Charlottesville: Fueling Race Riots One of the Left’s Cleverest Tactics  
Intellectual Conservative ^ | August 14, 2017 | Rachel Alexander

Posted on 08/14/2017 8:53:22 AM PDT by az4vlad


The left has figured out several methods that successfully work to divide the left and the right. One of their cleverest ways is stirring up race wars, because it has the extra benefit of making the right look bad. The playbook goes like this: Spread the word nonstop that Democrats help minorities and Republicans are racist (never mind that it was mostly Democrats in Congress who opposed ending segregation —  people don’t pay close attention to history).

Once this false mantra has been established, label a broad range of normal behavior by conservatives as racist (it doesn’t matter if some of those conservatives are minorities themselves, like black and Hispanic police officers, contradictions don’t matter). Lump all that behavior in with that of the small number of real racists and refer to it as conservative or right wing (never mind that many racists are on the left, just gloss over that). Even better, create a new term that clearly refers to white supremacists, alt-right, and lump in mainstream conservatives. This tactic has allowed the left to write off one of the most popular conservative publications in the country, Breitbart, as racist. Since no one wants to be considered racist, it scares people away from being associated with conservatism.

At the same time, the left aggressively promotes minorities over whites throughout all aspects of society in order to create resentment from poor, less educated whites. They use the most inflammatory language possible and push for the most radical left-wing activists in this area to give speeches and lead rallies. Instead of encouraging a harmonization of race relations, the left encourages voices who want radical policies implemented like race reparations and excluding whites from aspects of society.

The left goes so far as to infiltrate white supremacist organizations and convince them they need to engage in “civil disobedience” to defend things the left has successfully been able to label as racist positions taken by conservatives (even if they’re really not). They take advantage of their poverty and lesser levels of education in order to convince them that these are the most crucial issues facing them today. The left secretly attends white supremacist meetings and posts anonymously on white supremacy websites in order to accomplish this.

This is exactly how the rioting in Charlottesville went down last week. The left stirred up a handful of mainly lower educated people, some who are racist, to engage in threatening protests over the Confederate statue of Robert E. Lee being removed. They were able to accomplish this because the left has been secretly promoting a fanatical obsession with the South among lesser educated, white males in the South in recent years. What used to be a passing interest in Southern history has been transformed into an almost nationalistic worship of its symbols that may have some direct or indirect association with slavery. The left also hyped up the association among radical black activists to further incense the situation. This had the successful result of broadly (and unfairly) tying white males to racism.

Some suggest the overhyping may have contributed to the tragic death of one person at the protest, with several more seriously injured. A man who appears to be part of the protest drove his car into a group of AntiFa counter-protesters (far leftists who are also known for violence), killing a woman. When events like this happen, it gives the left even more support for their argument that people on the right are really bad racists. If it comes out later that the driver, James Alex Fields, Jr. was a Democrat, apolitical or just mentally ill, it won’t matter, the left has already convinced much of society that reprehensible racists are on the right. Perhaps tellingly, an article in The New York Times focusing on Fields has plenty of details about him but nothing about his political views.

The left could have brought race relations to the most amicable level yet under President Obama. As the first black president, Obama could have used his bully pulpit to show that racism has greatly decreased. Instead, he made things worse with his remarks asserting racism where it likely hadn’t occurred, such as encounters with law enforcement. This helped bring about the creation of Black Lives Matter. Increasing levels of racism doesn’t make any sense, considering people are more aware of the wrongness of racism today than ever.

The reason the left perpetuates racial divisions is because it helps them with votes and support. They have to make up a false mantra in order to keep people voting Democrat, otherwise people would desert the Democrats’ failing policies. As long as blacks think Republicans are racist, of course that voting bloc is going to vote Democrat. It also helps the wealthy elites. Left-wing billionaire George Soros and Media Matters founder David Brock have amassed a huge amount of power riling up activists on the left. They stand to lose a lot of money and power if the little people underneath them are not perpetually outraged.

The truth is, there weren’t Trump signs at the protest. This wasn’t a peaceful Trump rally full of conservatives. These protesters were armed and wearing riot equipment. They expected to engage in violence. Don’t let the left get away with the misinformation that these were conservatives. Violence at protests is mostly committed by the left, which is paid to riot by Soros-funded organizations. In contrast, conservatives vehemently oppose violent protests. Stop using the left’s clever, misleading phrase alt-right to describe these violent protesters.

You don’t have to be terribly clever when you monopolize the information, entertainment and education industries. And the courts.

Anyone who conflates Trump with this rally is an evil alt-left devil hiding behind a serious demeanor. The left is trying to associate this rally with Trump. Make sure it does not happen.

