War On An American Future
Truth Based Logic ^ | July 1, 2018 | William Flax

Posted on 07/05/2018 11:03:17 AM PDT by Ohioan

In our May feature, we addressed the typical Leftist tactic of misdirecting public focus away from the actual causation of perceived "problems," to fantasized targets; a practice that prevents either solution or mitigation of any "problem." [Misdirection: Dangerous Leftist Tactic] Here we challenge the single most significant & egregious example of such misdiretion, the Collectivist/Humanist "politically correct" answer to problems that flow from a failure to respect others, by suppressing focus on, or even awareness of, the vast differences in human aptitudes, motivations, priorities & the varied cultural achievements of each community or nation--reflected in all we once celebrated under the inspiring label of heritage.

We continue to focus on the tactic that the Left employs not only to divert attention from underlying phenomena for which they have no rational answer; but also, in so doing, actually render either a solution--or even mitigation--of any actual problem, impossible. Why? Because actual solutions or mitigations of problems generally require rational examinations of causation, rather than diverted attention from that causation.

The left always needs to create political targets of their anger.

The tactic reflects the fundamental dishonesty of their intentions. One does not have to lie, unless--as is here the case--the purpose is itself an attack on reality. If you hate reality, and wish somehow to "outlaw" it, you are forced to lie.

The original "Emperor" in the Andersen fable, really was naked; and the Courtiers' lie did not clothe him.

Yws, but the “misdirection,” we are discussing is to keep the attention of their followers and perspective followers off of the real causation for the phenomena they seek to outlaw. They are not about solutions, only destruction of the achievements of past generations: A truly hideous war on heritage & human accomplishment, waged by a form of verbal sleight of hand.

If we don’t WAKE THE HELL UP AND GET BUSY we don’t HAVE ONE!
Two short videos to assist your understanding of the current LAWLESSNESS and why - if we continue to SLUMBER - those responsible may NEVER BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE.
What’s that old saying again? “USE it or LOSE it”. It applies to FREEDOM and the PROCESSES of MAINTAINING IT!
MILLIONS of us hitting those upcoming CONGRESSIONAL TOWN HALL meetings on a regular basis MIGHT send ‘em the message that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! “THEY” are counting you to REMAIN ASLEEP!
Oh yeah. If you can’t get to these meetings, the number at the Capitol is 202-224-3121. You should call your critters once a week or so to give them a piece of your mind. As an added bonus, you’ll be treated to the WORST MUSIC-ON-IGNORE in the history of mankind!

We either have THE RULE OF LAW for EVERYONE or we tolerate the LAWLESSNESS OF THE WOULD-BE RULERS!

We can’t have it BOTH WAYS!

And the end stage of the latter is ALWAYS TOTAL TYRANNY.

Which will it be, America? WHICH WILL IT BE??
And remember that the most dangerous phrase in ANY language is
“Why THAT could never happen HERE?”
Are you willing to bet YOUR KIDS’ future that it won’t?

If you’re STILL sitting out this fight, that’s PRECISELY what you’re doing!

Another excerpt on the foreign policy aspects of the deliberate misdirection, practiced by the Left:

This is not the path to peace, rather one that polarizes combatants; one that leads to a destruction of generations of social achievement; to the death of inspiration, the loss of purpose, rather than healthy aspiration. On the other hand, it explains why egalitarian internationalists so despise Donald Trump. In returning America to her Constitutional purpose, he threatens their multi-generational effort to abort our very continuity as a people. [What Drives The Trump Haters]

Gentlemen:

Suspect that you will like this approach to the underlying issues that go to the ongoing battle for an American future based upon the foundation that most of us cherish.

As long as they get to be the Captain of the sinking Titanic, the Leftists don’t care (the Soviet Union proved that). They will even try to steer towards an iceberg if they think it will help achieve that goal.

The Left is now, and was in Paris in 1789; Central Europe in 1848; Russia in 1917; America in 2008 & today, all about hatred of heritage--often blind, irrational hatred. They also--as every revolution that appears successful--if only for a time--draw opportunists. It is the opportunists who more clearly fit your suggestion.

Since the true haters are often delusional, some of them may actually be internally misdirected; that is, what starts as a tactic to divert attention from reality--analogous to the attention diverting antics of a concert hall magician--may in some cases morph into a "sincere" belief in the relevance of the fantasy. But that fantasy, being a fantasy--prevents a constructive answer to any "problem."

Here is another excerpt from my article, particularly relevant to another active thread, today, which deals with the specific threat to Christian farmers in Nigeria:

The misdirection from recognizing the causation of actual problems, arising in disrespect, to an egalitarian fantasy consistent with a Compulsion For Uniformity, not only leads to (rather than resists) a tendency to impose monolithic social norms. It has already led to genocidal events & cultural suppression in numerous instances, some discussed in detail in "Democracy" In The Third World, which addresses what happens when arbitrary "one man/one vote" Democracy is imposed on nations, with very different cultures, forced to live together within what were formerly colonial administrative borders, based upon an insulting fantasy that we are all somehow interchangeable.

Try this link to the thread on Nigeria:

https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3668868/posts

Isn't it high time we shifted back to a policy goal of mutual respect among peoples, and scrapped the forced association being dictated by fantasy seeking fanatics in the name of "diversity?"

Consider the benefits of the Washington/Jefferson approach, which guided early America into the most enviable position on earth.

Here is another excerpt:

With that one qualification--we recognize that every people has a natural right to the continuity of heritage in their own lands;--that every nation has the right to control its own borders; control who may enter; define the terms of such entrance; define its own citizenry, pecking orders, political & social institutions; the role, if any, of a State supported Faith.

For America to preserve what was won at Yorktown, does not & never has implied a slight to anyone. For America to return to an immigration policy based both on merit, and a process of screening for cultural compatibility, is only common sense; a process, in fact, required by the explicit language of the Preamble to our written Constitution:
