We've seen screaming rage mainstreamed like this before. It did not end well for anyone.
Different people have different emotional styles — a fact that is important today, because the Democrat party, which used to sound moderate, is now specializing in screaming rage.
When New York gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin was nearly murdered by a knife-wielding thug the other day, we probably saw a direct result of screaming rage being broadcast, over and over again, by the Big Media. We should not be surprised if this happens more often in this political climate.
The woke left today is full of "narcissistic rage," as it's called in psychiatry. Hitler exhibited narcissistic rage in his radio speeches, and that style of emotional agitation can be powerful in stirring people up. But during the same years, FDR gave calm radio chats that were meant to reassure Americans. Conservatives might not love FDR, but nobody would confuse him with Hitler.
What is worrisome today is that the Obama-Biden left now seems to be deliberately adopting narcissistic rage as a weapon of war. This can't be pure chance, because the Democrats have a small army of high-paid consultants who write and massage their public messages. When Liz Warren does her Vladimir Lenin imitation, we can see the professional polish of her act. Those high-paid media spinners of the left will undoubtedly raise their rhetorical heat higher and higher toward the midterms. That will not be an accident. Some of the woke left may be genuinely mad, but there is method in their madness. Their aim is to make all of us a little more mad.
Most Americans don't like psychiatric jargon, but we don't need jargon to feel Hitler's narcissistic rage in those old speeches, even if we don't understand the words.

While I believe the enemedia should have Freedom of Speech, they should not be free of the consequences of their speech.
The Left doesn’t think we have the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
I am reluctant to acknowledge the Left’s right to free speech. I say we take away the printing press from anyone who pushes Progressive or Woke ideology.
Of course, if anyone find some big important document that says we can’t do stuff like that, I’m sure everyone would pay attention.
Young adults learn quickly that their narcissism stands in the way of getting the things they want (income, companionship, respect).
Keeping that in mind, consider that "Leftism" is, by its nature, an ideology of adolescence--its goal being the creation of a kind of permanent Never-Never Land. Its principles are superficial by nature...things that "sound" good on the surface versus things that actually work.
What the Nazis did to the Jews, Democrats will do to us.
Do you wonder why civility is absent in our national discourse and why do so many people feel free to openly challenge and ignore the law????
They are taking their cue from the ‘media’
They’ll try, alright. It’s up to is to stop it.
By whatever means necessary.

Well said.

They’re unholy.
Narcissism is primarily an urban developmental disorder. Most Demonrats are big city dwellers, consumed with envy caused by constant reminders of their inferiority. The worst thing imaginable to a narcissist is their own death, and they manage to live longer than anyone wants them to. That's also why they want to disarm their scapegoats.
