The Left's Endgame Is Not Chaos. It's Worse.

On an episode of The Candace Owens Show that aired this past May, Owens had as her guest Dennis Prager. While I agreed with most of the points made by both Ms. Owens and Mr. Prager, one item struck me as an example of superficial analysis. They declared that the primary objective of the Left is "chaos." In an immediate sense, this seems true; the so-called "progressive left" does appear to be deliberately sowing chaos in America today.

However, I submit that the Left's "chaos" is an intermediate objective, the means to an end. They have a well defined endgame. The Communist Bloc countries were a lot of things, but they were generally not chaotic. They were highly regimented societies, and while they did not have the material standard of living or political freedoms enjoyed in the West, there were some agreeable aspects, as related by the wife of one Carlo Alcos in an online feature story on the Matador Network about her early childhood experiences growing up in East Germany:

It wasn't all trying, though. Everyone had a job, school lunches were free, after-school care was free, people were generally happy, necessities were extremely cheap, and there was more community spirit than there is nowadays. In those times, there were no Joneses to keep up with.

Rigidly communist East Germany hardly sounded like "chaos." So what is the progressive left's game in the Era of Trump?

First, at present, leftists want to create a state of political cultural chaos in the U.S. for a specific reason. They need chaos as a smokescreen to defend their current leaders — that is to say, Obama, Hillary & Co. — from prosecution. Make no mistake: Obama, Hillary, and their cohorts committed some serious crimes of an unprecedented nature

I have no idea what you are talking about. Are you directing your post to me, because if you are you are way out of line.

“I’m still standing, along with millions of my armed brothers and sisters.”

Yes, we are. Because we still have a second amendment.

“BTW, I live in the Deep South and lately have been astonished to learn that many who I thought were hard core conservatives are not conservative at all.”

Conservative is a fairly vague term when speaking of political beliefs. If we take it to mean believing in the constitution as originally intended and holding true freedom as the goal to be sought then I would say that only a tiny, tiny, tiny percentage truly believe in that sort of “conservatism”. Many who call themselves conservative are socialists at heart but don’t even seem to know it.

I have heard some who call themselves conservative make such statements as the following, “Now, I’m about as conservative as anybody you will ever meet but I think the federal government ought to furnish FREE HEALTH CARE for everybody.”
To me that is in a class with saying, “Now I’m as honest a man as you will ever meet but I have to go now, I need to go and steal a few things that I can sell to get some money.”

They’ll never live through the “chaos” stage.

it’s already started and I dont see conservatives stepping up.

The ideas in the Constitution, and God's Truth, are eminently rational. Human emotions undercut them.

There are, or were, plenty of men on this site who are perfectly OK with abortion, if their daughter were to be raped. Very, very few humans have the true courage of their "convictions." Expediency makes cowards of most people.
