As someone squarely in the political middle, this writer sees a lot of craziness on both sides. But it seems like a lot of the violence (if not all of it) is coming from the Left, democrats as we call them in America. They call themselves tolerant and moral, but have shown themselves to be intolerant and immoral. Think about it. Where are all these calls for killing people coming from? Leftist commentators, MSNBC, and other Leftist outlets.
Some venture to say that this is driven by hate. While we can see that this is closer to the truth than not, it doesn't answer the lingering question. Where does this hatred come from? How did these people get like this? Is there any way to turn them back into rational, thinking human beings and away from being mindless beasts fueled by nothing but pure emotion?
Why not become socialists? After all, that's what these people want more than anything. If we just become socialists, surely the killing will stop, right? No, quite the opposite. Socialism/communism has killed more people than just about anything in the history of mankind. The only thing this writer can think of that even comes close is abortion. Considering socialism has killed 30-40 million more people than abortion, it's even not even that close. In other words, the killing will get worse if we become socialists. Just ask anyone who's had to run for their life to escape socialism.
Maybe we should just shut up. No, we shouldn't. Stupid ideas must always be challenged because they are stupid. To simply shut up and accept these things is to live in Hell, suffering until the day you die. And as an opinion writer and an anti-victim, "shut up and accept it or die" doesn't resonate with this writer.
Simply talking should not be grounds to be killed. This is not the Middle East. This is not North Korea. This is not Venezuela. This is America and that type of crap doesn't fly here. America was built on the ability to speak freely. That's why it's the 1st Amendment. If we can't even speak anymore, we are no longer America. We're Iran 2.0.
If these people want us to accept their ideals, they need to prove that their ideals aren't stupid. But they can't, because their ideas aren't based in truth. They can't prove that men can get pregnant. They can't prove that men and women can successfully transition from one to the other. They can't prove that allowing children to be raped is a good thing. They can't prove that socialism is anything but a bunch of garbage. Because they can't prove anything, yet still want you to accept it, they have to kill you. They have to scare you into silence. After all, if no one objects to their ideals, then they can impose them on everyone.
By now, we all know what happens when people have to kill you into accepting their ways. We know what happens when you simply "shut up and accept it". The people who have to resort to these things aren't leading you anywhere good. That's why they have to force you into it. We cannot allow ourselves to be governed by people who think like this. In the words of President Trump, "Fight! Fight! Fight!" No matter what you think of the man, THAT is a message that everyone can get behind. It's a lot better than "shut up or die", right?
Until next time...
