And despite Boyett's first marriage (1947-1950) to Willagene Wither ending in divorce, Boyett's second marriage in 1957 to Joan Amelia Reynolds lasted until his death in 2004, age 77, with nine children between them: Milner (who died in 2015 at age 83) had four, McCord had three, and Boyett (who died in 2004 at age 77) had two (with Joan) and became a grandfather twice over.

|1969-1974
|[[ABC]]
|TV-G
|Regarded as one of the last of the classic TV sitcoms before the [[Norman Lear]] era started, The Brady Bunch taught many life lessons about growing up such as building [[self-confidence]], working, and telling the truth. It also promoted heavy family values where even if there’s disagreements, the family always sticks together, and is happy. In one of the early episodes, it had Christmas special where Carol sings ‘O Come All Ye Faithful’ at a Church service making it one of the few [[List of Christmas specials that reference the birth of Jesus Christ|Christmas specials that references the birth of Jesus Christ]]. However, its messaging proved to be too late, as it’s ratings never broke the Nielsen top 30, while ''[[All in the Family]]'' reached number 1 in five of its nine seasons. The show’s cult following got it a poorly received variety show with the whole cast (except Eve Plumb as Jan), a miniseries featuring Marcia and Jan getting married, and a acclaimed made-for-TV Christmas movie in 1988. Following it was a 1990 continuation with a darker tone, and two theatrical movies in 1995 and 1996 respectively.

Furthermore, the series averts feminism as positive male and female role models are present: both Chuck's sister Ellie and her eventual husband Devon/"Captain Awesome" are equally competent physicians; and CIA agent Sarah Walker, who grows from being Chuck's cover girlfriend to being his real girlfriend and eventually his wife, wants to leave the dangerous world of espionage towards the end of the series with Chuck to start a nuclear family.

The show portrays several situations in which President Trump has been, and shows the protagonist doing exactly what President Trump has done in each one. When confronted with both Democrats and Republicans, the President decides to kowtow to neither one; in negotiations with North Korea, he uses both the carrot and the stick.

|''[[Dragnet]]''

|TV-PG
|Sgt. Joe Friday (Jack Webb) and his partners (Ben Romero, Ed Jacobs, and Frank Smith in the 1951 original, Bill Gannon in the 1967 revival) solving actual cases from the files of the Los Angeles Police Department (with people's names altered to protect the innocent involved in the cases inspiring each episode). The officers educate viewers in law enforcement jargon and the Rule of Law, all the while showing fine examples of moral conduct, honor of oneself and others, and sacrifice for the good of the public. The 1967 revival also included more contemporary themes, such as increased drug use in society due to the rise of the counterculture, along with hippies, leftist and racist revolutionaries and other products of the counterculture openly displaying their contempt for the law and those who enforce it, although such characters invariably pay the price by the end of each episode for their bad choices. A second revival of ''Dragnet'' was planned by Webb in 1982, with him reprising his Joe Friday role again and with ''Adam-12'' star Kent McCord cast as Friday's new partner (possibly reprising his Jim Reed role from ''Adam-12''), but the revival was shelved following Webb's death from a heart attack on December 23, 1982. In 1989, it was remade for syndication and was shown only in limited markets like Los Angeles and New York as ''The New Dragnet'' through 1991.
|-
|''Duck Dynasty''
|2012-2017
|A&E
|TV-PG
|This reality series portrays the lives of the Robertson family, who famously turned duck calls into the magnificent business empire Duck Commander, stand by their strong Christian beliefs, and are active hunters. Liberals despise this series so much that they conducted two ploys to damage this wholesome show's reputation. First, in the series' early days, the liberal parent network A&E censored any use of the word "Jesus" in the prayers that close most episodes. Second, in December 2013, the staunchly liberal magazine Gentleman's Quarterly (GQ) infamously tricked patriarch Phil Robertson, who founded the family business, into being open about his conservative, anti-homosexual values, which led to Phil (who is not uneducated, as he holds a master's degree in education) being suspended from appearing in further episodes for nine days. The magazine also accused Phil of being racist simply because he said he never saw the mistreatment of any African American person in his younger days during the Civil Rights era. Poor Phil wasn't saying that he wasn't unaware of the prevalent race issues in the 1960s but that he grew up in an area where people lived and worked in harmony regardless of skin color, so he witnessed no acts of racism ''in person''.
|-
|''[[Emergency!]]''

|''[[Even Stevens]]''
|2000-2003
|Disney Channel
|TV-G
|This wholesome family-centered sitcom follows the suburban Stevens family in Sacramento, California, with an emphasis on the dynamic between polar opposite siblings Ren and Louis, the latter of whom, despite his slacking and prank-loving tendencies, has his heart in the right place more often than his family realizes. While its main audience is intended to be children, it had a way of appealing to the whole family. Plus, it was the first live-action show of the Disney Channel of the 2000s, considered to be its best decade to date. In contrast to other contemporary sitcoms, patriarch Steve is fairly competent and mature as well as a voice of reason, although he does at times become very high tense and possess a short temper (which is usually justified due to Louis's antics). Unfortunately, this decade was followed by Disney Channel shows that are less classy, more obscene, politically correct and produced in formulaic, cookie-cutter fashion.

|''Father Brown''
|2013-
|BBC1 GPB4
|TV-PG
|A more successful reboot of the 1974 series. Aside from it having pro-Christian messages, one of the episodes also featured a condemnation of the [[Illuminati]] while another featured a condemnation of Nietzche's works. Due to GPB4's ties to PBS in the United States, it is also one of the few conservative shows on the otherwise ultra-liberal PBS.
|-

|CBS 1954-1955 and 1958-1960; NBC 1955-1958

Although the daughter; Erica seems to support Ronald Reagan's liberal rival [[Walter Mondale]] in one episode concerning the 1984 Presidential election, she still claims in the same episode "America is the greatest country", but politics is otherwise downplayed in the series, and the kids do learn over time conservative values such as hard work and getting along with their elders.

Popular throughout its run, ''Green Acres'', despite still being a solid ratings winner for CBS, ended up being one of the shows to fall victim to the Rural Purge staged by the network in 1971.

As with many other police shows made during this period, many episodes from the early seasons of the series (from its 1968 debut to about 1973-74) showed the contemptuous and disrespectful behavior and attitudes displayed by the then-current young generation toward the police and traditional values due to the influence of the counterculture, along with the consequences paid by those of the counterculture who choose to flout the law and societal norms.

The show also demonstrates how the Flemings show respect for animals while training them to respect humans. See Australia's ''McLeod's Daughters'' below.

|''The Invaders''
|1967–1968
|ABC
|TV-PG
|In this Quinn Martin-produced science fiction series, architect David Vincent (played by Roy Thinnes) discovers a flying saucer landing outside an abandoned diner one night and attempts, often in vain, to warn the public about the alien invaders (who almost perfectly resemble human beings, save for a few distinguishing quirks - most notably a crooked pinky finger on each hand that the aliens are unable to bend) and their plans to infiltrate Earth society, take the planet over and annihilate its human population.

The show's sci-fi format and alien invasion premise thinly veiled its political theme, particularly real-life concerns about the Communist invasion and infiltration of American society taking place during the [[Cold War]] (with the aliens serving as a analog of Communist spies and sleeper agents), demonstrated in the aliens' methods, very similar to the Communists' own ''modus operandi''; the use of lies, deceit and [[disinformation]] to fool officials and other members of the public, as well as [[discrediting attack|discrediting]], [[brainwashing]], [[mind control]] and violence to deal with anyone who has found out about the aliens' existence to keep them from stopping the aliens from executing their diabolical plans. A two-part sequel miniseries, with Thinnes reprising his role as a now-older David Vincent and also starring Scott Bakula as Nolan Wood (who takes up Vincent's mantle of warning mankind about the alien invasion of Earth), aired on Fox in 1995.

|''The Last Man on Earth''
|2015-2018
|Fox
|PG
|Despite being created by liberal ''Saturday Night Live'' alumnus Will Forte, as well as its outbursts of bathroom humor, this post-apocalyptic sitcom seems to show conservative, pro-family and pro-friendship values consistently winning in the end. Forte portrays the initially unsympathetic title character, the loser everyman Phil Miller, who believes he is the only human survivor after a deadly virus killed most of the world's human and animal population about a year earlier. He scours North America for other signs of life and, upon failing to find anyone else, returns to his hometown of Tucson, Arizona, where he engages in all sorts of hedonism and nihilism until he nearly attempts suicide. Right before crashing his truck into a boulder, he discovers surviving woman Carol Pilbasian, who believes in traditional marriage and encourages Phil to become a more moral and honest person.

As the series progresses, they are joined by more survivors, who are all consistently annoyed by Phil's selfish, nihilistic attitude and personality, thus inspiring Phil to give up his wasteful, adulterous, sinful habits and grow into a better man than he was before the outbreak of the virus. Each time Phil tries to deviate from traditional family values, as when he develops an interest in one of the other female survivors and either tries to woo her or prove himself more desirable than other men in the group, his schemes backfire, and his actions are punished. Thus, the series teaches that it is more admirable to be part of a traditional family than to have casual sexual relationships with multiple women. Lastly, the show may promote Christianity because being an apocalypse survivor has given Phil either new or renewed faith in God, who answers each of his prayers in one form or another.

|''[[Last Man Standing]]''
|2011-2017 (ABC) 2018-2021 (Fox)
|ABC & Fox
|TV-PG
|This refreshing sitcom stars Tim Allen as Mike Baxter, a marketing director for a sporting goods store chain called Outdoor Man, who strives to keep his manhood (fishing, hunting, sports and camping), and promotes conservative values (including supporting the military), in opposition to his antagonistic liberal daughter Kristin (the oldest of three daughters Mike has with his wife Vanessa) and her equally-liberal husband Ryan, who often clashes with both Mike and Vanessa over political, cultural and philosophical issues. Unlike the similar and more vehement clashes between Archie Bunker and Mike Stivic in ''[[All in the Family]]'' where the latter comes out on top due to Archie's ignorance and lack of ability to make cohesive arguments, the often clueless, dimwitted and hypocritical Ryan loses arguments with the more well-versed and level-headed Mike. Meanwhile, Mike gets along very well with his youngest daughter Eve due to their similar political views and interests, as he does with Boyd, Kristin and Ryan's son and Mike's grandson (as expected, Kristin and Ryan are not impressed that Boyd has more in common with his grandfather than with them).

Unfortunately, the liberal parent network [[ABC]] canceled the series due to its pro-Donald Trump humor, despite it having high ratings.<ref>http://www.dailywire.com/news/16317/despite-high-ratings-abc-cancels-trump-friendly-john-nolte?utm_source=dwemail&utm_medium=email&utm_content=051117-news&utm_campaign=position1</ref> This resulted in Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker taking to Twitter to denounce ABC for the decision,<ref>https://twitter.com/ScottWalker/status/862697237817765888?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailywire.com%2Fnews%2F16450%2Fabc-hit-boycott-canceling-last-man-standing-hank-berrien</ref> as well as a boycott against ABC and a petition demanding that ABC bring back ''Last Man Standing'', the latter getting over 10,000 signatures within the night the petition was first made.<ref>http://www.dailywire.com/news/16450/abc-hit-boycott-canceling-last-man-standing-hank-berrien?utm_source=dwemail&utm_medium=email&utm_content=051517-news&utm_campaign=position3</ref> When Country Music Television (CMT) picked up the series for syndication, rumors that it would continue the series started spreading.

|This very pro-family, clean cut, clean living sitcom follows a traditional nuclear family, the Cleavers, from the perspective of the younger of the two sons.

Osmond is still married to his only wife, Sandra Lee Purdy, since 1969, with whom he had two children, born 1971 and 1974 and after the original show ended, did something very opposite his "bad boy" Eddie Haskell persona: he became a police officer (Los Angeles Police Department) in 1970, retiring on medical disability in 1988 while repeating his original role in the 1980s cable-TV remakes of the original series; remakes that ran from 1984-1989 with a CBS pilot (first episode) in 1983 as a 20 year "reunion" TV movie titled ''Still the Beaver'', which became its own [[Disney Channel]] series from 1984-1985. In 1986, it became ''The New Leave it to Beaver'' on TBS until ending in 1989. Both the 1983 pilot and its following serieses had 'Beaver', 'Wally' and 'Eddie' as 1980s middle aged adults in a world of more depressing, serious and longer lasting 1980s problems.

|''S.W.A.T.''
|2017-Present
|CBS
|
|A reboot of the 1970s series. In addition to the overall story showing respecting the men in uniform and the police, the pilot episode had a condemnation of affirmative action as well as the main antagonists being a bunch of implied left-wing anarchists who were trying to deliberately fan racial hatred on both sides to introduce anarchy. In addition, the fourth episode, "Radical", has a condemnation of both Socialists/Communists and Professor Values, as the main threat in the episode was an expelled student radical who was going to blow up several businesses while repeating various rhetoric from left-wing socialist organizations like Occupy Wall Street, and the one who was responsible for the kid's actions was a professor in a political science course at the local college who orchestrated various socialist protests on the campus and was never fired despite his being the ringleader due to his having tenure (which was explicitly stated to have him completely immune from being removed from the school regardless of what actions his students took in his name unless he directly incited the students to commit murder), with their being depicted in a very negative light as a result. The second season's main antagonist was also an implied communist, and while it does show Chris adhering more to her bisexuality and also entering a polygamous relationship, the show nonetheless implies that it's ultimately a negative rather than a positive.

It is also the second-longest running primetime show, behind the ''Hallmark Hall of Fame''. It showed various Disney films and even showed some new stuff from the then-recently released Disneyland, including episodes like The Liberty Story, an anthology episode composed of the live action and animated Greatest Conservative Movies ''Johnny Tremain'' and ''Ben and Me'', both of which dealt with the founding of the country. Even when liberal Michael Eisner took over Disney, he largely kept the conservative elements of the show intact. It was ultimately cancelled on December 24, 2008 due largely to Disney having expanded its influence to other channels outside ABC, including the Disney Channel. Coincidentally, it both began and ended on a Wednesday.

|''G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero''
|1983-1989
|First-run syndication
|TV-G
|Based on the G.I. Joe toy line, this series stands tall as one of the most conservative, pro-military, and pro-American cartoons ever made. The opening narration for the show by voice actor Jackson Beck explains the series premise: "G.I. Joe is the code name for America's daring, highly-trained special mission force. Its purpose, to defend human freedom against COBRA, the ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world." The show carries themes of patriotism, friendship, and teamwork. The show's depiction of Cobra shows terrorism in a negative light, with Cobra using common terrorist tactics, such as violence and extortion.

The episode "Twenty Questions" paints the mainstream media in a negative light, with the media accusing the G.I. Joes of being a waste of taxpayer money, along with a conspiracy theorist claiming that Cobra is "fake" and their battles are "staged" (like the claims that 9/11 was an inside job to start the War on Terror).

The episode "Cobra's Candidate" has an anti-crime, pro-family message. The Joes attempt to encourage a gang leader, Selar, to stop her acts of violence. She is later encouraged to give up her life of crime when other gang members insult her younger brother and he becomes trapped in a burning building when Cobra sets off a bomb. The other gang members turn against Cobra when they witness this act of cruelty.

The two-part episode "Worlds Without End" has several of the Joes being transported to an alternate universe where Cobra has conquered the world, and they run it in a Communistic fashion where there are things like long food lines.

The show also condemns the [[Social justice warrior]] mentality. The episode "Let's Play Soldier" has a scene in which Gung-ho apprehends a Southeast Asian pirate who says "Please let me go, I am an only innocent pawn of a Capitalist machine!" to which Gung-ho replies "This guy must've studied Political Science at UCLA." The main focus of the episode is on a group of half-white, half-Asian children who are referred as "dust children" by the locals, which makes the episode one of the few depictions of [[racism]] by non-white people in any media.

The character Lifeline is a Christian. The episode "Second Hand Emotions" reveals that he comes from a devout Christian family but has a broken relationship with his preacher father over his choice to join the military since they are pacifists, even though he himself will not touch a weapon or do anything violent. He later reconciles with his father and the father admits that he loves his son. The episode ends with the wedding of Lifeline's sister and Lifeline's father (who is officiating the wedding) quotes Mark 10:9 "That which God has joined, let no man put asunder." Although it is a common quote in many real life weddings, this is one of the few fictional weddings to directly and explicitly acknowledge God.

|This cartoon, based on Mattel's "Masters of the Universe" toyline, is pro-heroism and pro-family. The protagonist has been derided by modern feminists as an example of "toxic masculinity" but is actually very friendly and easygoing and is only violent when necessary. The series emphasizes the familial relationship between Prince Adam/He-Man and his parents King Randor and Queen Marlena, between Teela and her adoptive father Man-At-Arms (Duncan), and between Orko and his Uncle Montork. The episode "Trouble in Arcadia" contains an anti-feminist message. The land of Arcadia is ruled by women and the men are enslaved because Queen Sumana believes women to be superior and men are only good for manual labor. He-Man changes her mind when he saves the mines under the city from collapsing and Sumana agrees to encourage cooperation between the sexes.

Poaching is shown in a negative light, with animals like pre-reformed Janja the hyena and the jackals actively disregarding the Circle of Life so that they can hunt everything in sight. Redemption is also portrayed well, with animals like the aforementioned Janja and the crocodile Makuu reforming from their villainous ways to cooperate with their fellow animals.

|YTV (Canada), ABC 1994-1996, first-run syndication (US), 1997-2001
|TV-Y7
|This Canadian CGI series was created by Ian Pearson and Gavin Blair, the makers of the CGI in the famous Dire Straits "Money for Nothing" music video. It takes place in a digital world called Mainframe where the Guardian Bob fights against the evil viruses Megabyte and Hexadecimal. His allies include Dot Matrix and her little brother Enzo.

The series contains pro-family themes in its depiction of the familial relationship between Dot and Enzo, with Dot acting as a mother to Enzo due to their parents being deceased. Dot is very caring and protective of Enzo, while Enzo looks up to his sister and affectionately calls her "sis."

The series promotes capitalism, as Dot is the owner of a Diner. In the second episode "Racing the Clock," Enzo aspires to be a capitalist like his sister by starting his own delivery service.

The series also condemns the use of smear propaganda. In Season 3, the show's original protagonist, Bob, has been thrown into the Web, and Enzo, having been recently made a Guardian, carries on in his stead. However, Megabyte uses his minion, Cyrus, to launch a smear campaign to turn the Mainframers against Enzo.

The series promotes redemption, as Cyrus eventually changes sides and helps Enzo win a "game" (a large purple cube that comes down and puts Mainframers in a virtual games world where they will be "nullified" if they lose to the Player Character, referred to as the "User"). Hack and Slash, Megabyte's two most prominent henchmen, as well as the virus Hexadecimal, also eventually turn good.

|When Aku, an evil shapeshifting demon, devastates a boy prince's land in feudal Japan, the prince is sent around the world to train to become the ultimate samurai warrior. He returns home as a young man and sets out to use a divinely-crafted katana previously wielded by his sage father, the unnamed Emperor, to slay Aku. Before the prince can strike the killing blow, Aku opens a time portal to send him eons into the future, where the demon rules the world. The samurai adopts the name "Jack" upon hearing locals repeatedly refer to him as such and vows to fight Aku's oppression until he can return to his own time and undo Aku's future. Not only is the inventive series famous for bringing many artistic and technical innovations to animated cartoons, such as slower, more cinematic pacing and extended stretches of time without any spoken dialogue, it teaches audiences to value hard work and persistence even when goals are seemingly out of reach. Likewise, it draws a clear distinction between Jack as a paragon of good (if not a Christlike figure) who values family, friendship, unity, and selflessly helping people in need above all else; and Aku as the ultimate form of evil (analogous to Satan), who compulsively, nihilistically, and relentlessly pursues his selfish ambitions because he cannot stop his own diabolical nature. In a few episodes, Jack collaborates with a brutish and boisterous but well-intentioned, unnamed Scotsman who is his sole equal in melee combat and subtly promotes the Second Amendment by using a submachine gun as both a prosthetic leg and a supplemental weapon.

|''She-Ra: Princess of Power (Filmation series)
|1985-1986
|First-run syndication
|TV-Y7
|The sister show to ''He-Man and the Masters of the Universe''. Although the titular protagonist, She-Ra herself, is female, the show does not promote radical feminism, instead promoting many of the same conservative themes as its spear counterpart. The pro-family themes are still present as the ''He-Man'' crossover episodes emphasize the familial bond between Adora/She-Ra and her brother Adam/He-Man and unlike a feminist, She-Ra does not act patronized by being protected by her brother. There is also a family bond between Glimmer and her mother Queen Angella and in the episode "Micah of Bright Moon," they are reunited with their husband/father King Micah. The series also has an anti-tyranny and pro-freedom message since the main characters are fighting in the Great Rebellion against the Evil Horde, a group of alien invaders led by the series antagonist Hordak. The Horde is shown to engage in cruel taxation in multiple episodes. The episodes "A Loss for Words" and "Book Burning" contain a pro-free speech message. In the former, the Horde's witch, Shadow Weaver, devises a spell that makes people unable to talk in order to prevent them from speaking out against the Horde. The latter is about censorship of information that goes against the Horde's [[narrative]]. Sadly, the series got a much more liberal reboot in 2018.

|Part of Japan's ''World Masterpiece Theater'', which adapted various beloved children's classics, ''Tales of Little Women'' is an animated adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's classic story of four sisters growing into little women set against the [[Civil War]], while skillfully expanding on the source material, including showing [[capitalism]] in a positive light, mainly in the form of Jo's boss Henry Murdoch, owner and publisher of ''The Newcord Times'' (who hires former runaway slave John Marty), as well as being as pro-family as its source material.

|''TaleSpin''

|TV-Y
|Baloo (A character who first appeared in Disney's 1967 animated version of ''The Jungle Book'') works as a cargo pilot for a small business called "Higher for Hire." The business is owned by capitalist businesswoman Rebecca Cunningham. Although Baloo's employer is female, the series does not promote feminism because Rebecca shows respect for Baloo when he does something good and she makes mistakes sometimes. The series is also pro-family, as Baloo serves as a father figure for his adopted son Kit Cloudkicker and Rebecca is shown to be a loving, caring mother to her daughter Molly.

The series also depicts Socialism, Communism, and Big Government in a negative light, as the recurring nation of "Thembria" (a stand-in for the Soviet Union) is a poverty-stricken nation constantly marred by big-government bureaucracy with long lines for basic government services. Its recurring representative, Colonel Spigot, acts like a Russian Commissar, constantly boasting about his country's "greatness" with no self-awareness of how terrible his country really is. Thembria is a Police State in which people are often charged with frivolous crimes as an excuse to imprison people. Thembria is depicted as having state-run media and total censorship of all foreign media. The state-run media broadcasts public executions to make "examples" of those who resist the State. Thembria's leader, the "High Marshall," is depicted as a totalitarian, egotistical Stalin-like figure who uses Communist cliches like "the people's [blank]."

|''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 series)''
|1987-1996
|First-run syndication (1987-1989), CBS (1990-1996)
|NR
|Loosely based on the comic book series of the same name by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. Four anthropomorphic turtles, guided by their Master and father figure Splinter, an anthropomorphic rat who was formerly human (as depicted in the show's opening montage), and assisted by their friend, Channel 6 news reporter April O'Neil, fight to protect New York City from the evil forces of Shredder and Krang, in addition to other villains and criminals. The series contains pro-family themes as the turtles are brothers and their mentor Splinter acts as a surrogate father, whom the turtles treat with great respect.

The series also depicts the Mainstream Media in a negative light, as the head of Channel 6, Burne Thompson, constantly attempts to slander the turtles and turn the public against them (much like J. Jonah Jameson from ''Spider-Man''). Also, in the episode "Turtles on Trial," a slimy, sleazy talk show host named "Clayton Kellerman" (an obvious reference to liberal talk show host David Letterman) mocks, insults, and slanders the turtles very badly, and even after they save his life, he still refuses to recant his slander because he "has a reputation to uphold and [he] didn't get it by being a nice guy." The only positive member of the media is April, who acts very much like a modern Internet pundit countering the slander against the Turtles and revealing the truth.

The show also has an anti-pacifist message:

In the episode "Hot-Rodding Teenagers from Dimension X" the "Neutrinos" are introduced as a group of Pacifists from Dimension X (The dimension where the main villain Krang and his Technodrome are from) who don't want to fight and just want to have fun. They are shown having lots of fun on Earth (without any teenage vices) and don't want to go back to the war in Dimension X. But by the end of the episode, they realize the necessity of fighting against the forces of Krang in Dimension X.

In the episode "Attack of the Big MACC," MACC is introduced as a soldier robot from the future who doesn't want to fight anymore (like No. 5 from ''Short Circuit''), but by the end of the episode, the Turtles convince him to become a "soldier for peace," indicating that peace will only come if it is fought for.

In "Planet of the Turtleoids," the titular race of anthropomorphic turtles are pacifists who live in the idyllic city of "Shell-ri-la" are defenseless against a two-headed dragon named Herman the Horrible (who turns out to be a machine piloted by two corrupt members of Shell-ri-la's own government). This demonstrates how pacifism merely leaves a nation at the mercy of any aggressor who might attack it.

The episode "Shredderville" shows the failure of a centrally-planned economy. In the episode, the Turtles find themselves in an alternate reality where they never existed and Shredder succeeded in taking over the world. Unfortunately, as "Emperor Shredder," he attempts to micromanage the economy of his "empire" but can't keep up with all of the repair requests and thus the world is in a horrible state of disrepair.

This miniseries is especially notable for the pilot episode ''The Mayflower Voyagers'', which due to it being bundled with ''A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving'' during Thanksgiving holiday airings is the only episode of the miniseries that actually gets reruns.

|''The Transformers''
|1984-1987
|First-run syndication
|TV-G
|The Autobots protect Earth and humanity from their old enemies, the Decepticons. The show makes a clear distinction between good and evil by contrasting the protective, charitable, and altruistic Autobots vs the misanthropic, self-serving Decepticons. The show also promotes family with the relationship between Spike Witwicky and his father, Sparkplug, and later Spike's wife Carly and son Daniel.

In the episode "Megatron's Master Plan," the Decepticons disguise themselves as Autobots in a [[False flag|False Flag Operation]] to frame the Autobots and they are helped by an unscrupulous human named Shawn Berger. As a result, the Autobots are banished from Earth, and the Decepticons take over and enslave humanity. Ironhide and Cliffjumper eventually persuade Optimus Prime to head back to Earth, on the understanding that it's better to protect the humans from the Decepticons even if they're not appreciated for it. After thwarting an attempt to push them into the sun, the Autobots liberate the humans from the Decepticons, vindicating themselves despite the lack of evidence of the False flag. In season 2, a new group of flying Autobots, the Aerialbots, are introduced. At first, they don't see the value of protecting humans since humans are smaller, weaker, and more frail than they are. Their attitude changes as they get to know the humans. The episode "Thief in the Night" eschews [[Political Correctness]] by depicting a Libya-like dictatorship called "Carbombya" and its dictator Abdul Fakkadi is an obvious reference to [[Muammar al-Gaddafi]]. Fakkadi is depicted as extremely egotistical and narcissistic, just like the real-life Gaddafi, and the name of his country is a reference to Gaddafi's support of [[Terrorism|terrorists]]. This episode offended liberal voice actor (and "Palestinian" sympathizer) Casey Kasem, who left the show over it.

|''Christmas Who''
|2000
|Nickelodeon
|TV-Y7
|Even though it comes from a television series called ''SpongeBob SquarePants'', which is arguably conservative, this particular episode is very great and conservative. It can be seen as both a parody of the classic conservative novel by [[Charles Dickens]] called ''[[A Christmas Carol]]'' as well as a Christmas special in its own right. After SpongeBob is introduced to Christmas by Sandy Cheeks (he humorously believes her treedome caught on fire, when in reality Sandy was putting up Christmas decorations), he is eager to celebrate with the rest of his friends. Squidward Tentacles starts out hating Christmas when SpongeBob first tells him about it, akin to Ebenezer Scrooge and his nephew, Fred, but ends up giving everything he owns to other citizens in Bikini Bottom.

|''Frosty the Snowman''
|1969
|CBS
|N/A
|This animated adaptation of the classic Christmas song of the same name follows almost the exact narrative of the song and has an element of redemption when Santa Claus has magician Professor Hinkle, whose magic hat animates Frosty, craft apology letters for his earlier selfish actions and promises him a new magician's hat if he succeeds. It celebrates the innocence of childhood as well because main human Karen sees no evil in Frosty while other adults do. At one point, Frosty selflessly leaves the train with Karen, knowing he won't be able to travel to the North Pole after doing so due to seeing that she's cold inside the cold storage box and makes sure to create a fire to warm her up. Later had two sequels, one called ''Frosty's Winter Wonderland'', and the other called ''Frosty Returns''. The former acted as the direct sequel to the special and hasn't gotten any airings, and the latter was more indirect and annually airs alongside the original special on CBS the day after Thanksgiving.

When the preparation for the photo appears to be a failure, several characters begin singing "When You Wish Upon a Star" to lift everyone's moods, showing that hope can thrive even in difficult situations (the photo does continue, after all, and is a success).

The special starred Jack Kelly (''Maverick''), Jeanne Cooper (later of soap opera ''The Young and the Restless'') and Pat Woodell (''Petticoat Junction'') as a family finding themselves subjected to the horrors of a Communist-ruled America in a nightmare experienced by the father (played by Kelly), with Peter Breck (later of Western series ''The Big Valley'') in a cameo role as a Russian Communist commissar and character actor Andrew Duggan as a "judge" in a Communist kangaroo court.

|''Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer''
|1964
|NBC
|N/A
|This stop-motion animated adaptation of the Christmas song and poem of the same name follows an origin story for the title fictional reindeer as he runs away from home as a child due to discrimination based on his red nose, then returns home in adulthood to overcome this prejudice (as an allegory for overcoming racism) to ensure that Santa Claus will be able to fly his sleigh on a foggy evening. He succeeds beyond the odds by focusing his mind on his individualist goal, as does Hermie the elf when he chooses to be a dentist. The importance of family comes into play as well since Rudolph, after returning home to his parents' den and learning they themselves have left trying to find him when he fled the North Pole, attempts to find them, saving his friends in the process from the infamous Abominable Snowmonster of the North. A subtle redemption theme is present as well because the Abominable Snowmonster, after getting his teeth pulled out by Hermie to neutralize him, ultimately helps make Christmas a reality and became allied with the Elves at the North Pole. Supporting character Yukon Cornelius is a northern explorer and a model capitalist, who desires to find gold and/or silver but eventually settles for finding a peppermint mine in an exclusive deleted scene. The special airs annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving on CBS.

|Four children deal with family problems and parenting. The season potrays discipline as positive, as the parents learn that a lack of discipline creates rebellious teenagers. Abortion is seen as abnormal. The only unplanned pregnancy that ends in abortion is shown to have devestating effects on the mother. The rest of the children are either adopted or raised by the parents.

|''The Beverly Hillbillies''
|1962-1971
|CBS
|
|Although it depicts a conservative family from the South as silly, the show powerfully illustrates how material possessions do not define a person. Buddy Ebsen stars as Jed Clampett, patriarch of the hillbilly Clampett family, who became multi-millionaires after Jed struck oil on his land in the Ozark Mountains and moved with his family to Beverly Hills, California. However, the Clampetts never let their newly obtained wealth affect who they are as people, maintaining moral and simplistic lifestyles throughout the show's run (except in a few episodes in the final season where several of the female characters fell under the influence of [[feminism]] and began pushing a feminist agenda). Irene Ryan stars as Jed's mother-in-law Daisy May "Granny" Moses; Donna Douglas plays his beautiful, tomboyish, and animal-loving daughter Elly May Clampett; Max Baer portrays the dimwitted yet good-natured Clampett cousin Jethro Bodine; Raymond Bailey plays unscrupulous banker Milburn Drysdale; and Nancy Kulp stars as Drysdale's secretary Jane Hathaway.

Popular throughout its run, ''The Beverly Hillbillies'' fell victim in 1971 to CBS' Rural Purge but has remained popular in syndicated reruns ever since and led to the 1981 reunion TV movie ''Return of the Beverly Hillbillies'', a 1993 TV special titled ''The Legend of the Beverly Hillbillies'', and a feature film remake of the series that same year. The film starred Jim Varney as Jed, Erika Eleniak as Elly May, Cloris Leachman as Granny, Diedrich Bader as Jethro, Dabney Coleman as Mr. Drysdale, and Lily Tomlin as Miss Hathaway, with a cameo by Buddy Ebsen (in his final acting role) as his other famous TV character, [[Barnaby Jones]].

|''Blue Bloods''
|2010-
|[[CBS]]
|TV-PG
|Conservative police officer show, that also promotes family. Stars conservative actor Tom Selleck as officer Frank Reagan (a possible name reference to Ronald Reagan). It also features Christian principles, with religion playing a fairly major role in several episodes, and each episode also ending with the Reagan family saying prayers before a meal (with such an overt depiction of Christian principles being rare on present-day TV). In addition, the series is clearly pro-Law Enforcement, with episodes dealing with conflicts between the city hall and the police force being present and the characters trying to demonize the police force, some of which including journalists, being shown in a negative light. This is ultimately necessary especially given the anti-law enforcement agenda being pushed in various liberal media.

That being said, however, more recent seasons of the series, largely due to the writers being replaced by more liberal writers, started adhering to more liberal and left-wing views, including moral relativism, leading to a decline in ratings as a result.<ref>https://www.conservativenewsandviews.com/2020/04/19/editorial/entertainment/blue-bloods-gone-oprah/</ref>

|Main character Captain Holt is an open homosexual in charge of the fictitious 99th police precinct in Brooklyn, New York City. However, his sexuality is downplayed for the most part, and this sitcom seems to humanize the police in an era when liberal news media does everything it can to dehumanize the authorities. It lightheartedly teaches that the police are kind, likeable everyday people with internal and interpersonal obstacles to overcome, and it averts the liberal idea that the police are "racist" with its multiracial main cast. On top of that, a number of villains that the detectives face are drug abusers or dealers, which supports war on illegal drugs, and Sgt. Terry Jeffords, one of the main characters, is a family man who prefers to act in the best interest of his wife and daughters.

Filmed on location in many exotic and mundane locales with actual law enforcement agencies, both here in the U.S. and abroad. On the other hand, the police are also clearly depicted in a positive light, which is ultimately needed especially in light of the liberal news media's current unjust demonization of them. The show unfortunately ended up cancelled by Liberal network executives due to the events of the Rayshard Brooks and George Floyd riots.

|''Dinosaurs''
|1991-1994
|ABC
|TV-Y7
|This work by Jim Henson of ''Muppets'' fame tells of a family of dinosaurs named the Sinclairs adjusting to suburban life after millions of years of wild living. There are Earl the father (a stubborn and bumbling ''Megalosaurus'' who works as a "tree-pusher"), Fran the mother (a down-to-earth ''Allosaurus'' who is a housewife), Robbie the son (a teenager who often questions the way dinosaurs do things like eating meat and howling at the moon), Charlene the daughter (a typical teenage girl), and the Baby (a fully-talking and rambunctious baby dinosaur who often calls Earl "Not the Mama!"). There is even Fran's elderly mother Ethyl, who dislikes Earl.

The show may have a lot of liberal subjects, but there are also some conservative moments as well. Earl tries his best to act as the father of the household in spite of his bumbling ways, while Fran makes sure to keep the house running from the homestead. There are times when Robbie and Earl clash over ideas (like Robbie wanting to be a vegetarian instead of a carnivore), but they make up at the end of the day and support each other. At his tree-pushing job, Earl works under the supervision of his boss B.P. Richfield, a ''Styracosaurus'' and the tyrannical and greedy owner of the WESAYSO Corporation. Friendship is even upheld in "The Howling", where Robbie helps repair the friendship between Earl and his co-worker Roy (a ''Tyrannosaurus Rex'') by getting them to howl so that they can get rid of their aggression; in that same episode, Roy even gives Robbie a pencil box as a present - the same pencil box that his father had given to him on his Howling Day - because he wanted to pass it on to someone in spite of not having kids of his own, thus he sees Robbie and the other Sinclairs as family. Another episode called "Earl and Pearl" ends with Earl reconciling with his country music-playing sister Pearl, even singing "Leaves and Trees" together at the end of the episode. Drug use is even condemned in a few episodes. One called "Steroids to Heaven" has Robbie eating little spiked creatures called Thornoids to impress a girl, to which his ''Polacanthus'' friend Spike - himself being a delinquent - calls him out for using the Thornoids and being aggressive as a result, trapping him with his newly grown spikes to wait until the effect wears off. The second called "A New Leaf" involves a plant that makes dinosaurs deliriously happy; Robbie even ends the episode by giving a speech warning against the use of drugs as well as humorously warning against the dangers of preachy anti-drug episodes.

In spite of these conservative moments, the show touches a lot of liberal subjects, from gender confusion to feminism. An episode even has a scenario resembling people coming out as homosexuals, only that Robbie wants to be more herbivore than carnivore and eat more vegetables, which Earl sees as going against the "natural order" (the food chain). Another episode features an in-show TV show about a dinosaur admitting that he's a "cross-eater" and says that he feels like a carnivore in an herbivore's body, which seems to be a metaphor for being transgender or a cross-dresser. The biggest subject the characters discuss throughout the series is environmentalism, from leaving forests intact to avoiding the eradication of endangered species. At the end of the series, wiping out a certain species of beetle that depends on a certain species of flower sadly leads to the eventual extinction of the dinosaurs, who face certain doom from the resulting Ice Age.

|The main protagonist, Timmy Turner, commonly wishes for things from his quirky fairy godparents that aren't the best, but he almost always learns his lesson in the end. The series, created by Christian animator Butch Hartman, exposes the dangers of wishing for one's personal gain at the expense of others. Furthermore, it lightly pokes fun at the public school system: Denzel Crocker, a teacher and a regular antagonist, is completely insane and obsessed with both giving poor grades and trying to prove to the world that fairy godparents exist for his own personal gain.

However, during later seasons, it has engaged in more liberal values, such as a joke in the series finale indicating that Timmy's father had gender confusion.<ref>https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e750e632fb32e537977853dd06fdb609bc776f04a81dab64be1fb9c5bd28ef1e.jpg</ref>

|The sitcom is about six young adults living in New York City. It often promotes alcoholism and sex outside marriage. But on a conservative note, the show condemns smoking and drug usage, and somewhat a condemnation of the homosexual agenda, as Ross’s life was negatively affected by his wife being lesbian, as well as Chandler's childhood being effected by his dad becoming a transgender. On top of that two of the characters; Ross and Monica are brother and sister, which could also give the show a pro-family aspect.

|A more liberal-leaning sequel to the consevrative ''Full House'', which debuted on Netflix in 2016 and promotes more liberal values and politics (including the trashing of [[Donald Trump]] in the pilot episode) and shows them in a positive light, as well as looking very much like nearly every live-action [[Disney Channel]] show produced in recent years. Series star Candace Cameron Bure, who appears in both shows and was also a panelist on ABC talk show ''The View'' (acting as the conservative counterpoint to the show's heavily liberal panelists; she left due to the bi-coastal commute -- Bure lives in northern California -- keeping her away from her family, as well as to focus on her work with [[Hallmark Channel]]), is a born-again Christian and is socially conservative. The show is still pro-family. Jodie Sweetin, who played middle daughter Stephanie Tanner on both shows, recently came out as a full-fledged leftist who supports both [[Antifa]] and the Revolutionary Communist Party and is also a supporter of abortion who took part with Antifa punks in a pro-abortion "protest" in Los Angeles in June 2022.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/06/fuller-house-actress-jodie-sweetin-joins-antifa-protesters-blocking-highway-la-gets-shoved-ground-police-refusing-complyvideo/ Fuller House Actress Jodie Sweetin Joins Antifa Protesters Blocking Highway in LA, Gets Shoved to Ground By Police While Refusing to Comply] at the Gateway Pundit</ref>

|''Gargoyles''

|The depiction of Businessman David Xanatos as a villain hints at anti-capitalism and the episode "Deadly Force" hints at an anti-gun message. However, the series depicts the titular Gargoyles practicing voluntary charity as guardians of humanity. The series is also pro-family, as the Gargoyles are like a family to each other. Also, the series is pro-law enforcement with NYPD detective Elisa Maza being depicted in a positive light. Elisa has a positive relationship with her family as well. The series depicts hatred and revenge in a negative light, as personified by the evil Gargoyle Demona. She is a misanthrope who blames humans for all of the problems in her life, yet it's shown that most of them are the result of her own treacherous actions (much like how black criminals who are claimed to be victims of "police brutality" brought the actions on themselves through their own bad choices).

On the other hand, one of the principal characters, the main character's sister, is a lesbian, with her father, a priest at the Episcopal church, implying that God is in her despite God condemning the practice of homosexuality.

|''Gravity Falls''
|2012-2016
|Disney Channel, later Disney XD
|TV-Y7
|Inspired by the life of its creator, Alex Hirsch, this mystery/science fiction/horror comedy series follows twin siblings Dipper and Mabel Pines as they spend as summer in the fictional town of Gravity Falls, [[Oregon]], investigating the supernatural oddities surrounding the town with guidance from one of three journals left behind by an initially anonymous author.

On the one hand, it stereotypes capitalists as either "criminals" or simply being obsessed with money: the twins' Great Uncle/"Grunkle" Stan is introduced as a relatively simple character whose only goal in life is to fool the "world's dumbest people" with a tourist trap dubbed The Mystery Shack and filled with pretend supernatural phenomena, hoping to earn their money. Even worse, throughout the series, recurring incompetent police officers Sheriff Blubbs and Deputy Durland are implied to have homosexual feelings for one another, and this is confirmed in the series finale.

On the other hand, family and redemption seem to be central themes of the series in the long run. When Stan's long-lost twin brother, Stanford "Ford" Pines, returns from being trapped in another dimension and reveals himself as the author of the journals, the brothers come to grips with their personal flaws, and Stan shows how he truly regrets leading a life of crime, wishing things could have turned out differently and calling himself "the screw-up". He gets his chance at redemption when he and Ford together outwit Bill Cipher, an interdimensional dream demon and the series' main antagonist, and erase the monster from existence, which causes them to mend their relationship.

|''[[Happy Days]]''
|1974-1984
|ABC
|TV-G
|Originally launched as a 1972 episode of ''Love, American Style'' called "Love and the Television Set" and set in the 1950s. The show was pro-family and celebrated family values, as the Cunningham family, the show's original main focus, always supported each other even through the rough times. The show is also pro-fatherhood. The show's main father figure, Howard Cunningham, is shown to be mature, calm and responsible, and always does his best to help his kids. Also a little anti-feminism, with Howard owning and running a hardware store and making all the money, and his wife Marion being the housewife. On the other hand, producers admitted to pushing [[pacifism]] and sentiments against the [[Vietnam War]] effort.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2011/jun/29/is-us-tv-too-leftwing</ref> Protagonist Richie Cunningham, a high school student played by Ron Howard as a regular from 1974 to 1980, is a supporter of the Democrat Party; as part of his school's Young Democrats club, he supports Democrat presidential candidate [[Adlai Stevenson]] in the 1956 election in the Season Two episode "The Not Making of a President" and, as such, is portrayed as young and idealistic yet naïve.

Debuting to modest ratings in January 1974 after ABC green-lit it to series, ''Happy Days'' became a huge hit in its later years after the emphasis was shifted more to formerly supporting character Arthur "The Fonz/Fonzie" Fonzarelli (played by Henry Winkler); a greaser, former gang member, womanizer, and high school dropout who nonetheless became increasingly popular with the series' audience and became the main focus of the show after Howard's departure. The series spawned several spinoffs, including ''Laverne & Shirley'', ''Mork & Mindy'' (created as a vehicle for stand-up comedian [[Robin Williams]]), and the animated series ''The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang''.

|2001-2006
|Cartoon Network
|TV-Y7
|A [[charity|private non-profit organization]] lead by American icons [[Superman]], [[Batman]], [[Wonder Woman]] and other DC characters fight to help the helpless and fight for justice. The event where they were formed featured a condemnation towards anti-Second Amendment policies, as a senator advocates unilateral nuclear disarmament, the result of which led directly to an invasion from Mars by the Imperium (with said senator actually being an agent that took the place of the real senator during a brief incursion to Mars), with the only one who realized the problem posed by nuclear disarmament being a general. The episode "Fury" depicts feminism in a negative light, as the antagonist Aresia, a rogue Amazon, intends to kill all men in the world with a deadly allergen. Even Hippolyta, the normally misandristic leader of the Amazons, and Wonder Woman's mother, condemns her actions and reveals that a man actually saved her life when she was a child. In addition, another episode, "The Terror Beyond", features themes of Redemption as well as an implicit acknowledgement that God and Heaven exists, as the character Solomon Grundy, an undead character, sought to die and atone for his sins, ultimately doing so in order to stop the Icthultu (an obvious reference to Lovecraft), with Hawkgirl, an alien who doesn't believe in Christianity due to her cultural background, nonetheless assuring him that his soul is waiting for him in Heaven on his deathbed. A similar promotion of redemption exists with Hawkgirl's arc, as after she was involved in an invasion by her species before having a change of heart and stopping the invasion, she has to undergo a lot of effort to make up for her role, eventually having a tie-breaker from Superman allowing her back into the league after sufficiently redeeming herself. However, the later episodes did start being left-leaning (probably being bullied by left-wing producers) as there is an episode that the villain Chronos plans to go back in time to undo the [[Big Bang theory]] and become a God. Another episode, "To Another Shore", claims that "[[global warming]]" may be real.

|''Kim Possible''
|2002-2007

|Although it was feminist due to the titular character Kim Possible tending to save the world and her sidekick Ron Stoppable generally being comic relief, it also was pro-family values, as it was notably one of the few Disney Channel shows where the fathers of the main characters (Kim and Ron) were not depicted as bumbling, buffoonish, childish, or as a jerk, and in many cases the fathers actually helped significantly to save the day. For instance, Kim Possible's dad James Possible is a friendly yet brilliant rocket scientist, and believes in family bonds, and often pushes his children to follow family values and also honor family. In addition, there were several episodes where Ron played a significant role in saving the world. It is also notable as being one of the few Disney Channel shows to actually break the 65-episode cutoff rule on the network.

Although ultimately promoting law enforcement in a positive light, the series eventually started pushing more liberal themes, usually by pushing twists that have the ones most likely considered guilty being in fact innocent, while white-collar characters are depicted as the villains, which former lead Michael Moriarity implied was due to the growing influence of one of the show's showrunners, Dick Wolf's hard-left politics.<ref>https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/michael-moriarty/2009/12/14/law-orders-persistent-leftward-lurch</ref> Is followed by a spinoff called ''Law & Order: SVU'' that was far more overtly liberal in its outlook (see its entry in [[Essay:Worst Liberal TV Shows]] for more details).

Although overall showing the horrors of the Nazi Party and its totalitarian aspects, as well as exposing elements of Hitler's character that weren't generally known (such as his having a very disordered personal life despite his emphasis on order) and also acknowledging the Communists and Soviets have committed atrocities, and even connected the Nazis to the French Revolution regarding inspirations, the documentary, or at least the first episode, repeats leftist propaganda made post-World War II of claiming the Nazis were a "far-Right" political party when in reality they belonged to the far-Left (and only being slightly to the right of German Communists/Red Front at most), and also implies in the third episode that Stalin and Hitler were ideological enemies when in reality they were closer to rivals regarding control over the Left. The final episode also implied that the Soviets' rapes of German women and various atrocities were the result of the Nazis' actions, when in reality the Soviets did them according to Communist ideology, and that the Nazis' invasion of Eastern Europe had played a comparatively minor role. In addition, although it alludes to a blood red moon as foreshadowing World War II when Hitler signed the pact with Stalin, it does not directly address the connection between it and visions given in Fatima, or indeed, any religious reasons behind the red moon in question.

|''[[NCIS]]''

|Show about U.S. Navy investigators, voted ''America's favorite program in 2011''; starring Mark Harmon and David McCallum. While it is generally pro-America and pro-military, it does include some unneeded and un-Christian activity and language. For example, The season 6 episode "Capitol Offense" promotes environmentalism by having a Senator sponsoring a "Green energy" bill that's being opposed by "big oil" (a tired old liberal myth and claptrap). He confides in Gibbs to cover up an affair he had with a dead female naval officer to make sure the bill passes. The season 7 episode "Faith" has a Marine who converted to Islam being killed by his younger brother and a Muslim Chaplain being targeted with threats, clearly promoting the liberal "Islamophobia" claptrap. It also promotes the theme park version of Islam that most liberals think it is. Ziva even talks about "intolerance" which a true Israeli Jew and former Mossad officer wouldn't do. A real Mossad officer would certainly know firsthand how violent the religion of Islam is, especially if her own half-brother was a Muslim terrorist. In addition, the Marine's father is a Reverend who says things a truly devout Christian would never say such as "he found his god" when talking about his son and a line from Gibbs promotes the myth that Islam and Christianity have "the same god" which is typical "coexist" nonsense.

One particular episode "History", also in the fourth season, has a condemnation of student radicals, many of whom were parroting statements by socialist organizations, with a professor being involved who had been formerly a member of the Gun Barrel Party, a Weathermen Underground-esque domestic terrorist group from the 1970s that was explicitly stated to be named after [[Mao Zedong]]'s statement about how "political power derives from the barrel of a gun" who used the faking of his death to undergo a new identity to try and teach generations to undergo his radical beliefs, and was largely depicted in an unsympathetic light, although it does falsely claim that the Occupy Wall Street crowd of not being terrorists despite it airing around the time of the Cleveland bridge bombing crisis that OWS was tied to.

|An anime adapted from a series of hugely popular trading cards and video games. The later seasons cut out the more conservative messages to promote more liberal agendas, including having the various female characters starting with May (most of whom are ten years old and thus still children) essentially act as sexual fanservice according to then-director Masamitsu Hidaka (and, at least in the case of the female leads of AG, DP, and XY, their goals of acting as Pokémon Coordinator and Showcase Trainer seemed to promote [[fashion industry values]]), as well as later on the story's refusal to allow Ash to win a league despite it being necessary to have him become a Pokémon Master (with the most infamous example of this being the Ash vs. Alain fight in the final round of the Kalos League, which had Ash losing against Alain despite the series, including the actual Japanese episode title for the battle in question, all but strongly implying the exact opposite), and eventually by Sun and Moon delaying having Ash resume his goal until nearly 40 episodes later, thus resulting in a more nihilistic view of Ash's goal. In fact, not counting Orange Islands, Ash wasn't able to win a League Conference until two decades after the show's premiere. In addition, a running gag since Hoenn and to some extent Johto has Brock constantly chasing women and trying to ask them out, depicting him as a womanizer in a more comedic light. Moreover, the concept of friendships that was strongly emphasized in prior seasons eventually got phased out due to them essentially dropping characters after each season with barely a reference to them.

However, the first few seasons showcased several conservative messages, including the strife to succeed even when the odds are considered insurmountable, as well as showing parental neglect and abandonment in a negative light in regards to the characters Brock and Misty, and to a certain extent one of the main villains Jessie. In addition, in the first season at least, there were also a few Christian references from Brock and Misty, and to some extent James. Pro-family values are present due to Misty becoming a mother to Togepi, and Brock also intending to aid his family when his parents weren't around due to the latter abandoning their children (or, in the case of the dub, the father abandoning them and the mother dying), only joining Ash after his father, Flint, returned and encouraged Brock to pursue his dreams. Was also anti-Hollywood Values as well, as the episode "Go West Young Meowth" showcases the more depraved nature of Hollywood, including at least one bickering couple, and does not treat it in a positive light, nor does Meowth's sweetheart, Meowzie, an epitome of Hollywood values, come across in a flattering light, with it also being heavily implied that this was the reason Meowth turned to villainy. Similarly, another episode during the first season dealt with a condemnation of fashion industry values as Team Rocket created a salon that heavily dolled up various Pokémon without taking into account their nature, which Suzie, Ash, and Brock condemned, and Misty initially supported to an extent only to pay the price later on when she tried to have Psyduck dolled up. One episode of DP also has an implicit condemnation of the homosexual agenda due to Brock calling Pikachu and Piplup (both of whom are confirmed male in an earlier episode) having an attraction to each other "unnatural." In addition, some episodes implicitly condemn the concept of Social Darwinism by showing various trainers who care only about Pokémon who are powerful and instantly abandon them if they show any sign of weakness in a very negative light.

|''Police Woman''
|1974-1978
|NBC
|
|While some may say it was made to popularize the feminist movement, it still does treat law enforcement with respect. Also, the episode "Flowers of Evil" did seem to anger liberals as it had a trio of women (at least one of whom was implied to be a lesbian) who run a retirement home who rob and murder the elderly residents (an action that could never be shown on TV in the current age of political correctness).

|''The PowerPuff Girls''
|1998-2005, Reboot 2016-Present
|Cartoon Network
|TV-Y
|On the one hand, the three titular superhero girls seem to be the only protagonists capable of fighting their city’s various supervillains, while the police, consisting mostly of men, are depicted as bumbling and oafish, making the girls feministic (It doesn’t help that one of the working names for the trio was the more profane ''Whoop*** Girls''). Moreover, innuendoes may be peppered throughout (and are more apparent in the 2016 reboot series, much to the chagrin of even the most devoted fans).

On the other hand, as the girls were created by a scientist to be the “perfect little girls,” they could be more feminine rather than feminist. They try to fit into traditional gender roles despite their capabilities, Buttercup especially struggles with this, and they learn family values from the professor who made them and serves as a responsible, knowledgeable, benevolent father-figure and a voice of reason well-versed in various scientific disciplines. Plus, the recurring antagonist “Him” is an obvious reference to [[Satan]], which hints at support for Christianity; and the devilish fiend is an androgynous being who demonstrates some effeminate traits, which unsympathetically depicts and satirizes gender confusion and homosexual lifestyles, respectively. In addition, a villain of the week, "Femme Fatale", was meant to be a condemnation towards the feminist ideology. On occasion, such as in the episode ''Cop Out'', does show the girls working ''with'' police, in this episode's case, against corrupt officer Mike Brokowski, who blames them for his lazy habits that get him fired, actively trying to ''kill'' them. (fortunately for them, they are immune to acid).

|-
|''Sailor Moon''
|1992-1997 (Japan)
|Fuji TV
|NR
|The series is (in)famous for its promotion of homosexuality with Kunzite/Zoicite and Uranus/Neptune (the former being changed to a heterosexual couple during the initial English localisation (Zoicite was changed to female due to having a slightly more feminine appearance) the latter relationship being altered during localization to them being "cousins", which despite the dubbing company omitting the kissing element, ends up implying that they were committing incest in the dub) and transgenderism with the Sailor Starlights. (it should be noted in the original manga, Kunzite and Zoicite were not romantically involved at all, having a more brotherly relationship, the original plan being that the four Shitennou to be romantically involved with the Inner Senshi, and the Sailor Starlights were simply female who disguised themselves as men as part of a plan to save their princess, the latter of which irritated creator Naoko Takeuchi slightly). On the other hand, it is also pro-family, as Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon) has very loving and caring parents whom she loves very much, though they do understandably scold about her grades. Rei Hino (Sailor Mars) is also very close to her grandfather, often taking care of him due to his advanced age. Ami Mizuno (Sailor Mercury) admires her doctor mother and wishes to follow in her mother’s footsteps and is also very hurt by her parents being divorced and the fact she only hears from her artist father once a year. Also, when Usagi and Mamoru Chiba’s (Tuxedo Mask) future daughter Chibi-Usa is introduced, she is shown to be very close to her parents and present-day Usagi and Mamoru take care of her like a little sister.

The series also contains themes of unconditional love, friendship, mercy, and redemption. Usagi and Rei tend to bicker and get into cranky arguments, but they still really care about each other. The recurring Dark Kingdom Villain Nephrite disguises himself as a human named "Masato Sanjouin" and one of Usagi's friends, Naru, falls in love with him. Naru still loves him even after learning who he really is and eventually, he falls in love with her. Nephrite ultimately sacrifices his life by intercepting an attack that was meant for Naru. In the second season (Sailor Moon R) both sets of villains (The Makai Tree Aliens and the Black Moon Clan) have very distorted understandings of what love is. The Sailor Senshi teach them what real love is. With the Makai Tree Aliens, it’s that love is given, not taken. With the Black Moon Clan they show the Four Specter Sisters that love is unconditional after each of them feels the rejection of their superiors and loses hope. Eventually, all four sisters become good after Sailor Moon uses her crystal to purify them of their dark energy. In the Starlights season, the villainess of the previous arc, Queen Nehellenia, is redeemed by being shown unconditional love. Sailor Moon also helps redeem the arc's main villain Sailor Galaxia by helping to purge the influence of Chaos and returning her to the good person she used to be.

There is a condemnation of the idea that positive ends justify negative means. In the S season, Sailors Uranus and Neptune believe it is necessary to sacrifice human lives to bring out the talismans from "pure heart" crystals. They also believe that it is necessary to kill Hotaru Tomoe to stop her Sailor form, Sailor Saturn, from destroying the world. Sailor Moon refuses to accept either premise no matter what, and in the end she is vindicated. The talismans were inside the outer Senshi all along and they didn't need to sacrifice their lives to bring them. Sailor Moon also succeeded in saving the world without killing Hotaru. In the Starlights season, everyone except Sailor Moon believes that it is necessary to kill Galaxia and Moon is the only one who has any faith that Galaxia can be restored to her old self.

The series also goes against the messages of modern feminism in that it promotes traditional femininity and traditional female interests. Even the most Tomboyish Senshi, Makoto Kino (Sailor Jupiter) is shown to have feminine interests such as cooking, gardening and figure skating, admitting to Usagi she took up her hobbies to get by since her parents died when she was young and so she wouldn't be as intimidating, due to being the tallest girl in her class as well as rumors she got kicked out of her old school for fighting (these rumors weren't true, she simply moved to a new town). Usagi also desires to get married and have a family with her boyfriend Mamoru which they do in the future as evidenced by their daughter, Chibi-Usa. Although Mamoru is 4 years older than Usagi, he is a gentleman and doesn’t take advantage of her youth and inexperience. As Tuxedo Mask, he is very protective of Sailor Moon, and she is very appreciative of his protection (in contrast to a feminist who would refuse male help).

|Although it does teach kids conjugated thinking skills, most of the villains are businessmen which some could argue is an anti-capitalism statement. In addition, the theme song was meant to subtly promote a pro-drug message.

|''Scorpion''
|2013-2017
|CBS
|
|A show involving four geniuses who try to use their gifts to prevent global catastrophes as well as figure out how to live among normal society in their spare time that's loosely based on the life of Walter O'Brien. It promotes the concept of using one's innate skills for good, as well as improving oneself, with one episode in the series also mocking professor values as well as the current university system. The first season also has some negative views on government encroachment due to Walter being reluctant to allow Scorpion to be used by Homeland due to them using stuff against his intention. Also has some pro-family values, due to Paige, one of the members of Scorpion, trying to be a good mother for her genius son, and Walter doing whatever he can to save his terminally-ill sister during the first couple of seasons, as well as Sylvester, another member of Scorpion, proceeding to legally marry (albeit in a civil rather than religious manner) his sister to stop Walter from unnecessarily keeping her alive against his sister's wishes, and Toby and Happy also making every effort to welcome their baby into the world due to believing the latter to be pregnant. In addition, one recent episode has Scorpion pitching in to aid in allowing Toby, upon it being discovered that he has a rare genetic defect that prevents him from having viable sperm to allow him and Happy to have a baby, to undergo treatment to allow them to have a child, specifically stating that they wished to ensure future members of Scorpion were born, which likewise hinted at a pro-life message and supporting the unborn. In addition, some of the main villains have also been Communists and various terrorist groups. On the other hand, it also has at times engaged in some more liberal themes such as environmentalism as well as some denouncement of Capitalism in later seasons.

|Many businessmen are made out to be dumb, Republicans have at times been depicted as evil, and family values aren't necessarily put in the best light. However, it still mocks liberal values as well as political correctness (including even showing the Democrats, via Springfield mayor and [[JFK]] wannabe Joe Quimby, as the corrupt and incompetent politicians they really are, although that being said, the character Lisa Simpson has occasionally been used as a soundboard for the more liberal views of the show), and although Bart Simpson causes a lot of trouble, he is painted out to be a "punk" rather than a "cool dude". This show is also known for being not as bad as the wretched ''Family Guy''. The show was originally a series of short skits on ''The Tracey Ullman Show''.

|-
|''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''
|1999-present
|Nickelodeon
|TV-Y / TV-Y7
|One of the most influential cartoons of the 21st century, centered on an energetic, anthropomorphic sea sponge (who more nearly resembles a kitchen sponge) and a diverse cast of his underwater friends, is decidedly one of the most politically ambiguous.
On the one hand, the series suggests that capitalists are inherently malign or simply obsessed with money, as the main character’s crustacean employer, the fast food restaurateur Mr. Krabs, is inclined to put money before others’ interests, sometimes at the expense of others’ well-being. In addition, SpongeBob and his dimwitted seastar best friend Patrick Star have a habit of annoying Squidward Tentacles, a grouchy octopus who lives between them, and tend to not face comeuppance for their childish actions (though there are exceptions), which may teach that being annoying is “acceptable” adult behavior. Specific episodes have controversial overtones, too. For instance, “Rock-a-Bye Bivalve” is infamous for depicting SpongeBob and his dimwitted seastar best friend Patrick Star raising a baby scallop like a homosexual couple. Moreover, one of the series’ worst-received episodes, “One Coarse Meal,” tries to make bullying look humorous because it centers on Mr. Krabs driving his microscopic arch business rival Plankton to suicide by appealing to the copepod’s secret fear of whales, a fear not present in any other episode. Worst of all, there is a theory that each of the seven main characters is modeled after one of the Seven Deadly Sins:
Mr. Krabs is avarice for his love of money.
Plankton is envy because he desires after that which Mr. Krabs has: a successful restaurant and the secret formula for Krabs’ signature sandwich, the Krabby Patty.
Squidward is wrath due to his irritability.
Sandy Cheeks the diving suit-clad squirrel is pride as she is immensely proud of her native Texas.
Patrick is sloth since he is often seen dormant.
Gary, SpongeBob’s pet sea snail, is gluttony because his character has little to do other than eat.
SpongeBob is a strange variant on lust: though the character is said to be asexual, he seems to have “lust for life” because, depending on the writer(s), he can be too fixated on his job (or even on Squidward) at times.

On the other hand, most episodes where SpongeBob works in his regular job as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab restaurant teach young audiences to take pride in hard work and persistence as SpongeBob strives to make the most out of his rather ordinary vocation. Most episodes where Plankton appears draw a clear distinction between good and evil, showing the errors of stealing and conducting business through illegitimate means as Plankton’s schemes to outcompete Mr. Krabs, the more competent businessman, or steal his Krabby Patty recipe backfire. Lastly, depending on the writer(s), Krabs can serve as a surrogate father-figure to SpongeBob, teaching him to stay out of danger and not to act so impulsively as he usually does. In addition, one episode advocates against gun control and showing the fallacy against the premise,<ref>http://rightwingnews.com/meme/spongebob-destroys-liberal-thoughts-big-government-gun-control-meme/</ref> and another episode promotes self-sufficiency and mocks the welfare state.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2013/11/04/spongebob-mocks-welfare-state/</ref>
|-
|''Squirrel and Hedgehog''
|1977 (North Korea)
|YouTube (Outside North Korea)
|NR
|The cartoon was created by the North Koreans as unsubtle propaganda for their Communist ideology, and in particular promoting the Kim Dynasty, and also showcases a significant amount of bloodshed by the heroes. That being said, however, its style in trying to propagate Communist values also unintentionally ends up promoting American and Western values due to the main villains, several wolves and other carnivorous creatures, being depicted as extremely competent and imposing and wielding high-tech weaponry, as well as the "heroes", despite being shown as herbivorous animals, being shown as particularly violent, as well as being more effeminate and crying a lot of the time thus unintentionally exposing the real horrors of Communist ideology as well, with several of the viewers when it aired outside North Korea nearly forty years afterwards liking the villains more than the heroes and specifically citing how the villains were depicted as extremely competent as a reason.
|-
|''Stargate: SG-1''
|1997-2007
|Sci-fi
|
|A sequel series to the film ''Stargate'', most of its main villains were extraterrestrials who posed as various pagan gods (namely Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Babylonian), and Colonel O'Neill was implied to be religious a few times. It is also to be noted that the Christian God is noted to be exempted from the main villains. That being said, however, it does occasionally mix up the Middle Ages with the Dark Ages, and in later seasons it does make a few jabs at then-President George W. Bush.
|-
|''[[Supergirl (TV series)|Supergirl]]'' (first season only)
|2015–2016
|CBS (first season)
|
|The show had some liberal elements, such as promoting the feminist agenda to some extent, and also having a degree of forced multiculturalism (e.g., turning Jimmy Olsen into a black man when he was originally a red-headed Caucasian in the comics). However, it also has some conservative elements to the show, namely pro-family messages, as well as the character Cat Grant in one episode expressing some regret for the fact that, when she got pregnant out of wedlock, she chose her career over her child (it should be noted that this would have been against the feminist agenda, since adherents to feminism generally reject any indication that a woman can't be satisfied by anything besides a career, especially being satisfied with having children and/or holding any remorse for giving up their child in favor of their careers.). The same episode also had her trying to reconnect with her child, who by that time was an adult, with Kara Danvers suggesting she reconnect with him, giving the implication that she ultimately carried him to birth despite choosing her career over her child, acting as a subtle condemnation towards abortion and a promotion of the right to life. In addition, environmentalism is depicted in a more negative manner due to the main villains, surviving Kryptonian prisoners at Fort Rozz, being sentenced there due to engaging in environmental terrorism in an attempt to save Krypton, and Kara Zor-El's uncle, Non, being an unrepentant mass murderer.

It also has a condemnation of terrorism as well as crime, as most of the first season's story arc dealt with locating and stopping various Fort Rozz escapees from causing any carnage on Earth, with most of the criminals being portrayed negatively, and even the sole Fort Rozz villain who does end up being portrayed sympathetically is made clear to have given up crime, subtly promoting the concept of redemption. The DEO also acts as a subtle allegory to ICE agents and border patrol and is portrayed as largely a force of good, which also hints at a promotion of national borders. The two-part season finale also dealt with the main villains' plan, Myriad, which involved mass mind-control which likewise had those affected by it making statements that eerily paralleled the statements made by liberal ideology.<ref>https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/karen-townsend/2016/04/12/supergirl-shows-liberal-fantasy-where-mind-control-answer</ref> Note that this only applies with the first season of ''Supergirl'', as starting with the second season upon its move to the CW, it went hard-Left in its political and social views (see main entry on the series for more information).

|SWAT Kats
|1993-1994
|TBS
|
|Chance Furlong and Jake Clawson are two former Enforcer (the show's name for the police) pilots who are wrongfully blamed for destroying Enforcer Headquarters when their boss, Commander Feral wants the glory of taking down the villain Dark Kat by himself and causes their plane to crash. As punishment, they are sentenced to work in a salvage yard to pay back the cost of the building. Using the military salvage in the junk yard, the build their own jet called the Turbokat and become the crime-fighting SWAT Kats, T-bone and Razor. The series de-values law enforcement by depicting the Enforcers as impotent against the city's many threats. The Enforcers' leader, Commander Ulysses Feral, is depicted as an egotistical glory-hog and hates the SWAT Kats for being able to accomplish what he can't. Sometimes the SWAT Kats even like to rudely rub it in his face. The series also promotes feminism by depicting Megakat City's male Mayor Manx as bumbling and incompetent while depicting the female Deputy Mayor Calico "Callie" Briggs as the one who truly runs the city (and also the SWAT Kats main ally, similar to Commissioner Gordon from Batman). The series also added a token female Enforcer, Commander Feral's niece Felina Feral in the second season, and depicting her as being more competent and reasonable than the other Enforcers.

That being said, however, the series also promotes themes of justice, heroism, and voluntary charity (since the SWAT Kats don't get paid for their heroism) and condemns crime. In the second season, Commander Feral's negative aspects were toned down and the character was depicted positively more often. The series is also pro-family as it shows Commander Feral having genuine love for Felina as well as concern for her safety. Felina also respects her uncle, even though she doesn't always agree with him. In contrast to other elements which promote feminism, the episode "Cry Turmoil" paints feminism in a more negative light with the villainess Turmoil and her all-female soldiers and pilots, of whom she believes no male pilot can out-fly until they engage the SWAT Kats. After capturing the Turbokat, she attempts to seduce T-Bone into joining her and becoming her second-in-command, which he only pretends to go along with it so that he can sabotage her ship and give Razor time to meet up with him. The episode also contains a theme of resisting evil temptation since T-bone admits being attracted to her in his inner monologue, and even remarks that "the Enforcers haven't exactly been our biggest fans."
|-
|''The Twilight Zone''
|1959-1964 (original run)
|CBS
|
|A recurring theme is that the selfish and the self-centered eventually lose what they sought to gain; hosted by Rod Serling. Examples of [[conservative]] episodes include:
*"The Prime Mover" (episode 57, March 24, 1961)<ref>http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/features/exploring-the-twilight-zone-57-the-prime-mover.php</ref>
*"The Obsolete Man" (episode 65, June 2, 1961) Sentenced to death by a totalitarian government that outlawed both books and religion, Burgess Meredith's character turns to his faith and his bible to console him
*"The Mirror" (episode 71, October 20, 1961), a scathing criticism of Communism and the [[Fidel Castro]] regime in Cuba; starred a pre-''Columbo'' Peter Falk as Ramos Clemente, a Latin American Communist revolutionary-turned-dictator based on Castro.

That being said, there are some examples of episodes that have some liberal and conservative messages being promoted at the same time:
*"He's Alive" (episode 106, January 24, 1963), it depicts the Neo-Nazi movement and Hitler in a very negative light. Although that being said, it also falsely implies that Hitler is the most evil person to have ever existed in the world, being comparable to Satan, when in reality, there were people far more evil and brutal than Hitler such as [[Mao Zedong]] and [[Josef Stalin]], and various Communist dictators.
|-
|''You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown''
|1972
|CBS
|
|An animated ''Peanuts'' special that aired before the 1972 presidential elections. On the one hand, it does show the electoral process in a fairly positive manner, but on the other hand, it does feature some elements of liberal values such as forcing people to vote for a particular candidate (specifically, one scene had Lucy threatening people to vote for Linus), and was largely cynical in its outlook.

Essay:The Anti-Star Trek Confederation

2026-01-24T04:59:18Z

Shobson20: /* Conservative Themes of the Confederation */

https://www.deviantart.com/therealh on this profile I've created a template for a conservative space Confederation that's an alternative to the left-wing Socialist Federation of Star Trek. Deviant Art is a cesspool of Porn and liberalism but I don't know where else to showcase this. Besides, Jesus spread his message to the prostitutes and thieves and didn't just stay with the "good guys." Start by Reading this: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Sci-Fi-Confederation-Overview-1260465736 Read all of the literature here to get a sense of how the Confederation contrasts with Star Trek: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/gallery/98911827/important-literature

=Conservative Themes of the Confederation=

*Liberty and Personal Agency: Article 2 is like the 2nd Amendment of the US constitution only far more expansive. It guarantees the right to bear arms is always a "right" and not a privilege granted by the government through things like permits. Constitutional open carry, castle doctrine, and stand-your-ground are universal constitutional rights as the founders of America always intended (the "well-regulated" in "well-regulated militia" means well-trained and regular, not restricted by government law, the big mistake all gun control is built on). Arms are not taxed or regulated in anyway in regards to purchasing, carrying, or just possessing. It's not up to the government to decide the standard of who possesses arms because they always set the standard badly.
*Pro-Family: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Mrs-Summerdream-part-2-1270793976 this is Lyralei Summerdream the wife of Puck Summerdream with three of their daughters huddled around their mother excited about the new baby sister who's in their mother's womb. Deviant Art has lots of people who turn pregnancy into a fetish for some reason, but this is meant to be a wholesome pro-family image. Puck (this guy: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Puck-Summerdream-render-1273712402) serves on the same ship with his younger sister Titania who is the ship's doctor https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Titania-Summerdream-Vajra-CMO-1263192946. Despite her frequent distain for how brutal her brother is in combat, she still loves him and his daughters always look forward to seeing "Aunt Tia."
*Gender characteristics as a feature, not a bug: female elf doctors, such as Dr. Liara Nightshade https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Liara-Nightshade-1262677249 and the healer elf nurses of a starship sick bay https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Female-elf-nurses-refined-1270101567 are well known in the Confederation for their feminine characteristics of nurturing and compassion, as well as a maternal instinct for their patients. Frontline infantry combat is left to the biggest strongest males of the confederation https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Brawny-starship-security-1266081387 and their monstrous tenacity is treated as a feature and not a bug (i.e. no "toxic masculinity" nonsense). https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Two-faces-of-Heidi-Orlova-1264626039 Heidi Orlova is a character who has lived through a terrible tragedy where she lost her husband and only son. Her family and her dream of building a family died that day. It's the kind of circumstance that often makes people say "God, why did you let this happen to me?" Instead, she plays piano and sings "It Is Well With My Soul" by Horatio Spafford, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY5o9mP22V0 who wrote the song after he tragically lost his daughters at sea. She never let tragedy make her a monster, she is still very caring and kind and very fond of children, especially little boys who remind her of her own son.
*Modest practical clothes: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Confed-armor-vs-g-fed-no-pants-1276277882 compare women's attire in the Confederation versus the "Galactic Federation" (a deconstruction of the Federation from Star Trek). The Federation women are wearing impractical leotards that I designed to mock the sexualized outfits that Star Trek costume design designer William Ware Theiss often created for female characters in Star Trek (including those go-go girl mini dress "uniforms" that the women were in the original series). Confederation women on the other hand, are wearing more modest and practical armored uniforms for gritty space travel and dealing with hostile space threats with peaked caps to give them a more Martial look. https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Sci-Fi-discussions-1260520390 this essay contains a section on Confederation civilian clothing standards. Basically it forbid any impractical clothes that only serve the purpose of triggering men's lust like halter tops, boob holes in clothes that serve no purpose except to show cleavage, and high rising "butt shorts." Shorts always have distinctive legs and never look like bikinis or "Daisy Dukes." https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Neha-Patel-in-shorts-1262245629 this is the highest level of visible skin confederation women will ever have in public because it's the only bare skin that makes sense for "comfort." Even then, this kind of clothing is only worn if it's hot outside or the woman is doing some kind of intense physical activity that makes her sweat. Otherwise, they dress like this: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Neha-in-a-cool-jacket-1260820285 with outer cover garments to cover their midriffs if men stare too much. That way they can dress comfortably yet have a way to preserve their modesty and dignity. https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/The-definitive-Confederation-women-s-swimsuit-1289185494 This is standard women's swimwear. This is the only skin a woman needs to show.

Essay:The Anti-Star Trek Confederation

2026-01-05T20:32:00Z

Shobson20: /* The Galactic Federation, The Deconstruction/Parody of Star Trek's Idealistic Nonsense */

https://www.deviantart.com/therealh on this profile I've created a template for a conservative space Confederation that's an alternative to the left-wing Socialist Federation of Star Trek. Deviant Art is a cesspool of Porn and liberalism but I don't know where else to showcase this. Besides, Jesus spread his message to the prostitutes and thieves and didn't just stay with the "good guys." Start by Reading this: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Sci-Fi-Confederation-Overview-1260465736 Read all of the literature here to get a sense of how the Confederation contrasts with Star Trek: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/gallery/98911827/important-literature

=Conservative Themes of the Confederation=

*Liberty and Personal Agency: Article 2 is like the 2nd Amendment of the US constitution only far more expansive. It guarantees the right to bear arms is always a "right" and not a privilege granted by the government through things like permits. Constitutional open carry, castle doctrine, and stand-your-ground are universal constitutional rights as the founders of America always intended (the "well-regulated" in "well-regulated militia" means well-trained and regular, not restricted by government law, the big mistake all gun control is built on). Arms are not taxed or regulated in anyway in regards to purchasing, carrying, or just possessing. It's not up to the government to decide the standard of who possesses arms because they always set the standard badly.
*Pro-Family: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Mrs-Summerdream-part-2-1270793976 this is Lyralei Summerdream the wife of Puck Summerdream with three of their daughters huddled around their mother excited about the new baby sister who's in their mother's womb. Deviant Art has lots of people who turn pregnancy into a fetish for some reason, but this is meant to be a wholesome pro-family image. Puck (this guy: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Puck-Summerdream-render-1273712402) serves on the same ship with his younger sister Titania who is the ship's doctor https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Titania-Summerdream-Vajra-CMO-1263192946. Despite her frequent distain for how brutal her brother is in combat, she still loves him and his daughters always look forward to seeing "Aunt Tia."
*Gender characteristics as a feature, not a bug: female elf doctors, such as Dr. Liara Nightshade https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Liara-Nightshade-1262677249 and the healer elf nurses of a starship sick bay https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Female-elf-nurses-refined-1270101567 are well known in the Confederation for their feminine characteristics of nurturing and compassion, as well as a maternal instinct for their patients. Frontline infantry combat is left to the biggest strongest males of the confederation https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Brawny-starship-security-1266081387 and their monstrous tenacity is treated as a feature and not a bug (i.e. no "toxic masculinity" nonsense). https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Two-faces-of-Heidi-Orlova-1264626039 Heidi Orlova is a character who has lived through a terrible tragedy where she lost her husband and only son. Her family and her dream of building a family died that day. It's the kind of circumstance that often makes people say "God, why did you let this happen to me?" Instead, she plays piano and sings "It Is Well With My Soul" by Horatio Spafford, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY5o9mP22V0 who wrote the song after he tragically lost his daughters at sea. She never let tragedy make her a monster, she is still very caring and kind and very fond of children, especially little boys who remind her of her own son.
*Modest practical clothes: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Confed-armor-vs-g-fed-no-pants-1276277882 compare women's attire in the Confederation versus the "Galactic Federation" (a deconstruction of the Federation from Star Trek). The Federation women are wearing impractical leotards that I designed to mock the sexualized outfits that Star Trek costume design designer William Ware Theiss often created for female characters in Star Trek (including those go-go girl mini dress "uniforms" that the women were in the original series). Confederation women on the other hand, are wearing more modest and practical armored uniforms for gritty space travel and dealing with hostile space threats with peaked caps to give them a more Martial look. https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Sci-Fi-discussions-1260520390 this essay contains a section on Confederation civilian clothing standards. Basically it forbid any impractical clothes that only serve the purpose of triggering men's lust like halter tops, boob holes in clothes that serve no purpose except to show cleavage, and high rising "butt shorts." Shorts always have distinctive legs and never look like bikinis or "Daisy Dukes." https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Neha-Patel-in-shorts-1262245629 this is the highest level of visible skin confederation women will ever have in public because it's the only bare skin that makes sense for "comfort." Even then, this kind of clothing is only worn if it's hot outside or the woman is doing some kind of intense physical activity that makes her sweat. Otherwise, they dress like this: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Neha-in-a-cool-jacket-1260820285 with outer cover garments to cover their midriffs if men stare too much. That way they can dress comfortably yet have a way to preserve their modesty and dignity.

