On one hand, taking the human modern-day approach seems all well and good to attempt in explaining things in a manner using the vernacular of the times, appealing to the broadest audience, playing to them, and taking the philosophical intellectual approach. If you don’t know any better.

As for me, well, I like just dispensing with all of that and being direct.

I’m fed up with the layers of labels used to define people. A person is either leaning left in their views, thus liberal, progressive, militant, a socialist, a communist, a democrat, a this, a that, or a person leans to the right and is therefore conservative, rigid, a Constitutionalist, a republican, a this or that.

No, no, no.

I realize I will never change anyone’s thinking or word usage, just how ingrained all the dung is in their gray matter, the creases of the brain filled in with the feces putty of modern age beliefs and word usage, but there are only two kinds of people. Not just in America. Everywhere.

And they ain’t left or right in God’s sight, and His view of each person is all that really matters.

Right?

Oh, don’t like that independent American? You’re about as independent as any other slave throughout world history. Beholden to what you’ve been chained to as fed to you by the world, more than what you’ve been fed by God. And that stands for the overwhelming majority thinking, claiming to be Christians today.

Well, you might not like that it’s God’s view of each of us that matters most; you might not even agree with that in denying God, refusing the truth that is contained in His holy word, but that doesn’t alter reality. Dismiss the facts, void the truth that all that matters is how God sees us.

And you know what?

He doesn’t see anyone as a leftist, a liberal, a radical, a progressive, a socialist, a communist, a democrat, a republican, a conservative, a this or a that, according to all our assine bizarre, ridiculous categorizations.

God sees each person individually as either one of His or one of Satan’s. Period.

Either a person who truly, faithfully has been born again and repents, humbles themselves, turns to Him as Father, Abba, and acknowledges His Son, the LORD Jesus Christ, Yeshua Hamashiac, as Lord of their life, serving Him, obeying Him.

Born anew! A changed heart and mind made possible by the Supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. All due to one thing — faith. In Jesus.

This might seem too simple to you. Nonsense to you.

But I’ll tell you this — all the labels, all the categories, all the pigeon-holing, all the word use? That has its origins not in God. Elsewhere.

Same as Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia, woke, gay, and on and on and on and on it goes.

Where it stops…only God’s true people know. Because they’ve read, studied, meditated — thought deeply upon the words — they’ve received discernment, wisdom, and knowledge only the Holy Spirit can provide. By living in, eating, drinking, and immersing oneself in the Word of God. Continually.

I realize we all need words to provide meaning, get our bearings, and communicate clearly and well. Language, after all, is a gift from God. It’s what we do with the gifts we receive, right?

That’s why we all ought to use the best words possible for descriptions. Agreed?

Yes, adjectives are very important! Agreed.

So, let’s start using the best ones to describe things, people, and what is what and why.

ALL PEOPLE ARE EVIL.

Not just liberals, or leftists.

You think or believe those on the right flaunting their homosexuality who are hardcore republicans are not serving Satan? The Log Cabin Republicans. What’s that? Unaware of them. Well, it’s time you did some research, isn’t it?

Think those on the right who are preaching antisemitism and out-and-out lies about Jews, Israel, God, Christianity, Replacement Theology, and Islam are serving who?

Wake up!

Think churches that are filled with so-called “good people,” many of them claiming to be Christians, claiming to be conservatives who allow ravenous wolves in, so many false teachers, now preaching there is no eternal hell, that homosexual women can be pastors overseeing a congregation, and on and on and on it goes, anything goes, let’s go be entertained by a rock concert passing itself off as holy worship where no one over the age of 40 is permitted to belong to the “worship team”, a light show thrown in for effect to make the crowd feel at home, a feel good 20 minute motivational talk tossed in…then lunch! Then football or golf! Serving God? Hardly.

You know what?

Until, unless each of us starts at the right place in our minds, in our hearts, with our thoughts, with our tongues, and we cease and desist in just parroting the lost, blind, in utter darkness world we’re not living as we should, according to what we claim to be.

God’s people. Christ’s. The LORD’S.

We’re just like the rest of the lost world.

Refusing to have a spiritual backbone and to stand firm, speak clearly and boldly.

