Why Self-Defense Is The Only Type Of Violence The Left Won\u2019t Endorse<\/a><\/p>\n

After years of anti-cop rhetoric, violence is out of control in America\u2019s cities. Smash and grabs, sidewalk attacks and old ladies being mugged in broad daylight \u2014 all just factored into the cost of living a metropolitan lifestyle. But these are not simply passive inevitabilities that somehow come to pass. They are active policy choices of a revolutionary left, firmly in control of every major city, that sees violence as a tool toward its political aims. In fact, there is only one type of violence the left will not condone \u2014 and the key to understanding it lies in these political aims.<\/p>\n

The radical left may talk often of high-minded goals, but their ultimate goal is to eradicate hierarchy \u2014 the central push of the \u201cequity\u201d agenda. All must be made equal in order for all to be equally free. For classical liberals, this meant equal treatment under the law, unaffected by circumstances of birth. Yet for the radical outgrowth, this now means leveling all aspects of\u00a0genuine\u00a0<\/em>human diversity. However, they do not truly seek egalitarian reforms, but merely to rejigger any form of traditional hierarchy (much of which had already been dismantled by their liberal forebears) and instead place themselves at the top. So the attack on hierarchy really becomes a spiteful, resentful attack on any form of\u00a0tradition.<\/em> This is the true nature of the radical left.<\/p>\n

Traditional morality posits that the criminal is the \u201coppressor\u201d of the \u201cvictim,\u201d whom he victimizes with his crime. This has been the basis of virtually every legal system throughout human history. Yet radical left morality flips this notion on its head. The new \u201cvictim\u201d becomes the criminal himself, victimized by the injustices of a hierarchical society that drives him to desperation: the thief stealing to feed his family or violence as the \u201clanguage of the unheard.\u201d The person on the receiving end becomes merely a casualty in the putsch to upend traditional morality, while the priests of the new morality consolidate their right to rule.<\/p>\n
