One Cannot Vote Democrat....

[PoliticalChic]

…and be considered an American.


1. I base that on a number of things, such as these views becoming Democrat mainstream:

"Meet the New Democratic Socialists, Same as the Old Democratic Socialists!

...a message to the Democratic Establishment that the base of the party is moving decidedly more towards “Democratic socialism.” The only problem is that it seems nobody can get any specific answers on what this new “Democratic Socialism” actually is and how it differs from plain, run of the mill, failed socialism. Not even liberals can decide.

Abolish profit

Abolish prisons

Abolish cash bail

Abolish borders"
Meet the New Democratic Socialists, Same as the Old Democratic Socialists!


This is what you stand for when you vote Democrat.




2. But most important is the Democrat/Liberal anti-American war on free speech.

“Free speech as we’ve been chronicling here at LI for ages has come under heightened attack in recent years, particularly on our nation’s college campuses. We’ve seen poll after poll in which large swaths of young Americans (mostly, but not exclusively, leftists) believe that speech should be more restricted.

We’ve heard politicians argue that “hate speech” is not protected by the First Amendment, and we’ve seen Yale students organize a petition to repeal the First Amendment. We’ve heard that words are “violent,” and we’ve heard that “offensive,” “triggering,” and “hurtful” speech—speech someone in ear-shot hears and feels offended, triggered, or hurt by—should be unceremoniously restricted or even banned.” Who's afraid of the 1st Amendment?





3. We've been warned:

“Fascism may be so gradual in the United States that most voters will not be aware of its existence. The true Fascist leaders will not be present imitators of German Fuhrer and Italian condottieri, prancing in silver shirts. They will be judicious, black-frocked gentlemen; graduates of the best universities; disciples of Nicholas Murray Butler and Walter Lippmann.”

1) I'm guessing nordic countries are failing. Denmark best country for business.

2) Who is waging war on first amendment?

3) Trump is already early-stage Mussolini

What a truly stupid post.

You must vote Democrat, huh?

You cant backup your posts? Only insults?

That's her M.O. She's the queen of cut and paste from questionable sources. She puts up these wall of text posts and if anyone challenges any point of it, she comes out with the personal attacks.

Let's cut to the chase.....

The premise is very simple: if you oppose free speech you are not an American as far as our memorializing documents.
It is the defining principle of Americanism.



If you have an argument in opposition to this premise, make it.

7. Der Völkischer Beobachter ….I mean the NYTimes, is revealed as anti-free speech:

“… in a display of quite startling deliberate obtuseness suggests that protecting unpopular, even vile and reprehensible speech, is no longer desirable. The extension of this viewpoint is clear and laughably illogical: only approved and acceptable speech needs First Amendment protection.



The undermining of our First Amendment protections doesn’t stop with a Supreme Court justice and the formerly most-respected newspaper in the country.

The ACLU has recently announced that it will become overtly active in politics, including in elections, and as an apparent extension of the ACLU’s politicization, they are also wavering on free speech.

Apparently, they will be “weighing” their interest in protecting First Amendment rights against their commitment to “social justice.” The ACLU, who should be defending individual rights and liberties, have instead committed not to actual justice under the law but to “social justice.” Social justice, of course, has nothing at all to do with justice.”

Soooo….mainstream Democrat/Liberal doctrine is against profit, borders, prisons…..and free speech.


You votin’ for that???
Americans aren't.


Democrats are.

8. Here is the communist-inspired ACLU hedging on free speech:

“The American Civil Liberties Union will weigh its interest in protecting the First Amendment against its other commitments to social justice, racial equality, and women’s rights, given the possibility that offensive speech might undermine ACLU goals.

“Our defense of speech may have a greater or lesser harmful impact on the equality and justice work to which we are also committed,” wrote ACLU staffers in a confidential memo obtained by former board member Wendy Kaminer.

[WHAT?????]



. . . . It’s hard to see this as anything other than a cowardly retreat from a full-throated defense of the First Amendment. Moving forward, when deciding whether to take a free speech case, the organization will consider “factors such as the (present and historical) context of the proposed speech; the potential effect on marginalized communities; the extent to which the speech may assist in advancing the goals of white supremacists or others whose views are contrary to our values; and the structural and power inequalities in the community in which the speech will occur.”

The memo also makes clear that the ACLU has zero interest in defending First Amendment rights in conjunction with Second Amendment rights. If controversial speakers intend to carry weapons, the ACLU “will generally not represent them.”



The ACLU's capitulation to the anti-speech left should serve as a wake up call for true liberals. What has taken place on campus over the last decade does matter, and though the scope of the problem is frequently overstated, we should all be concerned when the nation's premiere civil liberties organization is increasingly afraid of defending the First Amendment—not because the Trump administration scares them, but because college students do.” Leaked Internal Memo Reveals the ACLU Is Wavering on Free Speech



Vote Democrat, and you vote for abridging free speech.....against the Constitution.
Exactly as any other Fascist would.

9. Soooo.....they no longer endorse free speech....
They used to be Liberals.....now they are Fascists.



Prescient:

”Fascism will come at the hands of perfectly authentic Americans, as violently against Hitler and Mussolini as the next one, but who are convinced that the present economic system is washed up and that the present political system in America has outlived its usefulness and who wish to commit this country to the rule of the bureaucratic state; interfering in the affairs of the states and cities; taking part in the management of industry and finance and agriculture; assuming the role of great national banker and investor, borrowing billions every year and spending them on all sorts of projects through which such a government can paralyze opposition and command public support; marshaling great armies and navies at crushing costs to support the industry of war and preparation for war which will become our greatest industry; and adding to all this the most romantic adventures in global planning, regeneration, and domination all to be done under the authority of a powerfully centralized government in which the executive will hold in effect all the powers with Congress reduced to the role of a debating society.

There is your fascist. And the sooner America realizes this dreadful fact the sooner it will arm itself to make an end of American fascism masquerading under the guise of the champion of democracy. "As We Go Marching: A Biting Indictment of the Coming of Domestic Fascism in America,"
by John T. Flynn


BTW, Flynn wrote this in 1944.

No one believes that Trump is anti-free speech.....just as no one believes you are anything but a dunce.



On the other hand, I can prove a full-court press against free speech by the house organ of Democrats/Liberals.....

"The Citizens United campaign finance case, for instance, was decided on free-speech grounds, with the five-justice conservative majority ruling that the First Amendment protects unlimited campaign spending by corporations. The government, the majority said, has no business regulating political speech.

“The left was once not just on board but leading in supporting the broadest First Amendment protections,” said Floyd Abrams, a prominent First Amendment lawyer and a supporter of broad free-speech rights. “Now the progressive community is at least skeptical and sometimes distraught at the level of First Amendment protection which is being afforded in cases brought by litigants on the right.”

Many on the left have traded an absolutist commitment to free speech for one sensitive to the harms it can inflict."
How Conservatives Weaponized the First Amendment





And this bit of instruction for you, you incipient-Fascist:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.



Liberals/Democrats: keep your filthy paws off my Constitution!
