Delusional Malice
The Left’s all out assault on traditional American values is approaching a crescendo. As they see their beloved utopian dream continue to implode they no longer profess to “go high”. Rather, they seem to revel in taking the “low road” at every turn.
Credit to David Limbaugh who penned a wonderful piece on what the true meaning of Make America Great Again means and from whom I learned the phrase “Delusional Malice”. For that describes perfectly what the Left is up to.
Delusional describes the Left’s hopes and dreams:
- That everyone will live happily ever after with government provided healthcare for all;
- That confiscating everyone’s guns will eliminate gun violence;
- That taxing “the rich” (which really means everyone who has a job) will pay for all of government’s social programs, including the provision of universal healthcare;
- That eliminating plastic shopping bags and straws, large fountain sodas, incandescent lightbulbs, gasoline powered vehicles, etc. will “save the planet”;
- That we can all live happily in a perfectly integrated, multi-ethnic, multi-racial, multi-lingual and multi-religious society where we will harmoniously “all get along”;
- That the distinction between genders will be eliminated so there will be equal opportunity, equal pay, equal time on sports fields, irrespective of merit, experience, or accomplishment;
- That abortion may be used as contraception in lieu of continence;
- That God and religion are eliminated from our schools, discourse, laws and society generally;
- That we will no more have borders or have to worry about national sovereignty once we become one global family;
- And so on and so forth…
Malice describes the insidious nature of how the Left is advancing its agenda:
- By calling everyone who disagrees with them a racist, fascist, homophobe, xenophobe, etc.;
- By indoctrinating and exploiting children to advance their aims;
- By hijacking the vocabulary and promoting the use of definitions and memes that reflect their views;
- By outright lying both by omission and commission;
- By enlisting Hollywood and its supreme ability to make fiction and fantasy seem real to generate heart-string tugs and subtly brain-wash receptive audiences;
- By dumbing down deviance, i.e. trivializing evil and wrong (e.g. “it’s just sex”);
- By projecting, in the psychological sense, their aberrance and uncivilized notions onto traditionalists, conservatives and true patriots;
- By open physical harassment and “in-your-face” confrontation of anyone who opposes them;
- By refusing to condemn violence and unconscionable behavior in the name of “restraint” and “tolerance”;
- By exuding hypocrisy to the point of pathology;
- By seeking to suppress the speech, appearances, writings, even the posts and tweets of anyone who calls out their bilge for what it is;
- By claiming “science” backs their views when in fact the exact opposite is true;
- By saturating the air with so much drivel and vituperation that all vestiges of traditional mores and values are obscured.
As I’ve noted before, it’s difficult for Traditionalists to fight this cancer. We care about the High Road, and have been taught that we mustn’t “descend to their level”. We want to be left alone to live in peace as we know we can and should.
But Delusional Malice is becoming more and more manifest as each day goes by, as the Left continues to try to overwhelm the system and create an almost apocalyptic chaos from which only they can save us.
It is not enough to set an example and rise above all the mayhem. We must step up our counteroffensive, calling out lies and Leftist propaganda whenever and wherever we see it. We must push back against the onslaught, against the REAL fascism and bigotry, by opposing in every lawful way each and every initiative of the Left that would seek to drag us further down the slippery slope.
I don’t have any evidence or statistics to support this, but I’ll bet the majority of the attendees at the July 4th celebration on the National Mall two days ago were Traditionalists. It’s inspiring to see so many patriotic people come out and show their support for our flag, our country, and by extension, traditional American values. The Silent Majority spoke up. May we continue to do so and pull ourselves back up that slippery slope!
