The intense blowback against Trump’s efforts to restore law and order rams home the point that it is a deliberate choice by progressives to preserve lawlessness in their cities. When you think about it, the strategy seems to have paid off, if all you care about is power, since progressives have a generational stranglehold on the cities with the worst crime.

Progressives replaced the old idea of divinely originated virtue with a new ethical system: anything goes between “consenting adults” and “your rights end where my nose begins” In other words, unless you directly hurt someone else, your values are just as valid as anyone else’s. This ethical construct often goes by the pseudonym “tolerance” or post-modernism.
Battle For the American Mind, by Pete Hegseth with David Goodwin, pg.172
A 2022 report by the Heritage Foundation, “The Blue City Murder Problem,” found that 27 of the top 30 cities with the highest homicide rates were run by Democrats. … With their dehumanizing rhetoric and soft-on-crime policies, progressives create permission structures that excuse crime and violence, remove accountability, and blur the distinction between right and wrong.

The value of hatred is right and good in the Marxist ethical code as long as it is directed toward the property owners, the bourgeoisie. Hatred is needed to fuel the clash between proletariat and the bourgeoisie. To keep their followers in perpetual revolutionary mind-set, Marxist leaders, such as Mao Tse-tung, Joseph Stalin, Fidel Castro, and Kim Jong-Eun, decades after their respective revolutions would down, dressed in military garb and peppered their speeches with revolutionary language. Marxism draws its inspiration from the hope of a more harmonious future but draws its energy from the rehearsal of grievances against the bourgeoisie.

Reams of data have shown how the Johnson administration’s 1964 introduction of new welfare programs, many specifically designed to address black poverty, decimated marriage in the black community. While marriage rates have declined among all ethnicities, black families have been by far the hardest hit. Today, nearly half of black men and women have never married by age forty—the highest percentage of any ethnic group by a full 19 points. Because of that, almost 70 percent of black children are born to single mothers, and nearly 40 percent of women who get abortions are black, even though African Americans are only 12 percent of the population. Yet more than half of Americans who receive food assistance (SNAP), income supplements (TANF), and rental subsidies are black.

Three separate thought-provoking statements on the 2015 Documentary, AGENDA 2: Masters of Deceit:
The UN Charter was written by Communist Alger Hiss.
Agenda 21 is a blueprint for constructing a New World Order. It is vital people grasp this. (Statement by Maurice Strong, environmentalist.)
In 1995 communists took over the AFL-CIO. Unions vote Democrat, dictate policies. The Democrat party is run by communists.
T]he United States is no longer a serious nation. America not only no longer protects families, but it also actively keeps parents from protecting their children. America no longer seeks to create a framework for prosperity but rather burdens citizens with crippling inflation and stultifying costs to battle a fictional problem. America no longer seeks to defend herself from invasion or her citizens from vicious, violent criminals. When a nation stops protecting its borders, citizens, and prosperity, it ceases to have the right to be called serious.
Vince Coyner, Under the Democrats’ Rule, America Has Become A Failed State
Blacks vote overwhelmingly for liberal Democrats and yet no group has suffered more from the way liberal Democrats among politicians and judges have let violent criminals walk the streets. No group has lost more from the dumbing down of public schools than blacks, as liberal propaganda has replaced academic study.
Thomas Sowell
For Democrats, overturning the Second Amendment and outlawing the private possession of guns by Americans is the default position they run to every time gun violence strikes a community. For them it’s the easy answer. It's much easier than to have to really put forth the hard work necessary to come up with genuine solutions to the problem of gun violence in America.
By just blaming guns and demanding bans and other legislation, they don’t have to work very hard. They can then run back to their constituents and claim to have taken action to stop school shootings and other gun violence. It's a false declaration since the problem of gun violence will continue as long as they continue to promote a sick and depraved society, which is truly the root cause of all the violence and dysfunction in America.

The new Dutch broadcasting network [after the German invasion in 1940] then set to the task of providing a steady stream of information from the Allies to the occupied people of the Netherlands. The German had anticipated the establishment of such a communication tool by the Allies and issued the “Measure for the Protection of the Dutch Population Against Untrue Information.” With this act, the occupied people would be kept away from “false news” and given information they could trust from officially sanctioned pro-Nazi stations broadcasting from the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, and Czechoslovakia. Anyone caught listening to a unsanctioned station, particularly the BBC and Radio Oranje, would be severely punished.

No one can speak of evil without mentioning its attraction to the Democrat Party, which is now the party of official racism in America. Political evil is a contagion of psychological immaturity, self-delusion, and counterfeit justification, and its virus has spread throughout America's liberal ruling class. Its influence has scoured our nation of its fundamental values, and leftists are intent on creating a state apparatus that facilitates the separation of children from their parents, criminals from justice, and citizens from the Bill of Rights. This is a call to Marxist socialism that has no past and no possibility of a future. This is evil come to do business with the Democrat Party, and it is evil on a national scale. Civilization must protect the weakest, but leftist ideology targets and crushes those who are unable to resist the powerful forces of state coercion. There is no civilization on the far side of Marxism.
Phillip Ahlrich, “Liberalism and the Problem of Evil”
The Left today has badly misappropriated the word “equity,” using it to mean equality of outcome—something to be achieved through affirmative action and economic redistribution. But real equity, in the old sense, cannot be given. Real equity requires the old fashioned virtues. It is inextricable from full ownership of your own course in life.
Matt Rosenberg, Spiraling Violence in Chicago: Causes and Solutions
Like the Democratic Party historically, the left is racist. And it is so in precisely the way the word was always used — the Left believes in black inferiority. That is why leftists advocate lowering standards for blacks. That is why they advocate policies that always result in more blacks dying at the hands of other blacks. That is why they believe the state must take care of blacks more than any other group. That is why left-wing policies, from the Great Society to today, have destroyed so much of black life, especially its family life — and they don’t care.
Dennis Prager, A Brief Guide to Leftist Destruction.
In place of real democracy American totalitarians in the Democrat party and the technocratic elite in the Republican party want a managed society headed by bureaucrats and a bureaucracy whose universal vision of societal governance and order is disseminated to the local apparatuses of the government writ small: school boards, universities, businesses, etc. Hence the strong-arm tactics to get local municipalities, businesses, and schools across the country to comply with new federal and state government dictates. Any holdouts will be penalized into conformity. So much for democracy.
Paul Krause, Destroying Democracy by ‘Saving Democracy’
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
Dwight D. Eisenhower, 3/6/56.
