THEY ARE RELENTLESS!!!!!
First it was The Imprimatur.
A slick piece of publication that landed in my mailbox. I glanced at it and threw it in the ‘will check out later, maybe’ pile. Never gave it a second thought, actually and after a few weeks, threw it in the recycle bin.
A couple months later, another issue was in my mailbox. I again gave the front page a closer look and thought, maybe I should check this out. And again, it landed in the … ‘later, maybe’ file only to be thrown into the recycle bin.
When the third issue came, I actually gave it a closer look. Turns out it was from Hillsdale College.
Hmmm, Hillsdale College sending me a newsletter.. I wonder why?
So, I thought I’d look them up.
Ah, a nice Liberal Arts institution, established by Baptist Abolitionist, nestled in rural Michigan. has been around for a couple hundred years… can’t be all bad, right?
It appears, however, that the venerable Liberal Arts, Baptist Abolitionists Institution has been hijacked by the moneyed Evangelicals… the likes of George and Betsy DeVos.
Yes, the same Betsy DeVos who was the Education Secretary under Trump. She, of the DeVos/Prince multibillion dollar family of Amway and Blackwater. Yes, there were/are others of their similar viewpoints affiliated with Hillsdale as well as The Claremont Institute (see John Eastman) (If you ask me, some venerable, historically liberal institutions have been hijacked…)
Needless to say, I was intrigued by the money behind Hillsdale.
But what caught my attention was the subject of one of the slick newsletters. A front page feature, authored by Christopher Rufo, about The Critical Race Theory.
Rufo, who was responsible for bringing the Critical Race Theory to life as the next wedge issue to rile the plebs about!
Well, that did it! I picked up my phone and called the Hillsdale number listed in the newsletter.
A young man answered. I explained I just received another issue of The Imprimatur and wondered how I got on the mailing list for this newsletter?
He was at a loss for words. I asked to be removed from the mailing list.
He assured me I would be. That was the last time I heard from Hillsdale College.
I still don’t know how, exactly, my name got on their mailing list… (who sold it to them?)
Fast forward a few months later…
Picked up the mail and noticed a large, newspaper size publication among my mail.
THE EPOCH TIMES
What? Where? How did this end up in my mail box…
Front page headlines included:
“US Taxpayers Help Fund The Illegal Immigration Crisis”
(Now, mind you, just a few months ago our neck of the woods was blessed with a few busses of Venezuelan migrants…)
Included with this “mailing” was a ‘Dear Reader’ flyer with info how to subscribe and:
“Issues we cover”
One of the issues they state is: “ SOCIALISM VERSUS FREEDOM”
Their solution? (as stated in the flyer)
“We systematically expose this communist subversion in an effort to free America and the world from it”
and
“What people are saying” including such luminaries as
TONY ROBBINS of the Family Research Council;
Victor D. Hamas of the Hoover Institute or
Dr. Peter Navarro, former Trump Admin Secretary…
among others…
Wow… that is some cast of characters, n’est pas?
Again I wondered - How did I get on this mailing list?
But the bigger question is - How many others get such DISINFORMATION in their mail boxes? and how do they react?
Do they wonder where or how did someone target them fro receive this swill?
And if so - WHO would want to brainwash them and why?
Alas, I fear, not too many will be asking that question…
SAD
