Thought Police


Our corporate thought police have been working overtime, and from the look of it, they are only beginning.

Corporate America has circumvented the first Amendment by appointing itself the thought police over employees and associates who do not adhere strictly to the "rules" of the current orthodoxy. It administers its ruthless justice -- Cultural Revolution style -- through the destruction of employee livelihoods and careers.

The new corporate thought police are merciless; they do not accept apologies, however groveling. Perhaps, in the future, corporations will have "reeducation" departments, as in China or the former Soviet Union, for those who still have the courage to open their minds and their mouths.
Sweden has been steeped in political correctness for decades. The country's failed immigration policies, which have had multiple negative consequences, as reported by Gatestone Institute herehereherehere and here, have long been taboo and those who criticized the policies were, in the words of Ulf Kristersson, leader of the Moderate Party, reviled and frozen out. In addition, Sweden's hate speech laws have seen people who have criticized Swedish migration policies and their consequences on social media sentenced and finedfor "inciting hatred".
In the United States, people used to stand up for freedom of speech as an inviolable liberty -- until recently. While free speech has been highly unappreciated on US campuses for years, it still appeared to be a liberty that most Americans appreciate. This appreciation no longer seems to be generally the case, at least not in corporate America.
In the past two weeks alone, corporate America got rid of the following people for their "thought crimes":

Scott
America is spent, the once proud nation has fallen
morals spent, guns rule, justice for the corporates, mass incarceration
for the poor 2.2 million, the highest in the western world these figures do not lie...gods eye will look away, once very supportive nations are looking away,.....a president with arrogance
Matthew 26:52
52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.
Does this not ring alarm bells within Americian society
Matthew 5:44
But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you

Scott America has judged so many

its now your turn

Audio - I saw that late last night - almost posted it but I assume we'll have more news on this in the coming days.

James - several thoughts here.....What keeps ringing in my ears is Jesus statement "My kingdom is not of this world."....He didn't really get involved in the politics of His day, particularly the Roman government - He had very little interest...Also - when He said (Lune 21:28) that when we see the signs, to look up, as our redemption draws near...There is a lot more packed into this simple sentence than we ever acknowledge and this critical scripture is often overlooked. I believe it means to focus on HIM and HIS return, RATHER than the events of the day. We see the signs and we know the signs, and at that point we need to focus on HIM and what awaits us. I also believe that the worse things get here, the more we need t o focus on Him and what awaits us. In the twinkling of an eye, nothing here will have any importance, and I think that is made easier by the carnage we are witnessing. Things aren't going to be "fixed" on this earth by any election, any government leader or political leader. We know how birth pains go and there will be no reversing this process....So whats the point of focusing on politics here? It will be one ad replaced by the AC rule, pretty soon - It won't matter to us then and IMO it shouldn't now. Our focus should be singular - on Jesus and His return, and all the things He wants us to do here, and I don't think that involves politics....Just my 2 cents :)

thanks scott fair point you have raised
better not to focus on man made problems
the greatest lie the devil told man is
'i dont exist'
so maybe all the troubles around are designed to waver our true focus

James,
I have to actively tell my self this every day...Its so easy to get pulled into the things of this world, especially for one who craves justice.....Another thought Ive had is that God ALWAYS exposed evil before His judgement - which in the case of our generation, is the Tribulation...I fully believe that what we are seeing now is the exposure of evil in the world - but I don't expect to see any judgement - as God will reserve that for the Tribulation
