Guilty By Reason of Insanity Quotes

“Liberals are creating an America, where it’s natural to hate people of differing political views,” writes columnist John Hawkins. “Not disagree with, hate.… It’s the liberal mentality that says, ‘People who disagree with us on anything are racist, sexist, homophobic and evil. Therefore, we don’t have to treat them fairly. Therefore, their concerns are irrelevant. Therefore, it’s acceptable to lie about them, take away their rights or even use the IRS or legal system to mistreat them.’ ”35”

“In their ongoing war against evil capitalists, some vengeful Democrats have their eyes on banks, which they blame for making millions of loans that resulted in foreclosures and the 2008 financial crisis. Never mind that it was progressives who forced the government to make these loans to low-income borrowers with poor credit ratings through the Community Reinvestment Act and anti-discrimination laws. They promoted minority home ownership without regard to the owners’ ability to repay, and the result was catastrophic. But being a leftist means never having to say you’re sorry—just pass a misguided policy and blame everyone else when it predictably fails. Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters, emboldened by Democrats recapturing control of the House, issued a stern warning to bankers before the 2019 session began. “I have not forgotten” that “you foreclosed on our houses,” she said, and “had us sign on the line for junk and for mess that we could not afford. I’m going to do to you what you did to us.”62 How’s that for good governance—using her newfound power as incoming chairwoman of the House Financial Services Committee to punish bank executives for the disaster she and her fellow Democrats caused? Waters is also targeting corporations for allegedly excluding minorities and women from executive positions. Forming a new subcommittee on diversity and inclusion, she immediately held a hearing to discuss the importance of examining the systematic exclusion of women, people of color, persons with disabilities, gays, veterans, and other disadvantaged groups.63 Why concentrate on policies to stimulate economic growth and improve people’s standards of living when you can employ identity politics to demonize your opponents?”

“For all their sanctimony, socialists are more materialistic than capitalists. Their passion for equalizing incomes stems from covetousness—the preoccupation with what others have. To wish to dispossess others of their property is, essentially, greed. “Greed is woven through every human heart, and it is a mistake to assume that alternatives to capitalism will render greed vanished,” writes Lauren Reiff. “It doesn’t go away—it merely is channeled somewhere else, into taking from others namely, and that’s a dangerous game. That capitalism’s most fashionable smear is that it is greedy is awfully telling but absolutely not the correct allegation to make.”

“One discouraging aspect of identity politics is that the left shows they don’t really want these problems solved. They will never acknowledge progress in civil rights, women’s rights, or overall interracial tolerance. It is not in their political interests to do so because their political power, which they crave above all else, depends on the existence of perpetual classes of victims. Their lust for social justice (read: revenge) is insatiable.”

“The 2020 election will be a referendum on capitalism versus socialism, on life versus infanticide, on gender sanity versus insanity, on equal opportunity versus forced equal outcomes, on color blindness versus race-baiting, on free speech versus censorship, on freedom of thought versus political correctness, on American sovereignty versus open borders and globalism, and on liberty versus authoritarianism.”

“Many left-leaning Americans, especially younger ones, don’t remotely understand some of the ideas they support, such as socialism, and what their implementation would really mean. They are simply caught up in promoting a “noble” cause. They serve as foot soldiers for policies that produce results exactly opposite of their stated intention and ultimately lead to impoverishment, slavery, and tyranny. Imbued with a sanctimonious sense of self-worth, they look down on their political opponents and are stubbornly impervious to reason.”

“It’s also curious that plastic straws are now a worldwide threat, considering not long ago plastic bags were touted as an environmentally sensitive alternative to paper bags. It seems the bottom line is that both paper and plastic are bad, and the left will limit your access to both.”

“They approach most issues with equal certainty and zeal. Theirs is the only legitimate position, so all opposition must be silenced in proceeding to the mandated, top-down solution. Often superficially appealing, their causes are always billed as urgent. Remember their passion for the homeless? Why do we hear so little from Democrats on the issue now, when homelessness is rising sharply in deep-blue states like California and in other major cities under Democratic control?”

