When good guys are bad guys

(from Confessions of a Racist)

How evil is evil that hides behind the mask of good, as the relentless hordes of pitchfork-carrying crusaders and anti-Confederate protest signs act as savage as the people they profess to oppose?

The Abolitionist of pre-Civil War inspired the hate of even the most sympathetic in the north because of their relentless call for war and bloodshed, so filled with mean-spiritedness they seemed more publicly evil as they great evil they claimed to oppose.

We see this in the contemporary abolitionists waging a new civil war in places like Charlottesville, where in their passive aggressive campaign, they provoke the most outrageous of their enemies to violence – not looking at all like the heroes that marched with Martin Luther King, but like the bombmaking radicals that blew themselves up in New York, hapless, mindless, ignorant fools who either never read real history or took on faith what their slanted professors told them about what happened in the past, and so justify their own misbehavior with deluded self-righteousness.

These fools are not completely to blame. They are largely puppets to a political organization that pulls their strings, organizes and pays for their protests, and then claims these things are spontaneous when they are not, using media the way Abbie Hoffman did to imply there is public support for their cause when all they do is cause trouble.

Politicians take to the street when they have no real power, and try to imply they have, and this is problematic for media – which has in the past laid claim to making and breaking of political figures they do not like.

Media and protestors follow a carefully laid out script, a campaign for a war waged without the slaughter of Irish, but leave a landscape strewn with dead good intentions, a war that leaves more than just statues laying on the ground, filled with hatred that so-called good guys profess as outrage. These armies stamp and stomp to some whispered command from some hidden political general, showing just how unreal all these players are, the herky jerky movement from the pulled puppet strings to the dishonest diatribes of a media empire trying to regain importance, but showing how more and more impotent and unimportant we have become.

Protestors now drink a different kind of Kool Aid, one laced with a different kind of poison, that kills common sense and makes for the mob rule Gen. Sherman always saw Abolitionists as, proving that a history unlearned is a history repeated, and the war that the north waged to destroy the south still continues simply because the south they imagine did not and does not exist, and the south that exists will continue to resist continued attempts to humiliate them – frustrating the puppets and the puppet masters alike.
