The Lies Liberals Need to Tell Themselves

Victimhood is a currency on the left. In fact, it’s THE currency on the left, better than Bitcoin. The more you can claim for yourself the higher esteem you are held in among the intelligencia and elitists who seek to control the people of this country. That’s why there is this scramble, this desperate fight, even by wealthy leftists to claim they’re somehow a put-upon victim.

The latest piece of performance art in the quest for the ultimate status on the left comes from Jonathan Capehart of the Washington Post.

Capehart has an estimated net worth between $1 and $5 million, which isn’t bad for someone who doesn’t produce anything tangible or break a sweat throughout the course of the workday, unless the air conditioning breaks down. Still, he’s a victim. In a column entitled, “Being Black in America is Exhausting,” Capehart plants his flag firmly on victim mountain because of things that didn’t happen to him.

Honestly, the biggest obstacle he lists among a hypothetical list of grievances is he hasn’t driven across the country because of his skin color. He writes that when he thinks about “buying a car, my interior color selection will hue toward tan. The better for the police to see inside in case I get stopped for driving a nice car or whatever, which is why my dream of driving across country will remain a dream.”

I just realized I haven’t mentioned that Capehart is black. He’s also gay, but that’s not from where he’s claiming martyrdom at the moment, and both of those characteristics are irrelevant to what type of person he is. But it’s what he would like himself wrapped in for these purposes.

“There is no one way to be Black in America,” he writes, “but there is one way we live while Black in America. No matter our gender, age or socioeconomic status, we are viewed as threats. As a result, we live under siege.”

He then complies an inane list of things he wants readers to believe he can’t do because of his skin color – admiring a nice house or looking closely at a nice car – but he never cites any actual examples of him doing those things and it going sideways. Realistically, if he’s to be believed (and I don’t believe him), any “restrictions” placed on him are placed on him by him.

Liberals have convinced themselves that this is a horribly, wildly racist country; that police are racists who’d like nothing more than being able to kill a black man each and every shift. They can’t back up their claim with reality, so they construct a different one where people starting fights with cops are the victims. Where actual numbers are ignored while the rarity is presented as the norm. Through repetition, the lie births a narrative and the narrative constructs an alternate reality.

The truth is there for all to see, even in the Washington Post itself. It’s searchable, easy to find, and blows every left-wing narrative about race and policing straight to hell.

Even individual cases held out as racism can be debunked quickly, if you pull your head out of the liberal narrative for a minute. George Floyd was murdered, Tony Timpa might as well not have existed. Tamir Rice was a tragedy, Peyton Ham is a yawn. For each case the leftist media hypes there is another case just like it that they don’t, all because of skin color.

Capehart quotes a friend who felt the need to apologize to him for the sin of not understanding “the contours of our pain.” This person, obviously a fellow leftist, wrote, “I’m sorry you wake up every morning to a world that doesn’t appreciate you, doesn’t give you the same rights as your white counterparts, and expects you to give joy and humor just because you are allowed to live.”

Anyone familiar with Capehart’s work, from his writings to his television show and commentary on MSNBC, would never expect him to give joy or humor; leftists are incapable of those things.

Fact is, if you look at Capehart’s work, crying racism is damn near all he’s got. If you listen to Democrats in the last decade, crying racism is all they have. That’s all MSNBC and CNN do anymore. I don’t understand white liberals who crave to be demonized, or every other liberal who wants to be told they’re victims. Then again, I’ve never been into S&M, so what do I know?

But one thing I do know is liberals need to believe in lies, for both the sake of their agenda and their sanity. Without them, all the left has is failed policies and a history of being perpetrators of the things they claim victimhood over. I hope Jonathan takes that road trip he says he can’t. Maybe if he actually meets America his eyes will be opened, at least a little. Doubtful, though, since he likely knows the truth. But in the liberal media, you amass millions of dollars in net worth by actually telling it.

What you MUST believe to be a good Democrat…..

