People like that don’t know any “straight white males” like myself and others where I am from. They are isolated in their elitist circles and have no idea of the challenges and the beauty of those challenges that people like us face. We’re from the backwoods, the mountains, the Deep South, flyover county, midwesterners, the northeast, the southwest, Washington, Oregon, Cali, even a puddle jump over to Hawaii and in the great state of Alaska. We’re everywhere and we don’t have a silver spoon. We’re hard working honest people who just want to make a living to support our families and to be left alone. We face ridicule, hardships, uncertain times with faith in our Creator, knowing He will not burden us beyond what we can bare and that, when all is said and done, the beauty of His blessings will shine so bright that even our darkest moments cannot compare. We face daily opposition to our values, never wishing harm on anyone else because of theirs, but constantly harassed for ours. Our own government and media has facilitated this harassment and has become a machine aligned and weaponized against our very way of life. We take blow after blow after blow and the machine just gets bigger and more violent. They’ve even decided to weaponize the lRS against us, both in the literal and figurative sense. Yet we push on, striving to provide for our families and to serve the nation we love beyond comprehension. Why should we continue to put up with all of this for a nation that has declared we deplorables the enemy? Well, some may eventually give in to the old adage of “if you can’t beat them join them”, and who could even blame them? Nevertheless, for those of us so-called “privileged” people who understand what I am saying, we continue to put up with this because our love of country exceeds all of the hatred and vitriol those who wish to hijack her can dish out. We know this nation is a special nation blessed by God Almighty Himself and we know that He will never leave or forsake us. So yes, maybe we are “privileged”. Privileged to know the Creator God of the universe, the same God who established this nation by His divine providence.
