The impeachment trial has started today! Yay!

But, today, let’s go over the philosophy the Left has about Conservatives, Republicans and Trump voters. This article from the L.A. Times pretty much sums it up.

Column: What can you do about the Trumpites next door?

By VIRGINIA HEFFERNAN

Oh, heck no. The Trumpites next door to our pandemic getaway, who seem as devoted to the ex-president as you can get without being Q fans, just plowed our driveway without being asked and did a great job.

How am I going to resist demands for unity in the face of this act of aggressive niceness?

• We now see that this gal is obviously an elite. She is at a “pandemic getaway”. Must be nice to be so rich and be too arrogant to realize it is kind of off-putting.
• She admits that unity is not a thing.
• When did niceness become aggressive?

 

Of course, on some level, I realize I owe them thanks — and, man, it really looks like the guy back-dragged the driveway like a pro — but how much thanks?

These neighbors are staunch partisans of blue lives, and there aren’t a lot of anything other than white lives in the neighborhood.

• How much thanks? How about thanks enough deserving of one who plowed your driveway?
• They like cops? This is a reason to force yourself to dislike them and not give them thanks for doing you a favor?
• If this gal is such a diversity nut, why is she living in an all white neighborhood?
• And how does she know how these people would treat black neighbors? She doesn’t even know their names.

 

This is also kind of weird. Back in the city, people don’t sweep other people’s walkways for nothing.

Maybe it’s like what Eddie Murphy discovered in that old “Saturday Night Live” sketch “White Like Me.” He goes undercover in white makeup and finds that when white people are among their own, they pop free champagne and live the high life. As Murphy puts it: “Slowly I began to realize that when white people are alone, they give things to each other. For free.”

This is the stupidest thing in the article. OK, that’s a lie. Eddie Murphy’s SNL skit was comedy. It was parody. It is satire. It is funny.

• It makes fun of how blacks think of how whites look and act.
• It makes fun of prejudice. On both sides.
• It’s not real. It’s a joke.

 

The idiocy of this shows how the Left has no sense of humor whatsoever.

 

Hezbollah, the Shiite Islamist political party in Lebanon, also gives things away for free. The favors Hezbollah does for people in the cities Tyre and Sidon probably don’t involve snowplows, but, like other mafias, Hezbollah tends to its own — the Shiite sick, elderly and hungry. They offer protection and hospitality and win loyalty that way. And they also demand devotion to their brutal, us-versus-them anti-Sunni cause. Some of us are family, the favors say; the rest are infidels.

The same is true with Louis Farrakhan, who currently helms the Nation of Islam. While the Southern Poverty Law Center classifies him as a dangerous anti-Semite, much of his flock says he’s just a little screwy and unfailingly magnanimous. To them.

Huh? So, the Trump supporters next door are like Hezbollah and Louis Farrakhan because they cleaned the snow off your driveway? This is lady has been made nuts because the Trump Derangement Syndrome made her brain spongy.

When someone helps you when you’re down, or snowed in, it’s almost impossible to regard them as a blight on the world. In fact, you’re more likely to be overwhelmed with gratitude and convinced of the person’s inherent goodness.

Yeah, that’s how it should be.

You might end up like the upper-middle-class family I stayed with in France as a teenager. They did not attend a citywide celebration for the 100th birthday of Charles de Gaulle, the war hero who orchestrated the liberation of his country from Nazi Germany in 1944. They did have several portraits of Philippe Pétain, Nazi collaborator, on their wall.

When I screwed up the courage to ask how it was for them during the occupation, the lady of the house replied, “We were happy because the Nazis were very polis.” I didn’t know the word, so I excused myself to consult a French-English dictionary. I was in tears when I found the entry: “polite.”

Couple of things here.

First, she stayed with an upper-middle-class family in France? She has a winter home? Can you guys smell the elitism in this bitch? So far while reading this article, I don’t get that the Trump people are bad. In fact, all we know about them is that they plowed her driveway and they voted for Trump. But, what I am getting out of this article is that the writer, VIRGINIA HEFFERNAN, is an elitist, snobby, spoiled, unappreciative, condescending bitch.

And this also says something about the news media in general. You’ve got to assume that this article was read by several people at the L.A. Times including “fact checkers”, associate editors and the papers editor. None of these people who read this article said, “Hey, Virginia, you kind of sound like an an elitist, snobby, spoiled, unappreciative, condescending bitch.”

You know why no one at the L.A. Times said? Because they are all elitist, snobby, spoiled, unappreciative, condescending bitches. No wonder regular people do not trust the media.

My second point forces me to foreshadow my conclusion to this story. Her “polis” story is bullshit.

My grandparents and father were in Germany during World War II. The Nazis were hardly polite. If you are walking down the street and see an SS troop walking, you cross the street. If the SS visited, you were dead. They were not polite.

And the Nazis were not polite to the French. The Nazis invaded France. The overthrew the government. They forced the population to fight in the war. They burned and destroyed their cities.

I’m just beginning to think this gal had a deadline, ran late because she was skiing in Aspen and made some shit up to meet her deadline. She knew if she could it easily published by saying how bad Trump people are.

