The left uses chaos to disrupt a unified, patriotic nation so it can culminate into a violent overthrow of the existing system. The resulting turmoil leads the people to crave “order” and the socialists stand ready to deliver it by wiping away the old system that caused the current chaos with a new system promising utopia.
Of course, once the socialists have control, all the support for freedoms and various groups ends and those in charge decide what is allowed and what is not and they may never be questioned.
Excellent takedown of the Left by Dennis Prager, a true Patriot.
David Horowitz who came from the left said the issue is never the issue it is always about the revolution. In other words all the issues relate to taking power and ultimately absolute power which relates to the totalitarian core of leftism. Those of us on the right in politics are also interested in power but often it is to prevent the nightmares the left would inflict on us. Actually improving society is another reason but that is often beyond politics from the perspective of the right. Just get government out of the way.
Does anyone understand just what the climate alarmists want? I still do not know. They protest and shriek all the time but what exactly do they want? Do they want cars, planes, trucks, trains, ships, banned?
Excellent article by Dennis Prager, thanks for posting it.
Good! Your hate has made you powerful. Now, fulfill your destiny and take your father's place at my side! - Emperor Palpatine- return of the jedi.
It all started out when an attractive Australian man and Australian woman met in Greece. He (Riley) was a 30 year old offshore oil rig worker who saved some money and bought a 37' sailing yacht. She (Elena) was a young 19 year old club singer and guitar player.
They fell in love, and began sailing the world. They didn't have much money, and he had to go back to the oil rigs at one point. She started making YouTube videos, which were seen by only a few thousand people.
Fast forward 5 years, and they now have 1.2 million subscribers, a host of paying patrons, sponsorships, clothing lines, product lines, merchandising lines, online books, T-shits, and a 1 million dollar French built Outremer catamaran yacht. They also have a 1 year old son (but they never married, and are still boyfriend and girlfriend).
The videos were very entertaining, but you could tell they are but a shadow of the original concept. Their prime motivation these days seems to be more viewers, more patrons, and more money. I don't know what they actually make per year, but it is estimated to be a LOT of money.
They have no religious faith, and are into the typical millennial garbage of weird foods, essential oils, and "saving the planet." But they were competent sailors and seem like genuinely nice people.
In November, in an act of completely bad judgement, they decided to hook themselves to the Greta train. Greta could not "fly" from the U.S. back to Europe to join some Climate Change wacko conference in Spain. Flying is EVIL! So her PR team went looking, and hooked up with Riley and Elena. They sailed her back to Europe (with the help of a very experienced sailor who was flown to the U.S. to help!) Irony!

After this incident, I have lost interest in them. The Left ruins everything.
Originally, leftism was coherent. Das Kapital claimed that communism would make the workers’ lives much better in a material way. The theoretical reasons why communism achieves that are totally false and make no sense. But the typical leftist believed that was what they were trying to bring about. It may actually be more accurate to say leftism is opposed to materially improving the workers’ lives today.
Since socialism spectacularly fails to achieve its original objectives where ever it’s tried, the leftists have to redefine leftism to be about something else, which seems to be dismantling things, as Prager notes.
For a book about leftism, I suggest 1984.
2 societies come to mind, both in the Southern hemisphehre. S Africa and Venezuela. Both were stable, wealthy nations with relatively low crime and little discernible corruption. In both cases liberalism gained popularity as the populations believed themselves immune from catastrophe. Stability and well being proved themselves fleeting conditions as anger and lust for power destroyed these two beautiful countries. It will be a long, hard road back for both.
When they are out of power they show us what they will be like when they are in power.

I finally found something to show FREEPERS what I mean.
See if the first 10 seconds of this Killjoys clip of the arch-villain “The Lady” doesn’t remind you of this little snot Greta:
