The left creates the right.
If you think of the way a pendulum swings, the momentum it gathers from going to one extreme allows it to move towards the other extreme.
The far right is created by the far left.
During 2020 I was so surprised that my thoughts and beliefs were suddenly classified as ‘right wing.’ I was just someone who believed in medical freedom, having been harmed by a medical procedure in the past, my number one rule for myself was, only seek medical care when absolutely necessary.
Incidentally being health conscious and cautious about vaccines used to be a more leftwing persuasion - back in the 70’s and 80’s when being left was more countercultural. I can remember shopping with my mum in the small enclave of alternative shops; the health food shop, the veggie coop and the cafe that served healthy (but not so tasty) flapjacks. It was all a left wing enterprise.
But now making us healthy again is right-wing. So it seems, things change.
Left wing used to mean caring about the average working person and making sure they had a fair wage, and good healthcare and education.
Now it’s far left. Something different entirely.
So is it any wonder that the far left creates the far right?
I see people despairing about far right movements in the US and the UK, but this is how pendulums work. I totally understand why people would vote for a figure like Trump or Farage.
But, the left and right work in tandem. The left creates the right, and the right creates the let. They are dark and light. White and black. A masonic checkerboard. Like white and black magic - if you listen to a testimony of white witches who have become Christian you will see that white magic is just as harmful as black. It just looks different from the outside.
‘For even Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.’ 2 Corinthians 11.14
How far right are we going to swing now, now the left has pushed the pendulum so far?
There is true light, but it is far, far beyond politics.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness, to bear witness about the light, that all might believe through him. He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light. The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. He came to his own,[ and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:6-13
