I had the misfortune of stumbling across this normie news article today. It argues on the basis of two pieces of evidence that consumers don't care about the record inflation. The first is that two companies adjusted their sales forecasts up (which happens all the time, and doesn't address the many more who didn't), and that gross sales economy-wide were up in Q4 (which always happens due to Christmas shopping). This is retard-tier propaganda. Do normies actually believe what they're fed, or deep down, do they know it's bs and just go along? https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2022-01-19/p-g-inflation-toiletries-get-more-expensive-but-americans-aren-t-balking-yet?utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=socialflow-organic&cmpid%3D=socialflow-twitter-view&utm_medium=social&utm_content=view

Americans Aren’t Bothered About Grocery Inflation — Yet
Household goods giant Procter & Gamble says consumers aren’t balking at higher prices. In fact, they’re opting for whatever’s premium.

"The “civil rights” revolutionary groups are a case in point. Their goal is not equality but power. The background of Negro culture is African and magic, and the purposes of magic are control and power over God, man, nature, and society. Voodoo, or magic, was the religion and life of American Negroes. Voodoo songs underlie jazz, and old voodoo, with its power goal, has been merely replaced with revolutionary voodoo, a modernized power drive."

Westminster Confession Chapter 28:
Of Baptism
1. Baptism is a sacrament of the New Testament, ordained by Jesus Christ, not only for the solemn admission of the party baptized into the visible church, but also to be unto him a sign and seal of the covenant of grace, of his ingrafting into Christ, of regeneration, of remission of sins, and of his giving up unto God, through Jesus Christ, to walk in newness of life: which sacrament is, by Christ’s own appointment, to be continued in His church until the end of the world.
2. The outward element to be used in the sacrament is water, wherewith the party is to be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, by a minister of the gospel, lawfully called thereunto.
3. Dipping of the person into the water is not necessary; but baptism is rightly administered by pouring or sprinkling water upon the person.
4. Not only those that do actually profess faith in and obedience unto Christ, but also the infants of one or both believing parents are to be baptized.
5. Although it be a great sin to contemn or neglect this ordinance, yet grace and salvation are not so inseparably annexed unto it as that no person can be regenerated or saved without it, or that all that are baptized are undoubtedly regenerated.
6.The efficacy of baptism is not tied to that moment of time wherein it is administered; yet, notwithstanding, by the right use of this ordinance, the grace promised is not only offered, but really exhibited and conferred by the Holy Ghost, to such (whether of age or infants) as that grace belongeth unto, according to the counsel of God’s own will, in His appointed time.
7.The sacrament of baptism is but once to be administered to any person.

Get a load of this retard. If you aren't making enough money to support a family, the solution isn't to work harder, save more, or learn new skills; you should just quit.

If you’re not earning a family wage, you should probably quit your job, let the government support you and focus on prayer and good works. You might even be better off, financially. Maybe learn a prized but rare skill, like bookbinding or something. Either…

'The diversity of tongues, character, races, and interests among mankind forbids their union in one universal commonwealth. ...He who extends his philanthropy so broadly as to refuse a special attachment to the interests of his own people, will probably make it so thin as to be of no account to any people.'

Some helpful distinctions:
It is right to say our ultimate allegiance should be to the kingdom of heaven, but it is wrong to say we cannot have allegiance to our nation and tribe.
It is right to say that the water of baptism is thicker than blood, but it is wrong to say we should forsake our earthly families.
It is right to say we should be content without earthly riches, but we should recognize them as blessings from God when he gives them.
It is right to say that Christians will frequently be persecuted, but it is wrong to desire this chastisement or set it up as the ideal.
It is right to say that a man who works in full-time ministry has an honorable calling, but it is wrong to elevate his calling over the ordinary man's.
It is right to say that civil government should not be intertwined with the church, but it is wrong to say that the magistrate has no obligation to obey and enforce God's laws.
It is right to say that "the kingdom of God is not of this world," but it is wrong to say that the kingdom of God has not come to this world, does not exist over this world, or has no manifestation in this world.

The problem with "based and trad" right wingers holding to NIFB, EO, and Papism is all the same: They believe that by retreating into the husks of unbiblical traditions, they can better fend off liberalism and modernity. Rather than wielding the Sword of the Spirit, they attempt to fashion their own tiny tinsel weaponlets thinking they can do better than God's word. This is the age-old error of attempting to be wiser than God. It is the core tactic of that ancient serpent: "Did God really say? Here, this will work better for you." And just like in the case of the temptation in the garden (knowing good and evil, which is a sign of godly maturity), these mistaken NIFBs, EOs, and RCs desire a good think (a godly, traditional society). But they attempt to reach for it by ways and means not sanctioned by God. Rather than trust God's means and timing of fulfilling His promise of dominion, they invent ways to grasp it for themselves, and, tragically and ironically, they lose it. And the harder they grasp with their man-made inventions, the more quickly their ideal society disintegrates in their hands.
