From a perspective of politics as a coercive force, this makes perfect sense. It’s almost impossible for a democrat to get through the day without saying something about race – something really stupid. This from frontpagemag.com.
Last week, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, Biden’s UN Ambassador, said white supremacy is “weaved into our founding documents and principles.”
“Racism is real in America and always has been,” whined Kamala Harris, who practically called Biden racist during the Democrat primary campaign.
Democrats call anything that challenges their misrule racist – including Georgia’s election reform–an attempt to “disenfranchise minorities.”
Per gun ownership, in 2008 Obama said Middle Americans bitterly cling to guns and “antipathy to people who aren’t like them.”
And the Electoral College, the Senate filibuster “a remnant of Jim Crow,” voter ID laws, capitalism and the Constitution.
The left also insists that we confront “institutionalized racism,” “white privilege,” “white fragility” (whites who refuse to admit their racism), and “whiteness” – in order to reach the promised land of “racial justice,” “racial equality,” and “racial equity.”
It’s like: “Hello, I’m a Democrat. Let me bitch and whine (while I moan and groan) about racism.”
But, seriously, what is the rationale for the left’s obsession with race? Again, from a perspective of politics as a coercive force, it makes perfect sense. As outlined on frontpagemag.com, here are seven reasons why the left keeps pushing its racism rant:
-
The left needs a new proletariat – According to Marxist theory, the Bolshevik Revolution was supposed to spark revolution worldwide. It didn’t because workers refused to accept their assigned role. With race, they found a way to organize, agitate, and create the chaos that makes it impossible for anyone else to govern. [The creation of an unpoliceable class of people.]
-
Another reason to hate America – Hatred of America has become the sine qua non of the modern Democrat Party. With its 1620 Project, The New York Times pushes the cant that America began as a “slaveocracy.” Race gives the left multiple opportunities to loath the Land of the Free – slavery, segregation, what it calls the genocide of Native Americans, the exploitation of Asian labor, World War II detention camps and so on. More than socialism or environmental hysteria, it’s race-based anti-Americanism that drives the left.
-
An excuse to create new programs and spend tons of money – According to the party of secession and segregation, “institutionalized racism” can be solved in two ways – Getting white America to admit its guilt and do perpetual penance, and an open checkbook. Even spending on COVID and Climate Change are given a racial spin. Reparations would be the crown jewel of welfare spending. To atone for centuries of racism, the spigot will always be open. Spending junkies like California Governor Gavin Newsom have pledged to appoint advisory commissions on reparations, which will reach a foregone conclusion. Spending is the lifeblood of the Democrat Party. Reparations will provide unending transfusions.
-
Attack capitalism – Democrats are always looking for new and exciting ways to undermine the economic system that made America strong and prosperous. Because the free market doesn’t deliver prosperity with complete equality (unlike socialism which bestows misery uniformly), capitalism is said to be racist.
-
Demoralize the middle class/marginalize the majority — Even if no one in your family ever owned a slave or a segregated lunch counter, or harbored racial animus, you can be made to feel guilty because of your skin color. (Like the Nazis, Democrats believe in racial guilt.) It’s also a way to intimidate. If you don’t support Black Lives Matter and open borders, you’ll be thought of as a racist.
-
Keep minorities in a constant state of turmoil – Think of Black Lives Matter, Rev. Al Sharpton and the rest of the racial guilt industry as shock troops for the Democrat Party. Every police shooting is another opportunity for Democrats to slash budgets and effectively handcuff local law enforcement. The message: We’re your friends, while Republicans, who call for the even-handed application of justice, hate you.
-
Keep black votes in the Democrat column – In the last campaign, Biden told a black talk show host, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.” (Mr. Nasty later apologized, attributing the remark to geriatric exuberance.) In the 2012 campaign, then-Vice President Biden told an African American audience that Republican candidate Romney would “put y’all back in chains.” Like a dog returning to its vomit, Democrats keep coming back to this theme: “Republicans love the Confederate flag,” and “The GOP celebrates police shootings of the proverbial ‘unarmed black man.'” Of course, what are they going to say: “Hey, vote for the party that destroyed the black family?” or “Vote for the party that wants to keep African Americans in a permanent state of the dependence?”
What say you Def-Con News readers? The more I read, the more I come to believe both ends of the political spectrum are working to divide Americans. What I’m not sure of, though, is the answer to the question, Why?
Is it a divide-and-concur initiative? Are we being pushed into a race war, perhaps for the betterment of America–you know, in a long-term thought process, as crazy as that seems? Or politics as a coercive force? It’s an issue of control, yes?
Whatever the political rationale, hold on to your seats ’cause I believe we’re in for one hell of a ride during the coming weeks and months. More and more of us are becoming disgusted with this push to totalitarianism. President Trump you are missed, sir.
And don’t forget, the democrats never stop working their evil ways. We have the following to look forward to:
Democrats haven’t quite figured out a way to tie infrastructure spending to race. Don’t worry; they will.