All people are inherently evil and condemned to the eternal pit of hell, the lake of unquenchable fire, as sinners, no matter their politics, their worldly beliefs, or if they vote democrat or republican…or if they’re American…

…unless they repent of their sin. Turn to God. Turn to Jesus. Humble themselves. Confess their sin and their need of a Savior, committing their life to the living, risen LORD Jesus Christ as Lord of their life. To be born anew, a changed heart, a renewed mind.

And, yes, we will not change anyone in such a manner. But even the hardest, coldest heart, dead within a sinner, can be forever changed. By the Supernatural power of the Holy Spirit of God.

All this will be sorted and explained later.

By Jesus.

But, if waiting until then?

Ewwwww. Too late.

Get everything sorted and in order, right in God’s sight now.

Words and all.

The Holy Spirit will help greatly in this. If you believe. If you trust. If truly born again…

…or just keep appearing, sounding like everyone else in the world.

God will get it all sorted in the end.

Goats and sheep.

Those He knew and knows, even though many will call out, “Lord, Lord, I did this and this and that in your name!”

And what will His reply be? Look it up if unaware.

His and not His, those who are Satan’s.

Only those on all the earth. Ever.

Yes, leftists are ‘evil.’ Here’s how they got that way—and why you’ll never change them

February 16, 2026

By Selwyn Duke

Reprinted from Renew America

“They are programmed…,” Soviet defector and ex-KGB man Yuri Bezmenov warned decades ago about the ideologues we call “leftists.” “You cannot change their mind…. You are stuck with them.”

It’s common for people to say today when contrasting our two major ideological groups, “Conservatives think leftists are misguided; leftists think conservatives are evil.” I, though, am different.

I know leftists are evil.

That is, practically speaking. Theologically speaking, I’m not judging their souls or inborn nature. Putting it plainly, however, and alluding to the reality that leftists have embraced evil, I will say they are so. I’m going to now explain how they got that way, too, and why Bezmenov was right: You will never, ever change their minds (not without God’s help, that is—editor’s note).

One more caveat: Because what’s true in principle is not always true in the particular, there are exceptions to the above rule. This is evidenced by the leftists who get “red pilled,” as in the movie The Matrix. Now let’s proceed.

It’s common to hear warnings about the effects of modern education’s left-wing indoctrination. We’ve all heard the stories, too, about young people entering college seemingly normal and then going haywire—and even, sometimes, disowning their parents over political differences. Yet believing education is the only, or even main, culprit misses much.

The proverbial saying goes, “Give me a child until he is seven, and I will show you the man.” Psychologist Nicolai Sennels, who worked with delinquent Muslim youths in Denmark, once explained that what’s inculcated into a kid during his first seven years can become almost unchangeable (i.e., you’re “stuck” with it). And the “age of reason” has traditionally been considered seven.

The point is that by this age, a person’s foundation (emotional and in other dimensions) is already largely formed. This means, too, that most formation occurs before the child has any schooling. But what is happening, mainly, during this period?

Ancient Greek philosopher Plato explained it well. Children must be raised in an atmosphere of nobility and grace, he stated, so that—and this is the crux—children will develop an erotic (as in emotional) attachment to virtue. (Note: Virtue is “that set of objectively good moral habits.”)

This is important because during these tender years, the child is too cognitively immature to grasp virtue’s importance intellectually. Once this emotional attachment is established, however, upon reaching maturity the individual will be much more likely to accept the dictates of reason. (For example, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch,” or “You’re not owed other people’s money.”)

This is just common sense, of course. We all know how significant the formative years are (hence the term “formative”); therefore abuse, especially sexual, during this period is so devastating. Little children are as sponges, absorbing whatever truths, tastes, or toxins surround them; they are as wet clay, too, highly malleable.

And whatever the negative influences, the point is this: Do the opposite of Plato’s prescription and raise a child in a degraded atmosphere, and the result is the opposite: He develops an erotic attachment to vice. Upon then reaching the age of reason, he will generally be very unreasonable. He not only will be less likely to accept reason’s dictates, but they may be anathema to him.

