For most of America\u2019s 244-year history, the dominant political parties that evolved had a common goal constantly working to improve the country they both loved. \u00a0In the 1860s, a Republican president went to war to end slavery. \u00a0A century later, a Democratic president launched another well-intentioned\u00a0war, a war on poverty. \u00a0Democrats and Republicans alike largely saw their country as a force for good, both at home and abroad. \u00a0Beginning in the 1960s, that widely- shared view began to show cracks as the progressive movement began tightening its grip on the modern Democratic Party. \u00a0Democrat icons of the 1960s &#8212; Adlai Stevenson, Henry \u201cScoop\u201d Jackson, Sam Nunn, Hubert Humphrey and JFK, to name a few &#8212; were genuine patriots who loved their country, a sentiment that was shared by a large majority of that era\u2019s rank and file Democrats.\u00a0 Such is no longer the case. Here are four\u00a0ways Democrats are looking to end the idea of America altogether:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Killing America by replacing\u00a0patriotism with socialism<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In October 2018,\u00a0<em>The New York Times<\/em>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2018\/10\/18\/opinion\/democrat-electorate-left-turn.html#click=https:\/\/t.co\/a6mCmsA595\">reported<\/a>\u00a0that 69% of progressive Democrats\u00a0 are ashamed of being American. \u00a0Increasingly influenced by the progressive wing of their party, Democrats as a whole have moved sharply away from that love of country, and veered\u00a0toward socialism that sounded like communism: In February 2019, Public Opinion Strategies\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/washington-secrets\/2020-poll-77-dems-back-socialism-but-most-voters-dont\">found<\/a>\u00a0that an astounding 77% of Democrats who plan to vote in 2020 self-identify as socialists.\u00a0 Aided and abetted by the complicit mainstream media, the modern Democratic Party has been remarkably successful at driving down patriotism: Gallup\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/news.gallup.com\/poll\/236420\/record-low-extremely-proud-americans.aspx\">found<\/a>\u00a0that less than a third of Democrats are extremely proud of their country.\u00a0 That&#8217;s less than a third, and trending sharply downward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Killing America by making citizenship meaningless<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Why has the modern Democratic Party worked so diligently to erode patriotism? Because love of country is a major impediment to convincing voters to support what they really want, which is yielding their nation\u2019s sovereignty to an international governing body, ultimately the United Nations. With patriotism marginalized, a society\u2019s populace can more easily be led to no longer see themselves as citizens of their country, but as \u201ccitizens of the world.\u201d\u00a0 (In his July 2008 speech in Berlin, progressive presidential candidate Barack Obama\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2009\/09\/110936\/\">told<\/a>\u00a0an adoring crowd of 200,000 cheering Europeans, \u201cI come to you as a Citizen of the World.\u201d)<\/p>\n<p>In Europe, the long-standing national identity of every progressive-run nation\u00a0is already being intentionally erased, and it stands as a sort of bellwether of things to come over here.<\/p>\n<p>Government-encouraged mass migration is its instrument, and the\u00a0same thing is being attempted in America by the modern Democratic Party. This particular phenomenon\u00a0is particularly associated\u00a0with\u00a0billionaire globalist George Soros. \u00a0The Hungarian-born &#8220;stateless statesman&#8221;\u00a0is the most prolific financier of the progressive push for a world without borders.<\/p>\n<p>In his anti-capitalist best-seller,\u00a0<em>The Crisis of Global Capitalism,\u00a0<\/em>Soros sets out the progressive strategy. \u00a0Complaining bitterly about \u201cthe sway of sovereign nations,\u201d Soros has advocated for, and since spent\u00a0immense sums each year fostering \u201copen society alliances\u201d among sovereign nations. \u00a0The goal of these alliances is to indoctrinate citizens of western nations to accept the high-mindedness of doing away with national identities in favor of a collectivist world\u00a0identity.\u00a0 With national identities erased, people no longer see themselves as patriotic citizens of their countries, but as united citizens of an enlightened global society.\u00a0 People who oppose the unfettered influx of migrants and refugees are shouted down as racists and xenophobes. \u00a0Once open-border alliances have been solidified, the last obstacle is\u00a0cleared for a borderless world governed by the UN. \u00a0For global governance to become a reality, the sovereignty of every western nation, including America, must be eliminated, Soros believes.<\/p>\n<p>When the election of Donald Trump dealt a calamitous setback to the near-term realization of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pgnWt13aO9k\">fundamentally transforming America<\/a>, Soros penned an angry rant comparing Trump to Hitler, and calling him a racist and a xenophobe. \u00a0Known as \u201cthe puppet master\u201d because of the enormous influence he exerts on Democratic Party hierarchy, Soros\u2019s foremost target in taking down sovereign western democracies is the crown jewel of them all: the United States of America. \u00a0In working toward the culmination of that takedown, the billionaire globalist mastermind has powerful allies at the highest levels of the modern Democratic Party.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Killing America through identity politics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To overthrow a capitalist society,\u00a0<em>The Communist Manifesto\u00a0<\/em>calls for fomenting a titanic struggle by pitting an alleged victim class against an alleged oppressor class. \u00a0In the Russian Revolution of 1917, the Bolsheviks rose to power by pitting the proletariat against the bourgeoisie.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last half-century, the Democratic Party has taken the concept of Marxist\/Leninist dialectical\u00a0struggle to new heights through its use of\u00a0<em>identity politics<\/em>. The term refers to politically subdividing the electorate into multiple factions (voting blocks), whose members are told they are singled out for persecution by a bigoted and unjust society. \u00a0To wit: People of color are persecuted by racists &amp; white supremacists, women by sexists &amp; misogynists, refugees &amp; illegal immigrants by nativists &amp; xenophobes, Muslims by Islamophobes, gays &amp; lesbians by homophobes &amp; religious bigots, the 99% by the 1%, and so on. \u00a0The goal of identity politics is to turn a majority of the American electorate against their country.<\/p>\n<p>The self-serving narrative of identity politics is that caring, inclusive and tolerant Democrats will righteously defend the members (voters) of each identity group from the constant onslaught of outrages inflicted on them by an oppressive society. \u00a0Identity politics is used as a political bludgeon to deceive Americans into believing their country is an incurably unjust place where things can be set straight only by killing off its existing economic and governing systems.<\/p>\n<p>That is the observed pattern and it&#8217;s important. It tells us why the\u00a02020 elections will determine whether our free market Republic survives, or falls from within to single-party socialist rule.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why the Left Really Wants to Kill America The century-long attempt to kill capitalism in America gained a dramatic head of steam in the 1960s with the rapid ascendency of\u00a0progressivism, a Marxist movement that would quietly seize control of the Democratic Party over the last half-century.
