Ronald Reagan warned us that we are always just one generation away from being projected in the wrong direction by youngsters not schooled in good vs. evil. Who do not know and cannot appreciate the evils of socialism/communism. That is why the globalist commies work so hard at capturing the minds of kids, brainwashing them. It is why they want to extinguish history that roots them out, and the points the light of truth on them.
JRR Tolkien famously wrote The Lord of the Rings, a work of fiction, but one that clearly defines good and evil, and why good must triumph. In 1962 Tolkien began writing a sequel to the trilogy, it was entitled The New Shadow. In his advance summary of it, he lays out a continuation of the story, here it is 220 years later and Aragorn's son is now the king and supreme ruler of Middle Earth. But, the king is elderly, very old, and in his final days. He and one other character, a grandson of one of Gondor's heroes that day of the Battle of Minas Tirith, are the only ones who have detailed knowledge of and an appreciation for the evil of Sauron. Most people living 220 years later were obviously born long after all of that and think it does not apply to them. Like we hear from people "Why do I have to learn history?"
Tolkien only wrote 13 pages of this new novel. He started, stopped, tore up the manuscript three separate times, before on his 4th try managed to compose 13 pages, before stopping again. In a 1964 letter, Tolkien tried to explain why he could not bring himself to complete the book. "It is too depressing," he wrote, "too close to the truth." Tolkien in a rare interview later explained he was deeply troubled by what he was seeing in the world. The "good" had defeated "evil" i.e. defeated Hitler's Nazism, and sat by why another evil, potentially worse, Soviet communism rose to power. And right under our noses, he said.
I have read the 13 pages, it is published in a book by Christopher Tolkien, JRR's son. Right from the beginning we see how evil will lay low, hide, bide its time, waiting for the right moment to emerge again. Then seeks out the weak-minded to recruit to its cause. In this case it is a hermit, but a powerful man, a hunter, living off the land who blames a local land baron for his woes. We get introduced to the character, but it doesn't go any further...he wrote just 13 pages.
There is a "new shadow" lurking in the world. Many of us see it, recognize it for what it is, but too many do not. They know how to recruit the weak-minded, those easily fooled with false promises of a better world.