Essay:The Anti-Star Trek Confederation

2026-01-05T20:17:16Z

Shobson20:

https://www.deviantart.com/therealh on this profile I've created a template for a conservative space Confederation that's an alternative to the left-wing Socialist Federation of Star Trek. Deviant Art is a cesspool of Porn and liberalism but I don't know where else to showcase this. Besides, Jesus spread his message to the prostitutes and thieves and didn't just stay with the "good guys." Start by Reading this: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Sci-Fi-Confederation-Overview-1260465736 Read all of the literature here to get a sense of how the Confederation contrasts with Star Trek: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/gallery/98911827/important-literature

=Conservative Themes of the Confederation=

*Liberty and Personal Agency: Article 2 is like the 2nd Amendment of the US constitution only far more expansive. It guarantees the right to bear arms is always a "right" and not a privilege granted by the government through things like permits. Constitutional open carry, castle doctrine, and stand-your-ground are universal constitutional rights as the founders of America always intended (the "well-regulated" in "well-regulated militia" means well-trained and regular, not restricted by government law, the big mistake all gun control is built on). Arms are not taxed or regulated in anyway in regards to purchasing, carrying, or just possessing. It's not up to the government to decide the standard of who possesses arms because they always set the standard badly.
*Pro-Family: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Mrs-Summerdream-part-2-1270793976 this is Lyralei Summerdream the wife of Puck Summerdream with three of their daughters huddled around their mother excited about the new baby sister who's in their mother's womb. Deviant Art has lots of people who turn pregnancy into a fetish for some reason, but this is meant to be a wholesome pro-family image. Puck (this guy: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Puck-Summerdream-render-1273712402) serves on the same ship with his younger sister Titania who is the ship's doctor https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Titania-Summerdream-Vajra-CMO-1263192946. Despite her frequent distain for how brutal her brother is in combat, she still loves him and his daughters always look forward to seeing "Aunt Tia."
*Gender characteristics as a feature, not a bug: female elf doctors, such as Dr. Liara Nightshade https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Liara-Nightshade-1262677249 and the healer elf nurses of a starship sick bay https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Female-elf-nurses-refined-1270101567 are well known in the Confederation for their feminine characteristics of nurturing and compassion, as well as a maternal instinct for their patients. Frontline infantry combat is left to the biggest strongest males of the confederation https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Brawny-starship-security-1266081387 and their monstrous tenacity is treated as a feature and not a bug (i.e. no "toxic masculinity" nonsense). https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Two-faces-of-Heidi-Orlova-1264626039 Heidi Orlova is a character who has lived through a terrible tragedy where she lost her husband and only son. Her family and her dream of building a family died that day. It's the kind of circumstance that often makes people say "God, why did you let this happen to me?" Instead, she plays piano and sings "It Is Well With My Soul" by Horatio Spafford, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY5o9mP22V0 who wrote the song after he tragically lost his daughters at sea. She never let tragedy make her a monster, she is still very caring and kind and very fond of children, especially little boys who remind her of her own son.
*Modest practical clothes: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Confed-armor-vs-g-fed-no-pants-1276277882 compare women's attire in the Confederation versus the "Galactic Federation" (a deconstruction of the Federation from Star Trek). The Federation women are wearing impractical leotards that I designed to mock the sexualized outfits that Star Trek costume design designer William Ware Theiss often created for female characters in Star Trek (including those go-go girl mini dress "uniforms" that the women were in the original series). Confederation women on the other hand, are wearing more modest and practical armored uniforms for gritty space travel and dealing with hostile space threats with peaked caps to give them a more Martial look.

*[https://meaninginhistory.substack.com/p/wheels-coming-off-2 Wheels Coming Off (2)] [[Mark Wauck]]'s take on the new National Security Strategy:
:''"the [[tariff]]s are intended to fund the [[AI]] tech lords who [[Trump]] wants to backstop (i.e., [[bail out]]). Another [[too big to fail]] scam. In other words, Trump told the [[American]] [[people]] another of his Big Lies—that furriners, who deserve whatever we dish out to them, would be paying those tariffs. In reality, as CJ Roberts recognized during oral argument, the tariffs are massive new [[tax]]es—added on top of the existing taxes by [[unconstitutional]] [[president]]ial [[fiat]]—that will be paid by We the People and the proceeds funneled to the tech lords for the [[technology]] that they hope will keep us under control.''

:''"The punch line comes in the third reference to tariffs, where we find the admission that “'[[China]] adapted to the shift in [[U.S.]] [[tariff]] [[policy]]”. In other words, [[Xi]] told [[Trump]] to take his deal making and stick it where the sun don’t shine. Instead of having his [[ass]] kissed, Trump got it handed to him by Xi. But think about that. The [[Tariff]] [[Shock and Awe]] was supposed to be the trigger to the Big Bailout for the Anglo-Zionist Empire. But without China, there’s not much to show for all the bluster."''
:It's a good read and well written. Do not misunderstand me - I am not a critic of [[tariff]]s. But Trump needed 8 consecutive years to implement such a dramatic switch in [[US foreign policy]]. In [[Trump 2.0]], tariffs are being compressed and rushed, which will have a big negative public backlash. I remain however, a big critic of [[weaponization of government]] and [[subversion]] of [[Trump 1.0]], which [[User:Conservative]] has aided and abetted the past 3 years.

===The [[full text of Trump’s 28-point Ukraine-Russia peace plan]]===
[[File:Provinces Of Ukraine Slated For Partition By The Trump Plan Were Part Of Russia Before The US Constitution Was Even Written.PNG|center|650px|thumb|]]
1. Ukraine’s sovereignty will be confirmed.

2. A comprehensive and comprehensive [sic] non-aggression agreement will be concluded between Russia, Ukraine and Europe. All ambiguities of the last 30 years will be considered settled.

3. It is expected that Russia will not invade neighbouring countries and NATO will not expand further.

4. A dialogue will be held between Russia and NATO, mediated by the United States, to resolve all security issues and create conditions for de-escalation in order to ensure global security and increase opportunities for cooperation and future economic development.

5. Ukraine will receive reliable security guarantees.

6. The size of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be limited to 600,000 personnel.

7. Ukraine agrees to enshrine in its constitution that it will not join NATO, and NATO agrees to include in its statutes a provision that Ukraine will not be admitted in the future.

8. NATO agrees not to station troops in Ukraine.

9. European fighter jets will be stationed in Poland.

10. US guarantee: The US will receive compensation for the guarantee. If Ukraine invades Russia, it will lose the guarantee. If Russia invades Ukraine, in addition to a decisive coordinated military response, all global sanctions will be reinstated, recognition of the new territory and all other benefits of this deal will be revoked. If Ukraine launches a missile at Moscow or St. Petersburg without cause, the security guarantee will be deemed invalid.

11. Ukraine is eligible for EU membership and will receive short-term preferential access to the European market while this issue is being considered.

12. A powerful global package of measures to rebuild Ukraine, including but not limited to: a. The creation of a Ukraine Development Fund to invest in fast-growing industries, including technology, data centres, and artificial intelligence. b. The United States will cooperate with Ukraine to jointly rebuild, develop, modernise, and operate Ukraine’s gas infrastructure, including pipelines and storage facilities. c. Joint efforts to rehabilitate war-affected areas for the restoration, reconstruction and modernisation of cities and residential areas. d. Infrastructure development. e. Extraction of minerals and natural resources. f. The World Bank will develop a special financing package to accelerate these efforts.

Russia will be invited to rejoin the G8.

14. Frozen funds will be used as follows: $100 billion in frozen Russian assets will be invested in US-led efforts to rebuild and invest in Ukraine. The US will receive 50% of the profits from this venture. Europe will add $100 billion to increase the amount of investment available for Ukraine’s reconstruction. The remainder of the frozen Russian funds will be invested in a separate US-Russian investment vehicle that will implement joint projects in specific areas. This fund will be aimed at strengthening relations and increasing common interests to create a strong incentive not to return to conflict.

15. A joint American-Russian working group on security issues will be established to promote and ensure compliance with all provisions of this agreement.

16. Russia will enshrine in law its policy of non-aggression towards Europe and Ukraine.

17. The United States and Russia will agree to extend the validity of treaties on the non-proliferation and control of nuclear weapons, including the START I Treaty.

18. Ukraine agrees to be a non-nuclear state in accordance with the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.

22. After agreeing on future territorial arrangements, both the Russian Federation and Ukraine undertake not to change these arrangements by force. Any security guarantees will not apply in the event of a breach of this commitment.

23. Russia will not prevent Ukraine from using the Dnieper River for commercial activities, and agreements will be reached on the free transport of grain across the Black Sea.

24. A humanitarian committee will be established to resolve outstanding issues: a. All remaining prisoners and bodies will be exchanged on an ‘all for all’ basis. b. All civilian detainees and hostages will be returned, including children. c. A family reunification programme will be implemented. d. Measures will be taken to alleviate the suffering of the victims of the conflict.

===Odessa===

:Here's the key to understanding the [[military]] situation: [[Zaporozhe]] will fall in 5 months. To take [[Odessa]] (and make [[Ukraine]] landlocked, cutting off its [[tariff]]-free [[trade]] in perpetuity with the rest of the [[planet]]), it must be approached from the north, meaning [[Nikolaev]] must be taken first. Nikolaev cannot be taken from [[Kherson]] because of the difficulty of river crossings (recall, Russia earlier [[Kherson#Russian_withdrawal_from_west_bank|withdrew from all territories west of the Dnieper]].) Therefore, the '''Dnieper River crossing has to occur at Zaporozhe''', and the territories north of the [[Kherson#Nova_Kakhovka_dam|Kakhovka Reservoir]] (where the [[Zaporozhe NPP]] sits on the south bank) have to be secured before an approach on Nikolaev ([[Kherson]] will eventually fall due to this northern approach, rather than a front-on approach across the river delta). [[Dnipropetrovsk]] & [[Kharkov]], each with a Russian-speaking [[population]] of more than 1 million, can be by-passed for now (but that won't preclude the [[NATO]]/[[Ukraine]] command structure in [[Wiesbaden]] from making the decision to dump tens of thousands of lives, needlessly, into a [[meatgrinder]] to defend dummy diversionary attacks. [[Referendum]]s there after the fighting concludes will decide between the [[EU]] & the [[RF]]. Basically, a question of [[Christianity]] vs. [[woke|woke ideology]] in a free, fair, and open [[democratic]] election.)

== Islamic lobby CAIR Says Muslims Have Right to Vandalize Christian Churches ==

[[CAIR]] Says [[Muslims]] Have Right to Vandalize [[Christian]] Churches.
Should Muslims have the right to vandalize churches?
October 3, 2025 by [[Daniel Greenfield]].
Muslims vandalized the Uncommon Church in Euless TX with obscene anti-Israel graffiti. Leftists and the Islamist group CAIR quickly came to their defense, complaining that vandalizing churches is really protected by the First Amendment.
After Raunaq Alam, Afsheen Khan and Julia Venzor vandalized the church, the Dallas Observer claimed that prosecuting them “erodes the First Amendment rights of protesters and critics of the nation of Israel.”
The First Amendment protects the rights of people to express their opinion, not to vandalize a church.
The Uncommon Church had put up a flag in solidarity with Israel after Oct 7 as part of its Christian beliefs. Targeting the church over its beliefs is correctly, an anti-religious hate crime.

:[Grok: '''Do anti-Semites view hate crime legislation as a Jewish conspiracy?] "Yes,''' a subset of anti-Semites explicitly promotes the conspiracy theory that hate crime legislation—along with related hate speech laws—is a Jewish-orchestrated plot designed to suppress criticism of Jews, Israel, or Zionism, often framing it as a tool for censorship or control. This narrative frequently ties into broader antisemitic tropes, such as the "international Jewish conspiracy" to dominate institutions like law, media, and government. Proponents often claim these laws were invented or pushed by Jewish organizations like the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) to criminalize "truth-telling" about alleged Jewish influence, equating anti-Zionism or general dissent with hate crimes.

:This view appears prominently in '''far-right online spaces''', where users allege that Jews fabricate antisemitic incidents (e.g., hoax hate crimes) to justify expanding such laws, which they say disproportionately target non-Jews or "whites" while shielding Jewish power. For instance, critics have called hate crime categories a "Jewish hoax" to "stifle free speech," or accused Jewish lobbies of using them to equate biblical or cultural critiques (e.g., of Christianity) with antisemitism. Historically, this echoes Nazi-era propaganda portraying Jews as manipulators of legal systems to undermine "Aryan" societies.

:Not all opponents of hate crime laws hold antisemitic views—debates often center on free speech concerns without ethnic targeting—but the conspiracy framing is a recurring antisemitic motif, amplified amid recent global tensions like the Israel-Hamas conflict. Organizations tracking antisemitism, such as the ADL and OSCE, classify these claims as modern iterations of classic blood libels or power myths."

The entire [[Russian]] population knows that Zelensky is an unelected [[dictator]] who's term of office expired in May 2024. There is no way in hadas that [[Putin]] can meet with him as an "equal", or sign a "[[peace]]" agreement with him.

The Russians are wary of ANY "written" "guarantee" from [[the West]], beginning with the pledge not to move "one inch east" of the [[Oder-Neisse line]] after the reunification of Germany, the guarantees for elections in [[Ukraine]] the night before the [[Maidan coup]], the two [[Minsk Accords]], etc., least of all from a [[dictator]] in Ukraine with no [[legal]] authority.

===[[Robert Barnes]]: Trump support and enthusiasm slipping among “new” Trump voters===
—heavily young and minority voters. These were voters who responded to Trump’s [[peace]] [[rhetoric]] and are now disillusioned with Trump’s [[policy]] switcheroos on this and other matters. [https://youtu.be/V8IqbF_bj4o] Polls show most [[American]]s oppose a new [[war]] in [[Venezuela]], as Trump failed to deliver his promises on ending the [[war in Ukraine]].

===Derailing his own [[stupid]] thread===

Donald Trump is a three times winner of Conservapedia's Conservative of the year and probably will win in 2025 too. The somewhat flakey MTG (conspiracy theories) won merely once. Massey merely won once. Do I wish that Trump had a smaller federal budget? Of course. Do I wish he were less of a troll king his second term and more of consensus builder. Yes. But at the end of the day, he is head and shoulders above Kamala Harris so I voted for him again. Trump is certainly not perfect, but he is a better than a Democrat. And I certainly don't lionize Trump like some hyper Russophilia type people do with Vladimir Putin.

BOOM!’ Conservatives Applaud Erika Kirk’s Stunning Takedown of [[Candace Owens]].
Conservatives are applauding Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk after the grieving widow delivered a stunning takedown of the conspiracy theories about her husband’s death in what is widely being viewed as a rebuke of Candace Owens.
Owens has promoted countless conspiracy theories about Charlie Kirk’s assassination over the last few months, even going so far as to implicate some of his closest friends and coworkers in what she has described as a plot to betray him.
On Wednesday, Erika Kirk took to Fox News’ Outnumbered to condemn these efforts.

The recruiting by President Trump of Muslim Brotherhood countries such as Turkey and Qatar, as well as other Arab countries, in order to dismantle Hamas’s terror capabilities and rebuild Gaza as a potential pathway to a Palestinian state, each pose uncertain security implications for Israel.}}

::::'''Summary:''' "Many American conservatives oppose hate crime laws primarily because they view them as violating principles of equal justice under the law, punishing thought or motive rather than action alone, risking inconsistent or politicized enforcement, and potentially infringing on free speech—preferring instead that all violent crimes be prosecuted equally regardless of bias motivation."

:Actually, the Russians shot down a little more than half of the 91 [[drone]]s as soon as they crossed the Russian border, allowing the rest to proceed to Putin's residence (a complex of 80 buildings) and strategic nuclear command center, knowing they would all be shot down, and while collecting the flight data information to prove it was an assassination attempt on the nation's leader in violation of all protocols.

Time to impeach.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 11:19, January 3, 2026 (EST)

In 2023, Joe Biden authorized then Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo to create and maintain a [https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/07/18/2024-15258/redesignation-of-regulations-for-securing-the-information-and-communications-technology-and-services list of foreign adversaries]. For the first time in its history, the United States government would formally designate a foreign nation as its enemy, without a congressional declaration of war or other congressional authorization of military action.

As of July 2024, the list consisted of the following six nations:

*China
*Cuba
*Iran
*North Korea
*Russia
*Venezuela

After being re-elected later that year, Donald Trump appointed Howard Lutnick as Secretary of Commerce. As Secretary of Commerce, one of Lutnick's tasks was to review the list that Raimondo had created and maintained. And being a Zionist Neocon who according to Alex Jones is a likely Epstein client, he (presumably) affirmed every single one of the countries on Raimondo's list.

That is why Trump attacked Venezuela and kidnapped Maduro today. This was not, nor was it ever, about drugs. It was about enforcing the Deep State's undeclared war. The other five countries on the list are next, and World War III is inevitable unless we get a President who is actually serious about dismantling the Deep State bureaucracy.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 11:44, January 3, 2026 (EST)

Essay:The Anti-Star Trek Confederation

2026-01-05T20:09:44Z

Shobson20:

https://www.deviantart.com/therealh on this profile I've created a template for a conservative space Confederation that's an alternative to the left-wing Socialist Federation of Star Trek. Deviant Art is a cesspool of Porn and liberalism but I don't know where else to showcase this. Besides, Jesus spread his message to the prostitutes and thieves and didn't just stay with the "good guys." Start by Reading this: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Sci-Fi-Confederation-Overview-1260465736 Read all of the literature here to get a sense of how the Confederation contrasts with Star Trek: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/gallery/98911827/important-literature

=Conservative Themes of the Confederation=

*Liberty and Personal Agency: Article 2 is like the 2nd Amendment of the US constitution only far more expansive. It guarantees the right to bear arms is always a "right" and not a privilege granted by the government through things like permits. Constitutional open carry, castle doctrine, and stand-your-ground are universal constitutional rights as the founders of America always intended (the "well-regulated" in "well-regulated militia" means well-trained and regular, not restricted by government law, the big mistake all gun control is built on). Arms are not taxed or regulated in anyway in regards to purchasing, carrying, or just possessing. It's not up to the government to decide the standard of who possesses arms because they always set the standard badly.
*Pro-Family: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Mrs-Summerdream-part-2-1270793976 this is Lyralei Summerdream the wife of Puck Summerdream with three of their daughters huddled around their mother excited about the new baby sister who's in their mother's womb. Deviant Art has lots of people who turn pregnancy into a fetish for some reason, but this is meant to be a wholesome pro-family image. Puck (this guy: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Puck-Summerdream-render-1273712402) serves on the same ship with his younger sister Titania who is the ship's doctor https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Titania-Summerdream-Vajra-CMO-1263192946. Despite her frequent distain for how brutal her brother is in combat, she still loves him and his daughters always look forward to seeing "Aunt Tia."
*Gender characteristics as a feature, not a bug: female elf doctors, such as Dr. Liara Nightshade https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Dr-Liara-Nightshade-1262677249 and the healer elf nurses of a starship sick bay https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Female-elf-nurses-refined-1270101567 are well known in the Confederation for their feminine characteristics of nurturing and compassion, as well as a maternal instinct for their patients. Frontline infantry combat is left to the biggest strongest males of the confederation https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Brawny-starship-security-1266081387 and their monstrous tenacity is treated as a feature and not a bug (i.e. no "toxic masculinity" nonsense). https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Two-faces-of-Heidi-Orlova-1264626039 Heidi Orlova is a character who has lived through a terrible tragedy where she lost her husband and only son. Her family and her dream of building a family died that day. It's the kind of circumstance that often makes people say "God, why did you let this happen to me?" Instead, she plays piano and sings "It Is Well With My Soul" by Horatio Spafford, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY5o9mP22V0 who wrote the song after he tragically lost his daughters at sea. She never let tragedy make her a monster, she is still very caring and kind and very fond of children, especially little boys who remind her of her own son.
*Modest practical clothes: https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Confed-armor-vs-g-fed-no-pants-1276277882 compare women's attire in the Confederation versus the "Galactic Federation" (a deconstruction of the Federation from Star Trek). The Federation women are wearing impractical leotards that I designed to mock the sexualized outfits that Star Trek costume design designer William Ware Theiss often created for female characters in Star Trek (including those go-go girl mini dress "uniforms" that the women were in the original series). Confederation women on the other hand, are wearing more modest and practical armored uniforms for gritty space travel and dealing with hostile space threats with peaked caps to give them a more Martial look.

=The galactic Federation, the deconstruction/parody of Star Trek's idealistic nonsense=

https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Sci-Fi-Confederation-vs-Federation-1260475038 This will tell you what you need to know about the Federation and how it contrast with my Confederation. Basically, Star Trek's creator, Gene Roddenberry was an idealistic atheist socialist who imagine a utopian pipe dream that could never possibly work in reality. https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Why-Cynthia-Dilly-Defected-1276159840 https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Captain-Al-Rashid-s-Nightmarish-Reunion-1281523521 https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/The-Phantom-Assault-on-the-Belle-1281747589 stories like this show why an idealistic utopian space Federation would collapse without a more realistic confederation to protect it. I already hinted earlier about the impracticality of the Federation's "uniforms" and in Star Trek, that was because Roddenberry insisted on Starfleet not looking "militarized" which is why they wear those impractical space pajamas, initially designed by William Ware Theiss and later refined in TNG season three by Robert Blackman. In the first season of TNG, Theiss actually had an idea of a mini dress uniform called a "skant" that was worn by men as well as women as a woke push for "gender equality" ignoring how men and women have different body mechanics and thus need clothes to be tailored differently for them https://startrekcostumeguide.com/tng-uniforms/tng-skant/costume-analysis/uniform-analysis/ . In the galactic Federation, mini dress and leotard uniforms are worn by men as well as women, but I'm sparing the deviant art audience that disgusting visual. The lack of "militarization" is also why Star Trek's Federation has those "phasers" that look like remote controls https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Type_1_phaser and dustbusters https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Type_2_phaser . My Confederation, by contrast,
Has side arms with proper grips as well as rifles with realistic tactical features that appear on what liberals always mis-label as "assault weapons" https://www.deviantart.com/therealh/art/Confederation-ladies-in-tactical-gear-1266496140.

Conservapedia is probably the only place on the internet with a zero tolerance policy for rudeness and trolling. Biden is a Junta leader.

=For Conservapedia's Critics=

# You only think someone is "biased" when their bias is different from yours
# You only think of something as "propaganda" when it promotes an ideology you don't like
# You only think people are being "indoctrinated" when people are being educated in a way that teaches them things you don't like

The reality is you have a bias, you like propaganda that supports your own ideology, and the way you teach your ideology to others is indoctrination.

Also, whoever that troll is who keeps making sock accounts boasting about being an ex-Navy SEAL, we know that's from an overused copypasta, and you don't intimidate us.

=What's great about Conservapedia=

This is a place where rules apply. Rules governing civility and decorum are strictly enforced, and those who break them are quickly blocked, making this one of the few places on the internet where socially inappropriate behavior has consequences. As a result, Conservapedia is the cleanest, most civilized, and morally upstanding place on the internet.

=I've just been granted blocking rights=

I vow to use these privileges to keep this site free from vandalism and trolling.

=Opinions=
DISCLAIMER: These are my personal opinions and do not necessarily reflect those of Conservapedia, it's Sysops (for example, [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] is Catholic), or administrators.

==Christianity==
I believe in God the Father, Maker of Heaven and Earth, in Jesus Christ, his only Son, and in the virgin birth. I believe that Jesus did all the work that was necessary for our Salvation and that nothing we do has any bearing on it (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 3 and 4 with emphasis on 3:27-28 and 4:1-5).

===Roman Catholicism===
There are many great conservative Catholics, such as Abby Johnson, Former Planned Parenthood Clinic director and Lila Rose, President and founder of Live Action. Nevertheless, I have extreme misgivings about the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church and many of the things its priesthood and Magisterium have done.
====Why I will never be Roman Catholic====
It's frightening to think that so many Catholics have trusted in the sacraments to save them rather than Christ (See "Talking with Catholic Friends and Family" by former Roman Catholic James G. McCarthy starting on page 55). Paul said in Ephesians 2:9, Romans 3:27, and Romans 4:2, no one can boast about the things that they do to merit Eternal Life. Paul teaches in Romans 4:4 that anything that is earned by works and deeds is not a gift (which Salvation is described in Ephesians 2:8) and in Romans 11:6, Paul teaches that if you add works to grace, it is by definition no longer grace. The Roman Catholic Church, on the other hand, defines "grace" something that is quantifiable and increases through works such as good deeds and the sacraments, and decreases with sin. Isaiah 64:6 reveals that God considers any works we do as useless "filthy rags" when it comes to our standing.

In Catholicism, there is no sense of becoming a wholly "new creation" as outlined in 2 Corinthians 5:17, rather, they are the same person with sins removed by a priest in a temporary state of righteousness until they sin again.

Dataclarifier posted a copied article in which a Catholic priest says "St. Paul commands all Christians to be intercessors/mediators." While I agree with the intercessory prayer part. I do not see that as commanding churches to set up the confession booths with the "forgive me father for I have sinned..." and the "pray the Rosary 5 times and do 3 Hail Marys..." Hardon also says "And remember, we are not talking about necessity here. The Church is not claiming Christ couldn’t get the job done so he needed help. Of course not! He could do it all—and all by himself—if he wanted to. He could come down here right now and write this blog post much more effectively than I ever could. But he chooses not to do everything himself, strictly speaking. He delights in using his body to communicate his life and love to the world." Exactly, but Catholics get it in their minds that they can't be forgiven without a priest to do the confession rite. Yes, Christ does use his body to communicate, there is no conflict with what Protestants believe there. "What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe--as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow." 1 Corinthians 3:5-6 A priest, however, makes himself more than a mere servant, actually having a level of supernatural control over the penitent's forgiveness and being able to declare what they must do to have their sin removed. Richard Bennett understood this when he used to take confessions and never tried get around it the way Hardon does.

We do not "misinterpret" or "misrepresent" Catholicism, we merely analyze what it's practices logically imply and are confused by the mental gymnastics done by Catholic apologists.

As [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNSLBUl-KXM& This video] says "Most, if not all, that happens to us when we receive Christ would be invalidated if salvation could be lost." Ultimately, a Catholic's salvation is dependent on continuous participation in Church rites and rituals, not on being Born Again or a new creation. I am not the best debater, there are men who are much wiser than I. I merely wish to articulate my beliefs. I have also heard many Catholics deny that the Bible was ever denied to the common people despite ‘We prohibit also that the laity should be permitted to have the books of the Old and the New Testament; unless anyone from the motives of devotion should wish to have the Psalter or the Breviary for divine offices or the hours of the blessed Virgin; but we most strictly forbid their having any translation of these books.’ From the council of Toulouse in 1229 [http://www.justforcatholics.org/a198.htm]

====Catholic Conservapedians have NOT shaken my faith====
Dataclarifier boasted that I gave a "hot" response because "the truth hurts." the only thing that bothers me about that is his own hubris. Most of the canards that Catholic Conservapedians throw around are ones that I've heard and heard debunked a thousand times before. The fact is, plenty of Protestants have read the Bible from cover-to-cover and have answers to all of the proof texts that Catholic apologists attempt to use and most of what DC has attempted to use are ones that they would have never even considered as supporting Catholic doctrine until someone like DC says it does. Most of the proof texts do not directly describe a Catholic concept, but have more general language that they have twisted to make an ad hoc argument. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvIxxyyPZsU This video] strengthened my faith even more. Even though Richard Bennett was a Catholic priest for over 20 years he can see the obvious contradictions between Catholic doctrine and scripture and doesn't dance around it, or attempt ad hoc justifications.

====The Roman Catholic Church's dark history and present evil====
I believe that the Roman Catholic Church has committed many atrocities throughout its history, and the Magisterium continues to cover up sin in the priesthood today with all of the abuse scandals. For more information, see "Catholicism: East of Eden" by former Roman Catholic priest Richard Bennett.

====For Catholics who like to use 2 Thessalonians 2:15 to attack Sola Scriptura====
From Barnes' Notes on The Bible:

{{cquote|This passage can furnish no authority for holding the "traditions" which have come down from ancient times, and which profess to have been derived from the apostles; because:

(1) there is no evidence that any of those traditions were given by the apostles;

(2) many of them are manifestly so trifling, false, and contrary to the writings of the apostles, that they could not have been delivered by them;

(3) if any of them are genuine, it is impossible to separate them from those which are false;

(4) we have all that is necessary for salvation in the written word; and,

(5) there is not the least evidence that the apostle here meant to refer to any such thing.

He speaks only of what had been delivered to them by himself, whether orally or by letter; not of what was delivered from one to another as from him. There is no intimation here that they were to hold anything as from him which they had not received directly from him, either by his own instructions personally or by letter. With what propriety, then, can this passage be adduced to prove that we are to hold the traditions which professedly come to us through a great number of intermediate persons? Where is the evidence here that the church was to hold those unwritten traditions, and transmit them to future times?

Whether by word - By preaching, when we were with you. It does not mean that he had sent any oral message to them by a third person.

Or our epistle - The former letter which he had written to them.}}

====For NishantXavier====
Hebrews 7:27 "Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself." This is in contrast to the high priests of the Old Covenant who needed to perform offerings repeatedly to cover sins, which is what the Catholic Church does. Your attempts at mental gymnastics about an "ongoing sacrifice" make no logical sense. It's flawed ad hoc reasoning designed to rescue unbiblical Catholic doctrine. Also, Galatians 1:8 says "But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God's curse!" No, do NOT just blindly obey church authority, fact check spiritual leaders like the Bereans did in Acts 17:11: "Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true."

====For LiberalTears====
Dataclarifier and other Catholics have in the past made the usual Catholic boast that they've been "practicing the same faith for 2000 years" and "what you practice has only been around for 500 years" and calling objections to their positions "the gates of Hell." Dataclarifier also called Rob "crazy" and said that his mom also thinks Rob is "crazy," so there is definitely vitriol on both sides. Understand that Rob comes from a Catholic family and he had a bad falling out when he left the Catholic Church. Regardless of what you feel, you're better off letting things go. You can't change it, and you'll only make things worse. Conservative have made it clear that they want both sides to stop the back-and-forth about this matter, and that means you too. If you won't, I WILL block you again. It's the real reason I blocked you before. Conservative have warned everybody about this (yes, RobSmith too). In fact, my recent message to Conservative was in response to '''something that Rob started, not the Catholics (yes, I do notice when Rob is in the wrong sometimes).''' The Catholics, unfortunately, took Rob's bait and started the back-and-forth again. I only wanted for Conservative to respond, but you came in and accused me of "stifling debate" and that started another back-and-forth, even though it wasn't about stifling debate, but rather moving it to the appropriate pages.

Rob has seniority over me, so I can't block him or control what he does, but the Conservative guys are intervening and trying to keep him in check. Just let it go and leave Rob alone.

====For RobSmith====
You seem to have lots of pent-up anger about Catholics because of bad experiences that you had, but I suggest you abide by Conservative's wishes and keep things off the talk pages.

==Video Games==
I am in '''strong''' disagreement with the tone of the [[video game]] article. I grew up on the NES, then to the Super Nintendo and onward. I remember the video game controversy of the 90s and how older adults who did not play and had limited knowledge of video games were complaining that they were "too violent." I later learned that the controversy resulted in Senate hearings headed by Joe Lieberman and Herb Kohl (both Democrats) who were making a strong argument for legislating video games and showed a very strong ignorance of the medium. For example, they used the game "Lethal Enforcers" by Konami as one of these "violent games." However, Lethal Enforcers is a light-gun rail shooter in which the player plays the role of a law enforcement officer shooting at armed criminals who taunt and shoot at the player. Meanwhile, innocent bystanders in fear of their lives say "don't shoot!" and "help me!" Sometimes, the criminals even take bystanders hostage. Overall, it creates a situation which real life law enforcement officers find themselves in: being caught in a shootout with criminals where innocent bystanders are around. In such a situation, police must stop the criminals while protecting the public. This kind of action is reflected in the game by its scoring system: players are rewarded for high accuracy and severely penalized for any innocent victims that are killed. A players rank is advanced at the end of each level based off of the players score, however players can be demoted for killing innocent victims. Far from promoting senseless violence, it promotes the use of control and restraint which many real life law enforcement must show in any situation in which they are required to use deadly force.

|The 2016 HBO film based on the presidency of Democrat [[Lyndon B. Johnson]] is a good example of a historical revisionist film, palatable for liberals' regressive dominion of the media. Liberals seized the opportunity with the film to distort history in order to hold Johnson in high regard and also ignored many of the President's faults, including his racism, the War on Poverty and how it created a welfare state which, by design, destroyed untold numbers of African American families.

|''Beauty and the Beast'' (2017 live-action remake)
|2017
|PG
|On the one hand, the 2017 film version of ''Beauty and the Beast'' is another victim in the film trend of needlessly and shamelessly remaking animated films or children's stories for the sake of earning easy revenue and capitalizing on current film trends in the modern, soulless Hollywood studio system. Liberals also seized the opportunity with the remake to exploit diversity and promote some liberal values within the ''Beauty and the Beast'' universe (to be noted that the story takes place in France in the 1700s, if not even before). The final result of the diversity inclusion in the cast of characters is that it feels self-congratulatory in the sense of putting it all in for the sake of having it, rather than having it be just a part of the story and the film. One notable example is the filmmakers' decision to make LeFou, Gaston's diminutive and bumbling sidekick, a homosexual who is conflicted with his feelings for Gaston (although it should be noted that in the actual script, it was never actually specified that LeFou was homosexual.<ref>https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/entertainthis/2017/03/03/josh-gad-lefou-beauty-and-the-beast/98679284/</ref>). This resulted in AFA's One Million Moms division responding to the change by calling for a boycott of the movie. At the end of the film, LeFou is shown taking a romantic interest in a musketeer who is now a transgender woman after being transformed into one during Gaston's siege of the Beast's castle.

Not only is it an atrocious and needless artistic decision of the filmmakers to needlessly incorporate diversity simply for the sake of it, but the 2017 film version of ''Beauty and the Beast'' also serves as an example that liberals can legitimately shoehorn the [[homosexual agenda]] into Disney films. Adding salt to the wound, the filmmakers also further changed history to suit their feminist agenda, similar to previous Disney films like ''Mulan'' (1998), ''Pocahontas'' (1995) and ''The Princess and the Frog'' (2009) (most infamously, the villagers are shown to be explicitly intolerant of Belle learning how to read and teaching girls to do the same, smashing her washing machine in the process, despite the fact that the namesake for the village in this film, Mdm. Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, the original author for the fairy tale, was herself a woman). The 2017 film version of ''Beauty and the Beast'' is now even more of a feminist propaganda film than the 1991 animated film version ever was. There were also hints at an anti-war message due to Gaston being turned into a war veteran.

On the other hand, there were also several surprisingly Conservative messages in the film, significantly more than in the 1991 version. Namely, Christianity is treated in a far more positive light in this film than in the 1991 version as one of the few friends Belle has in this version is the village Chaplain named Pere Robert who is shown to be sympathetic to her bibliophilic nature and also attempts to prevent Maurice from being sent to the Asylum, and later is shown to be horrified at the formation of the mob against the Beast (it is to be noted that in the original 1991 film, the character in question was merely a bookseller, not a priest, and most of the villagers, implied to be devout Christians, were demonized in the film), which was also surprisingly accurate to history despite the aforementioned changing of history in the film (in real history, Christianity, especially the Catholic Church, actively encouraged literacy, writing, and arithmetic among both genders, with girls being taught in convents or at the home). In addition, Maurice actually is shown to be more proactive in this film, such as directly refusing Gaston's attempt at marrying Belle and even attempting to expose Gaston as an attempted murderer and psychopath, and also plays a direct role in saving Belle and himself from the paddywagon after she exposes Beast to the villagers (in the original film, although he does set out to try and find Belle and save her after trying to get the villagers to help failed, he ultimately required saving by her due to catching an illness during his trek, and ultimately needed saving alongside Belle via Chip).

In addition, Lumière as well as the featherduster (named Plumette in this version) are shown to be an actual loving couple (in the original film, this was just hinted, although Lumière seemed more of a womanizer and the featherduster sexually loose), and the remake also doesn't demonize traditional marriage (notably, the remake cut out Gaston's inappropriate wedding proposal as well as Belle shoving Gaston into mud in front of attendees). The forgiveness and redemption theme was also significantly more emphasized in the remake, due to Beast ultimately forgiving Maurice after learning why he had tried to steal the rose and even allowing Belle to save Maurice specifically to make up for his past behavior, with Maurice also forgiving Beast upon Belle showing him the baby rattle. It is also shown to be significantly more pro-family as well, as not only is Belle shown to be loyal to her father like in the 1991 original, but as noted above, Maurice himself took measures to protect Belle and notably agreed with Belle that Gaston would not have worked out for her (originally, Maurice also thought Gaston was alright for her), and he also was shown to be very protective of Belle after his wife had died from the plague, with Belle's mom specifically sacrificing herself by telling them to leave her behind to allow Belle a healthy life.

In addition, the triplets (renamed to "Village Lasses") in the remake were depicted as having haughtiness, arrogance, being jealous of Belle, as well as overall being nasty people, including briefly smirking at Belle when she was locked up in the paddy wagon as well as being actively involved in the arrest of Maurice as well as the later attack on Beast's castle (in the original film, the triplets were not shown to have any negative behavior to them besides their crushing on Gaston [not participating in the later arrest of Maurice, let alone the attack on Beast's castle shortly afterward during the climax, and also implying at one point that they were willing to give their blessing to Gaston marrying Belle when Belle refused him in the beginning of the film, and while they were present during the final lyrics for the Gaston reprise where Gaston explicitly divulged key details for his blackmail plan, the way it was framed could easily be interpreted as the triplets genuinely not knowing about the plan due to their absence from Maurice's arrival up to the scene where Gaston whispers the plan to LeFou.], and it is also heavily implied that they supported traditional marriage and were demeaned in the film by being referred to in the script as The Bimbettes and treated as dumb blondes for this reason). In addition, according to the film's director Bill Condon as well as one of the triplets' actresses, Rafaelle Cohen, the reason the triplets were intensely jealous and spiteful of Belle was because their mother neglected them while doting on Belle, showcasing the dangers of parental neglect.

|A hacker discovers his world is a replica of the world as it was before a cataclysmic future event in which intelligent machines took over humanity, so he joins a resistance to end the machines' reign. Despite this salvation narrative, the whole trilogy glorifies anarchism and [[nihilism]] (even including a brief nod to [[Jean Baudrillard]]'s "On Nihilism" chapter from Simulacra and Simulation), hinting several times towards a pro-Communist, anti-American (with one scene in the first film, when Thomas Anderson meets Agent Smith, having Anderson's dossier listing Anderson as hailing from "FU, USA" which not-so-subtly is meant to say "[Censored] You, USA"), [[anti-Christian]] view. The second film's Architect scene tries to give a "devastating critique/twist" to salvation myths, with the Architect as a malevolent allegorical substitute for the Christian [[God]]. In this same scene, a panel of screens implicitly compares [[George W. Bush]] to Hitler during a discussion of evil in the world, and it features wars and conflicts specifically involving America. In fact, far-[[leftist|Left]] [[race-baiting]] scholar Cornel West was hired to play a role in the film specifically because the [[The Wachowskis|Wachowski Brothers]] (as they were known at the time) were influenced by his pro-socialist/Communist and anti-American rhetoric. The first film's throwaway dialogue between the main villain Agent Smith and the treasonous freedom fighter Cipher is a shallow attempt at insulting [[Ronald Reagan]] because Smith implies that Cipher will become the next Ronald Reagan should he succeed in betraying his allies to the agents. The trilogy's overall depiction of religion is closer to Gnosticism, even with Neo, the main protagonist, presented as a savior-figure.

|''Red Joan''
|2019
|PG-13
|Based on the life of Communist traitor Melita Norwood, who gave up schematics on the British nuclear weapons program to the KGB. The film may be vaguely anti-Stalinist, but is pro-Communist, anti-Cold War, and anti-Western. Near the end of the movie, when the woman's son accuses her of betraying her country, she insists that somehow, she is the real patriot. It's also pro-feminist, as male characters are portrayed as supposedly belittling her, encouraging her to serve tea and do laundry, and rather than leaving these insignificances out of the story, the movie portrays it as integral to the plot when she supposedly tricked the British police into thinking she was stupid and asking them if they wanted tea, though that part of the story is in all likelihood inaccurate and never even happened. Also, the decision by United States President Harry Truman to drop two atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in order to end the Second World War is strongly condemned, and to an extent, is demonized. At the end of the movie, she arrogantly says ''twice'', "I was right." "Right" to give Joseph Stalin, the evilest man in history, instructions to build nuclear weapons? She refers to the fact that sharing the nuclear weapons secrets prevented the Cold War from turning hot, and while the situation of M.A.D. (Mutually Assured Destruction) prevented such an occurrence, there never even would have been a Cold War if Stalin had never acquired nuclear weapons, or otherwise the U.S. would have won a lot sooner. The movie also implied that the tactics of the British police and MI5 were similar to the KGB. Imagine a film had been released portraying Jakiw Palij, the last ex-Nazi in the United States, who was deported by President Donald Trump to Germany, in such a sympathetic fashion. Just more communist propaganda from Hollywood.

John Goodman of the [[ATF]] leads the federal government cavalry to the rescue evoking the glorious image of the Clinton era [[Waco massacre]]. Critics called it one of the director's "Twitter rants fleshed out into film with equal portions of bile sprayed at both church and state"; "Messy, overwritten, ...kind of a bore....it's not a horror movie by any usual definition. More like teen horror movie morphs into Waco disaster"; "fails onscreen and off at its world premiere ... A shoddy film and a bait-and-switch event fail to satisfy on any level"; "it's clear that the smart alec writer still has some things to learn about making a great film."

The marketing, knowing perfectly people would not come to see the movie, released every trailer showing just few vague and neutral seconds of the film to trick the public into believing it was just a genuine, apolitical and neutral Barbie-style comedy movie, with Mattel executives panicking to the point of stating via interview that the ''Barbie'' is absolutely not a feminist agenda-driven movie in an attempt to avoid another potential boycott, despite the words of the cast and Greta Gerwig stating the contrary (with also creepy and disturbing statements about "educating the public" on "problematic gender roles/norms" as a "social construct") and other red flags months before the release in the theaters. One obvious message is that the matriarchal Barbieland, where the Kens are treated as insignificant, weak, superfluous and unimportant "accessories", is the perfect and ideal world compared to the "patriarchal society" in the "real world", despite the fact that the modern Western world described by the film and Greta Gerwig is far from being such a patriarchal and dystopian society. Gerwig self-inserts herself briefly like liberal, feminist and leftist directors typically do as further proof of their disturbing and creepy narcissism, egocentrism and self-absorption.

In contrast to the rest of the film series up to this point, ''Captain Marvel'' is explicitly feministic, one example showing a deleted scene with Captain Marvel threatening a man for mild flirts including "Smile for me" and stealing his belongings. During an interview, Captain Marvel's actress Brie Larson shows some sexism, [[ageism]] and self-loathing [[racism]] by saying that she "won't accept reviews about the movie from 40 y.o. white men" (even though she is herself white). The film was also notorious for Disney and Marvel going to extremes to ensure it had any chance at a box office success, including forcing theaters to make it the single showing for a week, buying tickets and lying on the importance of the film to understand ''[[Avengers: Endgame]]'' released the same year.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2019/03/some-reports-indicate-captain-marvel-is-the-only-movie-playing-at-some-theaters-during-premiere-week/78446/</ref><ref>https://youtu.be/KBeUffaNxkY</ref><ref>https://cosmicbook.news/disney-manipulated-captain-marvel-perception</ref><ref>https://boundingintocomics.com/2019/03/13/new-reports-of-empty-theaters-at-captain-marvel-add-to-movies-controversy/</ref> as well as having Rotten Tomatoes remove its negative reviews of the film.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2019/03/rotten-tomatoes-removes-thousands-of-negative-captain-marvel-user-ratings/79348/</ref><ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2019/02/captain-marvel-rotten-tomatoes-censorship-circumvented-thanks-to-dissenter-extension/78084/</ref>

|2000

|Debauched independent film about a man who revisits another man he traumatized through sexual grooming as a child. The message is that in some instances, groomers are the real victims and greatly misunderstood because of their need for casual sex. Also, if their victims weren't "brainwashed" by moralistic views about sex, most of them would consent to it and see it as a good thing, and no trauma would ever happen. In the film, when he meets the man he seduced in their youth, he encourages him to cheat on his wife, who is "holding him back", and have sex with him in order to desensitize him to hedonism and see monogamy as a perversion. The director and writer of the film is openly bisexual, and plays the role of the groomer who initiates the encounter. He admits it is based on his experiences and fantasies.

|At first your typical buddy cop movie with lots of explosions, shootings and hand-to-hand combats with a global threat and conspiracy and the kidnapping of the child of one of the protagonists as central parts to the plot. However, there's a creepy and disturbing particular element that saying it is "aged badly" since its very release would be a gigantic euphemism. To start a conversation, Agent Su asks Anthony if his 8, almost 9 y.o. daughter already has a "little boyfriend", and Anthony replies with a straight "never" and that he would "kill them", therefore admitting with creepy and disturbing nonchalance in the presence of a cop that he would commit literal child murder. This is also a creepy potential sign of a future abusive father, and it's quite likely how liberals viewed and view conservative or traditional fathers.

Crime is glorified and embraced, for Dawn decides to start causing crime as a way to get famous, and she even shows no remorse for her actions while she is electrocuted at the end of the movie, thanking her fans for helping her gain infamy. Abuse is also glorified, from Dawn's contempt for her parents to refusing to let her daughter Taffy be a normal girl, beating her harshly and even threatening to kill her for joining Hare Krishna (and eventually does). When Taffy later meets her father who abandoned the family, he sexually harasses her, pushing an incest vibe as well. The movie also pushes the homosexual agenda, where one woman urges a man to become gay because she thinks of heterosexuality as boring, and it shows two close-up shots of male genitalia as well. Like with ''Pink Flamingos'', this movie got a positive reception from a rather morality-deprived audience.

|''Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom''
|2018
|PG-13
|Unfortunately, Christian movie star, Chris Pratt, cannot save this film from being a liberal disaster. This film, like its predecessor, "Jurassic World," is also very supportive of feminism. In fact, that is even more apparent, as Chris Pratt's character - Owen Grady - is depicted as heartless for not wanting to save the dinosaurs and preferring to be left alone; on the flip side, the more feminist Claire Dearing is now a dinosaur rights activist, using Owen's ''Velociraptor'' Blue to get Owen to save the dinosaurs with her. At the end of the film, the dinosaurs are released into the wild, putting billions of human lives in danger, clearly giving an environmental message. Also, one of the younger characters clearly looks like an SJW, with her character acting as such. Not only that, but one of the main antagonists calls her a "nasty woman" which is clearly a jab at Donald Trump. According to one of the actresses, Daniella Pineda, there was intended to be a scene (that was fortunately cut) that revealed that her character, Zia Rodriguez, was a lesbian when admitting she was fond of Chris Pratt's character.<ref>https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/jurassic-world-fallen-kingdom-star-daniella-pinedas-lesbian-reveal-cut-film-183618705.html</ref>

Also, it was originally going to be an R-rated mob comedy called Down and Under but was retooled because the test audiences liked the kangaroo.

It also has a significant anti-religious bent in it, where two of the documentarists (implied to be homosexual) tried to talk to a priest specifically to "piss him off," and also had one of the members breaking down from a priest being "hateful" simply because he implied the possibility that Matthew Shepherd will go to hell if he didn't repent for his homosexual activities.

|''The Little Mermaid'' (live-action remake)
|2023
|PG
|Race-swapped live-action version of the 1989 animated counterpart and classic of the same name. Case and point, with Disney changing Howard Ashman's original lyrics to suit more "modern times" as described as the "woke" social media minority in the English-speaking West, as well as many of the accomplishments done by the side characters given to Ariel for female empowerment. Many of the men were portrayed as either useless idiots, or evil with Prince Eric (who is now adopted) not being the one who killed Ursula, and that King Triton probably had multiple wives or lovers judging all of his daughters are of different races, at least this would be a rational explanation because it would be absurd even for a Disney movie to imagine having multiple daughters of different races with only a wife or lover. One of the background mermen is even cast by a pornstar, further questioning Disney's already-questionable casting choices. Also, Grimsby attitude towards Eric being with Ariel is more [[Pragmatism|pragmatic]] rather than [[Idealism|idealistic]].

It was a major flop at the box office that failed even to break even, and liberals blamed racism due to Ariel now being black despite the original story being Danish, another evidence of liberal and woke hypocrisy and anti-European and anti-redhead racism and bigotry. Cinema workers and [[YouTube]]/[[Tik Tok]] creators denounced a lack of spectators in the theaters for the film, with also videos showing the evidence of that, leading to assume that Disney or corporate bots on social media tried to illegally inflate the box office in order to promote the film and misleading the public, like it happened with the ''Captain Marvel'' movie.

|''The Lost World: Jurassic Park''
|1997
|PG-13
|The film is pro-environmentalist, and features John Hammond, the original head of Jurassic Park, hiring environmentalist hippies to sabotage his own company in the name of releasing the dinosaurs back into the wild, with the protagonists being depicted as being in the right despite causing explicit destruction and death via their actions, as well as demonizing the corporation for trying to stop them. Also has an anti-hunting message due to one of the main antagonists explicitly being a hunter; adding to that is one of the "heroes" removing bullets from the hunter's gun, putting everyone in even more danger from the dinosaurs, though no one calls him out for it. It is to be noted that such a message not only was not present in the book it was adapted from, but it if anything was the complete antithesis to the anti-cloning message from both the original book by Michael Crichton and the 1993 film that adapted it and that ''Lost World'' acted as a sequel to.

Revisionist piece which unabashedly promotes the feminist agenda to the extent that most of the males are either villains or useless, even going so far as to heavily hint at a transgender philosophy; promotes hard-core environmentalism, [[moral relativism]] and even Marxism; pretty much ruins the morality tale for ''Sleeping Beauty''. ''The Federalist'' also had a field day with the film stating how it promoted the leftist agenda and citing point by point its agenda.<ref>https://thefederalist.com/2014/06/06/maleficent-once-upon-a-screed/</ref> In particular, King Stefan, far from being depicted as a good father who gave up Aurora to the three fairies to protect her from the curse, was shown to not care for Aurora at all and was willing to let her die from the curse.

Although it won the Academy Award for Best Picture of 1998 (thanks to the aggressive campaign tactics of the egotistical producer Harvey Weinstein), the film has aged poorly and, to this day, the overwhelming majority of critics and film viewers believe that the conservative film and Steven Spielberg's masterpiece ''Saving Private Ryan'' should have won instead.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SrNphaLsDs</ref>

Portrays capitalists on [[Wall Street]] as greedy self-absorbed criminals obsessed with sex, drugs and violence in the form of the protagonist Jordan Belfort. Many audiences were shocked that this did not receive an NC-17 rating upon its release, especially since morality-deprived director [[Martin Scorsese]] broke the ''[[South Park]]'' movie's record for most uses of the F-word with his film. Christina McDowell, the daughter of Tom Prousalis, one of the people involved in Belfort's crimes, wrote a memoir on the subject specifically to call out Scorsese and DiCaprio for failing to recognize the victims of Belfort in the film, something even the most praiseworthy critics of the film admitted was a flaw.

|''Alita: Battle Angel''
|2019
|PG-13
|From producer [[James Cameron]] and director [[Robert Rodriguez]], this American film loosely based on the Japanese manga with the same name supports [[feminism]], [[environmentalism]], [[illegal immigration]] and [[anti-capitalism]], as the villains of the film are depicted as wealthy slavers who live above the poor ghettos. In contrast, the heroes are violent street thugs who hate money.

|''Alpha and Omega''
|2010
|PG
|This animated film about wolves promotes disorderly conduct based on the zany antics of an omega wolf named Humphrey. It can also be seen as pro-environmentalist because some members of the wolf pack try to start eating berries instead of caribou, despite wolves being natural carnivores. Alpha wolves are painted in an elitist light for being determined and hardworking. One female wolf named Kate can be described as a modern feminist. Similar to the other liberal film, ''Open Season,'' it spawned multiple unneeded direct-to-video sequels. It is also somewhat comparable to the other liberal film called ''Barnyard: The Original Party Animals'', but in that movie's case, it had a subsequent television series called ''Back at the Barnyard'' instead of film sequels.

|''Alpha and Omega'' sequels
|2013-2017
|PG
|These direct-to-video sequels follow the characters from the first ''Alpha and Omega'' movie and show the same themes from that film. The sequels encourage disobedient behavior, for the pups of Kate and Humphrey often ignore their parents telling them to stay at home; they even try justifying this by telling their parents in the sixth movie that they get into "situations" by being told to be kind and caring. An instance of racism is shown in the fifth film by three porcupines being told to be friends because they look alike.

|''Animals United'' (Konferenz der Tiere in German)
|2010
|PG
|A goofy meerkat and a pacifistic lion journey with other animals from around the world (a polar bear, two tortoises, a kangaroo, a Tasmanian devil, and a rooster) to take down a dam built by humans, which had caused the Okavango Delta to dry up. This movie, based on a children's book, promotes a heavy environmentalist message, with the animals saying that all humans are causing bad things to happen worldwide (like causing a polar bear's snowy home to melt and letting the Outback catch on fire). The movie's ending amps the environmental message up to eleven, with many animals storming the cities and news reporters saying that the animals will make humans pay for ruining the world.

|''An American Tail 3: The Treasure of Manhattan Island''
|1998
|G
|This film, unlike the other three ''American Tail'' films, definitely has a liberal bent. Not only does it vilify businessmen (though it, I suppose, was mocking the Robber Barons and might have had some merit in that regard.) What is harder to excuse is pushing the point of white/European guilt of what happened to the Native Americans, even making Fievel, who himself fled from a bad situation in Russia, somehow feel responsible for the plight of the Native American mice. This film and the negative reception were ultimately responsible for the death of the ''American Tail'' franchise.

|Set in a barnyard where animals speak and behave like humans in the absence of actual humans, this ''Lion King'' clone stars a bull who witnesses his father die after being wounded by coyotes, then he gradually accepts the responsibilities that come with being the leader of his animal community. Nevertheless, ''Barnyard'' accepts disorderly conduct because the animals still party recklessly, even with a serious and dedicated bull in charge. Plus, it portrays humans as either ignorant or stupid and persecutes coyotes for being carnivores. The neurotic ferret Freddy goes to liberal lengths to avoid the temptation to eat his rooster friend by becoming a [[vegetarianism|vegetarian]].

|''Brave''
|2012
|PG
|One of Pixar's less memorable animations stars Merida, a feminist Medieval Scottish princess who refuses to marry, believing it will cause her to lose her life of archery and adventure, thus demonstrating poor family values throughout. Of course, because this is a feminist propaganda piece, the men in the film are oafish compared to the women, too. Egregiously, Merida was added to the Disney Princess lineup regardless of the poor morals she demonstrates throughout the film and being created by Pixar, not by Disney directly. It also has a setting similar to the Great Conservative Film ''How to Train Your Dragon'', released two years before.

|''Cars 2''
|2011
|G
|This Pixar sequel demonizes oil companies while aggrandizing ethanol (mentioned as Allinall). On the film's political agenda, director John Lasseter commented: "Why isn't alternative fuel more... Why isn't everybody jumping on that bandwagon? It makes so much sense: Electricity, solar, whatever. There's ethanol. There's all this stuff you could be doing. And so I thought, well, that could be really cool in that you could have big oil versus alternative fuel. That's when we kind of crafted the bad guy's story."

|-
|''Chicken Little''
|2005
|G
|This painfully unoriginal animation, which was adapted from a 1943 World War II propaganda short by conservative filmmaker Walt Disney (which was itself adapted from one of Aesop's fables), ridicules family values, especially when the title chicken's widower father, Buck "Ace" Cluck, is shown to be willing to disown his son. Later on, when the aliens proceed to attempt to invade and detonate Earth, it is simply because they thought it was a living organism that kidnapped one of their children. The film is borderline nihilistic because the townspeople are mean-spirited and frequently bully Chicken Little, and a brief gag implies that warping someone's mind against their will is acceptable. As one of the worst theatrical productions ever made by the Walt Disney Company under [[Michael Eisner]] (both critics and audiences agree on this), and even the very first Walt Disney Animation Studios' full-length feature completely animated in 3D (so not exactly a good start), the film's mean-spirited and deeply cynical plot line is suspected to have been done to compete with [[DreamWorks]] animated films helmed by [[Jeffrey Katzenberg]].

|''The Emoji Movie''
|2017
|PG (Should be PG-13 for multiple references to the dreaded S-word in profanity)
|Not only is this film clearly an infomercial for various smartphone applications and features thinly disguised as an unoriginal take on the "hero's journey" story archetype, but it appears to devalue human language: the main teenager Alex can only win over his crush by communicating via text messages comprised exclusively of emojis, and a background teenager even says, "Words aren't cool." Openly homosexual writer and director Anthony "Tony" Leondis considers the movie a deeply personal project for him: the main character is a sentient emoji who is different from his friends with his ability to show multiple expressions, which reflects Leondis' laughable belief that he is an outcast when, in reality, Hollywood praises that sort of sinful sexuality. The film briefly glorifies [[Facebook]], the world's largest social network and a hotbed for narcissism and relationship destruction; it gives minor lip service to feminism in the form of Jailbreak, a computer hacker girl emoji who refuses to be the princess emoji she was created to be; and has been unfavorably compared to ''Wreck-It Ralph'' and ''Inside Out'', two great conservative animations, plus the ambiguously conservative ''LEGO Movie''.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydvQB-4bBfQ</ref> Worst of all, TJ Miller, who voices the lead emoji, once said the film is a subtle protest against [[Donald Trump]] based on allegations that Trump wants to censor Hollywood and other liberally biased media.

|Based upon the comic strip of the same name, animals struggling to steal food from trash for the winter are the heroes. At the same time, humans are painted as ignorant, uncaring towards animals (clearly an environmentalist message), and obsessed with food. Plus, a businesswoman is the main antagonist, and an exterminator is scorned for simply doing his job. In addition, one of the other main antagonists of the film (and the only animal main antagonist), Vincent the Bear, is villainized for forcing RJ the Raccoon to replace the food he had after the latter in a botched attempt to steal food that Vincent had hoarded for the winter ended up accidentally destroying the food stash, with an ad-libbed scene in the climax having Vincent admit that he got where he was by "backstabbing, betraying, and murdering" those that placed trust in him, which can be interpreted as a dig against Capitalism and the concept of private property.

|''Peter Rabbit''
|2018
|G
|The movie was a complete trashing of the popular British children's book series of the same name, promoting environmentalism by having the rightful owner of the farm, Thomas MacGregor, be vilified simply for trying to farm the vegetable garden that legally belonged to him. At the same time, the various wild animals are portrayed positively in interfering with his business. One of their plans against MacGregor even goes so far as to have Peter Rabbit murder him by exploiting a food allergy that he had, and it is treated positively. It was such that even the liberal website [[TV Tropes]] grudgingly acknowledged under the articles "Unintentionally Sympathetic" and "Unintentionally Unsympathetic" that Thomas was closer to being in the right than Peter and his friends were. A sequel - ''Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway'' - was released in 2021.

|''[[Pocahontas (1995 film)|Pocahontas]]''
|1995
|G
|This feminist story follows a highly fictionalized account of the life of [[Native American]] [[Pocahontas]] with an environmental message; and the Native American’s view against English settlers is similar to Howard Zinn's revisionist history textbook ''A People's History of the United States'', which would enter public knowledge and provided to universities, colleges, and high schools across America two years later (see ''Good Will Hunting''). The titular character enters what is implied to be an unfaithful relationship with John Smith over fellow Native American Kokoum, and her decision is treated in a comparatively positive light; while the English settlers are vilified simply for establishing the early American colonies to find Jamestown, and John Ratcliffe in particular was demonized as having the motive of trying to establish a gold mine and being greedy, despite gold never being the motive for Ratcliffe, which could be interpreted as a dig against capitalism. Also, unlike the film character, who was the victim of a mutiny, the real one was killed in an ambush by Powhatan Indians in 1609, along with 14 other men.

Following the Best Picture nomination of ''Beauty and the Beast'' at the 64th Academy Awards and its subsequent loss in March 1992, then-studio chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg opted to produce another animated sweeping romantic epic in hopes of achieving a cinematic masterpiece status and replicating another Best Picture nomination, even if he intended to distort history and add both a love story and environmental themes. In fact, many people at Disney had high hopes for ''Pocahontas'', while deeming the concept of another film in production, ''The Lion King'' as experimental. To their surprise, ''The Lion King'' became one of the greatest animated motion pictures of all time, while ''Pocahontas'' received mixed critical reviews and below-than-expected box office receipts.

|''Sausage Party''
|2016
|R
|As the first R-rated American animated film to be released by a major film studio in the United States following 1999's ''South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut'', ''Sausage Party'' blatantly criticizes religion and deceives audiences into thinking that, without religion and the existence of God, everyone can enjoy the most selfish, crude, and debauched activities (e.g. humanism, homosexuality, obscenity, and non-stop sexual intercourse) without guilt or a sense of a "religious obligation". Made by Nitrogen Studios. A typical offensive and raunchy comedy film by modern Hollywood standards, directors Conrad Vernon and Greg Tiernan, producer Megan Ellison, producer/writer Evan Goldberg, and producer/writer/actor Seth Rogen (all of them fiercely liberal and some, ironically, of Jewish origin) made this film to bastardize the animation genre, as well as to push the liberal Hollywood agenda on politics and religion. For the past century, animated feature films have enthralled and enhanced audiences worldwide, as the best ones tell timely stories that children, teenagers, and adults alike can relate to and enjoy. The makers of ''Sausage Party'' seemed to not care about any of this, as they made this untimely film strictly for adults and believed that there aren't and should be any animated films for adults only to enjoy. Their warped belief is made very clear by the film's criticism and parody of many other animated films (namely Disney animations) and the presence of regular Disney collaborator Alan Menken as the film's songwriter. Altogether, ''Sausage Party'' is painfully unfunny and has virtually no plot or philosophical merit. Only liberally biased film critics praised the film upon release, while general audiences were repulsed by it.

On a side note, ''Sausage Party'' has attracted much criticism on two additional issues. First, the animators worked under poor, cruel conditions and were forced by the directors to work overtime without pay. Thirty-six of the 83 animators were blacklisted and went uncredited in the film, believed to be due to their complaints; comments made in anonymous interviews of some of the animators involved in the project by ''Variety'', ''The Washington Post'', and ''The Hollywood Reporter'' alleged that the comments were accurate. All the animators in the film were told outright that they would be blacklisted if they did not work overtime without pay. Second, a red-band trailer for the film was accidentally played before a showing of the Walt Disney Pictures/Pixar Animation Studios' PG-rated and family-oriented ''Finding Dory'', at a Concord, California multiplex in mid-June 2016.<ref>http://ew.com/article/2016/06/29/theater-plays-sausage-party-trailer-before-finding-dory-apologizes/</ref> The theater staff had forgotten to switch out an adult-audience trailer roll for one meant for G and PG-rated films, when adding additional screens to carry ''Finding Dory'' to meet audience demand. The incident occurred only once, and the theater apologized, while Rogen [[Twitter|tweeted]] that the story "made his day".

|''Tax the Rich: An Animated Fairytale''
|2012
|N/A
|An animated film written by [[Fred Glass]], narrated by [[Ed Asner]], and made for the California Federation of Teachers. It repeated rhetoric made by the [[Occupy Wall Street]] group about taxing the rich to have "their fair share" and demonized Capitalism in various ways, including blaming it on Asian sweatshops as well as the housing bubble bursting in 2008. [[Kirsten Powers]], a member of [[The Daily Beast]], and herself no stranger to liberal politics, acknowledged alongside conservative economist for ''The Daily Caller'' Tucker Carson on the Sean Hannity show that the cartoon was simply inexcusable and disgusting, with Sean Hannity also explicitly referring to it as a "disgusting hit piece".<ref>https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/sean-hannity-slams-ed-asner-398102</ref><ref>http://reagancoalition.com/articles/2012/20121206006-ca-union-class.html</ref> The film was particularly infamous for a scene where, in a segment covering the trickle-down effect, a corpulent rich man representing the 1% of wealthy Americans, after having the scales literally stacked up in his favor regarding money, upon being asked why the 1% needed so much money, he responded "Don't worry, this is good for you too, it will trickle down from us to you", with the latter statement being accompanied with a graphic of the rich man proceeding to urinate on the other ordinary people as they yell in protest. Although later versions freeze the footage just before the man pees on the crowd in response to the complaints about the scene, it was still implied by residual audio of the urine stream. Sean Hannety and Michelle Malkin of the Sean Hannety Show both expressed disgust with the video when covering it, and when one of the producers confronted Ed Asner as the latter was about to attend one of his roles at a play, the latter falsely claimed he didn't remember what he said on it, and also claimed that the bit about rich people peeing on poor people was disgusting only because it should have been in reverse, and then asked the producer if he had any money, and if so, if he should "p*** on [the producer]."<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr1ZzsAzq_M</ref>

This North Korean film paints being held prisoner positively, for the king of Atlantis forces the main characters to stay in Atlantis forever. Don Juan willingly submits to being taken prisoner and coerces his companions to do the same. It also shows disrespect towards the tragedy of the Titanic and those who died on that night by referring to the Titanic as "mythical." Family values are even tossed aside when the main characters are more concerned about seeing Atlantis again than their families back home. A sequel TV series was released in 2011 with the same bad values and strange nature.

|''Hearts and Minds''

|Not Rated
|A documentary about the Vietnam War that was inherently anti-American in its nature. Also, depicts [[Catholic]]s as bigots.

It also has several moments of graphic sex between soldiers and Vietnamese prostitutes. It also implies throughout the film that several atrocities conducted by the North Vietnamese communists were done by Americans, including the footage where a girl ends up burned by [[napalm]] and running out naked. Noteworthy for being almost single-handedly responsible for forcing America out of Vietnam (even having the NVA mailing the producers thanking them for "ensuring peace" in Vietnam) as well as it being an influence for far-left schlockumentarist/propagandist Michael Moore, with some of its filming techniques even being reused for ''Farenheit 9/11''.

|One of the most disgusting displays of blasphemy ever.

It also insults God by portraying Jesus engaging in graphic sexual acts during a dream sequence and suggests that all Church leaders rape and have sex with women of lesser stature. Not even the Virgin Mary is safe from ridicule in this awful monstrosity, as a statue of her is carved into a sex toy and used during some of the most graphic lesbian sex scenes. It is also somewhat of a celebration of BDSM, as many of the torture scenes in the film are depicted as sexual. A horrendous film that was protested throughout the world.

|Written by atheists Trey Parker and Matt Stone as what they sarcastically call "an atheist's love letter to religion", this musical insults every aspect of the Mormon religion as two of the church's elders embark on a mission to Africa. There are several Biblical inaccuracies, which reflects the writers' insane, misguided belief that Christians will believe anything word-for-word if it's written in the Bible. In one song, a group of tribal Ugandans swears against God in the Ugandan language.

In real history, John Proctor, one of the accused, was reported as living a “Christian life in his family and was ever ready to help such as they stood in need”, but in the film, he confesses to being a witch and publicly denounces God.

|''[[The Last Temptation of Christ]]''
|1988
|R
|The film's eponymous final sequence depicts the crucified Jesus—tempted by what turns out to be Satan in the form of a beautiful, androgynous child—experiencing a dream or alternative reality where he comes down from the cross, marries Mary Magdalene (and later Mary and Martha), and lives out his life as a full mortal man. He learns on his deathbed that he was deceived by [[Satan]] and begs God to let him "be [God's] son," at which point he finds himself once again on the cross. At other points in the film, Jesus is depicted as building crosses for the Romans, being tormented by the voice of God, and lamenting the many sins he believes he has committed.
Because of these departures from the gospel narratives—and especially a brief scene wherein Jesus and Mary Magdalene consummate their marriage—several Christian groups organized vocal protests and boycotts of the film prior to and upon its release. One protest, organized by a religious Californian radio station, gathered 600 protesters to picket the headquarters of Universal Studios' then-parent company MCA. One of the protestors dressed up as MCA's Chairman Lew Wasserman and pretended to drive nails through Jesus' hands into a wooden cross. Evangelist Bill Bright offered to buy the film's negative from Universal in order to destroy it. The protests were effective in convincing several theater chains not to screen the film. One of those chains, General Cinemas, later apologized to Scorsese for doing so.
Mother Angelica, a Catholic nun and foundress of Eternal Word Television Network, described ''Last Temptation'' as "the most blasphemous ridicule of the Eucharist that's ever been perpetrated in this world" and "a holocaust movie that has the power to destroy souls eternally."
In some countries, including Greece, Turkey, Mexico, Chile, and Argentina, the film was banned or censored for several years. As of July 2010, the film continues to be banned in the Philippines and Singapore.

Strangely, the same unspeakable acts have been happening legally in Islamic nations but they are conveniently ignored by the liberal media (if the journalists uncovered that, then that would be an example of bravery).

(Notice "Christ" in his name.) Truman must escape from the false world of the show (Christianity) and triumph over Christof.

|''[[Aladdin (1992 film)|Aladdin]]''
|1992
|G
|Based on the classic Arabian folk tale ''Aladdin and the Magic Lamp'', a poor but charitable thief is sent by Jafar, a sinister vizier to a sultan, to search for a mysterious oil lamp rumored to contain unbelievably powerful magic. Upon finding this, he accidentally releases the comical genie inside, who grants his wish to become a prince so he can legally court Jasmine, the sultan's daughter. On the one hand, the film is set within what is implied to be a Muslim state, and Aladdin does resort to lie to try and marry Jasmine. A slight feminist bent is present because Jasmine refuses to marry, ignoring the law requiring it (although, in her defense, it's implied to be a recent law made by her father to be sure she is married with someone to rule the city and "taken care of" because he's "not gonna be around forever"). In addition, some lyrics to the opening song were notably cut due to fears of offending the Arab populace, implying the film is politically correct in nature. The Sultan is shown to be a massive bumbler and overgrown child, which may hint at an anti-parenthood agenda but also showing character and authority in a few circumstances. But on the other hand, the film does ultimately push character integrity because Aladdin ultimately decides against lying and tells Jasmine the truth about himself. Disregarding the film's slight politically correct treatment of Arabia, it ultimately showcases some more negative elements of Islamic culture via a vendor nearly chopping Jasmine's hand off when she "steals" some food to feed a starving child, as well as depicting Prince Achmed in a very negative light via his cruelty to Aladdin and children attempting to stop him. The prince is implied to be a poor example of a husband, so it is subtly implied that Jasmine refused to marry because all the princes she encountered had in fact been as bad as Achmed. She then falls for Aladdin because he saves her life and shows kindness to her. In addition, it is made clear that while Aladdin does steal and initially had an infamous reputation for his thefts, it's solely in order to survive on the streets, with it being heavily implied that he was an orphan, and he also selflessly gives his stolen food to starving children after initially planning to eat it. There is a lesser condemnation against the occult as the only explicit magic-user besides Aladdin's Genie is Jafar, the main villain who dreams of becoming the world's most powerful dark sorcerer.

|''Aliens''
|1986

|The second film, ''Aliens'', is an anti-Vietnam statement<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T543J2L-gXU</ref> and, just like its predecessor, copies another previous feature (in this case, the 1954 film ''Them!''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVoX-C9J4Zk</ref>). However, liberal pundits currently denounce it as a pro-war film, and it is to be noted that despite technically pushing anti-Vietnam messaging, it unintentionally ends up being a pro-Vietnam statement at the same time, as the Vietcong stand-in for the film was the titular antagonists, the Xenomorphs, hinting at the Vietcong being depicted negatively. Motherhood is also given a neutral depiction. Although the Xenomorph Queen, who is depicted as embracing her maternal instincts, is depicted in a negative light, the film's protagonist Ellen Ripley was also shown to embrace motherly instincts as well and treated positively for it, acting as a surrogate mother to the orphan Newt and going out of her way to protect and rescue her in the film (most feminists even back then, much less today, tend to demonize the concept of motherhood).

The theft of the crystal to become rich could be seen as a condemnation of capitalism. That being said, however, capitalism has also been promoted in a more positive light in the form of Preston B. Whitmore, an eccentric but ultimately good-hearted billionaire who funded the expedition in the first place, and in addition, most of the principal cast was shown to have dreams of getting a better lot in society, with it being heavily implied in the ending that they ultimately succeeded in achieving those dreams after selflessly trying to save Atlantis, which acts as an implicit promotion of both capitalism and the American Dream.

