Top 10 Things Liberals Will Try To Ban Within The Next Decade

Liberals are all about freedom…their freedom to tell us Normal Americans what to think, how to feel, and what to do. And the highest form of liberalism is the ban, a bar to an activity, institution, or attitude that they wish to suppress either to enhance their own power or just for the sheer joy of telling people like us – who they hate – what to do. Often, it’s both.

The following ten targets for prohibition may seem wacky now, but give the left time. “Really?” you might ask. But then, a decade ago everyone knew which bathroom to use, yet here we are. In my three novels about what America would look like if it split into red and blue halves, I tried to invent the craziest aspirations of libs gone wild. And my predictions keep coming true. Mark my words, it’s just a matter of time before they really do resurrect J. Edgar Hoover as an icon of non-binary gender identity.

The following bans are going to happen, as nutty as they may sound. Maybe not tomorrow, and maybe not completely at first, but they will. They can’t not happen, because the fascist imperative of leftism is control, control over every aspect of normal peoples‘ lives.

10. Pets 
That’s insane! Why, liberals would never ban the cats who provide the sole companionship for the lonely, bitter middle-aged divorcees who make up a key Democrat demographic. But wait – California has already banned sales of non-rescue pets in pet stores, so their paw is in the door. Can’t you see SJWs whining about “pet privilege?” How about PETA people insisting that these furry clumps of cells have rights, unlike the clumps of human cells in a uterus?

9. All-Male Sports
Frankly, this one is so obvious that it’s a wonder it hasn’t happened yet. Football, baseball, basketball, hockey – the top sports leagues are 100% male. Now, let’s leave aside the obvious truth that a woman able to compete with these male behemoths would be a sensation, and that if she could make tackles or home runs or whatever like a man, the fans would be delighted. But no, it’s clearly a conspiracy on the part of the patriarchy, as is biology itself, apparently.

8. Accurate Pronouns 
California already requires certain healthcare workers to lie about the sex of their patients if the patient demands it. In some places, people like teachers are getting fired for refusing to falsely state that a girl is a boy because she wants to be. Pretty soon, this nonsense will spread. Now, it won’t just be by law (though it will be in government situations). Businesses, which are usually gutless in the face of howling SJW mobs, will increasingly demand that their employees praise the emperor’s new clothes.

7. Fossil Fuel Cars 
California is already toying with this, and Stephen Hawking’s protégé Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes seems to want to make it part of the “Green New Deal.” Now, it’s a pretty good deal for the urban hipster crowd that can walk or bike or take the subway to their crappy jobs, but for Normals who live in the suburbs or the country, it’s a disaster. So much the better. Remember, like all liberal prohibitions, a huge part of the appeal of this measure is how it puts us uppity rubes in our place.

6. Hunting
Well, of course. Once again, the lure of jamming their power down the throats of the flyover Americans the coastal liberals hate is irresistible. We’re already seeing this as ridiculous municipalities refuse to take commonsense measures against deer overpopulation and marauding coyotes. The commonsense response is to shoot them, but instead the libs dither as deer starve, citizens get hurt in collisions, and as puppies and kittens get snatched away and devoured by predators who just don’t belong around people.

5. Private Doctors 
This is absolutely essential to the idea behind single payer – they can’t leave you with anywhere else to go. Nor can they tolerate the “inequality” that would occur should you decide to spend your own money on the medical care you want. Plus, if doctors have somewhere else to practice outside the government system, which will be like the VA without the patient care and efficiency, then they will do that. Remember, single payer is about control, and the government needs indentured servants to toil for it.

4. Guns
“Nobody wants to ban your guns!” they lie. Liberals are such awful gaslighters – one of the lefty fishwraps will run an op-ed by some prominent Democrat demanding gun confiscation and the moment we take notice the rest of the libs will look at us with straight faces and insist that “Nobody wants to ban your guns!” You would think they would lie better considering all their experience. In any case, this has been a key goal for decades for two reasons. First, of course, is the sheer joy of showing us bitter clingers who’s boss. But the second is more practical – disarmed, we’d be transformed from citizens into serfs, and we would have no means of resisting their most hideous prohibitions…or worse.

3. Religion
It’s already started – witness the shameful interrogation of believing Christians who have been nominated to the courts and other offices. Oh, the l;ibs won’t say they want to ban religion (by which they mean traditional Christianity and Judaism). They’ll just make it impossible for you to both practice your faith and participate in society. You can believe what you want, for a while, as long as you never act on it or tell anyone. Liberals cannot tolerate heretics who refuse to bow down to the false god of leftist ideology. Just watch what happens when President Trump nominates committed Catholic Amy Coney Barret…

2. Free Speech 
In England, you can get arrested for saying things – but only things the elite dislikes. The left would love to do that here too. Who thinks that if they had the power that they would not ban “hate speech” – that is, speech they disapprove of – and that a liberal Supreme Court majority would not eagerly find a hitherto unknown footnote in the First Amendment allowing it? Just look at college campuses, and what they did with their power there, then imagine our whole country exactly like that.

