The Top Three Reasons Why Liberals Hate Conservatives
Western Free Press ^ | Sept. 21, 2014 | Christopher Cook

Posted on 09/30/2014 6:17:48 PM PDT by connell

Have you ever been verbally assaulted by someone on the political left with a ferocity you didn’t quite understand? Have you seen it happen to friends and colleagues, or watched in horror as the media establishment does it to a public figure?

At some point or other, nearly everyone on the political right has witnessed or been the victim of an attack designed not to elucidate facts, but rather to paint him or her as a villain.

My attention was recently drawn to a typical such calumny from a Facebook exchange:

Republicans hate anything that isn’t white, wealthy, and christian at least in appearance. They hate the poor, women, and minorities. They hate science and don’t believe that the global warming we clearly are experiencing is man made. They hate any government programs that help the poor and minorities, and the particularly despise immigrants, particularly the illegal kind. They love programs that line the pockets of oil companies, mining companies, and are willing to export jobs with wild abandon.

They hate public education, and they despise public schools and the public school teachers and public university professors. And since the do not respect the market place of ideas, they hate tenure (that gives teachers academic freedom) because it prevents them from firing teachers who are Democrats and who might infect some student with their liberal ideas. They want insurance companies to make a maximum of profit, and are perfectly willing for the health insurance companies to kill people by refusing service to anyone that might cost them a buck more than the median expense.

This is not a recitation of facts; it is a series of smears. It is the construction of a cartoonish super-villain, made of straw and woven together with calumny. The giant straw villain is

Its simple, we are standing in their way, just like the laws of physics, human nature, and inevitable political corruption. The only difference is its easier for their leaders to blame us, their political opposition no matter how powerless we are for their failures than re-asset their mindless policies.

We know their ultimate goal is not only unworkable its guaranteed to destroy the very freedom and prosperity we still have as they ruthlessly try to create their ‘paradise’ at progressively greater and greater authoritarian expense. Its not hard to even understand theses conclusions from a theoretical stand point, much less the historic one that this sort of behavior has always led to despotism. To make a population behave in anyway that is against its natural vocation is to apply force and thereby deprive freedom. This is basic logic, you either choose to do a thing for your own reasons or you do it because someone else(government) forced you to do it for their reasons.

The problem of course with that force is no matter how supposedly wisely directed or well meaning its director, its still reduces we the people to mere slaves. Unable to live by our own vocation. Also insistently the nature of those directing it tends to itself be somewhat self-centered and very often unwise and ignorant to economic reality.

This is perhaps the most curious part of the leftist dilution, the very compromises and setbacks they have routeenly accepted in the name of advancing their cause towards that Utopia demonstrate how that Utopian could never be implemented or maintain. The corruption of their own political leaders are but a shadow of the power and corrupt temptation of the leaders who would run their utopia.
The Dis-function & wast of their own existing Social engineering and redistribution efforts, are but a drop in the bucket compared to that which is to come. The fact that they accept this corruption rather than try to fix or revisit it only goes to prove that there is not even political inclination in themselves towards functional utibian government.

This brings us to my final point. Leftist really need us Conservatives who Do care about corruption and functionality running their oppressive systems because they know in practice they can’t do it, they don’t have the mentality, intelligence, or displin to sustain or create working systems. In the end all that debt is left on our shoulders, that is those of us who they don’t end up having killed for allegedly “standing in the way” of their fanciful utopia.

Theses people may not be evil but they sure work for evil, and in the end they will expect us to do their dirty work.

Liberals hate conservatives because they unconsciously believe that they have the artist gene and that means they can be a bohemian, flout the rules and they are ever so unhesitatingly “clever, classless and free.” Oh, and they are talented devils too whether they ever lay a hand to brush, pen or music. The underlying presumption is that being a liberal and “artiste” is so unbelievably cool that all your friends are dying of envy; and such profound proclivities also presupposes that one is morally superior, not by choice, but by the God given disposition of being an enlightened, sensitive artiste and keen observer of human nature. Oh, sorry, I’ll take back the God given part because they know God is dead and it’s really all about their genes, and blue jeans too. They believe they will live forever because they are children and children don’t have to grow up to become adults, who’ll then become old adults and die. No No No. Romance means forever and it’s about being a romantic, finding oneself in Tibet, a quest for the ME of the Me Generation.

“#1 reason: we are not part of their cult - their worldview is their religion and we are heretics

#2 reason: liberals hate consequences and deep down they are angry at themselves; since they flee from responsibility, there has to be a scapegoat. That’s us.”

Your right, and eventually when they have the power they will try to have us killed not merely made jobless, and ostracized.

Like a woman deciding to end the life of her own child because she doesn’t to be bothered with the burden of giving birth to that which she choose to conserve. The left is anything but above murder to avoid personal responsibility for their own choices.

Why does the baloney reject the grinder, as William F. Buckley once famously said after Robert F. Kennedy refused to appear on his program......

They, of course, would disagree and say that’s all a bunch of hooey (I’ve been down that road), but you’re right. Not all of them wouid load us into cattle cars, but some definitely would. A shocking percentage, in fact. The fact that they are ignorant of their own proclivities does not change a thing.

Sure, but we cannot discount the influence of ideologies on people’s behavior. Some ideologies make us worse, or allow us to be worse.

Yep.

But what if there are only two choices (item 6)? Doesn’t that ever happen?

I was just having a conversation with someone about the damage I believe the counter-enlightenment did.
