America Fighting 2nd Civil War? : Progressive Attacks On America's Principles

I sincerely don't understand why what is transpiring in our country isn't a form of all out war for the soul of the Constitution and our way of life in this country as founded back in 1776 -1789? And as the author states, Dennis Prager, the war is being fought by only one side and they are attacking with a hatful rage never seen in modern times, while the other side remains in their collective bunkers hoping all will end well.

As I have written here on many occasions, the Republicans, and many so-called Conservatives, find convenient to utter words of condemnation for what the progressive socialist liberal democrats are doing to country, but little or no action to stop it. principles

It seems it's easier to wring the hands in frustration then to 'stand and deliver' against the enemies of freedom and liberty. It's just to difficult.

Dennis Prager penned the following. Conservatives just won a major battle but, this article clearly explains that this is the first victory in a long time of a Civil War that has been going on for decades and most people have failed to recognize and if they did, have chosen to ignore it.  The left owns the narrative in most of education, media and Hollywood; those are major victories.  

 

America must wake up soon. We are in the Second Civil War and most Americans who really care about this country don't even know it.        

 

 

America's Second Civil War

It is time for our society to acknowledge a sad truth: America is currently fighting its second Civil War.

 

In fact, with the obvious and enormous exception of attitudes toward slavery, Americans are more divided morally, ideologically and politically today than they were during the first Civil War. For that reason, just as the Great War came to be known as World War I once there was World War II, the Civil War will become known as the First Civil War when more Americans come to regard the current battle as the Second Civil War.

 

This Second Civil War, fortunately, differs in another critically important way: It has thus far been largely nonviolent. But given increasing left-wing violence, such as riots, the taking over of college presidents' offices and the illegal occupation of state capitols, nonviolence is not guaranteed to be a permanent characteristic of the Second Civil War.

 

There are those on both the left and right who call for American unity. But these calls are either naive or disingenuous. Unity was possible between the right and liberals, but not between the right and the left.

 

Liberalism -- which was anti-left, pro-American and deeply committed to the Judeo-Christian foundations of America, and which regarded the melting pot as the American ideal, fought for free speech for its opponents, regarded Western civilization as the greatest moral and artistic human achievement and viewed the celebration of racial identity as racism -- is now affirmed almost exclusively on the right and among a handful of people who don't call themselves conservative.

 

The left, however, is opposed to every one of those core principles of liberalism.

 

Like the left in every other country, the left in America essentially sees America as a racist, xenophobic, colonialist, imperialist, warmongering, money-worshipping, moronically religious nation.

 

Just as in Western Europe, the left in America seeks to erase America's Judeo-Christian foundations. The melting pot is regarded as nothing more than an anti-black, anti-Muslim, anti-Hispanic meme. The left suppresses free speech wherever possible for those who oppose it, labeling all non-left speech "HATE speech." To cite only one example, if you think Shakespeare is the greatest playwright or Bach is the greatest composer, you are a proponent of dead white European males and therefore racist.

 

Without any important value held in common, how can there be unity between left and non-left? Obviously, there cannot.

 

There will be unity only when the left vanquishes the right or the right vanquishes the left. Using the First Civil War analogy American unity was achieved only after the South was vanquished and slavery was abolished.

 

How are those of us who oppose left-wing nihilism -- there is no other word for an ideology that holds Western civilization and America's core values in contempt -- supposed to unite with "educators" who instruct elementary school teachers to cease calling their students "boys" and "girls" because that implies gender identity? With English departments that don't require reading Shakespeare in order to receive a degree in English? With those who regard virtually every war America has fought as imperialist and immoral? With those who regard the free market as a form of oppression? With those who want the state to control as much of American life as possible? With those who repeatedly tell America and its black minority that the greatest problems afflicting black Americans are caused by white racism "white privilege" and "systemic racism"? With those who think that the nuclear family ideal is inherently misogynistic and homophobic? With those who hold that Israel is the villain in the Middle East? With those who claim that the term "Islamic terrorist" is an expression of religious bigotry?

 

The third significant difference between the First and Second Civil Wars is that in the Second Civil war, one side has been doing nearly all the fighting. That is how it has been able to take over schools -- from elementary schools, to high schools, to universities -- and indoctrinate America's young people, how it has taken over nearly all the news media, and how it has taken over entertainment media.

 

The conservative side has lost on every one of these fronts because it has rarely fought back with anything near the ferocity with which the left fights. Name a Republican politician who has run against the left as opposed to running solely against his or her Democratic opponent. And nearly all American conservatives, people who are proud of America and affirm its basic tenets, readily send their children to schools that indoctrinate their children against everything the parents hold precious. A mere handful protest when their child's teacher ceases calling their son a boy or their daughter a girl, or makes "slave owner" the defining characteristic of the Founding Fathers.

 

With the defeat of the left in the last presidential election, the defeat of the left in two-thirds of the gubernatorial elections and the defeat of the left in a majority of House and Senate elections, this is likely the last chance liberals, conservatives and the right have to defeat the American left. But it will not happen until these groups understand that we are fighting for the survival of America no less than the Union troops were in the First Civil War.
