Where Are Our Leaders? (Quick thoughts on the subject)

I was thinking about this today (08/27/25) because of something Phisto Sobanii wrote on Substack.

This got me thinking.

Do we need "leaders?" Why is everyone waiting on said leaders? I think that might be part of what's missing in all this--not the leaders themselves--but the idea that leaders are needed to effect change.

There is often no “ruler” on the right. The true right (not what leftists call "right," which is actually tyrannical).

Those on the right tend to be free-thinking people, who are less likely to rally around a “ruler.” This is why the right is not rallied in the same way that those on the left are. Those on the right tend to be problem solvers.

This is also why those on the left (at least the followers, not those at the top) actually think that Trump is a dictator. They don’t understand the Constitution, and how it’s meant to be applied. If they did they would never have supported leftist leaders in the first place, as leftist leaders are always trying to circumvent the Constitution.

Those on the left would argue that Trump is a ruler/dictator. But most of the people I’ve run into like what Trump is doing—not particularly his “leadership,” not what he’s telling other people to do (because, for the most part he’s not). No, most people like results.

Once people see those results, then they start to rally behind someone.

There are plenty of people online that don’t bring results. That’s not to say that they don’t have good ideas. And good ideas can spread. Good ideas are needed. Good ideas bring people hope. Good ideas can inspire people to take action.

The best news I’ve seen is that younger people are trending more to the right. Because they are acting on what they’ve seen or experienced—not what they are told.

It’s the generations before them that are looking for nostalgia, and still believe that there are those in Washington who are looking out for their best interest. There are not. However, there might be those in Washington whose current goals align with some of ours. And we should take advantage of that situation.

Up to, and until, enough people start doing what’s necessary (within their own lives) to turn things around, we’ll continue to slide further and further to the left.

There are no true “leaders” on the right. There are however, those who inspire others, and that’s what we need to keep things headed in the right direction.

The American Revolution was not fought by “leaders”—it was fought by those who were inspired by leaders.

What do you think?
