It is up to the 'deplorables' to save America
By Douglas Altabef
As schoolchildren, we were taught that history was the product and creation of great personages. Leaders, innovators, thinkers, polemicists – all were individuals or groups of individuals.
The rest of us were backdrop, cannon fodder, or the ordinary people who followed the leads of those destined to direct us.
Of course, the people do have an impact, assuming that they follow through on the initiatives of their leaders – political and cultural – on ideas, trends and patterns that end up having a pervasive effect on their societies.
Today, we might be witnessing the exception that proves the rule. A group of individuals – academics, cultural, media and political figures - has bequeathed onto their cultures 'post-modernism,' and the nihilistic impact of its destruction, or as they say, deconstruction, of the truth, of facts, of values, of absolutes, of roles, relationships and traditions.
In other words, in the name of some undefined or even unconceived Utopian vision, the elites have ordained a dismantling of all that we have come to regard as the pillars and attributes of Western Civilization.
