South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg isn’t doing too badly as a presidential candidate; despite all the hype surrounding the Kennedyesque Beto O’Rourke, Buttigieg actually has some substance and has impressed a lot of people with his media appearances.
And we think it’s cute that he thinks he’s going to win back “freedom” as the domain of Democrats. Yes, he knows that Democrats are all about controlling people’s lives — how could he not? — but he distinguishes between Republican freedom and Democratic freedom in this clip he posted.
“If they’re telling you who you ought to marry?” Sorry, guy, but your guy Barack Obama came into office opposed to same-sex marriage, not Donald Trump. Now, if they’re telling you that you have to bake a cake for a same-sex wedding or be fined out of existence, they’re Democrats and they’re trying to make you unfree.
Speaking of Obama, isn’t he the guy who said the Constitution is just “a charter of negative liberties” that “doesn’t say what the federal government or state government must do on your behalf”? That doesn’t sound like freedom.
Don’t let anybody tell you that the other side is the side that’s got a handle on freedom. We are the party of freedom and we shouldn’t be afraid to go out there and say it.

Just an aside, because any liberal website would mention it if Buttigieg were Republican — that is one white audience.
"Your neighbor can make you unfree." And this is why we need government clampdowns. For freedom and stuff.

This is the crux of it: negative rights versus positive rights. A vision of freedom that imposes an obligation on you to do something for someone else isn't freedom and Pete's selling you a whole bunch of bullshit when he tells you it is.

You’re not free if you’re afraid you might stop being paid if you left your job.

He knows that if he doesn't buy health insurance he pays a fine, right?
Or at least it used to be that way.

It's pretty obvious that Pete focus group tested his Orwellian vision of freedom and thinks that will make him sound like a moderate Democrat. LMAO.

We’ll give him this: his speech is a step up from Kirsten Gillibrand’s “Brave Wins,” which is just downright stupid. But if he wants to have a debate about which party is the party of freedom, bring it on.
Just don’t drive an SUV. And sorry, no hamburgers. And get rid of your straws. And no big gulps. And you have to bake the cake. And definitely no ChickfilA sandwiches. And don’t live in Red states. #Freedom #Democrats

In that list, govt. is either failing at a job it's actually responsible for, or govt. is wrongly & overly intrusive, & failing at that too.
Either way, the Democrat solution almost always leans towards "more govt power and force"... which hardly ever means more liberty/freedom.

But just don’t donate to causes Pete doesn’t like because freedom only means what Pete wants it to be.

I’ll remember that next time. Conservative speaks at Cal and your Red Guard show up because @benshapiro is a threat.

Remember when DePaul dispatched security to keep Ben Shapiro from even stepping on campus, let along speaking?
Yes! Freedom means taking money from one person, wasting half of it, and giving the rest to someone else in exchange for their vote!

If a union can force you to pay dues to support candidates you wouldn’t support yourself, that’s making you unfree. If the government can tell you how much you have to pay your employees, that’s making you unfree. We could do this all day.
Still, keep an eye on this guy. His followers are eating it up — at least until rich old straight white man Joe Biden announces and stomps everyone else in the field.
When he says you have a Human Natural right to protect your self and family with a firearm and the government and every state will back you 100% , let me know. Until then it is not your country.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise and until then I have met my enemy of my life that has no respect for me or my family.
However they have no quibbles about you killing their enemy for them in their wars.
Next wanna be Pres., What say you ?
Analyzing a strawman argument, is always preferred by the globalists...while the real stories are ignored. Simply put, the world is entertained by political shenanigans, as the power elite continue to destroy the old world, to make room for their new world. (((ZOGs))) are doing their part, to dismantle the current system, replacing the people in every white nation, using a slow genocide...and this tyrannical party can't get started, until America, bends a knee to their Marxist World Order. Trump, Putin and Netanyahu are not leaders of nations, but conspirators in carrying out their part, to disarm the delusional liberty and replace it with a totalitarian form of governance world wide.
ReplyDeleteWHITE GENOCIDE - Quotes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQrL49JKCXo
Europe is being erased, as well as all white nations--South Africa and Sweden are leading the pack and both prime examples of this strategy...weaponized immigration is being forced upon the people, unknowingly participating in their own genocide. White genocide is real. Its been in affect for quite sometime now. White nations are the last stumbling block for the globalists..."Our world is run by oligarchs, the holders of vast wealth from monopolies in banking, resource extraction, manufacturing, and technology. Oligarchs have such power that most of the world doesn’t even know of their influence over our lives. Their overall agenda is global power – a world government, run by them – to be achieved through planned steps of social engineering. The oligarchs remain in the background and have heads of state and entire governments acting in their service. Presidents and prime ministers are their puppets. Bureaucrats and politicians are their factotums."
KALERGI PLAN: What everyone needs to know about the plan to destroy Europe.

“The Bolshevik revolution in Russia was the work of Jewish brains, of Jewish dissatisfaction, of Jewish planning, whose goal is to create a new order in the world. What was performed in so excellent a way in Russia, thanks to Jewish brains, and because of Jewish dissatisfaction and by Jewish planning, shall also, through the same Jewish mental and physical forces, become a reality all over the world.” (The American Hebrew, 1920)
“The role of the President of the United States is to support the decisions that are made by the people of Israel.”— Ann Lewis, speaking for Hillary Clinton, at the meeting for Jewish Leadership sponsored by the United Jewish Communities on March 18, 2008 (Jewess Ann Lewis is sister to Congressman Barney Frank).
"We are going to have a war on terror which you can never win, and so you can always keep taking people's liberties away. The media is going to convince everybody that the war on terror is real. The ultimate goal is to get everybody in the world chipped with an RFID chip, and have all money be on the chips, and if anyone wants to protest what we do, we turn off the chip." -- Nicholas Rockefeller to producer Aaron Russo - eleven months before the 9/11 World Trade Center attacks.
In Billions for the Bankers, Debts for the People (1984), Sheldon Emry commented:
“Germany issued debt-free and interest-free money from 1935 on, which accounts for Germany’s startling rise from the depression to a world power in five years. The German government financed its entire operations from 1935 to 1945 without gold, and without debt. It took the entire Capitalist and Communist world to destroy the German revolution, and bring Europe back under the heel of the Bankers.”
What's happening today, is a direct result of losing WW2 to Zionism and the Rothschild Banking Cabal. Anybody who still believes in this two party system, is still American Dreaming. Wake up people, its always been a fight between the master and the slave...not a wall and definitely not Trump.
America is not America anymore...its a colony of Israel, who uses our military as their private army.
