While serving the public as a police officer in my former life, I learned two simple truths: Do not argue with or try to reason with a drunk or a mentally ill person. Truth and logic are concepts that they cannot grasp. As I have gotten along in years, and especially in today’s political climate, one other type of individual needs to be added to that list…..today’s progressive liberal. As the leftist agenda has been embraced by today's progressive liberal, they continue to rage against any and all things acceptable in a normal, civil society. From Anti-fa to Occupation to George Soros to the widespread attempt to shutdown conservative speakers on the college campus to Bernie Sanders and the new "democratic socialist" representatives, this new, progressive liberal ideology is falsely and loudly accusing their opponents of perpetrating hate speech, while they actually engage in hate speech and use violence to further their agenda. "Democrat" leaders adhere to the Alinsky tactic of "by any means necessary", using their bully pulpits to malign the President and anything contrary to their ideology. No longer can one reason with this unwavering marginal population, but understanding what their words truly mean can actually be helpful in maintaining one’s sanity. No matter how well versed you are in any subject, you will not be able to convince them of the truth, so don’t even try. Today’s progressive liberal/Leftist will not deviate from their accepted talking points. The following are a few of those talking points or catch phrases common to many of our leftist “friends” and what they truly mean:
We need to start a conversation….
I already consider you a hateful, homophobic, woman loathing conservative, so you need to listen to what I have to say and agree fully with it. Your opinion means nothing to me and if you try to disagree with what I believe, I will shout you down and belittle your faith, maleness, whiteness, politics or anything else that I deem offensive.
Health care is a right…..
The constitution, the bill of rights are outdated documents that mean nothing to me. I have been indoctrinated by public schooling that fails to teach the glaring inadequacies of socialism, failures of government run health care and the successes of the free market with its' ability to drive innovation in health care. I get the rest of my information watching CNN, MSNBC and other left wing propaganda outlets. I believe that government run health care will ensure that everyone has the same coverage and pays nothing for it, even though taxing the "rich" will not provide enough money to fund it and will significantly reduce availability. As a democratic socialist, I can make up my own rules as I see fit. You uncultured conservatives have no idea that the founders were nothing but a bunch of white slave owners that were simply too ignorant to understand the complexities of governing, especially now that we are at the pinnacle of enlightenment.
There is systemic racism in our criminal justice system…..
I don’t believe that the welfare state has actually caused horrific economic conditions, broken families and neighborhoods rife with crime. I don’t believe that minorities are herded into the inner city by democrat policies that give them just enough benefits to entice them to continue to vote for democrats that only care that their votes allow democrats to maintain power. I don’t believe that democrat policies have created a disheartened, discouraged and lost generation. I don’t believe that the unjust segregation of minorities, cleverly disguised by democrats as a “war against poverty” has anything to do with blacks committing the vast majority of crimes, logically leading to higher incarceration rates. I believe that white racist cops systematically hunt down unassuming and honest black men engaging in legitimate activities simply because they have nothing better to do than hassle and execute minorities. I also believe that black men will receive a harsher sentence for any crime they are (falsely) accused of, simply due to the color of their skin.
We need comprehensive immigration reform….
We need open borders and a free path to immediate citizenship so that the tired, hungry masses will continue to vote for democrats and take the wealth (and I want my share) from those who actually contribute to society.
Human activity is causing global warming
Global climate fluctuations have been and will continue to occur over time. Warming and cooling of this planet is cyclical. But, we need a convenient excuse to blame our perception of an iniquity in our economic system in order to find an easy way to redistribute wealth to those who are too selfish and lazy to work for their own success. And by the way, I don’t need to be environmentally conscious, I just need to spout off that you and your SUV are destroying the planet!
Black lives matter and “Hands up don’t shoot”….
You white racists should just shut up and go away. You and your opinion do not matter and I don’t want to hear it. Any talking point that consists of words no longer than 5 letters and can be printed on a sign, even if it is a proven false narrative, works for me if I can get what I want without having to work for it. Pigs in a blanket, fry em’ like bacon!
We need to have reasonable gun control….
Guns are bad. If we ever get back in power, we will take them away from you! See Virginia Legislature.
We can pay for free college, Medicare for all and the "Green New Deal" by making the 1% pay their fair share....
