Democrats’ political lies are now literally breeding mental illness
NY Post ^ | 11/10/24 | Post Editorial Board

Posted on 11/11/2024 1:19:53 AM PST by Libloather

Most Democrats seem to be getting over last week’s thumping well enough, but a horrific fraction seem to have bought into their leaders’ irresponsible, apocalyptic rhetoric — and so are damaging themselves, their families and even their children.

The most obvious case is Anthony Nephew, the Minnesota man who apparently killed his wife, ex-partner and his two sons before taking his own life in reaction to Donald Trump’s victory.

Yes, he evidently had longstanding mental-health issues; we’ll never know how much of his final crisis came from marinating for years in the extremist, hateful rhetoric now common on the left.

But there’s some connection: Why else did Democrats from President Biden on down call for a lowering of the temperature after the first attempt to assassinate Donald Trump?

Too bad the whole party quickly turned back to “fascist” and “end of democracy,” not to mention “Nazi” and “garbage.”

And pushing outright lies about abortion, their other main issue this year.

For the record, no state bans aborting an ectopic pregnancy. None of them criminalizes having a miscarriage, nor surgery to save the mother’s life. Every hospital in America is legally obliged to treat a woman suffering complications after taking abortion pills.

All the folks spreading misinformation to the contrary (including, obscenely, health professionals and so-called journalists) are, sickly, endangering the lives of vulnerable women.

Yet rank, hateful distortion is now routine for Democrats: Back in 2021, recall, Biden was raging about “Jim Crow 2.0,” the Georgia voting law that . . . has now seen two straight elections (2022 and 2024) with record turnout. (Major League Baseball still owes Atlanta an apology for pulling the All-Star Game over that.)

And some work gloves? I guess?

Seriously, this Democrat came up with some ridiculous notion because he had no beliefs - other than Leftist Democrat Propaganda

Tragic

Based on experience, I would say the Lefties are actually telling us what they would like to do to Christians if they get the chance.

The Dark Principalities and Powers in the heavenly realms are able to oppress people via thoughts. Worse for the unsaved.

This is why the Apostle Paul said sing to yourself (Christians) hymns. Sometimes I’ll roll through several Christian songs when I’m feeling weary from battles.

I personally have seen those weak in the Faith coming up with all sorts of notions of things that aren’t happening. But then, initiate personal struggles resulting in arguments, etc.

They truly are vain imaginations as the Scripture calls it.

That too, most of it is just plain greed and money driven. Notice how all the networks have immediately dropped the extreme bias agenda since the election? They know if they do not change their sales model with the tide it will hurt their bottom line. I have been enjoying this recent new bipartisan “just state the facts” rather than bias propaganda programming.

Let’s see how long it lasts...

It won’t last very long.

They laid the seeds of discontent before the election.

MSM can pull back, but the viral social media with its censorship and echo chambers will become more entrenched.

Bongino was talking about this book/topic a few days ago from the author of The Road Less Traveled, must be an excellent read.

I highly recommend both. Given today’s problems with the Left, “People of the Lie” is a must-read.

There's a powerful link between most, perhaps all, mental illness and what we call "human evil."

The problem is, we've rebranded evil and demonic activity as *mental illness* for far too many people.

I'm NOT saying all mental illness is demonic activity, I recognize there is legitimate cases of it.

I hate that I have to put that disclaimer out even here on FR but I know someone will shred me for it otherwise.

If someone has turned their backs on God and hates Him that much, and turns that evil, chances are it's NOT a true mental illness issue.

You cannot reject God and think you'll be OK. SOMETHING will always come in to fill the void.

Thank you guys for the interesting dialogue.

Indeed, too many lost people who live by lies.
We can pray for them.

Well said. And absolutely true.

The Lefties have not only rejected God, they have rejected basic, right-in-front-of-your-nose reality.

This cannot end well for them.
