PEOPLE WHO TELL THE TRUTH ARE DANGEROUS AND NEEDED FOR A HEALTHY SOCIETY

 PEOPLE WHO TELL THE TRUTH ARE DANGEROUS AND NEEDED FOR A HEALTHY SOCIETY

By Domenick J. Maglio PhD. Traditional Realist

 

Most traditional families taught their children to tell the truth. When children were caught in a lie they were in serious trouble. They would receive a spanking, washing out of their mouth with soap, or an immediate command to go to bed until further notice. Telling the truth was a major building block of character development of a child.

 

Telling the truth is stressed in the Bible, the boy scouts, Rotary Club, and religious instructions. Being honest has been held as a virtue throughout American history. Lying has been viewed with contempt. A Godly, wholesome environment was seen as necessary to keep everyone on the straight and narrow path. Once a person was known as a habitual liar, they were rarely taken into anyone’s confidence. 

 

A person who is a habitual liar initially can appear to be a very likeable person. They learn the art of conning others by saying what people want to hear. Often the average listener is convinced what the person says is what they believe. 

 

During times when evil is rising or in power, lying is a tool to control others. The truth can unmask a person’s attempt to appear different than he pretends. Lying is a shortcut to impress others: to believe the individual has accomplished some good when it is just the opposite. Only a person with incredible courage, integrity, and conviction can confront a constant liar who must lie to cover up previous lies. 

 

A courageous person with a strong moral code can bring down this type of villain, a vindictive evil person. In front of congressional hearings two strong FBI whistleblower heroes, Greg Shapley and Joseph Sigler, gave specific and detailed information demonstrating that the FBI hierarchy covered up Joe and Hunter Biden’s actions. Hunter Biden, son of President Biden, was immediately protected by many democrats who attempted to attack the credibility of these FBI informers. However, democrats failed to address how Hunter Biden was able to plead guilty to misdemeanor accounts of tax evasion and only had to participate in a pretrial intervention which was a slap on the wrist. Any other person without these political connections would not have received such a sweetheart deal.

 

In the May 18^th congressional investigation three FBI whistleblower testified about interference by FBI agency heads.  Jim Jordan’s committee probed into the Hunter Biden involvement with foreign companies that gave money for political favors and influence in the Biden administration. They have pointed out that Hunter Biden has been receiving payments for a number of years and if the people paying were not receiving value the payments would have stopped.

 

NY democrat, Jerry Nadler was disgraced when he accused two FBI whistleblowers of accepting $250,000 each for their testimony, which was untrue. Congressman Nadler alleged the money was raised by former Trump aide, Kash Patel. However, Jason Foster, Head of “Empower Oversight” a well-respected organization who represents government whistleblowers has stated: “Nadler’s statement is untrue.” At this point these FBI whistleblowers have lost their security clearance and have been ostracized by colleagues.  Again, we are witnessing a two-tier justice system.

 

Our current political order mandates that a person who wants to get ahead must tell people what they want to hear rather than what is true. Anyone who knows the truth and tells it is dangerous to many people who live through lies. Falsifying who you are to appear as who you want to be is self-defeating. Sooner or later the lies conflict with the truth and people realize the person is living a lie.

 

People who tell the truth are considered dangerous since they usually are people who are honest with themselves. They are often unaware that their truth bombs can explode the profile that an individual has meticulously created with the assistance of others. False praise eventually collapses as the truth surfaces above the lies.

 

No matter how many liars attempt to protect the deceitful person there will be new people who appear with true facts to counter the lies. New facts are added to the others which becomes an avalanche of contradictions that buries the liars. 

 

Powerful allies like the DOJ, FBI, IRS, and legacy media did everything to whitewash the Biden extortion practices for money. CNN and NBC devoted no airtime to inform the public what was newly learned about President Biden and Hunter Biden using government agencies to shield them and attack anyone who attempted to expose their crimes. As this process continues the two-tier system of justice will be exposed pointing out the corrupt and dishonest people in government and media. 

 

Remember, if honest people stand up, it is not long before others will follow. It starts with a few courageous people with integrity then it catches fire. Those few special people are needed to put the USA on the right and honest path.

HOW DOES ELIMINATING MENTAL INSTITUTIONS AND DEFUNDING THE POLICE HELP SOCIETY?

 HOW DOES ELIMINATING MENTAL INSTITUTIONS AND DEFUNDING THE POLICE HELP SOCIETY?

By Domenick J. Maglio PhD. Traditional Realist

 

In our woke culture, everyone should reach an equitable status according to them. White privilege is not something that is earned but was unfairly given to the white racial group of people while black and brown people were oppressed at every turn. According to these Marxist concepts, everyone should receive the same outcome and should be treated equally no matter the talent, effort, and overall work ethic.

 

Our woke society believes that it is necessary to provide advantages to protected classes and impose handicaps on the whites, who were given so many advantages in the past. The elites believe this should happen to all whites, except for them. The disadvantaged people of color, according to them, should receive these advantages so the elites could parade as liberators. 

 

The social justice concept is not about establishing a specific set of rules to make the playing field fair for everyone. Instead, it is about equity, creating equal outcomes by giving one group more than they honestly earned. This scheme will only create animosity among the people who were robbed of what they legitimately earned. It is a policy that will create internal strife between the whites and protected classes. This decreases the overall motivation for improving one’s lot in life for everyone. The once disadvantaged who receives something for nothing will believe they deserve what they are given. 

 

The increase in government equity handouts without spending effort and time earning it gives the “protected class” the opportunity to stretch the boundaries of law and order ending in mental health problems and prison time.