“The leftists’ passion is not for minorities, women, or the downtrodden, but for their ideology, which seeks radical transformation of the existing order. Women, minorities, and the poor are convenient props, ripe for exploitation to advance their cause. Sometimes they are willing to be patient and play the long game, working for decades to achieve their goal, if necessary, such as their systematic infiltration of academia or the federal government’s control over public education. Other times, they operate with revolutionary fervor—manufacturing a crisis and moving with dizzying speed to force complete and immediate transformation.”

“The left’s authoritarian impulse goes hand in hand with its dogmatic ideology. Leftists are so certain their philosophy is the sole correct moral viewpoint that no other views are accorded the slightest respect. With this outlook, it doesn’t take much to rationalize the use of force to foist their beliefs on the entire country.”

“The left’s attempt to punish, humiliate, and ostracize its opponents is particularly apparent in universities. Students at the Savannah College of Art and Design began a petition demanding the removal of the name of Savannah native Justice Clarence Thomas from one of the campus buildings, preposterously claiming he is “anti-woman.”66 Across the pond, Cambridge University rescinded its invitation for a visiting fellowship from Professor Jordan Peterson after students protested Peterson’s skepticism of white privilege and global warming, among various heresies.67 Laughably, they say Peterson isn’t welcome on their campus because they promote an “inclusive environment.” Only leftists could speak such Orwellian pap with a straight face. As the Spectator’s Toby Young observed, inclusiveness means an environment where “everyone looks different but thinks exactly the same.”68 Indeed, how can liberal academics think they are training young minds to think for themselves when they censor ideas not in lockstep with their own?”

“Iram Osei-Frimpong, a leftist teaching assistant at the University of Georgia, posted on the university’s Facebook page, “Some white people may have to die for Black communities to be made whole in this struggle to advance to freedom. To pretend that’s not the case is ahistorical and dangerously naïve.” So he advocates murder while accusing others of being “dangerous”? In a later-deleted post on Medium he allegedly said, “Killing some white people isn’t genocide; it’s killing some white people.… We had to kill some white people to get out of slavery. Maybe if we’d killed more during the twentieth century we still wouldn’t talk about racialized voter disenfranchisement and housing, education, and employment discrimination. This should not be controversial.”

“There are enough examples of liberal intolerance, hatred, and incivility to fill volumes—in this chapter, I provide just a fractional sampling. The left has become a giant outrage mob, bullying everyone who refuses to submit to its ideas. Leftists are everything they say they are not, and they embody what they rail against. They talk diversity and inclusiveness and claim to champion gays, minorities, and women, but as noted, they’ll viciously turn on any member of these groups whenever they deviate from leftist orthodoxy. On a daily basis, leftists get away with statements that any conservative would be flayed alive for saying. Former Saturday Night Live star Jane Curtin, for example, announced on CNN, “My New Year’s resolution is to make sure the Republican Party dies.”7 Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin went even further, proclaiming, “It’s not only that Trump has to lose, but that all his enablers have to lose. We have to collectively, in essence, burn down the Republican Party. We have to level them because if there are survivors—if there are people who weather this storm, they will do it again.”8 Predictably, there was no uproar on the left about the casual heartlessness of these comments, which were made around two years after a Bernie Sanders supporter shot up a congressional Republican baseball practice, wounding four people including Republican Rep. Steve Scalise. If a Republican comedian had mused on CNN about ensuring the death of the Democratic Party, she’d be subject to a nationwide boycott to this day. Then again, it’s hard to imagine a Republican comedian being invited on a mainstream media platform at all—because for the left, everything is political.”

“But unemployment statistics suggest instead that there isn’t much slack in the workforce,” Hiltzik smugly wrote. “At 4.4%, the unemployment rate is at about the point economists judge to be full employment.”83 Hiltzik was just as confident Trump would have no success turning productivity around. Thankfully, the naysayers lost. Under Trump, wages rose for the first time in two decades.84 In November 2018, unemployment dropped to its lowest rate in a half century. Black unemployment reached its lowest recorded level in May 2018, at 5.9 percent, and unemployment rates for Latino, young, and low-skilled workers are lower than they’ve been in years. Unemployment for Americans with disabilities also reached an all-time low.85 In the same year women’s unemployment reached its lowest rate in sixty-five years. By the close of 2018 there were more job openings in America than unemployed people for the first time in this nation’s history. More than five million jobs had been created since Trump took office.”

