Hate is essential to the Left

Lincoln Brown

Listening to Debbie Wasserman-Shultz, and reading the latest headlines that say that the president’s new constituency form does not have a place for whites or for men, I have to ask myself, what does the Democratic Party have against old, white men? Joe Biden is an old white man. Harry Reid is an old white man; Barney Frank is an old white man. Michael Moore is a white man and a darn rich one, at that…….To consolidate power, and rally people to your cause, you must create someone to hate. There must be “The Other”. The Other that wants to kill you, The Other that wants to enslave you, The Other that must be isolated and ultimately dealt with in some definitive manner if society is to move forward. To isolate and defeat The Other, his character flaws must be exaggerated, and if necessary manufactured. The Other must be vilified, caricatured, lampooned and turned into a monster. Unfortunately one of the most effective ways to unify a nation is to create a common enemy, and strip then him of any vestige of humanity…..When the Khmer Rouge seized control of Cambodia, they eventually ran out of enemies to lock up, and began arresting seemingly loyal party members out of paranoia and a need to maintain a grip on the country…… if you step out of line, then suddenly, you may become The Other.  To Read More......

My Take – The overriding, overwhelming emotion that drives the left is hate, and the pattern goes back to the Russian revolution; actually back to the French Revolution, the foundation of socialism.  Jon Ray noted that when the communists took control in Russia one of the first things Lenin did was get rid of all the “old Bolsheviks”.   Before the Russian Revolution Germany was the geographic center for socialism in Europe, and so when the communists took over in Russia they all fled there thinking they would take part in creating a new society; a new social paradigm.  They found out that Lenin believed that there could only be one paradigm for the future, and he would determine what it would be....without them.  Make no mistake about this.  If Lenin lived he would have slaughtered millions and so would have Trotsky.  Stalin was far better at mass murder than either of them would have been, but they were all eggs out of the same basket.  If you doubt the basis for the author’s point that the left will eventually turn on its own, you may wish to view this post; Khmer Rouge, a Family Affair. 

The left hates.  That is the only thing all the different “leftist” groups have in common.  They have no philosophy that they cling to other than they need to attain power.  They will grasp any new philosophical flavor of the day that is popular, even if it is in conflict with their past views and claim it as their own.  Civil Rights is one such issue.  At one time they loved eugenics; that is ridding the country of the brown peoples in the nation.  That was the view of Margret Sanger who created the group now known as Planned Parenthood…..whose views were shared by ….. the socialist.....Adolph Hitler who even used her ideas in his grand scheme to create a master race.  And since leftism is basically atheistic, they have no foundational moral philosophy, and they are only left with hate, envy and resentment.   A hate they will just as happily direct at each other if no one else is available.   You know....we have the history going back for over two hundred years.  Why is it we have to keep pointing this out?  Why isn't this common knowledge...it is historical...why isn't it common knowledge? 

Good question....don't you think?
