Democrat Voters are Among the Most Gullible People on Earth
By Steve McCann <https://www.americanthinker.c
The primary reason the United States finds itself in its current predicament
is the vast number of credulous and miseducated Americans who, over the past
two decades, have blindly pledged their undying allegiance to the current
iteration of the Democrat party. They do so because they have been
willingly duped into believing that the political opposition, conservatives,
and Republicans, are the personification of evil who are hellbent on
transforming the nation into a dystopian nightmare.
The philosophical underpinnings of the Democrat party or the falsehoods its
elected members regurgitate are immaterial to their voters, as long as this
dire threat, as personified by Donald Trump in 2020, is vanquished by any
and all means possible, including unconstrained voter fraud and
manipulation.
It was this mindset that foisted upon the nation a senescent Joe Biden in
the White House and left-wing ideologues in Congress.
The landscape of America today is littered with innumerable crises that,
taken together, have the potential to permanently marginalize and transform
the country. Nearly all the current fiascos are deliberately and openly
being fomented by the American left and its wholly-owned subsidiary the
Democrat party, secure in the knowledge that once the nation is permanently
set on the track of a one-party fascist oligarchy there is no turning back.
Yes, a fascist oligarchy. While mindlessly voting for Democrat candidates,
the bulk of these easily exploitable voters do not comprehend that the
philosophical underpinning of the American left, and thus the Democrat
party, is a proprietary strain of fascism with its roots in Marxism.
Fascism is socialism/Marxism
<https://www.econlib.org/libra
capitalism. Whereas pure communism advocates the abolishment of all market
relations outright, fascism leaves the appearance of market relations while
planning all economic activities with favored state-sanctioned unions and
corporations. Whereas communism essentially abolishes money and prices,
fascism controls the monetary system and for all intents and purposes sets
prices and wages politically.
Under fascism, the state, through official agencies, controls all aspects of
manufacturing, commerce, finance, and agriculture, even though ownership
remains in private hands. For all practical purposes, near-universal
government licensing exists, as essentially no economic activity can be
undertaken without de facto government permission. Levels of consumption
are dictated by the state, and "excess" income and wealth must be
surrendered as taxes.
The concept of a corporate state has been a staple of the American left
since Franklin Roosevelt, an early admirer of fascism
<https://www.dailycaller.com/2
ism> . It was FDR that initiated the National Labor Relations Board to make
the federal government the final arbiter in labor issues. The National
Recovery Act governed all aspects of manufacturing and commerce and the
Agricultural Adjustment Act introduced central planning to agriculture.
Beginning in the 1960s, the American left took as their foundational tenet
rampant anti-Americanism. However, as the economic seeds of fascism were
already planted and generally accepted by a sizable segment of the populace,
it was a short leap, therefore, to become proponents of the economic
precepts of one of Marxism's closest cousins.
Barack Obama, marinated in this stew since his childhood, is chiefly
responsible for a hybrid of fascism evolving into the dominant philosophy of
the Democrat party. During his two terms as president, he was successful in
advancing the tenets of this distinctive American political movement by
adding one important ingredient. Obama orchestrated the confluence of the
economic tenets of fascism and the narcissistic anti-Americanism of the
1960s with the race-based philosophies and tactics the Nazis used in their
rise to power in the 1920s and early 1930s.
Among the tactics promoted by Obama in common with the Nazis are:
1. An obsession with race. The Nazis maliciously and falsely claimed
that the supposed inferiority of various racial groups throughout Europe was
responsible for all the theoretical ills of society. In the United States,
the left blames non-existent "systemic racism" by the White population for
American society's theoretical ills.
2. "Identity politics" or the promulgation of grievance-riddled
policies by government favored groups against unfavored groups in order to
destabilize society. Hitler fomented anger at Jews in Germany and in
America the left isolates white, heterosexual Christians.
3. "Wokeism" or "cancel culture." The Nazis staged book burnings and
incessant public and media intimidation to shut down any person,
publication, or institution that did not align with accepted ideology. In
America, the left uses incessant social and mainstream media intimidation to
do the same.
4. The Nazis manipulated a willingly allied German mainstream media to
relentlessly regurgitate outright lies, fabrications, and propaganda in
order to indoctrinate and deceive the populace. The American Left currently
manipulates a willingly allied American mainstream media to do the same.
Per Nazi dogma <https://www.inspiringquotes.u
you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come
to believe it. ...[as] the truth is the greatest enemy of the state."
5. Both the Nazis and the Democrats established a financially
beneficial rapport with the corporate class. In Germany, it was the
industrialists and in America Wall Street and Silicon Valley billionaires.
Both authoritarian parties did so by promising the corporate class they
would be left alone and given near-monopoly status if they mindlessly and
generously supported the Party.
6. The Nazis mobilized the Brown Shirts to provoke street riots,
property damage, and gratuitous violence in order to intimidate the populace
and marginalize the opposition. Their American counterparts have done the
same with Antifa and Black Lives Matter.
7. Both the Nazis and the American left fabricated or grossly
exaggerated events, such as the Reichstag fire in 1933 or January 6, 2021,
in order to turn the citizenry against their political opposition and
justify an expansion of their political and police power.
Among the contemporary end-products of these Nazi-originated tactics is the
political persecution and jailing without trial the January 6th defendants
charged with simple misdemeanors and the ongoing premeditated abuse of
government mandates to exploit the Covid-19 pandemic. Both tactics are
aimed at browbeating the citizenry into meekly accepting a quasi-police
state.
In the furtherance of fascist economic policy of centralized planning and
control with a veneer of capitalism, the American left and the Democrat
party have become closely aligned with and supported by favored unions and
major corporations
<https://www.americanthinker.c

finance, social media, health care, and the media/entertainment complex.
All the while undermining new business creation and destroying existing
small businesses as well as major corporations not in lockstep with the
regime.
The purpose of the "Build Back Better Act" currently winding its way through
Congress is to expand control
<https://www.dailysignal.com/2
crats-tax-increase-bill> of people's lives by reshaping and permanently
putting control of all aspects of the economy in the hands of politicians
and bureaucrats.
Despite decades of unprecedented prosperity and access to information, far
too many Democrat voters are among the most gullible people on earth. By
mindlessly voting for the Democrats, these same fools are complicit in
denigrating the nation's founding, denying its accomplishments, and
degrading the future for their progeny, all the while incomprehensibly
ignoring and downplaying how their own world-leading standard of living came
to be.
With so many not knowing who or what they are voting for, it is little
wonder that the United States faces so many crises today.
