In his book, Rules for Radicals, Saul Alinsky
imparted a key piece of advice to those who want to disrupt or even destroy a
society, or a country. Alinsky said, “accuse the other side of that which you are guilty”.
Karl Marx put it this way, “accuse your enemy of what you are doing, as you are doing
it to create confusion”. The left in our country has taken this
advice to heart, and they are using the confusion they are creating to destroy
this once great nation.
The people on the left, who for 2 years have been
implementing mass lockdowns of citizens, who have been mandating masks, who are
taking away individual sovereignty by dictating what medicine every citizen
must take, who have been colluding with big tech to censor the political speech
of the citizens, who are raising taxes through the roof, and implementing a
massive regulatory state, are accusing the people on the right who oppose all of that of being
authoritarians and totalitarians.
The people on the left, who want an anti-constitutional
Federal take-over of our election system which would do away with voter ID and
implement universal mail-in ballots which would open the door to massive voter
fraud, are accusing the people on the right who oppose that lunacy of threatening our
democracy.
The people on the left who have, and still are
questioning the validity of the 2000 election, the 2004 election, the 2016
election, and have recently preemptively questioned the results of the 2022 and
2024 elections in anticipation of landslide victories for Republicans, accuse
anyone on the right who questioned the validity of the 2020 election as
threatening our democracy,
Hillary Clinton, who during the 2016 Presidential
campaign actually colluded with the Russians, and foreign spies to create the
false “Russian Dossier” which she bought and paid for to discredit and smear
Donald Trump in order to sway the 2016 election in her direction, accused
Donald Trump, based solely on the false dossier she paid for, of colluding with
the Russians to influence the 2016 election.
Hillary Clinton who promoted the “Russian Reset” as
Secretary of State in 2009, and Barack Obama who allowed Russia to annex Crimea
under his watch, and Joe Biden who just green lighted Russia to invade Ukraine,
all accused Donald Trump of being an “agent of the Russians” and a “pawn of
Putin”.
The Democratic party which was the party of slavery, the
party of Jim Crow and segregation, the party of the KKK, the party of Japanese
Internment camps, the party that blocked and filibustered at least five
separate Civil Rights bills, the party of LBJ’s “Great Society” which was
designed to make black people and minorities dependent on the government so
they would continue to vote Democrat, the party of race preferences in hiring
and college admissions, the party promoting Critical Race Theory which teaches
people to judge each other based on skin color, and that certain races are
superior to others, all of which the Republicans fought against, accuse the Republican
party of being racist. If you removed the Democrat party from the United States
history, the horrid legacy of racism in this country would all but disappear.
The people on the left who supported over a hundred
Antifa and Black Lives Matter riots in 2020 which ravaged over 50 of our major
cities, fire-bombed police stations and court houses, burned federal buildings
to the ground, killed over 30 people, sent thousands of police officers to the
hospital, caused billions of dollars of damage, accuse the right of being
insurrectionists and domestic terrorists because of one riot that was
universally denounced by people on the right.
The Democrats who have supported the defund the police
movement, and liberal DAs who let violent criminals out on low or no bail, both
of which have led to sharp increases in violent crimes and murders in our
major cities, which disproportionally victimize blacks and minorities,
accuse the right of pushing policies which threaten the lives of blacks and
minorities.
Joe Biden who has opened our southern border and has
allowed over 2 million foreign nationals from 84 different countries throughout
the world to enter our country illegally, accuses anyone who is against going
to war with Russia over Ukraine as being against border integrity and national
sovereignty.
Joe Biden who told the Ukraine President that if he
didn’t fire the prosecutor who was investigating the corruption of Hunter
Biden’s shady Ukrainian energy company Burisma, he was going to withhold a
billion dollars of US aid to Ukraine, and within 24 hours, the prosecutor was
fired, accused Donald Trump of engaging in “quid pro quo” when he simply asked
the Ukrainian President to investigate Hunter Biden’s corrupt dealings with
Burisma.
Left wing news outlets, like CNN, MSNBC, and the New York
Times, who act as propaganda arms of the left and the Democrats party, accuse
news organizations on the right, such as Fox News, of propagating fake news.
The people on the left who referred to women as “menstruators” or “birthing people”, who are promoting radical
gender theory which destroys the concept of womanhood, and allows men dressed
as women to dominate women’s college sports, be named Woman of the Year, become the woman’s all-time Jeopardy champion, take the
places of actual women in important jobs and distinguished accomplishments, accuse people
on the right of being anti-woman and engaging in a “war on women”.
Democrats who promote a government takeover of our
healthcare system which will create shortages and rationing of medicine and
medical services which would cause millions of people not to get the healthcare
they need, and cause many unnecessary deaths, accuse the Republicans who are
against this disastrous policy of not caring whether their fellow citizens get
the proper healthcare they need.
If a liberal ever accuses you of anything, it is a tacit
admission that they are engaged in the exact wrong-doing they are accusing you
of. It is the Democrats who are authoritarians, anti-democracy, racists,
insurrectionists, anti-American, anti-woman, corrupt, and are a danger to not
only our country, but our very lives. Their end game is to destroy our country,
and our culture, and rebuild it in their image where they are the ones on top,
dictating their vision on the rest of us. We cannot fall for this transparent
game that they continually try to play with us, don’t even engage with them,
because most of what comes out of their mouth are lies with evil and disastrous
intents.
