description: (hide) Our society is suffering from mass delusion, a destructive tsunami triggered by the ‘progressive’ far-left. The noun ‘delusion’ is a false fixed belief held with dogged persistence despite evidence to the contrary. Some mass delusions have produced negligible consequences, such as Big Foot, UFO, and Elvis sightings, but other mass delusions, such as the Salem Witch Trials, have led to innocent lives snuffed out. The current leftist, ‘progressive’ rage is stirring up hatred among the misinformed and under-informed citizenry in massive proportions. As Goebbels observed, if the media tells a lie long enough, it begins to be accepted in the public consciousness and believed by the gullible masses. As the end of the age approaches, the man of sin, under Satan’s powerful demonic sway, will delude most of the world. We need to steer clear of the tentacles of the media and mass culture, realizing that believable or plausible lies have led to tragic consequences.
