The Left's Latest Battleground Is Your Neighborhood
American Thinker ^ | 1 Mar, 2021 | Linda R. Killian

Posted on 03/01/2021 4:18:59 AM PST by MtnClimber

The progressives running the Biden administration are planning a two-pronged strategy to attack traditional suburban families where they live — in their homes and schools. The Biden campaign platform, largely written by Bernie Sanders and his supporters, called for initiatives for equity in housing and education. Going forward, these will translate into actions by HUD) to assert its policy to Affirmatively Further Fair Housing (AFH) and for the Department of Education to impose Critical Race Theory (CRT) to attack both real and intellectual property. The strategy got underway with the new president's executive order on equity that calls for "an ambitious whole-of-government equity agenda."

Their primary weapon is the concept of disparate impact, a conveniently squishy theory that there needs to be no factual finding of discriminatory zoning or racism in schools to conclude that a community is racist. All disparate impact requires is for a bureaucrat to declare an imbalance of race or income among the residents of a local community or in its school's Advanced Placement courses.

To understand the seriousness of the assault, it is necessary to understand the philosophical origins of the left's positions on private property and the class struggle. The first tenet of Marxism is the abolition of private real property. The second is the class struggle between the oppressed proletariat and the oppressing bourgeoisie.

In the 1960s and 1970s, Marxism was adapted to education, called Critical Race Theory. Proponents of CRT believe that racism is normal in the U.S. and that black Americans, Latinos, and American Indians are excluded from educational equity. They believe that inequity stems from the "tension" between property rights and human rights. More recently, Black Lives Matter explicitly reframed the Marxist class struggle between the oppressed and the oppressors in terms of blackness and whiteness.

They should apply this to their neighborhoods first.

“traditional values of self-reliance, academic achievement, delayed gratification, hard work, and family”. All signs of White Supremacy.
Just wait til you learn what they plan to do to Rural Areas.

West Virginia maybe. Solid conservative...and they respect the 2A. Plus, I don't think it's being flooded by West Coast or Northern Commies as much as Texas, Florida and other currently conservative states. You're well traveled...would love to have your opinion...

It is the nature of revolutionaries to pick at the existing system...and pick and pick. And keep on picking until they either win or until they get kicked in the teeth.

In the U.S., the Left has been picking for quite a while. And they keep upping the ante.

They have not been kicked in the teeth because they just haven't hit that "last nerve" as your mom used to say.

But they are getting very close to that "last nerve" when they move into our neighborhoods.

As an aside, Portland and Seattle are NOT "our" neighborhoods. They are their--the Left's--neighborhoods.

Seems like a rather long-term plan for a country soon to be doomed by climate change.

Do not doubt this. They are angry that normal people abandoned the cities because the politicians turned them into havens for street thugs. They hate the fact that people who live in the suburbs haven’t created a violent environment.

“Liberals” want everyone to be equally miserable. No more safe suburbs. Street thugs given “free” houses in the midst of the normal people. “Free” houses that we pay for. Normal people living in fear in the suburbs. Your daughter raped in school. Your sons beat up and their lunch money stolen. They really do want this for the people they hate: people of no privilege, people of European background, people with a Christian sense of morals.

And they will force us to pay for it!

Who will enforce these Federal edicts in local neighborhoods?

How will they return home safely to their families at the end of the day?

I hope there are no unfortunate workplace arsons at slums being erected in good neighborhoods.

We'll see. Maybe this is the Liberals pushing their agenda TOO far.... Middle class Liberals in their smugly complacent suburban hidey holes will finally GET the idea of property.

If they finally comprehend ‘property’ there will be hope for them

I can give you two recent possibilities/examples.

Have you even been on the social media platform, Nextdoor? It’s supposed to be a helpful way for neighbors to help neighbors with community suggestions for docs, restaurants, hairdressers, housekeepers, lost pets, lost and found, on and on.

Only, I’ve noticed in OUR area, it’s become a political palace of the Karen police....for stores that have employees that aren’t masked, anti-Trump propaganda, etc.

Another thing I recently saw, on our family place water provider (near the Hill Country) was a ‘snitch’ form you can use to rat on neighbors who are using water on days they’re not designated to. The horror!!!!

That’s two ways that I can see this being enforced, and, I’m sure the lefties will come up with many more. But....social media shaming and utilities (think green!) are two that quickly come to mind.

Just wait til they turn the 👁R S goons loose on searching down these violators.

At least we’ve been warned.