This list is by no means complete, but it is a good start to explain what some people have to believe in order to support a particular political party. Most especially, it is what you have to believe to vote for that party, in any office…

1. You might be a Democrat...

2. If you believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding…

3. If you believe that the same teacher who can’t teach 4th graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same 4th graders about sex…

4. If you believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than US nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese communists…

5. If you believe that there was no art before federal funding…

6. If you believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented, changes in the earth’s climate, and more affected by Yuppies driving SUVs…

13. If you believe that the NRA is bad, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution…

14. If you believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high…

15. If you believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, General Robert E. Lee or Thomas Edison…

17. If you believe Hillary Clinton is really a lady…

18. If you believe that the only reason socialism hasn’t worked anywhere it’s been tried, is because the right people haven’t been in charge…

19. If you believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar and sex offender belongs in the White House…

20. If you believe that homosexual parades displaying drag, transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal…

21. If you believe that illegal Democratic Party funding by the Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States…

22. IF You believe that anyone wanting to keep the products of their labor is selfish, though, it is not selfish to take other people’s money away from them to pay for the programs that you want to fund.

23. IF You believe that the constitution is a living document that casts both an umbra and a penumbra.

24. IF You believe that you can make our co country stronger by breaking up its most successful corporations.

25. IF You believe that the death penalty is wrong but think that killing unborn children is merely a “choice”.

26. IF You are sure the reason why socialism did not work in the Soviet Union was because they did not start out with enough wealth. Further, you believe that the US has enough wealth to support socialism.

27. IF You believe that discouraging wealth building and job creation through the means of a graduated income tax is “progressive”.

28. IF At every opportunity you want to give men fish instead of teaching them to fish for themselves.

29. IF You believe that the phrase “it couldn’t happen here” is enough to insure tyranny does not take root in the United States.

30. IF You believe that the bad consequences of peoples’ life decisions should be born by all of society, especially the rich.

31. IF You believed Hillary about the “Vast Right Wing Conspiracy” ... and that it made Bill commit adultery in the Oval Office and use foreign objects to have sex with “that woman”.

32. IF You believe that punishing criminals of color for their violent crimes is racist.

33. IF You somehow believe that the major media in this country does not have a liberal bent.

34. IF You have to believe at least 35% of what comes out of Al Gore’s mouth.

38. IF You must accept dead citizens voting in an election, so long as they do not cross party lines.

40. IF You not-so-secretly wish that people never become successful, insuring that their continued dependence on the welfare state keeps them voting the Democrat party line.

41. IF You believe that the bill of rights should act to limit the powers of government, except that the 2nd, 9th and 10th amendments have absolutely no meaning nor any power. Further, you ignore any part of the constitution that will slow down your form of creeping socialism.

42. IF That to give people a tax cut is to “spend” their money. About 111 times in the course of the three presidential debates, Gore said that “Under Gov. Bush’s tax cut proposal, he would spend more money on tax cuts for the wealthiest 1 percent than all of the new spending that he proposes for education, health care, prescription drugs and national defense all combined.”

43. IF People who believe that all of their money belongs to the government, except that portion that the governing class decides to “spend” on tax cuts, should vote for Gore. So, too, should those who believe that if the government undertakes huge new spending programs, taxes will not increase.

44. IF That you can trust a man who swears his abiding passion is to “fight” for the little guy even though, in 1997, out of an income of $197,729, Gore donated only $353 to charity, and who, in 2000, had to be publicly shamed before having the toilet and sink in his tenant’s house repaired.

45. IF YOU BELIEVE That there is any such thing as a “lock box” in American political life — presupposing that one administration and/or one congress can bind another.

46. If you believe That pharmaceutical companies must be strong-armed to forego profits in the name of lower prices for seniors, and that you can rely on the good faith of a man who casually asserts that “the big drug companies” are now “spending more money on advertising and promotion than they are on research and development.” Actually, a Kaiser Family Foundation study released in July reveals that the drug companies spent between $5.8 and $8.3 billion for advertising in 1998, versus $21 billion for research and development.

47. If you believe That what this world needs, in the words of Al Gore’s environmental manifesto “Earth in the Balance,” is “to establish a coordinated global program to accomplish the strategic goal of completely eliminating the internal combustion engine over, say, a 25 year period.”

48. If you believe That it is possible to commit American troops to every trouble spot around the world while simultaneously starving the military for funds.

