The Problem with "Tolerance" of the Views and Opinions of the Left

I recently received a request for tolerance from what appears to be an independent? Liberal? Confused person?  On Twitter.  You can see her account hereAnd an example of one of her tweets:
The 1% should pay income Tax. The 99% should be waved of income tax, until the Gap returns to the 70's range. How about it??


Her request was:
@ConsrvatvThinkr tx for the follow. I may not agree but I can respect and try to understand your views without malicious intent. Can you?
Interesting request.  I’m planning a longer reply in this forum later on.  For now, I’ll just say this:  My views promote the type of freedom that allows your differing opinions.  Do your views promote individual freedoms?  Or do they lean toward the type of socialism and eventually tyranny that would remove our freedoms to even discuss these issues?  History and evidence show that “Tolerance” for your opinions, and the extremes they promote, lead to power accumulating to evil groups, the stifling of freedoms and human rights and incredible suffering to all people under the socialist regime.  In some ways, I will show tolerance for your opinions.  However, on a deeper level, I will show extreme disgust and despise for your opinions, and I will do EVERYTHING I POSSIBLY CAN to expose them for what they are.

Look forward to longer discussion later on.  I would love to hear more of consenting or dissenting opinions in our comments section.

How is the Media Liberally Biased? - THE SLOW BRAINWASH


Watching an episode of Parks and Recreation tonight was just one more reminder of how the media is slowly, imperceptibly brainwashing the population.  I know that brainwashing is a strong term, but that is, in reality, what is happening.  I laugh every time I hear of the Left's accusations of brainwashing and indoctrination by religions and small communities (who cling to their guns and religion), while they relentlessly churn out their agendas on the media propaganda machine that is network television, cable television and movies.

The way slow brainwashing takes place is perfectly illustrated in the following quote.  Despite my dislike of his economic philosphy, and the damage done to countries that have followed his policies, John Maynard Keynes explained the slow brainwash perfectly when he said:

The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.

The slow brainwash that the Left is pumping through the media is seen all around us.  We should be constantly vigilent of what we allow in our homes and our minds.  For that which we have allowed in, we should recognize them for what they are. 

Even though they may seem sweet and innocent (reference the WALL-E explanation below), and the main theme may not be anti-capitalist, anti-freedom Leftist rhetoric, the reality is that each attack on property rights, the free market and conservative ideals is the slow brainwash that the Left so desparately wants.  See the references below and please add one or more of the many others through your comments:

  • Parks and Recreation celebrates everything government-run, beurocratic and wasteful while unceasingly mocking private enterprise and the "greedy scum" who choose to work for the proift motive.
  • Wall-E is a heart warming robot love story that even touched me.  But after I saw it a second time, and thought about it for a while, I realized that one of the major themes is that Wal-Mart, along with its "greedy", "polluting" profit motive, DESTROYS THE WORLD!
  • Glee is so overbearing about pushing their agenda (which is painfully obvious) that anyone who dares have the "bigotry" of a different opinion cannot bare to watch it.
  • And the list goes on...
The examples can be seen endlessly.  Please add to them in your comments.  Thanks!
