“Have we not seen Communist country after Communist country systematically demonize who swaths of people to ultimately eliminate them so tyranny can come to fruition?
I greatly fear we are on the same path now.”

Yes, and a ‘cultural revolution’ scenario like China's would be embraced by many here in the US. There is resentment and hatred throughout the land, and to deny that is dangerously naive.

You can't let untruths and false narratives go on unchallenged indefinitely, as we have. They become the fertilizer of hatred and resentment. For too long we have let inner city social ills, poverty, welfare dependency, violence etc. be blamed on ‘white privilege’, prejudice, bigotry, ‘greedy rich people’, ‘right wingers’, etc. For too long we've let the world blame America for ‘suppressing the third world’, ‘not paying it's fair share’, exporting violence, suppressing it's own citizens - especially minorities, etc..

When allegations and false narratives like this are let to stand without vigorous, passionate, and highly visible refutation, they are given legitimacy and become part of the belief system of those looking for an easy and palatable answer for why their lives are not what they think they should be. Resentment and hatred for successful Jews in Germany led to millions of executed Jews and attempted genocide. Don't think for a minute that that same degree of resentment and hatred doesn't exist any more in the world, and that it can't be turned on you. It most certainly does and can be.

At this point what we need to do is to start the long process of seizing back the narrative, and delegitimizing the untruths and false narratives that the left has inculcated into our society over the past 60 years or more. It won't happen overnight, but it is essential.

Too late.

There is only one way left to refresh the tree of liberty.

I think that race hate and homosexual vindictiveness are precisely what drive Obama; I think he is just flat stuffed with ugly motives.

Remember that the biggest killers have always been Communists who came up from comfortable, middle-class backgrounds like Obama's.