Also significantly tones down the more feminist messaging from the original film. The manner in which Christmas was depicted, however, was closer to the secular view of Christmas than the actual intended meaning of the holiday being a celebration of the birth of [[Jesus Christ]]. The movie overall, however, is objectively of very low quality and pretty forgettable to say the least, and since it is a direct-to-video sequel/midquel realized by another studio (now defunct) and with a lot of incoherences, it's not even canon in the universe of the original animated classic film that preceeded it.

|''Bohemian Rhapsody''
|2018
|PG-13
|A biopic of [[Freddie Mercury]], the lead singer of the band Queen. While it does show elements of the practice of homosexuality and hedonism, at the same time, the film largely condemned the practice since it was made clear that Mercury's embracing of these things was what ultimately ruined Queen and his personal relationships, and is what ultimately killed him via AIDS. In addition, Paul Prenter, the only other major character to embrace homosexuality in the movie, was depicted in a very negative light, as he was one of the reasons Mercury went down a bad path, with it being made clear later on that Paul largely was using Mercury for his own gratification, blamed others for his bad ideas, and even hid vital information from Mercury deliberately such as the Live Aid concert plans as well as Mary Austin calling him. It also had a promotion of redemption, as Mercury, inspired largely by his former girlfriend/wife, Mary Austin nearing the end of the film, attempts to reconnect with his band and family and make amends in the time he had left before dying from AIDS. That all being said, however, it's debatable whether the film intended to paint his homosexual escapades in a negative light, as several members of the production company, including Freddie Mercury's actor Rami Malek, indicated that it was a "regrettable" decision as a result of not having enough time to give a "more balanced" view of (ie, promoting) his bisexual lifestyle.

|A parody of the famous 1970s sitcom, the Bradys still act like their normals selves even though it’s set in the mid 1990s. The plot is about Mike owing the IRS $20,000 in back taxes, and with his 1970s architectural style not being hip with new clients, and spending a bunch of money on trips to the Grand Canyon and Hawaii, they may have to sell the house which is what Larry Dittmeyer needs for his plan to turn the neighborhood into a mall. On one hand, the High School counselor is played by infamous drag queen RuPaul, and Marcia’s friend Noreen is heavily implied to be lesbian. However, Peter who’s going through puberty, eventually builds up the courage to knock down the bully Eric Dittmeyer, and win his crush over, along with the Bradys always sticking together regardless if the house forecloses or not even if the road is rough.

|''Cocaine Bear''
|2023
|R
|This horror-comedy film directed by feminist Elizabeth Banks is loosely based on an incident in 1985 involving a Georgia black bear consuming 75 pounds of cocaine. While the bear in real-life died from an overdose, the bear in the movie lives and terrorizes people in the Chattahoochee National Forest in northern Georgia. On the one hand, there is plenty of swearing (even from the kids), blood, and drug use in this film. On the other hand, the movie also shows the damage drugs can do; the two main kid characters try a brick of cocaine but spit it out immediately. A sense of family is also upheld, as the single mother Sari is determined to find her lost pre-teen daughter despite being in the woods with a cocaine-riddled bear roaming around. Two drug-dealers also eventually decide not to carry out their boss's insane orders, one of them - his son - promising to be a better father to his son (he had left his son in the drug boss's care to drink over his dead wife, which his father and best friend call him out on).

|''Coco''
|2017
|PG
|A beautiful animated film about tradition and family. In Santa Cecilia, Mexico, 12-year-old Miguel Rivera secretly dreams of becoming a musician like Ernesto de la Cruz, a popular actor, and singer of his great-grandmother Coco's generation, despite all music being despised by his family. After entering the Land of the Dead, Miguel encounters Héctor, a down-on-his-luck skeleton who once played music with Ernesto. Héctor offers to help Miguel reach Ernesto; in return, he asks Miguel to take his photo back to the Land of the Living, so that he might visit his now-elderly daughter before she forgets him and he disappears completely. However strong [[feminism]] is present as well, as the men in the movie are all typically weak, and the only strong male figure in the film is the villain. Not to mention it presents a bizarre afterlife without the reality of Heaven, Hell or any need for the Gospel.

|''Django Unchained''
|2012
|R
|Quentin Tarantino's own version of the Django character (there's a scene where the original Italian Django as a cameo and Tarantino's version speak to each other, another tribute by Tarantino to the Spaghetti-Western genre that has always been his source of inspiration). As common for Tarantino's movies, graphic violence with practical effects and the constant use of the word nig*er is the norm also here, but this time there is one revisionist take on the author of the book ''[[The Three Musketeers]]'', in which German former dentist and now bounty hunter Dr. Schultz tells the racist slave owner Calvin Candie that [[Alexandre Dumas]], the author of ''The Three Musketeers'', of which Candie is a reader, is black and said in a way like he was not even French. This, of course, is universally known and proven as very far from being true and it takes very little to debunk this gigantic lie. There's also the ridiculously exaggerated reaction of terrorized people when they see a black man on a horse coming into town, this is surprisingly unrealistic for a Tarantino's movie. However, the reason this film is in this section is because the protagonist Django, when discussing with Schultz the plan to take Django's wife from Candie's plantation pretending to be in the business of slave mandingos, he mentions that there's no worse dishonor than being a black slave owner, and this is a more unique than rare time in which really and historically existed black slave owners in America (just like black [[Confederates]]) are mentioned in a liberal Hollywood film.

|''Fantastic Mr. Fox''
|2009
|PG
|Based on the 1970 children's book of the same name by Roald Dahl, Wes Anderson's first animated film stars Mr. Fox - an anthropomorphic red fox who used to steal farm birds for a living - growing bored of the domestic life. He decides to get back into stealing poultry with the help of a meek opossum named Kylie, but their attempt at one final heist brings three farmers - Boggis, Bunce, and Bean - to target Mr. Fox and his family, and he has to enlist the help of his friends and family to fight back against them. On the one hand, the farmers appear to be capitalists since the store that the animals take food from belongs to the three of them (Roald Dahl had refused to put this in the book when he was alive, saying that it would be too easy of a solution for the animals, as well as concerned that it would teach kids to steal). Mr. Fox's son Ash is also said to be "different," possibly referencing being homosexual or transgender, with Beaver's son even mentioning that Ash dresses like a girl. The characters also swear, though being a PG movie, they replace these swear words with "cuss." On the other hand, while Wes Anderson's style of dysfunctional family shows up here, Mr. Fox ultimately loves his family and would do anything for them, even willing to sacrifice himself to save his nephew when the farmers capture him; he also fights his former partner-in-crime Rat to the death when the latter threatens his son and acts lecherous to his wife. Mr. Fox also deals with the consequences of his thieving ways and vows to make it up to everyone, showing that despite his arrogance, he wants to do right by his friends and family and admits that he had been in the wrong.

|''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996 film)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]''
|1996
|G
|Released during Michael Eisner's presidency at Disney, the film presents a mixed package. The original source material was not intended for children, yet the Disney film was marketed as such to young audiences.

In some cases, the film manages to be slightly more pro-Christian than it's source material. For example, the character of Frollo, who was the corrupt archdeacon in the novel, is now the minister of justice and the Archdeacon is now a separate character voiced by Davis Odegn Steirs, who serves as the positive Christian conscience in the film (albeit the only positive Christian conscience). The Archdeacon is the one responsible for saving Quasimodo from Frollo committing infanticide and encourages Esmeralda to pray to God. Phoebus is also depicted in a good light, an honorable soldier and also was shown to genuinely love Esmeralda, even going as far to save her as well as Quasimodo. This is a stark contrast to the book, where he was a callous womanizer who abandoned Esmeralda to being hanged.

Christian imagery is present throughout the film, appropriate since Notre Dame is an actual location, as opposed to several Disney films during the Renaissance where churches are absent of religious imagery to be more politically correct. The Latin Requiem Mass is also present in the musical score.

Unlike most films in the Disney animated canon, this film actually has the character's relying to God's grace to resolve the conflict, instead of relying on some special magic.

On the other hand, in some cases, the film actually manages to be even darker than the original novel. Originally, Quasimodo's vicious punishment at the hands of the Parisians during the Feast of Fools ceremony was out of corporal punishment; while in the Disney film, it had been done at the whim of the Parisians just for the sake of it. In addition, Frollo himself was also made significantly more villainous in the movie compared to in the book despite being separated from the archdeacon role, removing most of his redeemable traits in the book (case in point, in the film, Frollo was responsible for killing Quasimodo's mother and nearly killed Quasimodo himself as a baby until being made to raise him as penance by the archdeacon, and was depicted as an abusive father figure overall, as well as depicted as sadistic, in contrast to the original novel, where he willingly took in Quasimodo when he was in fact abandoned by his mom and was depicted as a fairly good father figure, at least until Esmerelda entered the picture). Some Christian concepts were also removed from the film in an attempt to increase Frollo's villainy as a result (for example, Quasimodo in the film was named such as an insult to his deformed appearance, while in the book he was actually named after Quasimodo Tuesday). It's also debatable as to whether it's pro-Christian overall since while the Archdeacon himself was a positive influence, most of the other Christian characters, without even counting Frollo, were nevertheless depicted in a very negative light. The director's commentary also implied that they may have engaged in blasphemous material by having Frollo in the crucifix pose as he's descending into Hell during the visuals for Hellfire.<ref>DVD Commentary: "Here's some more of our ham-fisted symbolism--Frollo falls down in the shape of a crucifix!"</ref> The film, however, shows a clear case of divine punishment in animation, represented by the death of Frollo literally seeing the Devil in the face before falling to his horrible death into the "fiery pit". Also pretty ironic, considering that his last words a few instants before his death were "And he shall smite the wicked, and plunge them into the fiery pit!", when he was going to kill Esmeralda and Quasimodo with his sword.

To make the film even darker, a gypsy genocide plot is introduced, and Paris was also the victim of arson late into the film. The song 'Hellfire' was also notorious for making explicit references to lust. Not necessarily a bad or negative thing, can be considered corageous, original, surprising and entertaining artistically speaking and for families with kids who are not "snowflakes". However, this is a stark contrast to most other Disney film adaptations, which have a history of toning down the original works (as in ''[[The Jungle Book]]'', in which Disney advised the writers to ignore the book specifically because its contents were unsuitable for children). However, on the other hand, other films from the Walt's era were more dark with particular horror and dramatic elements than their original counterparts and source materials, like ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs]]'', ''[[Pinocchio]]'' (with evil and sadistic Stromboli unlike his novel countepart Mangiafuoco, the demonic and sa distici Coachman and all the cursed Pleasure Island with the impressive children turning into donkeys scene, and the terrifying whale Monstro), all the ''[[Night on Bald Mountain]]'' segment in ''[[Fantasia]]'' (with Chernabog and even harpies showing bare breasts, though for a few seconds), ''[[Dumbo]]'' (with its Pink Elephants on Parade allucination caused by accidental consumption of alcohol), ''[[Bambi]]'' (for the (in)famous scene of the death of Bambi's mother), ''[[Sleeping Beauty]]'' and ''[[101 Dalmatians]]'', this latter two specifically for their villains' scenes (Maleficent and Cruella De Vil). The Gypsies were also depicted in a more positive light, to the extent that they at times were considered preferable to Christianity, despite Gypsies essentially being pagans. Hints at race swapping were also included in the film, as Esmerelda was made into an ethnic gypsy in the movie, when in the original book, she was actually a blonde parisienne and the daughter of an anchoress who was abducted by the gypsies and made into their own.

Worst of all, one of the male gargoyles falls in love with Djali, who is male according to some descriptions (voiced, however, by a female voice-actress and fans mostly refer to it as a female goat, and probably the gargoyle confused Djali with a female goat, assumption supported by his known clear stupidity), which may have meant that liberals will subtly shoehorn the homosexual agenda into anything, even the gargoyles of Notre Dame (and also comes across as extremely hypocritical and blasphemous due to homosexuality being tolerated even less by God than Frollo's lust for Esmerelda, based on God explicitly referring to the concept as an abomination in Leviticus as well as his destroying Sodom and Gomorrah largely because of the practice of homosexuality). However, this should be taken with a grain of salt, because the DVD audio commentary Kirk Wise (co-director), Gary Trousdale (co-director), and Don Hahn (producer) suggest that it's possible that the three gargoyles exist purely in Quasimodo's mind and are in fact split off portions of his own personality created to deal with his loneliness. This doesn't explain, however, their scenes when Quasimodo is absent, how animals (especially Esmeralda's goat) can see them alive, the damage thev do to Frollo's soldiers in the climax, and their constant change of positions when they stop animating themselves.<ref> '''Gary Trousdale:''' We've always operated under the assumption that the gargoyles were kind of figments of Quasimodo's imagination. They didn't really move around, or did they? You know...

'''Kirk Wise:''' Yeah, we like leaving a little bit of a question mark; kind of like Harvey the rabbit or Calvin and Hobbes.

'''Gary Trousdale:''' They're inanimate when anybody else comes in the room. They don't talk to anybody else, except the goat. So that's here we kind of crossed the line a little bit.

'''Kirk Wise:''' We like to keep it a little bit iffy. </ref>. So this matter could have less to do with the liberal agenda and more to do with poor writing. On a positive note, it is to be noted that the directors admitted that the implication that Hugo lusted after Djali was a line that even the directors admitted they shouldn't have crossed, which is a rarity ''especially'' in today's media where they are all for crossing said line.

|''The Iron Giant''
|1999
|PG
|This animation espouses anti-war themes and also brief but strong anti-hunting sentiments. Firearms in general are shown in a negative light, with the phrase "guns kill" being repeated a total of three times. The titular giant is referred to as a "big gun that walks." From a conservative viewpoint, he is a poor metaphor for a real gun; unlike a law-abiding citizen who is a gun owner, the giant has no choice in his actions because he is a war machine programmed with the inability to use his weapons for good, but only to use them thoughtlessly and senselessly. The story involves him learning to hide his weapons and "not be a gun". The conclusion is that, in order to protect the public from an incoming missile, he must fly into it and kill himself rather than use his guns against it. As it is explained, "It's bad to kill, but it isn't bad to die." In addition, despite being set during the Cold War, it largely downplays the Soviet menace that was occurring during that time, as the main antagonist, Kent Mansley, is a government agent (implied to be part of the NSA) investigating the titular Iron Giant who at one point while launching a tirade against Hogarth Hughes alludes to the possibility that the Communists may have been responsible for the Giant's creation as a means to destroy America and that they must destroy it before "it destroys us" and is treated negatively for it. Also features some foul language.

That all being said, however, despite the definite anti-gun and anti-hunting themes, the film does portray the military in a fairly positive light, as General Rogarth was shown to be even-headed and only willing to use military force if confronted with evidence requiring for it, also making clear that he was not happy about bringing out an implied large military force for what was apparently a hoax, and while the military does try to attack the Iron Giant late into the film, it was only because they had been manipulated into doing so by Kent Mansley by the latter lying about the giant killing Hogarth Hughes, and only when confronted with evidence that Hogarth had in fact been alive did the military stand down. In addition, when Hogarth left to investigate the evidence of a "martian" taking out an antenna, he proceeded to salute a photograph of his father, who was implied to have died during World War II. Also has a positive portrayal of the American icon Superman in it. There's also an anti-materialist message in it as well as an implicitly Christian message, as Hogarth talks to the Giant about how humans and other forms of life possess souls that live on even after their mortal bodies die.

|Not Rated
|Although this film is a bastardization of the original [[Frosty the Snowman]] special in which it retcons almost everything to push an anti-comformity message and presents youth rebellion in a positive light. It does have a very strong message of honor thy father. The villain also attacks [[imagination]], after he becomes a corrupt politician.

|The film has Liberals changing history to suit their feminist agenda similar to what they did in Pocahontas as well as some historical revisionism (In the film the Huns are at war with China, even though this never happened, although that said, the name of the villain, Shan Yu, hints at them being Xiongyu). However, the central theme of [[Filial piety]] from work it was based on, [[The Ballad of Mulan]], is still present ultimately, as the main reason Mulan joined the military was because her father suffered a severe injury that made him unfit for combat, and the film is pro-Military.

| ''[[Pollyanna (1960 film)|Pollyanna]]''
| 1960
| G
| One of [[Walt Disney]]’s live-action classics stars an orphaned girl who now lives with her wealthy aunt Polly Harrington who is the de facto leader of the town (Harrington) due to her massive wealth and influence over the Church. Pollyanna herself helps the miserable and depressed find happiness again wether it’s the “glad game” or doing simple stuff to make rainbows with crystals. It promotes the idea of small town Americana, and social values with going to Church, and praying before eating. It also shows the town getting together to hold a bazar (hosted by the Church) to raise money for a new orphanage. That being said, the film opens with a nude boy swinging on a rope into a water hole.

|''The Princess and the Frog''
|2009
|G
|Liberals praised this film for featuring Disney's first African American princess but ignored the fact that it insults Christianity with Louisiana Voodoo, even replacing the traditional role of the fairy godmother with a blind voodoo priestess. On top of that, ''The Princess and the Frog'' is said to have stolen much of its plot from the film ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'' <ref>http://crowdofstars.livejournal.com/14186.html</ref> That being said, however, it does depict traditional femininity in a positive light in the form of the side character Charlotte LeBoeuf, and is the first Disney animated feature film to have a positive depiction of traditional marriage since ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'' two decades prior. It's also debatable as to whether it promotes feminism, as aside from Charlotte LeBoeuf being depicted in a positive light overall as noted above, it implies at one point that Tiana achieving her dreams of being a CEO is ultimately a negative due to the main villain Dr. Facilier using that to tempt her into aiding him.

|''Pulp Fiction''
|1994
|R
|Despite saying the F-word in almost every sentence, the film (surprisingly) has a pro-Christian message as after being shot at, every bullet misses mob hit men Jules Winnfield and Vincent Vega. Winnfield believes it was a divine intervention and message from God to stop his life of crime. His partner doesn't believe this but it's later proven to be true as he perished later on in the movie. Also has sadomasochistic homosexuals as the bad guys. And (sort of) has an anti-drug message as mob boss's girlfriend Mia Wallace is seen also overdosing (a negative side to drugs) on heroin.

On the other hand, the main villain is also a feminist, and the main human protagonist is shown praying for not only herself (even she has been kidnapped) but for all the kids in the orphanage (who have not been kidnapped). This is one of the by now rare Disney films feature a [[Christian]] character that's treated in a positive light.

|''Robin Hood''
|1973
|G
|Animated Disney adaptation of the iconic story, depicting all of the characters as anthropomorphic animals. Although the story itself was based on [[Joseph Ritson]]'s revised version of the character that was in support of the Jacobin cause and thus was a liberal icon (steals from the rich, gives to the poor), the villain is Prince John who makes his money from taxes, suggesting Robin Hood is only giving money the government demanded back to people who actually worked for it. It also features a condemnation of government encroachment of the church, as a pivotal scene featured the Sheriff of Nottingham explicitly stealing a coin from the poor box and his later arresting Friar Tuck for trying to stop him, and the Sheriff's actions were clearly being framed in a horrible light.

|''[[Rogue One: A Star Wars Story]]''
|2016
|PG-13
|A group of freedom fighters undertake a dangerous mission in an attempt to steal the plans for the Galactic Empire's ultimate weapon, the Death Star. Unlike the previous Star Wars films, the focus of this one is on soldiers on the battlefield, their goal to restore liberty to the Galaxy. This gives the movie a strong feeling of American patriotism, and could also be argued to show respect to the U.S. military. However, the screenwriters Chris Weitz and Gary Whitta made tweets that implied that they were trying to push the leftist Diversity agenda just after Trump won the presidency, as well as used a customized version of the Rebel Starbird logo with a safety pin attached, and one of the main characters, Saw Gerrera, was stated to be based on Marxist revolutionary [[Che Guevara]] and was treated in a (comparably) positive light.

|''Saw''
|2004-2010, 2017
|R (Director's Cuts are NC-17)
|The franchise contains an anti-nihilist message, with the antagonist, John Kramer, also known as "the Jigsaw Killer," wishing for his victims to survive the "games" in which he places them, ultimately emerging with a better appreciation for their lives. For example, ''Saw'' condemns the adultery committed by Dr. Lawrence Gordon. ''Saw III'' focuses on the value of forgiveness, John having Jeff Denlon complete three tests involving the three people whom he blamed for the death of his young son. ''Saw IV'' contains a very strong message of letting go and letting people find salvation and redemption for themselves, an allusion to biblical passages about the subject. However, it could also be argued that Jigsaw is playing God with the value of human life, by bringing his test subjects to the very edge of death, forcing them to gravely hurt themselves, in order to survive. Furthermore, in ''Saw III'', one of his apprentices, Amanda Young, is revealed to have rigged traps to kill her victims, even if they successfully complete their games, as she no longer believes in Jigsaw's philosophy. However, John is shown clearly shown to be disgusted by Amanda's actions, though nevertheless trying to guide her to redemption, or at least his version of it. Other condemnations of nihilism include the clearly sociopathic depiction of corrupt Detective Mark Hoffman, the most important of Jigsaw's apprentices, as he, like Amanda, strays from John's philosophy and simply rigs traps to murder his victims, while also carrying out the games that John had planned before his death at the end of ''Saw III.''

Towards the end, it is revealed he took the scholarship away from someone who needed it as well (and is really black) because she has a son and is divorced at such a young age. The movie portyals the police as racist, and blames racism on many things, and seems to support the need for affirmative action. But on a conservative note, the film teaches the importance of hard work, and is also politically incorrect.

|''[[Star Wars]]''
|1977-1983 (Original Trilogy); 1999-2005 (Prequel Trilogy); 2015-2019 (Sequel Trilogy)
|PG, PG-13 (Episode III & Episodes VII-IX)
|The well-known space opera series is mostly composed of simple truths about the triumph of good over evil, and in the case of ''Episode VI: Return of the Jedi'', redemption. However, ''Episode VI'' also contained some implied pro-[[Vietcong]] propaganda at George Lucas' behest via the Ewoks, as well as his later claiming that the entirety of the ''Star Wars'' saga from ''Episodes IV''-''VI'' was meant to be his means of protesting Vietnam (which is supported by a memo dating back to 1973 where he claimed the film was about "A large technological empire going after a small group of freedom fighters." It is also to be noted that this was not the first time he voiced support for the Vietcong as well as used film to push an anti-American/anti-War agenda, as he also initially played a role in the filming of ''Apocalypse Now''<ref>http://nypost.com/2014/09/21/how-star-wars-was-secretly-george-lucas-protest-of-vietnam/</ref>), and the re-release for ''Episode IV: A New Hope'' also had an infamous edit where it made it seem as though Greedo shot at Han first, with George Lucas later revealing he did the edit (or rather, falsely claimed it was always that way) as a means to promote gun control. Regarding the pro-Vietcong sentiment being pushed in ''Return of the Jedi'', former president [[Richard Nixon]] in his 1985 book ''No More Vietnams'' cited ''Return of the Jedi'' as ultimately one reason why America, at least by that time, had initially felt so guilty of their strength that they were unwilling to use it even to defend their freedom and that of others.<ref>''No More Vietnams'' by Richard Nixon, 1985 Chapter 1: The assertion that our very bigness is badness has infested our culture to a surprising degree. The creator of the phenomenally successful Star Wars series recently explained that the climactic scene in one of his moves - in which the evil “Empire’s” giant war machines are destroyed by fuzzy little good guys with wooden bows and arrows - was inspired by the Vietnam experience. No matter that in Vietnam the Communist “good guys” packed Soviet automatic rifles and, in 1975, rode state-of-the-art Russian tanks across the South Vietnamese border. The propaganda of disproportionate forces in Vietnam, the myth of small/good versus big/bad, did enough damage to help lose the war for the United States and the people of South Vietnam. Today it is one symptom of the Vietnam syndrome to the extent that it makes Americans ashamed of their power, guilty about being strong, and forgetful about the need to be willing to use their power to protect their freedom and the freedom of others.</ref>

The prequel trilogy also had some implied pot-shots at then-president George W. Bush and his War on Terror, and there was also an implied promotion of moral relativity in ''Revenge of the Sith'' (where Obi-Wan, when confronting Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader in the climax, stated in reply to Anakin's declaration that Obi-Wan is his enemy if he's not with him that "only a Sith deals in absolutes."). A similar promotion of moral relativity and postmodernism was shown in ''Return of the Jedi'' where Obi-Wan admitted that his claim that Vader killed Anakin Skywalker was "true from a certain point of view," as well as further elaborating his claim by stating that "[[Subjectivism|a great many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our point of view.]]" The same movie's ending also carries an implicit promotion of cannibalism. In addition, the Trade Federation and its motives in ''The Phantom Menace'' was crafted by George Lucas to be a negative response to the Republican Revolution of 1994, and in particular Newt Gingrich's Contract with America (with Gingrich himself being a partial namesake of the main villain, Viceroy Nute Gunray). ''Attack of the Clones'' and to a lesser extent ''Revenge of the Sith'' also had very blatant anti-war themes and a very negative portrayal of the military, as a large part of the plot involved creating a military for the republic (and in the case of ''Revenge of the Sith'', the near end of the Clone Wars), with the narrative strongly implying that even forming a military at all was somehow a threat to freedom. To a lesser extent, the Prequel trilogy also has a negative depiction of family values, since it's implied that even holding attachments to family or trying to start a family leads directly to turning to the Dark Side, with Yoda even stating that such acted as "the shadow of greed." Lucas, in an interview with Time Magazine, also made similar jabs on family when explaining Anakin's character arc and his eventually becoming Darth Vader, where he said "Because he [Anakin Skywalker] gets attached to things...He can't let go of his mother...his girlfriend...things. It makes you greedy. And when you're greedy, you are on the path to the dark side because you fear that you're going to lose things. You fear you're not going to have the power you need."<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20020923140712/http://cgi.theforce.net/theforce/tfn.cgi?storyID=15712</ref>

In addition, the director for ''Episode VII: The Force Awakens'', [[J.J. Abrams]], admitted in a press release that he deliberately made Finn black in order to ensure diversity among the characters, hinting at it pushing the leftist [[diversity]] agenda.<ref>https://www.cnet.com/news/director-j-j-abrams-weighs-in-on-diversity-in-the-star-wars-universe/?_escaped_fragment_=#! Two audience members jointly asked Abrams whether -- given his track record of helping build a diverse cast as director of the "Star Trek" reboot films -- he could confirm if there will be more Asian characters in the Star Wars universe. Asian characters are few and far between in the Star Wars franchise -- one appears in the original trilogy's last film, ''Return of the Jedi'', but for only four seconds before dying in a fiery explosion. Abrams said that while he won't be casting future films in the franchise, because he's directing only ''Episode VII'', he did include Asian characters in ''The Force Awakens'', which opened December 18. "I think it's important people see themselves represented in film," Abrams said. "I think it's not a small thing."</ref> Also, the film also hints at a militant [[feminist]] agenda by having Leia act as general and Rey not allowing anyone to save her, something that conservative commentator John Nolte mentioned was a [[detraction]] for the film.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2015/12/17/star-wars-the-force-awakens-review-j-j-abrams-repents-for-the-sins-of-george-lucas/</ref> In addition, the ending award ceremony in ''A New Hope'' was deliberately modeled after the stadium scene from the infamous Nazi movie propaganda ''The Triumph of the Will''. Ian McDiarmid, the actor who played the saga's main villain [[Emperor Palpatine]], had also implied in an interview with ''The Guardian'' around the time ''Revenge of the Sith'' was released that George Lucas had deliberately made the films for primarily eight-year olds specifically to indoctrinate them into Lucas' leftist view of the world.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2005/nov/07/theatre1 He [McDiarmid] also bristles at the notion that the Star Wars films are totally hollow entertainments. "I remember when I sat there in the Evil Emperor's swivel chair and George [Lucas] said things like 'does it remind you of the Oval office?' And I realised that at that time Richard Nixon was in his mind. 

"And I see that in the Guardian's review of the DVD - not favourable, of course - mention is made of the fact that there are lines that sound really contemporary. But the reviewer decided that was by chance: no, no, no, no. Entirely by design. 

"George knew that eight-year-olds, for whom these films are primarily intended, are very impressionable, and he wanted to make the right impression. So the whole film is about the unnecessary rise of fascism. In other words: watch out, they're all after your freedom, particularly when they're talking about defending freedom. Without getting over-extended about it, that is at the heart of these movies."</ref>

|''Starship Troopers''
|1997
|R
|Although it overall depicts the Military in a protagonistic light and arguably is pro-war and pro-military, the director of the film, Paul Verhoeven, implied it was actually supposed to push an anti-military, anti-war message where it implied that America during the Cold War were automatically fascists simply because they are entering war, and specifically stated it was "a natural evolution for post-World War II America." In addition, to reinforce Verhoeven's message, he deliberately modeled various scenes after ''Triumph of the Will'' and other pro-Nazi propaganda scenes, as well as modeled the protagonists' uniforms after the uniforms utilized by the Nazis (i.e., the character Carl, played by Neil Patrick Harris, wearing a uniform that was modeled after the [[SS]]). When asked by Michael Ironside, who was one of the people who had a role in the movie and had read the original book, about why he made the movie despite Verhoeven's leftist politics, he answered "If I tell the world that a right-wing, fascist way of doing things doesn't work, no one will listen to me. So I'm going to make a perfect fascist world: everyone is beautiful, everything is shiny, everything has big guns and fancy ships, but it's only good for killing ******* bugs!" (note that fascism is not "right wing", it is left wing, so Verhoeven's incorrect regarding which wing the Nazis/fascists were part of).

However, it also has messages of anti-bullying, anti-crime, and anti-corruption. The protagonist is Melvin Ferd, a scrawny guy who works as a janitor and the local gym and gets pushed around by a bully named Bozo. Bozo and his friends conspire to humiliate Melvin, which ends up with Melvin in a pink tutu and falling head first into a barrel of toxic waste. The chemicals mutate him into a large, deformed mutant with superhuman strength. Melvin, adopting the superhero name "Toxie" then goes around Tromaville fighting crime including: attacking a gang of thugs beating up a police officer who refuses to take a bribe, protecting a Mexican restaurant from an armed robbery and saving a young blind woman named Sara (who becomes Toxie's love interest) from being raped, and rescuing a 12-year-old prostitute from her evil pimp. Tromaville's leadership is shown to be extremely corrupt, with mayor Peter Belgoody who collaborates with the criminals, and the Chief of Police who is a literal Nazi, hinting at an anti-government corruption message.

Essay:Worst Liberal Video Games

2025-01-20T02:07:05Z

Shobson20: /* Top Heavy Studios */

The [[video game industry]] is a very [[liberal]] market, which is why many [[conservative]] organizations, [[church]]es, and [[Christianity|Christian]] educational institutions criticize video games. Here are some of the worst examples of liberalism in video games by developer:

==Definitely liberal==
===Acclaim Entertainment===
*''BMX XXX'': A "sports game" that included pornographic elements as well as more foul language and adult humor, presumably in an attempt to salvage the game by turning it into a raunchy sex comedy-style game. The game was rather infamous for the controversy that ensued for the company, namely that they falsely put real life BMX athlete [[Dave Mirra]]'s name on the title that indicated that he supported it when he specifically requested that his name not be attached to it, as well as various retailers giving extremely negative reviews due to its content, leading to poor sales and ultimately to Acclaim's bankruptcy.

===Blizzard Entertainment===
*''Overwatch'': Multiplayer shooter game that caters to SJWs and Cultural Marxists by needlessly making a popular character a lesbian, as well as adding in a muscular lesbian when leftists were offended by the game. The story of the game also subtly condemns private business while promoting the left-wing United Nations. In addition, it recently came under fire when Soldier 76, the closest the game had to a conservative character, was turned homosexual for absolutely no reason.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2019/01/overwatch-turns-the-last-normal-character-gay/74757/</ref>

===Capcom===
*''Dead Rising'' series: The series deals with a bioterror attack at various places resulting in the creation of zombies, as well as fighting against psychopaths who were either driven mad from tragic circumstances relating to the event, or otherwise used the event as an excuse for committing terrorist acts. The terrorists directly responsible for the events in question are generally depicted in a sympathetic manner, while the hidden villains, with the exception of ''Dead Rising 2'', are usually military personnel, with the latter not being depicted in a sympathetic manner. The background of the first game regarding the Santa Cabenza operation also indicated that the Zombrex formula was initially created in an attempt to boost beef production, which may be a subtle condemnation of [[capitalism]].
*''Killer7:'' Aside from portraying assassinations in a positive light, the game also has implicit anti-American views in the plot due to commentary provided in the ''Hand in Killer7'' handbook by the game's creator.<ref>''Hand in Killer7'', "Since the foundation of the United States of America, many organizations and political parties struggled for power. Although history recognizes the United States of America's government as a democratic republic, it is rumored that a shadow government really runs the country."</ref>
*''DmC: Devil May Cry''*: The game's themes are anti-capitalist and the game even has a parody of Bill O'Reilly in the form of the character Bob Barbas, along with Raptor News Network parodying media like Fox News. The game also contains excessive swearing, juvenile humor, hookers and an overall bad story with accompanying terribly written dialogue. The producer of the game said that the game intended to poke fun at modern issues that are "depressingly familiar". This game is also an insult to a beloved series which isn't political in the first place and actually has good stories with christian themes.
===Destructive Studios===
*''Hatred'': The game's entire premise dealt with playing as a psychopathic and misanthropic spree killer trying to kill as many people as possible, and culminates in engineering a nuclear meltdown. Pro-terrorism, as well, with hints at a massively nihilistic outlook. There's also evidence that it plagiarized the ''Postal'' series of games in terms of overall plot and gameplay. Was also notorious for managing to be sold largely because of its controversy and other than that was not popular at all due to it encouraging killing for no justifications whatsoever.

===Electronic Arts===
Electronic Arts is a game producer based in California. Some of the games they produce are okay, but others are quite liberal. Electronic Arts is now the parent company of Maxis, which was created by an [[atheist]].
*Spore: The game revolves around the concept of [[Evolution]].

===HudsonSoft===
* ''Cho Aniki'' series: Blatantly of the LGBT agenda.

===Illusion Softworks===
* Mafia series: Glorifies every aspect of the Italian mafia, with the third Mafia game promoting the radical Black Panthers, and featuring a minor lesbian protagonist.

===Insomniac===
* ''Spider-Man'': Despite Spider-Man aiding the police and stopping crimes (which ironically got the game condemned by the leftist media as promoting [[authoritarian]] [[police state]]s), the game pushed several anti-Trump messages via the characters Kingpin and Norman Osborne, with the former having Mary Jane Watson quipping that he plans to "Make New York Great Again" in an obvious attempt at connecting him to Trump's Make America Great Again slogan. There's also a feminist agenda being pushed with the characters Mary Jane, Silver Sable and to a lesser degree Black Cat.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2018/09/editorial-insomniacs-spider-man-is-political-but-the-media-was-too-dumb-to-see-it/69744/</ref>

===Konami===
Konami has supported then-FLOTUS [[Michelle Obama]]'s Let's Move [[exercise]] program in 2013 during E3. In addition, they also tend to have very liberal games on market such as:

* The ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' series by Hideo Kojima blatantly pushes anti-Americanism, post-modernism, nihilism, and also hints at anarchism being preferable to law and order. It also has some praise for May 1968, and Peace Walker infamously has most of the cast hero-worshipping ''[[Che Guevara]]''. Kojima was also shown to be a big Obama supporter, especially in regards to the latter wanting to get rid of nuclear weapons. There was also an anti-Colonial settlement in several of the games, and has also promoted LGBT politics in the form of Dr. Strangelove. Notable examples include:
** ''Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty'' is notorious for being the first [[Postmodernism|postmodern]] game in the history of gaming. It also is extremely anti-American, with Hideo Kojima in his Grand Game Plan for the game even explicitly stating that America as a culture was meant to represent the biggest evil in the game, with the same source implying that Solid Snake, one of the few characters who was on the good spectrum, acted as a spy for Communist China.<ref>Metal Gear Solid 2: Grand Game Plan (http://www.gamepitches.com/2012/01/kojima-productions-metal-gear-solid-2-sons-of-liberty-design-document/), page 36-37.
;Absolute evil in MGS2

Evil in Hollywood films has always changed depending on the time in which the film’s story takes place. In the American market, where audiences like to see good triumph over evil, the absolute enemy – be it a race, country or setting – has always changed with the values of the times. MGS2 will be developed with mainly the American market in mind, though it will also consider countries in the European market, such as Germany, France, Britain and Italy. Therefore, the particulars of its ‘evil’ must be handled carefully. It should be noted that we face no such problem with Japan. 

Westerns -> Native Americans 

Post-WWII war films -> Germany, Japan 

Cold War-era spy films -> Russia 

Post-Cold War films -> China 

Following the signing of the friendship treaty between the US and China -> Japanese businesses(the collapse of the bubble economy) 

1990s -> Terrorism 

;MGS2’s evil
The evil in MGS2 is the American government. However, this does not refer to Americans in general, nor to any particular persons, but to the festering discharge that has built-up within the democratic state of America over the years. The intention is not to defame any race, state or ethnicity, but rather to look at the ‘monster’ that the country’s political structure has created. It is an intangible entity yet at the same time a massive menace to the world, about on the same level as the evil in The X-Files. It could be called a throwback to the somewhat classic type of evil. It is this hidden hand of the American government, the Patriots, that has both created madmen like Solidus and the members of Dead Cell and has also used them for its own ends. 

;Absolute evil

The Patriots -> the shadowy organization that controls the American government 

People used by them:

Solidus -> current President of the United States of America 

Colonel Gurlukovich -> a Russian who wishes to see his country rebuilt 

People they must be careful of: 

Vamp -> ex-Stasi 

Old Boy -> former Nazi army colonel 

Snake -> a spy for China?</ref> The same source also implies that it intended to push a feminist agenda.<ref>http://www.gamepitches.com/2012/01/kojima-productions-metal-gear-solid-2-sons-of-liberty-design-document/

"'''Story''' 
Having an iconic female character (Fortune), like in the previous game, as well as an ordinary woman involved with the main character, will add both a realistic and romantic element to the game. 
‘The 21st century will be the age of women, when women will protect men’"</ref> Both main villains, who espoused American values (to the extent that they were even named Sons of Liberty and Patriots) and were fighting each other, were shown or heavily implied to be complicit in terrorist acts, and several of the characters, both good and bad, were shown to do very amoral things, including constantly betraying each other. Solid Snake in the ending later gave a message on how there was never such a thing as "[[absolute reality]]" and how "reality" was just "cleverly disguised fiction", meaning he was essentially pushing nihilism. The game also briefly implies that Solid Snake had conducted terrorist attacks while in Philanthropy, with it overall being glossed over. In addition, some of the main villains, the Gurlukovich Mercenaries, who were strongly implied to be Communists, were depicted in a more sympathetic light compared to the other villains. Ironically, the game ended up being released around the time of the September 11 attacks. Kojima, in an interview dated back in 1999, implied that the game was meant to push the exact same themes as ''The Matrix'' by [[the Wachowski Brothers]] (as they were known at the time, and who were personal friends of him), including the concept of how reality was an illusion.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20130328062143/http://www.gamespot.com/news/hideo-kojima-speaks-about-the-matrix-2448486</ref>
** ''Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots'' has the player aiding implied Muslim terrorists and Communist insurgents in the first two acts. In addition, there was a brief promotion of the crackpot Global Warming ideology at the beginning of Act 4. It also depicts the main antagonist Liquid Ocelot's desire for the destruction of the Patriots and the creation of pure anarchy in a positive light nearing the end. It also juxtapositions the United States and the Soviet Union symbolism during Big Mama's speech, implying that they were little different from each other. It also glosses over the complications posed by Sunny "keeping the brain cell intact" (in particular, Drebin 893, a gun launderer, implies both that the resulting Patriot shutdown will result in a massive boom for his business, and also that the UN would end up taking over the entire planet after the events of the shutdown of the War Economy and the Patriots resulted in multiple countries going broke and being in significant enough debt that even PMC regulation laws wouldn't come close to closing it off, as well as America being affected to the degree that it has to give up on unilateralism, and also briefly implying that the UN will likely come the closest towards a successor group to the Patriots and that the cycle will continue, with the story treating it as drunken ramblings.), and also heavily implies a more unrealistic view of government control similar to more left-wing views on how things work when all the characters are acting as though if Liquid Ocelot either took control of the Patriots directly or otherwise just wiped them out altogether, the key essentials to human civilization - water, air, electricity, food, medicine, communication and transportation - would be negatively affected to catastrophic levels, many times forgetting that most if not all of those would either not have been impacted at all by the Patriots shutdown (due to existing well before the Patriots or the Philosophers before them were even an idea) or otherwise being a minor inconvenience at worst. Was also notable as being the first entry to the series to have a character (Laughing Octopus) drop the f-bomb in dialogue in the English release (in ''Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater'', the character EVA also dropped the f-bomb in English to Colonel Volgin in the Japanese version, but this was toned down overseas to "Go to hell!"). And while the game does have a subtle condemnation to [[gun control]] in the form of the Sons of the Patriots system, at the same time, it also seems to promote people killing each other for the sheer sake of it as evidenced by Liquid Ocelot's comments before his death, and also implies that to some extent, the gun control implanted by Liquid Ocelot when he took over the SOP system ended all conflict and treated that as a silver lining. While not in the game itself, the teaser site for the game and other games being made by Kojima Productions during that time, released during E3 2006 had an overall background theme that invoked left-wing revolutions and riots, even saying as their tagline "Kojima Productions' next revolt" including spraypainting and fists being raised with yells.<ref>http://www.konami.jp/kojima_pro/e3_2006/</ref>
** ''Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker'' was very left-wing in its outlook, even by ''Metal Gear'' series standards. One of the more infamous aspects of the game had the various main characters, including the co-protagonists Big Boss and Kazuhira Miller, giving a very fawning account on the Marxist terrorist Che Guevara, completely ignoring his role in nearly causing the Cuban Missile Crisis to become a full on nuclear war despite two of the main villains doing exactly that, not to mention Big Boss trying to put a stop to two attempts at launching a nuke twice, one at Cuba and another at America. In the case of Big Boss and Miller, it also conflicts completely with their histories, which had them, respectively, feeling guilt for killing The Boss (as well as implying at one point that the Cuban Missile Crisis was ultimately responsible for the aforementioned action) and growing up in Japan during that time with the adults explicitly panicking respectively. Later twitter posts supplied by his secretary depicted pictures of Kojima blatantly posing near a framed portrait of Che Guevara's infamous portrait as well as him carrying a Che Guevara tote bag, which implied the pro-Che Guevara narrative in the game was due to Hideo Kojima projecting his views into the game at the expense of the story.<ref>https://twitter.com/Kaizerkunkun/status/900937994143649792</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/Kaizerkunkun/status/1190763430497542144</ref> Aside from Che, Miller and Big Boss also proceeded to briefly mention Mao Zedong once via his book ''On Protracted War'' while implying they similarly held him in high regard as well. The various characters also gave very anti-American views, including condemning the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, the firebombing of Tokyo, the post-war period of Japan, and also repeating the usual condemnations towards American involvement in South and Central America, many times completely ignoring or at most glossing over Soviet involvement in the region as well. One character, a French woman named Cecile Cosima Caminades, also was implied to be very sexually loose, and also gives a glowing account of the horrendous events of the [[May 1968 riots]] in France (including falsely implying that the vast majority of Paris and even France as a whole had participated in or at least were influenced by the events of May 1968, despite it, similar to the Hippie movement, actually only being a minority rabble of Trotskyite and Maoist groups trying to impose their will on society, and that it actually ruined France rather than the game's implication that it actually turned out for the better unlike the Hippie movement or similar movements in Japan.) and also was a fangirl of notorious Existentialist philosopher Jean Paul Sartre (her fangirlism to him was made more explicit in the Japanese version, where she actually squeals in excitement when Big Boss mentions that he was the same guy who infamously referred to Che Guevara as "the most complete man of the century."). It also has some implied LGBT agenda pushing in the form of Dr. Strangelove, who is strongly implied to be a lesbian, as well as one mission featuring Big Boss and Miller entering a date and being implied to have engaged in homosexual sex upon the completion. The CIA was also depicted in a very negative light, being the main antagonistic force in the game, and the initial main villain Hot Coldman, a station chief in Central America and an implied former Director for the CIA, was depicted as a madman. It also paints the FSLN in a sympathetic light and, in a clear breach with real-life history, depicts them actually revolting against the KGB late in the game, as well as largely glossing over their crimes (in an even more egregrious note, the Sandinista Comandante Amanda was implied in dialogue to be a Christian despite the fact that the FSLN, being a Communist organization, was explicitly Atheistic in its outlook). When covering the game at Tokyo Game Show 2009, Hideo Kojima heavily implied that deterrence was bad, as was holding any form of military at all,<ref>https://www.gamespot.com/articles/kojima-talks-peace-walker/1100-6230488/ "There's the philosophy of nuclear deterrence," Kojima continued. "America and Russia just kept piling up on their nuclear weapons. And when you have an army, it deters enemies from invading. That's yet another theory of deterrence. Why can't we get rid of nuclear arms and soldiers from the world? I'm sure that everyone's thought about it. And then there's the reality, which I hope players will think about as they're playing Peace Walker. Back then, it was a time when these theories were actually thought to be effective. And now, we're paying the price. We've still got tons of nuclear weapons scattered all over the world."</ref> which is further supported by the game frequently quoting Enlightenment philosopher and leftist [[Immanuel Kant]] and his tract ''On Perpetual Peace'', one of the quotes, given in the first ending, being from Chapter 1 of the treatise where he explicitly calls for the total abolishment of any and all armies. In addition, it also had Kojima during development reporting glowingly on Barack Obama's Prague Speech on a World without Nukes.<ref>http://ameblo.jp/kp-blogcast/entry-10361111977.html 『核なき世界』をプラハで宣言したオバマ大統領がノーベル平和賞を受賞した。ようやく時代が動き出したのか。ピースウォーカー計画始動？そうなる事を願いたい。『平和は歩いては来ない』『お互い歩み寄るしかないのだ』 Gymにて。 ("President Obama, who talked about a "world without nuclear weapons" in Prague, has won the Nobel Peace Prize. Has history finally made its move? Could this be the beginning of the Peace Walker Project? I hope so. "Peace won't come to us." "We have to meet it halfway" At the gym."?)</ref> There's also a slight joke where the characters refer to Hideo Kojima as "god." Paz also at one point channels anti-Colonial sentiments regarding outside markets. There are also two missions, one having Snake (who is 39 years old at the time of the game) date as well as being strongly implied to have had sex with Paz (who at the time of the mission was believed to be sixteen years old), and the other being the aforementioned Miller mission.
**''Metal Gear Solid V'': Like with ''Peace Walker'', it depicts several anti-American references throughout both games. In the first part of the game, ''Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes'', it depicts a black site in Cuba that was all but stated to be Guantanamo Bay in what was clearly intended to be a condemnation towards its existence, including implying that the terrorists placed there had just been abducted in the dead of night and didn't actually do anything wrong. It also showcased some extremely brutal torture, including them forcing a kid to rape a girl, as well as stuffing a bomb down said girl's vagina. It also depicts the Marines in a very negative light. One of the side missions for the game also has the player infiltrating the base with the explicit mission of assassinating members of a Marine Sniper-Spotter team who had previously been deployed to Laos due to their being successful in killing several high-ranking members of the NVA and other Communist organizations in the region, with the person giving the mission being KGB, while another mission has the player sabotaging anti-air guns as well as doing a helicopter raid on the base. Kojima, in an interview with the Guardian, also makes it perfectly clear that up to that point, he intended for his games to question America's role in the world, and implied he wanted to show it in a negative light.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/jul/18/hideo-kojima-interview-metal-gear-solid-phantom-pain
"With Ground Zeroes he [Hideo Kojima] escalated the stakes by taking aim at North America’s contemporary policies towards terror suspects. “In the past the US was the centre of the world, where everything was happening,” he says. “I think my stories have always sought to question this, maybe even criticise it. But the situation is changing. America is not seen as the centre of the world any more. So the focus of my stories is shifting alongside with that change in the real world.”
"It’s a diplomatic answer, but Ground Zeroes is not an especially diplomatic video game. Its incarcerated terror suspects kneel in wire cages, bound at the hands and feet with blinding sacks over their heads. As you hoist them on to Snake’s shoulder and sprint to the evacuation helicopter, some break down in tears either through fear or relief. It’s grimly political. “[Guantanamo] was definitely something that I made decision to address in the game,” Kojima says. “Hollywood continues to present the US army as being the good guys, always defeating the aliens or foreigners. I am trying to shift that focus. These movies might not be the only way to view current affairs. I am trying to present an alternate view in these games.”"</ref> The ending for the main mission as well as one of the tapes has the character Skull Face, when describing Here's to You, falsely referring to [[Sacco and Vanzetti]] as having been innocent of the crimes they were executed for. In the second half, ''Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain'', there were several anti-American references, such as having a character named Code Talker refer negatively to the American Indian Boarding School as well as developing genocidal views on the English language and his being portrayed sympathetically for this, as well as Miller making a reference to the pejorative "American Empire." Ronald Reagan was also mentioned as well as his Evil Empire speech, with a more sarcastic element to it. In addition, although the protagonists do fight against the USSR, their missions in Africa have them aiding the Communist backed MPLA, and also make several anti-Colonial references such as Western Powers being "parasitic" towards their natural resources), with Kojima even admitting in concept art commentary that he deliberately made the Angola-Zaire border region look extremely polluted and gloomy to highlight this message.<ref>''Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain: The Official Guide: Collector's Edition'' by Piggyback Games, page 401. "Hideo Kojima: 'Some of the locations in Africa are evidently polluted and gloomy. This was a way to highlight how foreign (non-African) countries are parasitic on the resources available in Africa.'"</ref> Like before, it mentions the FSLN in a glowing manner, even explicitly founding a socialist state as well as being backed by the USSR. In addition, writer Kenji Yano also implied that Big Boss being Ishmael instead of Huey Emmerich was because they wanted to avoid a pro-American bias regarding morality.<ref>http://www.metalgearinformer.com/?p=25955 
Yano says that Kojima explained the structure of MGSV to him as early as 2011, and all the different elements were already in place: from the themes (such as phantom pain and retaliation) to the motif of Moby Dick. “However, at that point Ishmael was actually Huey. Snake was Ahab, and Diamond Dogs’ enemy was America. It was set up so that the story, being told by Huey (Ishmael) as an American citizen, would be biased toward the American perspective, showing America as being right the whole time.” According to Yano, the Moby Dick connection is also meant as an allegory for the powers that drive the world, as whales used to be more than just a source of food. “Of course their oil was prized, but also other parts such as the bones and baleen played an important role in people’s lifestyles. […] World maps are thought to have come about thanks to the whaling trade. In short, whaling was inseparable from people’s lives at the time. You could even say it had “infiltrated” their lives.” With MGSV, Kojima brought this theme to a new century: “What’s important is that Kojima-san didn’t just transplant the motif from Moby-Dick. I think it’s more a case of these two creators, Melville and Kojima, relentlessly thinking through the way that the world works, and arriving at the same answer.” This connects to the setting of the game: “if we look at the game from the energy perspective, it’s obvious that Afghanistan and Africa would be the settings for the events in MGSV. Each produces oil, and each is a source of rare metals and other mined resources.” Of course, both Moby Dick and MGSV share the theme of revenge. “As Skull Face stated in MGSV, the world is an endless loop of action and reaction. It’s always an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. […] Like Moby-Dick, MGSV is also a tale of revenge.” Why was Ishmael changed from Huey to Big Boss? Yano believes the answer to that lies in what Ahab represents: “Although Ahab has only his personal revenge, when the character is superimposed onto American righteousness, he serves as an analogy for how justification for revenge based on instinctive national memory is converted into a just cause.” He continues: “But in MGSV, it’s actually America that’s the overarching Moby Dick. Big Boss is Ahab in the sense that he’s been maimed by America in the past. Big Boss turns his yearning for revenge into bonds that bind him together with comrades who share his wish to retaliate against America (or its self-righteous justifications). However, from America’s point of view it’s Big Boss that’s Moby Dick. So what we can see in MGSV is actually an attempt to depict battle between Ahab and Ahab, or perhaps Moby Dick and Moby Dick.” This, according to Yano, explains why Kojima chose to switch the role of Ahab from Huey to Big Boss. “To be more precise, the aim is to reveal that the system the world runs on defines Big Boss’s existence as “evil.” That’s why MGSV tells you distinctly that Ahab is you, the player. It says, now you have to experience first-hand the absurdity of being branded a villain by the manipulating ways of the global status quo. […] For that message to be put across, it can’t be Huey telling it, since he’s on the American side. It has to be Big Boss himself that delivers the message.”</ref> In addition, there was an ending for disarming all nukes on a server that implied that all nukes had been gotten rid of, which also featured a quotation by Barack Obama as part of the credits.

===MachineGames===
* ''Wolfenstein II'': The game has a Nazi occupation in America, with the twitter promotion making an unsubtle attempt at connecting this plot point with the Donald Trump presidency and his electorate. Was also rather notorious for not only this element, but also further demonstration of [[fake news]] by the left-wing media including Newsweek promoting the same claim, as well as indirectly hinting at Russian collusion.<ref>https://pjmedia.com/lifestyle/fakenews-newsweek-writer-calls-innocent-people-nazis-for-criticizing-video-game-without-verifying/</ref>

===Multiple Parties===
*''Saints Row'' series: Glamorizes criminal street gangs. Much like the Grand Theft Auto series, the player character engages in many immoral and depraved acts. The second game is anti-capitalist (despite the Protagonist being a capitalist him/herself) with the depiction of the Ultor Corporation. (which was from developer Volition's other series Red Faction) The third game in the series attacks [[George W. Bush]] and the Iraq War with it's depiction of STAG. It also promotes the infamous liberal misconception about the "Mission Accomplished" Banner behind Bush when he delivered the speech from the USS Abraham Lincoln.<ref>https://youtu.be/MiYk8bxO7zQ?t=44</ref>

===Naughty Dog===
*''The Last of Us'' series: [[Social Justice Warrior]]-filled propaganda series masquerading as a survival horror series. Although the main version of the first game by itself was neutral, the game's DLC turned one of the main protagonists, Ellie, into a lesbian, after meeting a promiscuous bisexual woman named Dina. "Part II" based on leaks doubles down on the SJW elements: aside from exploring and treating Ellie's homosexuality in a positive light, the main antagonists, the Seraphites, are depicted as Christians who go out and slaughter "sinners", and are treated in a bad light, meaning it intended to push an anti-Christian agenda, and one of the women, Ellie's mother, is depicted as more masculine, hinting at gender confusion, and also hints at anti-male. Part 2 was ultimately given an indefinite delay, with the official reason being the outbreak of COVID-19, and issuing refunds to those who pre-ordered it.

===Radical Games===
* ''The Simpsons Road Rage'': Blatantly pushes an anti-nuclear energy agenda, as the premise of the game involves Mr. Burns buying the public transit system and producing nuclear-powered buses, with it clearly being treated in a negative light as the game expects the player to do a volunteer taxi service to buy back the public transit system from Mr. Burns, with the taxi service being ironically a lot MORE hazardous to people's health due to extremely reckless driving and traffic violations, which is actively encouraged. The game, when first unveiling the nuclear buses, also shows the character Hans Moleman emitting a green glow and then begging for someone to kill him while in obvious agony as well as the bus itself emitting a similar green glow when Mr. Burns declares it to be "cheaper, faster, and completely safe", carrying the obvious implication that Burns was lying, even though studies have shown that nuclear power is actually much safer for the environment overall when used right and a lot more cost effective. The game was also an explicit knock-off of ''Crazy Taxi'', to the extent that one of its claim to fame was being the subject of a lawsuit by Sega, the creators of ''Crazy Taxi'', against Fox Entertainment for the similarities.

===Rockstar Games===
* [[Grand Theft Auto]] series: This whole series promotes alcohol, drugs, tobacco, crime, pornography, and a bunch of other gobbledygook. [[Grand Theft Auto V]] was probably the worst as it did everything it could to demonize wealthy businessmen, FBI agents, country people, and lawyers. [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] was probably the second worst as it was pro-illegal immigration.
* Midnight Club series: Same basic premise as Grand Theft Auto, only you're playing as a street racer instead of a car thief.

===SNK===
[[File:Nintendo Viva La Revolucion.jpg|thumb|150px|Screen capture of the game ''Guerrilla War'' for the Nintendo Entertainment System]]
*''Guevara'' (Released in The United States as ''Guerrilla War'') was a game released in 1987 and later brought to the NES which glorifies the rise to power of Che and Castro.<ref>[https://codigoespagueti.com/noticias/che-guevara-fidel-castro-protagonizaron-videojuego/ Yes, Che Guevara and Fidel Castro starred in a video game]</ref> Both the Japanese and English versions proclaim "'''Hail the heros of the Revolution!'''" in the opening credit. The English version does not directly name the protagonists, and also had the game script and instruction manual rewritten to tone down the obvious pro-Communist sentiment, although it is nonetheless pretty clear from their physical appearances who they were supposed to represent.

===Top Heavy Studios===
*''The Guy Game'': Produced by the sexist, slimy Jeff Spangenberg (founder of Iguana Entertainment which later got bought by Nintendo and re-named Retro Studios. Spangenberg was fired by Nintendo after they discovered he was using company computers to host a porn site), this shameless game features various women flashing their bare chests as part of a trivia game. The game was later banned after it was discovered that one of the "contestants" was only 17 years old.

===Ubisoft===

Ubisoft claims to be a very diverse company. It seems they aren't very diverse politically as they have some of the most liberal games on market

*The Assassin's Creed franchise: Anti-Christian, as it claims that Jesus Christ was a fraud,<ref>http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Jesus_Christ</ref> with the villains of the series being the Knights Templar. The worst of the franchise is Syndicate, which has you killing capitalists in Victorian age London, working with the evolutionist [[Charles Darwin]] and [[communist]] [[Karl Marx]]. Ubisoft also had a transgender in the game, even though such a person was nonexistent back then. Only two games exist in the franchise that are in any way conservative: The third, which deals with the American Revolution and depicts the Founding Fathers in a positive light (although the DLC has them depicted negatively), and Assassin's Creed Unity, which depicted the French Revolution and its founders in a very negative light.

* Watch Dogs 2: While the first game is generally conservative (Pro-family, Anti-big government, Anti-crime), the sequel is one of the most liberal games to date. The main characters are anarchists, and the game has you fighting big corporations. You also have to work with many gays and transgenders. Also, in one mission the player must take down a church and expose it as fake. Even though the church in the game is meant to symbolize the cult of [[Scientology]],<ref>.http://www.mobilenapps.com/articles/20876/20161027/watch-dogs-2-scientology-tom-cruise-side-mission.htm</ref> there are various Anti-Christian undertones, such as a cross being depicted in an evil light with the words "False Prophets" being put under it. It is in this mission where you must also work with a gender-confused mayor, who is mad with the church for leaking videos of his mutilations onto the internet.

==Debatable whether liberal==
===Activision===
*Call of Duty 2: Like most entries in the franchise, it ultimately promotes American values and the military, as well as the British during World War II as well. However, at least one of the main campaigns depicts the Soviets in a positive manner due to it focusing on the Battle of Stalingrad.

===Bethesda Software===
*''The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim'': This addition to the fantasy game series ''The Elder Scrolls'' tells about the player being prophesized as a "Dragonborn" (a being with the body of a mortal and the soul of a dragon) to do battle with the dark dragon Alduin and delay the end of the world. In the midst of the crisis is an ongoing civil war between the rebel Stormcloaks led by Ulfric Stormcloak and the Imperial Legion. The game engages in a few liberal themes, including an option for same-sex marriage and a promotion of feminism (including high-ranking female "legates", the game's equivalent of a colonel, with the females given a more masculine design). However, it is also inspired by conservative novels such as ''Lord of the Rings'', ''Beowulf'', and ''The Chronicles of Narnia'' and has conservative messages just like them. Such messages include redemption and striving to do good when the great white dragon Paarthurnax is revealed to have once been Alduin's second-in-command but has since tamed his more savage nature to be at peace with the mysterious Greybeards and other humans, asking "What is better: to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" Both sides in the civil war have valid reasons for their actions: The Legion that is stationed in Skyrim wants a united empire to stand against the high elves, and the Stormcloaks want Skyrim to be more independent from the empire, similar to the colonists from the [[American Revolution]].
*''Fallout 4'': Part of the apocalyptic Fallout series, the player (a soldier for a male character, a lawyer for a female character) is cryogenically frozen, witnessing his/her infant son being kidnapped. They awaken two hundred years later in post-apocalyptic Boston, Massachusetts (called the Commonwealth) and embark on a journey to find their son, joined by new friends and various factions. The game does condemn nuclear weapons; even a companion named Deacon believes this about weapons of any kind: "Guns don't solve problems, they just create more". Players can even choose to be involved in a homosexual relationship with companions of the same sex, and a minor character and a Miss Nanny robot fall in love and marry. Like having the choice to do good, the player can also choose to do harmful things like murder or stealing, which other companions (like Courser X6-88 and super mutant Strong) will commend them for. The DLC called "Nuka World" (taking place in a soda-based amusement park) has the option of leading a violent band of raiders on a mission to subdue the Commonwealth; this, however, is also up to the player, who can wipe out the raiders instead. However, the game also portrays friendship and other virtues like courage well, as shown with the well-meaning but harsh Brotherhood of Steel. The Minutemen - initially led by Preston Garvey - are shown to be altruistic patriots, ready to defend other people and preserve freedom for the Commonwealth; they even have a motto saying "Freedom at a minute's notice". Family is also promoted in several ways: The player is searching for their son who is kidnapped as a baby, reporter Piper Wright and her sister Nat work together as a team in journalism, and MacCready wanders the Commonwealth in search of a cure for his sick son. The player even has the choices of doing good, like defending settlements from attack or giving money or supplies to the needy, and several companions (including Piper and synth detective Nick Valentine) will praise the player for their good choices.

===Capcom===
*''Resident Evil'' series: The games generally have a subtle anti-capitalist and anti-American agenda (with one of the protagonists in ''Resident Evil 3: Nemesis'', Carlos, being a communist rebel according to the game's Japanese version, and some versions of ''Resident Evil 5'' have a secret conversation between the game's protagonists, Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar, where the former denounces America due to it being capitalist.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VA-aH1K_zBU</ref>). However, it also has a condemnation against social Darwinism and eugenics, as most of the main villains in the franchise tended to promote some form of eugenics as well as social Darwinism as their motives. In addition, one of the protagonists, Barry Burton, was implied in the English localization to be a member of the [[National Rifle Association]], and the games also to some extent featured pro-family messaging, as Barry Burton was shown to be very loyal to his family, and the character Claire Redfield is depicted as being loyal to her brother Chris, spending Resident Evil 2 trying to find him and in Code Veronica refuses to allow Albert Wesker to harm him. The games also showcase government corruption in a scarily realistic and negative light in the form of Albert Wesker (who was a former police officer in the first Resident Evil) and Brian Irons (the police chief for the Raccoon City Police Department in Resident Evil 2). Resident Evil 4 also has a condemnation against pagan religions in the form of the Los Illuminados (which is Spanish for "The Enlightened Ones", and may subtly condemn the Illuminati), and the game ''Umbrella Chronicles'' has a possible negative depiction of Communism, or at the very least Soviet-style communism, as one of the main antagonists of that game, Sergei Vladimir, is depicted as an unrepentant former Soviet soldier who in one of the in-game files is strongly implied to have ultimately desired the restoration of the Soviet state.
*''Dead Rising 2'' and ''Dead Rising 2: Off the Record'': Although it has largely the same plotline as in the first ''Dead Rising'', it also to some extent is pro-family, due to the main character trying to save his daughter from infection. In addition, unlike the first or third main entries to the series, the hidden antagonist is not a military person, but instead a former rapper and TV executive who orchestrated the entire outbreak to boost ratings as well as steal wealth, acting as a subtle condemntation to [[Hollywood values]].

===Frontier Developments===
*''Jurassic World Evolution'': A spiritual sequel to ''Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis'' from 2001, this game takes the player across the Muerto Archipelago - a chain of tropical islands off the coast of Costa Rica - as they build dinosaur parks for the public. In a way, it promotes the pro-cloning message from the films ''The Lost World: Jurassic Park'' and ''Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'', though Ian Malcolm from the movies does warn the player about the consequences of creating dinosaurs. On the other hand, it also promotes capitalism, showing that the park cannot operate without money, requiring the player to build shops, complete contracts to earn rewards, and create fully-cloned dinosaurs to bring in more money and build up the parks. Three DLCS include "The Secrets of Dr. Wu", "Claire's Sanctuary", and "Return to Jurassic Park", as well as having different upgrades and new dinosaurs added with them. A sequel called ''Jurassic World Evolution 2'' was released in November 2021, taking place after the events of ''Fallen Kingdom'' and following the gameplay and values of the first.

===Konami===
*''Metal Gear Solid''/''Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes'': Although the first game does have condemnation towards Cloning and genetic engineering, and also has (albeit unintentionally) a pro-life/anti-abortion message due to Liquid Snake, when describing the process of the Les Enfants Terribles' creation, in particular its use of abortion to encourage fetal growth, explicitly labeling it as murder (although in that case, he attributed the act of murder more to himself and his brother Solid Snake, both byproducts of the project, than to the people actually responsible for the Super Baby Method), as well as promoting the concept of redemption to some extent, and also paints terrorism in an appropriately bad light, it at the same time is rife with anti-Americanism among both heroes and villains (although obviously not to the same extent as in later entries) as well as pushing an anti-nuclear and anti-war agenda, both of which seemed to focus more on America doing so than other countries, in particular Russia and China (specifically, the character Nastasha Romanenko, a member of NEST, spent most of her time condemning America for using nuclear weapons or even using nuclear power at all, and giving very little, if any criticism towards Russia and China for their having nukes, despite the fact that the event that caused her to hold a strong hatred for nukes, Chernobyl, having originated from within the Soviet bloc).

===Nintendo===
*''Metroid: Other M:'' Although largely part of the Metroid series and retaining some of its more conservative elements (namely, the promotion of parenthood and condemning the concept of playing god), the game was rather infamous for several criticisms it experienced in the game, namely the characterization of Adam Malkovich and his relationship with Samus due to it coming across more as promoting an abusive relationship (such as Adam shooting Samus in the back before sacrificing himself). The game, unlike in the Prime series, also depicts the military in a more negative manner, as a flashback had Samus being restrained from turning her back on Adam despite her intention being to save Ian, his brother, from death, as well as one of the more controversial elements of the game being the authorization element which at one point has Adam failing to actually authorize the Varia Suit to allow Samus to traverse through a superheated area despite it nearly killing her until a long while afterward, and also had as its main plot a conspiracy to weaponized Metroids at the order of the Federation military (as well as having someone within Samus's group attempt to assassinate each of the members in order to silence them to any potential discoveries to the conspiracy in question via the character The Deleter).

===Radical Games===
*''The Simpsons Hit and Run'': Although there are some liberal themes, such as Marge's crusade against Bonestorm-an implied violent video game-being depicted in a negative light, some characters engaging in lawlessness in a similar manner to ''Grand Theft Auto'', and one of the later chapters for the game having the main antagonists supply the townspeople with ray guns as well as tainted cola in a way that could be interpreted as supporting gun control, it also had several conservative messages, namely pro-family, as two of the chapters dealt with Lisa and Marge trying to find Bart after he went missing and trying to find out the cause behind his addled behavior, and later attempting to stop the production of Buzz Cola due to its effects on Bart, respectively, the first chapter and most of the game features a condemnation towards mass surveillance due to the presence of surveillance vans and wasp cameras and their being treated in a clear negative light, especially in a matter that isn't essential to stopping a threat, and is also anti-Hollywood values due to the main antagonists, aliens by the name of Kang and Kodos, deliberately trying to cause a ruckus in Springfield, including the aforementioned distribution of ray guns and tainted Buzz Cola to cause a shootout and later reanimating the dead via Buzz Cola, plus using the wasp cameras and surveillance vans all in an attempt to boost ratings of their reality show "Foolish Earthlings," which as the title implies deals with depicting various people of Earth, in particular Springfield, doing various stupid actions. Also has a rarity in the franchise where nuclear power is actually depicted in a positive light due to it ultimately being the only thing that stopped Kang and Kodos's alien invasion. There is also a humorous condemnation towards gun-free school zones, as during the same level that Bart has to stop the distribution of ray guns to the populace at Squidport, Principal Skinner explicitly references the no-gun policy among students at Springfield Elementary when confiscating Bart's ray gun, despite Bart making clear he only needed the gun to supply evidence towards an evil plot.

===Rockstar North===
*''Red Dead Redemption'': Set in 1911, a former outlaw named John Marston is tasked by a corrupt government official to hunt down his former gang members in exchange for getting his wife and son back. Like with the ''Grand Theft Auto'' series, the player can choose to do bad deeds like murder, stealing horses and money, and robbing people. There is even a hint of bestiality when a minor character marries his horse Lucy, though the main character is rightfully flabbergasted at the reveal that the man's lost love is a horse. However, the positives in the game outweigh the negative. ''Red Dead Redemption'' promotes the importance of family in the form of John trying to work hard to be with his family again, even trying to spend time with his son Jack and saving him from a [[brown bear]]; there is also traditional marriage being upheld, for John will refuse to sleep with prostitutes and remains faithful to his wife Abigail. It condemns government corruption through main villain Edgar Ross, who wants all of John's former gang destroyed to get all the glory for it, to the point where he has his army kill John in spite of promising to leave the latter alone once his job is done. It also promotes doing good like donating to a nunnery, helping people (whether rescuing people from gangs or wild animals to just fetching items for them), and doing jobs for them.
*''Red Dead Redemption 2'': Set 12 years before the events of Red Dead Redemption, this game explores how the Dutch Van Der Linde gang had fallen from their prime in the point-of-view of one of Dutch's righthand men: Arthur Morgan. During the course of the game, the gang changes much and even leads Arthur to start questioning Dutch's increasingly reckless decisions. Like with the ''Grand Theft Auto'' series, the player can choose to do bad deeds like murder, stealing horses and money, and robbing people, and the main character (no matter how high their honor may be) will be a part of a notorious gang of robbers and bandits. Dutch himself is portrayed as an early communist, believing in redistributing wealth as they steal from the rich and give to the poor, based on the Jacobin version of [[Robin Hood]] as portrayed by Joseph Ritson. Feminism is also promoted in a way by the character of the widow Sadie Adler, who insists of doing more work than helping with cooking; it's further shown when she later fights off and kills three men at once on her own in spite of a physical disadvantage. Like the first game, however, there are a lot more positives. As the title suggests, it promotes redemption in the form of main protagonist Arthur Morgan helping John Marston and his family escape the collapsing gang at the cost of his own life (whether from succumbing to tuberculosis or being murdered by main antagonist Micah Bell, which depends on whether the player has high or low honor). [[Hunting]] is portrayed positively while poaching is negatively shown, for half black/half [[Native American]] Charles Smith is angered at the sight of poachers leaving intact [[bison]] carcasses to rot. The game also shows doing good deeds, heroism, and family (whether it be with the Marston family or most of the Dutch Van Der Linde gang) in a positive light.
*''The Bully'': A delinquent named Jimmy Hopkins is sent to a primary school to correct his behavior. There, he learns the hierarchy of the school cliques and rises up the ranks. Jimmy is shown as a jerk who gets involved in fights with bullies and high school cliques. The game has also been criticized by conservatives because it is possible for the player to engage the protagonist in homosexual relationships.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.neoseeker.com/news/6237-bully-under-spotlight-for-homosexual-content/|title=Bully Under Spotlight For "Homosexual" Content|author=Leo Chan|date=2006-10-24|accessdate=2019-03-08|work=Neoseeker|publisher=Neo Era Media, Inc.}}</ref> In spite of all that, though, the game does show the dangers of high school cliques as well as bullies, and Jimmy can choose to stand up to bullies and help the other kids in school.

===Square-Enix===
*''Final Fantasy II:'' In initial releases for the game, the game had an undeniably pro-Christian element to the games, and also condemned Satanic worshippers and totalitarianism in the form of the game's main villain Emperor Mateus Palamecia, who explicitly goes to Hell when he dies and tries to take over the world with the powers he gained from Hell. However, the remakes starting with the GBA version added in a new mode called "Dawn of Souls" which has the killed party members fighting against the Emperor's light half who took over Heaven, which could be interpreted as an anti-Christian message.
*''Final Fantasy VI:'' Promotes parenthood due to Terra Branford becoming a mother figure for the Mobliz orphans late into the game, which also had her learning the concept of love, and also showcases the horrors of totalitarian ideologies in the form of the Gestahlian Empire, and also offers a condemnation of [[nihilism]] in the form of the game's main antagonist Kefka Palazzo (who is depicted in a similar manner to [[Joker (comics)|the Joker]] from the Batman franchise). However, Terra also makes a more relativistic remark when trying to refute Kefka regarding finding meanings in things.
*''Final Fantasy VII:'' Promotes the concept of redemption and condemns unethical science in the form of Professor Hojo, but on the other hand, it also has a more anti-Capitalist view on things with Shin-Ra, the main antagonists, being a corporation, and is hinted to promote environmentalism due to the main protagonists being eco-terrorists. The whole game nature is very homoerotic, and one of the game missions involves cross-dressing. Moreover, the main character of the game, Cloud is hugely popular with corrupt liberal game journalists as a symbol of the "toxic masculinity" deconstruction.

===Ubisoft===
*Assassins Creed 3: The Assassins help the American Revolution by killing the Templar leaders of the British. However, a DLC came out for the game that has you kill all of the [[Founding Fathers]].

* Far Cry 5: The main villains of the game are inaccurately portrayed as Christians, while the previous game villains were more politically neutral (they include a psychotic pirate and an atheistic dictator). However, Jerome Jeffries, one of the characters who aids the player, is a Christian pastor. Richard "Dutch" Roosevelt, another supporting character, has a distrust for government. The game also occasionally pokes fun at liberals and paints the 2nd-amendment in a positive light.

===Indie/Small Developers===

• Undertale: On one hand, it teaches the importance of core Christian values such as mercy and compassion by discouraging killing characters, and instead solving conflicts non-violently. On the other hand, it involves homosexual and bisexual relationships, some of which may involve the player character (who is 12 years of age and androgynous) depending on what dialogue choices the player makes.

Essay:Worst Liberal Video Games

2025-01-19T22:41:09Z

Shobson20: /* Definitely liberal */

The [[video game industry]] is a very [[liberal]] market, which is why many [[conservative]] organizations, [[church]]es, and [[Christianity|Christian]] educational institutions criticize video games. Here are some of the worst examples of liberalism in video games by developer:

==Definitely liberal==
===Acclaim Entertainment===
*''BMX XXX'': A "sports game" that included pornographic elements as well as more foul language and adult humor, presumably in an attempt to salvage the game by turning it into a raunchy sex comedy-style game. The game was rather infamous for the controversy that ensued for the company, namely that they falsely put real life BMX athlete [[Dave Mirra]]'s name on the title that indicated that he supported it when he specifically requested that his name not be attached to it, as well as various retailers giving extremely negative reviews due to its content, leading to poor sales and ultimately to Acclaim's bankruptcy.

===Blizzard Entertainment===
*''Overwatch'': Multiplayer shooter game that caters to SJWs and Cultural Marxists by needlessly making a popular character a lesbian, as well as adding in a muscular lesbian when leftists were offended by the game. The story of the game also subtly condemns private business while promoting the left-wing United Nations. In addition, it recently came under fire when Soldier 76, the closest the game had to a conservative character, was turned homosexual for absolutely no reason.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2019/01/overwatch-turns-the-last-normal-character-gay/74757/</ref>

===Capcom===
*''Dead Rising'' series: The series deals with a bioterror attack at various places resulting in the creation of zombies, as well as fighting against psychopaths who were either driven mad from tragic circumstances relating to the event, or otherwise used the event as an excuse for committing terrorist acts. The terrorists directly responsible for the events in question are generally depicted in a sympathetic manner, while the hidden villains, with the exception of ''Dead Rising 2'', are usually military personnel, with the latter not being depicted in a sympathetic manner. The background of the first game regarding the Santa Cabenza operation also indicated that the Zombrex formula was initially created in an attempt to boost beef production, which may be a subtle condemnation of [[capitalism]].
*''Killer7:'' Aside from portraying assassinations in a positive light, the game also has implicit anti-American views in the plot due to commentary provided in the ''Hand in Killer7'' handbook by the game's creator.<ref>''Hand in Killer7'', "Since the foundation of the United States of America, many organizations and political parties struggled for power. Although history recognizes the United States of America's government as a democratic republic, it is rumored that a shadow government really runs the country."</ref>
*''DmC: Devil May Cry''*: The game's themes are anti-capitalist and the game even has a parody of Bill O'Reilly in the form of the character Bob Barbas, along with Raptor News Network parodying media like Fox News. The game also contains excessive swearing, juvenile humor, hookers and an overall bad story with accompanying terribly written dialogue. The producer of the game said that the game intended to poke fun at modern issues that are "depressingly familiar". This game is also an insult to a beloved series which isn't political in the first place and actually has good stories with christian themes.
===Destructive Studios===
*''Hatred'': The game's entire premise dealt with playing as a psychopathic and misanthropic spree killer trying to kill as many people as possible, and culminates in engineering a nuclear meltdown. Pro-terrorism, as well, with hints at a massively nihilistic outlook. There's also evidence that it plagiarized the ''Postal'' series of games in terms of overall plot and gameplay. Was also notorious for managing to be sold largely because of its controversy and other than that was not popular at all due to it encouraging killing for no justifications whatsoever.

===Electronic Arts===
Electronic Arts is a game producer based in California. Some of the games they produce are okay, but others are quite liberal. Electronic Arts is now the parent company of Maxis, which was created by an [[atheist]].
*Spore: The game revolves around the concept of [[Evolution]].

===HudsonSoft===
* ''Cho Aniki'' series: Blatantly of the LGBT agenda.

===Illusion Softworks===
* Mafia series: Glorifies every aspect of the Italian mafia, with the third Mafia game promoting the radical Black Panthers, and featuring a minor lesbian protagonist.

===Insomniac===
* ''Spider-Man'': Despite Spider-Man aiding the police and stopping crimes (which ironically got the game condemned by the leftist media as promoting [[authoritarian]] [[police state]]s), the game pushed several anti-Trump messages via the characters Kingpin and Norman Osborne, with the former having Mary Jane Watson quipping that he plans to "Make New York Great Again" in an obvious attempt at connecting him to Trump's Make America Great Again slogan. There's also a feminist agenda being pushed with the characters Mary Jane, Silver Sable and to a lesser degree Black Cat.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2018/09/editorial-insomniacs-spider-man-is-political-but-the-media-was-too-dumb-to-see-it/69744/</ref>

===Konami===
Konami has supported then-FLOTUS [[Michelle Obama]]'s Let's Move [[exercise]] program in 2013 during E3. In addition, they also tend to have very liberal games on market such as:

* The ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' series by Hideo Kojima blatantly pushes anti-Americanism, post-modernism, nihilism, and also hints at anarchism being preferable to law and order. It also has some praise for May 1968, and Peace Walker infamously has most of the cast hero-worshipping ''[[Che Guevara]]''. Kojima was also shown to be a big Obama supporter, especially in regards to the latter wanting to get rid of nuclear weapons. There was also an anti-Colonial settlement in several of the games, and has also promoted LGBT politics in the form of Dr. Strangelove. Notable examples include:
** ''Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty'' is notorious for being the first [[Postmodernism|postmodern]] game in the history of gaming. It also is extremely anti-American, with Hideo Kojima in his Grand Game Plan for the game even explicitly stating that America as a culture was meant to represent the biggest evil in the game, with the same source implying that Solid Snake, one of the few characters who was on the good spectrum, acted as a spy for Communist China.<ref>Metal Gear Solid 2: Grand Game Plan (http://www.gamepitches.com/2012/01/kojima-productions-metal-gear-solid-2-sons-of-liberty-design-document/), page 36-37.
;Absolute evil in MGS2

Evil in Hollywood films has always changed depending on the time in which the film’s story takes place. In the American market, where audiences like to see good triumph over evil, the absolute enemy – be it a race, country or setting – has always changed with the values of the times. MGS2 will be developed with mainly the American market in mind, though it will also consider countries in the European market, such as Germany, France, Britain and Italy. Therefore, the particulars of its ‘evil’ must be handled carefully. It should be noted that we face no such problem with Japan. 

