Because @EllenPage Is Canadian, She Hates America and Wants Us All to Die

Posted on | June 16, 2016 | 60 Comments

“Extremely anti-gay, anti-bi, anti-trans rhetoric . . . is constantly creating a poisonous environment which leads to people hating themselves, people being violent towards one and other, to bullying, to abuse and it really needs to stop.”
— Ellen Page, June 15, 2016

There is a certain “Reichstag fire” element in the reaction by Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) to the Orlando massacre. If you were a paranoid conspiracy theorist, you might be suspicious about how rapidly this crime — committed by a registered Democrat named Omar Mateen — was exploited to promote the Democrat Party’s agenda. However, as I often remind readers, liberalism is not a conspiracy, it’s a consensus: Everyone employed as a producer at CNN is a Democrat who therefore shares a a common set of core beliefs with all the Democrats employed at Harvard University, at the New York Times and in Hollywood. Republicans are deliberately excluded from working in higher education, the entertainment industry and the news media, and so this Democrat consensus produces a lockstep conformity so automatic that we may suspect that it is centrally planned by a secret cabal.

Yet the George Soros/David Brock/Sidney Blumenthal Axis of Progressive Evil doesn’t have that kind of power. They don’t need that kind of power, primarily because of how the Left has captured control of university campuses. Roger Kimball’s 1990 book Tenured Radicals and Dinesh D’Souza’s 1991 book Illiberal Education were prophetic warnings about how political correctness was being imposed in academia. Many conservatives reacted with mocking humor — “Hahahaha! Look at what these crazy kooks are doing!” — and failed to understand the significance of the Left’s academic hegemony, in terms of its long-term cultural influence. If socialism and atheism and other left-wing beliefs were being promoted by university faculty, and if students who opposed these beliefs were subject to punishment for speaking out against the Left, how long would it be before these intolerant “progressive” attitudes were diffused throughout the culture? College students were being quite literally indoctrinated by Marxist professors and taught to view opponents of socialism as evil.

Cultural Marxism produces an attitude of left-wing intolerance that routinely expresses itself through accusations of ThoughtCrime — “racist! sexist! homophobe!” — which are often simply slogans. In many cases, these smears have no relation to the actual beliefs of the person targeted by such attacks. The Left uses “racist” as a synonym for Republican, and this attitude was already apparent in academia 25 years ago. We now find such reflexive partisanship everywhere in the news media and the entertainment industry, which are controlled by people who would never knowingly employ a Republican. To watch CNN now is like watching a 24/7 campaign commercial for Hillary Clinton, and none of the people who produce this Democrat propaganda — Chris Cuomo, Carol Costello, Brooke Baldwin, et al. — seem the least bit embarrassed by their work as dishonest partisan hacks. CNN’s deliberately misleading coverage of the Orlando massacre, which they refuse to treat as a terrorist act of Islamic jihad, is reflected in every other liberal media venue.

Orlando shooting with Chelsea Handler
— Los Angeles Times

Notice how journalists rush to provide free publicity for an interview on a Netflix show between a not-very-popular host (Chelsea Handler) and a not-very-popular actress (Ellen Page), promoting a not-very-relevant argument. The murders committed by Omar Mateen were not a result of generic “anti-LGBT rhetoric,” but were a result of Islamic jihad.

It is not rhetoric that kills people, otherwise I would already be dead. As a heterosexual white male Christian, I am more or less constantly assaulted by hate rhetoric from Democrats, who are determined to rid the world of Christians, white people, heterosexuality and the Republican Party (not necessarily in that order). Feminist baby-killers denouncing “toxic masculinity” and ranting about “rape culture,” mobs of angry black protesters seething with anti-white rage, atheists trying to eradicate Judeo-Christian morality — this is the Democrat Party in 2016.

Democrats hate Jesus. Democrats hate America and the Constitution. Democrats hate motherhood. Democrats hate babies and the Bible and, if you are a Republican, Democrats hate you — personally.

Ellen Page is Canadian. Why are Americans expected to listen to a Canadian lecture us about “creating a poisonous environment”? Also, Ellen Page is extremely short — barely five feet tall. If liberals think Americans need to be lectured about what violent anti-gay bullies we are, why can’t they find a full-grown American lesbian for this job? Why are we being lectured by midget homosexual foreigners?

There are lots of reasons to ignore Ellen Page, but if she’s so concerned about “violence towards LGBT people” shouldn’t she be worried about the bloodthirsty Muslim fanatics who throw “LGBT people” off roofs? Why can’t Ellen Page be bothered to notice that the Orlando killer was a bloodthirsty Muslim fanatic who pledged his loyalty to ISIS?

No, Ellen Page’s hatred of American and Christians blinds her to the danger posed by bloodthirsty Muslim fanatics.

Who hates America more, Ellen Page or ISIS? It’s hard to say.

What we notice, in these situations, is how the liberal media narrative is always determined by the political interests of the Democrat Party. Do you think liberals actually care about anti-gay violence?

Thomasena Mitchell and Kiara Johnson.