I wonder if this is how CW2 starts. They purposely told the cops to stand down in a deliberate attempt to incite violence then they blame the right and Trump and exacerbate it further and further.

It’s far more insidious.
They intend to use this event as a catalyst to remove all Confederate monuments.
When they are done with that they will move on to some other aspect of American history.
Anyone resisting the erasure of history will be tarred as a racist white supremacist.
Everyone who is not behind Antifa, BLM and the rest must be racists, bigots, sexists, homophobes, Islamophobes, etc.
No defense of American history, values, culture or way of life will be tolerated.

The never ending leftist poop storm.

It’s getting tiresome and we are running out of ways and places where we can get a brief respite from it.

It was definitely a set-up.
They brought the two groups together in a confined space and then scurried away.
They instigated the confrontation.

Tactics are a part of strategy.

The Democrat strategy is to loot the public treasuries.

These tactics are used to accomplish that strategy.

This has nothing to do with race.

This is all about money and Democrat greed.

If they remove everything connected with the South and the Confederacy, doesn’t that remove slavery from our past also? After all slavery only existed because of the evil Southerners. If the South never existed, neither did slavery. Problem solved.

But you kind of have to be an idiot when you take a confrontation between two groups of mostly white people (both the driver and the lone fatality in the incident with the car driving into the crowd were white) and make it into a “race riot.” LOL.

The left would have you believe this Charlottesville killer is innocent because he's a victim of being black. There are a lot more white victims of black violence and until they start to acknowledge and address that, they can all shut the hell up.

Doug McKelway: “We are now beginning to hear criticism bubble up on all sides of this event about the initial slow response by the police. When I got out of my car yesterday in Charlottesville about 10:30 in the morning you knew this was a bad scene and bad things were going to be happening because people were congregating at Lee Park and Emancipation Park wearing helmets, body armor, carrying big heavy sticks. Nobody was intent on peace here from either side. People were intent on causing havoc and causing damage. And even as wounded were being brought out of the park police were sitting idly by. I was standing off a cordoned off area where the police had set up as a staging area, the state police, and they said you can come in here this is a safe area. But when the tear gas started to fly, thrown by protesters, the police themselves began to evacuate then. I asked the guy who was in charge, “Where you going?” He said, “We’re leaving. It’s too dangerous.” They had a chance to nip this thing in the bud and they chose not to.” http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3576878/posts

There seems to be a vile collusion between liberal mayors and the violent forces, who hate Trump, by prohibiting their police from protecting Trump supporters from BLMers, Antifa and other hired left wing thugs

This collusion appeared to be very evident at Charlottesville this past weekend.

Remember the riots in San Jose when Trump came to speak? The San Jose cops under orders from their liberal mayor let Trump supporters be harassed, attacked and chased by hired thugs.

Then, the first UC Berkeley riots last year were a replication of the San Jose attacks on Trump supporters. The cops were under orders from the mayor to let the Antifa thugs run wild to harm, harass and chase our people away.

The mayor of Charlottesville, apparently attended UC Berkeley. So, he would have been very familiar with how to set up riots like this by controlling his police like the Berkeley mayor did!

I posted shortly after the Berkeley riots had started, “That my wife had asked during the early so called tv news why the cops just stood by watched our people being attack?”

I told her, that it was apparent the cops had orders not to protect our people.

It is real simple. In any city with a police force, the mayor and maybe the city council tell their police chief what his/her cops can and cannot do in these situations.

So the individual cops with their mortgages, kids in braces and maxed out credit cards just stand by when our people are attacked without any police protection.

Remember, when the mayors shut down their cops at Chicago and later, in other cities did nothing when the anti Trump protesters tried to shut Trump down in his appearances in 2016!

In the above riots/near riots, the mayors and their mediots blamed Trump and his voters, never the criminal rioters and paid Antifa Thugs!

Wake up. It already happened.

Now President Trump will cow tow to the Left by calling out the Neo-Nazis, but not mentioning ANTIFA and the other groups who caused the violence.

Now we have the idiotic Civil Rights Investigation.

I’ve been looking at pictures of this fiasco over the past couple of days. Anyone else notice that most of the fighting is between whites? I keep seeing a little about BLM and a lot about KKK but not much about Antifa in the news. They are choosing to ignore this 800 pound gorilla.

Ordering the police to stand down is part of the Democrat playbook. They have done this many times for years. Remember how the Trump rally was shut down in Chicago? Mayor Rahm Emanuel had the police stand down not putting enough police on the street and ordering them to not do their job as protectors. As a result the Trump rally had to be shut down denying thousands of Trump supporters their right to hear Donald Trump. Donald Trump was denied his venue and was cheated out of thousands of dollars in rental of the auditorium. Police were pelted with bottles by the anti-Trump crowd, there were pictures of police with blood streaming down their faces.