Westerns -> Native Americans 

Post-WWII war films -> Germany, Japan 

Cold War-era spy films -> Russia 

Post-Cold War films -> China 

Following the signing of the friendship treaty between the US and China -> Japanese businesses(the collapse of the bubble economy) 

1990s -> Terrorism 

;MGS2’s evil
The evil in MGS2 is the American government. However, this does not refer to Americans in general, nor to any particular persons, but to the festering discharge that has built-up within the democratic state of America over the years. The intention is not to defame any race, state or ethnicity, but rather to look at the ‘monster’ that the country’s political structure has created. It is an intangible entity yet at the same time a massive menace to the world, about on the same level as the evil in The X-Files. It could be called a throwback to the somewhat classic type of evil. It is this hidden hand of the American government, the Patriots, that has both created madmen like Solidus and the members of Dead Cell and has also used them for its own ends. 

;Absolute evil

The Patriots -> the shadowy organization that controls the American government 

People used by them:

Solidus -> current President of the United States of America 

Colonel Gurlukovich -> a Russian who wishes to see his country rebuilt 

People they must be careful of: 

Vamp -> ex-Stasi 

Old Boy -> former Nazi army colonel 

Snake -> a spy for China?</ref> The same source also implies that it intended to push a feminist agenda.<ref>http://www.gamepitches.com/2012/01/kojima-productions-metal-gear-solid-2-sons-of-liberty-design-document/

"'''Story''' 
Having an iconic female character (Fortune), like in the previous game, as well as an ordinary woman involved with the main character, will add both a realistic and romantic element to the game. 
‘The 21st century will be the age of women, when women will protect men’"</ref> Both main villains, who espoused American values (to the extent that they were even named Sons of Liberty and Patriots) and were fighting each other, were shown or heavily implied to be complicit in terrorist acts, and several of the characters, both good and bad, were shown to do very amoral things, including constantly betraying each other. Solid Snake in the ending later gave a message on how there was never such a thing as "[[absolute reality]]" and how "reality" was just "cleverly disguised fiction", meaning he was essentially pushing nihilism. The game also briefly implies that Solid Snake had conducted terrorist attacks while in Philanthropy, with it overall being glossed over. In addition, some of the main villains, the Gurlukovich Mercenaries, who were strongly implied to be Communists, were depicted in a more sympathetic light compared to the other villains. Ironically, the game ended up being released around the time of the September 11 attacks. Kojima, in an interview dated back in 1999, implied that the game was meant to push the exact same themes as ''The Matrix'' by [[the Wachowski Brothers]] (as they were known at the time, and who were personal friends of him), including the concept of how reality was an illusion.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20130328062143/http://www.gamespot.com/news/hideo-kojima-speaks-about-the-matrix-2448486</ref>
** ''Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots'' has the player aiding implied Muslim terrorists and Communist insurgents in the first two acts. In addition, there was a brief promotion of the crackpot Global Warming ideology at the beginning of Act 4. It also depicts the main antagonist Liquid Ocelot's desire for the destruction of the Patriots and the creation of pure anarchy in a positive light nearing the end. It also juxtapositions the United States and the Soviet Union symbolism during Big Mama's speech, implying that they were little different from each other. It also glosses over the complications posed by Sunny "keeping the brain cell intact" (in particular, Drebin 893, a gun launderer, implies both that the resulting Patriot shutdown will result in a massive boom for his business, and also that the UN would end up taking over the entire planet after the events of the shutdown of the War Economy and the Patriots resulted in multiple countries going broke and being in significant enough debt that even PMC regulation laws wouldn't come close to closing it off, as well as America being affected to the degree that it has to give up on unilateralism, and also briefly implying that the UN will likely come the closest towards a successor group to the Patriots and that the cycle will continue, with the story treating it as drunken ramblings.), and also heavily implies a more unrealistic view of government control similar to more left-wing views on how things work when all the characters are acting as though if Liquid Ocelot either took control of the Patriots directly or otherwise just wiped them out altogether, the key essentials to human civilization - water, air, electricity, food, medicine, communication and transportation - would be negatively affected to catastrophic levels, many times forgetting that most if not all of those would either not have been impacted at all by the Patriots shutdown (due to existing well before the Patriots or the Philosophers before them were even an idea) or otherwise being a minor inconvenience at worst. Was also notable as being the first entry to the series to have a character (Laughing Octopus) drop the f-bomb in dialogue in the English release (in ''Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater'', the character EVA also dropped the f-bomb in English to Colonel Volgin in the Japanese version, but this was toned down overseas to "Go to hell!"). And while the game does have a subtle condemnation to [[gun control]] in the form of the Sons of the Patriots system, at the same time, it also seems to promote people killing each other for the sheer sake of it as evidenced by Liquid Ocelot's comments before his death, and also implies that to some extent, the gun control implanted by Liquid Ocelot when he took over the SOP system ended all conflict and treated that as a silver lining. While not in the game itself, the teaser site for the game and other games being made by Kojima Productions during that time, released during E3 2006 had an overall background theme that invoked left-wing revolutions and riots, even saying as their tagline "Kojima Productions' next revolt" including spraypainting and fists being raised with yells.<ref>http://www.konami.jp/kojima_pro/e3_2006/</ref>
** ''Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker'' was very left-wing in its outlook, even by ''Metal Gear'' series standards. One of the more infamous aspects of the game had the various main characters, including the co-protagonists Big Boss and Kazuhira Miller, giving a very fawning account on the Marxist terrorist Che Guevara, completely ignoring his role in nearly causing the Cuban Missile Crisis to become a full on nuclear war despite two of the main villains doing exactly that, not to mention Big Boss trying to put a stop to two attempts at launching a nuke twice, one at Cuba and another at America. In the case of Big Boss and Miller, it also conflicts completely with their histories, which had them, respectively, feeling guilt for killing The Boss (as well as implying at one point that the Cuban Missile Crisis was ultimately responsible for the aforementioned action) and growing up in Japan during that time with the adults explicitly panicking respectively. Later twitter posts supplied by his secretary depicted pictures of Kojima blatantly posing near a framed portrait of Che Guevara's infamous portrait as well as him carrying a Che Guevara tote bag, which implied the pro-Che Guevara narrative in the game was due to Hideo Kojima projecting his views into the game at the expense of the story.<ref>https://twitter.com/Kaizerkunkun/status/900937994143649792</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/Kaizerkunkun/status/1190763430497542144</ref> Aside from Che, Miller and Big Boss also proceeded to briefly mention Mao Zedong once via his book ''On Protracted War'' while implying they similarly held him in high regard as well. The various characters also gave very anti-American views, including condemning the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, the firebombing of Tokyo, the post-war period of Japan, and also repeating the usual condemnations towards American involvement in South and Central America, many times completely ignoring or at most glossing over Soviet involvement in the region as well. One character, a French woman named Cecile Cosima Caminades, also was implied to be very sexually loose, and also gives a glowing account of the horrendous events of the [[May 1968 riots]] in France (including falsely implying that the vast majority of Paris and even France as a whole had participated in or at least were influenced by the events of May 1968, despite it, similar to the Hippie movement, actually only being a minority rabble of Trotskyite and Maoist groups trying to impose their will on society, and that it actually ruined France rather than the game's implication that it actually turned out for the better unlike the Hippie movement or similar movements in Japan.) and also was a fangirl of notorious Existentialist philosopher Jean Paul Sartre (her fangirlism to him was made more explicit in the Japanese version, where she actually squeals in excitement when Big Boss mentions that he was the same guy who infamously referred to Che Guevara as "the most complete man of the century."). It also has some implied LGBT agenda pushing in the form of Dr. Strangelove, who is strongly implied to be a lesbian, as well as one mission featuring Big Boss and Miller entering a date and being implied to have engaged in homosexual sex upon the completion. The CIA was also depicted in a very negative light, being the main antagonistic force in the game, and the initial main villain Hot Coldman, a station chief in Central America and an implied former Director for the CIA, was depicted as a madman. It also paints the FSLN in a sympathetic light and, in a clear breach with real-life history, depicts them actually revolting against the KGB late in the game, as well as largely glossing over their crimes (in an even more egregrious note, the Sandinista Comandante Amanda was implied in dialogue to be a Christian despite the fact that the FSLN, being a Communist organization, was explicitly Atheistic in its outlook). When covering the game at Tokyo Game Show 2009, Hideo Kojima heavily implied that deterrence was bad, as was holding any form of military at all,<ref>https://www.gamespot.com/articles/kojima-talks-peace-walker/1100-6230488/ "There's the philosophy of nuclear deterrence," Kojima continued. "America and Russia just kept piling up on their nuclear weapons. And when you have an army, it deters enemies from invading. That's yet another theory of deterrence. Why can't we get rid of nuclear arms and soldiers from the world? I'm sure that everyone's thought about it. And then there's the reality, which I hope players will think about as they're playing Peace Walker. Back then, it was a time when these theories were actually thought to be effective. And now, we're paying the price. We've still got tons of nuclear weapons scattered all over the world."</ref> which is further supported by the game frequently quoting Enlightenment philosopher and leftist [[Immanuel Kant]] and his tract ''On Perpetual Peace'', one of the quotes, given in the first ending, being from Chapter 1 of the treatise where he explicitly calls for the total abolishment of any and all armies. In addition, it also had Kojima during development reporting glowingly on Barack Obama's Prague Speech on a World without Nukes.<ref>http://ameblo.jp/kp-blogcast/entry-10361111977.html 『核なき世界』をプラハで宣言したオバマ大統領がノーベル平和賞を受賞した。ようやく時代が動き出したのか。ピースウォーカー計画始動？そうなる事を願いたい。『平和は歩いては来ない』『お互い歩み寄るしかないのだ』 Gymにて。 ("President Obama, who talked about a "world without nuclear weapons" in Prague, has won the Nobel Peace Prize. Has history finally made its move? Could this be the beginning of the Peace Walker Project? I hope so. "Peace won't come to us." "We have to meet it halfway" At the gym."?)</ref> There's also a slight joke where the characters refer to Hideo Kojima as "god." Paz also at one point channels anti-Colonial sentiments regarding outside markets. There are also two missions, one having Snake (who is 39 years old at the time of the game) date as well as being strongly implied to have had sex with Paz (who at the time of the mission was believed to be sixteen years old), and the other being the aforementioned Miller mission.
**''Metal Gear Solid V'': Like with ''Peace Walker'', it depicts several anti-American references throughout both games. In the first part of the game, ''Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes'', it depicts a black site in Cuba that was all but stated to be Guantanamo Bay in what was clearly intended to be a condemnation towards its existence, including implying that the terrorists placed there had just been abducted in the dead of night and didn't actually do anything wrong. It also showcased some extremely brutal torture, including them forcing a kid to rape a girl, as well as stuffing a bomb down said girl's vagina. It also depicts the Marines in a very negative light. One of the side missions for the game also has the player infiltrating the base with the explicit mission of assassinating members of a Marine Sniper-Spotter team who had previously been deployed to Laos due to their being successful in killing several high-ranking members of the NVA and other Communist organizations in the region, with the person giving the mission being KGB, while another mission has the player sabotaging anti-air guns as well as doing a helicopter raid on the base. Kojima, in an interview with the Guardian, also makes it perfectly clear that up to that point, he intended for his games to question America's role in the world, and implied he wanted to show it in a negative light.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/jul/18/hideo-kojima-interview-metal-gear-solid-phantom-pain
"With Ground Zeroes he [Hideo Kojima] escalated the stakes by taking aim at North America’s contemporary policies towards terror suspects. “In the past the US was the centre of the world, where everything was happening,” he says. “I think my stories have always sought to question this, maybe even criticise it. But the situation is changing. America is not seen as the centre of the world any more. So the focus of my stories is shifting alongside with that change in the real world.”
"It’s a diplomatic answer, but Ground Zeroes is not an especially diplomatic video game. Its incarcerated terror suspects kneel in wire cages, bound at the hands and feet with blinding sacks over their heads. As you hoist them on to Snake’s shoulder and sprint to the evacuation helicopter, some break down in tears either through fear or relief. It’s grimly political. “[Guantanamo] was definitely something that I made decision to address in the game,” Kojima says. “Hollywood continues to present the US army as being the good guys, always defeating the aliens or foreigners. I am trying to shift that focus. These movies might not be the only way to view current affairs. I am trying to present an alternate view in these games.”"</ref> The ending for the main mission as well as one of the tapes has the character Skull Face, when describing Here's to You, falsely referring to [[Sacco and Vanzetti]] as having been innocent of the crimes they were executed for. In the second half, ''Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain'', there were several anti-American references, such as having a character named Code Talker refer negatively to the American Indian Boarding School as well as developing genocidal views on the English language and his being portrayed sympathetically for this, as well as Miller making a reference to the pejorative "American Empire." Ronald Reagan was also mentioned as well as his Evil Empire speech, with a more sarcastic element to it. In addition, although the protagonists do fight against the USSR, their missions in Africa have them aiding the Communist backed MPLA, and also make several anti-Colonial references such as Western Powers being "parasitic" towards their natural resources), with Kojima even admitting in concept art commentary that he deliberately made the Angola-Zaire border region look extremely polluted and gloomy to highlight this message.<ref>''Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain: The Official Guide: Collector's Edition'' by Piggyback Games, page 401. "Hideo Kojima: 'Some of the locations in Africa are evidently polluted and gloomy. This was a way to highlight how foreign (non-African) countries are parasitic on the resources available in Africa.'"</ref> Like before, it mentions the FSLN in a glowing manner, even explicitly founding a socialist state as well as being backed by the USSR. In addition, writer Kenji Yano also implied that Big Boss being Ishmael instead of Huey Emmerich was because they wanted to avoid a pro-American bias regarding morality.<ref>http://www.metalgearinformer.com/?p=25955 
Yano says that Kojima explained the structure of MGSV to him as early as 2011, and all the different elements were already in place: from the themes (such as phantom pain and retaliation) to the motif of Moby Dick. “However, at that point Ishmael was actually Huey. Snake was Ahab, and Diamond Dogs’ enemy was America. It was set up so that the story, being told by Huey (Ishmael) as an American citizen, would be biased toward the American perspective, showing America as being right the whole time.” According to Yano, the Moby Dick connection is also meant as an allegory for the powers that drive the world, as whales used to be more than just a source of food. “Of course their oil was prized, but also other parts such as the bones and baleen played an important role in people’s lifestyles. […] World maps are thought to have come about thanks to the whaling trade. In short, whaling was inseparable from people’s lives at the time. You could even say it had “infiltrated” their lives.” With MGSV, Kojima brought this theme to a new century: “What’s important is that Kojima-san didn’t just transplant the motif from Moby-Dick. I think it’s more a case of these two creators, Melville and Kojima, relentlessly thinking through the way that the world works, and arriving at the same answer.” This connects to the setting of the game: “if we look at the game from the energy perspective, it’s obvious that Afghanistan and Africa would be the settings for the events in MGSV. Each produces oil, and each is a source of rare metals and other mined resources.” Of course, both Moby Dick and MGSV share the theme of revenge. “As Skull Face stated in MGSV, the world is an endless loop of action and reaction. It’s always an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. […] Like Moby-Dick, MGSV is also a tale of revenge.” Why was Ishmael changed from Huey to Big Boss? Yano believes the answer to that lies in what Ahab represents: “Although Ahab has only his personal revenge, when the character is superimposed onto American righteousness, he serves as an analogy for how justification for revenge based on instinctive national memory is converted into a just cause.” He continues: “But in MGSV, it’s actually America that’s the overarching Moby Dick. Big Boss is Ahab in the sense that he’s been maimed by America in the past. Big Boss turns his yearning for revenge into bonds that bind him together with comrades who share his wish to retaliate against America (or its self-righteous justifications). However, from America’s point of view it’s Big Boss that’s Moby Dick. So what we can see in MGSV is actually an attempt to depict battle between Ahab and Ahab, or perhaps Moby Dick and Moby Dick.” This, according to Yano, explains why Kojima chose to switch the role of Ahab from Huey to Big Boss. “To be more precise, the aim is to reveal that the system the world runs on defines Big Boss’s existence as “evil.” That’s why MGSV tells you distinctly that Ahab is you, the player. It says, now you have to experience first-hand the absurdity of being branded a villain by the manipulating ways of the global status quo. […] For that message to be put across, it can’t be Huey telling it, since he’s on the American side. It has to be Big Boss himself that delivers the message.”</ref> In addition, there was an ending for disarming all nukes on a server that implied that all nukes had been gotten rid of, which also featured a quotation by Barack Obama as part of the credits.

===MachineGames===
* ''Wolfenstein II'': The game has a Nazi occupation in America, with the twitter promotion making an unsubtle attempt at connecting this plot point with the Donald Trump presidency and his electorate. Was also rather notorious for not only this element, but also further demonstration of [[fake news]] by the left-wing media including Newsweek promoting the same claim, as well as indirectly hinting at Russian collusion.<ref>https://pjmedia.com/lifestyle/fakenews-newsweek-writer-calls-innocent-people-nazis-for-criticizing-video-game-without-verifying/</ref>

===Multiple Parties===
*''Saints Row'' series: Glamorizes criminal street gangs. Much like the Grand Theft Auto series, the player character engages in many immoral and depraved acts. The second game is anti-capitalist (despite the Protagonist being a capitalist him/herself) with the depiction of the Ultor Corporation. (which was from developer Volition's other series Red Faction) The third game in the series attacks [[George W. Bush]] and the Iraq War with it's depiction of STAG. It also promotes the infamous liberal misconception about the "Mission Accomplished" Banner behind Bush when he delivered the speech from the USS Abraham Lincoln.<ref>https://youtu.be/MiYk8bxO7zQ?t=44</ref>

===Naughty Dog===
*''The Last of Us'' series: [[Social Justice Warrior]]-filled propaganda series masquerading as a survival horror series. Although the main version of the first game by itself was neutral, the game's DLC turned one of the main protagonists, Ellie, into a lesbian, after meeting a promiscuous bisexual woman named Dina. "Part II" based on leaks doubles down on the SJW elements: aside from exploring and treating Ellie's homosexuality in a positive light, the main antagonists, the Seraphites, are depicted as Christians who go out and slaughter "sinners", and are treated in a bad light, meaning it intended to push an anti-Christian agenda, and one of the women, Ellie's mother, is depicted as more masculine, hinting at gender confusion, and also hints at anti-male. Part 2 was ultimately given an indefinite delay, with the official reason being the outbreak of COVID-19, and issuing refunds to those who pre-ordered it.

===Radical Games===
* ''The Simpsons Road Rage'': Blatantly pushes an anti-nuclear energy agenda, as the premise of the game involves Mr. Burns buying the public transit system and producing nuclear-powered buses, with it clearly being treated in a negative light as the game expects the player to do a volunteer taxi service to buy back the public transit system from Mr. Burns, with the taxi service being ironically a lot MORE hazardous to people's health due to extremely reckless driving and traffic violations, which is actively encouraged. The game, when first unveiling the nuclear buses, also shows the character Hans Moleman emitting a green glow and then begging for someone to kill him while in obvious agony as well as the bus itself emitting a similar green glow when Mr. Burns declares it to be "cheaper, faster, and completely safe", carrying the obvious implication that Burns was lying, even though studies have shown that nuclear power is actually much safer for the environment overall when used right and a lot more cost effective. The game was also an explicit knock-off of ''Crazy Taxi'', to the extent that one of its claim to fame was being the subject of a lawsuit by Sega, the creators of ''Crazy Taxi'', against Fox Entertainment for the similarities.

===Rockstar Games===
* [[Grand Theft Auto]] series: This whole series promotes alcohol, drugs, tobacco, crime, pornography, and a bunch of other gobbledygook. [[Grand Theft Auto V]] was probably the worst as it did everything it could to demonize wealthy businessmen, FBI agents, country people, and lawyers. [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] was probably the second worst as it was pro-illegal immigration.
* Midnight Club series: Same basic premise as Grand Theft Auto, only you're playing as a street racer instead of a car thief.

===SNK===
[[File:Nintendo Viva La Revolucion.jpg|thumb|150px|Screen capture of the game ''Guerrilla War'' for the Nintendo Entertainment System]]
*''Guevara'' (Released in The United States as ''Guerrilla War'') was a game released in 1987 and later brought to the NES which glorifies the rise to power of Che and Castro.<ref>[https://codigoespagueti.com/noticias/che-guevara-fidel-castro-protagonizaron-videojuego/ Yes, Che Guevara and Fidel Castro starred in a video game]</ref> Both the Japanese and English versions proclaim "'''Hail the heros of the Revolution!'''" in the opening credit. The English version does not directly name the protagonists, and also had the game script and instruction manual rewritten to tone down the obvious pro-Communist sentiment, although it is nonetheless pretty clear from their physical appearances who they were supposed to represent.

===Top Heavy Studios===
*''The Guy Game'': Produced by the sexist, slimy Jeff Spangenberg (founder of Iguana Entertainment which later got bought by Nintendo and re-named Retro Studios. Spangenberg was fired by Nintendo after his lewdness was discovered), this shameless game features various women flashing their bare chests as part of a trivia game. The game was later banned after it was discovered that one of the "contestants" was only 17 years old.

===Ubisoft===

Ubisoft claims to be a very diverse company. It seems they aren't very diverse politically as they have some of the most liberal games on market

*The Assassin's Creed franchise: Anti-Christian, as it claims that Jesus Christ was a fraud,<ref>http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Jesus_Christ</ref> with the villains of the series being the Knights Templar. The worst of the franchise is Syndicate, which has you killing capitalists in Victorian age London, working with the evolutionist [[Charles Darwin]] and [[communist]] [[Karl Marx]]. Ubisoft also had a transgender in the game, even though such a person was nonexistent back then. Only two games exist in the franchise that are in any way conservative: The third, which deals with the American Revolution and depicts the Founding Fathers in a positive light (although the DLC has them depicted negatively), and Assassin's Creed Unity, which depicted the French Revolution and its founders in a very negative light.

* Watch Dogs 2: While the first game is generally conservative (Pro-family, Anti-big government, Anti-crime), the sequel is one of the most liberal games to date. The main characters are anarchists, and the game has you fighting big corporations. You also have to work with many gays and transgenders. Also, in one mission the player must take down a church and expose it as fake. Even though the church in the game is meant to symbolize the cult of [[Scientology]],<ref>.http://www.mobilenapps.com/articles/20876/20161027/watch-dogs-2-scientology-tom-cruise-side-mission.htm</ref> there are various Anti-Christian undertones, such as a cross being depicted in an evil light with the words "False Prophets" being put under it. It is in this mission where you must also work with a gender-confused mayor, who is mad with the church for leaking videos of his mutilations onto the internet.

==Debatable whether liberal==
===Activision===
*Call of Duty 2: Like most entries in the franchise, it ultimately promotes American values and the military, as well as the British during World War II as well. However, at least one of the main campaigns depicts the Soviets in a positive manner due to it focusing on the Battle of Stalingrad.

===Bethesda Software===
*''The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim'': This addition to the fantasy game series ''The Elder Scrolls'' tells about the player being prophesized as a "Dragonborn" (a being with the body of a mortal and the soul of a dragon) to do battle with the dark dragon Alduin and delay the end of the world. In the midst of the crisis is an ongoing civil war between the rebel Stormcloaks led by Ulfric Stormcloak and the Imperial Legion. The game engages in a few liberal themes, including an option for same-sex marriage and a promotion of feminism (including high-ranking female "legates", the game's equivalent of a colonel, with the females given a more masculine design). However, it is also inspired by conservative novels such as ''Lord of the Rings'', ''Beowulf'', and ''The Chronicles of Narnia'' and has conservative messages just like them. Such messages include redemption and striving to do good when the great white dragon Paarthurnax is revealed to have once been Alduin's second-in-command but has since tamed his more savage nature to be at peace with the mysterious Greybeards and other humans, asking "What is better: to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" Both sides in the civil war have valid reasons for their actions: The Legion that is stationed in Skyrim wants a united empire to stand against the high elves, and the Stormcloaks want Skyrim to be more independent from the empire, similar to the colonists from the [[American Revolution]].
*''Fallout 4'': Part of the apocalyptic Fallout series, the player (a soldier for a male character, a lawyer for a female character) is cryogenically frozen, witnessing his/her infant son being kidnapped. They awaken two hundred years later in post-apocalyptic Boston, Massachusetts (called the Commonwealth) and embark on a journey to find their son, joined by new friends and various factions. The game does condemn nuclear weapons; even a companion named Deacon believes this about weapons of any kind: "Guns don't solve problems, they just create more". Players can even choose to be involved in a homosexual relationship with companions of the same sex, and a minor character and a Miss Nanny robot fall in love and marry. Like having the choice to do good, the player can also choose to do harmful things like murder or stealing, which other companions (like Courser X6-88 and super mutant Strong) will commend them for. The DLC called "Nuka World" (taking place in a soda-based amusement park) has the option of leading a violent band of raiders on a mission to subdue the Commonwealth; this, however, is also up to the player, who can wipe out the raiders instead. However, the game also portrays friendship and other virtues like courage well, as shown with the well-meaning but harsh Brotherhood of Steel. The Minutemen - initially led by Preston Garvey - are shown to be altruistic patriots, ready to defend other people and preserve freedom for the Commonwealth; they even have a motto saying "Freedom at a minute's notice". Family is also promoted in several ways: The player is searching for their son who is kidnapped as a baby, reporter Piper Wright and her sister Nat work together as a team in journalism, and MacCready wanders the Commonwealth in search of a cure for his sick son. The player even has the choices of doing good, like defending settlements from attack or giving money or supplies to the needy, and several companions (including Piper and synth detective Nick Valentine) will praise the player for their good choices.

===Capcom===
*''Resident Evil'' series: The games generally have a subtle anti-capitalist and anti-American agenda (with one of the protagonists in ''Resident Evil 3: Nemesis'', Carlos, being a communist rebel according to the game's Japanese version, and some versions of ''Resident Evil 5'' have a secret conversation between the game's protagonists, Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar, where the former denounces America due to it being capitalist.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VA-aH1K_zBU</ref>). However, it also has a condemnation against social Darwinism and eugenics, as most of the main villains in the franchise tended to promote some form of eugenics as well as social Darwinism as their motives. In addition, one of the protagonists, Barry Burton, was implied in the English localization to be a member of the [[National Rifle Association]], and the games also to some extent featured pro-family messaging, as Barry Burton was shown to be very loyal to his family, and the character Claire Redfield is depicted as being loyal to her brother Chris, spending Resident Evil 2 trying to find him and in Code Veronica refuses to allow Albert Wesker to harm him. The games also showcase government corruption in a scarily realistic and negative light in the form of Albert Wesker (who was a former police officer in the first Resident Evil) and Brian Irons (the police chief for the Raccoon City Police Department in Resident Evil 2). Resident Evil 4 also has a condemnation against pagan religions in the form of the Los Illuminados (which is Spanish for "The Enlightened Ones", and may subtly condemn the Illuminati), and the game ''Umbrella Chronicles'' has a possible negative depiction of Communism, or at the very least Soviet-style communism, as one of the main antagonists of that game, Sergei Vladimir, is depicted as an unrepentant former Soviet soldier who in one of the in-game files is strongly implied to have ultimately desired the restoration of the Soviet state.
*''Dead Rising 2'' and ''Dead Rising 2: Off the Record'': Although it has largely the same plotline as in the first ''Dead Rising'', it also to some extent is pro-family, due to the main character trying to save his daughter from infection. In addition, unlike the first or third main entries to the series, the hidden antagonist is not a military person, but instead a former rapper and TV executive who orchestrated the entire outbreak to boost ratings as well as steal wealth, acting as a subtle condemntation to [[Hollywood values]].

===Frontier Developments===
*''Jurassic World Evolution'': A spiritual sequel to ''Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis'' from 2001, this game takes the player across the Muerto Archipelago - a chain of tropical islands off the coast of Costa Rica - as they build dinosaur parks for the public. In a way, it promotes the pro-cloning message from the films ''The Lost World: Jurassic Park'' and ''Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'', though Ian Malcolm from the movies does warn the player about the consequences of creating dinosaurs. On the other hand, it also promotes capitalism, showing that the park cannot operate without money, requiring the player to build shops, complete contracts to earn rewards, and create fully-cloned dinosaurs to bring in more money and build up the parks. Three DLCS include "The Secrets of Dr. Wu", "Claire's Sanctuary", and "Return to Jurassic Park", as well as having different upgrades and new dinosaurs added with them. A sequel called ''Jurassic World Evolution 2'' was released in November 2021, taking place after the events of ''Fallen Kingdom'' and following the gameplay and values of the first.

===Konami===
*''Metal Gear Solid''/''Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes'': Although the first game does have condemnation towards Cloning and genetic engineering, and also has (albeit unintentionally) a pro-life/anti-abortion message due to Liquid Snake, when describing the process of the Les Enfants Terribles' creation, in particular its use of abortion to encourage fetal growth, explicitly labeling it as murder (although in that case, he attributed the act of murder more to himself and his brother Solid Snake, both byproducts of the project, than to the people actually responsible for the Super Baby Method), as well as promoting the concept of redemption to some extent, and also paints terrorism in an appropriately bad light, it at the same time is rife with anti-Americanism among both heroes and villains (although obviously not to the same extent as in later entries) as well as pushing an anti-nuclear and anti-war agenda, both of which seemed to focus more on America doing so than other countries, in particular Russia and China (specifically, the character Nastasha Romanenko, a member of NEST, spent most of her time condemning America for using nuclear weapons or even using nuclear power at all, and giving very little, if any criticism towards Russia and China for their having nukes, despite the fact that the event that caused her to hold a strong hatred for nukes, Chernobyl, having originated from within the Soviet bloc).

===Nintendo===
*''Metroid: Other M:'' Although largely part of the Metroid series and retaining some of its more conservative elements (namely, the promotion of parenthood and condemning the concept of playing god), the game was rather infamous for several criticisms it experienced in the game, namely the characterization of Adam Malkovich and his relationship with Samus due to it coming across more as promoting an abusive relationship (such as Adam shooting Samus in the back before sacrificing himself). The game, unlike in the Prime series, also depicts the military in a more negative manner, as a flashback had Samus being restrained from turning her back on Adam despite her intention being to save Ian, his brother, from death, as well as one of the more controversial elements of the game being the authorization element which at one point has Adam failing to actually authorize the Varia Suit to allow Samus to traverse through a superheated area despite it nearly killing her until a long while afterward, and also had as its main plot a conspiracy to weaponized Metroids at the order of the Federation military (as well as having someone within Samus's group attempt to assassinate each of the members in order to silence them to any potential discoveries to the conspiracy in question via the character The Deleter).

===Radical Games===
*''The Simpsons Hit and Run'': Although there are some liberal themes, such as Marge's crusade against Bonestorm-an implied violent video game-being depicted in a negative light, some characters engaging in lawlessness in a similar manner to ''Grand Theft Auto'', and one of the later chapters for the game having the main antagonists supply the townspeople with ray guns as well as tainted cola in a way that could be interpreted as supporting gun control, it also had several conservative messages, namely pro-family, as two of the chapters dealt with Lisa and Marge trying to find Bart after he went missing and trying to find out the cause behind his addled behavior, and later attempting to stop the production of Buzz Cola due to its effects on Bart, respectively, the first chapter and most of the game features a condemnation towards mass surveillance due to the presence of surveillance vans and wasp cameras and their being treated in a clear negative light, especially in a matter that isn't essential to stopping a threat, and is also anti-Hollywood values due to the main antagonists, aliens by the name of Kang and Kodos, deliberately trying to cause a ruckus in Springfield, including the aforementioned distribution of ray guns and tainted Buzz Cola to cause a shootout and later reanimating the dead via Buzz Cola, plus using the wasp cameras and surveillance vans all in an attempt to boost ratings of their reality show "Foolish Earthlings," which as the title implies deals with depicting various people of Earth, in particular Springfield, doing various stupid actions. Also has a rarity in the franchise where nuclear power is actually depicted in a positive light due to it ultimately being the only thing that stopped Kang and Kodos's alien invasion. There is also a humorous condemnation towards gun-free school zones, as during the same level that Bart has to stop the distribution of ray guns to the populace at Squidport, Principal Skinner explicitly references the no-gun policy among students at Springfield Elementary when confiscating Bart's ray gun, despite Bart making clear he only needed the gun to supply evidence towards an evil plot.

===Rockstar North===
*''Red Dead Redemption'': Set in 1911, a former outlaw named John Marston is tasked by a corrupt government official to hunt down his former gang members in exchange for getting his wife and son back. Like with the ''Grand Theft Auto'' series, the player can choose to do bad deeds like murder, stealing horses and money, and robbing people. There is even a hint of bestiality when a minor character marries his horse Lucy, though the main character is rightfully flabbergasted at the reveal that the man's lost love is a horse. However, the positives in the game outweigh the negative. ''Red Dead Redemption'' promotes the importance of family in the form of John trying to work hard to be with his family again, even trying to spend time with his son Jack and saving him from a [[brown bear]]; there is also traditional marriage being upheld, for John will refuse to sleep with prostitutes and remains faithful to his wife Abigail. It condemns government corruption through main villain Edgar Ross, who wants all of John's former gang destroyed to get all the glory for it, to the point where he has his army kill John in spite of promising to leave the latter alone once his job is done. It also promotes doing good like donating to a nunnery, helping people (whether rescuing people from gangs or wild animals to just fetching items for them), and doing jobs for them.
*''Red Dead Redemption 2'': Set 12 years before the events of Red Dead Redemption, this game explores how the Dutch Van Der Linde gang had fallen from their prime in the point-of-view of one of Dutch's righthand men: Arthur Morgan. During the course of the game, the gang changes much and even leads Arthur to start questioning Dutch's increasingly reckless decisions. Like with the ''Grand Theft Auto'' series, the player can choose to do bad deeds like murder, stealing horses and money, and robbing people, and the main character (no matter how high their honor may be) will be a part of a notorious gang of robbers and bandits. Dutch himself is portrayed as an early communist, believing in redistributing wealth as they steal from the rich and give to the poor, based on the Jacobin version of [[Robin Hood]] as portrayed by Joseph Ritson. Feminism is also promoted in a way by the character of the widow Sadie Adler, who insists of doing more work than helping with cooking; it's further shown when she later fights off and kills three men at once on her own in spite of a physical disadvantage. Like the first game, however, there are a lot more positives. As the title suggests, it promotes redemption in the form of main protagonist Arthur Morgan helping John Marston and his family escape the collapsing gang at the cost of his own life (whether from succumbing to tuberculosis or being murdered by main antagonist Micah Bell, which depends on whether the player has high or low honor). [[Hunting]] is portrayed positively while poaching is negatively shown, for half black/half [[Native American]] Charles Smith is angered at the sight of poachers leaving intact [[bison]] carcasses to rot. The game also shows doing good deeds, heroism, and family (whether it be with the Marston family or most of the Dutch Van Der Linde gang) in a positive light.
*''The Bully'': A delinquent named Jimmy Hopkins is sent to a primary school to correct his behavior. There, he learns the hierarchy of the school cliques and rises up the ranks. Jimmy is shown as a jerk who gets involved in fights with bullies and high school cliques. The game has also been criticized by conservatives because it is possible for the player to engage the protagonist in homosexual relationships.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.neoseeker.com/news/6237-bully-under-spotlight-for-homosexual-content/|title=Bully Under Spotlight For "Homosexual" Content|author=Leo Chan|date=2006-10-24|accessdate=2019-03-08|work=Neoseeker|publisher=Neo Era Media, Inc.}}</ref> In spite of all that, though, the game does show the dangers of high school cliques as well as bullies, and Jimmy can choose to stand up to bullies and help the other kids in school.

===Square-Enix===
*''Final Fantasy II:'' In initial releases for the game, the game had an undeniably pro-Christian element to the games, and also condemned Satanic worshippers and totalitarianism in the form of the game's main villain Emperor Mateus Palamecia, who explicitly goes to Hell when he dies and tries to take over the world with the powers he gained from Hell. However, the remakes starting with the GBA version added in a new mode called "Dawn of Souls" which has the killed party members fighting against the Emperor's light half who took over Heaven, which could be interpreted as an anti-Christian message.
*''Final Fantasy VI:'' Promotes parenthood due to Terra Branford becoming a mother figure for the Mobliz orphans late into the game, which also had her learning the concept of love, and also showcases the horrors of totalitarian ideologies in the form of the Gestahlian Empire, and also offers a condemnation of [[nihilism]] in the form of the game's main antagonist Kefka Palazzo (who is depicted in a similar manner to [[Joker (comics)|the Joker]] from the Batman franchise). However, Terra also makes a more relativistic remark when trying to refute Kefka regarding finding meanings in things.
*''Final Fantasy VII:'' Promotes the concept of redemption and condemns unethical science in the form of Professor Hojo, but on the other hand, it also has a more anti-Capitalist view on things with Shin-Ra, the main antagonists, being a corporation, and is hinted to promote environmentalism due to the main protagonists being eco-terrorists. The whole game nature is very homoerotic, and one of the game missions involves cross-dressing. Moreover, the main character of the game, Cloud is hugely popular with corrupt liberal game journalists as a symbol of the "toxic masculinity" deconstruction.

===Ubisoft===
*Assassins Creed 3: The Assassins help the American Revolution by killing the Templar leaders of the British. However, a DLC came out for the game that has you kill all of the [[Founding Fathers]].

* Far Cry 5: The main villains of the game are inaccurately portrayed as Christians, while the previous game villains were more politically neutral (they include a psychotic pirate and an atheistic dictator). However, Jerome Jeffries, one of the characters who aids the player, is a Christian pastor. Richard "Dutch" Roosevelt, another supporting character, has a distrust for government. The game also occasionally pokes fun at liberals and paints the 2nd-amendment in a positive light.

===Indie/Small Developers===

• Undertale: On one hand, it teaches the importance of core Christian values such as mercy and compassion by discouraging killing characters, and instead solving conflicts non-violently. On the other hand, it involves homosexual and bisexual relationships, some of which may involve the player character (who is 12 years of age and androgynous) depending on what dialogue choices the player makes.

Essay:Greatest Conservative Video Games

2023-01-21T17:54:47Z

Shobson20: /* SNK */

Although the video game industry by and large is liberal, there have been instances of video games promoting conservative values.

==Artifex Mundi==
This small studio mostly works on mobile games, but their PC title ''Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka With Love'' is a very funny take on young and naïve people fiercely promoting socialism/communism.

The point-and-click game takes place in 1951 during the Cold War and portrays a young journalist, Evan, who defends Matryoshka's communist regime and its dictator, a clear parallel with the USSR, in any opportunity. He is then sent to Matryoshka and gets involved in a tale of espionage while experiencing the communist regime and slowly coming to terms with reality. As an example, when he sees a bread line in the beginning of his adventure, he somehow spins that as a positive thing, in the sense of "how the supreme leader is feeding all his people". A must-play for young teenagers who are flirting with leftist ideologies.

==Axis Entertainment==
This India-based gaming studio produces child-friendly, free games (sponsored by ads which are targeted toward their audience's parents).

Their main offering is the '''[[Baby Hazel]]''' game series. The title character is a two-year-old female toddler, featured doing positive activities (taking care of her newborn brother Matt, fixing food in the kitchen with her mother) and learning positive traits (manners, hygiene). The family is portrayed as a traditional nuclear family (father, mother, Hazel, and baby brother Matt) along with extended family, various friends and pets. One offering features Earth Day, but portrayed in a neutral manner to show care for the environment without getting into liberal traits. Many of the offerings feature Hazel saying prayers, not usually seen in secular video games.

However, the graphics are very simplistic and the games are known to have glitches in them; if a level is frozen the entire game must be restarted from the beginning (though there are only four levels in each game). Also being a foreign company the games do not feature proper English grammar (either American or British).

==Ubisoft==
*Watchdogs: Despite coming from the ultra-liberal video game company Ubisoft, the game Watch Dogs has several Conservative messages, namely those of pro-family, anti-crime, and anti-big government. However, its sequel qualified as liberal.
*Assassin's Creed Unity: Despite it coming from the ultra-liberal video game company Ubisoft as well as the liberal ''Assassin's Creed'' video game franchise, the game's plot specifically condemned the French Revolution and its adherents, with various notable figures of the French Revolution and Reign of Terror being targets for assassination.
*''Rainbow Six'' series: Based on the Tom Clancy novel of the same name, it deals with a special forces unit dealing with terrorists worldwide.
*''Ghost Recon'' series: Like with Rainbow Six, it deals with a special forces unit combating terrorists.

==Koei-Tecmo==
*''Dead or Alive'' series: The fighting game franchise had several conservative messages. One of which was pro-family, as the main character, Kasumi, joined the Dead or Alive tournament specifically to avenge her brother when he ended up critically injured by her uncle, and Kasumi, despite being on the run from her clan due to her technically violating their laws to do so, ultimately wants to return to her clan and family someday throughout the series, and in Dead or Alive 4, 5, and Dimensions, Ayane eventually managed to put aside her murderous jealousy against her half-sister and try to aid her. Similarly, Hayate, her brother, is also reluctant to kill his sister, despite the law mandating it, and their mother, Ayame, also stops Ayane (who was an illegitimate child due to Raidou, the uncle of Hayate and Kasumi who was responsible for the former's injury, having previously raped Ayame) from committing suicide and specifically stated not to kill Kasumi specifically because she was family, which was stronger than any Shinobi code. Similarly, in Dead or Alive 5, the character of Helena Douglas attempts to honor her deceased father's memory by restoring DOATEC to what her father Fame envisioned, and her overall character arc had her trying to avenge her deceased mother when she was murdered during a performance. In addition, the reason Helena's mother had died was because she took the bullet to save her daughter, due to said assassin, Christie, actually aiming for Helena herself during the performance. In addition, the character Hitomi in Dead or Alive 4 took control of the dojo specifically because her father had succumbed to an illness and needed money to help him and his dojo, with the character Gen-Fu having a similar motive regarding his granddaughter Mei Lin in Dead or Alive 1 and 2, entering to gain money for an operation to save her, and in Dead or Alive 3 to pay the medical bills, retiring only after she was fully cured and he fully paid off the debt and spending time with her afterward. Helena Douglas is also depicted as a Christian as well as depicted in a more positive light. In addition, even though it was a Japanese-created game series, it is also notable as featuring a surprisingly pro-American message in the form of the Armstrongs, as their patriotism was depicted in a positive light, and the character Tina was depicted as also trying to follow through with the American Dream. Also has an anti-cloning message, as the villainous DOATEC (and later, MIST) created various clones of Kasumi, with all of them being depicted as either villains (Alpha Kasumi, later known as Alpha-152) or victims (Phase 4). There is also a slight condemnation against feminism in Dead or Alive 5, as Tina tells Mila that "pretty girls shouldn't fight." On a related note, similar to Isabelle in ''Animal Crossing: New Leaf'' below, one of the expansions for ''Dead or Alive 5'', ''Last Round'', featured the debut of the character Honoka, who is depicted as being very positive and eager, and is the antithesis of a modern feminist.

==Konami==
*Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater: Although it was part of the liberal ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' series, and also gave some hints at promoting the concept of [[Globalism]] and also relativism (and to a lesser extent nihilism) via The Boss's philosophy, the game's overall message was surprisingly conservative, emphasizing a promotion of patriotism in a (in comparison to the rest of the series at least) positive light throughout most of the game, and also featuring the Soviet Union and Communism in general in a more negative light, including depicting the main villain, Colonel Volgin, in a truly villainous and horrific light, as well as referencing several real-life [[war crimes]] conducted by the USSR such as the [[Katyn Massacre|massacre at Katyn Forest]] during World War II (including making clear that the Soviets, in particular Volgin, was responsible for the event, not the Nazis which was even referenced in-game, as well as making explicitly clear that [[Joseph Stalin]] had ordered for the massacre by the NKVD in the first place, as well as similar massacres within the Ukraine and [[Kurapaty|Western Belarus]] as well as it resulting in at least 24,000 deaths including the mass grave discovered by the Wehrmacht near Gnezdovo village), the massacres during the [[Hungarian Revolution of 1956|Hungarian Revolution in 1956]] as well as the [[Uprising of East Germany in 1953|uprising in East Germany]] on June 17, 1953. It also to a certain extent attempts to promote American values (especially in comparison to most entries in the series prior to and after that game). In addition, the man trying to defect from the Soviet Union to America in the beginning of the game, Nikolai Stepanovich Sokolov, is shown in a sympathetic light and was also shown to be a family man, as when defecting to the United States and trying to cross the Iron Curtain, he made clear that he won't leave without his family, and late in the game, when acknowledging he probably won't be able to go to America, he has Naked Snake swear to take care of his family for him. In addition, it has a slight anti-homosexual agenda message due to the character Major Raikov alongside the main villain Volgin being strongly implied to be in a homosexual relationship, and neither character being depicted in a positive or sympathetic light. Also, contrary to most Cold War-related storylines which usually downplays Soviet involvement in various third-world conflicts such as Vietnam, it is made explicitly clear that the Soviets played a huge role in various uprisings within the third world, with radio conversations dealing with various weapons making very clear that the Soviets had involvement in South Vietnam, in the Malaysia Emergency, and that they even devised various traps specifically to be adopted by any communist allies in third world regions and were researching various traps within the Soviet Union via one of the key locations in the game. Volgin's main plan for the Shagohod also involved mass-producing it for the Eastern Bloc and then using it as bait to ferment uprisings against "dictators, ethnic insurgents, and revolutionary groups" throughout the third world, which not only acts as further confirmation of Soviet communism's involvement in the third world uprisings, but also hints at Volgin planning on engineering revolts against the USSR while he is in control of it, alluding to how various Communist ideologues often tried to instigate revolts even when firmly in power (owing to Karl Marx's advocating that the communists upon assuming power be obliged to reenact Robespierre's Reign of Terror).
**Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops: Like ''Snake Eater'' above, it also attempts to invoke patriotism in a more positive light, and the main villains are explicitly shown to try and invoke nihilism, anti-American commentary as well as promoting class warfare at one point (citing a growing gap between the rich and poor during a speech midway through the game). It also has a condemnation against Soviet policies, as a large part of the reason why the personnel of a missile base in Colombia (who were of Soviet origin) ended up turning to Gene's cause was out of revenge for essentially being cut off from the Soviet brass due to the events of Détente in order for the Soviets to place the blame on "out-of-control soldiers" in the event the base was discovered, and when the Soviet personnel ultimately did aid Snake in stopping the possible nuclear launch against the Soviet Union, it is solely due to the Soviet Union being their homeland and not out of any love for its policies. Similar to ''Metal Gear Solid 3'', it makes clear that the Soviets were also heavily involved in the actions of various liberation fronts in the third world, as the reason the Soviets had the missile base in Colombia in the first place was because the Soviets had been aiding the [[Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia|FARC]] communist rebel group in the backstory, and the character Frank Jaegar, aka, Null, had formerly been a member of the communist-backed FREMILO, with Big Boss being implied to have aided the Portuguese Soldiers during the Mozambician Civil War.
*Contra series: Pro-military and Pro-American. American heroes fight against villainous organizations and alien invaders.
*Castlevania series: Various members of the Belmont Clan, implied to be Christian (in Castlevania II, Simon Belmont restores his HP by visiting a church, in Castlevania III, Trevor Belmont kneels before a Cross in the intro, and in the Nintendo 64 version of the game, the character Reinhardt Schneider is seen making the trinity prayer gesture ["in the name of the father, the son, and the holy spirit"] in the beginning of his scenario, and when comforting Rosa, offers her last rites.) fight against the occult forces of Count Dracula.
*Metal Gear Solid Revengance: Although part of the liberal ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' series, Revengance is a unique take on the series condemning modern liberalism and debunks false narratives perpetuated by the left. The protagonist Raiden is strongly implied to be Christian, listening to opposing viewpoints and only passing judgement after failing to convince the liberal antagonists of their wrongdoings. The antagonists are caricatures of liberal ideals such as feminism and media censorship. The final fight of the game is against United States Senator Armstrong, a hard working American who fought to earn his position, and tells Raiden that he wants to "Make America Great Again!". The fight ends with Raiden joining forces with Senator Armstrong to bring America out of the liberal miasma. Additionally, The Jetstream Sam DLC celebrates the old American West, and the protagonist of the DLC, Sam, is a cowboy figure who works his way up society and joins forces with Senator Armstrong.
==Play Mechanix Inc.==
*[[Big Buck Hunter]] series: Pro-hunting arcade game series.

==Electronic Arts==
*Battlefield series: Similarly to the Call of Duty series, it tends to promote American values as well as being pro-military. However its recent title Battlfield V betrays its fanbase for the sake of being woke. Allowing for female soldiers even though it historicaly inacurate for non russian female soldiers in WW2. The game has also made "white men" a swear word.
*Medal of Honor series: Like above, it tends to promote American values as well as being pro-military. Although the series mostly deals with the events of [[World War II]], two of the more recent games deal with the [[War in Afghanistan]].
*Command And Conquer series: A military real-time strategy series divided into three sub-series: ''Tiberium, Red Alert'' and ''Generals''. The ''Tiberium'' series, however, promotes globalism but at the same time, condemns religious extremism. The latter two are more conservative and pro-American, with ''Red Alert'' fighting against Soviet communism and ''Generals'' fighting against Islamic extremism.

==Nintendo==
*''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' series: Similar in vein to stories such as ''Lord of the Rings'', ''Beowulf'', and ''The Chronicles of Narnia'', the games detail a classic message of good fighting evil, and also featured implicit Christian themes in the series (in fact, until the third game, the religion of the people in the games was supposed to be Christianity, hence the cross on Link's Shield in the first game). The main villain, Ganon, is revealed to have originally belonged to a group known as the Gerudo, who are depicted as a nearly all-female race (Ganon, or more accurately his human form Ganondorf, being the only exception) and having traits resembling Muslims, hinting at an anti-feminist/anti-Islam message. There was also a pro-family message in at least one game in the series, as one of the entries, ''Wind Waker'', featured Link trying to save his sister after she was abducted early on in the game, as well as their getting along amicably throughout.
*Radar Mission: Pro-military game based on the board game battleship, it teaches the player the art of strategy, with the story involving the player fighting against an enemy fleet and, later, an enemy airfield that is implied to be the main headquarters of the enemy. Also has an alternate game mode that deals with Submarine warfare.
*''[[Metroid]]'' series: Although largely being based on the liberal movie franchise ''Alien'', the game franchise has several conservative elements. Namely, it depicts piracy and terrorism in a negative manner in the form of the murderous Space Pirates who frequently act as the main antagonists of the franchise. The game ''Super Metroid'' also promotes parenthood in a positive light, as the main plotline of the game involved Samus Aran trying to rescue her "child", a Metroid hatchling she adopted after wiping out its race in the previous game due to it imprinting on her, from the Space Pirate forces. The Prime series also depicts the military in a positive manner in the form of the Galactic Federation Marines, and some of the Chozo Logs as well as the Luminoth also have some similarities to biblical accounts (i.e., the Worm, alluding to the titular antagonist Metroid Prime, alluding to Wormwood in the book of revelations). In addition, although the main protagonist, Samus Aran, is female, it does not promote the concept of feminism. The game ''Metroid Fusion'' also showcases the warnings of playing god and government corruption.
*''[[Punch-Out!!]]'' series: Pro-American dream, as the player, as Little Mac, a rookie boxer from New York, has to fight to the championship to acquire the title of world champion of boxing.
* ''Cooking Mama'' series: A charming cooking series that utilizes the mechanics of the games system's mechanics to teach cooking. Does favor traditional gender roles with the title character, Mama, an enthusiastic chef/stay-at-home mother. This series was "parodied" by [[PETA]] (The parody game is subtitled ''Mama Kills Animals''!) due to the series including meat-based recipes, but the developers, Majesco, exploited the frenetic attention that PETA was gaining with such gore. The series started in 2006 and has been steady releasing games, the most recent being a mobile app game called ''Cooking Mama: Let's Cook!''

==''Paranoid Productions''==
*''The Church In The Darkness'': The game's premise deals with a preacher infiltrating a cult to save their nephew. The antagonistic cult is heavily implied to be based on the cult led by the infamous [[Jim Jones]]. Aside from it condemning the socialist elements as well as being pro-traditional christianity and pro-family, it also has a condemnation of [[social justice warrior]] elements, as the game repeatedly refers to the antagonistic cult as "collective justice warriors."<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2019/08/the-church-in-the-darkness-gameplay-walkthrough/90218/</ref>

==Sega==
*''Streets of Rage'' series: An anti-crime and anti-gang series in which former police officers fight against a crime syndicate run by a "Mr. X."

==SNK==
*''Metal Slug'' series: Pro-military and pro-American, deals with the main characters trying to fight terrorists of various stripes.
*''Iron Tank'': Unlike its predecessor ''Guerilla War'', this involved an American tank commando trying to take down the Nazis, and is blatantly pro-American.
*''Art of Fighting'' series: A series with strong pro-family themes and anti-crime. The first game has Ryo Sakazaki teaming up with his friend and rival Robert Garcia to rescue Ryo's kidnapped sister Yuri. After fighting through the minions of South Town crime lord Mr. Big and Mr. Big himself, the final boss battle is against the mysterious "Mr. Katate" who turns out to be Ryo and Yuri's father who was forced to work for Mr. Big by holding his daughter hostage. Art of Fighting 2 has former Mr. Big employee King entering the tournament to earn money to get an operation for her brother Jan. The third game has an anti-drug message as Robert helps his childhood friend Freia Lawrence find their old friend Wyler who takes a super drug that causes him to become a hulking brute with the mind of a child. It also has Kasumi Todoh wanting to find her father, Ryuhaku Todoh, who was defeated by Ryo/Robert in the first game, and wanting to fight Ryo to avenge her father's defeat. However, in Kasumi's ending, her mother tells her to stop her vengeance quest and says that it does not honor her father.

==Synergestic Software==
*''Super Battleship'': Pro-military strategy game based on the board game Battleship. In addition to the standard game, there is also a story-based mode that has you dealing with several military operations and fighting against enemy fleets (implied by the eagle on the flag to be the Nazis). Teaches the player about the art of strategy.

==Pterodon/Illusion Software==
*''Vietcong'': Promotes American forces in a positive light, and, despite the title of the game, the Vietcong are depicted as villains in this. Overall promotes the [[Vietnam War]].

==Square-Enix==
*''Final Fantasy:'' The first game in the franchise has a simple tale of Good vs. Evil.
*''Final Fantasy IV:'' Promotes the concept of redemption, and showcases a clear message of good vs. evil.

==Capcom==
*''194X'' series: Despite being made by the Japanese developer Capcom, this series of scrolling shooters has the player playing as and American Lockheed P-38 Lightning fighting in the Pacific War.
*''Devil May Cry'' Series: Has messages about stopping demonic forces of hell and protecting humanity/having a heart with pro-family themes throughout the 5 games.
*''Mega Man ZX'' series: Has a significant condemnation of [[Social Darwinism]] in the form of Serpent and Master Albert, and also has a condemnation of homosexuality in the form of Rospark the Floroid. Also depicts terrorism in a very negative light.
*Final Fight: Pro-family and anti-crime. Metro City's new mayor, Mike Haggar, vows to get tough on crime. In response, the city's infamous "Mad Gear" gang kidnaps Haggar's daughter, Jessica and demands that he "just let us do what we want to like the old mayor did," implying that the old mayor was in collusion with the Mad Gears. Mike Haggar, Jessica's boyfriend Cody, and Cody's friend Guy take to the streets and fight through the Mad Gear gang to rescue Jessica. The ending shows Mike embracing his daughter, comforting her after her traumatic experience with him saying "I thought I'd lose you the way I lost your mother" and Jessica responding "I love you, Daddy."

==Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc.==
*''Ace Combat 04:Shattered Skies'': Pro-military and has the player fighting against a fictional fascist regime. The last mission has heavy Christian symbolism. Megalith, a superweapon designed to alter the course of asteroids to any target on Earth, has been activated by rogue military officers, and has the weapon direct asteroids to the continent. The falling of the asteroids images one of the events in the Book of Revelations. The mission to destroy Megalith symbolizes the sacrifice of Jesus: the superweapon itself is shaped like a crucifix (a symbol of death), Megalith is a stone used to sacrifice animals and to create tombs. To destroy Megalith, the player has to fly inside the superweapon and destroy the generators and missiles inside. This symbolizes Jesus sacrificing his life as the Lamb of God to save mankind from their sins as the player is "sacrificing" his life to stop the asteroids killing civilians. Indeed, the background music is a repeated Latin chorus which is translated as:

''Lamb of God,
''who take away the sins of the world
''Grant them rest.

The destruction of the superweapon by the player symbolizes the defeat of death by Christ, with the AWACS officer remarking, "Heroes really do exist. We've just seen one, and now he's coming home." As he says this, sunlight breaks through the clouds, and the player flies towards them as he returns to base, symbolizing Christ's Ascension.

==Rockstar==
*''L.A. Noir'': Despite being made by Rockstar, L.A. Noir places the character in the role of a detective rather than a criminal. The player investigates murders and collects evidence, interrogates witnesses and suspects while chasing down criminals. The player also has the option of stopping street crime during the game at random intervals. L.A. Noir stresses using intelligence and insight to solve crimes rather than commit them as done in other games. This is the only Rockstar game which doesn't use violence except in the furtherance of stopping a crime against an innocent party. The player is rewarded for capturing a suspect rather than appealing to violence as a first consideration.

==Paradox Interactive==
* ''Crusader Kings III'': This is a Role-playing game that takes place during the [[Medieval Age]] in Europe, North [[Africa]], and the [[Middle East]]. This period is famous for its piousness and devotion to the principles of God, as in opposition to the values of sin. It also promotes true conservative values like fighting [[Islam]] and converting the religion of heathens.
* ''Hearts of Iron 4'': This is a World War Two era strategy game that features very complex gameplay. The game was attacked by the [[CCP]] for it's accurate depiction of [[Tibet]], [[Manchuria]], and [[East Turkestan]] as independent countries before the Chinese invasions of each. The game's ''Man the Guns'' expansion was also heavily criticized for its accurate depiction of [[Democratic Socialism]] as a buzzword for [[communism]]. ''Hearts of Iron 4'' also features a positive depiction of [[Catholics]] and a negative depiction of [[Atheists]]. The game also recognizes Communism and Fascism as having the same inherent government form, [[Totalitarianism]]. ''Hearts of Iron 4'' was attacked by the leftist site [[Kotuku]] for allowing a player made modification that featured a positive depiction of [[Christianity]] and a negative depiction of [[Islamic Terrorism]].

==Mojang==
*''Minecraft'': [[Minecraft]] was created by a lone computer programmer, outside of any major studio (a [[best of the public]] approach to game development), and later sold to Microsoft for $1 Billion. The game could probably be best described as an electronic form of Lego but vastly more complex. Game play is very simple, the player is dropped into a randomly generated world and must mine resources and craft tools and other items. Despite the simplicity of play the game can be used to create extremely complex circuitry and other types of constructions. The game contains no violence (outside of occasionally battling cartoonish enemies during the night hours), no swearing or sex. The game is hugely popular and has a dedicated following proving games do not have to be violent to be popular. Minecraft also has an education pack which is used to teach children about science, history, biology and other subjects<ref>https://education.minecraft.net/class-resources/lessons/</ref>

==Rocksteady Studios==
*''Batman: Arkham'' series: In these games the player plays as Batman to defeat enemies like The Joker, Poison Ivy, Bane and other villains from the the Batman universe. The game stresses no violence and preferring players to use their wits to hide and stalk enemies rather than engaging in immediate violence. While you do need to defeat enemies physically in many circumstances Batman never kills anyone - preferring to knock enemies out and leave them to be captured by police. Also portrays capitalism in a positive light, due to Lucius Fox being a frequent ally in ''Arkham Knight'' and to a lesser extent ''Arkham City''.

==Insomniac Games==
*''Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal'': This game in the Ratchet & Clank franchise promotes the ideas of redemption, helping the military and the Second Amendment. It pokes fun at anti-racism and parodies of Britney Spears and Bill Clinton.
*''Ratchet: Deadlocked'': This game in the Ratchet & Clank franchise has Ratchet sent to an illegal combat sport called DreadZone. It promotes teamwork and condemns slandering and Hollywood values.

==Innersloth==
*''Among Us'': Impostors are an allegory for how liberals and immigrants infiltrate society and degrade our culture. Crewmates follow conservative ideals of hard work (completing tasks) while the impostors merely pretend to work and must be deported.

==Debatable whether Conservative==
===Indie/Small Developers===
• Undertale: On one hand, it teaches the importance of core Christian values such as mercy and compassion by discouraging killing characters, and instead solving conflicts non-violently. On the other hand, it involves homosexual and bisexual relationships, some of which may involve the player character (who is 12 years of age) depending on what dialogue choices the player makes.

• Dust An Elysian Tail: as the game was developed by a devout Christian couple, it has a significant amount of religious messages such as redemption, forgiveness and even hints to incarnation. The main characters combat against the genocidal tyrant whose views are comparable to the German Nazism and Japanese Militarism. In addition, the main developer personally thanks God Himself in the final credits of the game, calling him "everloving". It is worth noting that the game may scare away some conservatives with its (albeit very high-quality) furry art style, even though the developers themselves are not part of the infamous furry community.

===Capcom===
*Resident Evil series: The games generally have a subtle anti-capitalist and anti-American agenda (with one of the protagonists in ''Resident Evil 3: Nemesis'', Carlos, being a communist rebel according to the game's Japanese version, and some versions of ''Resident Evil 5'' have a secret conversation between the game's protagonists, Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar, where the former denounces America due to it being capitalist.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VA-aH1K_zBU</ref>). However, it also has a condemnation against social Darwinism and eugenics, as most of the main villains in the franchise tended to promote some form of eugenics as well as social Darwinism as their motives. In addition, one of the protagonists, Barry Burton, was implied in the English localization to be a member of the [[National Rifle Association]], and the games also to some extent featured pro-family messaging, as Barry Burton was shown to be very loyal to his family, and the character Claire Redfield is depicted as being loyal to her brother Chris, spending Resident Evil 2 trying to find him and in Code Veronica refuses to allow Albert Wesker to harm him. The games also showcase government corruption in a scarily realistic and negative light in the form of Albert Wesker (who was a former police officer in the first ''Resident Evil'') and Brian Irons (the police chief for the Raccoon City Police Department in ''Resident Evil 2''). Resident Evil 4 also has a condemnation against pagan religions in the form of the Los Illuminados (which is Spanish for "The Enlightened Ones", and may subtly condemn the Illuminati), and the game ''Umbrella Chronicles'' has a possible negative depiction of Communism, or at the very least Soviet-style communism, as one of the main antagonists of that game, Sergei Vladimir, is depicted as an unrepentant former Soviet soldier who in one of the in-game files is strongly implied to have ultimately desired the restoration of the Soviet state.
*''Dead Rising 2'' and ''Dead Rising 2: Off the Record'': Although it has largely the same plotline as in the first ''Dead Rising'', it also to some extent is pro-family, due to the main character trying to save his daughter from infection. In addition, unlike the first or third main entries to the series, the hidden antagonist is not a military person, but instead a former rapper and TV executive who orchestrated the entire outbreak to boost ratings as well as steal wealth, acting as a subtle condemntation to [[Hollywood values]].

===Electronic Arts===
*The Sims (and sequels): Promotes conservative values such as marriage, hard work, the raising of children, law and order, [[capitalism]], and private property ownership<ref>In the SimCity spinoff, the player is expected to build a city, which requires such.</ref>, but it also promotes other things that are anti-conservative, such as homosexual relationships and extramarital sexual relationships, and also has an implicit anti-military message due to there being negative aspects included with building military bases.<ref>In the SimCity spinoff, one option is a military base, but doing so comes with "higher crime" requiring increased police presence.</ref>. An afterlife exists in the game, but not in a Christian sense. The game was created by an [[atheist]].

===Frontier Developments===
*''Jurassic World Evolution'': A spiritual sequel to ''Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis'' from 2001, this game takes the player across the Muerto Archipelago - a chain of tropical islands off the coast of Costa Rica - as they build dinosaur parks for the public. In a way, it promotes capitalism, showing that the park cannot operate without money, requiring the player to build shops, complete contracts to earn rewards, and create fully-cloned dinosaurs to bring in more money and build up the parks. On the other hand, it also promotes the pro-cloning message from the films ''The Lost World: Jurassic Park'' and ''Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'', though Ian Malcolm from the movies does warn the player about the consequences of creating dinosaurs. Three DLCS include "The Secrets of Dr. Wu", "Claire's Sanctuary", and "Return to Jurassic Park", as well as having different upgrades and new dinosaurs added with them. A sequel called ''Jurassic World Evolution 2'' was released in November 2021, taking place after the events of ''Fallen Kingdom''.
*''Jurassic World Evolution 2'': The 2021 sequel to ''Jurassic World Evolution''- which itself is a spiritual sequel to 2001's ''Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis'' - takes the player to different biomes across the United States of America as they build dinosaur parks for the public. It takes place after the film ''Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'', which starts the age of dinosaurs living alongside mankind. Like its predecessor, it promotes capitalism, showing that the park cannot operate without money, requiring the player to build shops, complete contracts to earn rewards, and create fully-cloned dinosaurs to bring in more money and build up the parks. On the other hand, it also promotes the pro-cloning message from the films ''The Lost World: Jurassic Park'' and ''Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'', though Ian Malcolm from the movies does warn the player about the consequences of creating dinosaurs.

===Koei Tecmo===
*''Dead or Alive 6'': The game features some left wing elements (presumably due to some bullying by the higher-ups such as Tom Lee and Yohei Shimbori), including having Tina imply at one point that one of her goals as governor was to implement big government policies in a conversation with Zack, and the new character Diego is implied to be a socialist due to his bitterly inferring the tournament only exists to "entertain rich people". However, some of the more conservative elements from the games was still retained such as the pro-family messaging (Ryu Hayabusa while sparring with Hayate assures him that his sister Kasumi was safe, referring to an ambush by MIST on her life earlier that Hayabusa stopped, Helena making clear that Kokoro's the only family she has left when the latter was about to leave over the revelation that the two are half-sisters, and Diego's concern for his implied terminally ill mother. In addition, the final battle of the game has Kasumi, Ayane, and Hayate confronting their revived murderous uncle (and in Ayane's case, illegitimate father), Raidou, with Ayane's involvement being implied to be due to wanting to avenge her newly-discovered paternal half-sister, Honoka, who was left in critical condition due to her as well as Ayane being forcibly used by NiCO to revive him.). In addition, the game also has a condemnation of infidelity, as one of the lore bits implied that Helena's and Kokoro's father's womanizing habits is ultimately part of the reason he got killed. There's also a statement against the [[Idea of Progress]] philosophy, as the character NiCO embodies this philosophy regarding her use of unethical experiments, and Helena after NiCO was revealed to have attempted to revive her murdered mother Maria calls her out on it, even explicitly stating that even if science were to find a way to revive the dead, something like that should not ever be embraced.
*''Dead or Alive Xtreme'' series: A beach vacation spinoff for the ''Dead or Alive'' series. The ''Xtreme'' games include some softcore elements such as a pole dancing minigame as well as girls being implied to change in front of the player in ''Xtreme 3'', and it does feature some gambling. One of the characters, Kanna, also is a Japanese Oni and resembles a demon. However, series creator Tomonobu Itagaki indicated his primary intent for the game was merely to have the characters enjoying a vacation, not necessarily to promote softcore elements. In addition, regarding the game ''Xtreme Venus Vacation'', although the character Tamaki is heavily implied to be bisexual as well as an alcoholic, her more girl-obsessed and lewd elements were not treated in a particularly positive light based on the other girls being wary of her when interacting with her as well as Helena, her closest acquaintance, admitting that was a frequent problem of Tamaki's. The game also has a condemnation of feminism as well, as the character Nagisa was shown to initially have distaste for the Owner partly via feminist rhetoric, though she gradually changes her views on the Owner during her character arc. Three of the characters in that game, Fiona (who is heavily implied to be a Princess from Europe, presumably Great Britain due to comments made by her regarding schools having morning and noon tea times as well as modeling a swimsuit after the Christmas Tree Fairy.), Sayuri (a Japanese nurse), and Koharu (a Japanese girl who aspires to become an innkeeper due to her family background) are also depicted in a traditionally feminine manner. The games also retain the more pro-family elements from the original to a certain extent, as ''Xtreme 2'' had Ayane arriving at the island while going after Kasumi, with the implication being that she wished to patch things up with her half-sister, and both Kasumi and Ayane as well as Helena and Kokoro were shown to get along very well (with it also being heavily implied that Kokoro wished to have a long chat with Helena regarding their half-sibling status in one episode), and part of Nagisa's reasons for participating in the festival was in part to help her sister Misaki. In addition, the concept of chivalry is promoted, as you lose bonding points if you peek too soon during the aforementioned clothes changing element or gifting the girls any lewd outfits, and the owner of the island a few times refuses to take advantage of several girls even when he had the upper hand (for instance, not taking advantage of a drunken Tamaki in one episode, and forfeiting a poker game despite having the winning hand in order to avoid forcing Monica to strip per the pre-established rules of the game in another episode). The game ''Xtreme Venus Vacation'' also has an implicit promotion of capitalism, as Misaki when describing the objective of the owner of the island explicitly states that he needs to turn the island into the ultimate beach resort. The title of one of the Christmas events is also one of the few instances to explicitly reference the point of Christmas being to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ due to it being titled "Dreams of Holy Night."

===Konami===
*''Metal Gear Solid''/''Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes'': Although the first game does have condemnation towards Cloning and genetic engineering, and also has (albeit unintentionally) a pro-life/anti-abortion message due to Liquid Snake, when describing the process of the Les Enfants Terribles' creation, in particular its use of abortion to encourage fetal growth, explicitly labeling it as murder (although in that case, he attributed the act of murder more to himself and his brother Solid Snake, both byproducts of the project, than to the people actually responsible for the Super Baby Method), as well as promoting the concept of redemption to some extent, and also paints terrorism in an appropriately bad light, it at the same time is rife with anti-Americanism among both heroes and villains (although obviously not to the same extent as in later entries) as well as pushing an anti-nuclear and anti-war agenda, both of which seemed to focus more on America doing so than other countries, in particular Russia and China (specifically, the character Nastasha Romanenko, a member of NEST, spent most of her time condemning America for using nuclear weapons or even using nuclear power at all, and giving very little, if any criticism towards Russia and China for their having nukes, despite the fact that the event that caused her to hold a strong hatred for nukes, Chernobyl, having originated from within the Soviet bloc).
**''Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance'': The game does have anti-American elements per the standard of the ''Metal Gear'' franchise, with the main villain being an American politician who intended to jumpstart a war to restore America, and Raiden and Courtney also give slight references to Occupy Wall Street and their 1% rhetoric. On the other hand, it also condemns far-left ideologies such as Communism, in particular the Khmer Rouge, as one of the villains, Monsoon, was a survivor of the Khmer Rouge's genocidal actions in Cambodia, with his more villainous and amoral nature being directly derived from that event, and it also condemns nihilism via Monsoon as well. It also has a slight promotion of Capitalism, as one of Raiden's allies, a former East German scientist by the name of Wilhelm Voigt, and better known as Doktor, at one point says "Ich Liebus Capitalismus", which translated to "I Love Capitalism."

===Radical Games===
*''The Simpsons Hit and Run'': Although there are some liberal themes, such as Marge's crusade against Bonestorm-an implied violent video game-being depicted in a negative light, some characters engaging in lawlessness in a similar manner to ''Grand Theft Auto'', and one of the later chapters for the game having the main antagonists supply the townspeople with ray guns as well as tainted cola in a way that could be interpreted as supporting gun control, it also had several conservative messages, namely pro-family, as two of the chapters dealt with Lisa and Marge trying to find Bart after he went missing and trying to find out the cause behind his addled behavior, and later attempting to stop the production of Buzz Cola due to its effects on Bart, respectively, the first chapter and most of the game features a condemnation towards mass surveillance due to the presence of surveillance vans and wasp cameras and their being treated in a clear negative light, especially in a matter that isn't essential to stopping a threat, and is also anti-Hollywood values due to the main antagonists, aliens by the name of Kang and Kodos, deliberately trying to cause a ruckus in Springfield, including the aforementioned distribution of ray guns and tainted Buzz Cola to cause a shootout and later reanimating the dead via Buzz Cola, plus using the wasp cameras and surveillance vans all in an attempt to boost ratings of their reality show "Foolish Earthlings," which as the title implies deals with depicting various people of Earth, in particular Springfield, doing various stupid actions. Also has a rarity in the franchise where nuclear power is actually depicted in a positive light due to it ultimately being the only thing that stopped Kang and Kodos's alien invasion. There is also a humorous condemnation towards gun-free school zones, as during the same level that Bart has to stop the distribution of ray guns to the populace at Squidport, Principal Skinner explicitly references the no-gun policy among students at Springfield Elementary when confiscating Bart's ray gun, despite Bart making clear he only needed the gun to supply evidence towards an evil plot.

===Activision===
*Call of Duty 2: Like most entries in the franchise, it ultimately promotes American values and the military, as well as the British during World War II as well. However, at least one of the main campaigns depicts the Soviets in a positive manner due to it focusing on the Battle of Stalingrad.
*Call of Duty World at War: Like Call of Duty 2, it promotes the American military, but also has a Soviet campaign. Unlike COD 2, though, it portrays the Russians more realistically as cruel, brutal and merciless towards the Nazis. It also depicts a Russian Commissar encouraging this brutality. This game is one of the few World War II games to depict the Pacific War against Japan and the first mission accurately portrays the Japanese cruelty towards POWs. The events are also historically inaccurate as the Marines are depicted taking Shuri Castle, which was done by the Army, not the Marines.

===Bethesda Software===
*''The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim'': Inspired by conservative novels such as ''Lord of the Rings'', ''Beowulf'', and ''The Chronicles of Narnia'', this game in the ''Elder Scrolls'' series tells about the player being prophesized as a "Dragonborn" (a being with the body of a mortal and the soul of a dragon) to do battle with the dark dragon Alduin and delay the end of the world. In the midst of the crisis is an ongoing civil war between the rebel Stormcloaks led by Ulfric Stormcloak and the Imperial Legion. Like the other games in the series, this game has conservative messages just like them. Such messages include redemption and striving to do good when the great white dragon Paarthurnax is revealed to have once been Alduin's second-in-command but has since tamed his more savage nature to be at peace with the mysterious Greybeards and other humans, asking "What is better: to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" Both sides in the civil war have valid reasons for their actions: The Legion that is stationed in Skyrim wants a united empire to stand against the high elves, and the Stormcloaks want Skyrim to be more independent from the empire, similar to the colonists from the [[American Revolution]]. That said, however, it also engages in a few liberal themes, including an option for same-sex "marriages" and a promotion of feminism (including a high-ranking female "legates", the game's equivalent of a colonel, with the females being given a more masculine design).
*''Fallout 4'': Part of the apocalyptic ''Fallout'' series, the player (a soldier for a male character, a lawyer for a female character) is cryogenically frozen, witnessing his/her infant son being kidnapped. They awaken two hundred years later in post-apocalyptic Boston, Massachusetts (called the Commonwealth) and embark on a journey to find their son, joined by new friends and various factions. The game portrays friendship and other virtues like courage well, as shown with the well-meaning but harsh Brotherhood of Steel. The Minutemen - initially led by Preston Garvey - are shown to be altruistic patriots, ready to defend other people and preserve freedom for the Commonwealth; they even have a motto saying "Freedom at a minute's notice". Family is also promoted in several ways: The player is searching for their son who is kidnapped as a baby, reporter Piper Wright and her sister Nat work together as a team in journalism, and MacCready wanders the Commonwealth in search of a cure for his sick son. The player even has the choices of doing good, like defending settlements from attack or giving money or supplies to the needy, and several companions (including Piper and synth detective Nick Valentine) will praise the player for their good choices. However, the game does condemn nuclear weapons; even a companion named Deacon believes this about weapons of any kind: "Guns don't solve problems, they just create more". Players can even choose to be involved in a homosexual relationship with companions of the same sex, and a minor character and a Miss Nanny robot fall in love and marry. Like having the choice to do good, the player can also choose to do harmful things like murder or stealing, which other companions (like Courser X6-88 and super mutant Strong) will commend them for. The DLC called "Nuka World" (taking place in a soda-based amusement park) has the option of leading a violent band of raiders on a mission to subdue the Commonwealth; this, however, is also up to the player, who can wipe out the raiders instead.