A chef at an uptown Charlotte restaurant told police she was attacked Saturday by a woman who hurled anti-gay slurs then body-slammed her to the ground.
“Never have I ever felt so alone,” she said. “I had seven girls staring at me, looking at me, with hate in their eyes.”
Charlotte police charged two 17-year-olds with misdemeanor assault and have asked the FBI whether the girls could be charged under the federal hate crime law. . . .
She said the assault occurred as she and a co-worker were walking home after work early Saturday evening. She said they passed a group of six or seven females and one male on Trade Street between Tryon and Church. Without any provocation, she said, one of the women yelled out:
“Hey, are you a stud?”
A stud is a euphemism for a masculine-looking lesbian. . . .
She said the woman then screamed a string of derogatory statements, including: “You’re a faggot. … You’re a queer….” . . .
Police arrested two teenagers about an hour later. Capt. Mike Campagna said that earlier in the day police had received reports about the group harassing other people.
Thomasena Michelle Chisolm and Kiara Marie Johnson were charged with misdemeanor assault. . . .
Both girls have been arrested multiple times before, but most charges were dismissed. Johnson was found guilty of breaking and entering earlier this year, and is awaiting trial on a larceny charge. Chisolm faces a trial on possession of a stolen motor vehicle.

Do you think CNN or the New York Times will notice a crime like this? No, of course not, because the perpetrators are black and the lesbian who got assaulted is white, and therefore it’s strictly local news.

The same principle explains why, when a bloodthirsty Muslim fanatic kills 49 people in Orlando, it’s not a story about the danger posed by bloodthirsty Muslim fanatic. Instead it’s an excuse to lecture Americans about how much we hate gay people. The principle that determines how the media covers such stories is always the same: “How can we report this in a way that helps the Democrat Party?” And this is why the media decides a Chelsea Handler interview with a not-very-popular actress is a Major News Story. The only people who hate America as much as liberals hate America are Canadians and ISIS, not necessarily in that order.

    If we assume that ISIS is (relatively) rational in picking its targets, who provides them with better success? The MSM has bent over backwards to place the blame on everything but ISIS simply because of the demographic of the victims.* Further, the Progressive Left seeks to use the attack to weaken the internal defenses of the country, thereby making it more susceptible to attack.

    Query what the reaction of the Left/MSM would be if fifty school children were killed in a Beslan-type event? Sure we’d hear the anti-gun rhetoric, but such an event would–much like 9/11–galvanize the country. Further, a whole lot of “iffy” progressive parents would suddenly rethink their opposition to personal, armed protection if their children’s lives were at stake and such over-the-top-anti-anything-but-radical-Islam coverage would soon be drowned out and the authors of same pilloried.

    *N.B. it is the Right which calls for vengeance against the perpetrators, not the Left which is happy to exploit the victims for political purposes. The LGBT community–those with eyes to see and ears to hear–are beginning to notice. The Left would–perhaps subconsciously–prefer attacks on designated “oppressed” groups, because it believes that such groups will never leave the fold no matter how shabbily they’re treated by the Leftist elites.

    Evidently so.

    It seems self-evident that, ultimately, all sin is sourced from pride. Pride thus being the “patient zero” of sin.

    Similarly, progressives are what they are because they hate God. God is “patient zero” of the progressive belief system. So, if you have some peaceful Christians on a street corner passing out tracts and spreading the Gospel to anyone who cares to listen, that is lightyears worse to progressives than a Muslim rape gang working over a little girl in Rotherham.

    Some day, if God visited hell and offered grace and a trip to heaven to any who would worship Him, not one single person would do it. They would slam the door behind Him.

    Contrary to what you say, I believe a Beslan type of Attack would call for gun control and not galvanize the country. I make you notice that the far majority of Conspiracy theorists that believe that 9-11 was an inside job are leftwingers. There might be someone like Alex Jones but the far majority are people pulling the lever for the democrats. Facts do not matter anymore. Since they cannot demostrate that socialism work after the collapse of the soviet union they need to find another ideologism to hang on to and that ideologism is that conservatives are Always wrong, mean and the source of all problems. If conservatives just for kicks started to campaign against something, let’s say ‘coffee is a health hazard’ you will find legions of leftists romaning the streets to protect coffee and say it is the most healthy thing ever.
    We are talking about people who consider logic and reality an option. They create their own logic and reality out of thin air and morph at their needs.

    As I said above, I’m sure the anti-gun rhetoric would continue, but the MSM could not blame other social justice strawmen for the attack. With the Orlando shootings, the default was “right wing Christian hate rhetoric” directed at the LGBT community creating an “atmosphere” which caused the perpetrator to lose it, instead of Jihadism. The identity of the victims gave the both the Jihadis and the MSM cover. If the victims were not part of leftist-designated “oppressed” group, the focus would necessarily shift to ideological motivation, i.e. radical Islam. Of course, there will always be people seeking to hide from the obvious by blaming the instrumentality of the terror, but I think more people would wake up.

    Interesting. My mother is English. I would say there is a bit of truth to that. I’ve travelled in the USA and England and in my experience Americans are very friendly and personable while Brits can have that stereotypical “stiff upper lip”. Some Canadians think our identity is rooted in differentiating ourselves from Americans because we are so influenced by your culture and media. It’s very insecure. I do not understand anti American sentiment. What sane person wants a weak America? What sane person wants a weakening of liberty? America is exceptional and needs to continue being so.

    I can understand Canadians being uneasy about retaining their own identity, seeing as something like 90% of them live within television range of the US.

    I also suspect much of the typical anti-American sentiment is good natured, like Texas and Oklahoma or Northern CA vs. SOCAL. And besides, every non American is required by universal law to hate McDonald’s (but they are of course permitted to eat there in huge numbers).

    But there are no doubt some Canadians who actively hate the US. On the other hand, so do some of my own fellow citizens. Much of the time I think we twice elected one of those to the White House. A lot of them write for the NYT and The Nation and other “elite” arbiters of proper opinion.
