Why Do Leftists Hate America?
American Thinker.com ^ | April 10, 2017 | Lloyd Marcus

A few days ago, I caught Trump's speech to the Building Trades Unions National Legislative Conference. In a nutshell, Trump vowed to fix the job-killing, out-of-control, crazy regulations harming businesses. Trump said, "One of my first acts as president was to stop one of the great sellouts of the American worker." Calling NAFTA a disaster, Trump said he took us out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The audience erupted with applause.

Trump is swiftly dismantling many of Obama's anti-America agenda items.

It dawned on me: this guy is simply implementing commonsense policies in the best interest of America and her citizens who elected him. So why is the American left responding with such unprecedented vitriol and bold, treasonous obstructionism? The simple answer is that leftists hate America and her biblical values. Therefore, when Trump came along vowing to make America great again, he ignited the leftists' hate, fear, and rage. Why such hate for one's own homeland?

Before you call me crazy, let us review.

During a leisurely Sunday stroll along a San Francisco pier with her dad, Kate Steinle was shot and killed by an illegal alien who had been deported five times but kept coming back to the sanctuary city. Kate's last words were "Help me, Dad."

Agree. As the article states, “The simple answer is that leftists hate America and her biblical values.”

And it starts with “Endowed by their Creator”. They can’t stand it and the values that flow from it. To have a free nation, you must be a moral nation, and they’ve been working overtime to destroy our morals as well.

LIBS are self-loathing losers who aren’t strong enough to kill themselves. They always will be idiots and worthless. The result is intense hatred projected outward.

Funny thing is though, this propaganda that public school is teaching has also created the opposite, the alt-right. What do you expect a poor white boy or even girl to do when you’re a kid and they start telling you your kind is evil and should be extinguished from the planet. The alt-right movement is instinctive self preservation.

“They hate America because it is one of the last bastions of Meritocracy.”

Yup! Meritocracy isn’t “fair” because some people end up with more than others.

Evil always attacks good. That is its nature.

"They don’t hate America."

While I mostly agree with your post, I don't agree with this part.

I think most of the left hates the US and themselves for being part of the US. Their beliefs and activities are nearly all detrimental to this country or its people, and they are people in this country.

If that isn't hate, it comes close enough to fool me.

Have to disagree.
You are right about them wanting to own it. But you are wrong about the hatred and the scope of their amibition.
They, the Transnational Progressives (liberals, progressives, globalists, whatever), hate every nation that clings to culture, identity, language, and borders.
They want a single world, without borders, ruled by them through a despotic world government.

You are missing something.
All of those worked quite well if you were one of the people in charge.

Like many have said; hate propaganda.

It would be fascinating and helpful if some psychologists could figure out a counter-propaganda/deprogramming method and implement it. That would sure help America and those poor people who get stuck in the liberal hate quicksand bog.

Yup! Meritocracy isn’t “fair” because some people end up with more than others.

Plus they don’t like to have to deal with Christian absolutes, e.g. this is right; that is wrong.

They HATE America because it is the only thing stopping the completion of their One-World communist "paradise". (disaster.) When our Republic falls to their Mobocracy, there will be no entity left to stop the Armies of Darkness from marching for a thousand years.

This is why Obamugabe was such a Messiah-figure to them - the first and only President to HATE America as much as they do - and the first President whose every action was to further damage or marginalize America in pursuit of their goal of dismantling the Republic.

Because libtards have a disintegrated mode of thought that results in the desire to destroy the good, which are America's values, such as natural rights, limited government, capitalism, and freedom. And they have a religious mode of thought that leads them to worship their god which is big government, force, and control.

Why Do Leftists Hate America?

Liberals are tools of the Progressive Movement or as Lenin correctly labeled them; useful idiots.

Liberals are people who have no inherent intellectually capacity to draw from so they remain in need of masters. Liberals will hate what the Progressive Movement instructs them to hate.

My theory of liberals is simply that they are people who lack the genome that allows humans to process the reality of the situations they encounter in life.

Never underestimate the power of ignorant people in large groups.

Most leftists are failures. They harbor personality traits of hatred, envy, and ingratitude for accomplished, hardworking Americans.

Their pride makes them think that they are morally and intellectually superior to others and so they think that they should rule over us. As long as America is strong, they won’t be able to gain power. So they try to destroy America in their quest to rule. Like Milton’s Satan in “Paradise Lost”, they think “it’s better to rule in hell, than to serve in heaven.” They have satanic pride and have that they can’t rule. They also hate that America was founded on Christian values, which are opposite of theirs.

I think you are on to something. Then you add in a lifetime worth of musicians and artists denouncing “the system” the average high school dropout, or barley scraped by idiot think they can look cool and educated by denouncing their country and what it represents. I see it all the time with my well meaning but dumbass “friends” on Facebook. They mean no real harm and just want to express an opinion and look cool but are unwittingly giving credibility to people who really do want to destroy the US as we know and love it. The real leftists are a very small minority but our popular culture/media (controlled by a had full of billionaires) gives them power.

It’s because they feel “cheated” over various matters in their life that turned out poorly.

Others here on FR have articulated it far better than I.

It all boils down to a hatred of authority.

That authority was once dad. Now it is the gov’t.

Leftists need something to hate. It defines them.
