The Real Threats and Blame vs The Liberal Abstract Threats and Blame
Media and Liberal/Leftists are in apoplexy at President Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Climate pact (just the latest in their constant hysteria and perpetual outrage). This shows those of us who actually use our brains, that our "progressive betters" do indeed occupy an alternate universe from real working folks… President Trump’s strongest base!
Liberals ALWAYS proclaim and sell fear of the ABSTRACT (like global warming), while NEVER recognizing and often denying the fear of the REAL (terror). If you fear the real threat of an ISIS nut yelling “Allahu Akbar” shooting down gays or driving a truck through a crowd, or otherwise slicing and dicing the "infidel" you’re a “hateful bigot”! If you fear an attack by an illegal immigrant felon on his 10th return from deportation, you’re a “hater” and "racist". BUT… If you fear the abstract nonsense that Donald Trump will put you in a concentration camp or we're going back to lynching, child labor, back alley abortions and segregation… then you’re a Liberal!!! Perpetual hysteria at disasters long promised but yet to happen (no ice at the poles… rising sea levels drowning cities, etc) is their constant tired worn out old creed... delivered in robotic rehearsed almost zombie like "talking-point" tones of panic by long-faced talking heads! Creative ideas to actually help the middle class are dismissed as “unworkable” and denial of real threats of crime and terror have become their insanity PeeCee norm. It has been observed "Progress is NOT possible with 'progressives' in charge!!!"
Trump has pointed out the crime, unemployment, drugs and despair of longtime Democrat machine run heavy “gun control” inner cities. That they are poverty and gang ridden free fire zones, who's people (mostly minorities) liberals (especially white liberals) seem to care little about (other than the votes)! Liberals also BLAME only in the abstract (“it was a video”, “it was the gun”)… NEVER the actual perpetrator! (He/she/it might be a Democrat voter!)… so it’s always the gun to blame, the NRA (abstract) never the owner of the finger that pulls the trigger (real)!
This abstract mindset allows mega-rich, mega-privileged Liberal/Leftists to fly around the world in luxury private jets that burn more fuel and create more CO2 in an hour that your SUV in years… all the while arrogantly complaining about “fossil fuels” and attending “Global Warming” summits at expensive and exclusive resorts (using lotsa precious water to keep them green... that us average folks could NEVER afford)! I must ask… why should I fear this “Climate Change” if by their actions, mega-rich Liberal/Leftists clearly do not seem worried enough to change THEIR lifestyles?.. (All the while lecturing us on our use of evil "fossil fuels").
Trump won because he represents the “forgotten”… those of us our liberal “betters” want to dismiss as “bigots”, "racists" and forget! But the reality of the liberal insular Pollyanna world is broken daily by REAL dangers and events (London terror being only the latest)! Yet each time... their scab of denial of the REAL in favor of the ABSTRACT only becomes thicker with each of these grim realities!
They complain President Trump gave his "middle finger" to the Earth, but the "enlightened progressives" in their walled neighborhoods and self-righteous Ivory Towers give us "ordinary" folks, the "middle finger" every damn day, and at every opportunity!
Two tenths of a degree, oh my!
This will NOT be solved by governments. That should be obvious by now.
Buy stock in teddy bear, candle making, sympathy card companies, etc...
There was a character on the tv show King of the Hill, I believe named Dale Gribble. He was a conspiracy theorist...always worried about some fantastical government plot against him, all the while he never figured out his wife was cheating on him. I thought the character was genius...and today’s left reminds me of him.
Speaking of giving the middle finger, have people forgotten that in the wake of the Paris massacre a couple of years ago, something like 140 people slaughtered at another concert, with the building still smoldering and the bodies hardly yet cleared from the streets, Obama flew to Paris to talk about Climate Change. This was something like 3 days after the massacre.
That’s what a middle finger looks like.
Leftists are not denying reality. What is happening is intentional. Fast and Furious was originally a gun interdiction program but Eric Holder turned it into a gun running program. The left is using Islam to suppress and destroy opposition to their totalitarian goals. Sadiq Kahn says there is no reason to be alarmed. He absolutely right, everything is going just fine. The stupid people are the ones who scratch their heads and say ‘why are liberals so stupid, don’t they understand’. The left will institute Sharia Law one piece at a time and stupid people will still think the left does not know what it is doing.
Personal responsibility does not exist for the deranged liberal leftist.
The author gets it.
I agree with the fact they’re pushing an agenda laid out in front of them, but at their core they don’t believe in personal responsibility and that colors everything they do in life.
Even two degrees is barely enough to feel on your skin for all practical purposes.
