THERE IS AN EPIDEMIC OF FYOGISM (FOR YOUR OWN GOOD-ISM) Former New York Mayor and Presidential candidate, Michael Bloomberg recently held a Town Hall meeting in the Denver Metro area, but the town wasn’t invited.
Among his proposals that emerged from the soundbites and photo ops was another ban on “assault style weapons” and the removal of immunity for gun makers and dealers in civil lawsuits. Bloomberg also wants to enact a federal version of “Red Flag” Gun laws.
This is hardly surprising since he has already spent a considerable amount from his vast 54 billion dollar fortune to twist the arms of state legislators around the country to impose numerous gun control laws regardless of what residents of those states might want. Never mind that he has never lived in any of those states or paid taxes in them.
When it comes to government regulations, gun control, and growing the power and scope of government, there is never a point at which Liberals or Leftists say, “Okay, that’s enough. We’re done now.”
Bloomberg for example, seems to fancy himself something of a helicopter parent for the country. He wants to protect us from a changing and growing list of perceived dangers such as sugary sodas, loud ear buds and salt.
Leftist ideology typifies the kind of narcissistic, dictatorial parents that send many adults into therapy for twenty years. Such parents tend to discourage their kids from growing up and making their own choices and mistakes. This behavior feeds their own needs, not the needs of their children. The desire to use one’s power and resources to treat adults like children and keep them dependent is not that much different, and it is anything but generous or altruistic.
There is an epidemic of FYOGism (For your own good-ism) that is being fueled by a Left that has de-educated the young in the principles of Liberty, individual freedom, and personal responsibility on which our country was proudly founded.
Without these cornerstones, people can be easily swayed to vote for people who push policies that infringe on their neighbor’s freedoms. They don’t understand that soon, the loosening of these boundaries will infringe on their own freedoms as well.
Republicans have the moral high ground on this and a host of other issues, but they have been too afraid and ill-prepared to claim it and adequately explain it. Genuine altruism and love for one’s fellow man requires restraint from using one’s own power to control them. It requires respect for their choices even when one heartily disagrees.
Maybe that’s why it’s so important to be reminded that whatever you conceive God to be, our rights come from God and not from men. God gave us free will but a man who thinks he’s God never does.
Because they are atheists.
Napoleon Syndrome. See Bobby De Whacko.
It’s not a God complex. It’s a Mussolini complex.
And Andrew Cuomo has it too.
“Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important.”
T.S. Eliot
Narcissists are drawn to activist politics. It’s their best opportunity to alter the lives of others and fulfill their narcissistic need.
“Why do Liberals like Bloomberg have a God Complex?”
I can assure you, that - on their deathbed,they will not have a God Complex......
That can’t come soon enough, IMO.
LOL! Thanks for the heads up. That deaf, dumb and blind kid...sure plays a mean pinball though...

He’s playing with his silver balls.
Truth.
And then there are the narcissistic sociopaths, whose every action taken is justified simply by how great they are, and they do not care at all about any consequence to those actions.
These ones can be seen in action with the coup.
They don’t care at all if the entire country explodes, they and their ends are all that matters.
Cause they look like reptilians who feed off control and tyranny. It really is a bad authoritarian look.
Michael Ironside as Ham Tyler in the original V used the term gooders for people like this.
The customary, legitimate way to get either party's nomination is to participate fully in the pre-primary campaigns, debates, and fund raising contests, and then get down into the mud and fight it out in the primaries. Indeed, the DNC has come up with a reasonable way to narrow the number of candidates in the debates by requiring each to show a minimum amount of strength in the polls and a broad base of fund raising. All of this is a lot like requiring military recruits to go through basic training.
Bloomie, OTOH, has chosen simply to buy his way in. He's refused even to attempt to participate in the debates, won't do the early primaries where he'd be forced actually to get on the ground and have serious contact with real voters, and refuses to do any public fund raising, meaning he won't have to show any concern for the hundreds of thousands of small contributors whose interests he needs to appeal to. This starkly contrasts with PDJT’s active search for small and medium contributors, a process that gives each contributor a powerful personal stake in the campaign, thereby reinforcing each contributor's determination to see PDJT win.
Bloomturd, IOW, is a private jet, limousine leftist billionaire with a contemptuous God-like attitude toward the whole electorate.
They start by denying God.
Here is a meme for someone to start. Michael Bloomberg aka Nana Bloomberg, Americas helicopter mom.
