Few get that.
The left doesn’t want to recognize rights come from God. In their atheistic view, “rights” are conferred by the State, not individually but “collectively.”
To deny that rights are divine in origin is to deny that men are creations of God, and do not have eternal souls. In other words, we are just pieces of meat, to be disposed of as the State sees fit.
When looked at that way, everything that happened in the Soviet Union is quite understandable.
It’s not that the left doesn’t “get” that - they actively REJECT that.
It inhibits their power over their fellow human being.
it takes 2 minutes to explain it. I know, I’ve explained it numerous times and to some pretty dim bulbs. they all got it and understood why they want all their Rights to originate from God. even atheists get it.
