Like a petulant willful child who didn’t get his way . . .
Columnist David Brooks of the NYT wrote an opinion column openly and explicitly called for a mass uprising alluding to a Communist revolution.
It’s time for a comprehensive national civic uprising. It’s time for Americans in universities, law, business, nonprofits and the scientific community, and civil servants and beyond to form one coordinated mass movement. Trump is about power. The only way he’s going to be stopped is if he’s confronted by some movement that possesses rival power.
So, David, to hell with democracy and all of the people who voted for Trump and for the lawful changes the Executive Branch is bringing about? Wasn’t it you – the Rachel Maddow-David French-Never Trump types – that told us over and over again that Trump would destroy democracy? But you and the Left are hoping to do that.
You and the Left wanted, by hook or by crook, Kamala Harris to be elected. She would be a sock puppet for the coastal and globalist elites to continue the plunder of our country and our democracy!
If you, the reader, are a partaker of Deep State media (MSNBC, CNN, NYT, WaPo, The Atlantic, etc.) you know the propagandists are roiled. Trump is called a “dictator”, “fascist”, “oligarch”, “Hitler”, “Nazi”, and “racist.”
Trump and his voters, you see, are beneath David and the elite ilk he panders to. His op-ed rallying cry is to unite the self-important – the true dictators, fascists, oligarchs, Hitlers, Nazis and racists of the elitist Left.
I’ve written often about how the Left seeks power above all else. The Left will grab power by any means necessary including stealing elections, creating hoaxes about political opponents and J6, and lawfare. David Brooks, in this NYT op-ed, is seeking to aggregate “rival power” to overthrow the current government (so as to return to the “normal” chaos and destruction the Left is known for, e.g., keeping MS-13 gang members in the U.S.)
It is quite revealing that this is the same power hungry and polarizing David Brooks who gave an interview titled How to Know a Person with David Brooks for the Progressive Trinity Forum (a site where Our Spiritual Betters of Never Trumper ilk gather).
The interview blurb reveals two-faced David:
“In a society where so many feel unseen and unknown, how do we become the kind of people who deeply see and know those around us? The conflict and division in our society demonstrate the need for people committed to pursuing human connection, even across lines of difference. What can we do – as individuals and in community – that will help us really understand the people in our lives?
“David Brooks, author of How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen, joined us to explore what it means to know others and to be known by them:
“When I ask people, tell me about a time you’ve been seen, they tell me with bright eyes and joy in their face, they tell me about time somebody totally got them. Because seeing someone, if I see potential in you, you’ll see potential in yourself. If I beam my attention on you, you’ll blossom. And so it’s just super powerful to feel seen. But it’s also powerful and fantastic to feel like you’re the seer.”
Well, we see you, David. You are David with Trump Derangement Syndrome, a condition that blinds you to all else except the need for power to get your way. You have not seen or known the people who voted for Trump, which is most of America. You live in a credentialed elite bubble. You know those therein, ergo the rallying cry to them and the deep state in the NYT.
Here’s David in the same op-ed not “seeing” Trump:
[Trumpism] is a multifront assault to make the earth a playground for ruthless men, so of course any institutions that might restrain power must be weakened or destroyed. Trumpism is about ego, appetite and acquisitiveness and is driven by a primal aversion to the higher elements of the human spirit — learning, compassion, scientific wonder, the pursuit of justice.
David wants us to know that he is on higher moral ground than Trump and the vast array of people who voted for Trump. David Our Better has an aversion to what he ‘sees’. So, what was decided on election night must be overturned by one coordinated mass movement.
Brook’s civil war-mongering column ends with a phrase originating from The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels: “We have nothing to lose but our chains.”
Is David worried that he will no longer be seen in the role of credentialed elite and as one of our betters telling us how to live and see and “blossom?”
Here, we really can see David and his worldview – antipathy to any rule but his own. He wants to overthrow the current government by any means necessary and conform America to his image using elitist chains.
We have witnessed the managed decline of our country the last four years -our country being despoiled by liberal elites whose vision of the world is them sitting atop it dictating to the little people and plundering them for more wealth and power.
We don’t need more alarmist rhetoric about “Democracy!” from the Left. We don’t need a revolution. We don’t need a Color revolution (Democrats Plan For Color Revolution) that is being pushed by the deep state media.
Like a petulant willful child who didn’t get his way, there is nothing of Christ in the words of David Brook. There is, markedly so, plenty of self-righteous contempt for those outside David’s “normal.”
