For some perspective, I have been studying and following politics since 1972. Over the years I have noticed that some people’s ability to not be aware of the blindingly obvious has metastasized from a condition of convenience into a near fatal addiction both personally and nationally.
The core support of liberal ideology, the ability to ignore the obvious, has been mastered by ninety percent of the media, ninety nine percent of democrats and one hundred percent of those who have “no interest” in politics.
My grandfather, a very wise man from a somewhat simpler time used to say, “Some things are wrong simply because they are wrong.” The current trans/pedo craze sweeping education and popular culture comes to mind.
In a sad indictment of popular culture today that statement of the obvious is considered to be wildly intolerant by every leftist I know. Popular culture as it exists today is deeply malignant and utterly tragic in scope and effect. On the following beliefs liberals will fight you tooth and nail. They will shout you down, call you names, try to intimidate you, deplatform you and get you not only fired but make you un-hirable. But wait, there’s more! Unsatisfied with just attacking you they will go after your family, even your kids. It’s who they are.
Liberals do not believe that adults grooming, sexualizing or having sex with minors is wrong.
Liberals do not believe there are only two genders.
Liberals do not believe that boys don’t belong in girls bathrooms/locker rooms.
Liberals do not believe that stealing, especially if approved by democrat DA’s, is wrong.
Liberals do not believe locking criminals up has any effect on crime and is in fact, racist.
Liberals do not believe that if you are convicted of a crime your skin color is irrelevant.
Liberals do not believe that keeping a database of known gang members is both prudent and not racist.
Liberals do not believe that defending yourself or others is acceptable, especially if you use a gun.
Liberals do not believe in free speech for you, that’s a right they reserve for themselves.
Liberals do not believe in truth as a concept, only truth as they see it, wish it to be or can brow beat you into accepting.
Liberals do not believe hypocrisy applies to them. Sadly, they are so far, correct.
Liberals do not believe the law applies to them, it only applies to you, and only when it’s convenient for them.
Liberals do not believe in religion, except for big government, abortion on demand, BLM, The ACLU, The SPLC, global warming, The 1619 Project, Jan 6th and transgenderism.
Liberals do not believe that Venezuela emptying its prisons and insane asylums into our country is a problem.
Liberals do not believe the Mexican drug cartels now running our southern border is a bad thing.
Liberals do not believe that allowing the mentally ill to remain homeless and living on the streets is cruel. I could go on for days, guns, voter ID, forced vaccinations, the police/surveillance state, public education but I think you get the point.
I admit, it can take a lot of work to be a liberal. After all, when everything is racist, bigoted, misogynistic or offensive the emotional investment alone required to be a liberal must be stupendously high.
Constructing and maintaining a fantasy bubble to live and work in 24/7, not to mention being right about everything 100% of the time, must be exhausting.
Also, I can see where having to deny your lying eyes nearly all the time can become the equivalent of the kids on vacation asking, “Are we there yet?”
Lastly, I can see where having unwanted shards of truth poking holes in your precious and expensively maintained bubble all the time must be infuriating.
Maybe that’s why liberals, democrats and progressives are so angry all the time.
I believe it would be more accurate to say that liberals, democrats and progressives are defined by their love of hate.
Perhaps the most tragic part of all is just how far they will go to prove my point.
