Rush Limbaugh’s Far Greater Adversary Than The Left! In light of the ADL slander against him.

All of the books and articles about the “Religion of Liberalism” do not get to the WHY. Why people are drawn to worship Liberalism, (and with particular frequentcy secular Jewish people) boils down ton exactly ONE word: GUILT.

You are of course correct that “brainwashing” is an important factor. (Actually, not true brainwashing, but constant propaganda and conditioning by schools, the media, and peer approval.)

One kind of radical (usually leadership) uses the Ideology cynically, to manipulate the emotions of the others for the purpose of obtaining, and keeping, POWER.I think most of these have no real commitment to the Ideology. Remember the saying that there are/were more true communists in the Wests academia than in the USSR.

Thee leaders use the emotion of guilt to manipulate everyone else:

1. Tea Party folks are called racists and Nazis.

2. People who criticize Faux-bama are racists who hate it that a black is president.

3. People who oppose health care are slaveholders.

The list is endless. They incite feelings of guilt, and then offer a way to assuage those feelings. This works somewhat differently, with different people.

I submit, for your consideration, the case of a family friend: She WAS a good hearted, Christian, and conservative. Due to a divorce, she had to take employment as a social worker. A couple of years later, she had become a bitter, raving lefty, spouting all the standard lefty talking points. I think that what happened was that, as she was helping people become dependent of welfare, cognitive dissonance came into play. I think she knew, deep down, that much of what she was doing was not good. It was not part of her core beliefs, so she changed to core beliefs which were more congruent to what she had to do.

Much of the evolution of American society for quite a while has had the direct effect of making more and more people dependent on the government, for their existence. When this befalls someone who previously had been self-sufficient the cognitive dissonance kicks in, and core values are changed.

Consider, also, the Hollywood star, or Rock star. They have to be aware, even if only subconsciously, that they are being paid millions for doing something which has little REAL value. The left comes along, and whispers in their ears: “If you give to, and advocate for, leftist causes, you will no longer feel any guilt and making all that money will become a good thing. You will become a hero of the proletariat, and a good person.

As for the chinos and jinos, they already KNOW that we are ALL guilty. That is, they are aware (if only subconsciously) That the emotions of guilt engendered by the leftist propaganda have some basis in reality. Not that they, personally, are any worse than anybody else, but their heritage (jino and chino alike) tells them that they are not “right” with their Creator. The left tells them that, if they will toe the Party line, that their guilt will magically be assuaged.

Jinos and chinos have turned away from God, and therefore, cannot partake in the forgiveness that He offers them. The religion of liberalism is all that is left to them.
