Have modern Liberals abandoned individualism and embraced collectivism? Modern liberalism is a development within liberal ideology that has revised some of the ideas of classical liberalism. Some classical liberals argue that modern liberalism has abandoned individualism and embraced collectivism to the extent that it has abandoned a belief in the free market and the minimal state and endorsed economic and social intervention. An alternative view is that modern liberalism has built on and revised core liberal ideas rather than abandoned them, much like the relationship between traditional conservatism and the New Right. The two schools of thought in this case agree on the same core values and goals, but the way in which they go about attempting to achieve them is different. Thus the modern liberal case for government is based on a belief in developmental individualism (linked to human flourishing), and positive freedom (viewed as personal fulfilment). The modern liberal case for state intervention is an equivocal one: they only support intervention when individuals can’t help themselves, usually because of social disadvantage. Collectivism is the belief that collective social action is morally and practically superior to individual self-striving. http://www.markedbyteachers.com/gcse/politics/have-modern-liberals-abandoned-individualism-and-embraced-collectivism.html MSM Propaganda The Mainstream Media Is Propaganda In his book Abuse of Language, Abuse of Power, the German Catholic philosopher Josef Pieper wrote the following: “That the existential realm of man could be taken over by pseudorealities whose fictitious nature threatens to become indiscernible is truly a depressing thought. And yet, the Platonic nightmare, I hold, possesses an alarming contemporary relevance. For the general public is being reduced to a state where people are not only unable to find out about the truth but also become unable even to search for the truth because they are satisfied with deception and trickery that have determined their convictions, satisfied with a fictitious reality created by design through the abuse of language.” https://www.westernjournalism.com/the-mainstream-media-is-propaganda/ Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton Says Guns At Church Could Protect Against Shootings The attorney general of Texas, Ken Paxton, said this about the mass shooting in Sutherland Springs. This is going to happen again. But Paxton said on "Fox News Sunday," at least we have the opportunity to have conceal carry. And so there's always the opportunity the gunman will be taken out before he has the opportunity to kill very many people. Attorney General Paxton, who's a Republican, joins us from Beaumont, Texas.

The Covid Scam Is Unravelling The Covid Scam is collapsing across the entire front much like the Wehrmacht after Stalingrad. Mask mandates and lockdowns are on the comeback because health authorities now admit that the Covid vaccines do not offer effective protection, especially against what are called “new variants.” What is the point of a Covid passport when the vaccine does not protect and the vaccinated have to wear masks? https://www.rt.com/usa/530394-cdc-vaccinated-masks-indoors/ Presstitute scum in the US falsely report that the “new outbreak” of Covid is among the unvaccinated young, and the push is on to vaccinate all the youth. But the facts tell a different story. In the UK, for example, new Covid cases are exploding among the fully vaccinated, rising 40 percent in one week while new covid cases among the unvaccinated are declining by 22%. https://www.theburningplatform.com/2021/07/31/the-covid-scam-is-unraveling/ Tucker predicts end to COVID hysteria as stupidity reaches critical mass, says it’s too much even for Dems Fox News’ Tucker Carlson said he believes that 2022 is the year when the COVID pandemic and the madness associated with it will finally end. On “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Monday, the host laid out the framework for the return of sanity in American society, saying that ultimate responsibility lay with the American people, who must demand truth from their leaders, especially as it relates to the destruction of social norms, civility and commerce in exchange for the false notion of perpetual safety. https://www.bizpacreview.com/2022/01/04/tucker-predicts-end-to-covid-hysteria-as-stupidity-reaches-critical-mass-says-its-too-much-even-for-dems-1184100/ FRIGHTENING: WHO Joins EU and Changes Direction — Suddenly Warns Against Taking Continued COVID Booster Shots On Tuesday European regulators warned that the COVID booster shots could adversely affect the immune system. This was a huge admission for European officials after pushing booster shots just weeks earlier. What happened? Then later on Tuesday the World Health Organization joined the EU and also condemned the continued booster regimen. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/frightening-joins-eu-changes-direction-suddenly-warns-taking-continued-covid-booster-shots/ Hospitals are overflowing with fully vaccinated patients while the unvaccinated remain healthy! Shhhh ou can only push back the truth for just so long. Here is an article and a related video by a P/A, Deborah Conrad, who provides a first-hand account of what is actually going on at a New York hospital, were sadly she no longer is allowed to work. Note it’s not just Covid-19 anymore that’s filling up the hospital beds. The below video is from Del Bigtree’s Highwire, where h ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XszEsUbPsY
