Malcolm Harris
Jesse Benn
...What ideology?
In the wake of Wednesday’s mass shooting event in
the Capitol by deranged Leftist (I know, “Is
there any other kind?”) James T.
Hodgkinson, CNN and MSNBC hosts tried to soften their rhetoric a bit and
politicians from both sides of the aisle (yeah, even Chuck Schumer) made a
point of lauding “bipartisanship,” after all, they work for the SAME global Corporate interests.
Mere days before that shooting, HuffPo writer Jesse Benn exhorted violence from the
Left in a HuffPo article in which he wrote; “There’s an inherent value in
forestalling Trump’s normalization. Violent resistance accomplishes this.”
Benn went on to call anti-violence liberals ignorant and misguided because they
refuse to accept the proven value of violent resistance.
After the shooting he doubled down on the hate with,
“What's more harmful: Putting millions already on the margins more at-risk via
draconian policies, or shooting a racist lawmaker in the hip?”
All of THIS
is to the GOOD, in my view, in that
in basically writes the GOP campaign for 2018 for them...and I’m an Independent
and no fan of the GOP, especially the GOPe, BUT of the two major Parties, at least that one HAS a real ideology (Corporatism). The
Democratic leadership are all Corporatists too, but too many followers don’t
seem to get that and simply refuse to get with that program.
As things stand now, the Democrats are saddled with
the sins and excesses of our mainstream media, a media that reports show 96% of
Americans no longer trust. NOW, they’re also saddled by their own “Progressive terrorists”
hanging around their necks.
For those reasons alone, the Democrats NEED to be
even more marginalized than they are now. Perhaps that would force that Party
into rethinking their stands and establishing a coherent ideology, one NOT based on class envy.
These are some of the vicious, delusional posts from
D.C. shooter James T. Hodgkinson;
“Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our
Democracy. It’s Time to Destroy Trump & Co.”
“Republicans Suck! Republicans Hate Women,
Minorities, Working Class People, & Most All (99%) of the People of the
Country.”
“The Opposite of a Liberal Progressive is a
Bigoted Racist that wants the Rich to get Richer at the expense of the 99%...Republicans
are so Stupid...”
In May 2015, he posted, “Congressional Republicans Hate
Americans & Should All be Voted Out of Office...”
You could easily argue that James T. Hodgkinson,
like a host of other far-Left “Progressives” had been “radicalized” by a
far-Left, horrifically divisive media.
They CAN’T
walk that back now. AND it’s NOT the marginal Jesse Benn’s and
Malcolm Harris’s, but the so-called “mainstream” hosts on CNN and MSNBC, the
Chris Matthews’, the Chris Hayes’ and Chris Cuomo’s of the world who’ve done
the bulk of this radicalizing and now they want to disavow it, when it’s
convenient.
We NEED a
new media.
Talking of MSNBC’s counter-terrorism “expert,”
Malcolm Nance recently called on ISIS to attack Trump Tower in Turkey.
He tweeted Nance an photo
of the President’s Tower in Istanbul, with the text reading, “This
is my nominee for first ISIS suicide bombing of a Trump property.”
“Trump Tower Istanbul,” he
continued. “After seeing Trump’s congrats to Erdogan for winning his RIGGED
election I’m worried our FP [foreign policy] is directed by property.”
AGAIN, the Left can’t help themselves and that SHOULD accrue as advantage to the far-Right.
I’m NOT
in sympathy with much of the far-Right, but they aren’t anti-private property
rights, pro-Socialist, and anti-Nationalist AND they aren’t conducting a violent terror campaign...perhaps
because they’re winning right now. Well, for me, at least, that’s good enough
reason NOT to marginalize that
group. I fear that the extreme Right might be a LOT better at terror and violence than the “tolerant” and “inclusive”
Left.