49. If you believe That the creation of new federal programs to provide universal preschool, expand Medicare, provide prescription drugs to all of America’s elderly (Bush proposes to cover only the poor), provide universal health coverage for children, fund Technology for Tomorrow Challenge and scores of other proposed initiatives will neither increase the size of the federal government nor eat up the surplus.

50. If you believe That a man who routinely breaks even the rules of a debate format should be trusted when he assures us that throughout the campaign of 1996, he engaged in no illegal fund raising.

51. If you believe That President Clinton’s policies, standing alone, have led to “instead of the biggest deficits in history, we now have the biggest surpluses. ... Instead of quadrupling our national debt, we’ve seen the creation of 19 million new jobs. Instead of a deep recession and high unemployment, America now has our strongest economy in the history of the United States.”

52. If you believe Until a Republican Congress arm-wrestled him into accepting a balanced budget, President Clinton’s policies would have created deficits into the indefinite future. As to the recession of 1990/1991, it was quite mild (not, as Gore always says, “the double dip recession,” whatever that is, and the “worst recession since the Great Depression”). The recovery had begun before Clinton/Gore took office in January 1992.

53. If you believe That, once elected, N.E.A. Al would actually implement his proposal for testing new teachers.

54. If you believe That affirmative action does not mean quotas, merely attempts to provide opportunity where it has been lacking.

55. If you believe That Al and Tipper Gore have been consistent critics of Hollywood and the rock music industry, as the vice president boasted during the third debate. In fact, Gore dragged his wife to Hollywood in 1988 — the year he invented the Willie Horton issue, no he really did — and forced her to grovel before record company executives promising to cease her campaign for music ratings. He was running for president and wanted the industry’s financial support.

56. If you believe That Bill Clinton was “one of our greatest presidents.”

If you believe You’re not sophisticated enough to realize that “liberty” and “socialism” are mutually exclusive concepts.

58.IF You believe that Europe (even with its faulty currency, high unemployment, and economic stifling tax rates) is an example if the successful socialism, but ignore China, India, and the former USSR which account for almost 1/2 of the earth’s population.

59. If You support “choice”, as long as it has nothing to do with where your kids go to school, owning a firearm, deciding where your retirement money goes, or what doctor you go to see.

60. If You believe that every vote counts, except those from Republican dominated counties and from the military.

61. If You believe that children are expensive, but no matter how many children poor people choose to produce the poor are always victims of society and not their own bad choices.

62. If You believe in the communist theory of “redistribution of wealth”, but only if the government redistributes it.

63. If You don’t give much to charity, after all, why should you have to give up necessities like cable TV, cell phones, electronic gadgets, eating out, and air conditioning when there are people who have even more than you do?

64. If You believe the Bill of Rights actually has an amendment declaring the “right to privacy”.

65. If You believe that Social Security is not a risky pyramid scheme.

66.IF You believe oppression comes from business and prosperity comes from government.

67. If You believe that John Ashcroft is a horrible choice for a federal position because he is a religious man, but Joe LIEberman was a great choice for a federal position because he is a religious man.

68. If You don’t understand the basics of “supply and demand”.

69. If You believe that conservatives are racist, but quotas, social promotion, lower expectations, and set asides aren’t.

76. If You believe that the Bill Of Rights says “There is a separation of church and state” but not the actual line: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or PROHIBITING THE FREE EXERCISE THEREOF”.

77. If You believe that Santa decorations should be banned from public schools at Christmas due to religious issues, but don’t believe witch decorations should be banned from public schools at Halloween even though Wicca is a federally recognized religion.

78. Ifyou believe There was no art before federal funding.

79.IF You believe that drilling a piece of the enormous Alaskan preserve will be horrible for the environment, but hauling energy inefficient oil tankers from the Middle East (halfway across the planet) won’t have any negative impacts on the environment.

80. If You believe that in a free society doctors should be servants of the state.

81. If You believe that anyone who agrees with you is open minded and believe that anyone who disagrees with you is closed minded.

82. If You believe that the only reason communism hasn’t worked is because the right people haven’t been in charge yet.

You think sexual harassment is rampant, date rape pervasive, domestic violence common and Paula Jones is lying. You hate Hillary jokes.

