A gay couple who had been together for twenty-three years once said something deeply candid and painfully honest. “Our friends always push us to come out but we tell them no. We cannot stand when others shove their beliefs down our throat, and neither do we feel we should wear panties in public.” In that simple statement lies a profound truth about our modern world: there is a true luxury to being liberal.
Sadly, most people on the Left are too daft to realize that liberalism is a delicate illusion that has only recently existed in the grand timeline of human history. Even in ancient Greece and Rome—often hailed as the birthplaces of modern ideas of sexuality and democracy—these freedoms existed under strict rules and hierarchies. For most of human existence, the world was a place of brutality and raw survival: tribal warfare, rape, torture, slavery, and conquest. Compassion was weakness, forgiveness was folly, and human dignity was unheard of. In that dark reality, there were no open rights or protections, only the rule of the strong over the weak.
What we see today is not natural progress, but rather an anomaly that exists only under the rarest conditions. It is not universal, and it is certainly not permanent. Liberalism thrives only when a society is wealthy, secure, and deeply rooted in law and morality—but above all, in true Christian compassion. Strip away those conditions for even a moment, and the illusion shatters. It is, ironically, only the extraordinary compassion of modern Christian democracies—the teachings of Christ about mercy, forgiveness, and love for one’s neighbor—that has allowed such ideals to flourish. Without this foundation, the world quickly reverts to survival of the fittest, with no room for fragile notions like equality, tolerance, or freedom.
In countries where chaos reigns—where food is scarce, police are absent, or warlords hold power—no one argues about pronouns or pride parade routes. People in those societies care about food, family, and who controls the weapons. They fight to survive, not to signal virtue. This is the harsh reality most of the world lives in, a reality liberals in the West are insulated from by the very traditions they spend their lives trying to dismantle.
Built on the Blood of the Past
Every right and privilege enjoyed by modern liberals was purchased through the sacrifice of those they now ridicule and despise. Free speech, racial equality, women’s rights, and gay rights did not appear out of thin air. They were built layer by layer on a foundation forged by men and women who believed in order, discipline, and Christian faith. The rule of law was rooted in Christian morality. Families were strong and stable, producing responsible citizens. Borders were defended by those willing to give their lives so that others could live in peace. Military strength deterred tyrants, and faith in God established the very ideas of mercy, justice, and human dignity.
These older generations lived by hard principles, and through their discipline, they built civilizations strong enough to create safe spaces for debate, art, diversity, and progress. Their strength allowed future generations to dream of equality and inclusion. Today, those who inherit this legacy have turned against the very people and traditions that made their freedoms possible. Activists mock faith as backward and patriotism as dangerous. They call masculinity toxic and motherhood oppressive. They behave as if their freedoms are eternal truths rather than fragile gifts handed down through sacrifice.
The irony is stark: those who shout the loudest about their rights do so only because the people they despise once stood firm against chaos. The safety they take for granted is not a natural state of the world. It was created—and it can be destroyed, along with their liberal way of life.
No Rights Without God and Democracy
Liberals speak endlessly about universal rights, but the uncomfortable truth is that these rights are anything but universal. They exist only in nations shaped by Christianity and constitutional democracy. Outside of this rare cultural bubble, liberal ideals vanish instantly.
In Arab countries ruled by Islamic law, homosexuality is punishable by death. Women have no independence, and dissent is crushed with swift brutality. In many African states, sexual violence, forced marriage, and religious persecution are rampant, with no protections for the vulnerable. In communist China, the state controls every aspect of life, from speech to family planning. Gays and lesbians there are not celebrated—they are censored and erased when politically inconvenient. In North Korea, even speaking freely can condemn an entire family to prison camps for generations.
These nations represent the majority of the world, not the minority. The irony is painful: the very liberals who rail against Christianity and Western traditions are destroying the only systems that protect them. Without Christian ethics like “love thy neighbor,” without constitutional protections like free speech and due process, there would be no safe space for dissent. Liberals would not merely be criticized—they would be silenced, imprisoned, or executed.
When Liberalism Becomes a Weapon
Liberalism began as a movement of compassion, but it has been hijacked by forces far more dangerous than its idealistic supporters realize. Today, it is the soft mask worn by a hard, calculated agenda.
Global institutions like the United Nations push immigration policies designed to dissolve borders and erase national identities. Central banks and global financiers create systems of debt that keep nations perpetually weak and dependent. Hollywood and Big Tech act as propaganda arms, shaping thought while censoring dissent. Meanwhile, mass immigration floods Western nations, not to lift the world up, but to destabilize strong countries from within. And behind it all, surveillance technologies developed in places like China are imported to monitor and control populations who still believe themselves free.
This is not kindness. It is coordinated collapse. The open borders and endless welfare programs that liberals defend so passionately are not about helping the poor or marginalized. They are about weakening the strong so a handful of elites can rule without resistance. When this system breaks, it will not be the powerful who suffer first. It will be the very people liberals claim to champion—women, children, and minorities.
The Collapse of Family, Gender, and Identity
At the core of modern liberalism is a rejection of all structure. Everything must be fluid, inclusive, and equal. But when nothing has meaning, chaos is inevitable.
Women lose their privacy and safety when biological men invade their sports and spaces. Children are indoctrinated with confusion and sexual chaos before they are old enough to understand what is being done to them. Men are demonized as toxic and disposable, leaving families fractured and defenseless. Faith is mocked as primitive, while mental illness is celebrated as authenticity.
When families disintegrate, nations crumble. And when law and order fail—as they always do eventually—women and children pay the price first. In war zones and failed states, rape becomes a weapon of war. Human trafficking surges. Basic human rights vanish. History has shown this pattern repeatedly. Liberalism does not protect the vulnerable. It lulls them into complacency, leaving them exposed when the storm arrives.
From Luxury to Tyranny
Liberalism thrives only in times of prosperity and peace. But peace never lasts. When economies collapse, when foreign enemies invade, when power grids go dark, liberalism evaporates overnight. The rainbow flags will be ripped down, and the very police officers liberals defunded will become their only line of defense against chaos.
History is merciless. The Bolsheviks promised equality while starving millions. China’s Communist Party promised liberation and delivered surveillance and slavery. Each time, liberal ideals were used as bait to lure populations into complacency. Once power was consolidated, those ideals were discarded, and tyranny took their place.
The bitter truth is that liberalism is a suicide note. It promises freedom while dismantling the very foundations that make freedom possible. When the last strong men are gone, when faith is mocked into extinction, when borders fall and families crumble, liberals will not inherit a utopia. They will inherit tyranny. And the dictators of the world—the ones who execute gays, silence women, and enslave minorities—will have the final say.
Conclusion
Liberalism is not the natural state of humanity. It is a fragile, fleeting anomaly that exists only inside the walls built by Christianity and constitutional democracy. It is the compassion, forgiveness, and moral strength found in Christ’s teachings that created societies secure enough to allow for freedom, equality, and diversity. Without those walls, there are no opportunities to be liberal. In most of the world, gay people are not celebrated—they are thrown from rooftops or executed. Women are not empowered—they are enslaved or silenced.
The great irony is that liberals spend their lives attacking the very forces that keep them safe. When those forces collapse, they will collapse with them. Freedom is not free. It is earned through sacrifice and defended through strength. It is not a universal right but a fragile flame that must be protected. Liberalism is the smoke rising from that flame—a sign that the fire is still burning, but also a warning that it can be extinguished.
When the smoke clears, the world will remember that civilization rests not on illusions of tolerance, but on the unyielding foundations of faith, family, and truth. Only through these foundations can compassion endure long enough to create the freedoms we now take for granted.
