When policies consistently produce death, chaos, division, and decline -- yet are defended with religious fervor -- it is reasonable to ask whether something far darker than mere politics is at work.
Conversations with many on the political Left have become nearly impossible when anything of substance arises. Unless the topic is kept superficial -- sports, entertainment, or the weather -- any serious discussion quickly devolves into an automatic pivot: blame Trump. It doesn’t matter if the news is objectively good for America; they will either ignore it, find fault, or reframe it as harmful. Conversely, catastrophic outcomes stemming from their own policies are denied for as long as possible, then quietly memory-holed or inverted -- victims recast as oppressors, perpetrators as victims.
Consider recent examples. Somalians who defrauded American taxpayers of billions are suddenly portrayed as innocent migrants targeted by Trump’s supposed racism. Military action that removes a brutal dictator becomes an illegal war. Destroying cartel boats carrying fentanyl that kills hundreds of thousands of Americans yearly is labeled murder. Shutting down human-trafficking networks that deliver women and children into sexual slavery is condemned as family separation. The gruesome reality of late-term abortion is sanitized as “choice,” “health care,” or “reproductive justice.” Arsonists, looters, and those who paralyze cities are defended as exercising First Amendment rights, while grandmothers who silently pray outside abortion facilities and parents who speak at school-board meetings are branded domestic terrorists.
After years of observing this pattern, I am convinced that many on the Left -- Democrats and RINOs alike -- are not merely mistaken. A great number appear to be driven by some combination of ideological blindness, profound ignorance, or outright malice. Nothing they advocate makes America safer, stronger, more prosperous, or more united. The policies they champion achieve the opposite: weakening borders,

The goal of the left does seem to be the destruction of Western Civilization.
The Devil wears blue…with a lot of green accessories.
That’s a well written article. Kudos to Kevin Finn and the American Thinker.
Strong language. Accurate language, but still strong.

“When policies consistently produce death, chaos, division, and decline…”
Agreed that it is an excellent & absolutely on point article. However, the author missed the mark when he whiffed on having a strong opening by using alliteration. The word “chaos” is redundant when considering the other words in the potential alliterative phrase. Perhaps he could get some pointers from Clarice Feldman since these website blog compendiums (AT, TownHall, etc.) can’t manage a modicum of editorial guidance.
Meaning the destruction of straight, White men.
The contemporary Democrat party has aligned itself since he late 60s with communist ideals which are designed to uproot American civilization. Despite the election of conservative representatives, the socialist and communistic influence has emerged as victor. The “cold war” might have ostensibly ended in the news, but it continues to rage as the Democrat left leads the charge against morality, courage, and valor. They made a deal with the devil but will soon have to pay the price.
HA! I saw them at the Jax beach auditorium once. 😉
“ideological blindness”
Most of us have a blind spot where we don’t see what does not fit our world view. For most of us the blind spot is small and limited to one or two small topics.
But what is increasingly obvious, and distressing, is that those in the MSM whose job it is to see everything and filter what is important for us to see in a 1 hour broadcast have such big blindspots of which they are not aware.
Some know and lie. But so many don’t really know what they do not know.

Alinsky dedicated his Rules for Radicals to Satan.
This is not really a surprising revelation.
Good to see more people realizing who has been behind the curtain all along.