You pale at the execution of child killers, but defend the killing of unborn children as an expression of choice. You think trees have feelings, animals can conceptualize and the fetus is a blob of protoplasm.

You are convinced that Frank Capra films and Norman Rockwell paintings are lies and distortions but “Platoon,” “Dances with Wolves” and “Thelma and Louise” are realistic.

You thought Walt Disney was saccharine sweet and terminally cutesy-pie - until it made “Pocahontas.”

You think a moment of silent prayer at the beginning of the school day constitutes government indoctrination and an intrusion on parental authority, while sex education, condom distribution and multiculturalism are values-neutral.

You agonize over threats to the natural environment (acid rain, toxic waste) but are oblivious to threats to the social environment (pornography, promiscuity, and family dissolution).

You want to legalize cocaine and outlaw handguns. You think cops are pigs and criminals are products of their environment. You believe the National Rifle Association helps criminals while the American Civil Liberties Union protects the innocent.

You think Rush Limbaugh is responsible for the Oklahoma City bombing but are outraged by suggestions that Ted Kaczynski (the suspected Unabomber) and Al Gore have anything in common.
Jesse Jackson makes sense to you. Barbra Streisand makes even more sense.

You think Herblock cartoons are funny and Janet Reno is totally hot.

You believe corporate profits are obscene but government spending is too low and the American people are undertaxed.

You think deficits are caused by tax loopholes.

You think marriage is obsolete - except for homosexuals.

You believe homosexuality is genetically determined, but fascism and spouse abuse aren’t.

You think AIDS is spread by insufficient funding.

You considers the Catholic bishops noble and idealistic when they oppose capital punishment and welfare cuts but dangerous fanatics trying to legislate their theology when they defend the right to life.

You are convinced that proponents of welfare reform hate the poor and opponents of affirmative action hate minorities, but AIDS activists who bash the pope and People for the American Way types who go psycho over Protestant “fundamentalists” are guardians of democracy.

You attribute every minority problem to entrenched, institutional racism and the legacies of slavery and segregation.

You think the black middle class is a myth created by Newt Gingrich.

You don’t understand all of the whining about affirmative action and are more than willing to sacrifice someone else’s employment or education opportunity to assuage your guilt.

You marched against American involvement in Vietnam, thought the Gulf war was unnecessary but believe 25,000 U.S. troops in Bosnia are vital to our national interests.

You see no correlation between welfare and the rise of illegitimacy, judicial leniency and surging crime rates, or addiction and an entertainment industry that glorifies drug abuse. But you believe Richard Nixon is responsible for everything horrible that’s happened in the past quarter-century.

You think those child-abusing, religious fanatics at Waco had it coming but the illegal immigrants roughed up by California deputies —after leading them on a high-speed chase are the victims of the decade.

Liberals can be neatly pigeon-holed into the following four categories:

The Congenitally Stupid

The congenitally stupid segment of society are naturally drawn to liberalism. Liberalism is a philosophy that does not require, and in fact discourages, reasoned thought. Those who are incapable of reaching logical conclusions or find the simple relationship between cause and effect beyond their grasp are natural constituents of liberalism. Successful recruiting of the congenitally stupid by the liberals is often accomplished by uttering nothing more than a couple of inane platitudes.

The Uninformed

The uninformed are for the most part the mentally lazy and the unconcerned. These are also natural recruits to liberalism as they can be so easily lead. They are the perfect sheep who the liberals only need to appeal to on an emotional level. The uninformed can easily be drawn to a philosophy that discourages the effort of logical thought.

The Misinformed

The largest group of liberals is the misinformed. They are for the most part motivated and intelligent enough to be aware of their surroundings and to have a rudimentary grasp of the some of the issues confronting society. Unfortunately they completely lack the intellectual integrity to logically investigate their own belief system. They are the preferred ovine breed of leaders like Hitler and Stalin.

The Truly Evil

The truly evil segment of liberals are those who completely understand the destructiveness of liberalism but continue to further its agenda. There is no fate too vile for this segment of society. Spending the rest of their lives in one of their philosophy’s most ringing successes, N. Korea for example, would be just reward for those liberals who truly know what they do.

