January 20th was not just momentous for those of us on the Right, and for America....but it removes barriers for those of you on the Left, as well!
1. OK, Liberals, Democrat voters.....he's gone....you are now free to critically examine the Left's propaganda without suffering the slings and arrows of verbal....and even physical...attacks.
You're not gonna have to defend and deflect against the tired old "racist" charges. And, it's no longer gonna validate what a 'good person' you are by voting for brown skin.
Now...it's about knowledge, and about policies.
Finally....after 8 long years, you may avail yourselves of logic, experience, and plain old common sense....all anathema to media decoctions and university indoctrination.
You may now actually 'think'!!!
2. We'll begin our remediation with this, from H.L. Mencken's "Minority Report."
"If you were against the New Deal and its wholesale buying of pauper votes, then you were against Christian charity.
If you were against the gross injustices and dishonesties of the Wagner Labor Act, then you were against labor.
If you were against packing the Supreme Court, then you were in favor of letting Wall Street do it.
If you are against using Dr. Quack’s cancer salve, then you are in favor of letting Uncle Julius die.
If you are against Holy Church, or Christian Science, then you are against god.
It is an old, old argument."
See how they've been leading you by the nose?
Good! See that? 'Thinking' is like the old 'you never forget how to ride a bicycle' thing.
Most of you can get right back to it!
Try.
Re-instituting thinking is another benefit of the Trump election, you know....like American sovereignty.
3. That bogus propaganda of the last 8 years "....despite its evident fallaciousness, still widely wielded and fallen for.
If you are against trade restrictions, you are against workers and high wages. If you are against minimum wages, you are against the poor. If you are against paid family leave, then you are against families. If you are against Obamacare, then you are against affordable health care. If you are against government-set safety standards, then you are for letting people be poisoned and slaughtered indiscriminately. If you are against easy money, then you are for recessions. If you are against government-provided schooling, then you are against the education of the masses. If you are against American militarism, then you are against world peace and for evil dictators. If you are against the ‘war on drugs,’ then you are for widespread dissoluteness and dissipation. If you are against licensing requirements for hair-braiders, then you are for people having to suffer bad hairdos. The list can be extended indefinitely."

4. Now...the Leftist will say that the Right does the same thing...
"If you are for same-sex marriage, then you are against traditional families. .... If you are for cutting taxes, then you are against equality. " Ibid.
The difference is that it is the Left that owns and controls the schools, the media and the entertainment industry....none of which will be wrest from Liberal control by the Trump victory. So...it really doesn't matter if the Right tries to do the same thing....
But.....you are certainly free to think about, dispute, and disagree with any claims the Right makes without being called a racist, homophobe, misanthrope, or whatever charge du jour is available.
Go ahead.....think!
The ability will come back to you!
Now.....it's time to do your own thinking. And we on the Right encourage exactly that.
