What Happens When The Left’s Favorite ‘oppressed’ Groups Turn Against Each Other?
Posted by IT CommentatorSep 7
It would appear that The Left’s strategy of Balkanizing America by breaking it down into allegedly victimized special interest groups that compete for preferential treatment is (predictably) blowing up in its face, as each “oppressed” clan tries to out-snivel the others:
July 31, 2007 — Three veteran workers at the state’s Human Rights Division have lobbed federal lawsuits at the agency, charging a bizarre pattern of discrimination that hurts women and blacks in favor of gay white menhttp://www.nypost.com/seven/07312007/new…
Hmm, apparently they didn’t get the Left’s memo – it’s the white hetero Christian male that is the source of all evil in the world, and the oppresed groups must work together to destroy him – right libs?
Vaughn,
I happen to be a white, male, heterosexual and would like to ask when exactly I was worshipped? Would it be when I asked for financial aid for my education and was told, “If you were a minority you would qualify.” Would it be when I was attending “mandetory fun” functions at my job celebrating “Black/Hispanic/Womans/Anything except white male history” month? Would it be when some massive protest was held because some white guy went to jail? (obviously not since that never happens)
I admit white males have had it good historically. Doesn’t mean I need to recieve reverse discrimination now. I never held anyone down. I wasn’t even born by the time the tides had turned on your average male WASP. I’m just some guy. You want to talk equality, then genuinely treat everyone 100% equal.
(Side note: I have no problem with honoring other culture sub-groups, and etc. I have a problem with everyone telling me I’m the one who is handed everything and in reality I’m handed nothing and my lack of being minority prevents me from a number of benfits.)
In order to convince Americans to vote for big-government, high-tax liberal policies they must be convinced that big-government, high-tax liberal policies are what they need. They must be convinced that they cannot do without these policies and that those who would tell them that they can do without such policies don’t really care about them. Splitting us into “specialized little groups of victims” then promising the moon to each and every one has worked quite well for them in the past. Are these group starting to realize that at times THEY are really Peter and the other group is Paul?
It doesn’t stop at race and sexual orientation. The top 50% of wage earners are now paying 96.7% of federal income tax. In this country, we are now more polarized than ever before.
Ask not what can you do for your country, but what can my country give me today (based on my race, disability, pyschiatric condition, etc.).
I am a “white, hetero, Christian male”, and a liberal.
I won’t be supporting my own destruction.
you know if liberals would just go to say Canada or France we wouldn’t have these problems
You’re actually looking for an even playing field debate with the liberals???
Good luck.
It’s a confusing situation. Just wait what happens to the abortion debate if the “gay gene” is ever discovered!
I’m trying to find some sort of minority for myself to join so that I dont feel left out.It appears that the central idea to this wave of correctness and ‘rights’ is that a group of people are OK , but another group is not ok.I basically hate everyone,apart from the individuals who are my friends,and I’m willing to give anyone the benefit of any doubt when I first meet them. I don’t need any advice on this,particularly from a group of people who think they know better than anyone else.Like all people , I make up my own mind .
In the end, it will be the biggest dog will devour the rest and then the biggest dog will be eaten by his own ideology, as one who speaks out of both sides of their mouths will find that they were pawns and not to be trusted.
Answer: I’m waiting for their Hispandering and Afro-Victimizing to conflict to the point of critical liberal MESS!
Perfect!
Love the avatar!
Hey Jim…and the dems jumping over each other to stab themselves in the back isnt political infighting?
Hows that canned heat youre drinking>
The left reads the sweet sounding legislation they want to pass, pat themselves on the back for a job well done and let ‘er rip, always ignoring the laws of unintended consequences and good old human nature. Tout benefits, ignore costs. Minimum wage laws are another example… always a photo op with clueless politicians smiling and slapping backs, nothing when the pink slips get issued.
Good question, Dead Marxist!
It has to be just a matter of time until different selfish interest groups, united in liberalism, have conflict with each other.
We saw Hillary, single-handledly set the “women’s lib” movement back 20 years; Hillary organized and strategized the physical attacks, the reputation attacks and the overall assault on victims of Billy Boy. By attacking Paula Jones, to support their brethren in socialism, the public saw “women’s lib” as another socialist partner, corrupted by the disease and hypocrisy, evidenced in every single liberal and “selfish interest” group, throughout the USA.
Watching sattellites of the socialist brotherhood, collide and disintegrate is what I consider “high end” entertainment. Watching liberals tear each other apart is my kind of amusement.
Pass the popcorn, please, Dead Marxist!
What you state in there, is one of the main reasons I HATE liberalism! Catering to and victimizing special interest and minority groups! Especially how a lot of liberals act like White Christians are the source of all evil, greed and oppression in the world.
It sounds to me like, as a member of a group called white hetro Christian males, you feel like you’re a member of an oppressed group.
We liberals do NOT think the white, heterosexual Christian male is the source of all evil in the world. Unfortunately, they’ve been worshipped so long that to simply suggest that other people have equal rights and equal value to them FEELS like that to some of them.
are you talking about the Iraqi’s? They are already against each other. remember we are policing a civil war. oh wait your talking about gay stuff.
You know why they didn’t get that memo? It was never sent. Liberals aren’t in favor of destroying any Americans, regardless of race, gender or religion. What liberals want is for all Americans to have the same rights and opportunities as every other American. Some liberals may be more extreme in what this means than others, but as a general statement of political philosophy, its a lot better and more American than “I’ve got mine, hands off.”
all i hear is a bunch of blubbering partisan nonesense:
oohhhh, the libs! the libs! omg!
seriously. shut up. stop jading what little intelligent political thought is left.