===Nintendo===
*''Metroid: Other M:'' Although largely part of the Metroid series and retaining some of its more conservative elements (namely, the promotion of parenthood and condemning the concept of playing god), the game was rather infamous for several criticisms it experienced in the game, namely the characterization of Adam Malkovich and his relationship with Samus due to it coming across more as promoting an abusive relationship (such as Adam shooting Samus in the back before sacrificing himself). The game, unlike in the Prime series, also depicts the military in a more negative manner, as a flashback had Samus being restrained from turning her back on Adam despite her intention being to save Ian, his brother, from death, as well as one of the more controversial elements of the game being the authorization element which at one point has Adam failing to actually authorize the Varia Suit to allow Samus to traverse through a superheated area despite it nearly killing her until a long while afterward, and also had as its main plot a conspiracy to weaponized Metroids at the order of the Federation military (as well as having someone within Samus's group attempt to assassinate each of the members in order to silence them to any potential discoveries to the conspiracy in question via the character The Deleter).
*''Animal Crossing: New Leaf:'' Though it does replace holidays [[Christmas]] and [[Easter]] with the more politically correct "Toy Day" and "Bunny Day" respectfully (largely due to Nintendo of America's insistence on not listing Christmas and Easter by those names due to it having a ban on religious references), as well as some 'environmentally friendly' Public Works Projects (the latter of which are optional), the main ideals of ''Animal Crossing'' shine through, mainly the ideals of friendship, responsibility (since in this game, you become the mayor) and innocence are treated with respect. Shows [[capitalism]] in a positive light in Tom Nook, a kind-hearted (now-wealthy) raccoon (tanuki in original Japanese) who has opened Nook's Homes, leaving his store to his budding salesmen nephews, Timmy and Tommy (though some villagers theorise that they are not Tom Nook's nephews, instead believing them to be orphans that he adopted). Also shows [[marriage]] and family in a positive light, in characters Reese and Cyrus, a pair of married alpacas who run the Re-Tail recycling/refurbishing shop, and the Able Sisters clothing store, run by hedgehog sisters Mabel, Sable and Labelle, the latter of which has returned home after a bad fight with oldest sister Sable prior to the original game but has since come home, and the turtle (kappa in Japan) Kapp'n, a motorboat driver, who since the previous game married long-time sweetheart Leilani and they have a daughter named Leila. The mayor's secretary, Isabelle, an eager and positive shi-tsu, is also the antithesis to a modern [[feminist]], as well Lottie, a very feminine and sweet-natured otter employee of Nook's Homes (only shows up after the Welcome Amiibo update, however) That being said, however, in the Valentine's Day events, Isabelle can be depicted as having a crush on the player character regardless of gender (though said player is not allowed to pursue a relationship with her, or any other animal character for that matter), as well as the character of the fashionista giraffe Gracie, who while female in most translations of the game, is a effeminate male named Grace in the original Japanese. In addition, due to the options to create your own outfits and paintings, at least one person had created and showcased a T-shirt modeled after [[Che Guevara]].<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20141009074917/http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/51860/features/thank-kk-its-friday/?page=2</ref>

===Pterodon/Illusion Software===
*''Vietcong 2'': Although like its predecessor, it ultimately portrays American involvement in Vietnam as a positive, and depicts the Vietcong in the main story as the bad guys, there is an additional mode that features the player playing as the Vietcong and them being portrayed in a more positive manner.

===Ubisoft===
*Assassins Creed 3: The Assassins help the American Revolution by killing the Templar leaders of the British. However, a DLC came out for the game that has you kill all of the [[Founding Fathers]].
*''Far Cry 5'': Set in the Montana countryside, a deputy is tasked with bringing a violent cult to justice with help from the locals. One of the characters helping the player is a Christian pastor named Jerome Jeffries, who encourages his fellow churchgoers to have faith and not give in to the cult. Richard "Dutch" Roosevelt, another supporting character who tasks the player of uniting the citizens of Hope County against the cult, has a distrust for big government. The game also occasionally pokes fun at liberals and the left-wing agenda, as well as painting the [[Second Amendment]] in a positive light through the locals arming themselves to fight the cult. However, the villainous cult is Christian (though they could be considered not true Christians due to doing the opposite of what Jesus Christ had taught), while the previous game villains were more politically neutral: a psychotic pirate, an atheistic dictator, and a sun-worshiping chieftain.

===Square-Enix===
*''Final Fantasy II:'' In initial releases for the game, the game had an undeniably pro-Christian element to the games, and also condemned Satanic worshippers and totalitarianism in the form of the game's main villain Emperor Mateus Palamecia, who explicitly goes to Hell when he dies and tries to take over the world with the powers he gained from Hell. However, the remakes starting with the GBA version added in a new mode called "Dawn of Souls" which has the killed party members fighting against the Emperor's light half who took over Heaven, which could be interpreted as an anti-Christian message.
*''Final Fantasy VI:'' Promotes parenthood due to Terra Branford becoming a mother figure for the Mobliz orphans late into the game, which also had her learning the concept of love, and also showcases the horrors of totalitarian ideologies in the form of the Gestahlian Empire, and also offers a condemnation of [[nihilism]] in the form of the game's main antagonist Kefka Palazzo (who is depicted in a similar manner to [[Joker (comics)|the Joker]] from the Batman franchise). However, Terra also makes a more relativistic remark when trying to refute Kefka regarding finding meanings in things.
*''Final Fantasy VII:'' Promotes the concept of redemption and condemns unethical science in the form of Professor Hojo as well as his creation Sephiroth (who ironically is voiced in the English versions by George Newbern, who portrayed [[Superman]]), but on the other hand, it also has a more anti-Capitalist view on things with Shin-Ra, the main antagonists, being a corporation, and is hinted to promote environmentalism due to the main protagonists being eco-terrorists.

===Rockstar North===
*''Bully:'' Despite coming from the same developers ultra-liberal series ''Grand Theft Auto'' and ''Midnight Club'', this game can be seen to show the dangers of high school cliques as well as bullies. However, the game's main protagonist, Jimmy Hopkins, can be quite a jerk himself and still gets involved in fights with bullies and high school cliques. The game has also been criticized by conservatives because it is possible for the player to engage the protagonist in homosexual relationships.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.neoseeker.com/news/6237-bully-under-spotlight-for-homosexual-content/|title=Bully Under Spotlight For "Homosexual" Content|author=Leo Chan|date=2006-10-24|accessdate=2019-03-08|work=Neoseeker|publisher=Neo Era Media, Inc.}}</ref>
*''Red Dead Redemption'': In the last days of the Old West in 1911, former outlaw John Marston is tasked by a corrupt government official to hunt down his former gang members (Bill Williamson, Javier Esquella, and Dutch Van der Linde) in exchange for getting his wife and son back. The game promotes the importance of family in the form of John trying to work hard to be with his family again, even trying to spend time with his son Jack and saving him from a [[brown bear]]; there is also traditional marriage being upheld, for John will refuse to sleep with prostitutes and remains loyal to his wife Abigail. It condemns government corruption through main villain Edgar Ross, who wants all of John's former gang destroyed to get all the glory for it, to the point where he has his army kill John in spite of promising to leave the latter alone once his job is done and is even rewarded for it. It also promotes doing good like donating to a nunnery, helping people (ranging from rescuing people from gangs or wild animals to just fetching items for them), and doing jobs for them; heroism is even portrayed positively, as legendary gunslinger Landon Ricketts singlehandedly keeps peace in Chuparosa while repelling its enemies. However, the player also has the option of doing bad things like murder, theft, and robbery. There is even a hint of [[bestiality]] when a minor character marries his horse Lucy, though the main character is rightfully flabbergasted at the reveal that the man's lost love is a horse.
*''Red Dead Redemption 2'': Set 12 years before the events of ''Red Dead Redemption'', this prequel game explores how the Dutch Van Der Linde gang had fallen, in the point of view of Arthur Morgan, one of Dutch's righthand men. Over the course of the game, the gang changes in so many ways that makes Arthur think over his past and future choices as well as question Dutch's increasingly reckless decisions. As the title of the two games suggests, it promotes redemption in the form of Arthur helping John Marston and his family escape the collapsing gang at the cost of his own life (whether from succumbing to tuberculosis or being murdered by main villain Micah Bell, which depends on whether the player has high or low honor). [[Hunting]] is portrayed positively while [[poaching]] is negatively shown, the latter showing half black/half [[Native American]] Charles Smith being angered at the sight of two poachers leaving intact [[bison]] carcasses to rot and killing one of the poachers. Like the previous game, the game shows doing good deeds, heroism, and family (whether it be with the Marston family or most of the Dutch Van Der Linde gang) in a good light. However, also like the first game, the player have a choice of doing bad things like murder, theft, and robbery, as well as the protagonist being in a gang of infamous bandits even if the player gets high honor. Dutch himself is portrayed as an early communist, believing in redistributing wealth as they steal from the rich and give to the poor, based on the [[Jacobin]] version of [[Robin Hood]] as portrayed by [[Joseph Ritson]]. Feminism is also promoted in a way by the character of the widow Sadie Adler, who insists of doing more work than helping with cooking; it's further shown when she later fights off and kills three men at once on her own in spite of a physical disadvantage.

===id Software===
*''Doom:'' The game casts satanic demons and monsters as the villains (although like most media, it depicts demons inaccurately). However, the game is controversial for its extreme violence and satanic imagery.

==Debatable Whether Great==
===Multiple Parties===
*''Home Alone'': A video game adaptation of the greatest conservative film of the same name, retaining many of its themes. However, the NES game has poor graphics and shallow gameplay.
*''Home Alone 2: Lost in New York'': A video game adaptation of the greatest conservative film of the same name, and retains many of its themes. However, it takes many liberties with the source material and has very flawed game design.

'''Google''' is an Internet services company whose primary business is the collection and dissemination of information. However, they have become known for their political bias, as they continually slant the information they serve (particularly through their search engine and YouTube platform), in favor of [[leftist]] ideology. Their services include a [[monopoly|monopolistic]] [[search engine]] (which promotes something [[liberal]] nearly every day), a [[web browser]], webmaster tools, and [[Android (operating system)|phone operating system]]. Google is associated with liberal causes and has been criticized for manipulating search results,<ref>Nolan, Lucas (September 21, 2018). [https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/09/21/5-times-google-manipulated-search-youtube-and-news-results/ 5 Times Google Manipulated Search, YouTube, and News Results]. ''Breitbart News''. Retrieved September 21, 2018.</ref> along with catering to communist [[China]] in [[censorship|censoring]] information from the people as requested by the [[genocidal]] [[Communist Party of China]] from 2006 to 2010.<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4647398.stm</ref>

Google opposes diversity of opinion and virtually never features a [[conservative]] theme on its search page, and repeatedly promotes [[liberal]] themes instead. Google espouses [[Leftist]] political policies while underpaying its own workers and even creating a severe housing crisis in its community for low-income workers. Google also exploits [[H-1B visas]] in order to import foreigners to do engineering work, with less risk of the workers leaving for a competitor to Google. Google has been criticized for its election interference, its anti-American views and anti-Semitism.

Major competitors of Google include [[Yahoo!]], [[DuckDuckGo]], and Microsoft's [[Bing]].

== Corporate Information ==
The CEO of Google since 2001 was [[Eric Schmidt]]. He announced that he was stepping down as CEO in 2011. Google is headquartered in Mountain View, [[California]]. Google was founded on September 7, 1998, by [[Larry Page]] and [[Sergey Brin]]. Since then, it has grown to be the largest Internet search engine in the world. According to Alexa Internet, over 25% of all Internet users visit Google monthly.<ref>[http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?url=www.google.com Alexa Traffic Results for Google]</ref>

Google also owns [[YouTube]], the homemade [[video clip]] site. [[Viacom]] is suing YouTube, and thus Google, for a reported $1 billion, arguing that the economic model of YouTube is based on copyright infringement.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6446193.stm Viacom will sue YouTube for $1bn]</ref>

After much debate about their corporate Code of Conduct, Google's founders settled on the all-encompassing "Don't be evil", saying,"It's built around the recognition that everything we do in connection with our work at Google will be, and should be, measured against the highest possible standards".<ref>[http://investor.google.com/conduct.html Google Code of Conduct]</ref> This Code of Conduct has generated much criticism, saying they have missed that mark badly.

==History==
[[Image:Google2.gif|thumb|right|300px| Google's logo on [[Earth Day]], April 22, 2007.]]

===Founding===
Google was originally a research project, started by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1996, when the two attended [[Stanford University]]. The two registered the domain name ''google.stanford.edu'', and the small search engine went online for the first time.<ref>[http://www.google.com/intl/en/corporate/history.html Corporate Information:Google Milestones]</ref>

===Growth===
The year Google was created 1998, it had amassed 26 million unique URLs in their database. By 2000, Google had indexed more than 1 billion pages. As of July 2008, Google has indexed over 1 [[trillion]] pages. Its core service is usually referred to as Google Search.<ref>[http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-9999814-93.html Google reveals scope of Web-crawling task] CNET News, July 25, 2008</ref> Google Search was enhanced with a feature called Google Instant in 2010 which quickly displays suggested search works as the user types. This reveals how the search information is organized in a "semantic Web" and the degree to which is it understood beyond just simple string matching. This feature seems to be further enhanced by the semantic information in [[Knowledge Graph]].

===Competition===
[[Microsoft]] has been aggressively competing with Google for a larger share of the search market. Their latest effort, [[Bing]].com, is a "next generation" search service which has generated praise for its user interface and criticism for its speed and performance in comparison to Google and Yahoo.

Other potential competitors, such as [[Apple]], have chosen to keep Google as its default search provider. In return, Apple received $9 billion.<ref>[https://9to5mac.com/2018/09/28/google-paying-apple-9-billion-default-seach-engine/ Google reportedly paying Apple $9 billion to remain default search engine in Safari on iOS]</ref> That amount will increase to $12 billion in 2019.<ref>[http://fortune.com/2018/09/29/google-apple-safari-search-engine/ Google reportedly paying Apple $9 billion to remain default search engine in Safari on iOS]</ref>

==Antitrust lawsuit==
On October 20, 2020, [[Attorney General]] [[William P. Barr]] announced an [[antitrust]] action initiated by the [[Department of Justice]] (DOJ) under the [[Sherman Anti-Trust Act]] for Google's anti-competative practices. In the statement the DOJ said:
{{quotebox-float|As one of the wealthiest companies on the planet with a market value of $1 trillion, Google is the monopoly gatekeeper to the internet for billions of users and countless advertisers worldwide. For years, Google has accounted for almost 90 percent of all search queries in the United States and has used anticompetitive tactics to maintain and extend its monopolies in search and search advertising.

As alleged in the Complaint, Google has entered into a series of exclusionary agreements that collectively lock up the primary avenues through which users access search engines, and thus the Internet, by requiring that Google be set as the preset default general search engine on billions of mobile devices and computers worldwide and, in many cases, prohibiting preinstallation of a competitor. In particular, the Complaint alleges that Google has unlawfully maintained monopolies in search and search advertising by:

*Entering into exclusivity agreements that forbid preinstallation of any competing search service.
*Entering into tying and other arrangements that force preinstallation of its search applications in prime locations on mobile devices and make them undeletable, regardless of consumer preference.
*Entering into long-term agreements with Apple that require Google to be the default – and de facto exclusive – general search engine on Apple’s popular Safari browser and other Apple search tools.
*Generally using monopoly profits to buy preferential treatment for its search engine on devices, web browsers, and other search access points, creating a continuous and self-reinforcing cycle of monopolization.<ref>https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-sues-monopolist-google-violating-antitrust-laws</ref>}}

==Secular Progressive Culture==
Google's West Coast headquarters hires a majority of left-leaning personalities, explicitly in executive decision-making.<ref>See [http://www.google.com/corporate/execs.html] for a list of board members and senior staff.</ref> Google supports causes that are a radical departure from traditional American views, such as their public support of a 'no' vote for [[California]]'s [[Proposition 8]], which defined marriage as being between a husband and wife. Also in a subtle way, they favor politically-correct global liberalism, championed by secular progressives. They select certain ''days of importance'' for tribute, some of which are controversial. As such, ''Merry Christmas'' is replaced by ''Happy Holidays''. Even though, poll <ref>[http://www.prweb.com/releases/2008/11/prweb1670824.htm Wish Me A Merry Christmas Campaign Crusades to Change Retail Culture] PRWeb, November 26, 2008</ref> after poll <ref>[http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/lifestyle/general_lifestyle/68_prefer_merry_christmas_to_happy_holidays 68% Prefer “Merry Christmas” to “Happy Holidays”] Rasmussen, November 27, 2008</ref> after poll <ref>[https://www.cnn.com/2005/US/12/20/poll.season/ Poll: More Americans prefer 'Merry Christmas' greeting] CNN, December 20, 2005</ref> shows the public prefers 'Merry Christmas'. The problem may be that Google doesn't respect traditional [[Christian]] holidays, in favor of a 'culturally-correct' approach. In addition, Google accepts the [[Theory of Evolution]] by [[Charles Darwin]] as fact, promotes Darwin on their homepage with a Google Doodle logo.<ref>[Scientists unveil fossil of Darwinius masillae]</ref>

Google often honors Russia with their logo of Sputnik and for composer Igor Stravinsky. Google based their [[United States Independence Day]] logo on ‘This Land Is Your Land’ as an ode to leftism.

=== Google versus Anti- Obama Blogs ===
The question immediately raised, "Did Google Silence [[Barack Obama]] critics?" It turns out, no they did not. A group of separate blogs were targeted by their spam filter as a result of manipulating the 'flag' feature. This caused a temporary blockage for five days. Sites affected were Hillary supporters and all anti-Obama. They include http://bluelyon.blogspot.com, http://comealongway.blogspot.com, http://hillaryorbust.blogspot.com and http://mccaindemocrats.blogspot.com and their main associate JustSayNoDeal.com <ref>[http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/06/30/google-and-the-anti-obama-bloggers/ Google and the Anti-Obama Bloggers] NYTimes June 30, 2008</ref>

=== Google sensitive to Islam ===
In 2010, it was noted that Google's search suggestions for the world's various religions would bring up many negative results for [[Christianity]], Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism. Typing a search for "Christianity is..." the results would be "Christianity is a lie," or "Judaism is..." would be "Judaism is a cult." Google removed negative search suggestions when typing "Islam is...",<ref>[http://thenextweb.com/2010/01/05/google-blocking-negative-search-recommendations-islam/ Google Blocking Negative Search Recommendations On Islam – Why?, The Next Web, May 1, 2010]</ref> however it seems that Google has reverted this, as the current first suggestion when typing "islam is..." is "Islam is evil".

=== Google versus Vladimir Putin ===

===Google and anti-Semitism===
According to the ''[[Washington Free Beacon]]'',<ref>https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/google-sanctions-use-of-anti-semitic-slogan/</ref> Google’s human resources department allows an employee’s use of the phrase "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free," the call-to-arms frequently employed by anti-Israel activists. The company's determination came after a Jewish employee raised concerns about the anti-Semitic slogan by a top Google union official on an internal company profile. "The Googler who shared this phrase on his page did so as a show of solidarity with the Palestinian community, which Googlers are permitted to do in the workplace," the human resources employee wrote in an email response to the Jewish employee’s complaint. "While the phrase used is understandably divisive, it was not intended to be anti-Semitic in the way the author used it."

A political slogan used by Palestinian nationalists and terrorist groups like the [[Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine]], "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" describes an aspirational Palestinian state that would extend from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, eliminating the state of Israel. [[PLO]] chairman [[Ahmad Shukairy]] made sure he really meant his genocidal calls and only realizing the PR disaster and military defeat of '67 is when the following PLO, [[Yasir Arafat]] tried to camouflage its real aims - progressives admitted that ''This once even the Right could be Right'': <ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=k5eyAAAAIAAJ&q=%22shukairy%22 In Search of Facts, Ideas and Challenges], Vol. 5, Iss. 80.

...professing its genocidal ambition openly, without hiding it in any disguise whatever. Its leader, Ahmed Shukairy, kept making a point of it that the Arabs were absolutely literal when speaking of pushing the Israelis into the sea. Following the military disaster Israel that year inflicted on the Arabs, they were internationally overheard discussing the public relations error of their past genocidal candor. Heads of Arab states and Palestinian leaders were voicing this tactical self-criticism in newspaper interviews and articles, in radio and television broadcasts, in speeches before parliaments.

The adjustments made in the aftermath of this self-criticism included the replacement of the undiplomatic Ahmed Shukairy with the highly diplomatic Yassir Arafat as leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization . Also included was a new semantic formula which, incorporated in the Charter of the PLO, for the first time provided however thin and tortuous a camouflage of the genocidal ambition. What used up until that point to be loudly and proudly advertised was now being pro forma denied whenever necessary, accompanied by a meaningful wink of an eyelid.

Google’s determination comes as the tech giant faces outrage and scrutiny from Jewish employees and Jewish organizations for its silence in the wake of a ''Free Beacon'' report on an anti-Semitic blog post authored by a top member of the Google diversity team.<ref>https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/google-diversity-head-said-jews-have-insatiable-appetite-for-war/</ref> The [[Simon Wiesenthal|Somin Wiesenthal Center]] began an online ad campaign slamming Google for its "failure to address anti-Semitism in its workplace."

== Google bombing ==
Perhaps the most innovative contribution Google has made to Internet searching is its '''PageRank''' algorithm. This system works by counting the number of sites that link to another site; the more links pointing to a page, the higher that page will be ranked. The engine also takes note of how often the page is updated. Due to this, [[Wikipedia®]] is consistently ranked very highly by Google, due to its constant updating and heavy linkage. More recently, Internet-savvy Googlers have discovered ways to game the system; creating massive numbers of pages with links pointing to one page to form what is known as a "Google Bomb". Some examples can be found below.<ref>[http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20040614/news_mz1b14google.html Dropping 'Google-bombs']</ref>

*'''"Miserable Failure"''': For nearly two years, typing "miserable failure" (or even just "miserable", or "failure") and then clicking "I'm Feeling Lucky" in the Google search engine would return the [https://www.whitehouse.gov/president/biography.html White House Biography] of [[George W.

However, at times, [[Conservative]] supporters were able to shift the phrase to [[Jimmy Carter]], [[Hillary Clinton]] and [[Michael Moore]].
*''''"Great President"''': returns the [https://www.whitehouse.gov/president/biography.html White House Biography] of [[George W. Bush]].
*'''"Jew"''': The first result used to be the home page for "Jew Watch", a racist, anti-Semitic hate group. As of September 2012, Jew Watch is the 4th result, although it has now shown even lower in the result list.
*'''"Waffles"''': Also as part of the 2004 Presidential election, Conservative supporters managed to link the term "waffles" to the official Web site of [[John Kerry]].
*'''"French Military Victories"''': Hitting "I'm Feeling Lucky" for this term directs you to a fake Google page (in reality, it is an AlbinoBlackSheep.com page, styled to look exactly like a Google page, [http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/text/victories.html here]) giving no matches, and asking if you meant "French military defeats?".
*'''"Weapons of Mass Destruction"''' would bring up a similar page with the error message 'not found.'
*'''"[Rick] Santorum"''': Homosexual activist [[Dan Savage]] created a Web site with an obscene definition for the word "santorum" because politician [[Rick Santorum]] opposes same-sex marriage. This page was number one on Google for several years when people searched for his last name (and at times, his full name as well). Once Santorum began to campaign for President, his campaign Web site eventually made it up to the top spot, but as of September 2012, the [[Wikipedia]] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campaign_for_%22santorum%22_neologism page] about Savage's actions is currently the top result, followed by the Wikipedia page for Santorum. Savage's site has fallen to the third spot. Santorum's presidential campaign Web site has fallen to number four, since Santorum is no longer in the race.

=== Tax Dodging ===
A report by Bloomberg News has Google setting up offshore banks accounts to avoid paying taxes on foreign profits. More than $3.9 billion have made it to [[Bermuda]] bank accounts over the last several years. Google has cut its effective tax rate abroad to just 2.4%. The practice is common and [[George Soros]] has been known to place his billions of dollars in Cayman Island banks. This costs the U.S. government more than $60 billion in revenue.<ref>[https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/beltway-confidential/After-news-of-Google-tax-dodges-Obama-raises-money-with-Google-execs-105513473.html#ixzz13LE2lg1F After news of Google tax dodges, Obama raises money with Google execs, Washington Examiner, October 22, 2010]</ref>

=== Privacy Concerns===
Google has been criticized by privacy activists and others. Google chief executive Eric Schmidt said, "We cannot even answer the most basic questions because we don’t know enough about you. That is the most important aspect of Google’s expansion." <ref>http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/c3e49548-088e-11dc-b11e-000b5df10621,dwp_uuid=e8477cc4-c820-11db-b0dc-000b5df10621.html</ref> Google has attempted to "remedy" this situation by storing search information, in effect, keeping tabs on people for two years after they search. This has led Google critic [[Daniel Brandt]] to create "Scroogle.org", which runs Google searches that users conduct through his organization's personal servers to prevent Google from being able to connect any personal information to the searchers.<ref>http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=55935</ref> 

A number of other privacy concerns have arisen, including the disclosure of Google's Sensorvault database in 2019. This database reportedly contains extensive records of GPS locations on almost all Android devices. This is an extensive record of every precise location almost every individual device has ever been. This wealth of information reveals many aspects of each owner's behavior, interests, and overall lifestyle. Sensorvault has also reportedly been utilized by law enforcement to find behavioral correlations of devices, then acquire the identity information of certain users of special interest. It is unclear exactly to what extend Google (and [[Alphabet Inc.]]) have been selling/sharing access to this data, or analytical conclusion from it.<ref>https://www.eff.org/es/deeplinks/2019/04/googles-sensorvault-can-tell-police-where-youve-been</ref><ref>https://www.cnet.com/news/law-enforcement-taps-googles-sensorvault-for-location-data-report-says/</ref><ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/13/technology/google-sensorvault-location-tracking.html</ref>

As noted above, Professor Epstein in his testimony before the Judiciary Senate Committee stated that his research indicated that Google had manipulated the votes for the 2016 presidential elections in Hillary Clinton's favor, and also had been manipulating national elections as early as 2015, and has even insinuated that they had also manipulated the results of the 2018 midterm elections.<ref name="Epstein testimony PDF" /><ref name="Epstein testimony YouTube" />

====FEC disclosure exemptions====
Political advertising regarding federal elections and candidates that is purchased for appearance on radio, television and print generally must adhere to [[Federal Election Commission]] rules requiring clear disclosure of the committee or donor paying for the advertisements. During 2011, Google and [[Facebook]] hired [[Marxist]] operative [[Marc Elias]] to help them obtain an exemption from this requirement for political advertising on their platforms. Elias argued the restrictions were not practical for his clients, with FEC commissioners ultimately voting 4-2 in favor of the exemption for Google and deadlocking 3-3 on the request regarding Facebook.<ref>Vogel, Kenneth P.; and Kang, Cecilia. [https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/19/us/politics/facebook-google-russia-meddling-disclosure.html “Senators Demand Online Ad Disclosures as Tech Lobby Mobilizes.”] New York Times. October 19, 2017.</ref>

Facebook continued to operate as if exempt from disclosure rules. During the 2016 U.S. general election, $100,000 worth of Russian-backed and undisclosed advertisements intended to influence voters were purchased on Facebook with another $4,700 spent by Russian sources on Google political advertisements. In October 2017, following the controversy that ensued regarding Russian interference in the 2016 elections, both Republican and Democratic Senators advocated for legislation to require Facebook and Google to adhere to the same disclosure rules as other media.

On July 19, 2019, Professor Robert Epstein revealed before the Judiciary Senate Committee that Google was responsible for swaying 2.6 million people into voting for Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential elections, and had also implied that the amount of people swayed may have been as many as 10.4 million votes, and may have even been trying to influence national elections as early as 2015.<ref name="Epstein testimony PDF">https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Epstein%20Testimony.pdf</ref><ref name="Epstein testimony YouTube">https://youtu.be/IzF7nBmwPso</ref>

====2020 election meddling====
:{{See also|United States presidential election, 2020|Tulsi Gabbard 2020 presidential campaign}}
[[Tulsi Gabbard]] is suing Google for $50 million for [[censorship]] of her campaign ads.<ref>https://thehill.com/policy/technology/454746-tulsi-gabbard-sues-google-over-censorship-claims</ref> Google blocked her ads account shortly after the first Democrat presidential debate, when Gabbard became the most-searched-for candidate in the Democrat field.

Gabbard's complaint accuses Google of censoring the candidate at the very moment when millions of Americans wanted to learn more about her. It also accuses Google of sending Gabbard's campaign emails to people's Gmail spam folders at a “disproportionately high rate.” The campaign seeks a legal injunction against Google to prevent further election meddling, as well as $50 million in damages. According to Gabbard's legal complaint against Google:

{{Quotebox|At the height of Gabbard’s popularity among Internet searchers in the immediate hours after the debate ended, and in the thick of the critical post-debate period (when television viewers, radio listeners, newspaper read-ers, and millions of other Americans are discussing and searching for presidential candidates), Google suspended Tulsi’s Google Ads account without warning. For hours, as millions of Americans searched Google for information about Tulsi, and as Tulsi was trying, through Google, to speak to them, her Google Ads account was arbitrarily and forcibly taken offline. Throughout this period, the Campaign worked frantically to gather more information about the suspension; to get through to someone at Google who could get the Account back online; and to understand and remedy the restraint that had been placed on Tulsi’s speech—at precisely the moment when everyone wanted to hear from her.}}

The legal complaint argues that Google could have a nefarious impact on American democracy if its behavior is allowed to continue unchecked. This is the viewpoint of Dr. Robert Epstein, who says the Silicon Valley Masters of the Universe will “go all out” to influence the 2020 election.

In a series of Tweets, the Hawaii Democrat said Google's actions “reveals the danger of their dominance & how the dominance of big tech over public discourse threatens core American values.”<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2019/07/25/tulsi-gabbard-sues-google-for-censorship-of-ads/</ref>

After Hillary's Clinton's xenophobic smear, [[Steven Crowder]] demonstrated during his radio program how Google was actively suppressing Tulsi Gabbard search results in the United States.<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/political/tulsis-youtube-suppressed</ref>

===Interference with Trump presidency===
Owing to all of the above, Google has been accused of trying to stifle conservative voices (especially those that support Trump) and only allowing for left-wing viewpoints to be shown on the search engine. Although Google twice denied these claims, this was eventually confirmed on September 12, 2018, via a leaked video via Breitbart for the TGIF session immediately after Donald Trump's election, where the upper management not only made their views of the American public clear by inferring that those who voted for Donald Trump were "fascists and communists", but also strongly implied that they were going to dedicate all of their resources to making sure the rise of populism is squashed.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRf9UxsM-NE&feature=youtu.be</ref><ref>Bokhari, Allum (September 12, 2018).

On a similar note, Professor Epstein when giving testimony towards Google's efforts in overturning elections mentioned that, aside from its aforementioned role in manipulating votes in Hillary Clinton's favor, it also may have been responsible for the manipulation of as many as 78 million votes during the 2018 midterm elections, and has also implied that they are using their autocomplete programs for their products as a form of social engineering.<ref name="Epstein testimony PDF" /><ref name="Epstein testimony YouTube" />

=== Relationship with the Obama Administration ===
Consumer Watchdog crafted a 32-page report detailing how Google has inappropriately benefited from its close ties to the Obama Administration. [[NASA]]'s Moffett Airfield has been turned into a taxpayer-subsidized private airport for Google executives used for corporate junkets. NASA's Moffett Airfield is a short distance from Google's world headquarters. The report details, ''"A growing fleet of jets and helicopters stand ready to ferry the company's top executives near or far, for business or pleasure, for vacations or schmoozing, including at least three wintertime trips to the [[Caribbean]] and a trip by Google chief executive Eric Schmidt to the Cannes Film Festival."'' <ref>[http://www.redorbit.com/news/technology/1983792/consumer_watchdog_sends_issas_oversight_committee_google_report_showing_inappropriate/index.html Consumer Watchdog Sends Issa's Oversight Committee Google Report Showing Inappropriate Relationship with Obama Administration, RedOrbit.com, January 24, 2011]</ref>

====Attempted regime change in Syria====
Google collaborated with the Obama regime in the attempted [[regime change]] in [[Syria]]. Jared Cohen, head of Google Jigsaw (formerly Google Ideas) emailed the State Dept.:
{{quotebox-float|"Please keep close hold, but my team is planning to launch a tool on Sunday that will publicly track and map the defections in Syria and which parts of the government they are coming from. Our logic behind this is that while many people are tracking the atrocities, nobody is visually representing and mapping the defections, which we believe are important in encouraging more to defect and giving confidence to the opposition. Given how hard it is to get information into Syria right now, we are partnering with Al-Jazeera who will take primary ownership over the tool we have built, track the data, verify it, and broadcast it back into Syria. I've attached a few visuals that show what the tool will look like. Please keep this very close hold and let me know if there is anything eke you think we need to account for or think about before we launch. We believe this can have an important.<ref>https://wikileaks.org/clinton-emails/emailid/12166</ref>}}

===Homosexual agenda===
As was already mentioned, Google has been actively blocking certain websites and services which oppose sodomy (homosexuality). They also speak out in support of the homosexual movement, and promote search results which do the same.<ref>https://blog.google/topics/causes-community/transvoices</ref><ref>https://money.cnn.com/2012/07/08/technology/google-legalize-love/index.htm</ref><ref>https://winteryknight.com/2012/07/09/google-starts-wordlwide-campaign-to-legalize-gay-marriage-target-donates-to-gay-rights-groups</ref><ref>https://onetoday.google.com</ref> They also donate to some other organizations which do the same, as well and politicians who seek the same goal.<ref>http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/our-position-on-californias-no-on-8.html , Our position on California's No on 8 campaign</ref>

Google considers the term "family friendly" to be "[[homophobic]]."<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--3oGtllMXY&feature=youtu.be</ref> On June 21, 2009, Google displayed a special multicolored line for searches on the word "gay". Additionally, Google compensates employees to cover taxes paid on their domestic partner's health benefits, but only offers its 'generosity' to homosexual couples.<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/07/01/google-raises-eyebrows-new-gay-employee-benefit/</ref>

===Collaboration with China===
It was revealed in 2018 that Google was collaborating with China and supported the government's [[censorship]] agenda.<ref>Nash, Charlie (October 10, 2018). [https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/10/10/googes-shift-towards-censorship-aids-relationship-with-china/ Google’s ‘Shift Towards Censorship’ Aids Relationship with China]. ''Breitbart News''. Retrieved October 10, 2018.</ref>

Reporters Without Borders joined others in asking how Google could stand up for US users' freedoms while controlling what Chinese users can search for. Its previous search engine for China's fast-growing market was subject to government blocks. The new site - Google.cn - censors itself to satisfy Beijing. While cooperating with China's government, Google refuses to fulfill requests by the U.S. Department of Justice.<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4630694.stm , BBC Google defies US over search data, January 20, 2006</ref> Google counsel Nicole Wong said "..we intend to resist their motion vigorously."

===Opposing industry standards===
In addition to their political activities, Google has caused some controversy within its own industry by refusing to comply with industry standards. Since they own the most popular web browser and the most popular search engine (at least within the US), they have decided that they can bring about changes they believe are needed despite what the rest of the industry has decided. 
For example, the norm is that users are only logged into a service when they request it, and when they attempt to delete the cookies in their browser, the browser does so. However, Google decided in 2018 to automatically log users into their google accounts, and protect the google cookies from deletion, so that Google's cookies could not be deleted by the user (through the browser).<ref>https://www.wired.com/story/google-chrome-login-privacy/</ref><ref>https://www.theverge.com/2018/9/24/17895536/google-chrome-69-log-in-sync-password-user-data-privacy</ref> 
As another example, Google search was changed in 2018 to hide certain subdomains, including the "www" which many websites use. Users only would see the domain name and the [[TLD]], while the rest was masked. Further, the search engine would link users to sites which were using the "www" subdomain without that subdomain, so the site would need to redirect users to the proper location. Google knew this was not what the sites wanted, but chose to make this change anyway.<ref>https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/google-security-risk-hiding-subdomains/</ref><ref>https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/google/google-testing-removal-of-www-subdomain-from-search-results/</ref><ref>https://technocodex.com/google-removed-www-and-m-subdomains-in-chrome-69-how-to-disable-it/</ref> Not only is this inconvenient, but masking parts of URLs in inherently dangerous, since attackers can abuse such features to trick users into trusting a fraudulent site or page. The industry standard is, therefore, to show users the entire link which they have used to connect. 
Also in 2018, Google decided to make an additional change. They began trying to force websites to begin using the [[HTTPS|Hyper-text transfer protocol secure (HTTPS)]] rather than the older standard HTTP. While HTTPS is helpful, some webpages have reason to not use HTTPS. While the industry is moving slowly to HTTPS, Google decided to begin interfering with the loading and interaction in Chrome of sites which are not using HTTPS for their pages and all of the content therein. This caused many users to experience problems visiting websites, simply because Google no longer approved of sites using HTTP.

===Wi-Fi Snooping===
Google collected information from [[Wi-Fi]] networks as its street-view vans cruised neighborhoods around the globe, raising issues in more than 30 countries. The information Google gathered included e-mail fragments and passwords, alarming politicians and privacy and security advocates in Germany, France, and [[Spain]].<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/07/22/national-security-google-wi-fi-spy-scandal/ Is National Security Behind Google's Wi-Fi Spying?, Fox News, July 23, 2010]</ref> It was noted that Google supplies special mapping and search products to the U.S. military and intelligence community, with some Google employees enjoying Top Secret clearance to work with the government. Google said it was "accidental" data gathering. Rep. Joe Barton of Texas, a senior [[Republican]] lawmaker, suggested that Google's data collection wasn't accidental and that it was "something to look at." Under the Democrat leadership, the [[FCC]] investigated, but dropped further inquiry, coincidentally, just before a Google [[Democrat]] fundraiser was held. Many groups have been calling on Republican [[Darrell Issa]] to investigate Google's cozy relationship with the [[Obama administration]].<ref>[http://www.nlpc.org/stories/2010/11/10/congress-must-investigate-google-obama-ties Congress Must Investigate Google-Obama Ties, National Legal and Policy Center, November 10, 2010]</ref>

===Support for Antifa and Black Lives Matter===
In June 2020, Google was listed as one of numerous leftist-controlled companies that have gone "[[woke]]" and now support the criminal rioters of [[Antifa]] and [[Black Lives Matter]] in the wake of the [[2020 leftist riots]].<ref>[https://gab.com/a/posts/104311289660016704 Here Are The Companies That Support Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and Want You Dead] at Gab.com</ref>

Seattle Google engineer, Zachary Ames Trudo, was arrested at the [[Portland, Oregon]] Antifa riot. The 32-year-old [[Marxist]] was charged with [[assault]], attempting escape and resisting arrest. Trudo posted on [[Facebook]], "One way to hurt the [[bourgeoisie]] is to hurt their business. Closing down the ports is a terrific show of solidarity between labour and BLM.”<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/07/burn-ground-marxist-google-engineer-arrested-portland-riot-charged-assault-resisting-arrest-attempting-escape/</ref>

==International Agitation==
Google's Map service is responsible for escalating tensions between foreign nations by radically misleading versions of current borders.

Google has been labeled "professionally irresponsible" for disseminated [[Cambodia]] territory, which is embroiled in a bitter diplomatic row with Thailand over the demarcation of the frontier.<ref>[https://www.reuters.com/article/2010/02/05/cambodia-google-idUSSGE61406G20100205 Cambodia blasts Google map of disputed Thai border, Reuters, February 5, 2010]</ref>

[[Costa Rica]] took offense to Google Maps version showing that a specific area of encampment was on Nicaraguan soil. The dispute that had ensued over Google's version of the Nicaragua-Costa Rica border has became rather serious. So much so that the secretary general of the [[Organization of American States]] had to intervene.<ref>[http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-20021977-71.html Envoy to solve latest Google Maps border dispute?

===Egyptian Uprising===
Google executive Wael Ghonim helped with protesting [[Egypt]]'s rule of [[Hosni Mubarak]], calling for him to step down and organizing protests. He was detained by authorities and released after two weeks. Ghonim is credited as being a major factor in sparking Egypt's uprising. Google CEO Eric Schmidt said that Google is "very, very proud" of Wael Ghonim.<ref>[http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2011/02/google-ceo-eric-schmidt-says-company-is-proud-of-wael-ghonim-in-egypt.html Google CEO Eric Schmidt says company is 'very proud' of Egypt's Wael Ghonim, LA Times, February 15, 2011]</ref>

=== Benghazi massacre ===
After the [[Benghazi attack]], Hillary's State Department was in contact with Google. Hillary publicly claimed a controversial video was the source of a 'spontaneous' riot which proved to be a knowingly false statement. Google participated in the ruse by agreeing to block the video even after President Obama admitted it was a pre-planned terrorist attack. Copies of the email were forwarded to [[Denis McDonough]], [[Cheryl Mills]], Patrick F Kennedy, [[Jake Sullivan]] and [[John Brennan]]. The email also contains contact information for Google CEO Afternoon (Larry) Page and [[YouTube]] CEO Salar Kamangar including their mobile and office phone numbers.<ref>[https://wikileaks.org/clinton-emails/emailid/16800 UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2015-04841 Doc No. C05739829 STATE DEPT]. wikileaks.org</ref>

== Re: Liberal Ninth Circuit suspends Bill of Rights ==

Regarding the addition of that news item in the Main Page right column, it should have been worded as "Liberal Ninth Circuit ''illegally'' suspends Bill of Rights", as the actions of the liberal judges in that decision are purely politically motivated (while also attempting to read things into the Constitution that are not there and have never been) and, as with any other liberal activist judge, they're attempting to use powers they do not have (i.e. legislating from the bench) and have no right to use in the first place. Given the history of bad decisions by the 9th Circuit (and its corresponding reputation of being the most-overturned circuit in the judicial branch), their illegal decision will not stand and you can bet that President Trump will weigh in on this (with especially strong rebukes for Nguyen and Silverman, the black-robed shysters who wrote the majority opinion).

"'''Religion'''" refers to a set of core beliefs upon which people base their lives, usually involving a deep personal commitment, dedication, devotion, even variant degrees of '''[[worship]]''', emotionally and mentally, of something or someone, which may or may not be a [[Other gods|deity]], or even [[God]] the [[Trinity|Holy Trinity]].

For [[Christians]], the Bible teaches the triune nature of man, and Jesus said the greatest commandment in the Old Testament was to love God with all your heart, all your [[mind]] and all your [[soul]]. The Christian religion employs the use of [[logic]] and [[faith]]. Morality has often historically been based on religion, but many movements such as the [[secular humanism|secular humanists]] hold that morality does not depend on religion, and secular views of morality have existed as far back as ancient Greece.<ref>Humanism A new Religion. Simon and Schuster. pp. 64–69.</ref>

== Criticism of classifying [[Christianity]] as a species of genus religion ==
There are scholars like [[Visser't Hooft]] who resist the notion of [[Christianity]] as a ''"species of the [[genus]] religion."'' He argues that Christianity is an ''"adequate and definitive [[Revelation (religion)|revelation]] of [[God]] in history,"'' that classifying Christianity as one expression of ''"a general phenomenon called religion is to set it in a framework which is foreign to its nature."'' In differentiating the world religions from the world of revelation, Jean Danielou says, ''"The worst misunderstanding of Christianity or of [[Judaism]] is to make them religions among other religions — the very error of [[syncretism]]."''<ref name="Christopaganism">{{cite book

}}</ref> Wilhelm Busch, a member of the Confessing Church during the era of [[Nazism]], maintained that religions are human attempts to find [[God]] and they all have this in common: they have all gone astray in the fog and have not been able to discover God. The Jewish prophet Isaiah, according to Busch, understood that God is a hidden God, and that is why Isaiah cried out: ''"We cannot reach you. Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down."''

Then, further in verse 5, people are advised: "''Don’t be afraid of them because they can do no harm, nor can they do any good''."<ref>{{cite web |title=Jeremiah 10:3 |url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Jeremiah+10%3A3&version=GNT |accessdate=31 Jul 2018}}</ref>

== Definition of religion ==

Beyond this general definition, the word "religion" is used in several ways:

* '''Formal definition''': "The service and worship of [[God]] or the [[supernatural]];"<ref>[http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=religion "Religion"] in Merriam Webster dictionary.</ref> Under this definition, [[atheism]], [[agnosticism]], and [[secular humanism]] are not "religions.".<ref>Religious Groups Participating in Religious Congregations & Membership Study 2000. [http://www.thearda.com/mapsReports/reports/alldenoms.asp]</ref>
* '''Functional definition''': "A cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith"<ref>[http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=religion "Religion"] in Merriam Webster dictionary.</ref> By this definition, non-theistic belief systems such as [[atheism]], [[humanism]], and [[agnosticism]] could be considered religions. Indeed, the Supreme Court of the [[United States of America]] has acknowledged that "religion" does not need to include a belief in a god or gods, and included Secular Humanism as an example of a non-theistic religion.<ref>"Among religions in this country which do not teach what would generally be considered a belief in the existence of God, are Buddhism, Taoism, Ethical Culture, Secular Humanism, and others.".

* '''Organisational definition''': Under this definition, the term refers to a particular religious organisation or movement, such as [[Roman Catholic|Catholicism]], [[Methodist|Methodism]], or [[Lutheran]]ism. These groups generally consist of a central creed or body of beliefs, an ethical component (i.e. a code of morals), a body of literature or holy texts or stories, and a set of individual and communal practices. Under this definition, a person might say, "I'm not religious, because I don't go to church—but I believe in God."
* '''Practical definition''': Under this definition, the term refers to a set of practices, rites, or rituals observed by followers. Under this definition, a person might say, "I'm not religious, because I'm not into rituals. My relationship with God is enough."

== Ninian Smart's scheme for determining what is a religion ==

Roderick Ninian Smart, a Scottish writer and professor, defined a seven-part scheme of understanding both religious and secular worldviews.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=14j2UrLCi64C&pg=PA130&lpg=PA130&dq=ninian+smart+narrative&source=bl&ots=Hq3WwG_mVT&sig=j-8FpwSdqohURYodSdcl46erSJY&hl=en&sa=X&ei=FgybT6zxIc-_gAe864X6Dg&ved=0CCoQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=ninian%20smart%20narrative&f=false Dimensions of the Sacred, page 2]</ref> These can be understood as narrative, experiential, social, ethical, doctrinal, ritual and material.

English Pastor Daniel Smartt defines atheism as a religion, using Ninian Smart's seven dimensions of worldview as a list of criteria. It is not necessary in Smartt's model for every one of these to be present in order for something to be a religion.<ref>[http://www.helium.com/items/1227784-atheism-religion-naturalism-morally-relative "Atheism vs Religion"], Daniel Smartt</ref>

*''Narrative'' - this dimension is concerned with stories which explain the origin of the universe and the human life. For Christians, there is the Book of Genesis.

*''Experiential'' - this dimension is concerned with personal or spiritual experiences. Many religious believers report experiences of being near to God.

*''Social'' - the social dimension of religion is concerned with religious leadership and community in congregations.

*''Ethical'' - this dimension is concerned with the ethical teachings of a religion. See: [[Religion and morality]]

*''Doctrinal'' - this dimension is concerned with the philosophical teachings of a religion, its claims about the ultimate nature of reality.

*''Ritual''<ref>[https://creation.com/atheism-a-religion "Atheism: A religion"], Daniel Smartt, Creation.com</ref> - this dimension is concerned with rituals, the celebration of rites, ceremonies or festivals.

*''Material''<ref>[https://creation.com/atheism-a-religion "Atheism: A religion"], Daniel Smartt, Creation.com</ref> - this dimension is concerned with the physical artifacts of a religion, such as buildings, monuments, art, etc., and with physical places considered sacred.

{{cquote|I argue that 97% of the world's population growth is taking place in the developing world, where 95% of people are religious.

On the other hand, the secular West and East Asia has very low fertility and a rapidly aging population... In the coming decades, the developed world's demand for workers to pay its pensions and work in its service sector will soar alongside the booming supply of young people in the third world. Ergo, we can expect significant immigration to the secular West which will import religious revival on the back of ethnic change. In addition, those with religious beliefs tend to have higher birth rates than the secular population, with fundamentalists having far larger families. The epicentre of these trends will be in immigration gateway cities like New York (a third white), Amsterdam (half Dutch), Los Angeles (28% white), and London, 45% white British.

== List of religions ==
Religions can be classified according to how many gods the religion recognises.
=== Monotheistic religions ===

Monotheistic ("one god") religions are followed by just over half of the world's population.<ref>http://www.adherents.com/Religions_By_Adherents.html</ref>

* [[Bahai|Bahá'í]]
* [[Christianity]]
* [[Messianic Judaism]]
* [[Islam]]
* [[Jehovah's Witnesses]]
* [[Judaism]]
* [[Rastafari movement]]
* [[Sikhism]]
* [[Zoroastrianism]]

=== Transtheistic religions ===
* [[Jainism]]

=== Polytheistic religions ===
Polytheistic ("many gods") religions believe in and worship multiple gods or spirits or other supernatural beings. Polytheism has declined since the rise of Christianity, but has seen a recent resurgence among pagan cults in developed nations.

* [[Cao Dai]]
* [[Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints|Mormonism]]
* [[Paganism]]

* [[Shamanism]]
* [[Shinto]]
* [[Wicca]]

=== Pantheistic religions ===
Pantheistic ("all is god") religions believe that all of creation or nature is divine.

* [[Hinduism]]
* [[New Age]] beliefs

It is also worth noting the existence of 'Panentheism' and the importance of distinguishing it from Pantheism. Panentheism is the belief that God is ''in'' all things and is chiefly manifest in [[Animism]]. Nonetheless, Pantheism and Panentheism have also been shown to feature in some outlooks generally defined as 'Monotheistic' (cf. [[Baruch Spinoza]]).

=== Non-theistic religions and philosophies===

''See also:'' [[Atheism is a religion]]

Non-theistic religions attempt to suppress belief in God or gods. Some consider the existence of God to be unknown or irrelevant, while [[strong atheism]] is the belief that asserts it is false.
* [[Agnostic]]ism
* [[Atheism]]
** [[Strong atheism]]
** [[Weak atheism]]
* [[Buddhism]] (though with elements of [[Polytheism]]. The ''devas'' that are found in a supporting role in the Tipitika are not strictly comparable to gods, as they are ultimately mortal.)
* [[Secular Humanism]]
* [[Scientology]] Has stories containing extraterrestrials though none are claimed to be divine.
* The [[Raelism|Raëlian Church]], based on the [[Ancient astronaut theory]].

=== Parody and joke religions ===
Several "religions" have been invented in an effort to denigrate or parody traditional religions. While most adherents of these "religions" are not serious believers, there are inevitably a few people who take the tenets seriously.

* [[Flying Spaghetti Monster|The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster]] - A joke religion created to parody Christianity
* [[Discordianism]] - More likely than the rest of these to be taken seriously, due to parallels with actual religions and a more unified philosophical view than the rest on this list.
* [[Jedi]] - Based on the Star Wars universe, best known for the Australian census prank where large groups of pranksters claimed to be Jedi adherents
* [[Last Thursdayism]] - Another joke religion aimed at parodying Christianity, specifically aimed at Young Earth Creationism
* [[Church of the SubGenius|SubGeniism]] - Parodies both aspects of Christianity and Scientology

== Faith in organised religion ==

The percentage of respondents answering they had a "great deal" or "quite a lot" of confidence in organised religion has decreased in the [[United States]] according to a [[Gallup]] poll taken in 2007. Only 46% of respondents selected either of the choices above. The numbers peaked at 68% in May 1975.<ref>Christian Examiner, Sept. 2007, Vol 25, No 9, Pg. 24</ref>

== Development of religion ==

Secular scholars and liberals, in order to justify their own postmodernist ideal that religious faith is a [[Subjectivism|subjective]] issue, all religions are equally valid, there are no absolutes and consequently morality is relative, tend to take an evolutionary approach to the development of religion in human societies.

They usually suscribe to the idea that religion first started off as a primitive form of Animism or Spirit Worship, then evolved into polytheistic tribal/national religions, and then from one of these religions emerged Zoroastrianism which saw a gradual decrease in its number of gods until it eventually was transformed into a monotheistic religion, which in turn evolved into the well organized, theologically complex and philosophically deep monotheistic faiths of today such as Christianity, Judaism and Islam.

This idea regarding the development of religion continues to appear in liberal publications, despite the fact that it has little real substantiation and is merely an assumption by liberal scholars, who often hold a certain kind of prejudice towards organized religion.

In reality, the exact opposite viewpoint has more substantiating anthropological evidence. Namely, the viewpoint that Monotheism (faith in one sole creator deity) was the original form of religion, but gradually corrupted until it fragmented into various polytheistic religions, which in turn decayed further giving rise to pantheistic and atheistic religions.

For example, expert egyptologist Flinders Petrie suggests there is sufficient archaeological evidence to conclude that the religion of the ancient Egyptians, which is normally categorized as a typical polytheistic religion, was not originally polytheistic, but in fact a monotheistic faith, which only in the later years of the Egyptian empire shifted from monotheism to polytheism.

Similarly, doctor Steven Rangdon of Oxford University, based on his research of ancient Babylonian inscriptions, concludes that the ancient Babylonian religion like the ancient Egyptian religion was also originally monotheistic, and only in the later stages of the Babylonian civilization did it start to transform into a polytheistic and idolatrous religion. Interestingly, this was also the case with the ancient Sumerian religion. The Sumerians believed in over 5000 gods at the time of the end of their civilization. At the start of their history, however, they only worshiped one god, the god of the sky. It is more than likely that the Sumerian god of the sky is the same God of the heavens of the Hebrew Bible.

Interestlingly, this trend can also be seen in far Eastern religions. Shinto (神道), a native polytheistic religion of Japan which now believes in the existence of thousands of deities, was in fact originally a religion with only three gods. As time passed, however, the religion started to fall into a state of decay as believers started to arbitrarily create more and more new gods of their own. The further one goes back in Japanese history the number of gods in Shinto lessens significantly. In addition, some Japanese scholars, for example evangelical theologian Kubo Arimasa, postulate that it is possible that Shinto was in fact originally monotheistic, and the three originals gods described in the opening of the oldest known Shinto text ''Kojiki'' were, in fact, originally one creator God, identical to the creator of the Old Testament.

This monotheism → polytheism → pantheism religion curruption hypothesis is also in accordance with the scriptures of the Old Testament which tells explicitly that the origin of polytheistic, idolatrous and pagan religions was the rebellion of sinners who sought to free themselves from the laws of the true creator, the Lord Yahaweh.

If the view that there is no God (or are no gods) is a religion, it is argued its expression is constitutionally protected in the [[United States]].<ref>The Supreme Court has said a religion need not be based on a belief in the existence of a supreme being. In the 1961 case of [[Torcaso v. Watkins]], the court described "[[secular humanism]]" as a religion. [http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=45874 Court rules atheism is a religion]</ref> The government cannot force [[atheists]] to recant and adopt the opposite belief.

In his BBC documentary ''[[The Trouble with Atheism]]'' the award-winning journalist Rod Liddle indicates:
{{cquote|Some atheists have become rather dogmatic. Terribly certain in their conviction that there is no God and anyone who thinks there is is a deluded and dangerous fool. ,,,atheists are becoming as intransigent about their own views as the people they so despise.

Atheism is becoming a religion of its own. It already has its gurus and its revered sacred texts... It has its magnificent temples within which lie mysteries and unknowable truths.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pi_KSjetXJg BBC Documentary The Trouble With Atheism BBC Horizon Documentary]</ref>}}

If atheism is not a religion, then the expression of atheistic ideas is still covered by the First Amendment, but only by the [[free speech]] and [[free press]] clauses.

The implications go deeper, affecting [[public education]]. If atheism is a religion, then the atheism adhering to the [[methodological naturalism]] of [[physical science]] cannot be given excessive government support. That would violate the [[establishment of religion]] clause. So, [[evolution]] education would have to allow students freedom to dissent from the "orthodox" [[pseudoscience|pseudoscientific]] view that human beings evolved from earlier forms of life without any intervention from God. It should be noted that biology courses only require knowledge of the theory of evolution, its mechanisms, and the evidence supporting it, rather than belief that evolution occurred.<ref>See [[Kenneth Miller]]'s testimony in ''Selden v.

</ref> including celebrities. Repetitive activities have a significant influence on one's sexuality, such as whether a male becomes a figure skater (pro-gay) or a baseball player (virtually no gays), or a female becomes a basketball player (pro-gay) or a ballerina (virtually no gays).

In 1980, a study was published in the ''American Journal of Psychiatry'' and eleven men participated in this study. The aforementioned study stated that eleven homosexual men became heterosexuals "without explicit treatment and/or long-term psychotherapy" through their participation in a [[Pentecostalism|Pentecostal]] church.<ref>[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7435713 E.M. Pattison and M.L. Pattison, "'Ex-Gays': Religiously Mediated Change in Homosexuals," American Journal of Psychiatry, Vol. 137, pp. 1553-1562, 1980]</ref>

Many people do not understand the [[Causes of Homosexuality|causes of homosexuality]] so they mistakenly believe that overcoming homosexuality is not an available option. However, the [[Apostle Paul]] offered great hope to those who wish to overcome homosexuality when he wrote;
{{cquote|Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." - I Corinthians 6:9-11 (NIV)}}

[[Peter LaBarbera]] is the President of [[Americans for Truth]] which is an organization which counters the [[Homosexual Agenda|homosexual agenda]]. Peter LaBarbera stated the following regarding Christian ex-homosexuals who reported being transformed by the power of God:
{{cquote|Another factor from my experience as a close observer of the “ex-gay” phenomenon is that many former homosexuals do not linger in “[[Reparative Therapy|reparative therapy]]” programs, or participate in them at all. They attribute their dramatic and (relatively) rapid transformation to the power of God, and likely would not show up in a study of this kind. In fact, these “unstudied” overcomers would appear to be the most successful ex-homosexuals because they’ve moved on with their lives — as “reborn” Christians move on after overcoming any besetting sin.<ref>[http://americansfortruth.com/2007/09/16/landmark-study-change-for-homosexuals-is-possible/ Landmark study - Change for homosexuals is still possible]</ref>}}

==Testimony of an Ex-Homosexual Pastor Darryl L. Foster==

Pastor D. L. Foster, an [[Ex-homosexuals|ex-homosexual]], states the following regarding overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|Former homosexuals joyfully point to one definitive Scripture that mentions them and the redemptive process they are embracing: "Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites ... will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God" ([http://nasb.scripturetext.com/1_corinthians/6.htm 1 Cor. 6:9-11]).

When I met and married my wife, Dee, almost 12 years ago, she and I both were clueless about what my post-homosexual life would be like. As painful as my past sin was to me, my wife was not the cause of my change; rather, she was the fruit of my change...

Our responsibility as Christians is to pour love out without measure on those who struggle to overcome homosexuality. Compassion was the hallmark of the Chief Shepherd, and as His disciples, we should be characterized by it too as we encourage them to embrace the freedom Christ offers.<ref>Charisma Magazine, online</ref>}}

==Testimony of an Ex-Lesbian Jeanette Howard Regarding Overcoming Homosexuality==
Below is a portion of a testimonial from the ex-lesbian Jeanette Howard in regards to her overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|Growing up, I felt strangely alienated from other girls. But I couldn't identify with boys either. I didn't seem to belong anywhere. Who was I, anyway?}}

"Jeanette, stand in front of the mirror every morning and thank God that He's made you a woman." This challenge came from a teacher at the Bible school I attended as a young Christian. What a ridiculous task! I thought, but reluctantly agreed. The next morning I got up and struggled to look at myself in the mirror. Try as I would, I could not acknowledge myself as a female....

Then came a breakthrough during a retreat in February, 1989. "You have believed a lie", [[God]] told me, "but I'm going to change your name". From now on, He showed me, I was to be called "woman". This was God's intention for me from my conception.

In faith I received my new name. Almost immediately I felt a weight fall away from me. In amazement, I looked around at the other women. No longer did I feel distanced from them; we were united by a common bond in Jesus Christ.

That day, the wall I had erected as a child came tumbling down. I entered into my rightful role as a woman of Christ. I felt as though I belonged-at long last.

As I have entered into my identity as a woman, God is healing my views on men. Now I see them as having a major role in my life. We complement each other, and I realize now that my life has been enriched because of them...<ref>Testimony formerly posted at Leadership University website</ref>

==Testimony of Ex-Lesbian Luanna Hansberger==
Ex-Lesbian Luanna Hasberger stated the following regarding conquering homosexuality:
{{cquote|I prayed every night for years that God would undo the mistake He had made: "God, please make me a boy."

Most of the people who knew me when I was growing up would probably have a hard time believing what my life was like during my twenties, when I became involved in the seemingly hopeless morass of a lesbian relationship...

My friends encouraged me to contact Regeneration, a local ministry which reaches out to those seeking a way out of homosexuality. Thus, in January 1981, the healing process was accelerated.

When I first came to the ministry I was extremely shy and introverted. I bounced back and forth between a masculine and a feminine identity...

The friends I first shared with continue to be a great help and support for me. That support has carried on literally from around the world as they have moved about with the military. At the end of March 1985, I got out of the Army to go to work for Regeneration. During the time since entering full time Christian service, I can really see the changes the Lord has made in me. Through Him I can now not only accept, but rejoice in, my femininity. I am now joyfully preparing for marriage. I praise the Lord for the work He has done in my life. When I was born female, God didn't make a mistake!<ref>Posted at the former website stonewallrevisited.com</ref>}}

==Concerned Women of American Regarding Overcoming Homosexuality==
The organization [[Concerned Women of America]] states the following regarding overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|Homosexual behavior can be conquered, as evidenced by the thousands of people who have completely given up the lifestyle...

If homosexual behavior [[Homosexuality and Genetics|were thought to be inborn]], Scripture would not have said, "Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another." (Romans 1:[http://scripturetext.com/romans/1-26.htm 26]-[http://scripturetext.com/romans/1-27.htm 27]). The clear implication is that the homosexual acts were deliberate choices.

If homosexual behavior were thought to be unchangeable, Scripture would not have said, "And that is what some of you were [past tense]. But you have been washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." (1 Corinthians 6:[http://scripturetext.com/1_corinthians/6-11.htm 11])<ref>http://www.cwfa.org/articles/3456/CFI/cfreport/index.htm</ref>}}
==Christians and Helping Others in Respect to Overcoming Homosexuality==
[[Image:Mark_copeland.jpg‎|right|thumb|200px|Pastor Mark A. Copeland]]
Pastor Mark A. Copeland states the following regarding Christians helping others in regards to overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|BE READY TO ASSIST THOSE WHO DESIRE TO OVERCOME HOMOSEXUALITY

Even as Jesus was quick to receive sinners and to lead them to the way of righteousness and life
everlasting, so should those who claim to be His disciples. Again, the challenge will be to do it in the
proper way.

Paul's instructions to the Galatians can serve as good beginning:

"Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." (Ga 6:[http://scripturetext.com/galatians/6-1.htm 1]-[http://scripturetext.com/galatians/6-2.htm 2])

In a spirit of gentleness we need to be able to show them how, and to provide the encouragement they will
need along the way.<ref>http://christianlibrary.org/authors/Mark_A_Copeland/hom/hom.pdf</ref>}}

==Television Show Cuts Message of Christian Who Overcame Homosexuality==
[[Image:StephenBennett.jpg‎|left|thumb|150px|Stephen Bennett]]
The organization [[Concerned Women of America]] states the following regarding an instance of [[Homosexuality in the Media|how the media and covers ex-homosexuals and the homosexuality issue]]:
{{cquote|Stephen Bennett, a former homosexual and Christian recording artist who runs a ministry to free people from homosexuality, saw his testimony cut from an appearance on The Ananda Lewis Show, a syndicated TV talk program that airs on [[WB]], [[NBC]] and [[CBS]] affiliates. The program in question aired on Tuesday (February 19, 2002) in several markets.

Not only was any mention of [[Jesus]] dropped from Bennett's six-minute segment, but he charges that the show had a misleading caption on the screen while he and his wife Irene were featured. The title read: "Says he and his wife pray daily that he doesn't revert to being gay."

This gave the impression that Mr. Bennett had told them he was still struggling with homosexuality. But Bennett, who left homosexuality behind when he accepted Jesus Christ years ago, had said during pre-interviews that he was completely healed and had no homosexual temptations. He said that neither he nor Irene told anyone on the show that he was struggling...

"I just can't get over how this completely misrepresented me," Bennett told C&F Report. He said he knew that the show's lineup would be lopsided, but, "they completely lied about my story" by leaving out how he overcame homosexuality.<ref>http://www.cultureandfamily.org/articledisplay.asp?id=450&department=CFI&categoryid=cfreport</ref>}}

==Criticism==
Some people who claimed to have overcome homosexuality have reverted or continued to dabble in aspects of the homosexual lifestyle. However, the same can be said of any sin. For example, people with illegal drug use problems who leave that lifestyle can later relapse and start taking illegal drugs again.

'''"Gay pride"''', often referred to simply as '''"Pride"''', is a form of [[identity politics]]. It is a [[liberal]] buzz-word, an [[oxymoron]] actually, asserting that [[homosexuality]] is something to be proud of. As part of the [[homosexual agenda]], there have been numerous "Gay Pride" [[parade]]s in major cities around the world. Sodomite groups and the [[ACLU]] have brought legal cases against communities who refused to issue parade permits for gay pride parades because they violated [[obscenity]] laws and parents did not want their children exposed to homosexuality.<ref>[http://www.afamichigan.org/2008/05/29/news-ferndale-police-urged-to-enforce-public-nudity-laws-at-homosexual-festival/] Ferndale, Michigan police urged to enforce public nudity laws at homosexual festival.</ref> In the spirit of [[politically correct|"political correctness"]], these parades have persisted, despite numerous reports of [[nudity]], lewdness, public [[drunk]]ennness and assault on innocent passerbys.<ref>http://americansfortruth.com/issues/homosexual-hate/public-indecency</ref><ref>http://www.newswithviews.com/Daubenmire/dave75.htm</ref>

==Those who Abuse their Power==
A poem by Francis Duggan, targeting those who abuse their power for selfish purposes:

''Those who abuse their power over others in their lust for renown 
''Are those who are letting humanity down 
''They come in all shades of colors black, white and brown 
''And are to be found in every village and city and town 
''For abusing their power they cannot have an excuse 
''Since power does not give them the right others to abuse 
''Any form of abuse does constitute a crime 
''Though not all abusers do serve prison time 
''Those with power over others who abuse their power are in minority 
''And thankfully most people who do not abuse their power are of the majority 
''But a few rotten apples in a bag does rot others as the wise one does say 
''And there are far too many abusive people in the Human World of today 
''Of more compassionate people as leaders in the World we are in need 
''And the person who leads by good example is a good person indeed.''<ref>[https://www.poemhunter.com/poem/those-who-abuse-their-power/ Those Who Abuse Their Power]</ref>

==Regarding children and the Internet==
It's never a good idea for children to use the Internet without the supervision of a parent or other responsible adult, because when left to their own devices online, children with nothing better to do (especially when they have time off from school) and who haven't been taught better by some parents will invariably get into mischief online (as the vandalism of, and occasional attempts to deny access to, Conservapedia by some of those children demonstrates - in particular, one young troll who frequently comes to Conservapedia with numerous socks, all carrying vulgar variations of the screen names of the editors and admins he attacks with vulgarity, foul language and copypasted death threats as well as vandalizing other pages, but who I simply call the Juvenile Delinquent because of his junior high school-level immaturity, extreme childishness, use of vulgarity/foul language and lack of intelligence and originality - and every time he comes back with yet another sock to attack editors and admins and vandalize articles and user/user talk pages with more vulgar immaturity [on account of his refusal to take the hint that he's not wanted on this site and that he will ''never'' make it in the real world with that kind of attitude], all he does is keep right on proving '''''every single point''''' I make about him, [[Dunning-Kruger effect|which he is too clueless to get]]).

Here's an example of what can happen when some such children take things one step further and decide to act the same way toward people face-to-face as they do online - especially if they go up against the wrong person with their childish behavior:

[https://tribunist.com/news/kid-caught-keying-cars-attacks-the-man-who-stopped-him-it-doesnt-end-well/ Kid Caught Keying Cars Attacks The Man Who Stopped Him.

Essay:Worst Liberal TV Shows

2022-02-20T09:27:42Z

Shobson20: /* Schlockumentary Series */

Starting with the infamous "Rural purge" of the early-1970s (when [[CBS]] cancelled most of its Western dramas and all of its rural/family-themed sitcoms and variety shows in favor of "socially relevant" urban-themed programs) and increasingly into the present, liberal-leaning television series creators, producers, and writers have put shows on the air that appeal more to their own personal viewpoints than to the tastes of most of the general public. As a result, in part due to the increase in TV channels since that period, many currently airing series have undergone decreases in viewership and the declining ratings that go with them. To liberals in the media, however, declining TV ratings and unsatisfied audiences mean less to them than pushing [[liberal ideology]] (including positively playing up [[socialism]], [[witchcraft]], [[feminism]], [[gender confusion]] and the [[homosexual agenda]] and playing the [[race card]] for ideological purposes while denigrating [[religion]], the [[family]], [[traditional values]] and the [[First Amendment|First]] and [[Second Amendment]]s) and forcing public acceptance of it does. Shown below is a list of some of the worst liberal TV series, past and present.

|''[[2 Broke Girls]]''
|2011-2017
|[[CBS]]
|
|This garbage sitcom glorifies homosexuality and feminism while directly insulting conservative ideals and leaders. It constantly attempts to push the limits of blue jokes, racial stereotypes, and sexual references. One of the series' titular girls—Max Black, a proudly rude, unprofessional, unmotivated, immoral, aggressive, and promiscuous woman with a drug and alcohol problem—is portrayed as a positive role model for modern women (ironically, the actress, Kat Dennings, doesn't even smoke or do drugs and very rarely drinks). Plus, the character Sophie Kachinsky, who is even more immoral and promiscuous, is always given a very loud canned applause upon every one of her entrances in order to indicate her as the show's "most popular" character. The show, which posted 19.37 million viewers at its premiere in 2011, fell to less than a quarter of that number (hitting a low of 4.57 million viewers) by the time of its cancellation in May 2017.
|-
|''[[30 Rock]]''
|2006-2013
|[[NBC]]
|TV-14
|What looks like a sitcom about the life of the head writer of a sketch comedy series is really a front for several left-wing agendas, most infamously including a slam against [[Sarah Palin]] and routine stereotyping of conservative business executives (as in series regular Jack Donnaghy, a tasteless parody of business icon Jack Welch played by liberal Alec Baldwin). Throughout its airing from 2006 to 2013, despite being very popular liberal elites, the series received poor ratings, with its first season ranking only at #102, its subsequent seasons consistently ranking low (the highest-rated season was Season 3 with a ranking of #69 and 3.2 million viewers). Season 6 had such a low performance overall (and a very poorly-received season finale ranking at 1.6 million viewers) that NBC was forced to cancel the show at one more season.
|-
|''All American Muslim''
|2011-2012
|TLC
|
|This reality program essentially censors and whitewashes the true face of Islam, a terroristic and supremacist religio-political ideology masquerading as a non-political "religion", following the lives of five Islamic families in the [[Detroit]] suburb of [[Dearborn]], Michigan. The show drew criticism for depicting Islam in a favorable light, ignoring the harsh realities, and it was cancelled after one season due to low ratings. Controversy erupted elsewhere when home improvement retail chain Lowe's withdrew its sponsorship of the show, leading liberal celebrities like Russell Simmons, Mia Farrow, and Kal Penn; Internet activist group [[Anonymous]]; Islamic congressman [[Keith Ellison]]; and other liberal politicians to call for a boycott of Lowe's and demanded apologies from the chain in response. Lowe's ignored their demands, and other companies joined Lowe's in withdrawing sponsorship of the program, while the threatened boycott itself largely fizzled.
|-
|''[[All in the Family]]''
|1971–1979
|[[CBS]]
|
|In this American adaptation by [[liberal]] TV producer [[Norman Lear]] of the [[BBC]] series ''Till Death Us Do Part'', Lear inaccurately depicted Archie Bunker, a blue-collar conservative and head of the Bunker family, with liberal traits like [[bigotry]] and ignorance while depicting his son-in-law, socially liberal and politically [[leftist]] [[hippie]] and [[Democrat Party|Democrat]] supporter Mike Stivic (referred to as "Meathead" by Archie), as the "voice of reason." The show portrays the mother and housewife as a "dingbat", a very derogatory name that she is called on the show by her own husband. Many episodes focus on on the political, philosophical, and cultural clashes between Archie and Mike, while Archie's wife Edith and their daughter Gloria try to keep the peace. In the original British series, Mike's counterpart on that show, Mike Rawlins, was a [[Trotskyism|Trotskyist]]. Ironically, Archie Bunker despite being treated in a negative light ended up being more well-received by audiences than the main protagonist Mike Stivic largely because of his stubborn rejection of the counterculture, to the extent that the American series later spawned a sequel, ''Archie Bunker's Place'', which ran from 1979 to 1983, and his chair was one of the historical museum pieces in the Smithsonian.<ref>''The Politically Incorrect Guide to the 1960s'' by Johnathan Leaf, page 97. Those Were the Days. The show most people associate with the clash between the sixties counterculture and the older generation, ''All in the Family'', did not premier until 1971. It is hailed by liberals today as a ground-breaking sitcom that "pushed the envelope" of acceptable fare for TV. In all the praise, however, it's forgotten that what made the show so beloved was the popularity of its featured patriarhh, Archie Bunker. Although the character was supposed to be an unenlightened, illogical bigot, he became a hero to millions of Americans for his stubborn rejection of the counterculture. It is Archie Bunker's chair that has become one of the most famous exhibits in the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. Meanwhile, Bunker's counterculture antagonist is now mostly remembered for the derisive nickname Archie gave him: Meathead.</ref>
|-
|''Anderson Cooper 360°''
|2003-present
|[[CNN]]
|
|The openly [[homosexual]] [[Anderson Cooper]] hosts this liberally biased news program.
|-
|''[[Andi Mack]]''
|2017-2019
|[[Disney Channel]]
|TV-G
|What at first looked like a sitcom with potential ended up to be another front for the [[homosexual agenda]] as characters turn out to be either gay or lesbian.
|-
|''Annoying Orange''
|2009-2011
|YouTube
|TV-Y7 (should be TV-14)
|This Internet series promotes lack of effective communication skills via being annoying. The Annoying Orange does nothing but harass other anthropomorphic fruits and vegetables with loads of adult humor and Hollywood values.
|-
|''The Baby-Sitters Club''
|2020
|Netflix
|TV-G
|This remake of the 1990 TV show of the same name (adapted from a book series written by Ann M. Martin) features a transgender child in the first episode, promoting transgenderism and gender confusion as well. When this transgender child - who is a boy who identifies as a girl - is taken to a hospital, "she" is correctly called a boy by the doctor, prompting one of the main characters to villify the doctor for "robbing her of her identity".
|-
|''Barney and Friends''
|1992-2008
|PBS Kids
|TV-Y
|In this "educational" children's television series, a big, purple, anthropomorphic Tyrannosaurus Rex named Barney teaches children about environmentalism, multiculturalism, and other unimportant issues. The title dinosaur also pampers children excessively instead of teaching them how to maturely confront negative emotions and feelings, which is often cited as contributing to a sense of entitlement affecting America's [[Millennial|Millennial generation]], which grew up watching the show as children and has an outspoken secular liberal population.
|-
|''Batwoman''
|2019-present
|CW
|
|Based on the DC Comics superheroine of the same name, this latest entry to the DC Comics-based shared fictional universe dubbed the ''Arrowverse'' on the CW has gone even further to the Left than previous adaptations, including ''Supergirl''. Title superheroine Kate Kane, who takes up Bruce Wayne/Batman's job after he inexplicably disappears from Gotham City, is an "out" lesbian: the first episode reveals she was discharged from a military academy for entering an affair with a woman named Sophie. It is noted for being exceedingly feministic and pushing [[social justice]] to an immense level, and the pilot even has a cameo from far-left MSNBC correspondent [[Rachel Maddow]]. It has been criticized as being composed exclusively of themes of social justice.<ref>https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/lindsay-kornick/2019/10/06/lesbian-batwoman-fights-social-justice-and-not-much-else</ref>

Ratings eventually plummeted from its pilot episode ratings of 1.86 million viewers by the second episode,<ref>https://tvline.com/2019/10/14/batwoman-ratings-season-1-episode-2/</ref> which is suspected to be the result of the star Ruby Rose insulting critics of the series by assuming they are all "old white men".<ref>https://metro.co.uk/2019/09/25/ruby-rose-lashes-online-haters-batwoman-casting-10804760/</ref> In the third episode, arc villain Tommy Elliot appears as an obvious caricature of [[Donald Trump]], even to the point of declaring his intention to "make Gotham safe again."<ref>https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/lindsay-kornick/2019/10/20/make-gotham-safe-again-batwoman-introduces-trump-villain</ref> As of the 17th episode "A Narrow Escape", ratings for ''Batwoman'' fell to a then-record low of 630,000 viewers; despite the low ratings and viewership (which would have led to its cancellation on any of the Big Four networks), however, the CW chose to spite the show's critics by renewing it for a second season in January 2020. The show was later hit by the announcement of the exit of Ruby Rose from the show in May 2020. Ratings for the show have fallen even further since then, as the second season episode "Do Not Resuscitate" (aired on February 28, 2021) recorded a new record low of just 460,000 viewers, less than a quarter of what the pilot episode registered.
|-
|''Becoming Us''
|2015
|ABC Family/Freeform
|
|This reality show glamorizes and exploits [[gender confusion]]. Two families with fathers claiming to be "women" are highlighted in this series, which debuted at a low-rated 81st place and dropped out of the top 100 shows entirely the following week, eventually finishing the season at less than a third of its already-low debut viewership numbers. The show subsequently ended production and was later removed from Freeform's schedule without fanfare.
|-
|''[[The Big Bang Theory]]''
|2007-2019
|[[CBS]]
|
|This sitcom stars a free-spirited beauty and her socially challenged scientist friends but does not demonstrate any family values. Instead, some of the main characters are rooming together without being married, and all four leading men have dysfunctional relationships with one or both parents. In addition, the key character Sheldon Cooper is one of the most outspoken [[Atheism|atheists]] in sitcom history, which leads to both religious and cultural friction with his devoutly Christian mother Mary as well as his Jewish colleague Howard Wolowitz and Hindu friend Dr. Raj Koothrapali. The show is widely considered to have stolen its characters' personalities and their relationships to one another from an earlier sitcom, ''Friends''.<ref>http://www.sheknows.com/entertainment/articles/1110963/the-big-bang-theory-and-friends-similarities</ref><ref>http://whatculture.com/tv/15-similarities-friends-big-bang-theory</ref><ref>http://www.looper.com/10501/big-bang-theory-lot-like-friends/</ref>
|-
|''Bill Nye Saves the World''
|2017-present
|[[Netflix]]
|TV-14
|Leftist "scientist" [[Bill Nye]] hypnotizes his viewers into pseudo-scientific hucksterism and far-Left views. Though liberal critics praised it, American audiences in general panned it.<ref>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6021260/reviews?ref_=tt_urv</ref>
|-
|''[[Black Jesus]]''
|2014-present
|[[Adult Swim]]
|TV MA
|Sacrilegious from its title forward, this blasphemous television series focuses on the Messiah, Jesus Christ, living in Compton, California in the modern day. Despite the show's questionable portrayal of Christ and the black community, reviewers claim that the character's method of spreading the Lord's message of love and compassion is present and may actually act as a way to reach the young and rebellious modern audience of today. However, the continued usage of illegal substances on the show may impede that.
|-
|''[[Black-ish]]''
|2014-present
|[[ABC]]
|
|This sitcom follows the lives of an upper middle class African American family in Los Angeles, California. The plots of most episodes usually push liberal ideologies such as gun control, vaccinations, and even abortion. In trying to subvert black racial stereotypes, it only furthers the stereotypes it claims to be against. Worst of all, the season 3 episode "Lemons" exists only to attack [[Donald Trump]].