 

Many advocates who want to empty mental institutions and prisons are justifying it since many of them are themselves disadvantaged and nonwhite. Does society have the right to incarcerate people who do destructive and harmful acts to innocent people? Does the average person have the right to expect others to act appropriately in a law-abiding, civilized way? If the answer to both questions is “no” then both these institutions should be abolished. If citizens should be protected from erratic and harmful actions from others, then the answer is “yes.” 

 

We have already seen the results of easing restrictions on acting out behavior in our homes, in our government schools, our streets, and with our district attorneys releasing hardcore criminals back on the streets. Even our politicians are breaking the law with no prosecution. Our legal system has become a joke producing nothing but chaos and disillusion about our society’s future.  

 

Standards of appropriateness and laws must be enforced to ensure quality of life in homes, neighborhoods, nations, or even worldwide. When these reasonable rules and appropriate behavior are established and followed the overall environment is stabilized and incrementally improves. Life becomes predictable and reasonable. The opposite happens when this process is reversed by lowering expectations and standards. Everyone suffers except for the low lives who take advantage of the unprotected and naïve. 

 

Without laws and standards being upheld any group, organization, or nation will lapse into self-destruction. The groups advocating for defunding the police and closing mental facilities are either anarchists, ignorant, or persons who do not care about the welfare of the USA or living in a civilized world.

 

What happened in our prisons and mental institutions in the late 1960s and early 1970s is our country relaxed our state and local standards releasing many chronic and severely violent criminals as well as mentally dangerous individuals back on the street. At the same time our government’s social welfare system argued that they deserved a second chance. 

 

Many of them had many chances to return to their communities but failed. At the same time there was a campaign in the media to normalize previously extreme behavior. As our standards decreased, crime and bizarre behavior was witnessed with increased riots, random shootings, brazen shoplifting, and more insane marches demanding more acceptance for deviant behavior.

 

When a society relaxes its standards for crime and bizarre behavior the incidents of these behaviors understandably increase. The two institutions of prison and mental health facilities exist because they are vital for the safety of the public. Mentally ill people and criminals cause pain, loss of property and even death to innocent people. Eliminating these two institutions will increase physical and mental harm to innocent people. Every individual has a right to be protected from those who disregard the law and civil behavior.

THE CELL PHONE STRUGGLE CAN BE OVERCOME BY LOVING DISCIPLINE

 THE CELL PHONE STRUGGLE CAN BE OVERCOME BY LOVING DISCIPLINE 

By Domenick J. Maglio PhD. Traditional Realist

 

Every generation has had unique historical events that complicated the raising of one’s children. These include WWI, the advent of the radio, the roaring 20s, the depression, WWII, the Korean War, television, Elvis Presley, the 60s sexual revolution, peaceniks, drugs, feminism, homosexuality and the transexual movement. This is a short list that continually expands with changes to our culture making being a parent more difficult. 

 

As society continues to adjust to past events, there will be new unexpected social upheavals and devices that will capture the attention of the youngsters influencing their thinking and behavior. The parents’ position is to train their children to act as the parents require in various situations and not accept their defiant and obnoxious behavior.  Cellphone monitoring is causing immense problems for parents as children are using their phone while they are supposed to be sleeping.

 

The cellphone has caused problems for parents around the globe. Many children from an early age now possess cellphones. They spend time on apps like TikTok without parental approval during all hours of the night. This has put many parents in a quandary as they have little power over what their children are doing. They feel powerless. 

 

There are many causes why parents are not able to keep their children off their phone at night to prevent them from seeing things they should not see. Also, the children’s lack of sleep makes them irritable, short-tempered and poor in their studies. Government schools are becoming more lax in expectations of academic work, ignoring violent behavior, and accepting of students not following teachers’ directions. Even school police officers are friends and not feared. Many young children rule inside and outside of the home. This permissiveness started with parents being frightened that their child will not love them if they have strict and old-fashioned demands. 

 

Anytime the parent tries to put their foot down the child rebels by not following the parental decrees. The parents speak to other adults and even professionals who tell them there is little they can do except to be their friend.  This usually means the parents need to do something with their child that will make them happy. Appeasing the child, not confronting them is easier in the short run but can lead to disaster in the long run.

 

Teenagers often do not listen as they were not trained earlier to do as they were asked to do. The untrained child does not know or care that they are ignoring the parents because they never received consequences for this behavior.

 

If the child was not trained early, the parent’s power can be asserted later but it will be slower and harder to do it. If the child drives a car or motorcycle recklessly, the parent can take the vehicle away to establish the fact all the liberties can be withdrawn. Once parents start on this course, they must be willing to remove the freedoms until the child learns who is the boss. When the child starts listening then the parent knows they have gotten their attention. Only by the parent standing strong does the youngster learn the lessons necessary to make better mature, healthy decisions.

 

The problem with modern society is parents have forgotten the ultimate role of being the child’s teacher. Today’s parents have stepped down to the level of the child to be their equal instead of demonstrating to them how to reach a more mature level of thinking and behaving. They can reach the level of becoming a young maturing adult when they realize their parents have the right and power to make their adolescent’s lives miserable. When they are choosing self-destructive actions and the parent give them more freedom as they demonstrate mature decision making the family is on the right course. 

 

Only by parents using their power to shut down their adolescent’s arrogant lifestyle will the child realize they have no way to win the battle with their parents. This will only take place when the youngster feels the pain of losing their privileges and freedom. 

 

The battle of who is boss is not won by the parent’s bribing their children with more positive experiences or more freedom. Giving too much to a child while they have not earned it. The parents have received too little which is not a good bargaining position. Only when the parents assert their power by closing the “toy box,” that their children assume will always be there, will the child begin to listen. By parents beginning to cancel their child’s privileges and freedoms will the child realize he has a lot to lose if they continue to be disobedient hand disrespectful. Parental strength, not weakness, is the way to gain a child’s gratitude and ensure they take the right path in life.
