Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
—Saul Alinsky
it ain’t just “liberal reporters” ...its “liberals” in general-most of whose arguments fail any reasonable scrutiny-and they run off and holler racism or some such when faced with that reality
That’s why Trump’s throw-away line of: “hey Russia, help us find Hillary’s 5,000 emails...” is used as “proof” of Russian collusion.
it’s not fake news when they consistently lie...
it’s the enemedia...
I had a conversation with my late mother 25 years ago, about Rush Limbaugh stirring her and so many millions up into a tizzy. I told her the thing that drives people crazy is his certainty. Post modern culture hates certainty.
“Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”
Alinsky wouldv’e liked for that to be true, and sure enough, today’s constructive criticism might as well be thought of as ridicule by the way some people take it to be insulting. If you’re past 21 and can’t handle constructive criticism then maybe you have self-esteem issues. If you’re a liberal and have these issues it makes perfect sense that you would have low self-esteem (LOL), especially if you support the Obama-Deep State, Green New Deal, etc. agendas. ..LOSERS!
I didn’t know “Babylon Bee” had religious roots. Interesting.
They were brought up on the Liberal ‘religion’ that there are NO absolutes. For them- everything is ‘relative’.
It isn’t true of course, but it sounds cool, so Liberals swallow it whole.
Now America is held hostage by whole voting elements who have no standards, no core beliefs, recognize no authority above themselves, and who don’t have enough individual integrity to challenge even the most obviously unworkable and illogical policies.
They are perfect ‘cult’ members and accept, without question, ANY/EVERY ideologue the DNC foists on them! The limitless credulity of Liberal voters means the DNC can accomplish this as easily as marketers promote the newest toothpaste or cola beverage.
I remember reading that ‘People who lose their humility are prey to every imaginable fanaticism on earth.’
It’s scary to think that electing a President for the most powerful national entity in the known universe has been trivialized to THIS extent!!
I’ll go with “Pride” for $500, Alex.
Their pride is based on false premises, and in their hearts the know it.
They got blue ribbons for showing up. They got no correction for wrong spelling of words. 2+2=5 is fine, we’ll work on that later. They could do no wrong. They could not be spanked or deservedly disciplined. They are, indeed, snowflakes.
In media, movies and higher politics, they further become narcissistic then egotistical. All for good looks or speaking, and reading lines they’re given — not their own works.
ANY threat to their thin and brittle mask is immediately and harshly deflected. That true nature and/or skill level SHALL NOT be exposed.
When Trump says something that is obviously funny, they will look around and say "did he say something funny?"
Trump is not funny at all to them, because they are purposely denying him a sense of humor.
To deny someone a sense of humor, is to deny him a sense of humanity.
Ridicule & mockery is the way slay the beast.
““hey Russia, help us find Hillary’s 5,000 emails...” is used as “proof” of Russian collusion.”
Would it be too much to ask Trump to submit to a polygraph? Absolutely!

Well perceived. Trump's weapon in the battle of wits is humor but the massholes keep showing up unarmed.
Confuse liberal journalists tell them a joke.
They are cynical about society, in service of being naive about government.
“cynical about society” = anti social
