The advance of the New Left Radicals began in 1960 at Cal Berkeley.
They continue the advance to this day and, until Trump was elected, they were running the country.
Trump is one man. He cannot stop this advance single-handedly.

Much of the music of Pink Floyd speaks truth to these eternal themes...

I suggest buying real nice guns and ammo. Then just be yourself.

Thread title is part of biblical scripture, see Ephesians 6:12, ESV.
Also, the title of an excellent book by Frank Peretti.

Me its a myth passed along by idiot's of history. All of that stuff has been around forever. The internet has allowed ideas and "news" to be discussed more rapidly and passed along using social media, rather than relying on Msm-propaganda.

Exactly...these two mediums are aggregators of negativity...they create the impression the OP sees "everywhere" when, in fact, they are rare.
The only thing I see as widespread and reflected on the webz is a self-centeredness coupled with self-righteousness.

That's the facts.

One day I am going to get around to my Pink Floyd thread...

Labels mean little to me...
The truth is the truth...
Great art is made to have multiple layers of interpretation...
Layered symbolism of deep/superficial meanings for adepts/profane mean much to some folks in certain circles...
Case in point:
Rothschild publication...

a monetary lapse of reason
post 'the wall' pink floyd is grossly under appreciated imo. the division bell is spectacular as well. the final cut is next level, a true insight into the mind of roger waters, but it's a difficult listen if that makes sense.
animals is my personal favorite

No. But then again I'm not a sensitive thin skinned pussy who whines like a victim. Toughen up.

I think you have "labels" and "truth" reversed as concerns your musings.

Eh, I think we live in the absolute greatest time in history.
Everything you said has been around, and much worse, for ages. It's simply much more accessible with the internet and TV plastering it everywhere.
Could you imagine social media and whatnot being around during other times throughout history??
It was just much easier to hide all that terrible shite back in the day.

It's how the commies take over. Remove the family unit and God from most people's lives and they feel like they have nothing to fight for.

From my old pal, C.S. Lewis....
“God created things which had free will. That means creatures which can go wrong or right. Some people think they can imagine a creature which was free but had no possibility of going wrong, but I can't. If a thing is free to be good it's also free to be bad. And free will is what has made evil possible. Why, then, did God give them free will? Because free will, though it makes evil possible, is also the only thing that makes possible any love or goodness or joy worth having. A world of automata -of creatures that worked like machines- would hardly be worth creating. The happiness which God designs for His higher creatures is the happiness of being freely, voluntarily united to Him and to each other in an ecstasy of love and delight compared with which the most rapturous love between a man and a woman on this earth is mere milk and water. And for that they've got to be free."
"Of course God knew what would happen if they used their freedom the wrong way: apparently, He thought it worth the risk. If God thinks this state of war in the universe a price worth paying for free will -that is, for making a real world in which creatures can do real good or harm and something of real importance can happen, instead of a toy world which only moves when He pulls the strings- then we may take it it is worth paying.”
