This is good entry point for this conversation to take place and the question that I have is, what responsibility does the Orthodox Christian have if things start to go downhill and, God forbid, things go sideways?
I'm a new convert to Orthodoxy, but was a red-pilled Protestant for 12 year prior to my conversion and was under the conventional mindset there may come a time where resistance would be necessary (as Roosh says, it's in the name) however as I read the lives of The Saints as well as the recent persecuted Orthodox Christians in Romania and Soviet Russia, it seemed they considered an honor to suffer for Christ and Martyrdom was the ultimate calling for the Orthodox Christian.
What kind of preparation is appropriate and what should be the response of an Orthodox Christian?
Is it simply to ensure that we're living in a constant state of repentance or is there something more that God expects of us?
This is where I kind of miss Roosh's podcasts, since they usually contained some twists and turns in and out of these topics and he offered an Orthodox view on stuff like this. The only other resource that I've found that comes close is E. Michael Jones.
The Rod Dreher retweet of Jennifer Rubin's tweet is pretty alarming, but not surprising to most of us who understand history and the JRS which is why I attempt to stress to those who will listen that in order to really understand what's happening today in America, it's important to understand history and the rebellion against Logos and who's behind it, since it seems to me it's the common thread throughout all of history and simply a continuation of this rebellion today in America.
I think people who may only go to Infowars for alternative news only pay attention to the last 100-200 years of history and are missing the big picture, since this part of the puzzle is NEVER discussed and the usual suspects are always ignored which leads me to believe that Alex Jones is not really interested in solving the problem, since it's impossible to do so without identifying the root cause.
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us all.
