Democrats and Winners

For a long time the Republicans have been claiming that they were winners and that everyone else were losers. Then the Democrats got better at business and technology. So now, the same people who claimed themselves to be winners are claiming that the world is evil because not everyone who is a winner practices their beliefs.

I do not see any reason whatsoever why a winner would have to be a Republican. There are winners and losers everywhere, from Texas to China. Many of the people who vote Republican now would be regarded by 80s Republicans to be losers. And there are plenty of winners among the Democrats.

What we see here is a false worldview being challenged by reality. A person who thinks that only Republicans are winners is thrown completely off kilter when a winner is not a Republican. This causes what I call worldview panic. And the reaction to that is completely hysterical.

So now we are seeing people blame Jews, or liberals, for all sorts of problems. The first is the most easy to refute. If Jews were – as these people say – in control, and if Jews were – as these people say - evil, then they would be facing a firing squad. Instead they are free to spread their propaganda; which shows either that Jews are not in control, or that the Jews are so good that they would even let live the people who wish them dead.

With treatment of liberals, what we see is supreme ingratitude. Liberals dominate science, which is at the root of all technology – meaning, at the root of just about everything that business sells. Liberals take poorly-paying positions in education so that they could direct their energies toward supporting the mental development of the youth. Liberals run Hollywood, which dominates the world's airwaves. Liberals have created noble social covenants, and in parts of America where they are in power women have equal powers with men.

It takes a lot to win while holding true to noble ideals. The Democrats who are winners do not deserve demonization; they deserve respect. Having good values, and being in a position to make these good values matter, creates the best of all worlds. The more Democrats do well, the more they are in position to influence matters in right direction. The better becomes the lot of America.
