1. With eyes on the New Year, and the next administration in my heart, I have the fondest hopes for a rebirth of liberty in America.
a. A reminder: America was founded as a bastion of freedom of religion...and not any bogus 'freedom from religion.'
b. Before using terms such as 'racism,' or 'homophobia' or whatever term the Left comes up with, remember what liberty means: thinking ill of anyone or anything is not a crime, but forcing everyone to participate in some peoples' delusions is.
2. The only doctrines that force individual to think in some officially acceptable way are Fascist, Communist, Nazi, Liberal or Progressive.
The view can be found starting with the provenance of the doctrines above, the French Revolution.
a. And so, we find the totalitarianism of reason: “We must reason about all things,” and anyone who ‘refuses to seek out the truth’ thereby renounces his human nature and “should be treated by the rest of his species as a wild beast.” So, once ‘truth’ is determined, anyone who doesn’t accept it was “either insane or wicked and morally evil.” It is not the individual who has the “ right to decide about the nature of right and wrong,” but only “the human race,” expressed as the general will." Himmelfarb, “The Roads to Modernity,” p. 167-68
Robespierre: We must exterminate all our enemies.
In every iteration of collectivism....this is the view, and the aim.
3. And, the revolution that arose from the French Revolution....
"The actual insurrection--the Bolshevik Revolution--began on the morning of November 6 (October 24) 1917, when Kerensky ordered the Bolshevik press closed."
The Russian Revolution and the Soviet Union Union
The Russian Revolution and the Soviet Union Union
In November/December, the penal system was re-written to include "enemy of the people."
...and, ex-post facto, the Bolsheviks arrested and exterminated all those 'enemies of the people.'
Think collectively or die!
4. In short, for there to be liberty.....it is behavior that determines illegality, not 'thought crimes.'
".... antidiscrimination laws across America have subverted freedom of religion and freedom of speech in a bid to give homosexuals and transgenders “freedom from being offended.”
The absurdity of this new freedom should be obvious. There probably isn’t an opinion in existence that couldn’t offend somebody." What Will Happen to Religious Freedom?
Has this election put a stop to Liberal Fascism....or merely a pause?
