2021: Don’t be glad it’s over-be glad that it happened
Human Events, Jan 3, 2022, Charlie Kirk

Wherever I’ve gone over the past month, the recurring theme I have heard from people of all ages and all walks of life can be summed up under the general phrase, “I’m so glad that 2021 is over.”  While the sentiment is understandable coming from patriotic Americans who have seen their Constitution and their individual rights fall under attack in a manner that is unprecedented in our history, I also think it is tragic that people look back on an entire year of their life and feel as though the best thing about it is that they survived it.

Allow me to reframe the dumpster fire of this past year and cast the abuses and frustrations we have suffered in a different light.  2021 was a year where the leviathan of the totalitarian state officially declared war on traditional Americans and expected to crush you.  This was a top-down revolution pitting the ruling class elite against regular patriotic Americans.  They pressed us to the point where they were certain we would sue for peace and surrender to them.

Instead, we have taken all their best punches and are still standing.  They are now tired, paranoid, and desperate.  We’ve started to fight back, and our blows are landing on an enemy that didn’t anticipate receiving them.  This past year, 2021, has been the year where the citizen has taken back their rightful place.  It has seen the rise of the “parent’s party” and now we have momentum on our side.

We might never have brought ourselves to this point if they hadn’t overreached so badly.  All the hell and fury brought forth against us in 2021 has steeled us and has now awakened in so many the will to win.

A rather long essay, yet a worthwhile read.

We're still wusses compared to those who endured the Great Depression, World War II, the post-war years, and the Korean War.  They conqurered polio and smallpox.

We're still fighting the Wuhan Flu.

A good read
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