1. Conservatives
Prohibit an entire ideology? The left would never do that, except they are totally trying to do it. Political tests already exist in academia, Hollywood and the mainstream media – and conservatives fail. Their goal is to eventually drive conservatives out of all non-political positions of power, with driving them out of political power to follow, ably assisted by the cowardly Fredocon contingent of gimpcon fellow travelers like Mitt Romney. But in the meantime, their pals in Silicon Valley are already hard at work slowly eliminating conservative voices from the web. Whether its Google suppressing searched, Facebook helping the Dems, or Twitter banishing dissenters, their goal is clear. It’s to totally eliminate conservative opposition to the liberal elite.

Go ahead and laugh, but remember that I told you so here and in my latest novel, Wildfire – and I’ll tell you so again once these bans happen, assuming they haven’t yet imprisoned or killed me…or you.

The totalitarian left has turned bullying into a “function of government”. A few loud idiots drowning out the rest of us.

I have been saying for decades that there will be a push to make being a conservative a crime. all the other prohibitions are just a prelude to such action.

White Rationalist,

That was a revealing flashback…thanks for the reminder. Here is the full version for those who never saw it and some outstanding commentary on the prophetic script.

“THE TWILIGHT ZONE FULL EPISODE: THE OBSOLETE MAN

https://vimeo.com/227574480

How does “The Twilight Zone” episode “The Obsolete Man” criticize (THE RADICAL LEFT OF 2019 & THEIR PC) totalitarianism

Related: The Twilight Zone
Anthony Perrotta | November 19, 2015

Directed by Elliot Silverstein and written by series creator Rod Serling, The Twilight Zone (1959) episode “The Obsolete Man” originally aired on June 2, 1961. Clearly influenced by the German expressionist films of Fritz Lang (such as 1927’s Metropolis), this episode acts as a re-imagining of Franz Kafka’s 1925 novel The Trial (later made into a film by Orson Welles in 1962), which tells the story of Josef K.’s incomprehensible arrest for an unknown crime.

Starring series favorite Burgess Meredith as Romney Wordsworth, “The Obsolete Man” depicts an unspecified totalitarian society in an unspecified age, wherein “logic is an enemy and truth is a menace,” according to Serling’s opening narration.

Here, Burgess’ character, whose occupation is a librarian, is put on trial for being obsolete. Like Ray Bradbury’s 1952 dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451, which was adapted for the screen in 1966 by François Truffaut, there are no more books in this society and therefore no need for a librarian.

It is appropriate that Romney’s last name is Wordsworth, which plays on the worth of words. During his trail and the time leading up to his ultimate liquidation, Wordsworth debates the worth of literature, and knowledge in general, with the state’s Chancellor, portrayed by Fritz Weaver.

ROMMEY ALSO BELIEVES IN GOD despite the state’s claims of having proven that no such thing exists. The state’s notion mirrors that of Karl Marx, who famously argued that religion is the opium of the people and the proletariat should not be subdued in the present with promises of a heaven in the afterlife. Accordingly, given the time period, some view “The Obsolete Man” as an anti-communist tale, while others argue that the fable applies more generally to totalitarianism and a state that oppresses individual rights (Wordsworth compares the Chancellor to both Hitler and Stalin). Sterling held complex religious views — he was born Jewish, on Christmas Day, and later converted to Unitarianism in order to combine views from both religions — but rather than being essentially pro-religion, his cautionary tale condemns the state’s ruling to control thought and outlaw any divergent beliefs.

After being able to choose the method of his execution, Romey requests a private assassin, the only one to whom he will reveal the means of his death, and asks for his death to be televised. The Chancellor is delighted by the perceived benefits this will give the state in warning other rebellious spirits. However, the obsolete man manages to turn the tables. Wordsworth summons the Chancellor as his assassin, then announces he will die by bomb; the door is locked with both men inside, so the Chancellor will now die with Wordsworth. If the state were to rescue the Chancellor, it would contradict its own ruling.

