More proof that the Democrats have become a cult



We all know that the Democrat party is an enormous echo chamber where only the chimes of consensus are permitted.

Whenever anyone dares to sow discord by stating inconvenient truths, they are walloped with a metaphorical stick and ordered to fall in line.

We have two recent cases to prove this claim.

First, the reaction to Fetterman Vs. Oz debate

Anybody watching the debate knows that Fetterman was cognitively impaired. He clearly had serious problems comprehending questions and was unable to construct articulate answers. It is perfectly obvious that he is not ready for the job.

This wasn’t a poor performance it was unmitigated nonperformance.

The mainstream media initially conceded that Fetterman was seriously diminished.

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough said that Fetterman’s “ability to communicate is seriously impaired. Pennsylvania voters will be talking about this obvious fact even if many in the media will not.” 

Time’s Charlotte Alter, who is sympathetic towards Fetterman, also conceded that Fetterman fared poorly.

Democrat mouthpiece The Washington Post called it a “rough night” for Fetterman.

Before we could celebrate the rare occasion of the media being factual, they reverted back to their Democrat talking points

Daily Beast columnist Matt Lewis claimed that the practice of debates is obsolete.

This is the same Lewis has once called Fetterman and Oz Two Rich Phonies Playing Populism”

Lewis also claimed Fetterman could earn pity points owing to his condition while Oz looked like a bully.

Time’s Charlotte Alter, behaved like a campaign manager and cited the money Fetterman’s campaign had raised

But MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough really took the cake with his U-turn.

He claimed that Pennsylvanians having a tough time (he didn't say due to Biden’s weak economy) would relate to Fetterman and cheer him.

He claimed that debates are not linked to electoral outcomes. He then baselessly attacked Oz calling him a fraud

The rest stuck didn't need U Turns, they stuck to their talking points

MSNBC’s Liz Plank called Oz a bully and claimed ableism won

Co-host of the View Sunny Hostin called Fetterman brave.

Now about the infamous letter to Biden.

On Monday when 30 left-wing House Democrats, led by Rep. Pramila Jayapal (Wa.), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, sent a letter to the White House urging Joe Biden to pursue a diplomatic solution to the war in Ukraine.  

The letter was signed by the likes of AOC (N.Y.), Cori Bush (Mo.), Ro Khanna (Calif.), Ilhan Omar (Minn.), and Jamie Raskin (Md.)

The idea of peace via diplomacy is the need of the hour.  The U.S. has sent over $60 billion in aid to Ukraine and he cannot keep doing this forever. There has been death, destruction, and mayhem for too long, it is time to compel all parties to come to the negotiation table.

But the war-hungry Democrats standing to profiteer from this conflict were livid.

Some Democrats demanded that more weapons be sent to Ukraine so that the war can be ‘won;

Others claimed that negotiations will legitimize Putin.

The same Democrats have no compunctions negotiating with Iran that is brutalizing its people

Rep. Auchincloss (D-Mass.) called the letter an "olive branch to a war criminal who’s losing his war.”

Socialists are usually supposed to be anti-war, however, Sen Bernie Sanders is an exception to that rule

Rep. Moulton (D-Mass.) called the letter “presumptuous, out of touch, and would only embolden Putin.”

The backlash caused the leftwingers to issue a groveling clarification

“Diplomacy is an important tool that can save lives — but it is just one tool. As we also made explicitly clear in our letter and will continue to make clear, we support President Biden and his administration’s commitment to nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.”

By Tuesday evening the pressure had gotten too much for the signatories and the letter was withdrawn.

The excuses were implausible.

The senders claimed, “the letter was drafted several months ago, but unfortunately was released by staff without vetting.” If that was the case why did they not withdraw it immediately and why did they issue a clarification to it.

The signatories also claimed that they withdrew the letter since it could be conflated as an endorsement of the GOP's opposition to the conflict.

Why was the letter sent in the first place?

Perhaps the signatories were facing backlash from their voters and were engaging in a charade to distance themselves from both Joe Biden and a deeply unpopular war

It has hard to say what really happened, perhaps there were threats from the Democrat leadership about withdrawing campaign money and other luxuries afforded to them by the DC Democrat establishment.

An anonymous Democrat leader revealed the following:

They didn’t even allow fellow Democrats to engage in the pretense of urging diplomacy for just a few weeks to win their midterm contests.

Most are establishment loyalists because it facilitates pecuniary gains, influence peddling, and power-grabbing.

But the rest are not allowed to breathe freely.

This is because the Democrats are a  cult. A cult needs a complete consensus and even the perceptions of differences of opinion weaken

Contrast this with the GOP

There is one group that opposed the unrestricted funding of the war. There is another who is a vehement and unconditional supporter of funding Ukraine for as long as it takes.

Beyond the war, there is a great diversity of perspectives

The MAGA wing stands against the establishment in support of the free market, freedom, and liberty. There is the Ann Coulter wing that thinks the MAGA wing has given up on its principles and thinks of itself as the real MAGA wing. The establishment wing despises the MAGA wing. The Coulter wing despises the establishment. The establishment wing doesn’t despise the Coulter wing because they do not know it exists. The libertarian wing leans toward the MAGA wing but is not in full support of all its agenda.

These groups openly slug it out in public, however, the GOP establishment has never compelled anyone to withdraw statements or issue groveling apologies.

The Democrats frequently refer to Trump’s supporters as bigoted, vacuous, and brainwashed cult members who follow the Pipe Piper of Mar-a-Lago where ever he goes.

This seems to be another case of the left blaming their opponents for the folly that they are guilty of.

George Bernard Shaw famously said, "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world while the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man."

In modern times, the "unreasonable" man will never be allowed in the Democrat party.

Firstly because they do not approve of gender-specific words and secondly they despise contrarian perspectives. It is amazing they call themselves progressive. The word has been hijacked and bastardized.

However, the ‘unreasonable’ man despite staunch opposition was allowed in the GOP and even became President in 2017, despite opposition within the party at every stage of the race.

The GOP, despite its myriad shortcomings, is the party of freedom and diversity while the Democrats are a sinister cult.
