The left has proven themselves to be the antithesis of truth, individuality and love, Dennis Prager said at CPAC 2019.
Prager, host of The Dennis Prager Show and founder of Prager U, spoke Saturday at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Maryland. He shared with the CPAC crowd 21 things that the left has completely damaged. These include universities, the media, arts, sports, the nuclear family, the Boy Scouts of America, religion and human happiness.
What makes the leftist agenda so dangerous, according to Prager, is that even people who are well-mannered and have good intentions can fall for its ideology, allowing it to spread in Americas culture.
Your opponent is irrelevant, Prager told political candidates in the past. You are running against someone on the left. The left is destructive.
Prager finds it baffling how people who believe in statements made by the left will engage in acts that are hypocritical. He pointed to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezs (D-NY) rhetoric that the world will end in 12 years and her belief that massive floods will emerge as a result of climate change. He wonders why people who believe in her words dont end up selling their homes by the waterfront.
Do they believe what they say? he asked.
Prager also commented on racial relations in the United States, blaming the left for creating hostility between black and white people and making up issues that dont exist.
There are probably more hoaxes than there are genuine beatings of black people by whites, he said.
During the end of his speech, he created an example of a married man who says, I love my wife, but I want to see her fundamentally transformed. Prager asked rhetorically if someone can truly love their wife and say such a thing. In comparison, can someone on the left really say they love America but want to change everything about it?
[Conservatives] love America because it is good, he said. [Liberals] hate America because it is good.
Prager ended his talk by advertising the upcoming documentary No Safe Spaces. This film details the totalitarian nature of modern college campuses, and how they hinder freedom of speech.
I’ll listen next week.
Read his “Exodus: God, Slavery and Freedom”.
I don’t believe such “a horrible human being” could write such a book definitively about God and Torah.
He makes a very clear case for God being the monotheistic God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel. If He isn’t, then He doesn’t exist.
Though, I doubt you’d read it as you seem to have him set in stone.

There is some irony in Laura Loomer getting her press credentials yanked at CPAC for doing to the leftist activist journalists working for such places as HuffPo as they do to those on the right.
The left wing propaganda peddlers on the left accused her of harassment and being an activist; not a journalist.
You just can't make this stuff up folks!
That statement is just as ridiculous as, "They hate us for our freedoms", uttered by the dope Bush.
No, they hate America because they are satanic.
There’s an easy to find interview Dennis Prager did where he’s basically slobbering all over his homosexual host. Told me everything I need to know about him. And I don’t mean that he should have got up in verbally spit in the guy’s face, but he made no attempt to point out what the word of God, which I previously thought Dennis Prager had a great deal of respect for, says about homosexuality and where that lifestyle will lead you in eternity.
Right. They do.
I’m a long time listener and the truth is 180 degrees from what you say about him.
Prager is a conservative through and through. He is decidedly not a #NeverTrumper!
Try listening to him and educate yourself before posting false thoughts ratting around in your head.
Wow, what is wrong with you!? You just spewed an entire fake news diatribe on one of the most intelligent of conservative men. In addition hes an expert on totalitarianism, he did his dissertation on it. Do you even know WHY he traveled to Russia!?
He is a religious scholar and frankly you could learn from him if youre capable of shedding your totally inaccurate accusations.
You are lost. Badly lost and have zero idea what youre talking about which says way more about you. Study up and come back and tell us what you learned. Unbelievable!
He has really changed overvyhe years . he is now obe of the most eloquent speakers against the left. His overall thought procrds is mow first class
No. Not at all. Listen to his show and you will quickly realize this. He is the most important voice in the Conservative movement today.
He is for the wall, and a Trump supporter. Where are you getting these opinions?
Who was this host? Dave Rubin? If so, he is “slobbering” over him because Rubin is one of the few liberals—not leftists—who believe in the difference between the two and who understands the damage leftists have done to the society.
PragerU was banned from Youtube so they are taking a civil suit all the way to the Supreme Court if needed to fight this anti-conservative BS in social media in general. Prager is fighting the good fight.
The hatred of the good for being good. Ayn Rand
This begins at a very personal level. Pride is the original sin. Pride is easily shamed. Some people behave well; some behave badly. Some work hard; some are lazy. Some students strive to excel; others are shirkers. Some people are sexually responsible; others are not.
One of the most fundamental moral choices all of us make is our reaction to our failings being exposed by the superior performance of someone else. Do we admire and applaud the excellence of others? Do we admit our failings, buckle up, and strive to do better? Or do we feel shamed, resent the other person for showing us up, make endless excuses, try to cover up our own failings and relentlessly attempt to tear down the other guy, and even attack the very concept of standards and merit? The second reaction is the high road to leftism. Prager makes that point endlessly in his talks and videos. Leftism is rooted in a fundamental moral defect. That's why, ultimately, we are engaged in a religious war.
Doesn’t change anything about my point. As a supposedly God-fearing man, Dennis Prager had an excellent forum to glorify the god he supposedly believes in and lovingly point out the biblical viewpoint on homosexuality, where the lifestyle will lead you, and the fact that true God fearing people still love homosexuals just like any other sinner which we all are.
I agree with you completely. I have listened to his radio show for years and saw him in person once. I also heard him on the radio discussing and explaining the Biblical prohibitions against homosexuality. That was several years ago, but I cannot imagine his views would change.
In my opinion his is one of the most solid conservatives in the US.
