There was a time when we used to be a nation that pushed freedom, responsibility, decency, patriotism and hard work. Some of us still believe in those things, but because of liberalism, much more destructive values have seeped into our culture like toxic waste. There are many ways that liberals have degraded our culture, but these are the worst of the worst.
1) The Politicization Of Everything: Want to watch football? There are players protesting the flag. Turn on a Hollywood awards ceremony? There are actors making political statements. Want to go to the bathroom in peace? Well, first, we need to know if youre okay with sharing it with someone who feels like the opposite gender today. Youre just a regular person telling an off-color joke you heard? Better be careful; that could turn into a front page scandal if the wrong group gets offended. Want to buy a Halloween costume for your kid? Well, you better make sure its someone of the same race or people will be upset. Want to go on a date? If you date someone of the same race, you may be racist. Ready to marry your honey? Then you better support gay marriage or youre a homophobe. I can remember a time in America where you could just live your life without paying attention to politics at all if you wanted and that was a good thing. Remember that old saying? Never discuss race, religion or politics in polite company? Well, because of liberals, you dont have a choice anymore.
3) Victimhood: Only in America do people get so excited about the idea of being a victim that they will even fake hate crimes against themselves to get that status. Only in America are there women publicly crying that they were sexually assaulted and traumatized because a 93 year old, wheelchair-bound President pinched their butt. Only in America do we have to come up with things like white privilege and institutional racism because theres not enough real racism happening to allow liberal minorities to feel like victims. There was a time in America when people wanted to feel strong, capable and able to handle their own problems instead of being victims. There still are people like that today and theyre called conservatives.
5) Tribalism: Liberals work incessantly to split Americans in ever smaller groups that are at each others throats. If you want to get a sense of how bad it has gotten, were having ferocious public debates about transsexuals who, depending on how you define it, make up less than .25% to .75% of the population. Increasingly, the attitude is moving from the annoying, You just cant understand because of your race/color/gender to You HATE ME and I HATE YOU because of differences that are often unchangeable. This is incredibly dangerous to our future as a country because you cant hold any group of people including a nation together long term when people no longer believe they share the same goals and values as their neighbors. Our nations motto is E pluribus unum (Out of many, one), but what happens when liberals insist that the many never become one?
The WORSE things liberals have done is KILLED 56 MILLION BABIES and kicking God and His SON, JESUS, out of our country!!
NOW never wanted the same rights as men. They wanted Marxism and to destroy the nuclear family.
Take away HIS power.
Make him as irrelevant in society as a bicycle is to a fish.
Damned hairy legged lesbians.
Spot on.
This is the philosophy underpinning EVERY problem in our society.
Dirty hippies invented it.
You have identified the enemy.
Only six?
Correct, and they will get their just reward for it.
This started with LBJ’s “War on Poverty.”
A Dad in the home was no longer needed.
Bump
bttt
Amen! I believe we are very close to the last days. I am looking forward to the Rapture and being with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, when the time of the antichrist appears on this earth.
Popularity means more than quality. Everyone and everything about the music and entertainment business is over-politicized and therefore, overrated. No consumer ever gets what he or she pays for but they’re oblivious to that lack of value.
Exactly, Nea Wood. It's a tactic that allows them to take over the culture.
That's why I take every opportunity that I can.to be judgemental.
I will not allow the libscum to set the rules of engagement.
I agree, what's at play is much broader than six bullets in a PowerPoint deck. Actually, I think this article from right after the election nailed it better, and much more concisely. In essence:
Liberals... have made politics their religion....What they really want is liberal Sharia law, a secular theocracy.(emphasis added)
The minimum wage, gender equality, nationalized health care, and global warmino... They are essential aspects of the liberal fatwa...Question them and you are not just wrongyou are a heretic.
(For the left), politics is the means to secular salvation. This means that, to them, political failure is not just a setback on the road to a more stable societyit is a blow to their very worldview. Opposition to their program is not just wrong-headed, but evil.
Liberals don’t have the power to kick God from this country. He isn’t at their mercy, their ignorance, or their stupidity. He left believers here to occupy the territory. Maybe we should start doing that...

Liberals want to make nature irrelevant. Male humans have certain natural characteristics. Female humans have certain natural characteristics. How can liberals worship nature and make it irrelevant at the same time? This cranial malfunction on the part of liberals has rendered them socially retarded.