“While the bill would not directly make doctors government employees, it would force them to sign a “participation agreement” to be eligible to receive government payments. This agreement, says Smith, would require the doctors to accept the government fee as full compensation for their services, allow the government to inspect their books, and accept government regulations in the future. With no bargaining leverage, doctors would have to comply to continue in their profession. Such is the world of a government-imposed monopoly.”

“The historical record is unambiguous and indisputable—socialism has consistently devastated human lives and entire nations. In the name of progress, it has brought poverty, misery, despair, and often dictatorship and death. The twentieth century stands as a permanent indictment of socialism. The socialist states and regimes of the Soviet Union, Red China, Nazi Germany, North Korea, Cambodia, Africa, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Eastern Europe, and Latin America are responsible for murdering more than 100 million people.29 Indulging the convenient fiction that fascism is right-wing, leftists pretend that Nazism was not socialist, even though socialism was in its title and platform. Walter Williams observes that no such record of brutality has occurred in countries with free-market economies.30”

“We must be mindful of the proper role of government. The framers didn’t idealize the state but believed the government’s purpose is to protect its citizens from domestic and foreign threats, to enforce the rule of law, and to preserve order to maximize citizens’ freedoms. They cherished liberty and considered it a virtuous end in itself. Today, we have lost sight of the value of liberty, as we have increasingly traded it for the illusory promise of economic security. As history has consistently shown, when you engage in this Faustian bargain you end up losing both freedom and security.”

“Professor Walter Williams argues that socialism, because of its forced redistribution of wealth, is immoral and akin to theft. “Reaching into one’s pocket to assist his fellow man is noble and worthy of praise,” writes Williams. “Reaching into another person’s pocket to assist one’s fellow man is despicable and worthy of condemnation.”9 Some may believe it’s not theft when the duly elected representatives of the people legislate income redistributions. But Dr. Williams’s use of the term “theft” is far more appropriate than Nancy Pelosi’s use of the same word to describe the Trump income tax cuts. “This tax cut for corporate America is theft. It’s theft from the future,” asserted Pelosi. “Their flagship issue is to give tax breaks to the wealthiest people in the country at the expense of our children’s future.”

“Socialism, on the other hand, destroys the incentive to produce and achieve, as evidenced by the Soviet Union and all its captive satellite nations. As President Ronald Reagan declared in 1987, “The more repressive the government, the more controlled the economy, the more confiscatory the taxation, the more likely a society is to sink into poverty and despair. John Dos Passos was so right when he observed: ‘Marxism has not only failed to promote human freedom. It has failed to produce food.’ ”6”

“Rao’s leftist critics were also incensed that in her youth Rao challenged the tenets of identity politics, an unforgivable blasphemy. She wrote, “[M]ulticulturalists… separate and classify everyone according to race, gender and sexual orientation. Those who reject their assigned categories are called names: So-called conforming blacks are called ‘oreos’ by members of their own community, conservatives become ‘fascists.’ Preaching tolerance, multiculturalists seldom practice it.…”7 Rao’s observations are irrefutable. The gender-scolding left talks a good game on feminism but treats conservative women like it treats conservative minorities—with contempt—proving again that its political agenda trumps everything.”

“ingrained assumption that sex does not matter is just plain wrong.”88 There is evidence of sex differences in research involving human beings as well as in animal research, including studies on human brain structure and other human brain genetics. Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania found that women’s brains show significantly stronger patterns of interconnectivity across brain regions, including across the hemispheres, than men’s brains, while men’s brains show greater average connectivity within local brain regions. “This means we cannot explain the sex differences in their results as simply being due to different cultural experiences between males and females,” writes Cahill. “… In a comprehensive review of human-brain connectivity studies from several years ago, Gaolang Gong and colleagues concluded that ‘it should be mandatory to take gender into account when designing experiments or interpreting results of brain connectivity/network in health and disease.’ The data since then confirms this view.” Another important study shows that sex differences exist even down to the genetic level in human beings, which means that the biological mechanisms of brain aging and disease cannot be assumed to be the same in men and women.”

