The real ‘democracy threat’ isn’t white Americans, but the Democrat Party
Engaging Paraphrase: White Rural Rage
Prepare to be blown away by the latest book from esteemed columnists Tom Schaller and Paul Waldman. Their groundbreaking work, White Rural Rage, delves into the fascinating world of flyover Americans and their unwavering support for Donald Trump. To promote their book, they recently made an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” and let me tell you, it was a segment for the ages.
Words cannot adequately describe the sheer delusion and dishonesty that permeated every single word of this interview. These so-called “journalists” are so out of touch with reality that they wouldn’t recognize the truth if it slapped them in the face. Their arrogance knows no bounds.
Not only do these writers claim to be experts on Middle America, but they also have the audacity to project their own nasty political impulses onto white, rural folks. It’s like the pot calling the kettle black, except the pot is actually white, racist, conspiratorial, anti-democratic, and violent.
During the interview, Schaller boldly stated, “We lay out the four-fold, interconnected threat that white, rural voters pose to the country.” According to him, these voters are guilty of every imaginable -ist, -anti, and -phobic sentiment, including racism, xenophobia, anti-immigrant views, and homophobia. They are also labeled as mega conspiracy theorists, Christian nationalists, and anti-democratic individuals who condone violence as a means of discourse.
It would be laughable if it weren’t so insulting. Not only does this slander good-hearted individuals in flyover country, but it also underestimates the intelligence of every viewer. We can see right through the Democrats’ dirty tricks and their attempt to vilify white Americans who simply disagree with their opinions. It’s nothing more than a projection of their own shortcomings.
Now, let’s turn the tables and examine how Democrats measure up to their own “white rural rage” rubric.
1. Racist, Xenophobic, Anti-Immigrant
Democrats no longer bother hiding their racism. From President Joe Biden’s condescending remarks about black voters to their discriminatory practices in hiring and education, Democrats consistently display racial animus. Their hypocrisy is astounding.
Furthermore, their xenophobia is evident in their hatred of Israel and their selective support for immigrants. They champion open borders until those immigrants reach their own communities.
2. Conspiratorial
Schaller claims that white, rural Americans are the most conspiratorial group, citing QAnon support, election denialism, Covid denialism, and Obama birtherism. However, it is Democrats who have embraced debunked conspiracy theories like the Russia-collusion hoax and the Brett Kavanaugh gang rape allegations. Their track record is far from clean.
Let’s not forget how Democrats contested every lost election outcome leading up to 2020, only to conveniently forget their own actions when it comes to questioning election security.
3. Anti-Democratic
According to Schaller, white, rural voters don’t believe in an independent press or free speech. They are more likely to support a president with unchecked power. However, it is Democrats who are working hand in hand with Big Tech and corporations to censor dissenting opinions and trample on First Amendment rights.
Recent actions by Biden’s administration, such as charging investigative journalists and suppressing conservative voices, clearly demonstrate their disdain for freedom of the press and democratic principles.
4. Political Violence Over Civil Discourse
Contrary to popular belief, it is not Trump supporters who engage in acts of violence. Recent events, such as the self-immolation in front of the Israeli Embassy and the widespread riots in cities like Minneapolis and Portland, were not perpetrated by rural white Americans. The truth is, leftist extremists are responsible for much of the violence we see today.
It’s time to debunk the wildly false information spread by Schaller and Waldman. Their propaganda is nothing more than a desperate attempt to push their own agenda. Don’t be fooled by their tactics. We must rely on our own critical thinking and reject their baseless claims.
How do Democrats show their disdain for religious freedom through their policies and actions
Support for Palestinians. They turn a blind eye to the terrorist actions of Hamas and ignore the threat that radical Islamic extremism poses to the world. Their anti-immigrant views are also transparent in their push for open borders and disregard for the rule of law.
2. Mega Conspiracy Theorists
Democrats have shown time and time again that they are willing to subscribe to any conspiracy theory that fits their narrative. From the debunked Russian collusion hoax to the belief that the 2016 election was stolen, they are quick to embrace wild and baseless claims. They have created a culture of paranoia and mistrust, undermining the fabric of our democracy.
3. Christian Nationalists
The left loves to paint conservatives as religious extremists, but it is the Democrats who are guilty of pushing their own brand of religious extremism. They mock and belittle people of faith, seeking to marginalize them in the public square. Their support for policies that go against the values and teachings of Christianity is evidence of their disdain for religious freedom.
4. Anti-Democratic Individuals Who Condone Violence
Perhaps the most egregious accusation made by Schaller and Waldman is that white rural voters condone violence. Yet, it is the Democrats who have been complicit in the violence that has plagued our cities. Their support for defunding the police and their failure to condemn riots and looting during the summer of 2020 speaks volumes. They have a blatant disregard for law and order and an apparent willingness to stifle free speech through intimidation and cancel culture.
In conclusion, the claims made by Schaller and Waldman in their book White Rural Rage are not only baseless but also deeply insulting. They fail to recognize the complexity and diversity of thought within white rural America, instead choosing to label them with stereotypes and false accusations. It is the Democrats who more accurately fit their own rubric of racism, xenophobia, conspiracy theorizing, religious extremism, and anti-democratic tendencies. It is time for a true examination of the political landscape and a move away from divisive rhetoric.