Jessie Jackson has added former Chicago democratic congressman Mel Reynolds
to the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition’s payroll.Reynolds was among the 176
criminals excused in President Clinton’s last-minute forgiveness spree.
Reynolds received a commutation of his six-and- a-half-year federal sentence
for 15 convictions of wire fraud, bank fraud & lies to the Federal Election
Commission. He is more notorious; however, for concurrently serving five
years for sleeping with an underage campaign volunteer.

This is a first in American politics: An ex-congressman who had sex with a
subordinate won clemency from a president who had sex with a subordinate,
then was hired by a clergyman who had sex with a subordinate.

His new job?Youth counselor.

Is this a great country or what?

THREE KINDS OF LIBERALS DEFINED
There are, of course, three major types of liberals, the loser/dependants, the touchy/feelies, and the scammers.

The loser/dependants are the objects of the liberal’s agenda, and strangely, it is their own total lack of an agenda that makes them what they are. These are people that can not or will not compete in the capitalistic society. Unlike the other two groups, who are liberal by genetic makeup, these unfortunates are simply the result of brainwashing by the other two liberal groups. For the most part, they have simply been led to believe that they cannot make it on their own, and that they must be cared for, ie, be dependant upon others in order to survive. Almost all of them are capable of living on their own, but their co-dependant touchy/feely benefactors and the greedy scammers work hard to keep that from happening, by keeping the handicap system in place.

This system supports the touchy/feely group’s need to feel good about taking care of somebody, and the scammers who make an economic profit by leading the agenda. The irony of this situation is that after so many years of being victims of racial prejudice, many of these folks now after pretty much having that yoke removed, are victims of the welfare system. I have to wonder if the civil rights movement had proceeded as it did, without the welfare program, which has discouraged independence, would we now have any of the problems we face in the inner cities? Can anyone imagine what kind of country we would have if we had done away with racial prejudice without having done away with the fierce independent nature that had characterized this nation’s poor people up until the last 30 or 40 years?

The most active group are the touchy/feelies, sometimes called bleeding hearts. I like to call them herd people, because of their aversion to independence and fear of people who are independent. Many loser/dependant types share some of the same tendencies with touchy/feelies. The touchy/feelys are the ones who wear those silly little curly ribbons proclaiming that they love everyone and care for everyone. These are primarily right brained people who neither know nor care about logic, and are more concerned about what feels good than about reality. Some manage to get educations and hold down fairly good jobs, but those that do are often ashamed of their success. Many of the liberals posting here on usenet are touchy/feelies, although the line between touchy/feelies and loser/dependants is very fine, and most touchy/feelies ride that line lacking the logical common sense to be really successful, except in those areas that require a genetic talent rather than a learned skill, hence, the abundance of touchy/feely liberals in the entertainment industry.Since touchy/feelies, in addition to needing to take care of people, are deathly afraid of competition, (probably with good cause) many have opted for the education system, where most of the competition has been eliminated, either as teachers or as perpetual students.

The scammers are not really liberals at all, but big time crooked capitalists in liberals clothing. They are the rich liberal politicians and other liberal leaders who have and continue to do very well in the conservative capitalistic economy by pretending to be liberal and leading the liberal agenda. It is ironic that leading the liberal agenda is so lucrative, and even more ironic that the other two groups cannot see these pseudo liberals for what they are, but these other types, being co dependant, are extremely adept at seeing only what they choose to see, and often view the scammers as heroes, even though they are filthy rich and liberals hate the filthy rich. The scammer people are the true predators of the liberal world, making an extremely good living off the misfortune of the loser/dependants, and making sure that these folks don’t become independent.

There is an additional small group of liberals I call the “old hippies.” These people don’t quite fit the “touchy/feely” group because of their status as total losers, but they also don’t fit the loser/dependant group because of their agenda, which is generally something between socialism and communism. Of course, this group includes all the socialists and communists as well, which in this country, at least are nothing more than “old hippies”. The group is too small to be mentioned were it not for the fact that there are several notorious “old hippies” who post on these newsgroups. I gave some thought to mentioning some names as examples of each group, but after reading this post, I decided against it if for no other reason, it simply isn’t necessary. We all know who I’ve been talking about. To respond in a logical manner to your illogical posting is not logical, but it is great fun to add to your obvious confusion. -John Parker
