They
have always been with us these purveyors of so-called truth, the self-righteous
who hate religion yet carry a cross upon their backs as permanent victims of oppression
they never actually suffered or perhaps does not even exist.
George
Orwell, a well-known socialist of his time, had no more use for them then we do
today -- this pack of people who profess to have the good of the masses in mind
when they have no idea of who or what the masses are, only what they think the
masses might be.
Social
Justice warriors are amazingly stupid in this regard, overeducated people who
spend their lives spreading hate while pretending it is good will.
“It’s
a ghastly thing to have a sort of human barrel-organ shooting propaganda at you
by the hour,” Orwell wrote. “it’s the same thing over and over again. Hate,
hate, hate.”
In this
essay, Orwell talked about going to a lecture and hearing the anti-fascist
speaker talking about the dangers of fascism and the more or will listen the
more he realized this person was only spreading hate.
“But
why? Likeliest explanation, because he’s scared,” Orwell wrote. “Every thinking
person nowadays is stiff with fright.”
The problem with these social justice types then
and now is that they have adopted this hatemongering as a religion, born out of
the old anti-fascist movement of the 1960s and before that the 1930s, just as
the new abolitionists are born out of the old Abolitionist Movement, so full of
their own self-righteousness that they forget that they are supposed to live in
a country that has inalienable rights that may not correspond with their
beliefs.
But
as the grating voice went on at the lecture Orwell attended long ago, he came
to a startling revelation. What scared Orwell most was the fact that the
speaker he saw was absolutely convinced of his own infallibility
“He
means it. Not faking at all – feels every word he’s saying,” Orwell wrote. “He’s
trying to work up hated in the audience, but that’s nothing to the hatred he feels
himself. Every slogan ‘s gospel truth to him.”
And
this made him dangerous, not just to himself or to the people he hated but also
to the people h was determined to convert to his religion of hate.
We have done the same in our I'm creating
scapegoats for our hatred in the shape of white supremacist and anybody who
supported Trump.
How many of these ill-willed bigots wearing the
new uniform of the new anti-fascist there are?
It's
hard to tell with media -- which even Orwell as wary of -- taking their side, magnifying
their importance to create the illusion that these few radicals represent the
mainstream of America when they don't.
This may be the real reason why the radicals are
steering the Democratic party into making fundamental changes that would have
the founding fathers rolling over in their graves.
These
radicals fully understand they have a short period of time to dismantle the
Constitution and all safeguards against mob rule before someone eventually catches
on to their deception.
They clearly understand that mainstream America
does not believe what they believe and so are determined to create the state in
which they control the levers of power and it doesn't matter what mainstream
America believes
Many of these are propped up by former radicals
of my time who found their revolutions floundering when the gullible young
people of their time grew up and decided they had families to raise and jobs to
help them pay for their piece of the American Dream. Many of those who never
grew up became the professors in our colleges determined to keep their mistaken
notions alive, to see them born again in a new deluded and gullible generation
of today’s youth.
This
idea that we need to destroy the country to make a better place is something
Orwell feared greatly although when he was writing he was talking about
Colonial England. He understood the idea that you made change gradually and
that it becomes fundamental and comes from the heart of the people not imposed
by a small group radicals who are determined to create a society in which their
views are imposed on other people.
The founding fathers here in America, of course,
were flawed and so they are vulnerable to attacks by this group of people who those
flaws undermine their virtues which was to create a system of safeguards that
prevents mobs like this from dictating how the whole country should exist.
Unfortunately. as in places like Soviet Russia
media has become a clear and present danger because it has been taken over by a
mindset that is equally determined to destroy all of those things that create
checks and balances.
It is hard to imagine that we will survive this
the way we survived all of the previous attacks on civil liberty but I suspect
we will, even though as others have pointed out the darkest hour is before the
dawn.
I do not hold out hope that these people who
pull the levers behind the new Biden Administration will ever grow up and learn
what America is really about and I fully believe they will spend their lives
and bitter dissent because they just can't get their way all of the time and at
some point must appreciate that other people have other points of view that are
just as valid as their own.
The question is how many of those who profess to
be mainstream today will uphold the founding fathers vision for society that
allows All Points of you to exist as long as they do not endanger other people?
