The American Left Slides Into Psychosis

Here's your straight jacket.


The mid-term elections are coming soon and with that, the likely end of control of the House of Representatives by the Democrats. While this is far from a complete victory for Republicans, it will represent the beginning of the end for Democrats being able to act in civil and decent fashion. Their utopia will be unrealized not because it was stopped, but because it wasn't and completely and totally failed and thus was rejected.

The key point to remember is this, if you thought they were vile, bitter, nasty, ridiculously hypocritical, self-centered and absorbed, and finally a bit prone to authoritarian and violent solutions before then get ready because you'll now see that was just the tip of the iceberg.

The rhetoric will now turn to how the American people, or any lay people are simply too stupid to manage themselves or know what their own best interests happen to be. The rhetoric will make "What's the Matter with Kansas?" look like a field day. See in this instance there is no terrorists dropping buildings or the grinning George Bush to blame for the 'supposed' lies Americans will have bought. The left will have had full control of the Congress and Presidency for two years and Congress for four years total with a compliant and preening media in tow. The only reason for failure will have been Democrats themselves and unable to understand or acknowledge that fact, they will bitterly and perhaps even more violently attempt to alter this fact.

So prepare yourself. Those Americans who didn't want to turn in their clunker and decided to raise a few chickens and enjoy their gardens, they were merely radical, extremist survivalists before the election. What will they be after the election? Who knows but simply start to prepare yourself now for the onslaught of insanity that is sure to occur.

I guess you didn't see the "AMERICAN" in the title there Seg. But along the same vain, we know that pretty much every protest in Europe goes this way regardless of political orientation. We all understand that European thuggery is historically well documented and cause for concern.

However we do now have our first example of said psychosis. I don't mean Seg of course but that fabulous guy Ted Rall.

It seems he has a new book out and of course happens to hit on a few of the themes I just mentioned.


These folks were of course all brilliantly educated and fantastically smart when electing Democrats.


Seg would probably just say this guy was a rightist idiot.

Interesting point but I don't think anyone has declared there aren't outliers to any belief system. Rather we are talking about what will happen to the broad middle of that belief system. There will always be Westboro Churches or something similar for all beliefs. I'm talking about movements much larger than that.

The linked article gave a number of examples. If we see Westboro burning down all the ballot machines in a county or they manage to get mainstream media members to participate in a program and create a video short portraying the church members having a room full of people raise their hands by orientation and then pressing the red button to blow up the homosexuals, then you might have a point. (It would be interesting to see who would defend such a video as funny.)


I think the 10:10 movement had to courage to say that they really do believe genocide is the answer to global climate change. The left will get a whole lot more brave about their positions after November.

They are also quite common left-wing beliefs. It's just those darn science types get slapped down and controlled often enough that the U.S. doesn't deal with their "substandards" the way China and the Soviet Union did.


Isn't it amazing how often this motley lot of fools manages to get things done against the true believers and (supposedly) most intelligent people on the planet.


Eugenics was in place well before Nazi Germany and helped contribute to the socialist regime in that country just as it did the Communist regime in Russia. Scientific Socialism replaced classic liberalism as personified in the United States by folks like Thomas Jefferson, with a system of beliefs related to how inferior and superior certain humans happen to be. The reason for a belief in centralized government is entirely based on the belief that the intellectual elites will be able to help those without the same intellectual capacity properly run their life. Centralizing of authority is related to the belief that the authority has a superior intellect and the masses, an inferior intellect. It is pure eugenics.


You are welcome to show that the Soviet Union did not engage in these actions. They did so completely as well. Perhaps they didn't try to wipe out one entire ethnic group, but they certainly had no problem using eugenic principles to organize their entire society and likewise had no problem dealing with "inferiors." Eugenic beliefs are associated with science and that is why regimes that have abolished religion, Nazism and Communism have gone the furthest with their eugenic beliefs and programs.


Prop 8 passed in a state that is true blue and that easily elected President Obama. Upholding of traditional marriage has been voted on and passed in a number of states regardless of political bent. President Obama and the Democratic majority did not overturn DODT, did not attempt to legalize gay marriage and in fact are still parties to lawsuits fighting against gay marriage. President Obama's position on gay marriage is unchanged. As was noted by others, the Republican Governor didn't defend prop 8, a Republican appointed judge overturned prop 8, and half the attorneys arguing against prop 8 were Republican.

It isn't so cartoonish as your thinking makes it.


No what left wingers do is take the money, give lip service, pass on laws, and then throw out some lame attempt to address it and the dream act as amendments in a bill that they know won't pass with them in it. Then they can craft those wonderful boogiemen that people with limited thinking will hand over campaign donations to defeat. They've played you like a fiddle.


Nostalgia sucks. This absolutely happened in the past. Look at what campaign literature used to allege about candidates. Today is always tame in comparison.


I keep asking myself what you are as well.


The fuck defense is quite an interesting thought experiment.

I didn't mention it because no one claimed it was impossible for Jerry Brown to undertake such actions or that Jerry Brown being a Democrat automatically made him a homophobe. Those points were made about Republicans and thus that is why those examples were cited to refute that point.

Thanks for the info though.
