‘The Hunt’ is canceled, but the left still pursues conservatives

Personal Liberty

"If we want to maintain our republic, and Western society as a whole, we need to remember the principles that we stand for, and reject the dictates coming down from maniacal politicians and bureaucrats who seek to slowly chip away at our individual liberties."

"It was disappointing when Hollywood temporarily canceled the premier of “The Hunt,” a movie where leftists killed Deplorables for sport. Don’t mistake this cancellation for a ceasefire. Conservatives may not be shot on the big screen, but leftist commissars are still gunning for us.

"The Washington Post’s Viewpoint section is proof. On any Sunday, the WoePost’s opinion pages read like the editorial page of the Oberlin College student newspaper. Feverish leftists imagine conservative shock troops massing behind every Chick-Fil-A (closed on Sunday, so storm troopers in the parking lot won’t interfere with business). A blast on a racial dog whistle will signal the beginning of a goose-stepping march toward Congress (also closed on Sunday and inactive for most of the rest of the year, too).

"Last weekend, a vile woman named Eve Fairbanks published an almost 3,000-word slander of prominent conservatives (for comparison, newspapers only allow me 800 words of calumny).

"She began, “After the El Paso shooting, Ben Shapiro, a popular conservative podcaster, asked Americans to draw a line between the few conservatives who are white supremacists and those who, like him, aren’t. [He complained] ‘Too many on the political left [are] castigating the character of those who disagree,’ lumping conservatives and political nonconformists together with racists and xenophobes.’”

"Eve then proceeds to give Shapiro his lumps by contending conservatives derive their inspiration from antebellum slavery defenders. “The reasonable right’s rhetoric is exactly the same as the antebellum rhetoric I’d read so much of. The same exact words. The same exact arguments. Rhetoric, to be precise, in support of the slave-owning South.”

"Translation: There is no “reasonable right.” All conservatives are racists.". . .