Young people are so gullible. Tell them we can pay for their tuition and forgive their college debt with other people's money and they will support an almost 80 year old socialist who has accomplished nothing in his life, listen to and elect a former bartender without a cogent thought in her head to Congress, and will vote to elect a self proclaimed "social justice warrior" to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. And we can save the climate with our "Green New Deal". What a bunch of morons! We know better than you and should be the ones who should make decisions for all you lesser intellects, and we'll do so by redistributing "your" wealth to line our own pockets, all the while reducing the quality of everyone else's lives while enriching our own.
The Republicans favor large corporations by enabling them to unjustly take wealth away from the middle class….
I believe that corporations rape the planet and those that live upon it. I believe that corporations steal resources, pollute with impunity and never use their profit to benefit anyone but themselves. I believe the rich have rooms full of money that they refuse to share with those less fortunate than them. I am completely convinced that socialism is the appropriate system to level the playing field. It will not lift anyone out of poverty, but it will bring down the rich to everyone else’s level and distribute what they have earned to those who refuse to make a positive contribution to society. Then I can continue to “attend” college, listen to my anarchist professors, and force the rich to pay for my education and everything else so that I will never have to grow up.
Abortion....You have no right to tell me what to do with my body, or better known as reproductive rights….
Since I do not possess a responsible bone in my body and am too lazy to properly utilize birth control, if I become pregnant, I want to have the autonomy to murder my unborn child, I mean to excise that unviable tissue, even after birth, with impunity. Since I am inherently selfish, abortion is a much more convenient way to dispose of the fruits of my irresponsibility than the daunting task of responsibly raising a child. I am far too enlightened to believe in God and care nothing about the sanctity of life. I want to continue in my selfishness because it is all about me and my self-esteem.
We need to get to the bottom of this....
We will only accept what we believe fulfills our ideologic ends. Any and all truth are irrelevant, and we will continue to obfuscate as we see fit. After all, the media will continue to parrot our talking points to cover for us.
Trump engaged in collusion and obstruction....
Holy crap, Mueller let us down. We thought that his partisan band of democrat donating attorneys would drum up enough baseless accusations that we could get rid of this buffoon. Now it looks like the tables have turned. Our criminal conduct may just be discovered and we may the ones frog walked into court. We'll just impeach the "M'fer" to obfuscate our complicity in a fake investigation. Oops, that didn't work out well, especially for Biden. Oh well, we'll just continue to drum up more false accusations and begin hearings on any actions by the President that we disagree with and impeach him again. Our base will love it! If we don't continue with investigation after investigation, some of us better start looking into taking a one-way trip to a country without an extradition agreement with the US.
Judges need to mete out justice and protect those who are oppressed by the tyranny of an unfair economic and legal system....
The Constitution is an outdated document, written by white slave owners and should be disregarded. Judges make law and any conservative laws need to be struck down and eliminated. Rule of law? We don't need no stinking rule of law, our appointed and elected judges make decisions based on leftist ideology, not the law, and you will simply have to suffer the consequences. See Sotomayor.
We cannot impose a religious test.....
Now that the democrats have a majority in the House of Representatives, they also chair all the House committees. No longer is it deemed necessary to end the swearing in of witnesses with that troublesome phrase, "So help me God" as God is not a part of our religion of big government, global warming and isn't appropriate for the global citizens we liken ourselves to be. It doesn't matter that our nation was founded on Judeo-Christian beliefs. Faith in anything other than what we believe is irrelevant. Take your God and don't bother us with your knuckle dragging homophobia, Islamaphobia and any other phobias we invent to describe those we disagree with in order to belittle our opponents.
We must stay at home to protect lives.....
Thank you China! We have finally found a way to crash the economy with the threat of a invisible virus. We really don't care how many die, but this gives us the means to finally get rid of the Bad Orange Man. The upcoming depression will make it easier to promote our socialist programs, setting us on a path to full blown socialism. Free everything. Take all the rich fat cat's money and spread it out. Open borders. We will have a democrat majority forever, if we don't completely destroy the country....Oh well, at least we will be in charge, not those evil Republicans and their stupid ideas of personal responsibility and the freedom to choose to make for yourself a better life with hard work and determination.
As a conservative, this post can assist you from becoming increasingly frustrated as your progressive liberal/leftist acquaintance prattles on about the things they have never bothered to properly inform themselves of. Knowing the true meaning of their rants can allow one to smile and shake our heads at the hypocrisy and insanity that is the left.
