Liberals Are Shocked To Find We’re Starting To Hate Them Right Back – Townhall

I know its theoretically wrong for a Republican candidate to smack around an annoying liberal journalist, but that still doesnt mean that I care. Our ability to care is a finite resource, and, in the vast scheme of things, millions of us have chosen to devote exactly none of it toward caring enough to engage in fussy self-flagellation because of what happened to Slappy La Brokenshades.
Sorry, not sorry.
And thats not a good thing, not by any measure, but it is a real thing. Liberals have chosen to coarsen our culture. Their validation and encouragement of raw hate, their flouting of laws (Hi leakers! Hi Hillary!) and their utter refusal to accept democratic outcomes they disapprove of have consequences. What is itself so surprising is how liberals and their media rentboyz are so surprised to find that we normals are beginning to feel about them the way they feel about us and that were starting to act on it. If you hate us, guess what?
Were going to start hating you right back.
Cue the boring moralizing and sanctimonious whimpering of the femmy, bow-tied, submissive branch of conservatism whose obsolete members were shocked to find themselves left behind by the masses to whom these geeks sinecures were not the most important objective of the movement. This is where they sniff, Were better than that, and one has to ask ,Whos we? Because, by nature, people are not better than that. They are not designed to sit back and take it while they are abused, condescended to, and told by a classless ruling class that there are now two sets of rules and guess what? the old rules are only going to be enforced against them.
We dont like the new rules Id sure prefer a society where no one was getting attacked, having walked through the ruins of a country that took that path but we normals didnt choose the new rules. The left did. It gave us Ferguson, Middlebury College, Berkeley, and Punch a Nazi which, conveniently for the left, translates as punch normals. And many of us have had personal experiences with this New Hate jobs lost, hassles, and worse. Some scumbags at an anti-Trump rally attacked my friend and horribly injured his dog. His freaking dog.
So when we start to adopt their rules, theyre shocked? Have they ever met human beings before? Its not a surprise. Its inevitable.
Team Fredocon, when they arent, Oh well, I never!-ing about Trump and his uncouth supporters, moan about the threat of Whataboutism, the tendency for people to explain their sub-optimal behavior by asking, What about so-and-so? He did the same thing and you didnt care. But while whataboutism may be a logical fallacy, its still a devastatingly compelling argument.
Humans especially normal Americans wont tolerate a double standard. But double standards apply all the time to liberals they do it and its fine, but we do it and its Armageddon. The same jerks screaming for OReillys scalp worship Bill Clinton and his drunken, perv-enabling pseudo-wife.
Or take the Trump-Russia black hole of idiocy please. Remember how Obama whispered to the Russkies, I'll have more flexibility after election and that was cool? But according to an anonymous source reading a bar tab over the phone to some credulous WaPo hack one of Trumps relatives ordered a vodka once and its TREASON TREASON TREASON!!!!!!
It certainly applies to, What about when they hit conservatives with a lock in a sock and the liberal media didnt care? Yeah, what about that? Where was the sackcloth and ashes act from Schumer, Pelosi, and Felonia von Pantsuit when our side was being bloodied and beaten? There wasnt one, because the left supports us getting bloodied and beaten. It likes the zesty zing of violence. It makes them feel big and tough and edgy, except that it starts being a heck of a lot less fun when we right-wingers start adopting the same rules and punching back.
The left is shocked that the right has now stopped caring about the old rules, since for so long the left relied on the right to subordinate its human instincts and conform to those rules even when the left ignored them. We refused to stoop to their level, and for a long time, we were better than that. But you can only have one side being better than that for so long before people get sick of being the butt of the hypocrisy.
Hypocrisy is poison not because it makes people stop knowing right from wrong, but because it makes its victims stop caring about right and wrong. Ben Jacobs got smacked around, and millions of us just dont give a damn.
We all know it was wrong for Greg Gianforte to beat up Ben Jacobs. But we also know the general attitude of the media is that when we conservatives get beat-up by leftists its perfectly excusable even laudable and thanks to the fact that Twitter is forever, we now know that Ben Jacobs himself specifically thinks its A-OK to slug conservative kids. So can someone tell me why anyone should be shocked that we conservatives refuse to devote one iota of caring to poor Bens wedgie?
This isnt a good thing. This is nothing to be proud of. We should not be happy that our society is heading toward the lowest common denominator, which itself is in freefall. But the alternative is worse. Should we allow ourselves to continue to be figuratively and literally beaten up while smiling at our own purity, secure in the knowledge that even though our dignity and freedom are stripped from us, we have not fought back? Not happening. Letting these bastards play by their own rules, and thereby crush us, seems a pretty high price to pay just to gain the approval of the smug and sanctimonious David Frums and John Kasichs of the world.
We conservatives have been warning for a long time that liberals are not going to like it when everyone plays by the new rules, and surprise! they dont. But guess what? Most of us dont like the new rules either. Yet its ridiculous to expect human beings to remain in perpetual denial about the situation they face, and to forever live under a double standard that results in their faces getting pressed into the dirt.
The hypocrisy has become intolerable, and we have stopped tolerating it. This is just the beginning of the reaction, and - make no mistake this entire situation is a bad thing. Our society is making choices that can lead only to ruin (and my new novel describing the consequences just dropped).
Lincoln mentioned the better angels of our nature also at a time when Democrats were rejecting the rule of law in order to promote their subjugation of those they considered lesser beings and the important thing to note is that angels is plural. You need two angels, not one angel and one demon. But thats what we have, and if it doesnt change well have two demons, and everyone should care about that.