Unfortunately, too, forging a child in vice is far easier than inculcating virtue because, left to themselves, things naturally move towards disorder. (Think here of a house or car left to sit for years without maintenance.) In the case of individual moral development, this leads to what theologians might call “disordered thinking.”

As you might’ve guessed, too, the weaned-on-vice children tend to become what we in our time call “leftists” (or low-virtue people, LVP). And this explains a common experience normal people often have when debating them:

You present a logical point and factual evidence—and the LVP rejects it, responding emotionally.

Bezmenov referenced this phenomenon thus: You cannot change such a person’s mind even when exposing him “to authentic information. …The facts tell nothing to him.”

It also explains why two young people will attend the same college, exposed to essentially identical propaganda, but respond very differently. The first will perhaps go along to get along, but roll his eyes and emerge with his degree—and with his sanity (and politics) unchanged or even improved, having been spurred on to growth via exposure to error.

The second will become a raving, perhaps violent “leftist.”

Most would say the latter changed, and perhaps he did. What’s for certain is that each young person embraced ideology that corresponded to his early-years-forged emotional/moral foundation. The first student retained ideas that aligned with virtue because he was essentially virtuous.

The second easily gravitated toward ideas aligning with vice because he was essentially vice-imbued, an LVP. You could say that his college “transformation” was just a matter of what with animals is called “instinctual drift.” Only a catalyst was necessary—and the professors and their “teaching” were it.

This helps explain, mind you, the “red-pilled” leftists who experience political conversion. They are very often not LVP, just temporarily deceived people. And when finally witnessing leftism’s ugly face—such as merciless “cancel culture” or unjust political violence—they are viscerally repelled and then gravitate toward where they finally realize the greater virtue resides: the so-called “right.” (Note: “Greater” doesn’t mean “complete.” It means those in question are higher-virtue people, HVP.)

This also explains findings such as those presented in Peter Schweizer’s 2008 article “Don’t listen to the liberals – Right-wingers really are nicer people, latest research shows.” But they are “nicer” because they are HVP.

Philosopher C.S. Lewis framed this LVP-HVP difference very well in his 1943 book The Abolition of Man.

“No justification of virtue will enable a man to be virtuous,” he warned. “Without the aid of trained emotions the intellect is powerless against the animal organism. I had sooner play cards against a man who was quite skeptical about ethics, but bred to believe that ‘a gentleman does not cheat,’ than against an irreproachable moral philosopher who had been brought up among sharpers.”

“Conservatives” are more likely to be bred believing “a gentleman does not cheat”; leftists are more likely to have “been brought up among sharpers.”

Anyone fancying this mere partisan prejudice doesn’t have to take my word for it. Just listen to LVP Democrat operative Scott Foval. He himself admitted on hidden camera in 2016 that there “is a level of adherence to rules on the other side [Republicans] that only when you’re at the very highest level, do you get over.”

So this is why I say, and know, that in principle leftists are evil. If this sounds uncharitable to anyone, I’ll offer hope: Leftists, you don’t have to wallow in wickedness. You can begin that journey into the light and seek virtue anytime you wish. The choice is yours.

On another charitable note, you don’t have to be a “sharper” to raise a sharper-like child. Why not? Well, harking back to Plato and raising kids, does an “atmosphere of nobility and grace” at all describe our culture today? With vulgarity and perverse sexuality infusing virtually everything now, with “Bad Bunny” truly epitomizing a bad collective sense of virtue, we now have a culture of vice. You don’t need abusive parenting or corruptive schooling to yield an LVP (though it helps). Just expose the child, unfettered, to enough TV, internet, and popular music.

And this is why, my friends, I’ve said that we can’t MAGA unless we MAMA: Make America Moral Again. A vice-ridden culture begets vice-ridden people—who then gravitate toward vice-reflecting ideology.

It’s so simple, perfect and demonic a scheme for creating citizens “of intemperate minds” who’ll invite and deserve tyranny that the suspicious could almost think it’s a conspiracy, and suspicious theists could almost think it’s a conspiracy transcending man. For we’ve heard that “politics is downstream from culture,” but the cleverest beings know that culture is downstream and upstream from human hearts.
