Liberal America Is Abjectly Terrible

Is this an endurance exercise? Do liberals think they can wear us down with their snobbery? That's what I'm going with because this reaction to the devastating tornadoes that struck the southern United States is quite something. It's not normal. It's straight-up not normal. We're dealing with a host of scumbags—and we have to share a country with these people. At least 70 people are dead. Over 100 are still unaccounted for after strong storms ripped through the region, Kentucky being the hardest hit. With devastation being total in a host of communities, the liberal punditry world decided it was totally fine—to lecture us about climate change and how these storms should be weaponized against Republicans. 

Yeah, that's exactly what we want to hear, right? Families are devastated. Some folks have lost everything—but remember, it's your fault for being a rural American. It's your fault for voting Republican. It's your fault for being poorer and dumber than the learned elites in the cities. That was liberal America's reaction to this tragedy. Forget that Kentucky has a Democratic governor—you don't really need to think too hard on this to see how abjectly stupid that take is on its face. And this isn't the first time liberals have tried to weaponize the weather to score political points.

Frankly, I'm pretty sure if liberals didn't overpromise, over-exaggerate, and give the game away by focusing on the means of production, they might have been more successful in making their points. Instead, they said Armageddon would be upon us. It never happened. It went from global cooling in the 1970s to global warming. Yes, I'm sure you can find the old Newsweek article about the cooling world and how the North American continent might experience re-glaciation, so fill the granaries with seed for the pending food crisis. It never happened. By 2013, the Arctic Ice Cap was supposed to be gone. That 2007 prediction ended with the cap growing by some 533,000 square miles. In 2013, NOAA recorded the calmest hurricane season in 30 years. It was also the quietest tornado season in 60 years. Haven't we been in the throes of global warming since the early 2000s, maybe earlier, according to these people? These folks seem to forget that we have had tornado and hurricane seasons for eons, which have already been classified as strong storms. This isn't anything new. 

The correct reaction would be to find an organization offering relief efforts. There will be toy, food, and blood drives. There are multiple ways to respond that don't involve making you sound or look like a jerk. But liberal America is loaded with condescending, terrible people who think their crap doesn't stink.

This is to be expected – the incessant urge to lecture the rest of us about the right way to live life, which is mostly about wallowing in misery over problems that aren't real. Normal Americans don't have the time to worry about neo-colonial bias. That's totally relegated to the rich, white, and uber-liberal elites who busy themselves trying to make this nation seem awful when it isn't. To the American liberal, everything and anything is wrong, racist, sexist, homophobic, and transphobic. Also, pedophiles aren't bad people. Only the rich and the entitled can waste their time on crap like this. The rest of us need to work, a word that liberal America doesn't know much about. They're too busy crafting policies to disincentivize the masses from working, trapping them in endless poverty, and scaring them into voting Democratic in perpetuity out of fear that such welfare programs will be gutted by the GOP, who only want to make sure that the safety net allows those to bounce back and not become entrapped.

These people hate us. And when bad things happen in areas where these white, snobby white liberals don't frequent, they view it as God's reckoning, which is ironic since liberals hate God. Also, just deal with the fact that Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell will remain senators from Kentucky if they have a pulse. You can't weaponize these tragedies because that would be nakedly craven. Also, Gov. Beshear isn't the left's cup of tea since he's not hardcore on gun control for obvious reasons. 

We don't need to agree with you, liberal America. The sick part is it bothers you that there are those who do reject your agenda. It ruins your day. Normal people view this as a disagreement and move on. You people have level-five fits that last longer than sorority catfights. We're dealing with a sick and degenerate slice of America that dominates the cities, which blessedly aren't most of the country.
