Democrats Really Do Hate America
Townhall ^ | Mar 16, 2023 | Derek Hunter

Posted on 03/16/2023 7:05:24 AM PDT by george76

Honestly, if you’d told me just a few years ago that the Democrat Party would become a party that literally hates the United States…well, I probably would have believed you because they do and have for a very long time. However, if you’d also told me they would proudly proclaim that hatred with regularity, that entire cable networks would be dedicated to preaching that hatred, you probably would’ve lost me there. Not anymore.

I would not have believed any political organization would proudly proclaim they despise that which they seek to lead, but that’s where we find ourselves now. There are countless examples of this, everywhere you look. Even the President of the United States calls half the country monsters and transphobes simply because we don’t think children should be subjected to sexualization of any kind, let alone having an adult grind their crotch in their face, or have their body butchered in the name of some weird “progress.”

There are literally hundreds of examples on a weekly basis of some leftist on cable news smearing everyone and the country and “fundamentally this” or “that to the core.” Hell, Joy Reid makes a living simply burping out “this person is a racist” or “that thing is racist.” She’s so oppressed she’s paid millions of dollars per year to chase away the audience from the show before hers. If merit mattered, Joy would be homeless. But she has her job for different reasons, ability be damned.

Then we have this piece from the New York Times, it really boils everything the left is now down to its essence. Democrats are only close to honest when dealing with other Democrats, and the Times is the ultimate choir-preacher.

It’s entitled, “Can We Put an End to America’s Most Dangerous Myth?” Is it about the idea that country was founded on and for racism? No, the Times makes too much money off that one.

So, what is this “myth”? “Our most toxic myth is our “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” individualism,” the piece contends.

...

Yes, that’s right, individuality is “toxic.” The idea that Americans are independent, able to live within their means and stand on their own is a huge problem…says the Communist Manifesto, er, this column.

“So, yes, some independence is worth honoring,” the author allows. “But other strains are not as positive. For instance, being required to be ‘independent’ when we are ill and without adequate health insurance coverage is not to be recommended. Neither is having to take care of our children entirely on our own, in the silo of our immediate family, without a state-supported nursery in sight. And going into debt for simply covering the cost of our own or our children’s college education is far from salutary.”

Socialism, essentially, is what she’s pushing for here. Never mind looking at why some many of those “problems” exist (Democrat policies), just know that you shouldn’t have to deal with them because…progressive, or something.

What the column is complaining about isn’t individuality, really, it’s responsibility. That your actions have consequences and you should maybe consider them when making choices. No, Democrats would rather absolve you of the consequences for your actions – a political priest – as long as you obey them. They’ll give you just enough to get by, bless away your mistakes, and never look back at the destruction in their wake.

Meanwhile, people will be so dependent on government for their existence, and desperate for more absolution, that a blind loyalty will be created in the voting booth. Like a junkie always in need of another hit, people hooked on the concept of no personal responsibility are always in need of being told it’s not their fault, especially when it is.

The conclusion of the piece reads, “Dependence is, if you think of it, a form of connection and social cohesion. It brings us closer to others, which at this moment in America might be the thing we need most.” That’s exactly the opposite of reality, of what we need. Unless, of course, your goal isn’t to empower people or get out of their way so they can make their lives better, but rather to make people serfs; junkies who will do your electoral bidding if you just give them another hit. I’m not saying that’s what Democrats want to do, but it’s what Democrats want to do…

If he only came around to this conclusion within the last few years Mr Hunter hasn’t been paying much attention. The left has been screaming their hate for this country for decades.

We won’t be able to talk the Left out of their deadly position.
They see us as jackbooted thugs because we are against sexual depravity.
We see them as jackbooted thugs for insisting on public sexual deviancy and its propagation to children. Meanwhile globalists want to rule us all with an iron fist. I don’t see how this ends without an actual fight.

Many liberals are unregenerated sinners (as opposed to regenerated sinners saved by grace), whose hearts are desperately wicked, plott8ng evil continually, devising ways to crush those who elong to christ and who hold morality in esteem. (That is not to say that all liberals are unsaved, but many are, as they prefer darkness to the light, lies over truth, and who espouse truly Evil agendas like a option and homosexuality which is diametrically opposed to God and his word. (Note, even Christians can fall Into sins like homosexuality, and can be deceived somewhat to think its OK, although the Holy Spirit Will Always cause their consciences to know that what they are doing is sinful, and an abomination)

Not just the Rats, I’m afraid. There are some on the right who cheer the demise of the “degenerate West” (a phrase taken straight from the CCP) and want a civil war in America because they’re convinced their brand of conservatism will win and they’ll be king/queen of the ashes.

Well, Michael Savage did say liberalism is a mental disorder.

I’d say it’s time for free helicopter rides, just like Pinochet.

Look back at the Viet Nam war era. John Hanoi Kerry hated the US and veterans and still hates veterans. With all the riots and distraction the hate is obvious. Antifa hates the USA and our people. Jane Fonda hates and wants US killed. Our current deep state cabal hates the American Military. They hate our Constitution and constantly try mutilate it. Christianity is in the cross hairs of hate.

In the dominion of the Antichrist who will be higher than the faggots and genderqueer? But it’s gonna be a short and horrific 7 years to be “winning” and then it will only get worse.

That is an absolute fact. I personally have witnessed liberals who have exuded a visceral repulsion at even images and symbols of our founders, Revolutionary War era flags, etc. I had a copy of the Declaration of Independence hanging on the wall in my office literally sneered at, numerous times (especially by my commie boss). Those may seem like trivial examples, but they are very telling nonetheless.

Democrat crackers are the only known tribe of homo sapiens that actually hate themselves more than anything else on the planet. Turd roller democrats are born severely brain damaged.

Another trivial example - a person I know disliked the Arizona Memorial because it “glorified war”.

True, but they sure do stay on the offense and change things for the worse because the GOP apparently doesn't mind as long as they are kept busy by lobbyists wining and dining them.

They are not just enemies of Americans, but of the human race.