So when I accept generosity from my pandemic neighbors, acknowledging the legitimate kindness with a wave or a plate of cookies, am I also sealing us in as fellow travelers who are very polis to each other but not so much to “them”?

Loving your neighbor is evidently much easier when your neighborhood is full of people just like you.

This is this whole collective thing that the socialist media embraces. The Left always puts people into buckets and those buckets have preset assumptions. All Trump supporters are racist, xenophobic, misogynist, bigots that are Nazis. This is the very definition of bigotry.

Definition: A bigot is a person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles, or identities that are different from his or her own. Mostly, the person’s opinions are based on prejudice.

This is why Conservatives can’t unite with the Left. We don’t group people together. We believe in individuality. If I meet a black guy and he turns out to be an a-hole, I don’t think that all black people are a-holes. I think that individual black guy is an a-hole.

I’ll even go a step further: I do not see that black guy as a black guy. He’s just a guy. That’s why I hate those hyphens people use for identity. You’re either an American or not. You know where I earned that? From a black guy who told me he didn’t want to be referred to as an African-American (because he was from the Caribbean). He referred to himself as an American.

What do we do about the Trumpites around us? Like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), who spoke eloquently this week about her terrifying experience during the insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6, Americans are expected to forgive and forget before we’ve even stitched up our wounds. Or gotten our vaccines against the pandemic that former President Trump utterly failed to mitigate.

My neighbors supported a man who showed near-murderous contempt for the majority of Americans. They kept him in business with their support.

When you say that AOC is eloquent, you’re probably an idiot. That broad can’t get through a sentence without saying “like” eight times.

Also, AOC’s “terrifying experience” has been debunked. She wasn’t even at the Capitol building during the riot. Again, this is another reason this article cannot be taken seriously.

Finally, why is Trump always being blamed for this pandemic? And not just blamed  for his handling of it, which no one in the world handled well, but being called a murderer? No one blames China. No one blames the Left-wing governors who shipped old folks infected with COVID back into retirement homes and then lied about the number died. I don’t see anyone blaming the WHO for lying about how the disease was transmitted.

Trump:

• Closed travel from China which Dems called xenophobic.
• Mentioned COVID as a threat during the State of the Union speech, which Nancy Pelosi tore up.
• Sent PPE, respirators, ventilators and hospital ships to struggling states, which he was thanked for.
• Sent monetary aid and tax breaks to small businesses, which Congress fought against.
• Through Operation Warp Speed, had two, and now three, vaccines developed in record, which Dems said they wouldn’t take.

 

I think Trump did as good a job as can be expected and far better than any other government in the world. Let’s face it, with our current death toll (which the CDC admits is exaggerated), we are currently between 12 nd 15 in deaths per 1 million.

You might not like how Trump handled the pandemic, there are things I didn’t like, but to call him a mass murderer or think he should be convicted of murder is being myopic.

But the plowing.

On Jan. 6, after the insurrection (I’d actually call it a riot), Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) issued an aw-shucks plea for all Americans to love their neighbors. The United States, he said, “isn’t Hatfields and McCoys, this blood feud forever.” And, he added, “You can’t hate someone who shovels your driveway.”

At the time, I seethed; the Capitol had just been desecrated. But maybe my neighbor heard Sasse and was determined to make a bid for reconciliation.

When Ben Sasse made that statement, he was talking about all the riots over the last year. That the Left and the Right need to stop the violence and the fighting. This gal ignores the Leftist organizations, BLM and Antifa, that caused $2-$3 billion dollars of damage over the summer. She ignoring the fact that Antifa was protesting, with the threat of rioting, this past weekend in Washington D.C. If it weren’t for the National Guard, Washington D.C. would have burned. He was condemning all violent groups.

But she doesn’t see that. It’s only about January 6.

I’m going to get more into this in the next section, but why would a Trump supporter, who had nothing to do with the Capitol riot, try to reconcile with a Leftist?

So here’s my response to my plowed driveway, for now. Politely, but not profusely, I’ll acknowledge the Sassian move. With a wave and a thanks, a minimal start on building back trust. I’m not ready to knock on the door with a covered dish yet.

I also can’t give my neighbors absolution; it’s not mine to give. Free driveway work, as nice as it is, is just not the same currency as justice and truth. To pretend it is would be to lie, and they probably aren’t looking for absolution anyway.

But I can offer a standing invitation to make amends. Not with a snowplow but by recognizing the truth about the Trump administration and, more important, by working for justice for all those whom the administration harmed. Only when we work shoulder to shoulder to repair the damage of the last four years will we even begin to dig out of this storm.

This bitch is insane. She has taken all of the Left’s stance that all Conservatives are evil and need to be purged. That we need to come to their side on bended need and then…maybe we’ll be forgiven.

Here’s the secret: I think her beliefs and values are evil and bad. I see her as a bigot and a racist. Her opinion is irrelevant of me are irrelevant.

In fact, I would be thrilled to know she hated me. If Satan came up from Hell, all muscly, with his pitch fork and fire blowing out his ears and ass and said he hated me and threatened my gold fish, I’d be good with it. I can’t unite with this even to keep peace.

Remember this: Submission is not promoting peace. Embracing tyranny is not embracing peace.

We are going to see a lot more articles like this.
