Has The Left Won? They’re Already Creating A New System

A recent poll showed that Americans no longer value patriotism and hard work. The belief that the United States is the greatest nation in the world and is exceptional is no longer shared by many Americans. Is there any question why? Just look at what is being said about the United States and its history by progressives. And the reason we are seeing this assault is that the left believes by stripping away pride in our history and values, we will become dependent on government and part of the one world order.

Just look at how our history has been perverted:

The British were the heroes of the American Revolution and George Washington, and the founding fathers were the villains. Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant were no better than the Confederates they were fighting. Sound absurd or something that would be in the Onion or Babylon Bee? Sadly, it is what the far-left is indoctrinating in our education system and books.

In Hulu's “1619 Project” based upon the largely debunked New York Times 1619 Project by Nikole Hannah-Jones, the entire premise of the American Revolution is based upon the issue of slavery. The kindly British military and royal governors were trying to emancipate the slaves and the founding fathers took up arms to prevent this. Forget the concept of taxation without representation. Forget that the first shots were fired in the free colony of Massachusetts. Forget that Great Britain itself did not outlaw slavery until 1834. No, our progressive historians assert, the Revolution was fought over slavery and unfortunately the wrong side won. This goes along with the whole concept that America was founded to promote slavery.

But it isn't just the Revolution that is being rewritten. The Civil War is also. Lincoln was no better than the Confederates because one of his early solutions to deal with the former slaves included deportation. Never mind that the plan was never implemented and just one of many; this proves the banality of Lincoln. Ulysses Grant, who did more for African Americans than any President up until the Civil Rights era, is now a racist. Why? Because his wife inherited a slave who Grant freed.

But it is not just a few fringe historians. Look at the rhetoric of the Biden administration and Democratic leaders. American history is one of white supremacy and evil. We need equity to level the playing field. Hard work and rugged individualism is wrong. Americans must atone for its evil.

Today's progressives are the first in our nation's history who do not view America as the greatest nation in the world. In their view, our country is not the shining city on the hill that Ronald Reagan referred to. There is nothing exceptional about the United States. The far-left sees the United States as no better than North Korea or Iran, and some believe it is worse. That is why we are seeing this unprecedented attack on American history.

A decade ago, destroying or removing statues of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln or Ulysses Grant would be unthinkable.  Now it has become commonplace. American values are now frowned upon.

Why is this happening? If you strip away our history and indoctrinate Americans that all who were successful were tainted and evil, Americans will start to view their nation that way and give up on the drive and individualism that defined American greatness. The assault on American history and values is the left's final assault to make Americans of all backgrounds dependent on government rather than themselves.
