“The shepherds of Christ’s church should not only expose the errors of progressive Critical Theory (disciple Christians on how to handle that wicked philosophy) but also condemn its counterfeit on the Right with equal clarity. If we only confront Cultural Marxism when it comes wrapped in progressive language when it’s gained damning institutional power, while ignoring it when it arrives dressed in conservative rhetoric because it’s in its infancy, we have abandoned the very principle we claim to champion and paradoxically delay the inevitable. The “Christian nationalists” want people to believe that any criticism of them is merely criticism of honorable patriotism. It’s not.”
(Mikale Olson) If you ask the average American why the country feels so different than it did 20 or 30 years ago, you’ll probably get a hundred different answers.
Some will point to partisan politics. Others will blame social media. Some will say it’s the economy. Others will blame Hollywood, universities, or the news. Many, all the above.
Most people can feel that something fundamental has changed. What many struggle to explain is how it happened.
The answer is that these changes were not random. Much of what we’re experiencing today was the result of a long-term strategy.
For decades, activists on the radical Left understood something many conservatives ignored. If you want to change a nation, you don’t begin by winning elections. You begin by shaping the institutions that shape the people.
