Today's Reality of Sociopolitical Abortion Right's Culture of Death Part 1 of 2


There’re additional terms for “Partial Term” and “Late Term” abortion: infanticide, maternal filicide and murder. And it is morally repugnant, indefensible and wicked. Contrary to Andrew Cuomo’s declaration that late term abortion is “a historic victory for…our progressive values…” The opposite is true. This shameless embrace of a culture of death is astonishing to every American who cherishes life. Not too long ago, the Democratic party’s stated position was that abortion should be “safe, legal, and rare.” It was this widespread rejection of late-term abortion that led a bipartisan majority in Congress to pass the partial-birth-abortion ban in 2003. Pitilessly, how far left the Democratic party’s pendulum has swung. 
To support, let alone cheer, late-term abortions not only marks a disturbing step backward by self-styled “progressives”, it also encroaches upon every demand of human decency. As modern science has moved the point of viability ever earlier in pregnancy, most Americans have agreed that a child who can survive outside the womb deserves a chance at life. Although the beginning of humanhood may be controversial, why cannot the progressive left and the sociopolitical abortion rights movement accept the scientific answer regarding the beginning of human personhood? The widely accepted scientific answer: Human life begins at the time of conception. This being so, anyone with an open mind must conclude that human life is present throughout the entire sequence from conception to adulthood and that any point throughout this time constitutes a termination of human life. One can only assume those sociopolitical abortion proponents are selectively blind to the truth or ignore the pain and suffering an aborted fetus, terminated baby or abandoned newborn. Or, simply don’t give a damn. 
To say I find the current political debate over abortion deeply troubling, including the decision by some Democrats to block a bill, from passing unanimously, called the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act is an understatement. The mentioned act would require that babies born alive after a botched abortion procedure be treated no differently by doctors than any other newborn.  Imagine, we are debating whether it is ethical to strangle a child, for the mother and the physician or clinician to have a conversation while keeping the newborn comfortable, all the while considering if they want to destroy it or no. Really, we’re having a bioethical debate about what amounts to infanticide? In America, are not all of us created equal? If that equality means anything, surely it means that infanticide is wrong. Forthrightly, this shouldn’t be hard. Then again, today’s Democrats seem to be all right with taking the life of a breathing, heart beating and pain feeling human life. Are you?

Adherents of Collectivist Government are Blind to Reality


What I have seen after having lived in Deutschland for seven years, visiting other Western nations, participating in various military operations/conflicts around the globe and having resided in America for the majority of my life, is that the radical left of the Western political spectrum is transforming into a totalitarian force in the name of anti-everything, dependent on the context and their perception thereof. In a word, those political leaders, candidates or supporters who espouse any form of collectivism as preferred type of governmental system by which a state or community is controlled either know not of what they speak or intentionally deceive a targeted populous creating awkward obscuration where there needs to be clarity and transparency. In summation, the perpetrators of such action circumvent or conceal the reality of rule by Socialist, Communalist, Collectivist, Communist or Marxist ideology. The fact is, government by Socialism refers to a collective group of select individuals that exercises executive authority in a state. They want the government to control free speech, academia and wealth distribution in the name of anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-misogyny or anti-bigotry; prejudice against differing opinions. But let me tell you: when it comes to limiting freedom of speech and distributing wealth from the affluent (rich) to the impoverished (poor), the adherents of Socialism and Marxism take the cake. They do so, all in the name of anti-colonialism, anti-capitalism, anti-fascism…. Has not history taught us that nothing good evolves out of socialist or collective form of government rule, except for those few power elitists whose buttocks are sitting in the throne of power? Those who are inept and Janus-faced will become wealthier, those who are gifted or skilled will only manage to live their lives, to a limited extent moderately unless they are willing to become corrupted, and the honest underprivileged will become poorer still. The Feminists who fight for free birth control pills and women’s choice are ignoring the fact that many Collectivist governments fail to protect its women and are heavily involved in child trafficking and sex-slavery. 


In conclusion, it is clear the leftist who seek to reap the harvests of socialism cannot see the forest for the trees. They are blind to the fact that high taxes have driven businesses big and small, to foreign lands, destroying the livelihood of multitudes of their own honest, hardworking and competent countrymen. Even the Libertarians who preach unrestricted competition (free market) miss the notion of impartiality (fair play) when it comes to economic relationship with Collectivist nations. To me, such people are not so virtuous, anti-evil nor anti-establishment; they are just too damn self-serving, naïve or too simple-minded to criticize the political and economic realities of Marx, Engel, Lenin, Mao, Nicolas Maduro…. Kamala Harris, Ocasio Cortez, Elizabeth Warren….
