20/20 in 2020 (part 2) - The Destructive Left

No Reason

You just can't reason with the Bleedin' Heart Blame everything on Trump Brigade. They think they care more than the rest of us do and they are going to tell us so. "If you support Trump, then you are evil." No, some of us are more judicious about how we pick and choose our battles. I'm sick and tired of Bleeding Hearts telling me I don't care because I don't fall all over myself for the Pop Culture Meme of the day. Whatever is on the mainstream television news that day.

Hey Democrats you whine about Wage Disparity. The notorious rich people in the country (Bezos, Gates, Buffett, the Walton Family, 90% of Hollyweird,,, and I can go on) are all big contributors to your party.

You whine about the systemic injustice of the police force. Most of the people pushing the violence are white. They are anarchist. They believe in NO GOVERNMENT. They are out here assaulting people and tearing up the inner cities which are heavily populated by minorities. They don't care about Minorities. Minorities are just a tool to be used for their crazy beliefs... a means to an end.

You think you are the protectors against the virus and Trump has done everything wrong. It's easy as hell to second guess the President. Give us specifics about what you would have done differently. Give us specifics about who has done better. You are long on pissing and moaning and short on the reality of the situation. You really don't have a clue.

You can be constructive or destructive in this life. Grow up, be mature, be productive, make things happen. Stop describing how virtuous you are and start actually trying to be virtuous. Actions always speak louder than words.

 

Liberal Media Privilege

At the Press Conference on September 10th, there was a moment during the President's press conference where ABC News correspondent Jonathan Karl, who so obviously has a personal agenda and could care less about facts, starts out by calling the President a Liar (‘Why Did You Lie to the American People?’) and then proceeds to ask why the American people should trust him. I just want to ask why the American people should trust Mr. Karl or so many of the others in that room (Jim Acosta I'm looking at you) who so obviously are trying to shape opinion before having the facts. One can see these people's body language. That totally negative body language is 180 degrees opposite of what was offered to the last President. Can you at least try to be professional and show some civility.

Over the past several months, since they pushed all of this "Social Justice" narrative, they have been pushing another narrative called "White Privilege." According to them all Caucasians are naturally racist and don't understand it. Somehow we were all born with a silver spoon in our mouths and we need to wake up every morning and apologize for our "White" status. Personally, I find such a notion to be repulsive. I am a victim of my life. We are all victims of something in life. If I succumb to my weaknesses and vulnerabilities, then I am doomed to fail at whatever endeavors I pursue.We can all point fingers and say that "I have failed because of someone else."... I am absolved of any failures. It is always someone else's fault.

True Privilege status is the Mainstream/Lamestream Corporate Media Press Corps. These folks have a pretty high standard of living. These folks aren't physically sweating it out to earn a buck. They get to travel around and follow a story. They are given an opportunity to be the eyes and ears for their community. With that they have a responsibility to get the story correct, but so many times they choose to present information through their own personal prism to the point where they neglect the events and only report their personal opinion and/or the narrative of the corporate entity they represent.

Mr. Karl himself is the President of the White House Press Correspondents Association. He has taken it upon himself to be an attack dog against President Trump. Constantly he misrepresents what someone has said before asking a question, trying to frame the narrative, instead of simply asking a question. He is not an objective reporter. He has written several negative opinion pieces against the President -- like in the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal. The man took it upon himself to ban a reporter from the White House Press briefings back in March, because she showed up for briefings after he took it upon himself to constantly omit her when Press Corps attendance was limited after the Pandemic status was officially sanctioned. Her name is Chanel Rion and she is a reporter for One America News. 

Legacy Media representatives, like Mr. Karl, have attempted to shut down New Media Representatives at every turn and create barriers to entry to make it difficult for them to exist. Mr. Karl, you need to get on your knees and beg for forgiveness for your arrogance related to your status as a media correspondent/journalist, you have selfishly represented your own personal interests. Your personal agenda does nothing for the average American citizen.

 

The Destructive Left

The Trump deranged Leftists are always short on specifics about why they hate the President. They rarely, if ever, will give you a cogent-tangible reason. Most of the bleeding hearts are truly caring, compassionate people. They talk about Peace and love and understanding, but the rhetoric I have seen against the President, Conservatives, and Republicans does not match those sentiments  Their literal venom and vitriolic animosity has emboldened Anarchists to literally set cities on fire. 

They call President Trump a narcissist, while dismissing the last President spying on Trump's 2016 campaign. Former President Obama's administration used the FBI and intelligence to railroad people like Carter Page, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, and others, to the point of bankruptcy through the justice system, and cost them their livelihoods. Remember that Richard Nixon was forced from office for less. If a Republican had done anything like what the Obama administration did, they would already be in jail.

You reap what you sow. It's hard to build things and so easy to tear them down. Think about building a house. Think about building a skyscraper like the Twin Towers that used to stand in New York. Think about building a stadium like those new multi-billion dollar stadiums in Los Angeles and  Las Vegas. It takes months to years to build great structures, but it only takes minutes to tear them down. When people get angry they get destructive. They don't think about the consequences of their anger until it is too late and then they have to deal with the aftermath of their destruction. It is time to reflect on your anger. Take a deep breath. What is causing your anger?  Is your destructive impulse going to be worth the aftermath?