The series has two spinoffs, the college-oriented ''Grown-ish'' and the 1980s-set prequel ''Mixed-ish'', both of which push racial stereotypes in equal measure. Likewise, ''Mixed-ish'' inevitably praises Communism, the [[hippie]] lifestyle, hedonism, slacking, and freeloading while inevitably attacking Ronald Reagan, capitalism, gun rights, and conservatism in general<ref>[https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/sadi-martin/2019/09/24/mixed-ish-mixed New '80s Comedy 'Mixed-ish' Mixed-Up on Communism, Reagan] at NewsBusters</ref>.
|-
|''The Boys''
|2019-present
|[[Amazon]]
|
|In this adaptation of the WildStorm/Dynamite Entertainment comic of the same name, various superheroes created for the series, which are normally regarded as symbols of American patriotism, are instead shown to use their powers to achieve malevolent ends. The super-powered vigilantes in question, whose activity this show's title characters monitor, plagiarize various Marvel and DC superheroes like Steve Rogers/Captain America, Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, and Barry Allen/Flash. They generally tended to mock conservative values and politicians, though ironically, it got into trouble by its liberal viewer base in its second season finale after it implied that liberal politicians, including a stand-in for [[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]], are also capable of being evil.<ref>https://newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/lindsay-kornick/2020/10/12/triggered-liberal-tv-critics-jarred-and-upset-aoc</ref>
|-
|''Brave New Girls''
|2014
|E! (Canada)
|
|This Canadian reality series exploits and glorifies gender confusion, featuring gender-confused male model Walter "Jenna" Talackova, who gained infamy for his attempt to become a contestant in the woman-only Miss Universe Canada pageant in 2012 and was initially disqualified after his true gender was discovered (he had lied about who he really was to get in); he got back in after liberal [[feminism|feminist]] lawyer Gloria Allred got involved on his behalf, but he still failed to make the pageant's final five contestants. Only eight episodes of this series were produced, but the Canadian E! channel has not officially announced that the show has been cancelled.
|-
|''Bridezillas''
|2004-2013
|WE TV
|
|Brides-to-be are encouraged to display their worst behavior in this staged "reality" series. They rant, scream, throw tantrums, and treat their wedding staff, spouse-to-be, family, and friends terribly.
|-
|''Buffy the Vampire Slayer''
|1997-2003
|The WB
|TV-14
|This feministic, supernatural-themed series, loosely based on the 1992 comedy horror film of the same name but with a more serious tone than the original movie, depicts homosexual characters as "normal". In its later seasons, one of the antagonists is a demon whose minions heavily resemble Catholic clergy in an obvious anti-Christian message. In addition, in a foreshadowing of things to come in television regarding orientation swaps, the character Willow, despite being depicted as straight in the first three seasons, was abruptly changed into a lesbian by the show's fourth season. In one episode, protagonist Buffy calls out a school course that pushes left-wing propaganda and implies her saving humanity from the forces of darkness is a waste because of such material being taught in a foreshadowing of the pervasive [[Social Justice Warrior]] infestation of the university system as a positive, but it is not enough to detract from the whole series' liberal status.
|-
|''Charmed''
|1998-2006
|The WB
|
|This disturbing glorification of witchcraft and feminism was rebooted in 2018.
|-
|''[[The Colbert Report]]''
|2005-2014
|Comedy Central
|TV 14
|Stephen Colbert is a liberal who parodies conservative pundits such as [[Bill O'Reilly]] and conservative news shows, such as ''[[The O'Reilly Factor]]''. Alcohol use, profanity, and jokes related to intercourse are laden throughout.

|Left-wing commentator [[Keith Olbermann]] hosts this news program featuring vehement attacks against conservatives.
|-
|''[[The Daily Show with Jon Stewart]]''
|1996-2015
|[[Comedy Central]]
|TV 14
|Jon Stewart insults conservative politicians and media stars much more than his occasional jab at liberal Democrats. A year after he left the show, Stewart turned up as a surprise guest on former costar Stephen Colbert's late-night CBS talk show and made a fool of himself by lambasting the [[Donald Trump]] Republican presidential campaign for Trump's stands against illegal immigration and Islamic terrorism as well as his criticisms of [[Barack Hussein Obama]]'s administration and Hillary Clinton's character.
|-
|''Dawson's Creek''
|1998-2003
|[[The WB]]
|TV 14
|Don't let the premise of it dealing with teens growing up in a suburban neighborhood fool you. The pilot episode's script was infamously controversial for including several racey and risque sex-related plotlines. During the second and third seasons, it advocates homosexuality as series regular Jack McPhee "comes out" as gay and, in the third season finale "True Love", engaged in the first on-screen same-sex male kiss on live action television with his "boyfriend" Angus (which had apparently been forced into the episode by producer [[Greg Berlanti]], threatening executives to quit if they didn't cave to his demand). The 1998-1999 season even was ranked #1 on the top worst shows of that season on Parents TV largely because of its excessive references to gratuitous pre-marital sex, pornography, and condoms, and at least one reference to masturbation, plus its promotion of teen homosexuality, and to add insult to injury, the show was aimed at a young viewership via the 8:00 PM timeslot as well as having younger protagonists.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20080430140836/https://www.parentstv.org/ptc/publications/reports/top10bestandworst/98top/main.asp</ref>

|''House, MD''
|2004-2012
|[[Fox]]
|
|This medical drama features situations that are fairly accurate and real from a scientific viewpoint, but marred by the protagonist who is a rude, cynical, and inevitably atheistic medical doctor who is addicted to the pain medication Vicodin. Although witty and intelligent, the show attempts to paint a liberal distortion of the reality of medical doctors, who are actually more religious than people in other scientific fields, or at least accepting and tolerant of the importance of a patient's faith in their lives. The series may even suggest that his atheism is responsible for making him a "superior" doctor to the rest, though as mentioned, this is not a fixed law in real life. Medical doctors are not only more open about the role in faith in health, but have done more good to save people's lives and show actual concern for the afflicted, beyond the reductionistic "rationalism" of atheopaths who, for instance, want to seem like they care about disabled children by euthanizing them because of their narrow view of human life. In addition, millions of dollars has been wasted in celebrating ingrate scientists like Stephen Hawking and Carl Sagan, who wasted time trying to find life on other planets or irrelevant information regarding black holes while the human population continues to suffer and would have benefited more from investing in better health treatments or technology.

Its viewership, which had been at 2.73 million viewers at its premiere but dropped by more than half after that, fell to less than a fifth of that number (about 480,000 viewers) at one point during its second season, which finished with less than a third of its debut numbers and led to its cancellation on August 3, 2016 (although E! initially publicly denied that the show was cancelled).<ref>[http://www.unrealitytv.co.uk/tv/caitlyn-jenners-i-cait-cancelled-e-just-2-seasons/ (Bruce) Jenner’s 'I Am Cait' cancelled at E!

|Although the first season dealt with stopping terrorists and to a certain degree government corruption being depicted in a negative light and was overall politically neutral, the second season, similar to ''Supergirl'' below, went far-left for the second season. Season 2 makes the U.S. President a woman in a clear attempt at shilling for Hillary Clinton for the presidency; and the final few episodes of the season feature the president succeeding her as a dictator intent on merging the CIA and the FBI, and operating from Russia, in a clear spitting upon Donald Trump's presidency and an [[allusion]] to the false claims of Russian collusion in the 2016 election. This plotline proved to be very popular among the liberal critics who praised what they perceived as "moral ambiguity."<ref>https://townhall.com/columnists/brentbozell/2017/09/29/critics-hate-military-shows-in-prime-time-n2388223</ref>

One episode, "Rejoined", contains a lesbian kiss; another episode shows a male character being transformed into a female, and many episodes ridicule the United States and Christianity. The ever-present relationships between human and non-human characters are hidden messages about bestiality, and several characters possess a stereotypically liberal smarter-than-thou personality. Ironically, showrunner Ira Steven Behr acknowledged this: "I know they got a lot of negative feedback, which only goes to prove a point I always believed in, which is that science fiction fans and ''Star Trek'' fans are much more conservative than people want to believe, and this whole Gene Roddenberry liberal humanistic vision is truly not shared by a significant portion of them."

|This horror series' main themes include witchcraft, evolution, and the occult. Young children use four-letter words conversationally and engage in premarital, underage sex, never facing comeuppance for either. Perhaps the biggest offense, however, is the way it tries to make feminism within the family unit look acceptable, as the homemaker mother is seen as bumbling and oblivious, while the divorced, chain-smoking single mother is seen as heroic. The show's "breakout" character and main protagonist is a young girl and former laboratory experiment who uses demonic powers to murder anyone in her path. Another "fan favorite" character is revealed to be a lesbian and her sexuality is treated without scorn and is instead viewed as normal by the other characters.

|''Succession''

|A drama/dark comedy series which centers around a dysfunctional wealthy family, consistently implying the corruption of the upper class, as well as making successful business owners out to be idiots. The only normal self-respecting man in the family, Logan Roy, is looked down on for his personality and ruthlessness while all of his children parasitically use and abuse his hard earned money for their hedonistic lifestyles. The men in the family consist of Kendall, a drug addict, Roman, a pathetic man-child with a ridiculous attraction to older women, and Connor, a bumbling aspiring politician made to lampoon and caricature conservative political hopefuls. The one daughter in the family, Shiv, is of course portrayed to be the most functioning out of them all, but is an utterly abhorred model for women and girls; she is unfaithful to her husband Tom, who does nothing as she continuously cucks him over and over, and has essentially no sense of morality and respect, though maybe this is to be expected given her stated liberal background. In addition, Tom is perhaps a homosexual, given the strange nature of his relationship with the family's "Cousin Greg," yet another sissified weak excuse of a male character. He repeatedly asks Greg to 'kiss him' within the first episode of the show, which is not violently rejected, and another character in the show is later revealed to be homosexual as well; this is all treated as normal, suggesting the presence of a further homosexual agenda.

|Seasons 1-8: Lead character Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen) is an [[alcoholism|alcoholic]] jingle writer whose series of casual sexual relationships is admired and envied by others, while his younger brother Alan, a tightly-wound chiropractor who is more moral and hard-working by comparison, is more prone to misfortune. There is a lack of positive female role models, and Charlie has an antagonistic and dysfunctional relationship with his narcissistic, emotionally toxic mother, which is passed off as humorous.

Seasons 9-12: After saying goodbye to the late Charlie (a response to Sheen's dismissal from further appearances following his real-world bout with alcoholism, drug abuse, and adultery), Alan meets and takes in tech company billionaire Walden Schmidt, whose divorce from his wife is presented positively. In one episode, Alan's ex-wife Judith is implied to have undergone a lesbian one-night-stand. In another episode, Alan's son Jake comments about getting a sexually transmitted disease as if it were a badge of honor.

In November 2012, Angus T. Jones, Jake's actor, began speaking out against the show, which he had recently left, and labeled it as filth after his famous conversion to Christianity the previous month.

|Based off of the comic book series ''The Walking Dead'', the series follows Atlanta police officer Rick Grimes as he leads a group of survivors - including his wife, son, and best friend - to survive in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by zombies. The series starts off pretty neutral (emphasizing the importance of family, for example), but by season 5, leftist content sneaks in. The maker of the series has confirmed that the only relationships they will add in later seasons would be only LGBT and interracial relationships just to score points from those wanting more diversity, as well as feminism. Mercy is shown in a negative light at times, an example being Maggie and Daryl standing aside and letting Oceanside women murder a reformed Savior (which can be shown to some as the two being no better than former villain Negan, who kills Maggie's husband Glenn in front of them). A minor arc paints Abraham in a positive light for cheating on his girlfriend Rosita for Sasha, encouraging infidelity. There is even a hint of moral relativism, an Oceanside girl saying that there is no such thing as evil and that people forget who they are, though Tara does respond by saying that evil does exist. On a minor note, the former head of Alexandria - Deanne - is confirmed to be modeled after Hillary Clinton.

The miniseries claims the homosexual agenda began as an offshoot of the [[Civil Rights Movement]], but nonwhite Americans would consider this claim offensive due to the agenda's attempt to compare sexual preference to skin color (a person's skin color is a trait from birth, but homosexuality is not) as well as a cheap attempt by the LGBT movement to hitch their wagon onto legitimate civil rights for nonwhite Americans. As expected, liberal media reviewers heaped unwarranted praise on the miniseries, while conservative website [[NewsBusters]] was far more critical of it and called out the miniseries, its producers, and writer/creator Dustin Lance Black for their revisionism and lies.<ref name="When We Rise"/> Not surprisingly, few TV viewers were willing to watch the miniseries because of its pushing of the homosexual agenda, liberal ideology, historical revisionism, and whitewashing, making it the lowest-rated program to air on the Big Four broadcast networks each night it aired, putting ABC in fourth place behind CBS, NBC, and FOX while barely tying with the CW.<ref name="Rise Failure"/><ref>[http://www.dailywire.com/news/14020/backlash-gay-and-transgender-tv-die-ratings-john-nolte BACKLASH: Gay and Transgender TV Die In the Ratings] at ''The Daily Wire''</ref>

|''Will & Grace''
|1998–2006; 2017–2020
|NBC
|
|This sitcom stars a homosexual lawyer, Will Truman, and a straight interior designer, Grace Adler, who share an apartment in New York City. It attempts to normalize homosexuality in society and uses Will's lifestyle to pander to a targeted LGBT audience. The third main character, Jack McFarland, is a sporadically-employed actor and a flamboyant, promiscuous homosexual whose life revolves around homosexuality almost every waking moment and attempting to get sexually involved with every man he comes across. Finally, the fourth main character, Karen Walker, is an amoral socialite whose existence plays up to and makes light of [[alcoholism]] and prescription [[drug abuse]].

In spite of its subject matter, the series became a surprise hit for NBC as part of its Thursday night "Must See TV" lineup, drawing an average of over 17 million viewers at its peak during its third and fourth seasons before its rating fell in its later seasons. One seventh season episode, "From Queer to Eternity", drew a record low viewership of just 5.8 million as viewers began tiring of the show. It ended production in 2006 after eight seasons, and its reruns, which entered syndication in the fall of 2002, largely vanished from broadcast syndication in 2008, retreating to cable thereafter. It was revived by NBC for an abbreviated ninth season on September 28, 2017, during which time the network claimed it had already renewed the series for a tenth season. However, its return episode, "11 Years Later", dove straight into politics as it made pathetic jokes about conservatives, attacked Donald Trump, and took a cheap shot poke at Ronald Reagan's later struggle with Alzheimer's disease<ref>[https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/amelia-hamilton/2017/09/28/will-grace-embarrasses-itself-trump-reagan-jokes 'Will & Grace' Embarrasses Itself With Pathetic Trump Jokes, Abhorrent Shot at Reagan's Alzheimer's] at NewsBusters</ref>, causing it to garner only 10.18 million viewers for its return. Later episodes in the revival steadily lost viewership; its February 20, 2020 episode "Accidentally on Porpoise" fell to just 1.95 million viewers, making it the lowest-rated episode in the show's history. The ''Will & Grace'' revival did not last as long as it did in its original run, as it was announced on July 25, 2019 that its 11th season (which ended on April 23, 2020) would be its last.

|''The Wonder Years''
|1988-1993
|ABC
|
|Although traditional family values churn at the core, ''The Wonder Years'' has a politically liberal, specifically antiwar undertone. Arnold family patriarch Jack Arnold, is a veteran of the [[Korean War]], but the second season episode "Walkout" has Jack's son Kevin Arnold and other students walk out of school to protest the ongoing [[Vietnam War]]. The only person who tries to stop it is the school's vice-principal, who is vilified for threatening to suspend any participants in the walkout and put those suspensions on their permanent records. The series makes other jabs at the war, such as characters like Kevin's rebellious, teenage hippie sister Karen going to vigils and displaying the peace sign.

A reboot of the series, retailored to appeal to African-American and SJW audiences (thus making the reboot even more liberal than the original already was) by making the main family black and setting the show in Montgomery, Alabama during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, was announced by ABC in July 2020 with an expected 2021 debut.<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2020/07/08/the-wonder-years-reboot-to-feature-black-family-in-turbulent-1960s-montgomery-alabama/ ‘The Wonder Years’ Reboot to Feature Black Family in Turbulent 1960s Montgomery, Alabama] at Breitbart News Network</ref> Critics of the show have already begun predicting that the reboot will not last long due to its creators' decision to appeal to a very limited audience for political and ideological reasons (especially if it attempts to engage in leftist historical revisionism by making the Republicans and their supporters the "villains", ignoring that it was actually the Democrats who were responsible for race-based segregation, Jim Crow laws and sending their KKK terrorist wing after blacks and their Republican supporters during that time).

|''Arthur'' (Season 22 onward)

|This popular children's series, based on the eponymous books by Marc Brown and set in a world of anthropomorphic animals, follows the daily life of the titular aardvark, his family, and his friends. It managed to be apolitical for almost 23 years before Arthur's third and fourth grade teacher, Mr. Ratburn, was rewritten as homosexual and "married" to a man in the season 22 episode "Mr. Ratburn and the Special Someone", likely in a desperate bid to revive public interest in a program past its prime. Local Alabama and Arkansas TV stations banned the episode for that reason. In a particularly distasteful example of a children's franchise's creator putting his personal political views above whether the content is actually appropriate for the intended age bracket, Marc Brown condemned both states for banning the episode.<ref>https://people.com/tv/alabama-pulls-arthur-gay-wedding-episode-marc-brown-responds/?xid=socialflow_twitter_peoplemag&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=peoplemagazine</ref> In another shallow attempt to keep this age-old series culturally relevant, the Web-exclusive episode titled "Arthur on Racism: Talk, Listen, And Act", which was published in August of 2020, encourages its target age bracket to support the violent and culturally [[Marxism|Marxist]] [[Black Lives Matter]] movement and guilt them into thinking they are "racist" for not doing so.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2020/08/arthur-on-pbs-indoctrinates-kids-with-blm-propaganda/114291/</ref> This all eventually came to a head by Febraury 2022, as the show ended up cancelled as of that date.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2022/01/25/pbs-kids-officially-ending-arthur-after-pushing-woke-blm-lgbtq-propaganda/</ref>

|In a world of both humans and anthropomorphic animals, a talking horse who is a faded 1990s sitcom star (perhaps a reference to the even older sitcom ''Mister Ed'') and his friends live by [[Hollywood values]], [[sexual immorality]], existentialism, and drug use. One episode states that women who choose [[abortion]] are "heroes". Moreover, the show seems to present bestiality positively because there are interspecies relationships. Another episode of the series disrespects military veterans and implies they are not real heroes.

|Notorious for its shock tactics, the most successful series created by leftist Seth Macfarlane routinely employs willful tastelessness for comedic shock value. Examples include one regular character who is a homosexual pedophile, as well as frequent Hitler jokes and film and television clips as seen through the eyes of the patriarch protagonist Peter Griffin, who sees them with a warped and twisted viewpoint. Brian Griffin, the Griffin family's talking pet dog, is frequently used by series creator Seth MacFarlane as a sounding board for his liberal political and social views. Although the title implies that the series values the traditional family unit, Peter and occasionally his wife Lois treat their children in an exceptionally abusive manner, usually for laughs.

|As if ''Big Mouth'' weren't dependent enough on shock value, this musical adult Web series struggles to get a theme of redemption (in which demons who were humans are invited to stay at the titular hotel to be cleansed of their sins so they can go to heaven) past its using shock value and sacrilege as a crutch. Protagonist Charlie is the princess of [[Hell]] and lesbian daughter of [[Satan]]/Lucifer himself (and Lilith, a demon from the Jewish religion who is his wife in this universe), and her three main costars are either gay or lesbian as well. Adult language (including swears against [[Heaven]]) is used in rapid fire, as is the real-world drug "Angel Dust", which is also the name of a gay pornographic actor-turned-demon included among the protagonists. As of the end of 2019, only one episode has been released, and Wikipedia has customarily given voice only to those who positively received it.

One episode, "Megalomaniacs", was edited for a skit that depicted the Spanish Inquisition in a negative light, and instead was replaced with Custer being mistaken for running a Custard stand. One particular episode, "The Russian Revolution", sings praises for Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin, depicting them as humanitarians. In reality, they were two of Russia's most feared mass murderers and tyrants.

To make matters worse, the liberal site YouTube when posting the trailer not only received massive amounts of upvotes from viewers, primarily those from China and Russia, but also had several comments condemning America.<ref>https://www.oneangrygamer.net/2018/12/the-leader-chinese-government-sponsored-anime-depicts-karl-marx-as-a-hero/74078/</ref>

|''The Legend of Korra''
|2012-2014
|Nickelodeon
|TV-PG
|The sequel to the hit Nickelodeon series ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' stars the Avatar after Aang - Korra - going to Republic City to learn airbending from Aang and Katara's son, Tenzin. During the series, Korra goes through personal trials while dealing with newer enemies including the Equalists (terrorists seeking to eradicate bending). Liberals have pushed it on children since it features an early, if not ''the'' first, homosexual protagonist in children's television (with a comic sequel trilogy called ''Turf Wars'' focusing more on Korra and Asami's same-sex relationship than the story) and strongly advocates feminism; the creators of the series - Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko - have even accused fans not for Korra and Asami's same-sex relationship as "seeing only through rose-tinted lenses" (accusing them of "homophobia"). Season 2 has also shown the police force as either incompetent or stubbornly unreasonable with the exception of Mako, who works hard to solve the case going on concerning terrorism. Environmentalism and even misanthropy are seen as positive in the two-parter origin story "Beginnings", where Wan (the very first Avatar) lives with dangerous spirits that have killed or horribly disfigured people and prevents hunters finding food for their fellow villagers from catching a cat deer, doubling as a hint of condemnation against [[hunting]]. An open borders policy is even suggested when Korra leaves the spirit portals open and declares that humans and spirits must live together, ignoring the dangers that spirits had inflicted upon humans.

Main protagonist Lincoln Loud's best friend Clyde McBride is raised by a homosexual couple, and one of Lincoln's ten sisters is bisexual. The character artwork in this series is often criticized for being [[derivative work|derivative]] of the Disney animated series ''Gravity Falls'', given that it follows what is termed the "CalArts Style", named for a specific character design style commonly seen among those drawn by animators who studied at the California Institute of the Arts.

The man in question, Keitaru Urashima, later ends up marrying Naru Narusegawa, who is the main offender regarding the abuse.

Family values are cruelly cast to the side when Teela banishes her father Man-At-Arms for keeping a secret that He-Man/Prince Adam told him to keep, as well as raging at the prince and blaming him for everything in front of his grieving parents; this scene also horribly casts narcissism in a positive light.

Originally made for young girls, the show has unexpectedly attracted a worldwide cult following of young adult to adult men who call themselves "Bronies", suggesting [[homosexuality]], or at the very least emotional immaturity, in the fanbase. Perhaps a much more apparent problem than these is the threat the cartoon poses to traditional ideas of masculinity as more men become attracted to it.

|Adult Swim
|TV-MA
|This adult animated series, whose titular characters were based on respective ludicrous caricatures of Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown and Marty McFly from the mostly conservative film ''Back to the Future'' (but soon grew into their own characters), is popular among liberals and atheist, Reddit-registered techno-libertarians alike for trying to pass a dysfunctional, atheistic family with a vulgar, drug-addicted, pansexual, [[alcoholism|alcoholic]] grandfather (Rick) as humorous. Worse yet, the series' volatile, fanatical fanbase is widely known for stirring up such controversies as rampaging en masse through various [[McDonald's]] restaurants in search of Szechuan sauce as if to imitate an example of Rick's unruly, disorderly behavior, which prompted several calls to local police departments, wasting tax payer monies: he seeks to claim the sauce in the episode "The Rickshank Redemption" by traveling back to 1998 when Disney released its [[China]]-set animated feature ''[[Mulan]]'' and McDonald's sold packets of Szechuan sauce with regular purchases as a cross-promotion of the film. Many of the science fiction elements of the show seem to contradict portions of Christian cosmology, such as interdimensional travel, allowing sinners to avoid the logical consequences of their actions. The institutions of marriage and pregnancy are not given the sacred coverage they deserve either.

|''Santa Inc.''
|2021

|
|This show, helmed by uber-leftists Seth Rogen and Sarah Silverman, was a disgusting and appalling desecration of Christmas, detailing Silverman's character, Santa's second in command elf, wanting to become the next Santa in order to overturn the white patriarchy due to viewing Santa as a white straight male (despite the fact that Santa Claus being white had historical basis due to being based on [[Saint Nicholas]] from the 4th century). It also depicts Mrs. Claus as a stripper and the reindeer as methamphetamine addicts, with one reindeer, Goldie, being depicted as bisexual, indicating a promotion of the homosexual agenda. It was so in-your-face in its contempt for the Christmas holiday that even the liberal [[Rotten Tomatoes]] stated it only had a 3% approval rating at best.

One episode features in the background of a stadium scene two men kissing each other and two women doing the same.

|''Star Wars: Resistance''

|Disney Channel
|TV-Y7
|Although critics and longtime fans of the ''Star Wars'' franchise have appropriately criticized Disney for making further far-left alterations to the franchise and its canon since Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm in 2012, this is perhaps the worst example of that trend. Taking place during the Sequel Trilogy (episodes VII-IX), the series' second season is yet another campaign homosexuality: in a similar situation to the Mr. Ratburn from ''Arthur'' being rewritten as gay, two aliens are heavily implied to be homosexual. When one Resistance member, Tamara Ryvora, defects to the First Order in another episode, she mentions that the latter group wants to "make the Galaxy safe again", in an unsubtle reference to Donald Trump's 2016 campaign slogan: "Make America Great Again."
|-
|''Steven Universe''
|2013-2019
|Cartoon Network
|TV-PG
|Don't let the cutesy character designs fool you in this one. On the surface, it looks like a harmless animated series about the beauty of family unity among a half-human-half-alien child, his benevolent human father, and his extraterrestrial friends who exist as sentient gemstones with holographic bodies made of light and help the boy discover his superpowers so he can protect earth from otherworldly threats. However, looks are deceiving—it really exposes children to several varieties of filth. First, the series teaches that gender confusion is "normal", as the alien characters, while they look like women, are actually androgynous, and it tries to use their androgyny to justify their lesbian and bisexual behavior (which is based on [https://www.autostraddle.com/rebecca-sugar-is-bisexual-steven-universe-creator-comes-out-at-comic-con-346094/ the series creator's bisexual lifestyle]). Because these sexless aliens look like women, the series has [[Feminism|feminist]] implications: the feminine-presenting aliens and even genuinely female humans are much more powerful or at least more competent than the male characters, many of whom are weak, silly, or incompetent. Sometimes, male characters show some form of competence, as when the hero's father Greg—a former [[Generation X]]-type rebel and community college dropout turned responsible parent—shows his strong parental instincts, skills with construction, or even defensive driving skills, but the feminists who rule the show give said male characters less credit than they deserve. Lastly, innuendoes are peppered throughout, especially in terms of "fusions", which were originally supposed to be battle tactics that involved combining the aliens' bodies and minds to form more powerful entities before the show's liberal writers shoehorned in the idea that fusions are expressions of the aliens' "love" for one another. Some episodes even feature Steven himself going from being male to being "fused" with female love interest Connie to make a disturbingly androgynous hybrid, dubbed ''Stevonnie'' by series regular Amethyst and shown to be one of the strongest characters in combat.

The quasi-[[Thanksgiving]]-themed episode "Gem Harvest" guest stars Andy DeMayo, Greg's cousin and a professional biplane pilot with openly conservative viewpoints who may be an expy of Archie Bunker from ''All in the Family'' since both are middle-aged conservative men with short tempers and strong [[New York City|New York]] accents. Andy's initially unsympathetic portrayal as well as the episode airing shortly after the [[2016 presidential election]] drew widespread criticism from fans, including, ironically, opponents of [[Donald Trump]], who argued that such political undertones were in poor taste.

The series' fan base, while it does not make up a large percent of the world's population, is one of the most vocally aggressive in the world. In October 2015, some fans [http://www.dailydot.com/parsec/steven-universe-fanartist-bullied-controversy/ bullied a teenage fan artist to attempt suicide] because she submitted fan art to the Internet in which she drew Steven's long-deceased, plump alien mother Rose Quartz as skinny. Subsequently, the fan base became so divided that the show's writers were forced to get involved. Likewise, series storyboard artist Lauren Zuke was harassed after she shared fan art on [[Twitter]] by those fans who believed she was advocating a "Lapidot" ship (that is, a fantasy relationship pairing between recurring gems Lapis Lazuli and Peridot) over other fan-preferred pairings of the show’s characters, none of which is official canon.

Similarly, some countries have the decency to censor or alter explicitly lesbian scenes and dialogue when they import certain episodes of the series, but when this happens, the liberal fans are guaranteed to complain and get their way like the spoiled, entitled adult children that many of them are.

The only positive thing we can say is thank goodness this series is not rated TV-Y.

I had the chance to spend a year examining my youth and how I became an active member of the 60s generation. If you are from that generation or a child of the 60s, I think you would find the entire series of value. To see my other work visit www.theHoffmancollection.com".</ref> He repeats the same liberal talking points about the [[1960s]], whether by claiming that the 1950s were stifling, making the 1960s inevitable, or by claiming the 1960s as a time of freedom and calling the early times innocent. Protestors against the Vietnam War, among them feminists (with at least one of the feminists, an air stewardess, falsely implying that women weren't allowed to pursue medical and science-related jobs during the 1950s, despite stating at the same time that nursing and air stewardess being two of only four jobs they were allowed to pursue besides being a stay at home mom, both of which required at least some degree of rudimentary medical knowledge for treating illnesses and injuries.), are portrayed positively as well.

|Although it promised to give an accurate account of the Vietnam War for the historical record, serve as an antidote to misuse of history, and contribute to healing America's national esteem for the post-Vietnam War era, and contribute to historical methodology, it does the exact opposite of its promises in the most blatant way. The violation of its promises were so flagrant that it resulted in PBS being sued and legally required to make ''Television's Vietnam: The Real Story'' a year later with cooperation from [[Accuracy in Media]].

Despite the show's questionable portrayal of Christ and the black community, reviewers claim that the character's method of spreading the Lord's message of love and compassion is present and may actually act as a way to reach the young and rebellious modern audience of today.

|''Brooklyn Nine-Nine''
|2013-Present
|Fox
|TV-14
|Main character Captain Holt is an open homosexual in charge of the fictitious 99th police precinct in Brooklyn, New York City. To make matters worse, series regular Rosa Diaz "comes out" as bisexual in the fifth season, disregarding the fact that no clues were given about this in the first four seasons. However, their sexualities are downplayed for the most part, and this workplace sitcom seems to humanize the police in an era when liberal news media does everything it can to dehumanize the authorities. It lightheartedly teaches that the police are likeable, relatable, three-dimensional everyday people with fairly normal internal and interpersonal obstacles to overcome in a humorous fashion; and it averts the preposterous liberal assumption that the police are racist with its multiracial main cast. On top of that, a number of villains that the detectives face are drug abusers or dealers, which supports war on illegal drugs, and main character Sgt. Terry Jeffords is a devout family man who prefers to act in the best interest of his wife and daughters, whom he does not want to see him killed in the line of duty.
|-
|''Dinosaurs''
|1991-1994
|ABC
|TV-Y7
|This work by Jim Henson of ''Muppets'' fame tells of a family of dinosaurs named the Sinclairs adjusting to suburban life after millions of years of wild living. There are Earl the father (a stubborn and bumbling ''Megalosaurus'' who works as a "tree-pusher"), Fran the mother (a down-to-earth ''Allosaurus'' who is a housewife), Robbie the son (a teenager who often questions the way dinosaurs do things like eating meat and howling at the moon), Charlene the daughter (a typical teenage girl), and the Baby (a fully-talking and rambunctious baby dinosaur who often calls Earl "Not the Mama!").

''Dinosaurs'' touches a lot of liberal subjects, from gender confusion to feminism to even socialism. An episode even has a scenario resembling people coming out as homosexuals, only that Robbie wants to be more herbivore than carnivore and eat more vegetables, which Earl sees as going against the food chain. Another episode features an in-show TV show about a dinosaur admitting that he's a "cross-eater" and says that he feels like a carnivore in an herbivore's body, which seems to be a metaphor for being transgender or a cross-dresser. The biggest subject the characters discuss throughout the series is environmentalism, from leaving forests intact to avoiding the eradication of endangered species. Sadly at the end of the series, wiping out a certain species of beetle that depends on a certain species of flower leads to the eventual extinction of the dinosaurs, who face certain doom from the resulting Ice Age.

But while the show features a lot of liberal subjects, there are also some conservative moments as well. Earl tries his best to act as the father of the household in spite of his bumbling ways, while Fran makes sure to keep the house running from the homestead. There are times when Robbie and Earl clash over ideas (like Robbie wanting to be a vegetarian instead of a carnivore), but they make up at the end of the day and support each other. At his tree-pushing job, Earl works under the supervision of his boss B.P. Richfield, a ''Styracosaurus'' and the tyrannical and greedy owner of the WESAYSO Corporation. Friendship is even upheld in "The Howling", where Robbie helps repair the friendship between Earl and his co-worker Roy (a ''Tyrannosaurus Rex'') by getting them to howl so that they can get rid of their aggression; in that same episode, Roy even gives Robbie a pencil box as a present - the same pencil box that his father had given to him on his Howling Day - because he wanted to pass it on to someone in spite of not having kids of his own, thus him seeing Robbie and the other Sinclairs as family.

|''Gravity Falls''
|2012-2016
|Disney Channel, later Disney XD
|TV-Y7
|Inspired by the life of its creator, Alex Hirsch, this mystery/science fiction/horror comedy series follows twin siblings Dipper and Mabel Pines as they spend as summer in the fictional town of Gravity Falls, [[Oregon]], investigating the supernatural oddities surrounding the town with guidance from one of three journals left behind by an initially anonymous author.

On the one hand, it stereotypes capitalists as either "criminals" or simply being obsessed with money: the twins' Great Uncle/"Grunkle" Stan is introduced as a relatively simple character whose only goal in life is to fool the "world's dumbest people" with a tourist trap dubbed The Mystery Shack and filled with pretend supernatural phenomena, hoping to earn their money. Even worse, throughout the series, recurring incompetent police officers Sheriff Blubbs and Deputy Durland are implied to have homosexual feelings for one another, and this is confirmed in the series finale.

On the other hand, family and redemption seem to be central themes of the series in the long run. When Stan's long-lost twin brother, Stanford "Ford" Pines, returns from being trapped in another dimension and reveals himself as the author of the journals, the brothers come to grips with their personal flaws, and Stan shows how he truly regrets leading a life of crime, wishing things could have turned out differently and calling himself "the screw-up". He gets his chance at redemption when he and Ford together outwit Bill Cipher, an interdimensional dream demon and the series' main antagonist, and erase the monster from existence, which causes them to mend their relationship.

|''[[Happy Days]]''
|1974-1984
|ABC
|TV-G
|Originally launched as a 1972 episode of ''Love, American Style'' called "Love and the Television Set" and set in the 1950s. The show was pro-family and celebrated family values, as the Cunningham family, the show's original main focus, always supported each other even through the rough times. The show is also pro-fatherhood. The show's main father figure, Howard Cunningham, is shown to be mature, calm and responsible, and always does his best to help his kids. Also a little anti-feminism, with Howard owning and running a hardware store and making all the money, and his wife Marion being the housewife. On the other hand, producers admitted to pushing [[pacifism]] and sentiments against the [[Vietnam War]] effort.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2011/jun/29/is-us-tv-too-leftwing</ref> Protagonist Richie Cunningham, a high school student played by Ron Howard as a regular from 1974 to 1980, is a supporter of the Democrat Party; as part of his school's Young Democrats club, he supports Democrat presidential candidate [[Adlai Stevenson]] in the 1956 election in the Season Two episode "The Not Making of a President" and, as such, is portrayed as young and idealistic yet naïve.

Debuting to modest ratings in January 1974 after ABC green-lit it to series, ''Happy Days'' became a huge hit in its later years after the emphasis was shifted more to formerly supporting character Arthur "The Fonz/Fonzie" Fonzarelli (played by Henry Winkler); a greaser, former gang member, womanizer, and high school dropout who nonetheless became increasingly popular with the series' audience and became the main focus of the show after Howard's departure. The series spawned several spinoffs, including ''Laverne & Shirley'', ''Mork & Mindy'' (created as a vehicle for stand-up comedian [[Robin Williams]]), and the animated series ''The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang''.

|
|An anime adapted from a series of hugely popular trading cards and video games. The later seasons cut out the more conservative messages to promote more liberal agendas, including having the various female characters starting with May (most of whom are ten years old and thus still children) essentially act as sexual fanservice according to then-director Masamitsu Hidaka (and, at least in the case of the female leads of AG, DP, and XY, their goals of acting as Pokémon Coordinator and Showcase Trainer seemed to promote fashion industry values), as well as later on the story's refusal until ''Sun & Moon'' to allow Ash to win a league despite it being necessary to have him become a Pokémon Master (with the most infamous example of this being the Ash vs. Alain fight in the final round of the Kalos League, which had Ash losing against Alain despite the series, including the actual Japanese episode title for the battle in question, all but strongly implying the exact opposite), and eventually by Sun and Moon delaying having Ash resume his goal until nearly 40 episodes later (as well as ultimately winning in that saga), thus initially resulting in a more nihilistic view of Ash's goal. In addition, a running gag since Hoenn and to some extent Johto has Brock constantly chasing women and trying to ask them out, depicting him as a womanizer in a more comedic light. Moreover, the concept of friendships that was strongly emphasized in prior seasons eventually got phased out due to them essentially dropping characters after each season with barely a reference to them.

However, the first few seasons showcased several conservative messages, including the strife to succeed even when the odds are considered insurmountable, as well as showing parental neglect and abandonment in a negative light in regards to the characters Brock and Misty, and to a certain extent one of the main villains Jessie. In addition, in the first season at least, there were also a few Christian references from Brock and Misty, and to some extent James. Pro-family values are present due to Misty becoming a mother to Togepi, and Brock also intending to aid his family when his parents weren't around due to the latter abandoning their children (or, in the case of the dub, the father abandoning them and the mother dying), only joining Ash after his father, Flint, returned and encouraged Brock to pursue his dreams. Was also anti-Hollywood Values as well, as the episode "Go West Young Meowth" showcases the more depraved nature of Hollywood, including at least one bickering couple, and does not treat it in a positive light, nor does Meowth's sweetheart, Meowzie, an epitome of Hollywood values, come across in a flattering light, with it also being heavily implied that this was the reason Meowth turned to villainy. Similarly, another episode during the first season dealt with a condemnation of fashion industry values as Team Rocket created a salon that heavily dolled up various Pokémon without taking into account their nature, which Suzie, Ash, and Brock condemned, and Misty initially supported to an extent only to pay the price later on when she tried to have Psyduck dolled up. One episode of DP also has an implicit condemnation of the homosexual agenda due to Brock calling Pikachu and Piplup (both of whom are confirmed male in an earlier episode) having an attraction to each other "unnatural." In addition, some episodes implicitly condemn the concept of Social Darwinism by showing various trainers who care only about Pokémon who are powerful and instantly abandon them if they show any sign of weakness in a very negative light.
|-
|''The PowerPuff Girls''
|1998-2005, Reboot 2016-Present
|Cartoon Network
|TV-Y
|On the one hand, the three titular superhero girls seem to be the only protagonists capable of fighting their city’s various supervillains, while the police, consisting mostly of men, are depicted as bumbling and oafish, making the girls feministic (It doesn’t help that one of the working titles for the show was the more profane ''Whoop*** Girls''). Moreover, innuendoes may be sprinkled throughout (and are more apparent in the 2016 reboot series, much to the chagrin of even the most devoted fans).

On the other hand, since the girls were created by a scientist to be the “perfect little girls,” they could be more femin''ine'' rather than feminist. They try to fit into traditional gender roles despite their capabilities, and they learn family values from the professor who made them and serves as a responsible, knowledgeable, reasonable, tough but forgiving father-figure well-versed in various scientific disciplines. Plus, the recurring antagonist “Him” is an obvious reference to [[Satan]], which hints at support for Christianity; and he is an androgynous being who demonstrates some effeminate traits, which unsympathetically depicts and satirizes gender confusion and homosexual lifestyles, respectively. Lastly, minor villain Femme Fatale personifies the feminist ideology as her crimes are built around feminist hypocrisy.
|-
|''SpongeBob SquarePants''
|1999-Present
|Nickelodeon
|TV-Y
|One of the most influential cartoons of the 21st century, centered on an energetic, anthropomorphic sea sponge (who more nearly resembles a kitchen sponge) and a diverse cast of his underwater friends, is decidedly one of the most politically ambiguous.

On the one hand, the series suggests that capitalists are inherently malign or simply obsessed with money, as the main character’s crustacean employer, the fast food restaurateur Mr. Krabs, is inclined to put money before others’ interests, sometimes at the expense of others’ well-being. In addition, SpongeBob and his dimwitted starfish best friend Patrick Star have a habit of annoying Squidward Tentacles: a quick-tempered, cynical octopus who lives between them, behaves apathetically on his job as a cashier, and may be a copy of ''Sesame Street'' character Bert because both characters have interests that others find mundane. They tend to not face comeuppance for their childish actions against Squidward (though there are exceptions), which may teach that being annoying is “acceptable” adult behavior. Specific episodes have controversial overtones, too. For instance, “Rock-a-Bye Bivalve” is infamous for depicting SpongeBob and Patrick raising a baby scallop like a homosexual couple; and a handful of episodes like "The Jellyfish Hunter", "Keep Bikini Bottom Beautiful", and "SpongeBob's Last Stand" touch on themes of environmentalism. Moreover, one of the series’ worst-received episodes, “One Coarse Meal,” tries to make bullying look humorous because it centers on Mr. Krabs driving his microscopic arch business rival Plankton to suicide by appealing to the copepod’s secret fear of whales, a fear not present in any other episode. SpongeBob himself even displays some flamboyant tendencies that can be seen as gay, though Stephen Hillenburg had stated that SpongeBob would reproduce asexually like normal sponges (splitting into newer sponges); 2020 has Nickelodeon disregard this information to push SpongeBob to be a "queer icon".<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2020/06/15/nickelodeon-celebrates-pride-month-with-queer-icon-spongebob-bisexual-and-trans-characters/</ref>

On the other hand, many episodes where SpongeBob works in his regular job as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab restaurant teach young audiences to appreciate hard work and persistence as SpongeBob eagerly strives to make the most out of his rather ordinary vocation. Most episodes where Plankton appears draw a clear distinction between good and evil, showing the errors of stealing and conducting business through illegitimate means as Plankton’s schemes to outcompete Mr. Krabs, the more competent businessman, or steal his Krabby Patty recipe always backfire. In addition, depending on the writer(s), Krabs can serve as a surrogate father-figure to SpongeBob, teaching him to stay out of danger and not to act so impulsively as he usually does. Lastly, the episode "SpongeBob, You're Fired!" has gained fame among conservatives for advocating self-sufficiency while lampooning the concept of the welfare state, mainly the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program: as Patrick tries to show SpongeBob the "benefits of being unemployed" by taking SpongeBob out to a free lunch with Sandy, SpongeBob quips, "Unemployment may be fun for you, but I need to get a job".<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2013/11/04/spongebob-mocks-welfare-state/</ref>

Bonobo

Shobson20: Reverted edits by Jackgoff2 (talk) to last revision by RobSmith

[[Image:Bonobo.jpg|right|thumb|200px]]
'''Bonobos''', or "pygmy [[chimpanzees]]", are an endangered<ref>[http://pin.primate.wisc.edu/factsheets/entry/bonobo/cons PrimateInfo.Net]</ref> ape species in the genus ''Pan'' (the only other being the common chimp). Bonobos are claimed to be more peaceful and social than the common chimpanzee. Bonobos supposedly share about 98% of their [[DNA]] with humans and slightly more than the common chimpanzee shares with humans.<ref name="Columbus Zoo">[http://www.colszoo.org/animalareas/aforest/bonobo.html Bonobos] at the Columbus Zoo</ref> Unlike many other apes, they walk upright a significant fraction of the time.

== Anatomy and Behavior ==
Females are smaller than males but unlike in many other ape species the female hierarchy of dominance matters more than that of the males. Bonobos pass the mirror test and have facial expressions close enough to those of humans such that humans can often recognize what emotion a bonobo is expressing.<ref name="Columbus Zoo"/> Individual bonobos also have very different facial features such that humans can easily differentiate one bonobo from another.

Proponents of evolutionary psychology often point to bonobos as examples of an evolutionary adaptation in which a species acquired the strategy of bartering sex to enhance social status or to resolve disputes.<ref>[http://songweaver.com/info/bonobos.html Bonobo Sex and Society]</ref>

The American Psychiatric Association taught for decades that homosexuality is a mental disorder that can be treated, until political pressure compelled it to change its view. The National Association for Research & Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) points out that the bonobo behavior is not sexual but rather are aggressive acts to assert dominance much like when a dog mounts a person's leg.<ref>Luiz Sérgio Solimeo, [http://www.narth.com/docs/animalmyth.html "The Animal Homosexuality Myth,"] NARTH.</ref> Yet homosexual activists have claimed that bonobos are examples of animals who sometimes perform homosexual acts,<ref>Chris Bull, [http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1589/is_n735/ai_20164884 Monkey love - homosexual behavior in primates,] The Advocate, June 10, 1997.3</ref><ref>Steve Sailer, [http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1282/is_1999_Sept_27/ai_55820853 "Chimps and Chumps : What monkeys don't tell us about man,"] National Review, Sept 27, 1999.</ref>

It is also common for adult bonobos to have sex with juvenile bonobos.<ref>De Waal, F. (1990). Sociosexual behavior used for tension regulation in all age and sex combinations among Bonobos. In J.

'''Ladda Tammy Duckworth''' (born March 12, 1968) is a [[United States Senator]] from the state of [[Illinois]], serving since 2017, and a former [[U.S. Representative]] for Illinois's 8th congressional district, from 2013 to 2017. Duckworth also served as a former Assistant Secretary for Public and Intergovernmental Affairs in the [[Department of Veterans Affairs|United States Department of Veterans Affairs]] and the 2006 Democrat nominee for Illinois's 6th congressional district. She is a [[Liberal|left-wing]] Democrat<ref>[https://www.ontheissues.org/IL/Tammy_Duckworth.htm Tammy Duckworth on the Issues]</ref> and [[racist]] who refuses to vote for any [[white]] people.<ref>https://www.rollcall.com/2021/03/23/duckworth-to-vote-no-on-non-diverse-biden-nominees/</ref>

==Political career==
Despite having served in Iraq, Duckworth opposed and opposes [[Operation Iraqi Freedom]], making this a central theme of her 2006 campaign. Despite this, and despite massive endorsements from various [[liberal]] politicians, such as former President [[Bill Clinton]], and [[Hollywood]] figures, Duckworth lost the election by 2%. Some have blamed this defeat on a focus on non-local issues, compared to her opponent, [[Peter Roskam]], a Republican local politician, and for constant criticism of foreign policy.{{fact}} At age 90 Chicago [[Communist Party USA]] member Frank Lumpkin was still active, including a labor walk for Tammy Duckworth, a candidate for Congress in 2006 in the 6th CD in Illinois.<ref>http://peoplesworld.org/frank-lumpkin-saint-of-chicago-dies-at-9/</ref>

In September 2008, Chicago based [[socialist]] journal ''In These Times'' asked its editors and writers to suggest their top [[progressive]] choices for a potential Obama Cabinet.<ref>[http://www.inthesetimes.com/article/3933/ In These Times, 22 to KnowOur Picks for an Obama Cabinet, By In These Times Editors and Contributors, September 26, 2008]</ref>

:''We asked that contributors weigh ideological and political considerations, with an eye toward recommending people who have both progressive credentials and at least an arguable chance at being appointed in an Obama White House.
''
:''This group of people would represent at once the most progressive, aggressive and practical Cabinet in contemporary history. Of course, it is by no means a definitive list. It is merely one proposal aimed at starting a longer discussion about the very concept of a progressive Cabinet—and why it will be important to a new administration, especially if that administration is serious about change.''

Luis Carlos Montalván suggested Tammy Duckworth for Secretary of Veterans Affairs:

:''The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is the federal government’s second largest department (after defense). With an annual budget of more than $90 billion, the VA employs more than 230,000 people at hundreds of VA medical centers, clinics and benefits offices that assist many of the 60 million U.S. veterans and their families.''

:''But the Bush administration has woefully mismanaged the department, which is suffering from overcrowded facilities, lengthy waiting lists and a backlog of disability claims. The present state of affairs is the result of poor leadership and a failure to anticipate and allocate the requisite funding to support the needs of an escalating veteran population.
''
:''According to Nobel Prize laureate Joseph Stiglitz, “The number of disability claims exceeds 600,000, with another 1.6 million claims expected in the next two years.” Overcrowded VA mental health facilities cannot provide comprehensive care to the hundreds of thousands of veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress. Not surprisingly, the suicide rate among veterans and service members is the highest it has ever been.''

:''Maj. Tammy Duckworth, a double amputee pilot of the Iraq War, has the character and credentials to serve as our nation’s secretary of veterans affairs. Her years of distinguished military service and her firsthand knowledge of the VA system — she has served as director of the Illinois Department of Veterans’ Affairs since 2006 — would serve her well.
''
:''Duckworth is the best choice to deliver what millions of veterans need — and have failed to receive from the current administration.''

Duckworth was appointed to her former role as Assistant Secretary of Public and Intergovernmental Affairs for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs by President [[Barack Obama]] in 2009. She resigned from that position on Monday, June 30, 2011. In July 2011 she launched her campaign to run in 2012 for Illinois's 8th congressional district against conservative Congressman [[Joe Walsh]], who she won the election against due to redistricting by the Democrat-controlled Illinois legislature.

====Awan scandal====

:{{See also|Democrat IT scandal}}
Three brothers who managed office information technology for members of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and other lawmakers were abruptly relieved of their duties, on suspicion that they accessed congressional computers without permission.

Brothers Abid Awan, Imran Awan, and Jamal Awan were barred from computer networks at the House of Representatives Thursday February 2, 2017.

Three members of the intelligence panel and five members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs were among the dozens of members who employed the suspects on a shared basis.

Also among those whose computer systems may have been compromised is Rep. [[Debbie Wasserman Schultz]], the Florida Democrat who was previously the target of a disastrous email hack when she served as chairman of the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 campaign.

The brothers are suspected of serious violations, including accessing members’ computer networks without their knowledge and stealing equipment from Congress.

Jamal handled IT for Rep. [[Joaquin Castro]], a Texas Democrat who serves on both the intelligence and foreign affairs panels.

“As of 2/2, his employment with our office has been terminated,” Castro spokeswoman Erin Hatch told TheDCNF.

Jamal Awan also worked for Louisiana Democrat Rep. [[Cedric Richmond]], who is on the Committee on Homeland Security.

Imran worked for Reps. Andre Carson, an Indiana Democrat, and [[Jackie Speier]], a California Democrat. Both are members of the intelligence committee. Imran Awan, also worked for the House office of Wasserman Schultz.

Then-Rep. Tammy Duckworth, an Illinois Democrat, employed Abid Awan for IT work in 2016. She was a member of House committees dealing with the armed services, oversight, and Benghazi. Duckworth was elected to the Senate in November, 2016. Abid Awan has a prior criminal record and a bankruptcy.

Abid Awan also worked for Rep. [[Lois Frankel]], a Florida Democrat who is member of the foreign affairs committee.

The three men are “shared employees,” meaning they are hired by multiple offices, which split their salaries and use them as needed for IT services. It is up to each member to fire them.

A criminal investigation into five unnamed people began late last year related to serious and potentially illegal violations of House IT policies. Chiefs of staff for the members were briefed Thursday by the Sergeant-at-Arms.

[[Capitol Police]] spokeswoman Eva Malecki said the investigation was still ongoing, and arrests have not been made but staff were “asked to update their security settings.”

The Sergeant-at-Arms told staff that the subjects were four men who were brothers and one woman. It did not name them. It quoted one of the affected members as saying “they said it was some sort of procurement scam, but now I’m concerned that they may have stolen data from us, emails, who knows.”

The three brothers have all shared a house in Lorton, [[Virginia]], that is owned by Hina Alvi. Alvi is a female House IT employee who works for many of the same members as the three brothers, as well as the House Democratic Caucus. Alvi has worked for reps [[Gregory Meeks]], [[Yvette Clarke]], [[Dave Loebsack]], and [[Emanuel Cleaver]].

Signs of trouble have long been visible in public records. The Congressional Credit Union repossessed Abid’s car in 2009, and he declared bankruptcy in 2012, facing multiple lawsuits.

Alvi, who did not respond to TheDCNF’s request for comment, has taken multiple second mortgages.

Jack Langer, spokesman for the intelligence committee, said the committee office has its own IT staff and security measures and classified information from the panel is not allowed to be sent to members’ personal offices.<ref>[http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/04/exclusive-house-intelligence-it-staffers-fired-in-computer-security-probe/ The Daily Caller, LUKE ROSIAK11:12 AM 02/04/2017]</ref>

====China connection====
The Committee of 100 convened its 22nd Annual Common Ground Conference April 24-25 2013 in Washington, D.C. The Conference Co-Chairs were Howard Li, Theodore Wang, and Benjamin Wu. The Platinum Sponsors for the Conference included J.T. Tai & Co. Foundation, represented by Ming Hsu, and Wells Fargo, represented by Nancy Wong.

The conference events began with the Opening Reception, held at the Kennedy Caucus Room in the Russell Senate Office Building. Congress woman [[Nancy Pelosi]], House Minority Leader in the U.S. House of Representatives, and Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth, U.S. Representative of the 8th District of Illinois, welcomed C-100 participants to the historic space and discussed the contributions of C-100 to strengthening U.S.-China relations.

On April 25, the Annual Conference and Gala took place. The conference addressed four issues central to U.S.-China relations: building strategic trust in the bilateral relationship; economic cooperation and competition; Chinese investment in the United States; and media portrayals of China in U.S. political campaigns. [[Zbigniew Brzezinski]], former National Security Advisor (1977-1981), and Gao Xiqing, Vice Chairman and President of the China Investment Corporation, presented keynote addresses.<ref>[http://committee100.typepad.com/committee_of_100_newslett/2013/05/conference.html#more C100 Conference ]</ref>

====Abolish ICE====
:{{See also|Abolish ICE}}
They came from all over, took planes and buses from 47 states, slept at friends' homes or in churches and prepared to be arrested Thursday June 27, 2018 in Washington, D.C. Most of the participants were white women, stumbling over the syllables of Spanish-language chants.

Capitol Police said 575 protesters were arrested and escorted out of the Hart Senate Office Building in a mass demonstration that called for the abolishment of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, and an end to migrant family detentions and the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" immigration policy. They were charged with unlawfully demonstrating.

"I have two kids, and as a white mother, there is almost no circumstance that they would be taken away from me - ever," said Victoria Farris, who slept Wednesday night in All Souls Church after participating in civil disobedience training. "I was awake one night because I couldn't sleep thinking about all those [immigrant] mothers and terrified children. I realized I had to do something more than protest, more than make a sign and march."

Protesters unfurled banners inside the Hart building Thursday as others staged a sit-in, wrapping themselves in shiny, silver space blankets. The political banners, which aren't allowed in the building's lobby, were confiscated by police. Then the arrests began.

Just after 3 p.m., protesters were rounded up in groups of a dozen or more and led out of the building. "Abolish ICE," they shouted as more were moved out. "Shut it down." Demonstrators continued to sing and chant as they were led away. When the first group was escorted out of the building, the remaining crowd erupted in cheers.

As police continued to clear the area, several senators greeted demonstrators, including [[Kirsten Gillibrand]], D-N.Y., and Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill.

"I join them in calling on the Trump administration to reunite these families and give these kids back to their parents," Duckworth said. "On my side of things, I ask my colleagues, let's pass, finally, sensible immigration reform."

Rep. [[Pramila Jayapal]], D-Wash., joined in the protest and was led out with marchers by Capitol Police. Actress Susan Sarandon, who marched at the front as the protest made its way down Constitution Avenue, was arrested with a group of demonstrators.

The protest began hours earlier at Freedom Plaza, where hundreds of women robed in white and carrying signs deriding the Trump administration's immigration policy had gathered. The protest was organized by a coalition of groups, including the [[Women's March]] and the immigrant advocacy organization Casa de Maryland. Several participants wrote "WE CARE" on their palms, a rebuke of the jacket first lady Melania Trump wore on her first trip to visit detained children near the border.

Ana Maria Archila, executive director of Center for Popular Democracy, said calling for the disbandment of ICE "would have seemed absurd even a few months ago." But now it is central to the mission of her group and Thursday's march. "This country has finally been exposed to the brutality and inhumanity of immigration enforcement," she said. "This barrage of injustices has inspired us to say, 'No more. We will not be silent. We will not obey.' "

After gathering at Freedom Plaza, the group marched to the [[Justice Department]] before heading to the Hart building, singing hymns and protest songs all the way. Organizers of the D.C. rally said similar protests will take place in 351 congressional districts across the country.<ref>[http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-arrested-women-trump-immigration-policy-20180628-story.html Chicago Tribune, June 28, 2018]</ref>

Dogwhistle

2022-01-29T15:52:11Z

Shobson20: /* List of common dogwhistles */

[[File:8645.png|right|350px|thumb|Gov. [[Gretchen Whitmer]] sent a dogwhistle urging [[violence]] and the assassination of [[President Donald J. Trump]] to a nationwide audience on [[NBC]]'s ''[[Meet the Press]]''.<ref>https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/critics-say-whitmers-8645-sticker-was-call-to-kill-trump/ar-BB1aaOMm</ref>]]
A '''dog whistle''' or '''code words''' is a communication strategy that sends a message which the general population will take one meaning from, but a certain group "in the know" will take away another secret, intended message, often involving [[racism]]. For example, during the [[2020 Presidential election]], [[Democrat]] nominee [[Joe Biden]] dog whistled [[white privilege]] to the vital "suburban" [[demographic]] vote necessary to win election:
{{quotebox-float|"You know what is actually threatening our suburbs? Wildfires are burning the suburbs of the west. Floods are wiping out suburban neighborhoods in the [[Midwest]]. Hurricanes are imperiling suburban life along our coast. If we have four more years of [[Trump]]'s [[climate denial]], how many suburbs will be burned in wildfires? How many suburban neighborhoods will have been flooded out? How many suburbs will have been blown away in superstorms?"<ref>https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4906404/wildfires-integration-threaten-suburbs-joe-biden-warns-climate-change-speech</ref>}}
When de-coded, the message actually reads:
{{quotebox-float|"You know what is actually threatening our white privilege? Wildfires are burning the white neighborhoods of the west. Floods are wiping out white neighborhoods in the [[Midwest]]. Hurricanes are imperiling white privilege along our coast. If we have four more years of Trump's climate denial, how many white neighborhoods will be burned in wildfires? How many white neighborhoods will have been flooded out? How many white neighborhoods will have been blown away in superstorms?"}}
Sometimes a dog whistle can be delivered with a gesture. For example, during the [[Hillary Clinton 2008 presidential campaign|2008 Democrat primaries]] between a black man, [[Barack Obama]], and a white woman, [[Hillary Clinton]], former President [[Bill Clinton]] campaigning for his wife said "[[John McCain]] is a fine man" holding a thumbs up,<ref>https://www.mcall.com/news/mc-xpm-2008-03-23-4025939-story.html</ref> implying to the audience of Democrats to favor the white candidate in the primary or general election, should his wife lose the nomination to Barack Obama.

Overcoming homosexuality

{{homosexuality}}

'''Overcoming homosexuality''' is definitely possible for those who wish to abandon [[homosexuality]], and many [[ex-homosexuals]] attest to this matter. Today many report overcoming homosexuality and becoming heterosexuals or celibate through their [[Christianity|Christian]] [[faith]] or healthy activities,<ref>

</ref> including celebrities.

In 1980, a study was published in the ''American Journal of Psychiatry'' and eleven men participated in this study. The aforementioned study stated that eleven homosexual men became heterosexuals "without explicit treatment and/or long-term psychotherapy" through their participation in a [[Pentecostalism|Pentecostal]] church.<ref>[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7435713 E.M. Pattison and M.L. Pattison, "'Ex-Gays': Religiously Mediated Change in Homosexuals," American Journal of Psychiatry, Vol. 137, pp. 1553-1562, 1980]</ref>

Many people do not understand the [[Causes of Homosexuality|causes of homosexuality]] so they mistakenly believe that overcoming homosexuality is not an available option. However, the [[Apostle Paul]] offered great hope to those who wish to overcome homosexuality when he wrote;
{{cquote|Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." - I Corinthians 6:9-11 (NIV)}}

[[Peter LaBarbera]] is the President of [[Americans for Truth]] which is an organization which counters the [[Homosexual Agenda|homosexual agenda]]. Peter LaBarbera stated the following regarding Christian ex-homosexuals who reported being transformed by the power of God:
{{cquote|Another factor from my experience as a close observer of the “ex-gay” phenomenon is that many former homosexuals do not linger in “[[Reparative Therapy|reparative therapy]]” programs, or participate in them at all. They attribute their dramatic and (relatively) rapid transformation to the power of God, and likely would not show up in a study of this kind. In fact, these “unstudied” overcomers would appear to be the most successful ex-homosexuals because they’ve moved on with their lives — as “reborn” Christians move on after overcoming any besetting sin.<ref>[http://americansfortruth.com/2007/09/16/landmark-study-change-for-homosexuals-is-possible/ Landmark study - Change for homosexuals is still possible]</ref>}}

==Testimony of an Ex-Homosexual Pastor Darryl L. Foster==

Pastor D. L. Foster, an [[Ex-homosexuals|ex-homosexual]], states the following regarding overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|Former homosexuals joyfully point to one definitive Scripture that mentions them and the redemptive process they are embracing: "Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites ... will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God" ([http://nasb.scripturetext.com/1_corinthians/6.htm 1 Cor. 6:9-11]).

When I met and married my wife, Dee, almost 12 years ago, she and I both were clueless about what my post-homosexual life would be like. As painful as my past sin was to me, my wife was not the cause of my change; rather, she was the fruit of my change...

Our responsibility as Christians is to pour love out without measure on those who struggle to overcome homosexuality. Compassion was the hallmark of the Chief Shepherd, and as His disciples, we should be characterized by it too as we encourage them to embrace the freedom Christ offers.<ref>Charisma Magazine, online</ref>}}

==Testimony of an Ex-Lesbian Jeanette Howard Regarding Overcoming Homosexuality==
Below is a portion of a testimonial from the ex-lesbian Jeanette Howard in regards to her overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|Growing up, I felt strangely alienated from other girls. But I couldn't identify with boys either. I didn't seem to belong anywhere. Who was I, anyway?}}

"Jeanette, stand in front of the mirror every morning and thank God that He's made you a woman." This challenge came from a teacher at the Bible school I attended as a young Christian. What a ridiculous task! I thought, but reluctantly agreed. The next morning I got up and struggled to look at myself in the mirror. Try as I would, I could not acknowledge myself as a female....

Then came a breakthrough during a retreat in February, 1989. "You have believed a lie", [[God]] told me, "but I'm going to change your name". From now on, He showed me, I was to be called "woman". This was God's intention for me from my conception.

In faith I received my new name. Almost immediately I felt a weight fall away from me. In amazement, I looked around at the other women. No longer did I feel distanced from them; we were united by a common bond in Jesus Christ.

That day, the wall I had erected as a child came tumbling down. I entered into my rightful role as a woman of Christ. I felt as though I belonged-at long last.

As I have entered into my identity as a woman, God is healing my views on men. Now I see them as having a major role in my life. We complement each other, and I realize now that my life has been enriched because of them...<ref>Testimony formerly posted at Leadership University website</ref>

==Testimony of Ex-Lesbian Luanna Hansberger==
Ex-Lesbian Luanna Hasberger stated the following regarding conquering homosexuality:
{{cquote|I prayed every night for years that God would undo the mistake He had made: "God, please make me a boy."

Most of the people who knew me when I was growing up would probably have a hard time believing what my life was like during my twenties, when I became involved in the seemingly hopeless morass of a lesbian relationship...

My friends encouraged me to contact Regeneration, a local ministry which reaches out to those seeking a way out of homosexuality. Thus, in January 1981, the healing process was accelerated.

When I first came to the ministry I was extremely shy and introverted. I bounced back and forth between a masculine and a feminine identity...

The friends I first shared with continue to be a great help and support for me. That support has carried on literally from around the world as they have moved about with the military. At the end of March 1985, I got out of the Army to go to work for Regeneration. During the time since entering full time Christian service, I can really see the changes the Lord has made in me. Through Him I can now not only accept, but rejoice in, my femininity. I am now joyfully preparing for marriage. I praise the Lord for the work He has done in my life. When I was born female, God didn't make a mistake!<ref>Posted at the former website stonewallrevisited.com</ref>}}

==Concerned Women of American Regarding Overcoming Homosexuality==
The organization [[Concerned Women of America]] states the following regarding overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|Homosexual behavior can be conquered, as evidenced by the thousands of people who have completely given up the lifestyle...

If homosexual behavior [[Homosexuality and Genetics|were thought to be inborn]], Scripture would not have said, "Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another." (Romans 1:[http://scripturetext.com/romans/1-26.htm 26]-[http://scripturetext.com/romans/1-27.htm 27]). The clear implication is that the homosexual acts were deliberate choices.

If homosexual behavior were thought to be unchangeable, Scripture would not have said, "And that is what some of you were [past tense]. But you have been washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." (1 Corinthians 6:[http://scripturetext.com/1_corinthians/6-11.htm 11])<ref>http://www.cwfa.org/articles/3456/CFI/cfreport/index.htm</ref>}}
==Christians and Helping Others in Respect to Overcoming Homosexuality==
[[Image:Mark_copeland.jpg‎|right|thumb|200px|Pastor Mark A. Copeland]]
Pastor Mark A. Copeland states the following regarding Christians helping others in regards to overcoming homosexuality:
{{cquote|BE READY TO ASSIST THOSE WHO DESIRE TO OVERCOME HOMOSEXUALITY

Even as Jesus was quick to receive sinners and to lead them to the way of righteousness and life
everlasting, so should those who claim to be His disciples. Again, the challenge will be to do it in the
proper way.

Paul's instructions to the Galatians can serve as good beginning:

"Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." (Ga 6:[http://scripturetext.com/galatians/6-1.htm 1]-[http://scripturetext.com/galatians/6-2.htm 2])

In a spirit of gentleness we need to be able to show them how, and to provide the encouragement they will
need along the way.<ref>http://christianlibrary.org/authors/Mark_A_Copeland/hom/hom.pdf</ref>}}

==Television Show Cuts Message of Christian Who Overcame Homosexuality==
[[Image:StephenBennett.jpg‎|left|thumb|150px|Stephen Bennett]]
The organization [[Concerned Women of America]] states the following regarding an instance of [[Homosexuality in the Media|how the media and covers ex-homosexuals and the homosexuality issue]]:
{{cquote|Stephen Bennett, a former homosexual and Christian recording artist who runs a ministry to free people from homosexuality, saw his testimony cut from an appearance on The Ananda Lewis Show, a syndicated TV talk program that airs on [[WB]], [[NBC]] and [[CBS]] affiliates. The program in question aired on Tuesday (February 19, 2002) in several markets.

Not only was any mention of [[Jesus]] dropped from Bennett's six-minute segment, but he charges that the show had a misleading caption on the screen while he and his wife Irene were featured. The title read: "Says he and his wife pray daily that he doesn't revert to being gay."

This gave the impression that Mr. Bennett had told them he was still struggling with homosexuality. But Bennett, who left homosexuality behind when he accepted Jesus Christ years ago, had said during pre-interviews that he was completely healed and had no homosexual temptations. He said that neither he nor Irene told anyone on the show that he was struggling...

"I just can't get over how this completely misrepresented me," Bennett told C&F Report. He said he knew that the show's lineup would be lopsided, but, "they completely lied about my story" by leaving out how he overcame homosexuality.<ref>http://www.cultureandfamily.org/articledisplay.asp?id=450&department=CFI&categoryid=cfreport</ref>}}

==Criticism==
Some people who claimed to have overcome homosexuality have reverted or continued to dabble in aspects of the homosexual lifestyle. However, the same can be said of any sin. For example, people with illegal drug use problems who leave that lifestyle can later relapse and start taking illegal drugs again.

Among Us

[[File:Among Us logo.svg.png|thumbnail|right|The Among Us logo.]]

'''Among Us''' is a video game released by Innersloth. It is an online multiplayer social deduction game. While initially released in 2018 to little mainstream attention, it received an influx of popularity in 2020 due to many well-known Twitch streamers and YouTubers playing it. In response to the game's popularity, a sequel, Among Us 2, was announced in August 2020. However, a month later in September, the planned sequel was cancelled, with the team instead shifting focus to improving the original game.

==Gameplay==

3 to 9 players are crewmates. Their job is to complete tasks and find and eject the impostors from the ship. 1 to 3 players are impostors. The Impostor's role is to sabotage and kill everyone onboard. The Crewmate's role is to do tasks and try to figure out who the Impostors are. When the players find a dead body, they can report it, and a meeting is called. The impostors must lie and blame others for the murder. If someone sees an impostor go into a vent or they have other reasons to believe a player is an impostor, they can call an emergency meeting.

The Crewmates win by completing all tasks before being killed or by finding and eliminating all the Impostors. For the Impostors to win, they must either have a sabotage countdown run out or kill enough Crewmates such that the number of Impostors is equal to the number of Crewmates. Ghosts help their living teammates by completing tasks (as a Crewmate) or performing sabotages (as an Impostor). When an Impostor performs a sabotage, either there is an immediate consequence (such as all the lights being turned off or doors being closed) or a countdown begins. In the latter case, if the sabotage is not resolved before the countdown finishes, the Impostors win. Sabotages can be resolved by living players in varying ways depending on which sabotage is performed.

The Impostors must lie and deceive during meetings in order to not get caught. It is possible for Impostors to report their own kills (self-reporting). This can increase the Crewmates trust in the Impostor, or do the opposite. The Impostors can go into vents that take them to other locations in the ship to hide, run away, travel faster, or help with kills, but if the Crewmates see this, they know they are an Impostor and can call an emergency meeting to vote them off.

While the host can choose to have up to 3 Impostors, the usual settings are 4-1 Crewmates to Impostor. The 2 most played setups are 5 players, 1 Impostor, and 10 players, 2 Impostors. As you can't have more than 10 players in a game, there is no way to play with 3 Impostors that is considered balanced.

==Issues with cheating==

Because the game is mostly client sided, it is very easy to cheat. Cheats in this game include always being an Impostor, no kill cooldown, seeing who is the Impostor as a crewmate, wall hacking, and ESP. There is no anti-cheat, making cheating even easier. While it is considered pointless to cheat as there is no 'score', people still do.

On October 21, 2020, someone by the username Eris Loris created a large number of bots to join every game and spam the message 'You're mad, I'm back. Subscribe to Eris Loris | Vote TRUMP 2020' as well as his Discord link, which was banned within 4 hours. Innersloth shut down the game within 48 hours, and made a tweet documenting the situation. Eris was later [[doxing|doxed]], with his address, phone number, and email leaked.

A '''conservative''' is someone who promotes [[moral]] and [[economic]] values beneficial to all. A conservative is willing to learn and advocate the insights of [[economics]] and the logic of the [[Bible]] for the benefit of everyone else. A conservative favors conserving value by not giving handouts to anyone who does not really need them. Conservatives are often innovative, such as [[supply-side economics]] and [[Romanticism]].

A conservative typically adheres to principles of personal [[responsibility]], moral values, and [[limited government]], agreeing with [[George Washington]]'s [[Farewell Address]] that "[[religion]] and [[morality]] are indispensable supports" to political prosperity.<ref>[http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/democrac/49.htm United States Department of State] George Washington, farewell address, 1796</ref><ref>[[Merriam-Webster]]'s Online Dictionary has the following definition of conservative: "tending or disposed to maintain existing views, conditions, or institutions : TRADITIONAL"[http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/conservative] Therefore, a conservative Christian would be one that tends to adhere to the morally sound doctrines of the early Christianity and [[Judeo-Christian]] values.</ref>

Religious conservatism is a big driver of [[social conservatism]]. Religious conservatism is growing in the world and it is affecting politics (see: [[Religious conservatism and politics]]).

[[Phil Crane]], the leading conservative congressman in the [[House]] from 1969 to 2005, urged people to make the world a better place than where they found it, and quoted frequently from the [[Bible]] in pursuit of that goal.<ref>http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-phil-crane-obituary-20141109-story.html</ref>

Former President [[Ronald Reagan]] said, "The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom."<ref>http://www.reason.com/news/show/29318.html</ref>
[[File:460px-Calvin Coolidge photo portrait head and shoulders.jpg|200px|thumb|[[Calvin Coolidge]], the 30th President of the United States, was a conservative who said, "Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong."]]

===Hall of Fame===
Conservative scholar Clinton Rossiter<ref>Rossiter, "The Giants of American Conservatism," ''American Heritage'' 1955 6(6): 56-59, 94-96, online in [[EBSCO]]</ref> names [[Alexander Hamilton]], [[John Adams]], [[John Marshall]], [[Daniel Webster]], [[John C. Calhoun]], [[Elihu Root]], and [[Theodore Roosevelt]] to the "Conservative's Hall of Fame,"'' with John Adams as the greatest of American conservatives—a dubious choice since President Adams was an ardent opponent of [[free speech]] to criticize government.

==U.S. voters==
In America, most conservatives support the [[Republican Party]], but not exclusively so. In the 2008 election, 35% of the voters identified themselves as conservatives. Of them, 78% voted for [[John McCain]] and 20% for [[Barack Hussein Obama]], with the 20% accounting for Obama's margin of victory. Only 22% of the voters were liberal; they favored Obama 89%-10%. In the middle were 44% who called themselves moderates. They split for Obama by 60%-39%. (Minor candidates won 2% of the vote.)<ref>See [https://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/results/polls/#USP00p1 Presidential 2008 Exit Poll]</ref>
[[File:Russell Kirk.jpg|thumbnail|300px|[[Russell Kirk]] was an American political theorist, conservative intellectual, historian of ideas, social critic, and man of letters, who is best known for his role in the American conservative movement. ]]
Conservatives generally understand liberals better than liberals understand conservatives.<ref>[https://theindependentwhig.com/haidt-passages/haidt/conservatives-understand-liberals-better-than-liberals-understand-conservatives/ Haidt: Conservatives Understand Liberals Better Than Liberals Understand Conservatives]. ''The Independent Whig''. Retrieved November 13, 2019.</ref>

===Religious differences between political conservatives and political liberals===
The Barna poll conducted in November 2008 shows significant differences between the 32% of Americans who called themselves as “mostly conservative” on social and political matters; and the 17% who called themselves “mostly liberal” on social and political matters. The others—50%--were moderates with positions somewhere in-between.<ref>See [http://www.barna.org/barna-update/article/13-culture/258-survey-shows-how-liberals-and-conservatives-differ-on-matters-of-faith on line results]</ref>

Some findings:
Political liberals are less than half as likely as political conservatives to firmly believe that the Bible is totally accurate in all of the principles it teaches (27% versus 63%, respectively); to strongly believe that [[Satan]] is real (17% versus 36%); and to firmly contend that they have a personal responsibility to share their religious beliefs with others (23% versus 48%).

[Note: "Liberal" and "conservative" in this survey are based on politics]

Liberals are also far less likely than conservatives to strongly believe each of the following:
*their religious faith is very important in their life (54% of liberals vs. 82% of conservatives);
*a person cannot earn their way into [[Heaven]] by doing good deeds or being a good person (23% vs. 37%);
*their faith is becoming an increasingly important moral guide in their life (38% vs. 70%);
*the church they currently attend is very important in helping them find direction and fulfillment in life (37% vs. 62%);
*their primary purpose in life is to love God with all their heart, mind, strength and soul (43% vs. 76%);

political conservatives were more likely than liberals to:
*read the Bible, other than at church events, during the past week (57% vs. 33%, respectively)
*attend a religious service during the past week (62% vs. 35%)
*[[pray]] to God, other than at a religious service, during the past week (91% vs. 76%)
*share their religious beliefs with others, during the past year (56% vs. 39%, among the born again Christians interviewed from each segment)
*have ever participated in a short-term missions trip, either within the U.S. or in another country (12% vs. 6%)

*2% of conservatives and 11% of liberals were [[Atheism|atheist]] or [[agnostic]]
*15% of conservatives and 2% of liberals were [[Evangelical Christians|Christian evangelicals]]
*conservatives were twice as likely as liberals to be categorized as [[born again]], based on their theological views about salvation (63% vs. 32%)
*21% of conservatives were associated with the [[Roman Catholic Church]], compared to 30% among the liberals.

