Panicked Esquire Liberal Worries that 'Rioting Only Makes Trump Stronger'
NewsBusters ^ | June 3, 2016 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 06/03/2016 7:09:58 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

Esquire magazine writer Charles Pierce must be in a state of panic after the events following yesterday's Donald Trump rally in San Jose, California when anti-Trump protesters violently attacked Trump supporters. Last week Pierce wrote that such attacks only help Trump and that has him extremely worried. Unfortunately for him, even some his fellow liberal journalists such as Emmett Rensin, who was today suspended from Vox, still haven't got a clue on just how incredibly counter-productive such riots are.

Scott Adams (Dilbert creator) had a great comment about these riots.

Are you going to share? Or make us guess?

They miss the point entirely. This isn't a strategy by the left, a tactic they must change -> it's who they are. They are everything they are accusing us of all the time - racist, violent, out of control, angry. I think their hatred of guns probably reflects the fact that they know THEY shouldn't be allowed near them.

The left is one giant projection of their whole world - what they perceive as positive about themselves -> they claim as their own characteristics. What's negative -> they claim as us.

In reality - nothing they say, good or bad, has anything to do with us, and when it intersects, that's only by chance. They are walking delusions identifying with the ying and externalizing the yang - but THEY are the whole of that delusion. Not me, not you. We are just silhouettes appearing in their dream.

When you are in a room with a liberal ... there are always 2 yous -> yourself, and the illusion in the liberals mind. They are talking to and about the mental formation that reflects aspects of themselves, not you. Of course they think you are a racist, cult member, stupid, angry - it's everything about them they can't accept. It sounds hokey and psychobabbly, but it's not once you really, really see it.

This is why they can appear so serious and sincere when they are accusing you of things you've never even considered, much less had to resist as immoral (because it never occurred to you) and for which, 2 weeks later, they find themselves either exposed or under indictment ... meanwhile, there is an endless stream of hoaxes and false prosecutions against us. Can anyone name a single hate crime or cop prosecution that panned out to actually be a white persecuting a black for being black? Nope. And, of course, from time to time, a blind squirrel finds a nut, and the accusation will match.

The main point is, these people are under a very subtle and yet all encompassing ... delusion ... or dream state -> and that dream world - the things, animals and people in it ... all projections of themselves ... victims, heroes, crusaders etc ... it's all about pride and shame -> theirs. Two sides of the same coin of Ego.

I read this to my wife and she declared it brilliant, and I agree. Beautifully written, well done.

It also reminds me of the biblical verse, 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12: "and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them. For this reason, God will send them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie, in order that judgment will come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness.…"

Anything that obama, Hitlery, the RINO’s, the rioters, Hollywood, the MSM, the lefties in general and other American hating misfits are doing is what’s electing Trump.

I have a feeling the pendulum has swung to the left as high as it can possibly go, and is now back on it’s way to the right.

“This isn’t a strategy by the left, a tactic they must change -> it’s who they are.”

Yes. And considering their actions now, and the ‘we won’ actions of the current administration, just imagine how they would treat the rest of us if they wound up in a significant majority in the US. The word ‘minority’ would then have absolutely no meaning for them. That is a scary type of hypocrisy.

I’d like to be a bounty hunter and hijack Soros’s sorry butt back to France or Russia. Let him live out his life in a Russian prison. And let them confiscate all his ill-gotten wealth.

Thanks ... and I agree - the Bible, properly interpreted but sometimes coming right out and saying it so obviously that ... 'it can't be that simple!' ... nailed ALL of this stuff perfectly. Always it comes down to pride and delusion ... and that goes for any of the suffering I myself have caused myself and others.

We are a lunatic species (original sin)! If we know it, we're maybe OK ... if we don't ... we are an absolute nightmare to ourselves and those around us.

Re-reading ... it's so simple, almost funny were it not for the useless misery.

Spot on. That is why they blame Trump for their violence. They call us fascists, while they act as fascists disrupting primary rallies they should not even be at. When the left gains complete control through gun control and voter fraud, they are then safe to show their true self. Kalifornia is obviously close to that breakout point. When their are safe to accept their projected self and display it for all to see. We may see mass riots, Jewish genocide attacks and mass rapes soon in California. Similar to what the left is doing in Europe.

Dennis Prager said that people who cannot control themselves seek to control others. Liberals have said it is always the fault of external sources and your feelings (however fleeting) are the guide. So they are ruled by emotions and have no internal controls because they were told there is no need.
Thus the demands to control others’ words that might set them off, control others’ actions that might upset them.

This is also why the Founders said freedom was only an option of a moral people. You can’t have society stand long if people have no boundaries, internal or external.

Yep. A rich vein of violence runs through the entire 100+ year history of the Democrat party. It’s how they roll.

Reasonable people adjust their politics to comport with the facts.

Leftists adjusts the facts to comport with their politics.

Old news. Back in 1990 I happened upon a “community demonstration” in Manhattan, NY. I happened to notice one angry demonstrator who stood out because he was missing an ear. A few weeks later another angry demonstration, this time on TV from California and who should pass the camera, shaking his banner and yalling? You got it...no ear.
