To me it feels like pendulum has reached the max swing in the liberal direction & now the momentum will swing back in the other direction politically. Libs are gonna be like the brat getting drug around Walmart having a tantrum. Just like that bad parent needs to discipline that spoiled child we have to straighten out the Libs as best we can & more importantly get the mindless sheep who don't vote or pay attention to WAKE UP & get their heads in the game. Has that pendulum been broken to never swing back or is some sanity ever gonna return? In our house we have drawn tighter in this mess through our Faith. Hollyweird, media, celebrities, "elites", etc are all false idols. Rejoice in the Lord! Speak up for this country & our way of life. Never cower to a bully. They thrive on us turning the other cheek. Don't be stupid & break laws but also don't cower to their evil ways.

I think that pendulum has a bit further left to go before it starts swinging back.

You seriously say this given the reactions to the Nashville shooting?

I’m a live and let live guy. I may think something is stupid but it’s your life. Don’t being kids into it and don’t try to force anyone into your psychotic behavior. That’s where I draw the line.

Man I hope that pendulum is done swinging left. I already can't believe the world right now. I shudder to think what waits down the road. (Btw, I ain't eating bugs...)

Yes I do. I think this current state of mind broken freaks who don't know their own sex killing Christians is bottom of the barrel behavior. Their continued veiled threats of violence are incomprehensible. I can't imagine anything worse. I think the "elites" are trying to kick us into another Civil War by easily manipulating their mindless fools they so easily control.

It could be the turning point.

Strangely the pendulum paused about the time Twitter was taken over and other news orgs were called out..

Not to be a killjoy, but I often think people put too much faith into this 'pendulum' paradigm. Sometimes things just keep degrading. We're talking about true civilizational rot and decay. Once the foundational truths and institutions that kept systems afloat have been removed, you don't necessarily have that remedial element of balance at play.

Perhaps I'll change my mind and get a whiff of optimism if I ever turn on the national media and actually see some broadcaster start to again to come to their senses and refer to some freakazoid dude in a dress and lipstick as a 'he' and a 'him.' Honestly, I really don't expect to. I expect our degenerate cultural elites to fully drag us all down into the abyss (as if we're not already there).

How about doing everything possible to “protect” the shooter and hosting a concert to benefit transgender rights in its wake?

So then the pendulum isn’t finished swinging then?

Nope, it continues. You don't have to be so literal. Anyone with a sense of practicality knows we're gonna be stuck with Libtards the rest of our days. Their little gathering Saturday at the Supreme Court promises to be an event I'm sure. I hope nobody on the right intervenes. Just let the freaks prance around pretending to be the other sex. Don't get sucked into their crap.

The first line of your post literally says you believe the pendulum has stopped swinging in the direction you now acknowledge it’s still moving in.

I think it's not so much a pendulum, but a run away train. It's not going to slow down and swing back, its just going to crash.

The pendulum will swing back some, but where the left has beaten the right in strategy is by embracing the far left fringe.

The political “center” is now what would have been considered liberal to very liberal 15-20 years ago.

Consider so called gay “marriage”. Most people today would say gay “marriage” is normal. That wasn’t the case not so long ago but the left got a single judge to rule by judicial fiat that gay’s could marry and the damn broke. The pendulum will not swing back far enough to correct that grace error.

There are other examples as well, but that one court ruling (in Iowa of all places) led to where we are today where a significant portion of the population think drag shows and homo-erotic literature belong in grade schools.