“A 2016 study by Johns Hopkins University scientists Dr. Lawrence S. Mayer and Dr. Paul R. McHugh corroborates Heyer’s and Paglia’s claims. Its findings include: scientific evidence does not support the claim that sexual orientation is an innate, biologically fixed property (that people are “born that way”); some 80 percent of male adolescents who report same-sex attractions do not do so as adults; non-heterosexuals are two to three times more likely to have been sexually abused in childhood; gay people have an increased risk of adverse health and mental health outcomes; gay-identified people have a nearly two-and-a-half times greater risk of suicide; the notion that gender identity is fixed (that a man might be trapped in a woman’s body or a woman in a man’s body) is unsupported by scientific evidence; studies of brain structures show no evidence for a neurological basis for cross-gender identification; sex-reassigned people are five times more likely to attempt suicide and nineteen times more likely to die by suicide; the rate of lifetime suicide attempts by transgenders is 41 percent compared to 5 percent among the entire U.S. population; and only a minority of children who experience cross-gender identification continue to do so into adolescence or adulthood.”

“Discussing the dangers inherent in this misguided, ideological approach to raising boys, Melissa Langsam Braunstein, a mother of three daughters and one son, asks, “How do you parent a boy when political grenades are constantly being lobbed at their entire sex, due to no fault of their own?” Describing the new APA guidelines as “hair-raising,” she strongly objects to the APA telling boys they are inherently damaged and that they should shoulder blame for centuries of perceived wrongs by the so-called patriarchy. “I certainly don’t want them being asked to leave a public playground,” she says, “because another mother wants to host a girls-only playtime to compensate for decades- or centuries-old injustices.”33 She wonders why people can’t support girls and women without shaming boys and men. Not everything has to be a zero-sum game.”

“Men don’t do evil things with their masculinity because they’re poisoned by testosterone, but because they’re corrupted by sin,” states Hans Fiene, a Lutheran pastor and writer. “So, when you grow up and encounter such men, don’t disavow your manliness. Embrace it and use it to defeat them as you pray for their conversion. Bad men will always be out there.… Big, strong, evil men need to know that if they use their size and strength to do something evil, big, strong, righteous men will make them regret it.”31 Pastor Fiene’s point is that we shouldn’t try to emasculate young men but teach them to develop their strength and their righteousness and use them for good.”

“In an interview with Fox News’s Tucker Carlson, Jordan Peterson also challenges the leftist notion of toxic masculinity and questions why we are even talking about it, considering that the crime rates in the United States and all of North America have fallen by 50 percent in the last twenty-five years, including every category of violent crime. “So, where’s the crisis, and why in the world would we turn our children’s education over to idiot ideologues? Even the academics are waking up to this. There was an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education just two weeks ago excoriating the faculties of education for their appalling standards and their absolute ideological obssession. And this idea that we should address toxic masculinity from K to 12 is just an extension of that.”24 “The term [toxic masculinity] itself is terribly defined,” observes Peterson. “I think it’s appalling that faculties of education are pushing this sort of nonsense and I think that if your kids are exposed to that type of idiot social justice, pseudo education, you should pull them out of the schools. Everything about the idea is ridiculous.… They are not being educated; they are being propagandized. There’s also no evidence that we construct our identities as masculine and feminine by being expressly taught them by teachers. Almost all that is learned by example, to the degree that it’s learned, and a tremendous amount of it is a consequence of biological inclination.”25 Peterson’s assertion on biological inclination, of course, radically differs from the leftist notion that men and women are not that different biologically.”

“Consider, for example, the title of a prominent book on the subject: The Mask of Masculinity: How Men Can Embrace Vulnerability, Create Strong Relationships, and Live Their Fullest Lives.22 Leftists cleverly have it both ways with this line of reasoning: men and women aren’t that different biologically, but men are evil anyway.”
