The Center for American Progress Shows Why We Need to Investigate the Left

[Geee]

Big Peace:

The Center for American Progress (CAP) recently released a report demonizing conservatives and others on the political Right for standing for truth and freedom. Several outlets, including the Center for Security Policy, have reviewed the report and defended those who aren’t submitting to the jihad. The CAP report is another example of how the political left uses any opposition to it (and its allies) as “proof” of the Right’s “hate,” and at the same time baits the Right into participating in its own destruction. Simply put, the CAP report is meant to get the Right to silence itself out of fear of what the left thinks of us so that the left can wage its war against us and the nation without any opposition.

I explained in “The Consequence Of Surrender: Our Own Ethics Are Being Used To Crush Us” how the left uses our own morals against us. I want to expand on that and explain just how dangerous what they are doing is.

The Right and the left both agree that the Right should never resort to violence—ever, even if someone on the Right is physically attacked. But the Right and the left do not agree on whether the left should ever resort to violence. The Right believes that the left should not while the left believes that violence is an integral part of who it is. Thus, while there is consensus that the Right should never resort to violence there is “debate” as to whether the left should. And whenever there is “debate” over a subject, society convinces itself that while people have the right to disagree on the matter, everyone must respect the other side and the people making the argument. Hence, there is a de facto surrender to the left on violence. In other words, while the Right might not agree with leftists that it is okay for leftists to commit violence, the Right still treats them as its legitimate, respectable opponents (not enemies) and the Right will “work with them on things on which we both can agree.” Yet since both the Right and the left agree that it isn’t okay for the Right to commit violence—ever—both the left and Right have anyone who can in any way be associated with the Right utterly condemned and banned from polite society if that person engages in any sort of violence, perceived violence, or even “uncivil” behavior (even when he is justified). Consider the following examples of these differing standards of acceptable behavior. And while not all examples include people who clearly can be defined as on the left or the Right, the people in each example are people with whom the left would normally sympathize or defend, or people with whom the Right would normally sympathize or defend.
