squads.
Oo you believe wrong is right When you turn the world upside down Wrong is right wrong is right I'll never believe all the crap they say Wrong is right wrong is right Who can tell what it's like to be insane Thanks to Accept in 1985. I'm sure Udo wasn't thinking of our upside down world back then but some of these lyrics fit.