Moments before both men are about to be blown to bits, Wordsworth produces his most prized possession: a BIBLE. (Owning the forbidden book is a crime punishable by death.) The Bible’s contents provide the man of words with comfort, as Wordswoth demonstrates for his audience how a spiritual man prepares for death, but the man of the state breaks down in tears and begs, “Let me out in the name of GOD!” Although Wordsworth releases the Chancellor (“in the name of GOD”), the Chancellor’s comments and escape ironically render him obsolete in the eyes of the state, like the now-deceased Wordsworth, since he did not present an image of bravery in the broadcast. The scene gives a double meaning to the episode’s title, as the Chancellor receives his death sentence.

Other than Fahrenheit 451 and “The Obsolete Man,” perhaps the most famous works of dystopian fiction, portraying worlds in which critical thinking is discouraged, include Aldous Huxley’s 1932 novel Brave New World and George Orwell’s 1948 novel1984 (which was made into two films). In Brave New World, the lower castes are bred for low intelligence and serious literature is banned as subversive, while in 1984 rebellion is made impossible through the gradual destruction of words.

“The Obsolete Man” is primarily concerned with illustrating how totalitarianism threatens freedom of thought, through its attack on arts, expression, and words in general. Wordsworth, the man of words, stands as a motivational figure against this oppression, and he draws on the BIBLE, not primarily as scripture, but as one of our most powerful examples of how literature may teach us self-knowledge, free thought, and inner peace.

“highest form of liberalism is the ban”, insightful and demonstrative of just how perverted use of the term has become.
Time to stop using the term, I am a Liberal.
These fucks are neomarxist/totalitarian/fascist/commies of sorts, at least call them progressives, as they have “progressed” out of any liberal notions once entertained .

They may have some use yet. Ruger has a new Precision Rifle in .300 WinMag and .338 Lapua that will score a center mass hit at one mile. Mile and a half on days with no wind. Surely that could be a good use for Progs.

Hey Kurt, all excellent points. I have often felt like voting for a Democrat but how can I when everything I support, they oppose and everything I oppose, they support?!?!?! Plus The Democratic Party has gone so far to the Left that I have a difficult time refering to them as Liberal. Now they are more like Marxist/Leftist/Socialist/Communist. The Democratic Party of today has no resemblance to The Democratic Party of Roosevelt/Truman/Kennedy/Hubert Humphrey/ Scoop Jackson. Really sad to see what it has become. SMH.

A Liberal is Useful Idiot…

A Progressive is just a Liberal in a Hurry!

A Socialist is just a Progressive in a Hurry!

A Communist is just a Socialist in a Hurry!

All the Democrats are running hard!!!

Most of the Republicans are jogging or walking in the wrong direction.

There you go. All we really needed all along was the right name for a nationwide write-in campaign.

Write-in “Overthecliff’s Ass” , and we can go back to doing our patriotic duty at the ballot box and save the good ol’ U.S. of A.!

In truth, I wish this would work. Then, when “Overthecliff’s Ass” wins, you can buy or borrow a donkey and have it sworn in. Very fitting.

I guess they were trying to make his image conform to his behavior. The guy acted stupidly when he shutdown the government because Ann Coulter needled his ass and unjured his delicate ego. He did not think shit through as he thought he could bully two very sharp people. I did not say honest or anything, I said sharp.

Poor Trump has been used to getting his way for so long, he did not see how he walked right into their trap. What was his exit strategy? Nada. He thought they would fold long before he had to.

This is not the WWE where you launch yourself off the turnbuckle onto your opponent and beat the fuck out of him for a few minutes until the ref counts to three. Nope. This is that damn dark alley like TBP used to be back in the wild and woolly days. You did not go gentle into that dark night. Trump just walked into one of those west Texas bars where you have to fight your way out with a knife or cue stick.

I’m continually surprised at the naivete of readers here that think folks are being mean to Trump. Old Truman said, if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. This is why I posted that Rocky video, old Trump has been given a shot at Apollo Creed, he will get his ass beat to a pulp before he has a chance to win. I’m rooting for him now because my old boss taught me to root for the underdog.

Private doctors still exist in the U.K. even though they have single payer. It’s for the rich because they’re the only ones that can pay the price. Everyone else is subject to government medicine, which sucks and is limited to whoever they say gets it. The paying high class get good health whenever needed but the minions get whatever the government says they can have.

Ban guns and they will go into hiding until needed. That’s why you don’t get a gun license to carry or buy from an arms dealer that has you on record.

Ban religion and people will practice it anyway, at least the truly religious, just like in ancient Rome, even with threat of death.

Banning conservatives will result in civil war.

I’m sorry, I came here for real information, not for someone to complain about things that they don’t understand. It blows my mind that some people are so brain dead that they think America needs semi automatic weapons. You do not need that kind of weapon to hunt, that is a gun for killing people with! America has such a high rate of shootings that they should ban guns! I don’t understand these people…