== Conservative organizations ==
{{See also|Major conservative organizations}}
Several organizations exist that promote consistently conservative values.

=== Conservative news ===
{{See also|Conservative news websites}}
Some of the more notable news organizations which tend to be more conservative are [[WorldNetDaily]] and [[NewsMax]]. [[Fox News]], though often called conservative, tends to be more [[neoconservative]] than conservative.

=== Conservative magazines and blogs ===
{{See also|Conservative media}}
Well known conservative magazines in the United States include ''[[National Review]]'', ''[[Policy Review]]'', ''[[The Weekly Standard]]'' and others.

Some notable [[Conservative blogs|conservative political blogs]] include the [[Heritage Foundation]]'s Policy Weblog, ''[[Human Events]]'', [[Michelle Malkin]], Newsbusters, Townhall.com and others.

== Neoconservatives ==

American commentators who ally themselves with the conservative movement but reject its religious or moral underpinnings are generally known as [[neoconservatives]].<ref>Jonah Goldberg, [http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=ZWMxNWNiNDJkY2JmNTExY2E1MzdkYWU3MWU1MTBiOGU= "What Is a 'Conservative'?"], [[National Review|National Review Online]], 11 May 2005</ref>

In the United States, conservatives are generally characterized by the following beliefs:

# Support of [[limited government]].
# A preference for freedom of opportunity over equality of result.
# [[Patriotism]], [[nationalism]], and support of a strong defense.
# Support of the institution of [[marriage]].
# Emphasis on social values, like [[prayer]] and [[pro-life]] principles.

In contrast, neoconservatives generally support [[Big government|bigger government]] and [[globalism]], and tend to downplay the significance of social values.

== Paleoconservatives ==

[[Paleoconservatives]] are conservatives who are more focused on social issues and American [[sovereignty]] and are suspicious of both big government and big business, along with [[globalism]] and [[multiculturalism]]. They also lean against foreign interventionism. Neoconservatives criticize this with the pejorative term of "[[isolationism]]," as they believe in promoting [[democracy]] worldwide, even where different religious or value systems are incompatible with democracy-induced changes in control.

A notable paleoconservative was Democrat Congressman from Georgia, [[Larry McDonald]]. He was also second Chairman of the [[John Birch Society]], and President of Western Goals. McDonald was aboard [[Korean Airlines Flight 007]] when it was shot down by the [[Soviet Union|Soviets]] near [[Moneron Island]] in 1983. Other paleoconservatives include [[Pat Buchanan]] and [[Tom Tancredo]].

==Fiscal Conservatism vs. Social Conservatism==

''For further details on the two related philosophies, see [[Fiscal conservatism]] and [[Social conservatism]]''

Recently, a division has been created between fiscal conservatism and social conservatism. Fiscal conservatism centers around a low and [[Balanced budget|balanced]] government [[budget]], and generally is opposed to programs such as [[Social Security]] and [[Medicare]]. Its primary goal is to reduce government spending significantly. Social Conservatism, on the other hand, focuses on the moral issues of conservatism. A social conservative will oppose [[same-sex marriage]], [[abortion]], and the teaching of [[evolution]] in schools. The majority of Conservatives (including most of the [[Republican Party]]) fall into both categories, however some fall into one or the other, but not both. Notably, [[Libertarians]] are strong fiscal conservatives but are not socially conservative. For instance, the [[Libertarian Party]] Platform <ref>[http://www.lp.org/platform]</ref> expresses support for the fiscally conservative principles of ending publicly funded [[welfare]] and [[healthcare]] programs as well as reducing government spending overall significantly. However, it also expresses support for [[same-sex marriage]] (with some libertarians leaning towards the ultimate goal of total [[marriage privatization]]) as well as maintaining the legal status of abortion.

Some Republicans and [[Democrat Party|Democrats]] also fit one category but not the other. Former [[New Mexico]] governor [[Gary Johnson]], who is seeking the Republican presidential nomination in 2012, was deemed "the most fiscally conservative governor" while he was in office (and probably earned that honor given all the spending cuts he made) but at the same time, he supports [[marriage privatization]] and [[abortion]] (though he believes ''[[Roe v. Wade]]'' should be overturned on Constitutional grounds). Also, several Democrats have expressed opposition to same-sex marriage and/or abortion, but still support liberal fiscal programs such as Social Security. They would be the opposite of Johnson - socially conservative but fiscally liberal.

=== Expected growth of social conservatism and religious conservatism ===

Due to the explosive growth of [[global Christianity]] in traditional cultures and their influence on Western Christianity and the higher birth rate of [[Conservative Christianity|conservative Christians]] and religious conservatives, social conservatism is expected to rise.

The Birkbeck College, University of London professor Eric Kaufman wrote in his 2010 book ''Shall the Righteous Inherit the Earth?'' concerning America:
{{cquote|High evangelical fertility rates more than compensated for losses to liberal Protestant sects during the twentieth century. In recent decades, white secularism has surged, but Latino and Asian religious immigration has taken up the slack, keeping secularism at bay. Across denominations, the fertility advantage of religious fundamentalists of all colours is significant and growing. After 2020, their demographic weight will begin to tip the balance in the [[Culture War|culture wars]] towards the conservative side, ramping up pressure on hot-button issues such as [[abortion]]. By the end of the century, three quarters of America may be pro-life. Their activism will leap over the borders of the 'Redeemer Nation' to evangelize the world. Already, the rise of the World Congress of Families has launched a global religious right, its arms stretching across the bloody lines of the War on Terror to embrace the entire Abrahamic family.<ref>[http://questionevolution.blogspot.com/2012/05/why-are-years-2012-and-2020-key-years.html Why are 2012 and 2020 key years for Christian creationists and pro-lifers?]</ref>}}

== Personal conservatism ==
Because Conservatives often have strong political views, there can be a tendency to see conservatism as a purely political ideology. However, there is also a strong personal side to conservatism - being a conservative is as much about applying conservative values to one's everyday life as it is about campaigning and voting for conservative candidates. In general, conservatives can be characterized by a strong sense of personal [[morality]], a willingness to observe their culture's traditions and customs, and a desire to be respectable and to show due respect to other members of the community.

==History of American conservatism==
===Textbook problems===
{{See also|Textbook bias}}
College-level teaching about conservatism has been distorted by a "liberal state paradigm"—that is, [[textbook]]s usually interpret recent American history in terms of the origins and successes of political liberalism—especially the [[New Deal]], the [[welfare state]], [[labor union]]s, and [[Civil Rights Movement|Civil Rights]] for blacks and [[equality]] for women. Conservative politics is usually defined as a reaction: as a [[free market]] reply to the growth of [[big government]]; as an expression of outrage against declining support for tradition and Christian morality. Where the violent Wobblies ([[Industrial Workers of the World|IWW]]) and illegal sit down strikes of the 1930s are seen as heroic, exposing [[Communist]] subversion by [[Joe McCarthy]] is denounced as the nadir of political morality.<ref>See Leonard Moore, "Approaching Conservatism," ''OAH Magazine of History,'' 17 (January 2003) [http://www.oah.org/pubs/magazine/conservatism/moore.html online edition]</ref>

===Loyalists===
The [[Loyalists]] of the [[American Revolution]] were mostly political conservatives, some of whom produced political discourse of a high order, including lawyer [[Joseph Galloway]] and governor-historian [[Thomas Hutchinson]]. However, when the crisis came, they stood with the Crown as it tried to destroy American political liberties. After the war, the great majority remained in the U.S. and became citizens, but some leaders emigrated to other places in the British Empire. [[Samuel Seabury]] was a Loyalist who stayed and as the first American bishop played a major role in shaping the [[Episcopal]] religion, a stronghold of conservative social values. While the Loyalist political tradition died out totally it the U.S., it survives in Canadian conservatism.

===Founding Fathers===
The [[Founding Fathers]] created the single most important set of political ideas in American history, known as [[Republicanism]], which all groups, liberal and conservative alike, have drawn from. Two parties were named "Republican"—the one founded in 1794 by [[Thomas Jefferson]] and [[James Madison]] (it disappeared in the 1820s), and the modern GOP founded in 1854.

During the [[First Party System]] (1790s–1820s) the [[Federalist Party]], led by [[Alexander Hamilton]], developed an important variation of republicanism that can be considered conservative. Rejecting [[monarchy]] and [[aristocracy]], they emphasized civic virtue as the core American value. The Federalists spoke for the propertied interests and the upper classes of the cities. They envisioned a modernizing land of banks and factories, with a strong army and navy. [[George Washington]] was their great hero.

On many issues, American conservatism also derives from the republicanism of [[Thomas Jefferson]] and his followers, especially [[John Randolph of Roanoke]] and his "Old Republicans" or "[[Quids]]." They idealized the [[yeoman]] farmer as the epitome of civic virtue, warned that banking and industry led to [[corruption]], that is to the illegitimate use of government power for private ends. Jefferson himself was a vehement opponent of what today is called [[judicial activism]].
<ref>[http://etext.virginia.edu/jefferson/quotations/jeff1030.htm]</ref> The Jeffersonians stressed small government.

===Ante-Bellum: Calhoun and Webster===
During the [[Second Party System]] (1830–54) the [[Whig Party]] attracted most conservatives, such as [[Daniel Webster]] of New England. [[Daniel Webster]] and other leaders of the [[Whig Party]], called it the conservative party in the late 1830s.<ref>The word was originally used in the [[French Revolution]]. The British used it after 1839 to describe a major party. The first American usage is by Whigs who called themselves "Conservatives" in the late 1830s. Hans Sperber and Travis Trittschuh, ''American Political terms: An Historical Dictionary'' (1962) 94-97.</ref> [[John C. Calhoun]], a Democrat, articulated a sophisticated conservatism in his writings. [[Richard Hofstadter]] (1948) called him "The [[Karl Marx|Marx]] of the Master Class." Calhoun argued that a conservative minority should be able to limit the power of a "majority dictatorship" because tradition represents the wisdom of past generations. (This argument echoes one made by [[Edmund Burke]], the founder of British conservatism, in ''Reflections on the Revolution in France'' (1790)). Calhoun is considered the father of the idea of minority rights, a position adopted by liberals in the 1960s in dealing with [[Civil Rights]].

The conservatism of the antebellum period is contested territory; conservatives of the 21st century disagree over what comprises their heritage. Thus [[William J. Bennett]] (2006), a prominent conservative leader, warns conservatives to NOT honor Calhoun, [[Know nothing party|Know-Nothings]], [[Copperheads (politics)|Copperheads]] and 20th century [[isolationist]]s. Other conservatives disagree with Bennett.

===Lincoln to Cleveland===
Since 1865 the [[Republican Party]] has identified itself with President [[Abraham Lincoln]], who was the ideological heir of the [[Whig Party|Whigs]] and of both [[Thomas Jefferson|Jefferson]] and [[Alexander Hamilton|Hamilton]]. As the [[Gettysburg Address]] shows, Lincoln cast himself as a second Jefferson bringing a second birth of freedom to the nation that had been born 86 years before in Jefferson's [[Declaration of Independence|Declaration]]. The [[Copperheads (politics)|Copperheads]] of the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] reflected a [[reactionary]] opposition to modernity of the sort repudiated by modern conservatives. A few libertarians have adopted a neo-Copperhead position, arguing Lincoln was a dictator who created an all-powerful government.

In the late 19th century the [[Bourbon Democrat]]s, led by President [[Grover Cleveland]], preached against corruption, high taxes (protective [[tariff]]s), and [[imperialism]], and supported the [[gold standard]] and business interests. They were overthrown by [[William Jennings Bryan]] in 1896, who moved the mainstream of the Democrat Party permanently to the left.

The 1896 presidential election was the first with a conservative versus liberal theme in the way in which these terms are now understood. Republican [[William McKinley]] won using the pro-business slogan "[[sound money]] and protection," while Bryan's anti-bank populism had a lasting effect on economic policies of the Democrat Party.

[[William Graham Sumner]], [[Yale University|Yale]] professor (1872–1910) and polymath, vigorously promoted a libertarian conservative ethic. After dallying with [[Social Darwinism]] under the influence of [[Herbert Spencer]], he rejected [[evolution]] in his later works, and strongly opposed imperialism. He opposed monopoly and [[paternalism]] in theory as a threat to equality, democracy and middle class values, but was vague on what to do about it.<ref>Curtis, Bruce. "William Graham Sumner 'On the Concentration of Wealth.'" Journal of American History 1969 55(4): 823-832.</ref>

===Early 20th century===
In the [[Progressive Era]] (1890s-1932), regulation of industry expanded as conservatives led by Senator [[Nelson Aldrich]] of [[Rhode Island]] were put on the defensive. However, Aldrich's proposal for a strong national banking system was enacted as the [[Federal Reserve System]] in 1913. [[Theodore Roosevelt]], the dominant personality of the era, was both liberal and conservative by turns. As a liberal he took a tough [[Regulation|regulatory]] approach toward businesses and [[trust]]s, and (post-presidency) fought for social insurance for the elderly. As a conservative he led the fight to make the country a major naval power, and demanded entry into [[World War I]] to stop what he saw as the [[German Empire|German]] attacks on civilization. [[William Howard Taft]] promoted a strong federal judiciary that would overrule excessive legislation. Taft defeated Roosevelt on that issue in 1912, forcing Roosevelt out of the GOP and turning it to the right for decades. As president, Taft remade the [[Supreme Court of the United States|Supreme Court]] with five appointments; he himself presided as chief justice in 1921–30, the only former president ever to do so.
[[Image:Gop-plank.JPG|thumb|275px|1936 cartoon shows GOP building its platform from the conservative planks abandoned by the Democrats]]
Pro-business Republicans returned to dominance in 1920 with the election of President [[Warren G. Harding]]. The presidency of [[Calvin Coolidge]] (1923–29) was a high water mark for conservatism, both politically and intellectually. Classic writing of the period includes ''Democracy and Leadership'' (1924) by Irving Babbitt and [[H.L. Mencken]]'s magazine ''American Mercury'' (1924–33). The [[Efficiency Movement]] attracted many conservatives such as [[Herbert Hoover]] with its pro-business, pro-engineer approach to solving social and economic problems. In the 1920s many American conservatives generally maintained anti-foreign attitudes and, as usual, were disinclined toward changes to the healthy economic climate of the age.

During the [[Great Depression]], other conservatives participated in the taxpayers' revolt at the local level. From 1930 to 1933, Americans formed as many as 3,000 taxpayers' leagues to protest high [[property tax]]es. These groups endorsed measures to limit and rollback taxes, lowered penalties on tax delinquents, and cuts in government spending. A few also called for illegal resistance (or tax strikes). The best known of these was led by the Association of Real Estate Taxpayers in [[Chicago]] which, at its height, had 30,000 dues-paying members.

An important intellectual movement, calling itself [[Southern Agrarians]] and based in Nashville, brought together like-minded novelists, poets and historians who argued that modern values undermined the traditions of American [[Republicanism]] and civic virtue.

The Depression brought [[liberal]]s to power under President [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] (1933). Indeed, the term "liberal" now came to mean a supporter of the [[New Deal]] and Roosevelt's powerful [[New Deal Coalition]]. In 1934 [[Al Smith]] and pro-business Democrats formed the [[American Liberty League]] to fight the new liberalism, but failed to stop Roosevelt's shifting the Democrat Party to the left. In 1936 the Republicans rejected Hoover and tried the more liberal [[Alf Landon]], who carried only [[Maine]] and [[Vermont]]. When Roosevelt tried to pack the Supreme Court in 1937 the conservatives finally cooperated across party lines and defeated it with help from Vice President [[John Nance Garner]]. Roosevelt unsuccessfully tried to purge the conservative Democrats in the 1938 election. The conservatives in Congress then formed a bipartisan informal [[Conservative Coalition]] of Republicans and southern Democrats. It largely controlled Congress from 1937 to 1964. Its most prominent leaders were Senator [[Robert Taft]], a Republican of [[Ohio]], and Senator [[Richard Russell]], Democrat of [[Georgia]].

In the United States, the [[Old Right]], also called the Old Guard, was a group of [[libertarianism|libertarian]], free-market anti-interventionists, originally associated with Midwestern Republicans and Southern Democrats. The Republicans (but not the southern Democrats) were [[isolationist]]s in 1939–41, (see [[America First]]), and later opposed [[NATO]] and U.S. military intervention in the [[Korean War]].

===Later 20th century: Goldwater and Buckley ===
By 1950, [[American liberalism]] was so dominant in academia and journalism that liberal critic [[Lionel Trilling]] dismissed contemporary conservatism and anti-communism as "irritable mental gestures which seek to resemble ideas." <ref>Lapham 2004</ref> But just as Trilling was writing a revival was underway. In the 1950s, principles for a conservative political movement were hashed out in books like [[Russell Kirk]]'s ''The Conservative Mind'' (1953) and in the highly influential new magazine ''[[National Review]]'', founded by [[William F. Buckley]] in 1955.

Whereas Taft's [[Old Right]] had been [[isolationist]] the new conservatism favored American intervention overseas to oppose [[Communism]]. It looked to the [[Founding Fathers]] for historical inspiration as opposed to [[John C. Calhoun|Calhoun]] and the antebellum South.

The success of the [[Civil Rights movement]] came in the Civil Rights Act of 1957, the [[bi-partisan]] [[Civil Rights Act of 1964]] and the [[Voting Rights Act]] of 1965. Conservatives supported all, but [[Barry Goldwater]] bucked party leadership to win a few Southern states for the first time since Reconstruction. Until then southern whites (both liberal and conservative) had been locked into the Democrat Party. That lock was now broken and some southern conservatives voted for Goldwater for president in 1964. In 1968, southern Democrats ran their own candidate against Richard Nixon. The southern blacks now began to vote in large numbers, and buoyed by [[Great Society]] [[entitlement]]s became Democrats, moving that party in the south to the left. In 1972 fully one third of all Democrats joined Richard Nixon's Silent Majority coalition against the far left progressive Democrats. Democrats shifted their strategy to nominating Southerners for president, Jimmy Carter in 1976, Bill Clinton in 1992 and 1996, and Al Gore in 2000. As the South became less racist, it became more Republican. By 2000, for the first time, all southern states had a conservative GOP and a liberal Democrat Party. The region split in both federal and state contests. In 2008 the [[Barack Hussein Obama|Obama]] campaign rebuilt the Clinton coalition in [[Florida]], [[Virginia]] and [[North Carolina]].

Goldwater, a charismatic figure whose intense opposition to all [[New Deal]] programs angered liberals, was defeated in a landslide in 1964. Goldwater faded and his supporters regrouped under new leadership, especially that of [[Ronald Reagan]] in [[California]], and regained strength nationally in the 1966 elections. Conservatives voted for [[Richard Nixon]] in 1968, who narrowly defeated the New Deal champion [[Hubert Humphrey]], and southern demagogue [[George Wallace]]. Nixon had come to terms with both the Goldwater wing of the party and the still-influential Rockefeller Republicans (Republicans from the [[Northeast]] who supported many New Deal programs).

===Nixon, Reagan, and Bush===

The Republican administrations of President [[Richard Nixon]] in the [[1970s]] were characterized more by their emphasis on ''[[realpolitik]]'', [[détente]], and socialist [[economic planning]] policies such as [[wage and price controls]], than by their adherence to conservative rhetoric and more liberal actions.

In the eight years of [[Ronald Reagan]]'s presidency 1981-89 the American conservative movement achieved ascendancy. In 1980 the GOP took control of the Senate for the first time since 1954, and [[conservative principles]] dominated Reagan's economic and foreign policies, with [[supply side economics]] as well as a strict opposition to [[Soviet Union|Soviet]] [[Communism]]. The [[free trade]] movement was used as a means to promote [[capitalism]] in the [[Third World]] to counter [[Marxist]] [[national liberation movement]]s. Reagan promised to cut [[welfare]] spending but failed to do so. He did cut taxes, but raised [[military spending]] and created large [[federal deficit]]s that turned out working to our advantage, because at that time, deficits didn't matter. It should be known that the Republicans also [[Balanced budget|balanced]] the [[budget]] in the late 1990s.

An icon of the American conservative movement, Reagan is credited by his supporters with transforming American politics, galvanizing the Republican Party, uniting a coalition of economic conservatives who supported his supply-side economic policies, known as "[[Reaganomics]]," foreign policy conservatives who favored his success in stopping and rolling back Communism, and social conservatives who identified with Reagan's conservative religious and social ideals.

=== Barack Obama and American Conservatism backlash ===
In October 2009, Niles Gardiner reported in the [[Britain|British]] newspaper ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'':
{{cquote|This week’s striking [[Gallup]] poll on political ideology is further confirmation that the United States is in essence a conservative nation, which has ironically become even more conservative under [[Barack Obama]]. According to Gallup, 40 percent of Americans describe their political views as conservative, 36 percent as moderate and 20 percent as liberal. This is the first time conservatives have outnumbered moderates in America since 2004.<ref>http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/nilegardiner/100014891/barack-obama-has-failed-to-defeat-conservatism-in-america/</ref>}}

===Donald Trump===
{{See also|Donald Trump achievements}}
Despite heavy opposition from the political [[establishment]], businessman [[Donald Trump]] defeated sixteen other candidates in the Republican primaries and defeated the heavy favorite in the general election, Hillary Clinton. As president, Trump enacted strongly conservative policies in issues such as deregulation, trade, immigration, religious freedom, abortion, and judges.

==Conservatism outside the United States==
===Conservatives in continental Europe===
Conservatism in Europe is generally synonymous with [[Euroskepticism]] and [[right-wing populism]] – ideologies that support local control, [[self-governance]], [[patriotism]] and national identity, [[sovereignty]], less immigration, and a more limited government as opposed to an endless EU bureaucracy. While mainstream [[establishment]] parties in Europe are also occasionally labeled "conservative" by the media, they share many of the same policies as globalism and liberalism.

Conservative parties in Europe include the [[Swiss People's Party]], [[Law and Justice]], [[Fidesz]], [[Lega Nord]], the [[Austrian Freedom Party]], [[Sweden Democrats]], [[Finns Party]], [[Conservative People's Party of Estonia]], [[Vox (Spain)|Vox]], and the [[Alternative for Germany]], among other parties. Prominent continental European conservatives include [[Viktor Orbán]], [[Václav Klaus]], [[Matteo Salvini]], [[Santiago Abascal]], [[Christoph Blocher]], [[Jarosław Kaczyński]], [[Santiago Abascal]], and [[Norbert Hofer]].

Right-wing populism in Europe has grown since the [[Eurozone Crisis]] and [[European migrant crisis]].

===Conservatives in Britain===

Conservatism has a strong tradition in the [[United Kingdom]], with figures such as [[John Locke]] and [[Edmund Burke]] laying its philosophical foundation. Most British conservatives belong to the [[Conservative Party (UK)|Conservative Party]] – a [[big tent]] party that includes both consistent conservatives and liberal [[globalists]] – as well as the [[United Kingdom Independence Party]], [[Brexit Party]], and the [[Democratic Unionist Party]]. Some notable British conservatives include [[Winston Churchill]], [[Enoch Powell]], [[Margaret Thatcher]], [[Ian Paisley]], [[Nigel Farage]], [[Raheem Kassam]], and [[Jacob Rees-Mogg]].

Up until the mid-19th century, the forerunner of the Conservative Party were known as [[Tory|Tories]], and the name has persisted as a common nickname both for the political party and those believed to be in agreement with it. Since the mid-to-late 1970s, British conservatives have been defined by an advocacy of [[laissez-faire]] economics, privatization and lower taxation. In recent years the Conservative Party has moved away from the social conservatism which once characterized it, and the current party policy includes, for example, support for [[abortion]] on demand, gay [[civil partnership]], the [[Kyoto Treaty]] and to oppose [[capital punishment]] (although it should be noted that such policies have little support among the party's grassroots membership).<ref>John Charmley, ''A History of Conservative Politics Since 1830'', (2nd ed. 2008)</ref> In common with conservatives in many other countries, British Conservatives tend towards a patriotic rather than internationalist outlook, and are traditionally skeptical of the [[European Union]].

[[Margaret Thatcher]] revitalized the British conservatives much like Reagan revitalized American conservatives. During her tenure as Prime Minister, she cut taxes, trimmed back at government waste, and exercised a strong national defense abroad (including the [[Falklands War]] of 1982).

Levels of prayer and worship are much lower in [[England]] and [[Wales]] than in the U.S., and religious issues thereby play less of a role in public discourse. However, religious issues remain a significant factor in [[Northern Ireland]] and in 2008 religious issues were significant during a special election in [[Scotland]].

The broadcast media (dominated by the [[BBC]]) is almost exclusively [[liberal]] in tone. The print media is slightly different with conservative-leaning newspapers like the ''[[Daily Mail]]'', ''[[Daily Express]]'' and ''[[Daily Telegraph]]'' selling more copies than their rivals.<ref>[http://www.mediauk.com/the_knowledge/i.muk/An_introduction_to_newspapers_in_the_UK Media UK; Introduction to newspapers in the UK]</ref> However, even the print media generally leans liberal.

===Conservatives in Canada===
Many Canadian conservatives align with the [[Conservative Party of Canada]], though the party does not strongly adhere to conservative values. The [[Christian Heritage Party]] is an example of a smaller but more consistent conservative Canadian party.

===Conservatives in Australia===

Australia was once more conservative than England but sweeping [[gun control]] laws pushed the nation leftward toward greater dependency on government in the last decade. In 2009, opposition to government control based on alleged [[global warming]] galvanized conservatives there and they led the [[Liberal Party of Australia]] to a repudiation of an emissions trading scheme.<ref>http://www.smh.com.au/national/shock-result-as-abbott-wins-liberal-leadership-by-one-vote--ets-dead-20091201-k1uz.html</ref> Conservatives also support smaller political parties such as the [[Family First Party]].

=== Conservatism and the French Revolution ===

Conservatism in France and the European continent generally arose in the after 1790 as a response to the radicalism of the [[French Revolution]].

== Benefits of Conservatism ==

Several facets of conservatism function in unison to make it an effective and powerful philosophy. Conservatism emphasizes personal freedom, independence, and initiative; this allows the [[best of the public]] to rise to their natural level of achievement. Conservatives recognize that [[big government]] fosters dependency and stifles individual achievement—and thus, weakens society as a whole.

At the same time, conservatives also recognize that with individual freedom comes [[individual responsibility]]. In the absence of a hand-holding [[nanny state]], it is imperative that each individual take responsibility for his own actions, and exercise his rights and freedoms wisely and with discretion. Thus, [[social conservatism]] is also critical to a successful society, as it emphasizes the importance of [[morality]], duty, and responsibility to one's self and fellow men.

== Re: Liberal Ninth Circuit suspends Bill of Rights ==

Regarding the addition of that news item in the Main Page right column, it should have been worded as "Liberal Ninth Circuit ''illegally'' suspends Bill of Rights", as the actions of the liberal judges in that decision are purely politically motivated (while also attempting to read things into the Constitution that are not there and have never been) and, as with any other liberal activist judge, they're attempting to use powers they do not have (i.e. legislating from the bench) and have no right to use in the first place. Given the history of bad decisions by the 9th Circuit (and its corresponding reputation of being the most-overturned circuit in the judicial branch), their illegal decision will not stand and you can bet that President Trump will weigh in on this (with especially strong rebukes for Nguyen and Silverman, the black-robed shysters who wrote the majority opinion).

Hmmmm...maybe it's because...JOE BIDEN IS RUNNING THIS COUNTRY INTO THE GROUND! Their lack of self-awareness is astounding. The reality is, the core of the "Trumpian" republicans is exactly what it was 30 years ago, the Left has simply pulled the center so far left that it makes us look extreme.

:::Okay, that shouldn't be too difficult. If you want to learn about userboxes and browse the existing options, you will want to look here: [[Conservapedia:Userboxes]]. Or, if you prefer, you can just use the applicable code I have on my profile page.

''The "About Me" message on the opening tag can be changed to whatever you prefer.'' Then, just load in the userboxes you want. I am using <code><nowiki>{{User Christian2}}</nowiki></code> to say I am a Christian, and <code><nowiki>{{User American}}</nowiki></code> to display my patriotism. I don't have a box specifically for the Constitution, expect for the limited government one: <code><nowiki>{{User limited govt}}</nowiki></code>. You can use that, or use this more straightforward one: <code><nowiki>{{User Constitution}}</nowiki></code>. Regarding the second amendment, I assume you are specificly talking about the right to have and bear arms. For that, you would probably want to use <code><nowiki>{{User progun}}</nowiki></code>. For the military, you probably want <code><nowiki>{{User patriot}}</nowiki></code>.

I have seen twice from Atheists, that if they actually observed molecules-to-man evolution, that would somehow be evidence against it.

:I thought of saying something on my user page along the lines of "watch out, trolls, I'm coming after you now!" But I decided not to because I feel that it's inappropriate because:

#It would sound like I was bragging and Matthew 23:12 says: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." and James 4:6 says: "But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: 'God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.'" In the original Greek, the word for proud means "to puff one's self up."
#I believe that Andy expects a certain level of decorum from people on this site, especially those to whom he has granted certain admin privileges. I think it is important to exercise a certain level of maturity and responsibility when you've been put in a position where your voice represents this site.

:::That sounds like a wise choice--those are good reasons. Also, the way I see it, turning our focus to vandals gives them a sort of victory--they will have changed our behavior. However, there is nothing wrong with countering attacks to a reasonable degree.
:::As just a bit of housekeeping, please avoid blocking IP addresses indefinitely. The "Automatically block the last IP address used by this user..." option enables autoblock, which is very helpful and should typically be used. However, some IPs belong to entire schools, libraries, and companies, plus IP addresses get reassigned over time. Blocking them for long periods of time can prevent legitimate users from editing. For now, probably figure that a ban using autoblock should not typically be longer than a year. You can disable autoblock and ban an account permanently, but the IP will not be blocked, so they can just make another account. --[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]]) 01:19, 16 December 2018 (EST)

Please read this material I posted on User: NishantXavier's and User: RobSmith's talk pages.

=== Please stop having debates on talk pages. Conservapedia has debate pages ===

Conservapedia has debate pages. For example, here is a debate page: [[Debate:Are alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine gateway drugs?]].

What I see now is a whole bunch of repetitive and poorly organized material on talk pages dealing with Catholic vs. Protestant issues that is not bringing web traffic. This needs to stop. I stopped reading this repetive material and I am others have as well.

If you are going to have debates, for the sake of Conservapedia readers, have them on debate pages. Nobody wants to read poorly organized and repetitive material.

So please stop having debates on talk pages. Conservapedia has debate pages.

Thank you.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 14:14, 18 July 2020 (EDT)

=== Addendum: Re: Catholic vs. Protestant debates on talk pages ===

I posted the below message to RobSmith and it refines my thinking on this matter.

RobSmith, I know you do your best to bring in web traffic which Conservapedians appreciate.

I have a small request.

Conservapedia has debate pages. For example, here is a debate page: [[Debate:Are alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine gateway drugs?]].

Having a debate on a specific issue, would make the debate exchanges more organized and debates with debate titles on the page would be more organized.

I would also suggest setting up debate guidelines. Because right now the back and forth between the Protestants and Catholics is getting repetitive. And because it is on talk pages, it tends not to be very organized.

What I see now is a whole bunch of repetitive and poorly organized material on talk pages dealing with Catholic vs. Protestant issues that is not bringing web traffic.

If you are going to have debates, for the sake of Conservapedia readers, have them on debate pages. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 14:23, 18 July 2020 (EDT)
=== Postscript ===

My main criticism is that these Protestant vs. Catholic exchanges are not on talk page articles relevant to the topic. They are not on debate pages. They are on User talk pages which is the worst places for these exchanges to take place.

When these exchanges take place on user talk pages, they tend to be unorganized, repetitive and "no holds barred". There are no rules or conventions when it comes to user talk pages. But article talk pages tend to be more topically relevant and organized. Debate pages tend to also be more organized and less repetitive.

Thank for your assistance and support.

Andy did agree with me that Catholic vs. Protestant issues are best done on debate pages which are: more informative, better organized, more civil and bring in more search engine traffic (Search engines like topically focused pages and user talk pages are a mishmash of various subjects and therefore do not rank well in the search results).

If there are any Catholic vs. Protestant issues as far as mainspace articles, the articles can be made objective with each side giving their position. And any disputes involving the mainspace articles being handled on the talk pages of the respective articles in a civil manner.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 15:28, 2 August 2020 (EDT)

==Blocking duration==
Our current policy is to limit blocks to 6 months after other measures have been taken for abuse. Sure, sometimes a block exceeding 6 months is warranted, however you should consult an Admin. Page lock and other methods can be employed. Even cases of non-profane vandalism do not always require the maximum 6 month block without warning. Warnings can and should be issued. In the recent case where you alleged a sockpuppet repeat offender, and issued a one year block, assuming you had good cause, the block should be limited to 6 months.

:I thought of saying something on my user page along the lines of "watch out, trolls, I'm coming after you now!" But I decided not to because I feel that it's inappropriate because:

#It would sound like I was bragging and Matthew 23:12 says: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." and James 4:6 says: "But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: 'God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.'" In the original Greek, the word for proud means "to puff one's self up."

:::As just a bit of housekeeping, please avoid blocking IP addresses indefinitely. The "Automatically block the last IP address used by this user..." option enables autoblock, which is very helpful and should typically be used. However, some IPs belong to entire schools, libraries, and companies, plus IP addresses get reassigned over time. Blocking them for long periods of time can prevent legitimate users from editing. For now, probably figure that a ban using autoblock should not typically be longer than a year. You can disable autoblock and ban an account permanently, but the IP will not be blocked, so they can just make another account. --[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]]) 01:19, 16 December 2018 (EST)

=== Please stop having debates on talk pages. Conservapedia has debate pages ===

Conservapedia has debate pages. For example, here is a debate page: [[Debate:Are alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine gateway drugs?]].

What I see now is a whole bunch of repetitive and poorly organized material on talk pages dealing with Catholic vs. Protestant issues that is not bringing web traffic. This needs to stop. I stopped reading this repetive material and I am others have as well.

If you are going to have debates, for the sake of Conservapedia readers, have them on debate pages. Nobody wants to read poorly organized and repetitive material.

=== Addendum: Re: Catholic vs. Protestant debates on talk pages ===

I posted the below message to RobSmith and it refines my thinking on this matter.

RobSmith, I know you do your best to bring in web traffic which Conservapedians appreciate.

I have a small request.

Conservapedia has debate pages. For example, here is a debate page: [[Debate:Are alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine gateway drugs?]].

Having a debate on a specific issue, would make the debate exchanges more organized and debates with debate titles on the page would be more organized.

I would also suggest setting up debate guidelines. Because right now the back and forth between the Protestants and Catholics is getting repetitive. And because it is on talk pages, it tends not to be very organized.

What I see now is a whole bunch of repetitive and poorly organized material on talk pages dealing with Catholic vs. Protestant issues that is not bringing web traffic.

If you are going to have debates, for the sake of Conservapedia readers, have them on debate pages. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 14:23, 18 July 2020 (EDT)
=== Postscript ===

My main criticism is that these Protestant vs. Catholic exchanges are not on talk page articles relevant to the topic. They are not on debate pages. They are on User talk pages which is the worst places for these exchanges to take place.

When these exchanges take place on user talk pages, they tend to be unorganized, repetitive and "no holds barred". There are no rules or conventions when it comes to user talk pages. But article talk pages tend to be more topically relevant and organized. Debate pages tend to also be more organized and less repetitive.

Andy did agree with me that Catholic vs. Protestant issues are best done on debate pages which are: more informative, better organized, more civil and bring in more search engine traffic (Search engines like topically focused pages and user talk pages are a mishmash of various subjects and therefore do not rank well in the search results).

If there are any Catholic vs. Protestant issues as far as mainspace articles, the articles can be made objective with each side giving their position.

All you who voted Dem in this election: you voted to affirm riots, property destruction, violence, and MURDER! You affirm the false narrative of "police brutality" because you don't do real research and get the FACTS of those cases. You have NO MORAL HIGH GROUND TO STAND ON!!!!

You bloviate about the "mostly peaceful protests" and only condemn the right for using the violence as a political weapon. It's obvious where your priorities are. You demand that Trump denounce White Supremacists (which he has done, for years [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah1LBT4Hhq8] ) yet you won't condemn this.

The '''Pelosi Panel''' otherwise known as the '''January 6 Select Committee''' was a [[partisan]] [[witchhunt]] and [[demonization]] project formed by [[San Francisco values|San Francisco]] [[Democrat]] Rep. [[Nancy Pelosi]] after the [[United States Senate]] and [[Joe Biden]]<ref>https://www.axios.com/biden-jan-6-commission-67eb120f-5c0b-48e6-be77-08158ef94441.html</ref> rejected the idea of forming a [[bipartisan]] commission to investigate the [[2021 Capitol insurrection hoax]].<ref>https://www.voanews.com/usa/us-senate-votes-block-panel-probe-capitol-riot</ref>

According to House Resolution 503 if the [[117th Congress]], the panel must consist of thirteen members of the House, and “five must be appointed after consultation with the minority leader.” Pelosi booted off [[Republican]] members<ref>https://news.yahoo.com/pelosi-rejects-jordan-and-banks-for-jan-6-committee-as-house-gop-says-it-will-launch-its-own-investigation-194806464.html</ref> and named two of her own hand selected Republican [[NeverTrump]]ers for a total of nine members and without consultation with the minority leader.

Pelosi did not want to answer questions about her own involvement in rejecting National Guard security in the days before the January 6 fiasco.<ref>https://freedomjournalist.com/it-was-a-set-up-both-dc-mayor-pelosi-turned-down-national-guard-on-jan-6/</ref>

The Capitol Police Chief requested National Guard presence prior to January 6,<ref> https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2021/01/07/this-is-why-the-national-guard-didnt-respond-to-the-attack-on-the-capitol/</ref> and was rejected six times.<ref>https://www.npr.org/2021/01/11/955548910/ex-capitol-police-chief-rebuffs-claims-national-guard-was-never-called-during-ri</ref> Pelosi was concerned about the "optics" of having a National Guard presence on January 6.<ref>https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/01/fear-of-bad-optics-may-have-contributed-to-capitol-security-failure</ref> ''[[Reuters]]'' reported that the FBI found no evidence the capital breach was the result of an organized plot to overturn the presidential election result.<ref>https://www.bizpacreview.com/2021/08/20/fbi-says-little-evidence-jan-6-was-a-coordinated-effort-to-overturn-election-report-1121834/</ref> The FBI later admitted to running a [[false flag]] sting operation on the Capitol grounds on January 6, 2021.

Pelosi initiated the hearings after her second failed [[Impeachment 2.0|sham impeachment]],<ref>https://americandigest.com/legal-scholars-advocate-for-dismissal-of-impeachment-after-trump-leaves-office/comment-page-1/</ref> this time aimed at Trump voters and not the President himself.<ref>https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/jul/16/pelosis-trump-impeachment-30/</ref> Rep. [[Benny Thompson]], a black separatist and veteran apologist for the 1960s era Republic of Africa domestic extremist group,<ref>https://justthenews.com/government/congress/jan-6-commission-chairman-once-sympathized-black-secessionist-group-killed-cops</ref> served as chair. The panel was a taxpayer-funded opposition research team for the [[2022 Midterm elections]] with [[subpoena]]s for everyone connected with the Trump movement.

Republicans also withdrew from the [[communist]] dominated House Select Committee on Economic Disparity and Fairness in Growth after Pelosi's arrogant dismissal of the people's elected representatives.<ref>https://nypost.com/2021/07/28/mccarthy-pulls-gop-picks-off-economy-panel-amid-pelosi-clash/</ref>

When the committee was formed, a [[Rasmussen Poll]] found that 66% of registered voters would rather see the 2020 [[Black Lives Matter]] and [[Antifa]] protests investigated. 67% of whites, 64% of [[Black]] voters, 66% of [[Hispanic]]s and 62% of other minorities thought Congress should be investigating the [[2020 leftwing riots]] that enveloped American cities and widely supported by Democrat members of Congress. 60% of Democrats, 63% of voters not affiliated with either major party, and 75% of Republicans said Congress should investigate the 2020 riots. No majority existed for the Pelosi panel.<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/07/poll-majority-voters-want-antifa-blm-investigated-january-6th/</ref>

==January 6 protests==
[[File:Ayers and dohrn.jpeg|left|200px|thumb|In 1971, Obama mentors Bernardine Dohrn (left} and Bill Ayers {right} bombed the United States Capitol Building.<ref>https://pjmedia.com/blog/bob-owens/2008/10/06/ayers-dohrn-obama-tie-shouldnt-be-dismissed-n18617</ref>]]
:{{See also|Save America March 2021}}
Pelosi called the January 6 protests, the "worst assault on the Capitol since the [[War of 1812]]." However, no bombings occurred. Former Trump [[chief-of-staff]] [[Mark Meadows]] testified that during the January 6 Capitol riot, Speaker Pelosi asked the Department of Defense (DOD) what time Congress members could get their lunch.<ref>https://justthenews.com/government/congress/mark-meadows-pelosi-asked-about-lunch-congress-members-during-jan-6-capitol</ref> "I find it amazing that she was more interested in their culinary position than they are in anything else," he added.

At the age of 21 in the early 1960s, a [[radical]] [[subversive]] and treasonous [[Joe Biden]] breached the [[U.S. Capitol]] building, entered the Senate chamber, sat in the presiding officer's chair, and was arrested.<ref>https://bigleaguepolitics.com/bizarre-biden-recounts-being-arrested-after-trespassing-in-senate-chamber-in-old-video/</ref>

On March 1, 1971, the [[Weather Underground]] headed by [[Barack Obama]]'s far-left mentors [[Bill Ayers]] and [[Bernardine Dohrn]] bombed the U.S. Capitol building.<ref>https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/02/28/when-the-left-attacked-the-capitol-471270</ref>

In 1984 a [[radical]] [[communist]] group calling themselves the [[John Brown Anti-Klan Committee]] published the following communiqué:
{{quotebox-float|Tonight we bombed the [[U. S. Capitol]] building. We attacked the U. S. Government to retaliate against [[imperialist]] aggression that has sent the marines, the [[CIA]] and the army to invade sovereign nations... 
We are acting in solidarity with all those leading the fight against U. S. imperialism the peoples of [[Grenada]], [[Lebanon]], [[Palestine]], [[El Salvador]], and [[Nicaragua]] - who are confronting direct U. S. aggression... 
Our action carries a message to the U. S. imperialist ruling class: we purposely aimed out attack at the institutions of imperialist rule rather than at individual members of the ruling class and government. We did not choose to [[kill]] any of them at this time...<ref>[http://nobsopus.blogspot.com/1983/11/armed-resistance-unit-bombs-us-capitol.html "Armed Resistance Unit Bombs US Capitol"], Death to the Klan, Winter, 1984, No.3.</ref>}}
Minutes before the blast, a caller claiming to represent the “Armed Resistance Unit” had warned the Capitol switchboard that a bomb had been placed. The force of the device, hidden under a bench at the eastern end of the corridor outside the chamber, blew off the door to the office of the [[Exalted Cyclops]] and [[Democratic party|Democratic Leader]] [[Robert C. Byrd]]. A stately portrait of [[Daniel Webster]], located across from the concealed bomb, received the explosion’s full force. The blast tore away Webster’s face and left it scattered across the tiles in one-inch canvas shards. Federal agents arrested six members of the so-called Resistance Conspiracy in May 1988 and charged them with bombings of the Capitol, Ft. McNair, and the Washington Navy Yard. In 1990, a federal judge sentenced Marilyn Buck, Laura Whitehorn, and [[Linda Evans]] to lengthy prison terms for conspiracy and malicious destruction of government property.<ref>https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/minute/bomb_explodes_in_capitol.htm</ref> While in prison, Linda Evans authored ''The Prison Industrial Complex'' with funding from the George Soros [[Open Society Foundations|Open Society Institute]].<ref>[http://sorosfiles.com/soros/2011/10/soros-funded-media-and-the-glorification-of-the-weather-underground.html Soros-funded Media and the Glorification of the Weather Underground]</ref> [[Democratic Socialists of America|Democratic Socialist]] [[Bernie Sanders]] adopted her prison industrial complex slogan as part of his [[Bernie Sanders 2020 presidential campaign|2020 presidential election]] agenda.<ref>https://twitter.com/BernieSanders/status/1104190335805255680</ref>

On July 12, 1947, a former [[Capitol Police]] officer attempted to assassinate Sen. [[John Bricker]] of [[Ohio]].<ref>https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2017/06/15/disgruntled-policeman-shot-ohio-senator-capitol-1947/399794001/</ref>

Security became a major issue since the [[September 11, 2001 attacks]], where a fourth hijacked plane on a suicide mission may have been headed to the White House or the Capitol. The serenity and repose formerly offered by [[Frederick Law Olmsted]]'s original capitol grounds landscape have been replaced with concrete barriers and machine-gun-wielding police who greet visitors and passersby with suspicion, in stark contrast to the air of friendliness and openness that used to prevail. The landscaping around the Capitol grounds, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, was partly sacrificed during 1999-2003 to construct the new Capitol Visitor Center and security points.

{{quotebox-float|"The “Unselect Committee” of highly partisan politicians, a similar group that perpetrated the now proven lie of Russia, Russia, Russia, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, Impeachment Hoax #1, Impeachment Hoax #2, and many other Scams, has sent out Harassment Subpoenas on Jan. 6th so that the Government of the United States can continue wasting time while Russia, China, and virtually every other country that deals with our Nation can continue to “eat our lunch,” and laugh at the stupidity of what is going on at our Southern Border, and the worst withdrawal from a war zone by any Nation in history—all of this while the Democrats persecute and prosecute Republicans which is, together with Rigging Elections, essentially all they know how to do. We will fight the Subpoenas on Executive Privilege and other grounds, for the good of our Country, while we wait to find out whether or not Subpoenas will be sent out to Antifa and BLM for the death and destruction they have caused in tearing apart our Democrat-run cities throughout America.

Hopefully the Unselect Committee will be calling witnesses on the Rigged Presidential Election of 2020, which is the primary reason that hundreds of thousands of people went to Washington, D.C. in the first place. Let the people of the United States see the real facts, which cannot happen because the Fake News refuses to write about them. The Witch Hunt will never end! In the meantime, the Democrats get away with the Russia Scam, and all of the other corruption they have perpetrated on our Country for so many years.

The Pelosi Panel admitted it made a [[fraud]]ulent accusation in its subpoena of former New York Police Commissioner [[Bernie Kerik]].

At least two unarmed white women were killed by police at the U.S. Capitol false flag insurrection. Over 400 people were arrested on trespass charges and held for more than one year under barbaric conditions in the [[DC Gulag]] without bail or trial, adequate food and access to medical treatment, subjected to beatings, torture, and Marxist [[rectification]] [[brainwashing]] to coerce false confessions to insurrection and plea agreements.

===Ashli Babbitt===
Among the deaths reported out of the incident include [[Ashli Babbitt]], a veteran [[United States Air Force]] intelligence officer from [[California]] allegedly shot and killed by Capitol Police.<ref>Two references:

He’s even pointing it in the direction of a member of Congress,” the fellow officer said, referring to Rep. [[Markwayne Mullin]]. A lawyer for the Babbitt family said, “I can’t tell you how many officers have contacted me to say that what that guy did doesn’t pass muster. No one has come forward to say this was justified homicide, not even the Justice Department. The way he did it — hiding in a room and then popping out and firing — is a problem. If his objective was to stop her, he didn’t need to shoot."<ref>[https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2021/08/05/lawyer_capitol_cop_who_shot_ashli_babbitt_ambushed_her_on_jan_6_without_warning_788569.html Lawyer: Capitol Cop Who Shot Ashli Babbitt 'Ambushed' Her on Jan. 6 Without Warning], By Paul Sperry, RealClearInvestigations, August 05, 2021.</ref>

Ten months after the killing, the family was denied Roseanne Boyland's full autopsy report by the DC Medical Examiner’s office and the Biden [[Department of Justice]]. The Government of the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department also denied the family of Rosanne Boyland the video footage they posess showing her death after her father filed a [[Freedom of Information Act]] (FOIA) request to obtain it.

Rep. [[Louie Gohmert]] (R-TX) grilled chief procurator [[Merrick Garland]] under oath about Boyland’s death and the video showing Boyland being beaten and possibly killed by a DC Police Officer on the Capitol steps. Gohmert asked Garland if a determination was ever made to the DC Metro Police Officer who struck Rosanne Boyland repeatedly in the head with a rod before she died. According to ''[[The Gatewaypundit]]'' Garland proceeded to lie to the nation in front of the [[House Judiciary Committee]]. The Boyland family has since contacted the Department Justice and were told there was no such investigation.<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/11/must-read-exclusive-family-rosanne-boyland-killed-january-6th-denied-full-autopsy-report-speak-first-time-plead-government-investigation-please-help-gri/</ref>

===Fake news===
:{{See also|Impeachment 2.0}}

''[[The New York Times]]'' initially reported that U.S. [[Capitol Police]] Officer Brian Sicknick was “bludgeoned by a fire extinguisher.” The Democrat House Impeachment Trial Memorandum named President Trump liable for “insurrectionists” that “killed a Capitol police officer by striking him in the head with a fire extinguisher.” [[CNN]] later reported that there was no fire extinguisher at all. The pathologist who performed the autopsy claimed Sicknick did not die from blunt trauma force. Sicknick in fact texted his brother the evening after the riot to tell him he was fine and “in good shape.”<ref>https://www.propublica.org/article/officer-brian-sicknick-capitol</ref>

The next day the Sicknick family began getting phone calls from reporters that Sicknick had been declared dead. However, as it turned out, Sicknick was not dead yet.<ref>https://archive.fo/yaDbS</ref> One hour later, as Sicknick’s family rushed to the hospital to see what they believed was Officer Sicknick fighting for his life, the US Capitol Police issued a further statement that Sicknick now was dead. Sicknick's brother had been told Brian collapsed inside the Capitol building, then was rushed to the hospital.<ref>https://archive.fo/BfdiT</ref> But the US Capitol Police’s statement told a different story: Brian had returned to his office at the police division first.

Sometime apparently between Sicknick being fine, healthy, and back in his office on Wednesday night, and dead or effectively dead on early Thursday evening, Sicknick apparently suffered a stroke. Sicknick’s body then was cremated.<ref>https://www.revolver.news/2021/02/maga-blood-libel-why-are-they-hiding-the-medical-report/</ref>

The '''2021 Capitol protests''' consisted of a diverse group of Americans of different races, backgrounds, and cultures protesting the [[electoral college]] certification of the [[fraud]]ulent [[2020 presidential election]] on January 6, 2021.

==Security refused==
In an interview with United States Capitol Police police chief Steve Sund, ''[[Washington Post]]'' reported the chief “believes his efforts to secure the premises were undermined by a lack of concern from House and Senate security officials who answer directly to Speaker [[Nancy Pelosi]] and Senate leader [[Mitch McConnell]].” ''WaPo'' reported, “Two days before Congress was set to formalize President-elect [[Joe Biden]]’s victory, [[U.S. Capitol Police]] Chief Steven Sund was growing increasingly worried about the size of the pro-Trump crowds expected to stream into Washington in protest. To be on the safe side, Sund asked House and Senate security officials for permission to request that the D.C. National Guard be placed on standby in case he needed quick backup. But, Sund said Sunday, they turned him down.” D.C. Mayor [[Muriel Bowser]]'s chief of staff admitted, “this guy is on the phone, I mean, crying out for help. It’s burned in my memories.”<ref>https://thenationalpulse.com/breaking/ex-capitol-police-chief-says-pelosi-mcconnells-sergeants-at-arms-refused-security-measures-while-new-timeline-proves-trump-incitement-claims-bogus/</ref>

===FBI / DHS===

The federal government had undercover agents or confidential informants embedded in several groups. A study by ''Revolver News'' of unindicted co-conspirators listed throughout the various charging documents found the unindicted co-conspirators appear to be much more aggressive and egregious participants in the so-called “conspiracy”.<ref>https://www.revolver.news/2021/06/federal-foreknowledge-jan-6-unindicted-co-conspirators-raise-disturbing-questions/</ref> Most of these unindicted co-conspirators are associated with the three alleged "militia groups" targeted by the federal government, [[Oath Keepers]], the [[Proud Boys]], and the Three Percenters.
[[File:JTTF.PNG|right|300px|thumb|Home video surveillance of the Joint Terrorism Task Force attempted recruitment of an American citizen on December 9, 2020 based upon a [[Facebook]] posting.<ref>https://freedomjournalist.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/FBI-DHS-Attempted-to-Recruit-MILITARY-to-Infiltrate-RIOTERS-Before-Jan.-6-678x381.jpg</ref>]]
Thomas Caldwell is a 65-year-old from Virginia and an alleged member of the Oath Keepers, which the DOJ refers to as a “paramilitary” or “militia” group. A careful read of the indictment against Caldwell reveals that a certain “Person Two” was a key co-conspirator alongside Caldwell in nearly every dimension relevant to the charges in question. Person Two planned logistics with Caldwell days in advance of 1/6, stayed in the same hotel room for days together, and when Caldwell allegedly “stormed the barricades” into restricted areas outside the U.S. Capitol, Person Two is alleged to have “stormed the barricades” right beside him. In arguing defendant Caldwell should be denied bail, the DOJ cites Caldwell’s “leadership role in planning the events of January 6” as including “finding lodging” for Person Three. They even explicitly refer to Person Three as “a third co-conspirator.” “Person Three” reserved and paid for various Oath Keeper hotel rooms. Indeed, the curious lack of indictments filed against the entire gamut of Persons referenced as playing leadership roles within the Oath Keepers on 1/6 raises red flags. This includes: Person 2, Person 3, Person 10, Person 14, Person 15, Person 16, Person 19 and Person 20, along with many co-conspirators listed only as “an individual.”

Among such individuals is the alleged administrator of the “Stop the Steal J6” Zello channel.<ref>The Zello channel in question was populated by patriot/militia personalities who were variously monitoring and participating in 1/6 activities in real-time. Zello is an app that allows for walkie-talkie functionality on a cell phone. Because phones signals were “jammed” by law enforcement in the Capitol area, Zello’s walkie-talkie function was useful (and pre-planned) to stay in communication.</ref> The DOJ point-blank says this Zello channel administrator “directed the group” as it was carrying out the alleged Capitol attack. If the group is carrying out a conspiracy as the defendants are charged with, this Zello channel administrator is directing the conspiracy in real-time. Yet the Zello administrator was not charged.

It appears that the individual who set up the Proud Boys’ communications infrastructure is being protected by the DOJ. The DOJ refers to this person only as “UCC-1” (UCC meaning an explicitly spelled out “unindicted co-conspirator”). UCC-1, as well as two additional unindicted co-conspirators referred to only as “Person-One” and “Person-Two” in the Proud Boys indictment, were all in Proud Boys “upper tier leadership,” and appear to have been the most prolific planners and incendiary advocates of “insurrection” in the run-up to and on the day of 1/6. The DOJ cites statements made almost exclusively by unindicted co-conspirators as statements that “revealed a plan to storm the Capitol and to let the crowd loose.”

In December 2020 a former Green Beret and Republican congressional candidate was contacted by the [[Department of Homeland Security]] (DHS) and FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF). The Green Beret released video surveillance of the FBI contacting him at his home and an audio recording made at a local restaurant of his actual meeting with the FBI. Federal agents attempted to recruit him to spy on patriots and everyday Americans. The lead was provided directly to the FBI by Facebaook.<ref>https://freedomjournalist.com/fbi-dhs-attempted-to-recruit-military-to-infiltrate-rioters-before-jan-6/</ref>

[[Roger Stone]] has testified,

===Ray Epps===
[[File:Epps 2.PNG|right|300px|thumb|Ray Epps, FBI ''agent provocateur''<ref>https://rumble.com/vql5tg-ray-epps-keep-the-focus.html</ref>]]
Ray Epps can be seen on video standing front and center giving out directions at the breach location. The breach team then proceeded to haul the metal police barricades off to the side, tear down “Restricted Area” signage, and systematically remove protective fencing from the Capitol lawn. Ordinarily, with no barriers in place, this entire area is open to the public. This occurred at an area known as the Peace Monument. It was the very first walkway entrance into the Capitol grounds that every Trump supporter would arrive at first as they walked from the Trump rally one mile away to the Capitol. The Pennsylvania Ave and the Constitution Ave exits from the Trump speech intersect at the Peace Monument. If any of the eight other walkway entrances into the Capitol grounds had been toppled, tens of thousands of marchers would have been met by police and metal barricades, instead of an open gate.

The Ray Epps breach team thus set up a booby trap by pushing back the police, then hauling away the “restricted area” signage, the chain fencing, and the metal barricades—all while tens of thousands were still at the Trump rally. Without police present or “do not enter” signs prominently visible, people leaving Trump’s speech and arriving at the Capitol entrance would have no idea it was illegal to walk through the gate, or onto the lawn, or up to the Capitol steps. This entire area is ordinarily open to the public. Instead, they heard friendly music and saw the main walkway to the Capitol grounds wide open. These unwitting Trump supporters had no idea they had just crossed an invisible tripwire that would later subject them to federal prosecution for trespassing.

Epps stepped straight up to the police officers who had just showered the crowd in pepper spray. Epps appeared to negotiate with the officers and struck a deal, whereby Trump supporters could come back up to the front step if they simply remained there peacefully. Epps then turned back to the crowd and told them “Guys: Listen Up. Up to the steps and stay there. We’re gonna stay there for a while.”<ref>https://rumble.com/vqledj-ray-epps-striking-a-deal-with-police.html</ref>

===Scaffold Commander===
[[File:Scaffold Commander 1.jpeg||right|300px|thumb|Scaffold Commander with bullhorn]]
Scaffold Commander gets his name from being the ostensible “commander” of the prominent “media tower” that overlooked the Capitol’s back terrace on January 6. The scaffold was erected in November 2020 so that media crews could film the January 2021 inauguration ceremony. From high atop the tower between 1 p.m. – 2:30 p.m, ScaffoldCommander issued the iconic bellows and non-stop commands that are loud and clear on almost every video clip from January 6 filmed in that time interval. For nearly 90 minutes straight, he bombards the otherwise leaderless crowd below him with endless variations on a single instruction: “Don’t just stand there. Keep moving forward!”<ref>https://rumble.com/vpwd2v-nwscaffoldcommander-on-bullhorn-move-forward.html</ref> Once the crowd had continuously “moved forward” for over an hour, and the very first handful of rioters entered the building, ScaffoldCommander suddenly threw the switch: “Okay we’re in! We’re in! Come on! We gotta fill up the Capitol! Come on! Come now! We need help We gotta fill up the Capitol! They got in.”<ref>https://rumble.com/vpwybu-nwscaffoldcommander-we-gotta-fill-up-the-capitol.html</ref>

ScaffoldCommander should have been one of the top criminal suspects on the entire FBI Capitol Most Wanted List, however he isn’t even on the list, and no charges have been filed, and the FBI to date has still never acknowledged his existence. Rallygoers could hear his constant commands with total clarity all the way back at the entrance to the Capitol lawn. For new entrants arriving at the Capitol grounds, ScaffoldCommander’s voice would be the first and loudest voice they heard.<ref>https://rumble.com/vqffvb-nwscaffoldcommander-influence-on-new-entrants-to-capitol-lawn.html</ref> One attendee described this unnatural pressure in a vividly detailed Twitter thread a few days after January 6. She fingered ScaffoldCommander as “the ringleader” of the operation.<ref>https://twitter.com/Twinity5/status/1349188166025097220</ref> Ray Epps stationed himself immediately below ScaffoldCommander at the media tower for the whole 90 minutes it took to move the crowd forward, then into the building.

==Dissident arrests==
[[File:Anna-Morgan-Lloyd.jpeg|right|300px|thumb|Capitol tourists convicted of trespass.]]
Peaceful protesters incarcerated were subjected to unconstitutional civil liberties violations, including unjustified solitary confinement, deprived of private conversations with their attorneys, lack of needed medical care, and terrible sanitary conditions in the [[DC Gulag]].<ref>https://www.theepochtimes.com/department-of-justice-treats-jan-6-detainees-with-double-standard-conservative-legal-activists_3891357.html</ref> In addition to violent beatings,<ref>https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/national/capitol-riots/dc-corrections-officer-savagely-beat-capitol-riot-suspect-attorney-says-ryan-samsel/65-ee38f382-4686-4dd6-9486-5db67c5bc794</ref> dissidents were subjected to re-education and de-programming.<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/political/deprogramming-begins-public-defender-representing-january-6th-defendants-re-educates-them</ref> Of the 574 people arrested, 65% of them were married, 14% of them have military service, 4% of them are members of law enforcement, and over 55% of them have college education—86% of whom are male, and 14% female—whose ages range from 18 to 75—and came from nearly every State in America. Among the arrested and incarcerated were:

*Prisoners were forced to drink out of toilets.
*Prisoners were denied contact with counsel.
*Those who attended the rally, even those who did not enter the Capitol, have been branded as domestic terrorists, fired from their jobs, and threatened by social media mobs. The toll of this has already led Christopher Stanton Georgia, a married father of two, to commit suicide after his arrest for unauthorized entry on federal property. Stanton made a mistake but was not accused of looting or violence<ref>https://14oqrc3mu9t3duv5t3o92h75-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/LAA_UNHCR_A.pdf</ref>
*Ned Lang, father of prisoner Jacob Lang, attended both. Lang told attendees that, following the a June 2021 rally in support of the detainees, the “whole Patriot wing” of the prison that included his son, Jacob, were locked down in a place called “the hole” for 8 straight days. This unjust punitive measure was imposed without reason and apparently is more brutal than the standard solitary confinement to which they had been subjected. Being imprisoned in “the hole” means twenty-four hours of confinement, no human contact, no showers, no shaving, no hygiene of any kind. Lang also said a “sergeant” opened Jacob’s cell door and maced him without cause. They also took his clothes and all his legal papers for his defense.
*According to an anonymous letter received by [[LAA]] from inside the Washington, D.C. prison, the prisoners are subjected to solitary confinement regularly for days, weeks and in some cases months at a time.36 They live under constant threats of violence and actual violence perpetrated by spiteful guards who, under cover of night, turn off their body cameras and commit acts of violence against the prisoners. They also have been threatened with undefined retribution if they file reports of their abuse. Prisoner Richard Barnett reported they threatened to attack his wife if he spoke of his abuse. In fact, retaliation was promised if any lawsuits were filed against the prison or its guards for the inhumane treatments they are routinely inflicting. Barnett’s attorney, Joseph McBride, spoke about the conditions and mistreatment facing the prisoners of January 6th to ''[[Newsmax]]’s'' Greg Kelly:
{{quotebox-float|'''Joseph McBride:''' What I can say about the Jan. 6 protesters who remain incarcerated or detained at this point, is that their constitutional rights and human rights are being violated by the Department of Justice and the Federal Government at this very moment. The law is clear that no type of punishment is appropriate for a detainee. Despite that numerous detainees are being held in solitary confinement for long periods of time. They’re being denied medical care. They’re taking beatings. They’re being denied sleep. They’re being psychologically, emotionally, and physically tortured on a regular basis, 
'''Greg Kelly:''' Hold on a second. Who’s beating them up? 
'''Joseph McBride:''' I am alleging that the guards are beating them up. The staff are beating prisoners on a regular basis and have been doing so for a long time. This is no exaggeration. 
'''Greg Kelly:''' Was your client Richard Barnett beaten up by staff? 
'''Joseph McBride:''' He absolutely was. He was beaten. He was dragged. He was hog-tied. One time his pants dropped below his ankles exposing his private parts while he was taking a beating in front of a female officer. And he had to beg and plead to pull his pants up.”}}
*Prisoners are also subjected to medical abuse and neglect. At the Florida rally held by Look Ahead America on July 17, 2021, Trish Worrell said her husband, prisoner Christopher Worrell, has Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (cancer) and he has been refused any medical treatment for his condition in the six months he has been held. His condition is worsening. His confinement, let alone his lack of treatment, are unwarranted. Worrell never entered the Capitol building on January 6th. Guy Wesley Reffit, while in custody, required hospitalization for three days in an intensive care unit because jail personnel did not provide him his prescribed medicine.

He’s even pointing it in the direction of a member of Congress,” the fellow officer said, referring to Rep. [[Markwayne Mullin]]. A lawyer for the Babbitt family said, “I can’t tell you how many officers have contacted me to say that what that guy did doesn’t pass muster.

Ten months after the killing, the family was denied Roseanne Boyland's full autopsy report by the DC Medical Examiner’s office and the Biden [[Department of Justice]]. The Government of the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department also denied the family of Rosanne Boyland the video footage they posess showing her death after her father filed a [[Freedom of Information Act]] (FOIA) request to obtain it.

Rep. [[Louie Gohmert]] (R-TX) grilled chief procurator [[Merrick Garland]] under oath about Boyland’s death and the video showing Boyland being beaten and possibly killed by a DC Police Officer on the Capitol steps. Gohmert asked Garland if a determination was ever made to the DC Metro Police Officer who struck Rosanne Boyland repeatedly in the head with a rod before she died. According to ''[[The Gatewaypundit]]'' Garland proceeded to lie to the nation in front of the [[House Judiciary Committee]].

===Fake news===
:{{See also|Impeachment 2.0}}

''[[The New York Times]]'' initially reported that U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick was “bludgeoned by a fire extinguisher.” The Democrat House Impeachment Trial Memorandum named President Trump liable for “insurrectionists” that “killed a Capitol police officer by striking him in the head with a fire extinguisher.” [[CNN]] later reported that there was no fire extinguisher at all. The pathologist who performed the autopsy claimed Sicknick did not die from blunt trauma force. Sicknick in fact texted his brother the evening after the riot to tell him he was fine and “in good shape.”<ref>https://www.propublica.org/article/officer-brian-sicknick-capitol</ref>

The next day the Sicknick family began getting phone calls from reporters that Sicknick had been declared dead. However, as it turned out, Sicknick was not dead yet.<ref>https://archive.fo/yaDbS</ref> One hour later, as Sicknick’s family rushed to the hospital to see what they believed was Officer Sicknick fighting for his life, the US Capitol Police issued a further statement that Sicknick now was dead. Sicknick's brother had been told Brian collapsed inside the Capitol building, then was rushed to the hospital.<ref>https://archive.fo/BfdiT</ref> But the US Capitol Police’s statement told a different story: Brian had returned to his office at the police division first.

Sometime apparently between Sicknick being fine, healthy, and back in his office on Wednesday night, and dead or effectively dead on early Thursday evening, Sicknick apparently suffered a stroke. Sicknick’s body then was cremated.<ref>https://www.revolver.news/2021/02/maga-blood-libel-why-are-they-hiding-the-medical-report/</ref>

==Prosecution==
The [[Biden junta]] resumed the weaponization of the [[Justice Department]] against political opponents that was begun by the [[Obama administration]]. Chief prosecutor [[Merrick Garland]] took over where [[Loretta Lynch]], [[Sally Yates]], [[Eric Holder]] and [[Rod Rosenstein]] left off. The ''[[Washington Examiner]]'' reported,
{{quotebox-float| U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta said during a court hearing conducted by phone and Zoom he was “surprised” to see Michael Sherwin, the former acting U.S. attorney for the [[District of Columbia]], and other officials discussing the pending investigation into the insurrection in interviews with the ''[[New York Times]]'' and [[CBS]]’s ''60 Minutes''.

“I was surprised — and I’m being restrained in my use of terminology — surprised, to say the least, to see Mr. Sherwin sitting for an interview about a pending case in an ongoing criminal investigation. Whether his interview violated Justice Department policy is really not for me to say, but it is something I hope the Department of Justice is looking into,” the judge said. “As for the ''New York Times'' story, I found it troubling that sources within the Department of Justice were detailing the possibility of additional charges in a pending criminal case in an ongoing criminal investigation.

==Current Action==
In response to the injustices faced by non-violent American patriots, citizens have been organizing to hold our DOJ and FBI accountable. Rallies organized by [[Look Ahead America]] have been ongoing since June 19th, 2021, and occur outside the DC correctional Facility. The simple message of the protests is to end the political persecution of fellow citizens separated from their families for months. Prisoners also face solitary confinement, denial of medical care, denial of access to faith and worship services, and financial ruin due to court costs and legal fees. Approximately fifty American political prisoners remain imprisoned at the DC correctional facility, so rallies continue to end the injustice.<ref>https://lookaheadamerica.org/rally/</ref> Satellite rallies are conducted in nine other states with the same goal and vision.<ref>https://lookaheadamerica.org/satellite/</ref> Arizona Representative [[Paul Gosar]] addressed the June 19th, 2021 Rally Against Political Persecution at the Department of Justice showing support for civil rights of prisoners.<ref>https://lookaheadamerica.org/laa-announces-rep-paul-gosar-to-address-rallyagainstpoliticalpersecution/</ref>

==QAnon conspiracy theory==
Of the more than 400 peaceful protesters arrested in the Capitol protests, 20 persons, or approximately 0.00000604229607251% of the U.S. population, were said to be QAnon followers by the [[FBI]].<ref>https://www.vice.com/en/article/88n8yk/the-fbis-new-qanon-report-is-scary-as-hell?utm_source=vicenewstwitter</ref>

The most frightening moment connected with January 6 protests occurred when the FBI seized a replica model of the U.S. Capitol in a box of Legos. Elements within the FBI had illegally leaked to the media that the Lego structure had been a fully constructed diagram of the Capitol building. In an unprecedented move, the FBI actually corrected its illegal fake news leak later, and in record time, too.<ref>https://nypost.com/2021/07/12/capitol-lego-set-seized-from-rioter-in-box-unassembled/</ref>

:''For his achievements as U.S. President, see [[Donald Trump achievements]].''
:''Donald Trump was [[Conservative of the Year]] in [[Conservative of the Year 2017|2017]] and [[Conservative of the Year 2018|2018]].''
'''Donald John Trump''' (b. [[Queens]], [[New York]], on [[Donald Trump's age|June 14, 1946]]), nicknamed "'''The Donald'''," was the 45th [[President of the United States of America]], as a result of winning the [[2016 presidential election]] as the [[Republican Party]] nominee. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and [[television]] personality. A strong [[conservative]], Trump [[Donald Trump achievements|achieved much during his presidency]] and advanced many conservative priorities. He greatly benefited the US energy sector by reducing the energy dependence of the US in the Middle East, helping gasoline prices go down, and encouraging projects such as the Keystone Pipeline. Despite this, he received more criticism than any U.S. president in history, almost all of which is purely politically motivated.

In the [[United States presidential election, 2020|2020 presidential election]], Trump received at least a record-smashing 74+ million lawful votes, many in the key [[swing states]]. This confirms him as the leader of the [[Republican Party]], indeed the entire nation, for the foreseeable future. Many conservatives who no longer feel they identify with Trump are retiring. This is the most probable cause that at least 25% of Republican senators up in 2022 plan to retire, and many other transitions are occurring among the GOP nationwide.

Trump and his wife Melania tested positive for the [[Wuhan virus]] in early October 2020.<ref>Multiple references:

*[https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-first-lady-test-positive-covid-19-n1241769 Trump, first lady test positive for Covid-19]</ref> The mainstream media have started mocking him, some believing he deserved his positive COVID-19 test; Pence is also vulnerable, since many of his workers have contracted the [[Wuhan coronavirus]]. [[Leftists]] and the [[MSM]] attempted to downplay Trump's experiences with the virus, claiming that the average American would not have received similar medication. Trump's strong leadership against the coronavirus even after falling ill to it himself shocked many.

==Early life==
He was born on June 14, 1946, in New York City to Fred and and Mary Anne MacLeod Trump. He has several brothers and sisters: Elizabeth, Fred Jr., Maryanne, and Robert. After High School he attended the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

==Financial worth & education==
Trump has engaged in many financial pursuits and estimated that his net worth was $10 billion, as of July 2015.<ref>LoGiurato, Brett (July 25, 2015). [https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-net-worth-2015-7 "We finally know a lot more about Donald Trump's 'massive' net worth"]. Business Insider website.</ref> ''Forbes'', however, estimates his net worth is $3.1 billion as of 2019.<ref>[https://www.forbes.com/profile/donald-trump/ "The world's most powerful people: #2 Donald Trump"]. (March 6, 2017). Forbes.com website.</ref> He graduated from the New York Military Academy in 1964 and first attended college at [[Fordham University]] for two years before transferring to the more competitive [[University of Pennsylvania]] and completing his undergraduate studies at its Wharton School of Finance and Commerce. In September 2020, the [[New York Times]] reported on Donald Trump engaging in tax avoidance. It was claimed that his tax avoidance dates back to the 1990s. Trump doesn't like pilots who get captured, but the majority of Americans don't like executives who file bankruptcy.

Early media profiles of Trump claim he graduated "first in his class" from Wharton.<ref>Whitman, Alden (January 28, 1973). [https://www.nytimes.com/1973/01/28/archives/a-builder-looks-backand-moves-forward-builder-looks-back-but-moves.html "A builder looks back—and moves forward".] ''New York Times''. Retrieved from ''New York Times'' website.</ref> The evidence suggests otherwise and yet Trump has never sought to correct or clarify this potentially significant error.<ref>Geist, William E.

==Candidacy==
[[File:2thumb-5-1-300x202.jpg|right|300px|thumb|As Trump rode the escalator to announce his candidacy, polls showed Hillary Clinton's collusion with Russia over the [[Uranium One deal]] was her biggest vulnerability. Deputy Attn. Gen. [[Sally Yates]] was taking steps to ban the Inspector General from oversight of the DOJ-National Security Division and hide [[FISA abuse]].<ref>[https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/03/08/doj-political-surveillance-from-the-irs-in-2011-to-the-fisa-court-in-2016/ DOJ Political Surveillance – From the IRS in 2011 to the FISA Court in 2016], Posted on March 8, 2020 by sundance. theconservativetreehouse.com</ref>]]
On June 16, 2015, he declared his candidacy for the Republican nomination in the [[2016 presidential election]].<ref>Multiple references:
*[https://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/06/16/trump-announces-white-house-bid-joins-crowded-gop-field/ "Trump announces White House bid, joins crowded GOP field"] (June 16, 2015). Fox News website/Politics. The front-runner in a record-breaking field of 17 [[Republican]] candidates, Trump announced that he did not anticipate "throwing punches" against his rivals in the first GOP debate.
*Chiacu, Donna and Torbati, Yeganeh (August 2, 2015). [https://www.reuters.com/article/2015/08/02/us-usa-election-debate-idUSKCN0Q70NI20150802 "Trump says won't be 'throwing punches' in U.S. Republican debate"]. Reuters/Politics. But at the debate the [[Fox News Channel]]—particularly its [[feminist]] non-journalist [[Megyn Kelly]]—ambushed Trump with out-of-context quotations designed to smear him as somehow being anti-women. This ignited a national controversy that lasted for days, and Trump called upon Kelly to apologize, which she refused to do.</ref> Unlike most other U.S presidential candidates, Trump sharply criticizes the media and talks about issues that no elected official dares touch. For example, Trump stands up against [[feminists]], unlike most politicians. In another example, in 2011 Trump persistently doubted whether [[Barack Obama]] had been born in the [[United States]], which caused Obama's approval ratings to drop below 40% until Obama finally caved in to Trump and produced what Obama claimed was his birth certificate. Trump then scoffed at Obama's conduct.

'''''In February 2011, Trump announced that he is [[pro-life]], and at the final presidential debate on Oct. 19, 2016, Trump gave the strongest endorsement of the pro-life position of any presidential nominee in history'''''. Trump said he has never had to ask God for forgiveness; if he does something wrong, he makes it right, so his Christianity is questionale, as it is impossible to be a Christian without forgiveness.

Trump's central campaign theme has been to oppose [[illegal immigration]] and [[free trade]], and nominated Senator [[Jeff Sessions]] as [[Attorney General]] to enforce standing legislation on the issue. As reported by [[Breitbart News Network|Breitbart]], "Sen. Sessions, Chairman of the Senate’s Immigration Subcommittee, is widely regarded as the gold standard on immigration. Sessions has also become the intellectual thought leader in the Republican Party on appealing to the blue collar voters who have been abandoned by their political leaders." <ref>Hahn, Julia (August 14, 2015). [https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/08/14/game-change-trump-consults-with-sen-jeff-sessions-on-immigration-strategy/ "Game change: Trump consults with Sen Jeff Sessions on immigration strategy"]. Breitbart website/Big government.</ref> In the later campaign Trump focused more on [[ISIS]] and terrorism.

At the final presidential debate between [[Hillary Clinton]] and Trump on October 19, 2016, Clinton chastised Trump for running a newspaper advertisement in 1987 critical of the [[Reagan Administration]]. But Trump persuasively explained that he has always disagreed with Reagan's support of free trade, as many other [[conservatives]] disagree with Reagan on this issue.

==Religious beliefs==
:{{Main|Donald Trump's religious views|Donald Trump and evangelicals}}
Donald Trump attended the First [[Presbyterian]] Church in Jamaica, [[Queens]]. He told the [[Christian Broadcasting Network]] that he still considers himself a [[Presbyterian]] and attends services for all major holidays and Sundays, and that "The [[Bible]] is certainly THE book." He receives Bibles from fans in the mail, and he either stores them or gives them away to others.<ref>Haberman, Maggie (April 11, 2011).

==Career==
[[File:Trump business.jpg|right]]
Donald Trump began his career at [[Trump Organization]]. In his college years, he helped revitalize one of his father's failing real estate ventures. Trump began opening hotels and casinos, which provided him with the cash flow to engage in other ventures. He owns the world-famous [[Trump Tower]] and is the founder of the publicly traded Trump Hotel Casinos & Resorts. Trump also owns the Trump brand, which sells a variety of items, such as bottled water, steak, and even mortgages. Trump has authored a number of books and weathered changing business fortunes, but despite the challenges that he has encountered, he has continued to be a successful businessman and entrepreneur.

Trump [[Donald Trump presidential campaign, 2000|ran unsuccessfully]] for the nomination of the [[Reform Party]] in 2000. Trump considered [[presidential election 2012|running for president in 2012]] as a [[Republican]]. He, among others, questioned the citizenship of [[Barack Obama]], citing his failure to produce his birth certificate. After Obama produced his birth certificate, Trump and the other [[birther]]s continue to doubt its authenticity. Obama's approval ratings were around 40% during the peak of the controversy. Trump later exited the race, and gave the customary endorsement to [[Mitt Romney]] as the other [[Republican]] contenders did.

==Media==
[[File:Donald Trump star.JPG|thumbnail|right|Hollywood Walk of Fame]]
For his contributions to the gaming and entertainment industry, Trump was inducted into the Gaming Hall of Fame in 1995.

In 2003 Trump began as the host and executive producer of the reality [[television]] show ''The Apprentice'' and ''The Celebrity Apprentice'', where contestants compete for a position in Trump's organization. On this show, Trump popularized his catchphrase "You're fired!" Trump received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2007 following the success of ''The Apprentice''. However, since he became president, Trump's star as been periodically vandalized by liberal political critics.<ref>Press Association (April 8, 2016). [http://www.onenewspage.com/video/20160408/4211707/Donald-Trump-Hollywood-Walk-of-Fame-Star.htm "Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame Star vandalised three times a day"].</ref>

Trump is also a noted fan of [[WWE]], and has been a part of some of their shows. Trump was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013.

In 2016, following winning the presidential election, Trump was named Person of the Year by [[Time Magazine]].

Trump used to own the Miss Universe and Miss USA pageants. Controversy arose when Miss USA 2006 Tara Conner was caught breaking pageant rules by drinking and other activities. Trump gave her a second chance after personally speaking with her and allowed her to retain her crown as she attended rehabilitation. For several weeks after this, [[Rosie O'Donnell]] berated Trump for his decision on ''The View''. A bitter media war ensued with the two exchanging insults.

Trump has made many guest appearances, usually as himself, on many TV shows and in several movies. Numerous mental health professionals have diagnosed Trump with malignant narcissistic personality disorder, which means he is good at the art of manipulation and has no conscience.

==Political positions==

====Coronavirus Pandemic====
President Trump deferred heavily to [[Hillary Clinton]]-supporter Anthony Fauci, a [[Deep State]] bureaucrat in the [[National Institutes of Health]], in responding to the [[coronavirus]] pandemic in early 2020. Trump rejected the advice of [[White House]] official Peter Navarro to take early action cutting off travel from [[China]], and to make [[hydroxychloroquine]] widely available.

Trump's polls numbers plummeted largely because of his deference to Fauci and unwillingness to take the advice of Navarro. John Fleming, an adviser to Chief of Staff [[Mark Meadows]], also misled Trump by denying the benefits of widespread access to hydroxychloroquine, as other countries have done to defeat [[COVID-19]].

Immediately after taking office, Trump had exchanged vitriolic rhetoric with and made threats to North Korea after the latter carried out numerous medium/long-range missile tests and a nuclear test in September 2017. However, in March 2018, Trump announced he would hold a summit with North Korea Chairman Kim Jong Un, making him the first U.S. president to have bilateral talks with a North Korean leader. The first summit was held in Singapore in June 2018, a second in Hanoi in February 2019, and a third informal summit in the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in June 2019 - during which he became the first sitting U.S. president to step foot on North Korean soil. During the period of the summits, North Korea had halted testing of long/medium-range missiles, as well as nuclear testing (and outside of a few short-range missiles in early May 2019, North Korea hasn't tested any weapons since November 2017.)

On Monday, 7 October 2019, Trump ordered American military forces to withdraw from northern Syria in case Turkish forces and their allies would attack them, meaning the predominantly Syrian Kurdish ''SDF'' (''Syrian Democratic Force'') would not have direct U.S. military support. This decision came after a telephone conversation with Turkish ruler [[Recep Tayyip Erdoğan]] on Sunday,<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/politics/turkey-announces-incursion-of-northeast-syria-us-backed-kurds-have-vowed-all-out-war Trump pulls back troops from northern Syria ahead of Turkish assault, Pentagon officials 'blindsided']</ref> and Turkish forces soon began advancing into northern Syria to create a buffer zone.<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/world/turkey-syria-invasion-ground-forces-civilians-dead Turkey announces northern Syria invasion of ground forces; multiple civilians reported dead]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUeXaPaKF50 Why Turkey is invading Syria]</ref> In the same week it was announced that it is planned by the U.S. administration to send 1,500 troops to the Middle East because of the tensions between [[Saudi-Arabia]] and [[Iran]].<ref>[https://video.foxnews.com/v/6040831354001/ President Trump plans to send 1,500 US troops to the Middle East]</ref> President Erdogan visited the White House on November 13, 2019.<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/11/13/donald-trump-im-a-big-fan-of-turkish-president-recep-tayyip-erdogan/ Donald Trump: ‘I’m a Big Fan’ of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan]</ref>

Trump is strongly pro-[[Second Amendment]] and against [[leftist]] [[gun control]] and gun free zones.

====Homosexual agenda====
For all practical purposes, Trump seems to be on the side of the [[homosexual agenda]]. He supports the creation of new law by the [[U.S. Supreme Court]], as in a new right to [[homosexual marriage]], and declares it the "law of the land" even though Congress passed no such law.

Trump has attended multiple [[same-sex marriage]] ceremonies{{Citation needed}}, but has also said in the past that he opposes same-sex marriage. Trump's views are not yet known on other aspects of the [[homosexual agenda]], such as whether Trump would ban [[conversion therapy]] for minors as [[Chris Christie]] did. The [[Fox News Channel]] debate in August avoided these issues.

====Immigration====
{{See also|Donald Trump achievements: Immigration and border security}}
See the discussion in the introduction above. This is Trump's main campaign issue.

A central part of his immigration plan is to build a giant wall on the border with Mexico. Trump estimates it will cost $8 billion, approximately 35 to 40 feet high and stretch 2000 miles.<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/02/09/donald-trump-the-wall-is-probably-8-billion Trump Border Wall]</ref> During the campaign, Trump promised that Mexico will pay for the wall, but after taking office, he clarified that payment could be in the form of a tax on Mexican imports or other revenues measures after the Mexican government showed opposition towards Trump's plan.

Trump has also proposed to temporarily ban [[Muslims]] from entering the United States, until "our leaders figure out what the hell is going on," in order to protect Americans from the threats posed by [[Islamic]] [[refugee]]s (and those pretending to be<ref>[http://m.washingtonexaminer.com/isis-fighters-infiltrating-syrian-refugees-uk-is-warned/article/2572051 ISIS fighters infiltrating Syrian refugees, UK is warned]</ref>) entering the country.<ref>[http://www.donaldjtrump.com/media/donald-trump-insists-muslim-ban-is-about-safety-not-religion Donald Trump Insists Muslim Ban Is About Safety, Not Religion]</ref>

Efforts have been made by hostile journalists to paint Trump as advocating a [[Muslim registry]], but what he actually proposed was a [[database for Syrian refugees]].

====Political contributions====
He has been criticized for his substantial contributions to [[Democrat]] lawmakers; the majority of those lawmakers are located in the states he resides in: New York and Florida. The amount he has donated since 2008 is $25,000, which is insignificant considering his wealth.<ref>Allin, Olivia (April 30, 2011).

Trump's tactics of naming and shaming candidates has been proven very effective. He called Jeb Bush 'low-energy Jeb' and it stuck. Then came Marco Rubio as 'Little Marco.' Next came 'Lyin' Ted' for Ted Cruz. For the Democrats, he calls Hillary Clinton 'Crooked Hillary'. He doesn't give Bernie Sanders the same treatment though he has referred to him as a Communist.

''See also [[Worst College Majors]]''.

A '''college''' is an institution of post-secondary education.

In the [[United States]], the word "college" is both synonymous with "[[university]]", and also may describe a component (including a graduate school) under the umbrella of a university (e.g. a "College of Nursing"). In some cases, though, the term is used to denote an institution that only offers undergraduate degrees, or to denote a two-year institution (i.e. a [[community college]]).

However, in the [[United Kingdom]] and some former British territories, the word may used to denote a school for post-secondary, but non-degree education, defined as Further Education. Many UK secondary school students will go to a college (a Sixth Form College or a College of Further Education) after the age of 16, to study academic, business or vocational subjects up to pre-university level.

The word college is also used in a few non-educational applications, such as the [[Electoral College]] in the [[United States]], the Royal College of Nursing in the United Kingdom, or the [[College of Cardinals]] at the [[Vatican]].

Many colleges and professors have been known for their strong liberal biases, and for promoting [[liberal propaganda]].<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A8427-2005Mar28.html]</ref> Depending on whether or not the student selects one of the [[Worst College Majors]], college can leave the student in suffocating debt and delusional; the effects of which may take decades to undo if it ever happens.

'''Climate change''' is the new name used by [[liberal]]s for their [[global warming]] hoax, which they coined as it became obvious that there is no crisis in global warming. The modification in terminology is identical to what [[liberals]] did in redefining "evolution" to be "change over time," which of course is a meaningless expression just as "climate change" is. Numerous past predictions of climatic catastrophes have failed to hold up.<ref>Multiple references:

Climate change does occur naturally, which scientists say has occurred in repeated cycles of cooling (see [[Ice Age]]s) and warming over millions of years. Yet many writers have been urging America to fund an ill-conceived initiative to "stop global warming" as if warmer nights or winters would make human life more difficult. The term "climate change" has largely replaced the term "global warming", in ideological discussions.

Ideologues insist that the world's top scientists have reached a "consensus" that most of the warming which land-based weather stations have recorded in the last century is due to human activity. The basis for this claim is a set of reports published by the [[IPCC]], an agency of the United Nations. The assumption is that the government-appointed representatives who run the IPCC would be completely objective and neutral, and would place finding and revealing the truth ahead of any nationalistic interests.

A lot of money is spent publicizing one side's position in the debate:
* ''Newsweek'' purports to take readers inside the world of “Global-Warming Deniers: A Well-Funded Machine” without mentioning that the global-warming alarmists are even better funded, in some cases with government support. [https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2007/aug/15/the-hottest-year-1934/]

Journalists omit mention of key scientific points:

* Good news is no news, which is why the mainstream media largely ignores all studies showing net benefits of climate change. [http://wattsupwiththat.com/2013/10/17/the-good-side-of-climate-change/]

Ideologues use all sorts of tricks to convince the general public to support them on the climate change issue. A perennial favorite is to trumpet the current year as the "[[warmest year on record]]", as if one [[outlier]] denotes a [[trend]]. Probably the most insidious kind of trick is to accuse objective people of cherry-picking and censorship, while hypocritically doing just that themselves.

The allegedly harmful effects of climate change include warming temperatures, changing weather patterns, an increase in sea level and in general any climate event affected by global warming.<ref>http://chaser.env.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~kengo/lec/IPCC_TAR-FRONT.pdf</ref> Climate change is one of the top [[Environmental Issues|environmental issues]], with [[liberal]]s and [[conservative]]s evenly divided on whether [[global warming]] is man-made or, if it is significantly occurring, is a natural event — along with [[global cooling]].

It's about the proposition that human use of [[fossil fuels]] has contributed significantly to the past century's warming, and that expected future warming may have catastrophic global consequences. But hard evidence for this human contribution simply does not exist; the evidence we have is suggestive at best. Does that mean the human effects are not occurring? Not necessarily. But [[Climategate media coverage#Climategate media coverage|media coverage]] of global warming has been so alarmist that it fails to convey how flimsy the evidence really is.

==Hypocrisy==

Many times, AGW advocates pay lip service to general principles which they themselves violate, while broadcasting false accusations that their opponents are violating these principles. The AGW side has made every effort to censor their opponents, heaping enormous pressure on scientists and other academics to silence them. Accordingly, the US media gave great publicity to [[James Hansen]] when he accused NASA of trying to silence him.<ref>Hansen "shot to fame when he accused the administration of trying to censor his views on climate change" [http://www.dailytech.com/Blogger+finds+Y2K+bug+in+NASA+Climate+Data/article8383.htm]</ref>

==Environmentalism and climate change==
The main contention of [[environmentalist]]s like [[Al Gore]] is the argument that:
#The earth's atmosphere warmed one or two degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 Centigrade) during the 20th century.
#Most of this warming is man-made.
#The warming is likely to continue and to be harmful to human, animal and plant life.
#We must all work together to stop it by reducing emission of [[greenhouse gases]].

==Science and climate change==

Jack M. Hollander wrote:
<blockquote>... climate change remains a fascinating and important scientific subject. Climate dynamics and climate history are extraordinarily complex, and despite intensive study for decades, scientists are not yet able to explain satisfactorily such basic phenomena as extreme weather events ([[hurricane]]s, [[tornado]]es, [[drought]]s), El Nino variations, historical [[climate cycles]], and trends of [[atmospheric temperature]]s. The scientific uncertainties about all these matters are great, and not surprisingly, competent scientists disagree in their interpretations of what is and is not known.<ref>http://goliath.ecnext.com/coms2/summary_0199-2875898_ITM</ref></blockquote>

William Happer wrote:
<blockquote>The current debates about global climate change are complicated by our not understanding the physics of the sun or of the earth’s atmosphere and oceans well enough to dismiss them as major causes of climate change on the earth. Dramatic climate changes like the [[medieval warm period]] at the time of the [[Viking]] settlements of [[Iceland]] and [[Greenland]] from about a.d. 900 to 1250, and the subsequent “[[little ice age]],” from about 1250 to 1700, which led to extinction of the Greenland settlements, were certainly not caused by manmade changes in the concentration of [[carbon dioxide]] in the atmosphere.<ref>http://media.hoover.org/documents/0817939326_27.pdf</ref></blockquote>

One of the major problems with many scientists' conclusions about climate change is a misunderstanding of [[correlation]] versus [[causation]]. Some studies show correlations between increasing concentrations of atmospheric greenhouse gases and increasing [[precipitation]], and between human activity and atmospheric greenhouse gases, and then go so far as to conclude that humans are causing increased rain, snow, and catastrophic flooding.<ref>Gillis, Justin. "Study Links Rise in Rain and Snow to Human Actions."

This is especially true considering the relatively short periods of data used (a few decades at most) compared to the Earth's age, and the fact that weather patterns have been cyclic throughout history (see [[climate cycles]]).

==History of Climate Change vs. Global Warming==
The term climate change has its origins several decades ago when physicist Gilbert Plass published a study called ''The Carbon Dioxide Theory of Climatic Change'' in 1956.<ref>http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.2153-3490.1956.tb01206.x/abstract</ref>
In this study, Plass postulated the release of CO2 into the atmosphere by industrial and other human activities may have caused the temperature rise noticed in the twentieth century.

The term global warming was first thought to be used by Wallace Broecker, a geochemist from [[Columbia University]]'s Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory. His paper, ''Climatic Change: Are We on the Brink of a Pronounced Global Warming?'' <ref>http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/files/2009/10/broeckerglobalwarming75.pdf</ref> acknowledged the scenario of global warming, though there was a common acknowledgement that airborne aerosols may cause global cooling.

A National Academy of Science study of carbon dioxide's impact on climate published in 1979 also used the term global warming to refer to surface temperature change.<ref>http://www.atmos.ucla.edu/~brianpm/download/charney_report.pdf</ref> Jule Charney of the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]] in Cambridge declared: "If carbon dioxide continues to increase, we find no reason to doubt that climate changes will result and no reason to believe that these changes will be negligible.” Climate change was still used to refer to the other changes thought to be caused by increased CO2.

::Well, since you brought it up, I have accepted Jesus Christ, I believe in the US constitution, I believe in the 2nd Amendment, I am pro-military, I am Patriotic toward America, and I want all of the tags on my user page that show this.

:::Okay, that shouldn't be too difficult. If you want to learn about userboxes and browse the existing options, you will want to look here: [[Conservapedia:Userboxes]]. Or, if you prefer, you can just use the applicable code I have on my profile page. 
:::First, you need a container, so put <code><nowiki>{{userboxtop|About Me}}</nowiki></code> on the top, and <code><nowiki>{{Userboxbottom}}</nowiki></code> on the bottom (other page content goes after this). ''The "About Me" message on the opening tag can be changed to whatever you prefer.'' Then, just load in the userboxes you want. I am using <code><nowiki>{{User Christian2}}</nowiki></code> to say I am a Christian, and <code><nowiki>{{User American}}</nowiki></code> to display my patriotism. I don't have a box specifically for the Constitution, expect for the limited government one: <code><nowiki>{{User limited govt}}</nowiki></code>. You can use that, or use this more straightforward one: <code><nowiki>{{User Constitution}}</nowiki></code>. Regarding the second amendment, I assume you are specificly talking about the right to have and bear arms. For that, you would probably want to use <code><nowiki>{{User progun}}</nowiki></code>. For the military, you probably want <code><nowiki>{{User patriot}}</nowiki></code>.

::: I think that covers everything, but if I missed anything, let me know. Also, feel free to look around for others you might like by [[Conservapedia:Userboxes#Userbox_Index|clicking through the categories]].

:::If all of my assumptions were correct, then you will want to put the following on your profile page:

== Troll blocking ==

Surprisingly, it's been 5 days since CP has had a troll blocked. [[User:Shobson20|Shobson20]] ([[User talk:Shobson20|talk]]) 01:27, 15 June 2018 (EDT)
:They come and go in waves. I'm sure they will be back, but that's no problem. We'll deal with them as we always do, when they return. Also, I don't know how much this has been helping, but I've been blocking many IP addresses (using [[User:DavidB4-bot|my bot]]) which can be used for sock accounts.

:Regarding trolls coming and going in waves, this is true. The worst of it most often comes in the summertime, when school is out and some kids are bored and have nothing better to do, so they go online (most often without parental supervision) and get into mischief there. [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 22:26, 15 June 2018 (EDT)
::And regarding your question about the IP addresses, you are correct that they can mask their IP, but it is those mask IPs we often block, so that they have a harder time of getting through. I don't want to discuss it in detail on a public talk page, though. They might learn something we would prefer they didn't know.

== Something I heard from an Atheist ==

I have seen twice from Atheists, that if they actually observed molecules-to-man evolution, that would somehow be evidence against it. Let me get this straight, If you could somehow travel back in time and live for the billions of years that molecules-to-man evolution would take and directly observe what you claim happened back then, it would somehow DISprove it? That's like saying that observing objects falling would somehow disprove gravity. [[User:Shobson20|Shobson20]] ([[User talk:Shobson20|talk]]) 19:16, 20 October 2018 (EDT)

:I thought of saying something on my user page along the lines of "watch out, trolls, I'm coming after you now!" But I decided not to because I feel that it's inappropriate because:

#It would sound like I was bragging and Matthew 23:12 says: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." and James 4:6 says: "But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: 'God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.'" In the original Greek, the word for proud means "to puff one's self up."
#I believe that Andy expects a certain level of decorum from people on this site, especially those to whom he has granted certain admin privileges. I think it is important to exercise a certain level of maturity and responsibility when you've been put in a position where your voice represents this site. After all, Jesus did not proudly flaunt the authority given to him by his Father.[[User:Shobson20|Shobson20]] ([[User talk:Shobson20|talk]]) 00:44, 16 December 2018 (EST)

:::That sounds like a wise choice--those are good reasons. Also, the way I see it, turning our focus to vandals gives them a sort of victory--they will have changed our behavior. However, there is nothing wrong with countering attacks to a reasonable degree.
:::As just a bit of housekeeping, please avoid blocking IP addresses indefinitely. The "Automatically block the last IP address used by this user..." option enables autoblock, which is very helpful and should typically be used. However, some IPs belong to entire schools, libraries, and companies, plus IP addresses get reassigned over time. Blocking them for long periods of time can prevent legitimate users from editing. For now, probably figure that a ban using autoblock should not typically be longer than a year. You can disable autoblock and ban an account permanently, but the IP will not be blocked, so they can just make another account. --[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]]) 01:19, 16 December 2018 (EST)

:::::I don't know if there's an official rule, but unofficially, we're not supposed to change admin blocks. Also, we strongly discourage the use of indefinite blocks.

:Great idea -- if the article is making an argument, it would be better to make it an essay (you could still add it to the "see also" sections of certain relevant articles).

:::If you want it to be a mainspace article, I suggest as a title something along the line of [[Liberalism and biblical principles]] -- as an encyclopedia article, its tone would have to be one of explanation rather than argument.

:[[Nehemiah]] in the Old Testament chose to ignore his unreasonable critics. Often that is the best course of action.

:Of course, there is a place for listening to constructive criticism and even unreasonable people can sometimes offer valid criticism. After all is said and done, you just have to have a proper balance in this matter and not be overly concerned about critics - especially ones of the unreasonable variety.

:Lastly, to answer you question, Mercian is the editor of an atheist/agnostic wiki that you alluded to.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 23:38, 16 April 2020 (EDT)

== Catholic vs. Protestant debates: I posted this material on User: NishantXavier and User: RobSmith's talk pages ==

Please read this material I posted on User: NishantXavier's and User: RobSmith's talk pages.

=== Please stop having debates on talk pages. Conservapedia has debate pages ===

Conservapedia has debate pages. For example, here is a debate page: [[Debate:Are alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine gateway drugs?]].

What I see now is a whole bunch of repetitive and poorly organized material on talk pages dealing with Catholic vs. Protestant issues that is not bringing web traffic. This needs to stop. I stopped reading this repetive material and I am others have as well.

If you are going to have debates, for the sake of Conservapedia readers, have them on debate pages. Nobody wants to read poorly organized and repetitive material.

So please stop having debates on talk pages. Conservapedia has debate pages.

Thank you.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 14:14, 18 July 2020 (EDT)

=== Addendum: Re: Catholic vs. Protestant debates on talk pages ===

I posted the below message to RobSmith and it refines my thinking on this matter.

RobSmith, I know you do your best to bring in web traffic which Conservapedians appreciate.

I have a small request.

Conservapedia has debate pages. For example, here is a debate page: [[Debate:Are alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine gateway drugs?]].

Having a debate on a specific issue, would make the debate exchanges more organized and debates with debate titles on the page would be more organized.

I would also suggest setting up debate guidelines. Because right now the back and forth between the Protestants and Catholics is getting repetitive. And because it is on talk pages, it tends not to be very organized.

What I see now is a whole bunch of repetitive and poorly organized material on talk pages dealing with Catholic vs. Protestant issues that is not bringing web traffic.

If you are going to have debates, for the sake of Conservapedia readers, have them on debate pages. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 14:23, 18 July 2020 (EDT)
=== Postscript ===

My main criticism is that these Protestant vs. Catholic exchanges are not on talk page articles relevant to the topic. They are not on debate pages. They are on User talk pages which is the worst places for these exchanges to take place.

When these exchanges take place on user talk pages, they tend to be unorganized, repetitive and "no holds barred". There are no rules or conventions when it comes to user talk pages. But article talk pages tend to be more topically relevant and organized. Debate pages tend to also be more organized and less repetitive.

== Thanks ==

Thank for your assistance and support.

Andy did agree with me that Catholic vs. Protestant issues are best done on debate pages which are: more informative, better organized, more civil and bring in more search engine traffic (Search engines like topically focused pages and user talk pages are a mishmash of various subjects and therefore do not rank well in the search results).

If there are any Catholic vs. Protestant issues as far as mainspace articles, the articles can be made objective with each side giving their position. And any disputes involving the mainspace articles being handled on the talk pages of the respective articles in a civil manner.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 15:28, 2 August 2020 (EDT)

:There is still one loose cannon though. And that is Liberaltears. He keeps posting on various Admin pages accusing you, me, and Rob of conspiring against the Catholic users. He also likes to keep bringing up how I complained to Andy about being ignored when I requested night edit rights back in January. To set the record straight, I stopped talking about that once Andy responded, but LT won't shut up about it. I assume that you also are declaring that users stop sniping about these issues. So if he does it again, I will delete his comments and block him again. Liberaltears, the horse is dead, stop beating it.

The two most infamous socialist regimes of the 20th century were the [[Bolsheviks]], headed by [[Vladimir Lenin]],<ref>http://www1.udel.edu/POSCISR/mwh/333/disc10/Lenintxt.html</ref> and the [[Nazi Party|National Socialist German Workers' Party]] (Nazi Party), headed by [[Adolf Hitler]].<ref>http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/adolf_hitler.htm</ref> The schism between these two competing leftist ideologies for global mastery resulted in [[World War II]].

Both [[Communism]] and [[Nazism]] are [[totalitarian]] or [[statist]], subverting the rights of individuals to the [[collective]] of a [[single party]]. Nazism deviates from orthodox Marxist theory in substituting racial and ethnic conflict for economic [[class warfare]]. Nazism substituted "[[Jews]]" as the oppressor class, responsible for all societal woes. Contemporary American leftists substitute race war for class conflict.

The [[Second World War]] was a life and death struggle between two [[leftwing]] interpretations of socialism - both atheistic and subverting the rights of individuals to the state, one considering "equality" to apply only to members of a nation or race, the other [[multicultural]] and [[globalist]]. After the [[United States]] assisted the [[communist]] victory over [[National Socialism]] (see [[Popular Front liberalism]]), the [[Cold War]] was an effort to suppress the spread of global communism. Socialists consider all forms of [[capitalism]] as "[[fascist]]" (see [[Antifa]]).

==Background==
Socialism traces its roots largely to the [[French Revolution]] and [[Paris Commune]], in visions of imaginary (often unrealistic) ideal societies, from thinkers who drew up elaborated designs and concepts for creating what they considered a more equal society, along collectivist lines or abolished [[private property]]; the primary ideas came from Jewish, British, and French thinkers like [[Karl Marx]], [[Henri de Saint-Simon|Saint-Simon]], [[Charles Fourier]], Louis Blanc, and [[Robert Owen]] preceded by [[Thomas More]], Tommaso Campanella, and Jean Meslier.

===As a political theory===
As a political theory, socialism relies on dehumanization and scapegoating to build a constituent base. For example, that "the rich," "white people",<ref>See [[Critical race theory]]</ref> "Jews," "millionaires and billionaires," "the top 1%," "capitalist scum" or "landowners" are responsible for all of humanity's ills. Socialism targets the youth of a nation and people without life experience using naive, simplistic, and "feel good" slogans ("[[Medicare for All]]," "tuition-free education," "free housing." etc., for example) that on the surface appeal to self-interest, while asking nothing of the hearers to contribute to the economic well being of their fellow citizens or society. Once in power, socialists compel compliance with [[authoritarian]] decrees (the "individual mandate" and "shared responsibility payment" of [[Obamacare]] for example) suppress any form of criticism, censor [[free speech]], and silence or exterminate opposition in order to maintain power for themselves. There is nothing [[democracy|democratic]] about socialism, and terms such as "[[democratic socialism]]" or "[[social democracy]]" are [[oxymoron]]s that are typical of Marxist double-speak and double-think. Socialist leaders often live in extreme luxury even as they fail to improve the lives of those they rule over,<ref>Lott, Maxim (March 11, 2019).

===As an economic theory===
As an economic theory, socialism is an [[authoritarian]] system which advocates strict state [[economic planning|command and control]] of [[income]]s and distribution or rationing of goods and services, including food and healthcare. High taxation to expropriate wealth from the supposed "oppressor class" is common to all socialist regimes. Removal of incentives and demonizing the [[profit]] motive, while expecting common people to produce goods and services, and supply tax revenues to government, for little or no pay is a [[psychotic]] dream. After exterminating "corporations" and "the rich," the cost burden of government - which controls everything - naturally falls to an impoverished working class, the unemployed, and homeless which previously paid no taxes. No one can retain anything for themselves because the profit motive is dis-incentivized or outlawed. Due to its core [[anti-democratic]] and authoritarian precepts, socialism is considered [[treason]]ous to [[America]]'s central ideal of [[liberty]].

Socialism at all times has never amounted to more than a [[criminal]] cabal that enlists the aid of corrupt politicians and [[civil service system|civil servants]], [[monopolist]] [[oligarch]]s, academics, the disgruntled, naive youth, and remaining misfits of society against the ordinary worker or middle class.

Through [[affirmative action]] programs, Nazism and Bolshevism granted workers and peasants access to educational and employment opportunities previously only available to the German and Russian bourgeois and [[nobility]] (the "oppressor class") at the price of membership and loyalty to the party. The modern Chinese system is built upon the same model.

==Historic types==
[[Image:Backrdv12n2.jpg|right|400px|thumb|The Russian caption reads, "Long live the great unbeatable flag of [[Karl Marx|Marx]], [[Friedrich Engels|Engels]], [[Vladimir Lenin|Lenin]], [[Joseph Stalin|Stalin]]!"]]
There are three main kinds of Socialism, all of them are built on the premise of government control of the means of production.

===Leninism===

Marxist Socialism, or '''Leninism''', as revised by [[Vladimir Lenin]] and practiced in the pre-[[Joseph Stalin|Stalin]] Soviet Union, was the Socialistic theory developed by Vladimir Lenin during his rise to power. Lenin defined socialism as a transitional stage between capitalism and communism.<ref>"In striving for socialism, however, we are convinced that it will develop into communism", Lenin, State and Revolution, Selected Works, Progress publishers, Moscow, 1968, p. 320. (End of chapter four)</ref> Leninism is totalitarian, with no [[democracy]] and all decisions are made by the leaders of the Communist party. Lenin saw the Communist Party as an "elite" that was committed to ending capitalism and instituting socialism in its place and attaining the power by any means possible, including revolution. Lenin was quite mild on the belief, believing that, though controlling of resources was important, the people's will comes first.

Though [[Bolshevik]] Russia was somewhat more industrial than its former [[Russian Empire|Tsardom]], Lenin's death in 1924 sparked the overthrow of his vision of Marxist–Leninism and the instead the imposition of [[Stalinism]], the other violent, totalitarian belief that went against some of Lenin's ideas (many of Lenin's works were censored by Stalin post-1924). That said, however, there was some evidence that Stalin's totalitarian beliefs were if anything advancements of policies Lenin himself implemented, and that Lenin himself may have been even more ruthless than Stalin in certain respects.<ref>[https://newcriterion.com/issues/2019/10/leninthink Leninthink] at The New Criterion</ref>

===="Democratic" Socialism====
[[File:Ellison-antifa.jpg|right|175px|thumb|[[Democratic National Committee]] Vice-Chair [[Keith Ellison]] promoted Anitfa.]]
The second form of Socialism (sometimes called "Revisionism") prevailed in Europe down to the 1970s, and is typified by the [[Fabian Socialism|Fabian Society]] and the British Labour Party. It was inspired by Socialism and closely linked to labor unions that had real power. The goal was for [[Industrial Democracy]], that is, for the government to own ("nationalize") major industries such as coal mining, railways, steel making, shipbuilding, airlines, and banking. Small businesses remained private. The idea was that labor unions controlled the government and therefore unions controlled working conditions and wages for the benefit of workers, regardless of the damage to long-term economic growth.

The Socialists were well organized and after 1918 they bitterly fought the breakaway faction that became the [[Communist]] movement. In recent years major Socialist parties (in Europe and Canada) have sometimes dropped the long-standing demands for state ownership of the means of production and have mostly accepted "Controlled Capitalism". However, they remain tied to labor unions and favor liberal policies regarding high taxes and public spending. Conservatives have been negative toward the economics of the second form of socialism. Conservatives complain socialists use government power to redistribute wealth.

Within the [[European Union]], a form of [[democratic socialism]] was initially viewed as successful but eventually lead to lowered social equity and a downward spiraling economy, as well as general discontent. Although this acts as a drag on the economy, in democratic countries of the industrialized west, some socialist ideas have been put into practice with varying degrees of success. Beginning in 2010 many European countries were racked with rioting and social unrest as governments began to back away from out-of-control entitlements that began bankrupting them and lead to a world financial crisis because of unrestrained debt.<ref>[http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703791804575439732358241708.html WSJ; "Obstacle to Deficit Cutting: A Nation on Entitlements"]</ref><ref>[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100929/ap_on_bi_ge/eu_europe_austerity_protests_10 Anti-austerity protests sweep across Europe]</ref><ref>[http://www.allbusiness.com/economy-economic-indicators/economic-policy-bailouts/14758032-1.html "Debt crisis pushes Europe toward economic reforms"]</ref>

In the early 21st century, Socialism was becoming increasingly prominent in the West.<ref>Ozimek, Tom (November 9, 2019). [https://www.theepochtimes.com/socialism-stirs-again-30-years-after-collapse-of-berlin-wall_3141025.html Socialism Stirs Again 30 Years After Collapse of Berlin Wall]. ''The Epoch Times''. Retrieved November 9, 2019.</ref>

====Communal Socialism====
The third form of Socialism has nothing to do with Marx or government ownership, and emphasizes the importance of the community over the individual. Usually, it means small communities sharing most of their possessions. The most famous examples are the religious [[Shakers]] of the 19th century (a conservative group), and the new-left communes that briefly existed in the 1960s and 70s.

Early American settlers, as in Plymouth or Virginia, tried it but quickly abandoned it.

:The Pilgrims in Plymouth used communal farming their first winter but then after a dismal harvest that first year, moved to a system where there was a more direct incentive other than guilt and honor. Governor Bradford summed it up in his journal:
:* "And so assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number, for that end, only for present use (but made no division for inheritance) and ranged all boys and youth under some family. This had very good success, for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the Governor or any other could use, and saved him a great deal of trouble, and gave far better content. The women now went willingly into the field, and took their little ones with them to set corn; which before would allege weakness and inability; whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression."
:Not only were all hands more industrious—the incentive to harvest communal corn before it was fully ripe, a problem equivalent to poaching in the case of wildlife, was also eliminated.<ref>[http://www.econlib.org/library/Columns/y2006/Robertsincentives.html Incentives Matter] - Russell Roberts - Library of Economics and Liberty</ref>

====Influence of Russia on socialism====
Not until the birth of the [[Soviet Union]] after the [[Communist Revolution]] did the idea become generally accepted that socialism meant government seizing ownership of the economy. Experience in 19th and 20th century [[France]], [[England]], and [[Germany]], however, made it clear that regulatory control by government bureaucrats is sufficient to implement socialism.<ref>[http://www.thomasbrewton.com/index.php/weblog/once_again_what_is_socialism/ What is Socialism?]</ref>

In Communism (the primary variant of socialism) the central goal is to establish a "[[workers' paradise]]"-an ideal state with perfect equality.

In practice the socialist government owns the banks, railroads, farmlands, factories, and stores, and is the only employer, or at least controls the regulation of production and distribution. The central goal is to destroy the "evils of capitalism" by government ownership or control of the means of production, usually with one party controlling the government on behalf of the working class.

The socialist system never manages to establish this "paradise" because management for the benefit of the employees leads to featherbedding and lack of investment or economic growth, at the expense of consumers. Collective farming (operating farms like factories) sharply reduced the food supply. The most thoroughgoing efforts by Communist regimes turned into authoritarian dictatorships. The government controls all investments, production, distribution, income, and prices, as well as all organizations, schools, news media and formerly private societies. Churches and labor unions are suppressed or controlled by the government. Socialism is the antithesis of [[capitalism]], because it opposes private ownership of capital or land, and rejects the free market in favor of central planning. It also rejects "civil society" and makes sure that all organizations are controlled by the government.

Theoretically, socialist regimes can have multiple parties. In practice there is only one political party, and it controls the government. The leaders of the party choose the government officials and set all policies for the nation and for cities and localities. Opposition parties are not allowed access to the media or to meeting halls or to funding, and their leaders are often arrested as "enemies of the people."

As a political ideology based on the redistribution of wealth, socialism stresses the privileges of the many over the rights of the few, but in practice when socialist economic principles are forced onto a nation by a totalitarian government a new Upper Class appears which is much better off than the Lower Class.

Socialism supposedly is an "intellectual" pursuit. Raisa Gorbachev, the wife of the last General Secretary of the Soviet Communist Party [[Mikhail Gorbachev]], held a "PhD in Marxism-Leninism." Raisa Gorbachev died in a German hospital of [[leukemia]] because her beloved Soviet homeland was incapable of delivering proper healthcare, even for the elite of the Soviet Socialist Republic, after 70 years of socialism.

===National Socialism===
National socialism, as with all brands of socialism, begins with a rejection of God and substituting a [[nation state]], government, or people as the object of [[worship]] and the desired end of all human interactions. The [[Ludwig von Mises Institute]] declares:
[[Image:Hitler.jpg|thumb|250px|right|One of the most well known political parties of the 20th century was the [[National Socialist]] party of Germany headed by the [[evolution|evolutionary racist]] [[Adolf Hitler]].<ref name="mises">http://mises.org/daily/1937</ref><ref name="darNaz">https://creation.com/darwinism-and-the-nazi-race-holocaust</ref><ref name="hott">http://www.hourofthetime.com/socialist.htm</ref> ]]
{{Quotebox-float|The identification of [[Nazi]] [[Germany]] as a socialist state was one of the many great contributions of [[Ludwig von Mises]]...

The basis of the claim that Nazi Germany was capitalist was the fact that most industries in Nazi Germany appeared to be left in private hands.

What Mises identified was that private ownership of the means of production existed in name only under the Nazis and that the actual substance of ownership of the means of production resided in the German government. For it was the German government and not the nominal private owners that exercised all of the substantive powers of ownership: it, not the nominal private owners, decided what was to be produced, in what quantity, by what methods, and to whom it was to be distributed, as well as what prices would be charged and what wages would be paid, and what dividends or other income the nominal private owners would be permitted to receive. The position of the alleged private owners, Mises showed, was reduced essentially to that of government pensioners.

De facto government ownership of the means of production, as Mises termed it, was logically implied by such fundamental collectivist principles embraced by the Nazis as that the common good comes before the private good and the individual exists as a means to the ends of the State. If the individual is a means to the ends of the State, so too, of course, is his property. Just as he is owned by the State, his property is also owned by the State.}} Hitler found the notion of single-party control very attractive. That, and the idea of creating a "New man" in a godless socialist order, enlightened by science, victorious over their oppressors. Nazism was outlawed at the end of [[World War II]].

===Britain, the Labour Party and Socialism===
At its inception, the [[Labour Party]] borrowed socialist ideas by committing itself to a program of nationalization under 'Clause 4' of their Constitution, but was always fundamentally committed to the British system of parliamentary government. Clause 4 was formally dropped after the election of [[Tony Blair]] as Party leader, signaling the creation of 'New' Labour.<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/july/21/newsid_2515000/2515825.stm</ref> The British governments of 1945-1950 and 1950-1951 under [[Clement Attlee]] implemented the nationalization of several industries and utilities, including coal, steel, water, railways and electricity. Former owners of nationalized industries were compensated. The best-known example is the nationalization of health care to create the [[National Health Service]] (NHS). This made - literally overnight - health care "free" at the point of delivery for everybody in Britain, and it remains so today.

In the 1980s under Conservative Prime Minister [[Margaret Thatcher]] most of the nationalized industries were returned to the private sector, and public housing has been sold to the residents. These conservative decisions were endorsed by the "New Labour" of Tony Blair, to the annoyance of elderly radicals who fondly remember the poverty and inefficiencies of the old system.

Now it is up to 35 percent, and when health care is fully implemented, it will rise to above 40 percent. But taxes are still below 30 percent. The difference is the deficit, now grown to 10 percent of our GDP.

If our government is to continue spending 40 percent of our GDP, we will morph into the European model of a socialist democracy. But if we can roll the spending back to 30 percent, while holding taxes level, we will retain our free market system.<ref>https://townhall.com/columnists/DickMorrisandEileenMcGann/2010/04/24/the_silent_killer_obamas_vat_proposal</ref>}}

=====Stimulus=====
[[Larry Summers]] was the Director of the White House's National Economic Council (NEC) for President Barack Obama. George Gerald Reisman, Professor Emeritus of Economics at [[Pepperdine University]] and author of ''Capitalism: A Treatise on Economics'', wrote that Summers' socialistic ideas on redistributing wealth demonstrate that [[Larry Summers]] is a "lightweight leftist" who "fails to understand the nature of the most essential feature of capitalism, namely, private ownership of the means of production and the indispensable role it plays in the standard of living of the average person."<ref name="misesblog">http://blog.mises.org/archives/009031.asp</ref> Reisman also wrote that Summers is a shallow and ignorant man whose knowledge of economics is minimal and whose evil views qualify him to be the economic advisor to [[Hugo Chavez]] of [[Venezuela]] or [[Robert Mugabe]] of [[Zimbabwe]], but do not qualify him to be an economic advisor to the President of the United States.<ref name="misesblog" />

=====Land grab=====

Agriculture Secretary [[Tom Vilsack]] crusaded for “the need for additional attention to the Land and Water Conservation Fund — and the need to promptly support full funding of that fund.”

Property owners have every reason to be worried. The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) is a pet project of green radicals, who want the decades-old government slush fund for buying up private lands to be freed from congressional appropriations oversight. It’s paid for primarily with receipts from the government’s offshore oil and gas leases. Both Senate and House Democrats have included $900 million in full LWCF funding, not subject to congressional approval, in their energy/BP oil spill legislative packages.<ref>https://hotair.com/archives/2010/08/14/great-outdoors-initiative-a-federal-land-grab/</ref>}}

=====You didn't build that=====
:{{main|You didn't build that}}
On July 13, 2012, at a campaign event in [[Virginia]], Obama gave a speech that immediately stirred up controversy. Speaking about the government's role in the success of private business, he said:<ref>[https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/07/13/remarks-president-campaign-event-roanoke-virginia Remarks by the President at a Campaign Event in Roanoke, Virginia], White House</ref>

Somebody else made that happen.}} The [[Romney]] campaign has used "If you’ve got a business—you didn’t build that" in ads to show America that Obama believes it is government that creates business rather than hard-working individuals. The Obama campaign has alternatively stated that the sentenced was poorly worded since he was not giving a scripted speech and that when Obama said "that" he was referring to roads and bridges. Obama points to a later portion of his speech in which he said, "The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together," to support his claim.

==Contradictory goals of socialism==
Socialism's stated purpose is to eliminate the huge gap between the highest and lowest classes of society. Their bitter complaint has been that the upper class exploits its dominance to gain privileges and wealth, while the lower class must suffer tyranny and poverty.<ref>"all socialists agree that a socialist economy must be run for the benefit of the vast majority of the people rather than for a small aristocratic, plutocratic, or capitalist class." [http://www.experiencefestival.com/socialism_-_an_economic_system]</ref> This obsession with class paradoxically creates a group of people with a vested interest in seeing class differences remain (socialist politicians, [[community organizer]]s, ''etc.''); if by some means the class system actually ''were'' destroyed, these people would be out of a job.

Another essential goal of most socialist thinkers has been to eliminate [[Capitalism]],<ref>"... one of the fundamental goals of the socialist movement throughout history has been the abolition of capitalism" [http://www.experiencefestival.com/socialism_-_opposition_and_criticisms_of_socialism_arguments_for_and_against A Wisdom Archive on Socialism - Opposition and criticisms of socialism; arguments for and against]</ref>
on the grounds that only "social control" of the economy can prevent abuses such as [[feudalism]], [[monopoly]], [[cartel]]s, etc.

But experiments on both a moderate and a grand scale have shown that socialism's main purpose has been undermined by its unremitting opposition to [[free market]] economics. In its drive to eliminate capitalism, it has overlooked the fact that general prosperity is vouchsafed by [[economic freedom]], and that free market economics improves the lot of the poor much more quickly and permanently than any system of central economic control.

The real aim of socialists is probably personal: why else would socialists want to create programs which encourage Dependency? Well, it fits into their lust for power.
People who want to control others need people who are willing to be controlled.
Independent, proactive people do not fit into the socialist Power Model. That is why the first thing [[Karl Marx|Marx]] wanted to remove from the economy was the [[Profit]] Motive: it gives people an incentive to make their own decisions!

==Key elements==
As a political ideology based on the expropriation of wealth, socialism stresses the privileges of the nomenklatura over the rights of workers and earners. Many of the most notoriously oppressive dictatorships have been socialist, such as the [[Soviet Union]] and China under Mao Zedong. Private wealth was seized and the owners executed.

===Marx contribution to economics===
The [[Atheism|atheist]] [[Karl Marx]] is sometimes referred to as the father of socialism. Economist Thomas Sowell observed:
{{quotebox-float|The Marxian contribution to economics can be readily summarized as virtually zero. Professional economics as it exists today reflects no indication that Karl Marx ever existed... [T]he development of modern economics has simply ignored Marx. Even economists who are Marxists typically utilize a set of analytical tools to which Marx contributed nothing.<ref>Thomas Sowell, ''[http://books.google.com/books?id=TVkVAAAAIAAJ Marxism: Philosophy and Economics]'' (Taylor & Francis, 1985) ISBN 0043201717, p. 217.</ref>}}

Because the individual is subordinate to the collective, the use of [[democide]], or "death by government," is another feature of socialism in the final stage of bringing about a single party, anti-democratic totalitarian regime.

===Welfare state===
As an economic theory, democratic socialism calls for equalization of incomes, through taxation of private wealth coupled with [[welfare state]] spending. The [[nationalization]] of major industries is primarily a device to allow the unionized workers to control their own wages and working conditions, cutting out the capitalistic owners.

State [[pension]]s and unemployment insurance were not brought in by Socialists—they were first introduced by arch-conservative Chancellor [[Bismarck]] in Germany in the 1870s. In Britain they were introduced about 1910 by [[Winston Churchill]] and [[David Lloyd George]] of the [[Liberal Party]], and in the U.S. were part of Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt's [[New Deal]] in the 1930s. Welfare state ideas such as [[universal health care]], and state control of key industries have been common throughout the developed world in the modern era. However, the United States has always rejected socialism as an ideological position, with a few exceptions such as the [[TVA]].

===So-called "mixed economies"===
:{{See also|Social democracy|Mixed economy}}
Social democracies and Mixed economies are socialism by [[incrementalism]]. Often socialism is a matter of degree and numerous economies in the world are very socialistic such as [[Europe]]an countries (many of which are facing financial difficulties due to over taxation and excessive spending).<ref>https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2010/05/european_socialism_is_bleeding.html</ref> The single party has yet to gain full control.

Because many businesses still are privately owned, [[ipso facto]], the [[United States]] is not a socialistic government. "That definition is confuted by the earliest theoretical writings on socialism. In France, Henri de Saint-Simon, in the first decades of the 1800s, and his pupil and colleague [[Auguste Comte]], in the 1820s and 30s, along with [[Robert Owen]] contemporaneously in England, ''stated that the essential feature of what Owen called socialism is government regulation of the means of production and distribution."'' <ref>[http://www.thomasbrewton.com/index.php/weblog/once_again_what_is_socialism/ Thomas E. Brewton; Once Again: What Is Socialism?]</ref>
When the government controls the volume of money and its economic applications, it has the economy in a stranglehold. When government controls education so that nothing other than secular socialism may be taught, as Saint-Simon advocated, it controls the future destiny of a nation.

===Religion===
Some forms of socialism have often been [[atheism|atheistic]] in character, and many leading socialists (most prominently Karl Marx) have been critical of the role of religion - and conservative religion in particular - which they criticize for lending support to an unjust social order.

Other Socialists have been Christians, and there has been considerable interplay between Christian and Socialist ideas. [[Christian socialists]] have asserted that early Christian communities, in particular, displayed certain traits, such as the holding of possessions in common,<ref>Acts 2:44: "Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need."</ref> the rejection of conventional sexual mores and gender roles, the provision for communal education, etc., that could be considered similar to socialism.

During the chaos sparked by the advent of the Reformation in Europe, several sects with radical new interpretations of Christianity sprung up, many of them Anabaptists (believers in adult baptism). Under the leadership of the reformer Thomas Muntzer the peasants of south-west Germany rose up in arms against the clergy and nobility, establishing anarcho-communes in their wake. Though they were massacred to a man, ten years later a group of radical Anabaptists under the leadership of Jan Matthys seized control of the north-western Germany city of Munster from the Prince-Archbishop there and established a Christian-Communist state. True to the spirit of applied communism, Mathys took twelve wives, held lavish feasts for himself and his most loyal followers and had himself crowned King of the World as the city starved, besieged by an alliance of Protestant and Catholic forces keen to see them exterminated. Mathys and all his followers were all tortured and killed when the Prince-Archbishop returned with professional troops to sack the city and reassert his authority, effectively wiping out all non-pacifistic Anabaptists in north-western Germany. Only Baptists as we know them today survived the following persecution.

See, for instance, Arnold Toynbee, the British historian, has responded to this,
:"the Marxian excerpt from a Christian Socialism is an experiment which is doomed to failure because it has denied itself the aid of the spiritual power which alone is capable of making Socialism a success. ….'Christianity', they say, 'is the opiate of the People'; and, in the [[Soviet Union]]… Christianity or of any other theistic religion have been debarred… from admission to membership of the All-Union Communist Party. In fact, Communism has been definitely and militantly anti-Christian. Thus the campaign against Christianity which is to-day an integral part of the propaganda of [[Marxian Socialism]] is a challenge to the living generation of Christians …we latter-day Christians may still turn a Marxian attack upon Christianity to good account … a re-awakening of the Christian social conscience has been the one great positive practical achievement of Karl Marx" <ref>Arnold Toynbee, ''A Study of History'', Annex II to Vol. V, Part C (i) (c) 2, p. 585-586, Marxism, Socialism, and Christianity.</ref>

====Alleged New Testament socialism in a godless utopia====
Socialist claim the earliest Christians were decidedly living in a manner consistent with basic aims of socialism, albeit with critical requirements and distinctions from its secularist expressions. Luke 14:33 requires the forsaking of all one has if one will be a disciple of Christ, and while this is not shown to necessarily always require the literally forsaking of all,<ref>Lk. 19:8,9; Acts 16:14,15; 1Cor. 11:22; 2Tim. 4:13</ref> Acts 2:44 states that the communal believers "had all things common". Acts 4:32-5:11 also describes community redistribution of property, and details the Divine punishment of a husband and wife for hypocrisy, in keeping proceeds from the sale of a piece of property while openly pretending that they gave it all, as others voluntarily did.<ref>Matthew Henry’s Commentary on the Whole Bible, (5:1-11)</ref>

However, forsaking all is shown to be that of first surrendering oneself and life to the God of the Bible, and placing all at His disposal,<ref>Matthew Henry (1662 - 1714), ''Commentary on the Whole Bible'', Lk. 14:25-35</ref><ref>Archibald Thomas Robertson, ''WORD PICTURES IN THE NEW TESTAMENT'', Lk. 14:33</ref> with literal giving as a result being as He directs, and voluntary. (2Cor. 8,9)
{{cquote|Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: (2 Corinthians 9:7-8)}}

While the early organic community provides a noble model of communal life, and of a "seminary" type experience, it was also soon dispersed by persecution (thus greatly expanding the church: Acts 8:1-5; 11:19), and it is later indicated that believers retained ownership of property after conversion. (Lk. 19:8,9; Acts 16:14,15; 1Cor. 11:22; 2Tim. 4:13) Rich Christians are evidenced to have been part of the early church, but were not mandated by the church itself to give all they had away, but to be lowly in mind, and to be ready and willing to distribute, in faith and surrender to God. (1Tim. 6:17-19)

Moreover, in both Testaments capitalism is clearly supported,<ref>Gary North, ''Capitalism and the Bible''</ref> and indolence is not subsidized, but penalized by poverty, while diligence in work is rewarded by its fruits. (Prov. 6:6-11; 13:4; 20:4; 2 Thes. 3:10-12; 1 Tim. 5:17-18) Although holy widows over 60 years old who were without familial support were taken in by the church, a man is clearly required to provide for his own family, if able. (1Tim. 5:2ff)

While the success of the early church as an organic community is often invoked in support of modern socialism, and many communes of the 1960s evoked the Bible, the early organic church was a result of the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit among believers, while the "administrators" were humble servants who were examples of self-sacrifice, and who worked with their own hands as needed, (1Cor. 4:9-16) and whose authority was established by manifest Divine attestation, including the pro-active exercise of church discipline being only by supernatural or otherwise spiritual means, not carnal force.<ref>Acts 2:43; 5:5,9,10; 1Cor. 4:19-21; 2Cor. 13:2,3; 2Thes. 3:14,15; 2Tim. 4:2</ref>

In addition, other distinctions, without the unique changes and influence resulting from faith and full surrender to Christ from all the community, and His anointing upon the work, attempts to mimic the communal life of Christians have failed.

As one critic of modern-day socialism states:
<blockquote>Socialism, unfortunately, completely disregards Biblical teaching about the fallen nature of human beings and assumes that human beings will act in a morally upright fashion if their basic needs are met. This is at the heart of why socialistic systems never work: because human nature does not work in this fashion.<ref>[http://www.dakotavoice.com/2009/06/capitalism-and-socialism-in-light-of-the-bible Bob Ellis, ''Capitalism and Socialism in Light of the Bible''] Dakota Voice, June 23rd, 2009</ref></blockquote>

==Criticism==
[[Friedrich Hayek]] and [[Ludwig von Mises]] were important critics of socialism, particularly regarding what is known as the Socialist Calculation Debate. Hayek and Mises argued that a socialist economy would face information constraints that would prevent even well-intentioned planners from efficiently allocating resources. That is, the planners would not know how much a battleship or a hospital cost, and could not efficiently allocate resources among different choices. This criticism should be considered as compatible with, but independent of, criticisms based on [[Public choice theory]] that bring into consideration the incentives of political actors.

Svetlana Kunin, who lived in the Soviet Union until 1980 explains how the system worked:
<blockquote>
Life in the USSR modeled the socialist ideal. God-based religion was suppressed and replaced with cultlike adoration for political figures....Only the ruling class of communist leaders had access to special stores, medicine and accommodations that could compare to those in the West. The rest of the citizenry had to deal with permanent shortages of food and other necessities, and had access to free but inferior, unsanitary and low-tech medical care.
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
USSR, 1959: I am a "young pioneer" in school. History classes remind us that there is a higher authority than their parents and teachers: the leaders of the Communist Party.
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
Those who left Russia found a different set of values in America: freedom of religion, speech, individual pursuits, the right to private property and free enterprise....These opportunities let the average immigrant live a better life than many elites in the Soviet Communist Party...
</blockquote>

<blockquote>
The slogans of "fairness and equality" sound better than the slogans of capitalism. But unlike at the beginning of the 20th century, when these slogans and ideas were yet to be tested, we have accumulated history and reality.<ref>[http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/SpecialReport.aspx?id=512665 ''The Perspective Of A Russian Immigrant''], ''Investors Business Daily,'' 09/10/2009</ref>
</blockquote>

A government which adheres to economic socialistic principles also tends to have cultures which prize unmerited equality among citizen and criminal alike, and through extension of socialistic welfare policies, between the chronically employed and the chronically unemployed, by ensuring both groups receive income though only one group works for income. This enables people otherwise healthy to not seek gainful employment because they will receive income no matter their actions, thus providing no incentive to produce. The economies of socialistic governments are thus weak and riddled with flaws, such as expecting increased production from a reduced workforce, and when engendered with a progressive culture, which simply means people who do are the same as people who do not, eventually fall under the weight of their own poorly managed and over-extended public welfare institutions. Public welfare also decreases personal charity, thus making the people dependent on the aid of the government since charitable aid, such as from a church, is discouraged by the secular nature of socialistic nations.

Socialists occasionally appeal to the fact that God, in the Old Testament, commanded His own nation to surrender a tenth of its proceeds for the maintenance of the priests and for the care of the sickly and weak. But, while fallen men, and their secular and pagan nations, shall always struggle to understand the righteous balances between government and liberty.<ref name="npr">[https://www.npr.org/2011/08/23/139761274/how-the-a-p-changed-the-way-we-shop ''The Great A&P and the Struggle for Small Business in America''], "NPR’s interview of the book’s author, Marc Levinson"</ref> (i.e., between local and national logistics, as well as between the logistics of the individual person and those of his community) the mark of socialism is the general allowance for a naive, and willingly ignorant, adult sub-population whose members prefer, despite the limitations imposed by bureaucratic accountability, to live under all the securities rightly afforded in the fallen world only to infants. In the unfallen world, such security was a given for all persons, but without any of the bureaucracy required in the fallen world for maintaining it. In the fallen world, such security is an unattainable ideal, so that the more is done to attain it, the more the society suffers under the requisite bureaucracy. And, while the initial policy made toward that ideal is the creation of an executive class or executive vocation, such as monarchies and professional armies,<ref>[http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible.cfm?b=1Sa&c=8&t=KJV#19 ''First Samuel 8:19-20''] Blue Letter Bible</ref><ref>[http://www.wbur.org/media-player?url=http://hereandnow.wbur.org/2011/09/29/consequences-combat-vietnam&title=The+Consequences+Of+Combat&segment=consequences-combat-vietnam&pubdate=2011-09-29&source=hereandnow ''Interview of Vietnam war veteran, and '''What It Is Like To Go To War''' author, Karl Marlantes, on NPR's Here And Now'']</ref> there is a 'tipping point' in the creation of bureaucratic entities beyond which any civilization cannot help but increasingly lose its footing in the struggle to balance all its righteous human interests. The result is an ever-increasing proportion of that civilization's total population which, for all variety of reasons, becomes enslaved to their own demands for that ideal of security. When there is no judge who judges righteously, when all the people make the laws, and when the power of money is used to try to stay ahead of the natural consequences of unrighteousness, the 'bad money' cannot help but drive out the 'good money', until the 'Bank of Reality' is forced to call in the loan, and the civilization implodes to the point that it falls victim also to militant invaders and, or, to unmanageable internal unrest.<ref name="npr" />

==Past Socialist Countries==
===Chile===
Marxist socialist leader [[Salvador Allende]] was elected in Chile in 1970 in a minority government run by the Popular Unity Party. Allende's economic policy, known as the Vuskovic Plan, sought to achieve transition to socialism. The Vuskovic Plan involved nationalization of large foreign enterprises, land redistribution to farmers, and redistribution of income. The majority in Parliament never supported it and the plan was never carried out as Allende was overthrown by the military.

==Other Socialist Countries (Current)==

===[[Cuba]]===
Communist leader [[Fidel Castro]] violently overthrew the Cuban government in the 1950s and has declared Cuba to be communist since then, nationalizing millions of dollars worth of American-owned property. It is notable that Fidel Castro originally self-defined as [[liberal]], before coming out openly as a communist.<ref>[http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=5&ved=0CGoQFjAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fib-global-history-ii-period-5.aspen.high.schoolfusion.us%2Fmodules%2Flocker%2Ffiles%2Fget_group_file.phtml%3Ffid%3D6868636%26gid%3D1176955%26sessionid%3D0&ei=o74IUPDNOqPp6wGbtPGxCg&usg=AFQjCNG1bEoHrxurCF_WL1OPKMxIb4hCTw Fidel Castro - His Rise and Rule of Cuba]</ref> Today, Cuba faces copious economic problems and the people lack their fundamental rights. (Fidel's brother [[Raul Castro]] now runs the country, having taken it over from his ailing brother Fidel.)

===North Korea===

[[North Korea]]'s form of communism is in the form of "Juche" - a doctrine established by [[Kim Il Sung]] and carried on by his son [[Kim Jong Il]] and after his death by the current leader [[Kim Jong-un]]. Although it is investing heavily in nuclear weapons and long-range missiles, extreme poverty on the verge of starvation is the fate of the people, who are very tightly controlled. The country has little to no electrical power at night outside the capital, which can be verified by looking at nighttime satellite photos.<ref>http://epod.usra.edu/archive/epodviewer.php3?oid=87488</ref>

===Venezuela===

The socialist policies of president-for-life Hugo Chavez have destroyed the economy of that oil-rich nation. In 2009, he seized the Venezuelan operations of U.S. based Cargill in order to tighten his grip on the shrinking food supply in his country.<ref>https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/southamerica/venezuela/4938993/Venezuelas-Hugo-Chavez-tightens-state-control-of-food-amid-rocketing-inflation-and-food-shortages.html</ref> After the death of Chavez, [[Nicolás Maduro]] continues his policies.

===Other Countires===
[[Daniel Ortega]], the dictator of [[Nicaragua]], is a strong ally of Venezuela and Cuba. [[China]] and [[Vietnam]] have abolished the Socialist economy but are still governed by Communist parties. Other countries who are controlled by Socialist parties are [[Laos]], [[Angola]], [[Mozambique]] and [[Moldova]].

==Controversy==
''This section confuses "interpretation" with "debate".''

The ideology of '''Socialism''' is subject to a variety of interpretations. From a conservative perspective, Marxist socialism is an economic system whereby the means of production are seized and monopolized by the government sometimes without compensation to the builders of the [[capital]]. Investments, production, distribution, income, prices, and economic justice are administered by a government [[nomenklatura]] that regulates the transfer of money, goods (including capital goods), and services primarily through taxation, regulation and aggressive institutionalized coercion.

However, some socialists reject this description. Democratic socialists advocate a system of governance based on the principles of [[solidarity]], [[equality]] and [[liberty]], viewing these principles as interconnected. They believe increased socio-economic equality is associated with increased practical freedom to fulfill human potential. In many countries, such as Britain, socialist movements have been built on Christian, democratic and co-operative bases, embracing the notion that individuals should 'treat others as they would wish to be treated', and arguing that all individuals have a moral responsibility for the welfare of other members of their society. Socialism seeks to prioritize human welfare over other goals, such as profit and wealth accumulation by elites; it views increased redistribution of wealth as vital to securing greater freedom and happiness for the bulk of the people. Though this rosy picture of socialism is appealing to many, it ignores what Hayek called "[[the road to serfdom]]." Though in theory socialism is an idealized, egalitarian form of economics, in practice it means rule by labor bosses who minimize individualism and economic growth in the name of equality and benefits for the working class.

[[Karl Marx]] considered socialism to be a transitory stage between capitalism and communism. In his view, socialism is summed up by the expression: "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs." A major criticism of socialism is that it infringes individual rights in favor of the populace. In a very real sense, politics in the Western World throughout the 20th century was shaped by the conflict between socialist and capitalist governmental policies.

Although socialist parties are common in Europe, the leading examples all currently embrace some free enterprise, individual property rights and certain other aspects of capitalism although leading European Socialists are very critical of America. In many European countries, socialism has been changing to [[Social democracy]].

==Quotes on Socialism==
Comparative quotes are given from the top [[Left-wing]] - [[Socialist]] - [[National Socialist]] (a.k.a. [[Nazi]]) - [[Marxist]] - [[Communist]] leaders and their critics in order to better understand the commonality of the end result of their similar philosophy taken to its fruition by the [[big government]] [[welfare state]]-[[nanny state]]-[[police state]] by [[leftist]] [[globalist]]-[[statist]]-socialist-communists. For more examples, see [[Nazism and socialism]]. From these quotes one can see little difference between Socialists, Nazis, Communists, Marxists. Communist regimes killed 60 million in the 20th century through [[genocide]], according to [[Le Monde]] and more than 100 million people according to ''The Black Book of Communism''.

'''Salvador Allende''' (1908-1973) was a Chilean medic, physician and politician who worked as an agent for the [[KGB]] since 1952.<ref name=KGB/> He ruled as the President of [[Chile]] from 1970 to 1973. A self-proclaimed "militant socialist", "marxist-leninist" and [[demagogue]], his overthrow and death are very controversial.

==History==

Salvador Allende was born July 26, 1908, in [[Valparaiso]]. Allende was a member of the [[Socialist Party of Chile]].

Allende, representing a coalition of [[Marxist]] parties,
came to power in 1970 after narrowly beating his closest opponent with 36.3 percent of the vote.<ref>[http://foia.state.gov/Reports/ChurchReport.asp]</ref>
Allende was outspoken in his intent to dramatically "transform" Chile according to socialist principles, which concerned moderate voters and politicians. The Chilean Congress voted to give Allende the presidency, in accordance with run-off rules in place at the time, but required Allende to sign a special statement promising that his reforms would always respect the constitution.

During his government, Allende instituted a plan called the "Chilean way to socialism" (''La vía chilena al socialismo'') or "socialism within pluralism" in attempt to address the unequal distribution of wealth in the Chilean economy, but which led to widespread disruption and social polarisation. Upon assuming power Allende expropriated private sector business, middle class and [[bourgeois]] property and began to implement an agrarian reforms and a program to nationalise vital industry. Allende posted some of his supporters to oversee these expropriations and nationalisation, including David Silberman <ref>http://www.jta.org/1976/02/06/archive/family-of-former-chilean-jewish-official-seeking-his-where-abouts</ref> (disappeared) who was assigned to oversee the "nationalization" of Chile's largest copper industry: Chuquicamata. The media wrote extensively of Allende's failures. Strikes and shutdowns caused massive inflation and unrest, and the conservative-controlled Chilean Congress sought to reject Allende's proposals whenever possible, causing considerable political gridlock.

US intelligence reports implicated Allende in the assassination of several opponents,<ref>http://nixontapeaudio.org/chile/517-004.pdf</ref> while KGB files smuggled out of Russia by [[Vasily Mitrokhin]] indicate that Allende received funds and support from the Soviet Union. <ref name=KGB>{{cite web|url=https://archive.org/stream/TheWorldWasGoingOurWayTheKGBAndTheBattleForTheTheThirdWorld/The+World+Was+Going+Our+Way_djvu.txt|title=The World Was Going Our Way: The KGB and the Battle for the the Third World|coauthors=CHRISTOPHER ANUREW and VASILI MlTROKlilN|quote=By far the most important of the KGB’s confidential contacts in South America was Salvador Allende Gossens (codenamed LEADER by the KGB),— whose election as President of Chile in 1970 was hailed by a Moscow commentator as ‘second only to the victory of the Cuban Revolution in the magnitude of its significance as a revolutionary blow to the imperialist system in Latin America’ (...) Allende had first attracted KGB attention in the early 1950s when, as leader of the Chilean Socialist Party (Partido Socialista), he had formed an alliance with the then banned Communist Party. In 1952 he stood with its support at the presidential election but won only 6 per
cent of the vote. Though there was as yet no KGB residency in Chile, a Line PR (political intelligence) officer, Svyatoslav Fyodorovich Kuznetsov (codenamed LEONID), probably operating under cover as a Novosti correspondent, made the first direct contact with Allende in the following year .— At the presidential election of 1958, standing as the candidate of a left-wing alliance, the Frente de Accion Popular (FRAP), Allende was beaten into second place by only 35,000 votes. What Allende ’s KGB file describes as ‘systematic contact’ with him began after the establishment in 1961 of a Soviet trade mission in Chile, which provided cover for a KGB presence. Allende is reported to have ‘stated his willingness to co-operate on a confidential basis and provide any necessary assistance, since he considered himself a friend of the Soviet Union. He willingly shared political information . . Though he became a KGB ‘confidential contact’, however, he was never classed as an agent. The KGB claimed some of the credit for Allende’s part in the campaign which led to the establishment of Soviet-Chilean diplomatic relations in
1964. — The new Soviet embassy in Santiago contained the first KGB legal residency on Chilean soil.— }}</ref>

Cusac, ''Sacred Sucide''].</ref>

Salvador was a friend of [[Ernesto Che Guevara]] who met in 1959 during the early times of the Communist Revolution in Cuba. Guevara dedicated his book "The guerilla war" to the Chilean marxist: "To Salvador Allende, who by other means tries to obtain the
same. Affectionately, Che"

Allende was formally condemned by Chile's parliament, the Chamber of Deputies, in its Resolution of August 22, 1973,<ref>https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Declaration_of_the_Breakdown_of_Chile%E2%80%99s_Democracy “Declaration of the Breakdown of Chile’s Democracy”</ref> which accused Allende of support of armed groups, torture, illegal arrests, muzzling the press, confiscating [[private property]], and not allowing people to leave the country. The text of the Resolution was published in the government newspaper ''LA NACION'' on August 25, 1973, and (English translation by Chilean economist [[José Piñera]])'' "...it is their (the Chilean military's) duty to put an immediate end to all situations herein referred to that breach the Constitution and the laws of the land..."''

Two weeks later, on September 11, 1973, the Chilean military began the removal of the Allende regime. With the Presidential palace surrounded, Allende committed suicide with a gold-engraved [[AK-47]] given to him as a gift by Castro rather than be arrested.

This Chamber of Deputies legislatively authorized removal is ubiquitously and fallaciously referred to as a "coup" by those pushing or under the sway of Marxist propaganda. The coup, proper, began only when Army Commander-in-Chief [[Augusto Pinochet]], victorious, refused to return governmental power to the civilian legislature, and to rule instead at the head of a [[junta]].

[[File:Karl Marx.jpg|thumb|250px|[[Karl Marx]], the creator of Marxism]]
{{See also|Socialism}}
'''Marxism''' is a [[pseudoscientific]] field of [[social science|social studies]] that began as a revolutionary movement developed by [[Karl Marx]], an alleged German scholar and his activist collaborator [[Friedrich Engels]]. Marx's approach is indicated by the opening line of the [[Communist Manifesto]] (1848): "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles." Marx believed that [[capitalism]], like previous socioeconomic systems, would produce internal tensions which would lead to its destruction. Just as capitalism supposedly replaced [[feudalism]], capitalism itself will be displaced by [[communism]], a classless society which would emerge after a transitional period in which the state would be nothing else but the revolutionary dictatorship of the [[proletariat]]. Marxists are said to await "the [[revolution]]" with a religious fervor reminiscent of [[Christian]]s awaiting the [[Rapture]].

Marx, when forming Marxism, also had in mind a particular event for his inspiration for the ideology: Long enamored with the [[French Revolution]] and its excesses, he advocated in a private letter to his co-author of the movement, [[Friedrich Engels]], as well as other sources such as a leftist newspaper, that they create "revolutionary terror" and that once they are at the helm, they would be obliged to reenact Robespierre's [[Reign of Terror]] from 1793, and that once their time comes, they won't excuse their terrorism, citing they will be pitiless and thus won't expect mercy from the monarchies, with the vengeance of the people being such that it would overtake even Robespierre's Reign of Terror in terms of blood spilt. He also fully acknowledged that they would be considered monsters as a result, but they wouldn't care less either way.

Innocent people are killed in violent Marxist revolutions; those that are not killed, if the revolution is successful, become [[enslave]]d.

== Ideology ==
[[File:AdornoHorkheimerHabermasbyJeremyJShapiro2.png|thumb|200px|Max Horkheimer, [[Theodor Adorno]], and Jürgen Habermas, leaders in the ''[[Frankfurt School]]''.]]
A Marxist society does not allow an individual to gain wealth; instead, that wealth supposedly belongs to the people as a collective. In a 'pure' Marxist society, the state is a democratic system that manages all aspects of production—essentially making the state the head of all industry. However, this was never realized due to power grabs by the eventual managers of the factories, as well as many practical limitations. Marx dreamed of a society where a man could be "A farmer in the morning, a laborer in the afternoon, and a philosopher in the evening"—essentially, a world without specialization and stark divisions of labor. Again, this tenet of his philosophy was never realized, mostly due to practical reasons.

Following the writings of Marx and Engels, along with other Marxists, Marxism stands in opposition to the institution of [[marriage]].<ref>Solway, David (August 23, 2018). [https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/karl-marx-hated-marriage-and-marxism-is-marriages-enemy Karl Marx hated marriage, and Marxism is marriage’s enemy]. ''LifeSiteNews'' (from the ''American Thinker''). Retrieved August 28, 2018.</ref>

Marxists also teach that historical forces are a cause of oppression, having been forced upon them without their consent, thus leading them toward the need for complete revolution to throw off these forces. "The basic thought running through the Manifesto — that economic production, and the structure of society of every historical epoch necessarily arising therefrom, constitute the foundation for the political and intellectual history of that epoch ...... this struggle, however, has now reached a stage where the exploited and oppressed class can no longer emancipate itself from the class which exploits and oppresses it, without at the same time forever freeing the whole of society from exploitation, oppression, class struggles"<ref>[https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/preface.htm Preface], 1883 edition</ref>

===Cultural Marxism===
[[File:Marcuse Angela Davis.png|right|300px|thumb|[[Herbert Marcuse]] with his student [[Angela Davis]].]]
:{{main|Cultural Marxism}}
Cultural Marxism is a branch of Marxist ideology formulated by the ''[[Frankfurt School]]'', which had its origins the early part of the twentieth century. Cultural Marxism comprises much of the foundation of [[political correctness]]. It emerged as a response of [[Europe]]an Marxist intellectuals disillusioned by the early political failures of conventional economic Marxist ideology.<ref>cf. External source: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIdBuK7_g3M Cultural Marxism: The Corruption of America] is a James Jaeger Film with ambition to show how ''a love affair with collectivist ideologies has lead to ever bigger government and the welfare-warfare state. Led by a Marxist splinter group called the "[[Frankfurt School]]" -- "[[the long march through the institutions]]" has infiltrated every corner of [[Western culture]] to corrupt traditional Christian values with "[[political correctness]]," another name for "cultural Marxism."''</ref> While Marx's ''Communist Manifesto'' focused on the alleged class struggle between bourgeois (owners of the means of production) and proletariat (workers), Marx did address culture, which he intimated would change after his economic vision was implemented. [[Patrick Buchanan]] argues that Cultural Marxism succeeded where Marx failed.<ref>[http://cnsnews.com/blog/grant-m-dahl/buchanan-cultural-marxism-has-succeeded-where-marx-and-lenin-failed Buchanan: ‘Cultural Marxism’ Has Succeeded Where Marx and Lenin Failed], [[CNSNews]]</ref>

The central idea of Cultural Marxism is to soften up and prepare Western Civilization for economic Marxism after a gradual, relentless, sustained attack on every institution of Western culture, including schools, literature, art, film, the Judeo-Christian religious tradition, the [[Destroying the family|family]], sexual mores, [[War on Sovereignty|national sovereignty]], etc.<ref>cf. The tendency of dictatorial ideologies to influence public institutions etc. so that these would serve their agendas is termed as [[Gleichschaltung]].</ref> The attacks are usually framed in Marxist terms as a class struggle between oppressors and oppressed; the members of the latter class allegedly include women, minorities, homosexuals, and adherents of non-Western religions such as Islam.

===Violent Marxism===

While the [[Occupy Wall Street]] and [[Obama riots]] had failed to bring about a violent Marxist overthrow of the existing social order and governmental system,<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2014/08/11/5-race-riots-in-obamas-post-racial-america/</ref> the same organizers and groups attempted again, this time in a nationwide coordinated effort during the [[2020 Leftist insurrection]].<ref>https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jun/3/antifa-planned-anti-government-insurgency-george-f/</ref> [[Black Lives Matter]] (BLM), following the model of the 1960s [[Black Panthers]], was anointed as the spearhead of revolution with [[Antifa]] playing the supporting role of the [[Weather Underground]] to bring about a [[national liberation movement]] from "capitalist oppression." BLM co-founder [[Patrisse Cullors]] assured The Real News Network when questioned about the ideological direction of the movement in a 2015 interview:

Conversely, whiteness represents all forms of privilege (economic, social, and legal) throughout their 2017 platform. BLM simply substitutes Marx’s [[class conflict]] between the [[proletariat]] and [[bourgeoisie]] for class conflict between [[black]]ness and [[white]]ness.<ref>https://thefederalist.com/2016/09/28/black-lives-matter-bringing-back-traditional-marxism/</ref>

The “racist” narrative was turbocharged with the concept of “[[White Privilege]],” the notion that whites—the dominant [[demographic]] group in capitalist America—are irretrievably racist, [[sexist]], [[homophobic]], [[xenophobic]], [[imperialist]]ic oppressors who exploit everyone. Whites are the only true [[evil]] in the world and should be exterminated. “Dr. Kamau Kambon, who taught Africana Studies 241 in the Spring 2005 semester at North Carolina State University, also said this needs to be done ‘because white people want to kill us.’”<ref>''[https://www.carolinajournal.com/news-article/activist-exterminate-white-people/ Activist: exterminate white people],'' by Jon Sanders, Carolina Journal, Oct. 21, 2015.</ref>

Hawk Newsome, chairman of Black Lives Matter of Greater New York (BLMNY) outlined a “pathway forward”: “We pattern ourselves after the [[Black Panthers]], after the [[Nation of Islam]], we believe that we need an [[army]] to defend ourselves."

===Critical Race Theory===
[[File:Tremmell.png|right|350px|thumb|Bernell Tremmell was murdered by Marxists in Milwaukee in July 2020 for his outspoken beliefs in freedom, justice, and racial equality.<ref>https://100percentfedup.com/prominent-black-trump-supporter-shot-to-death-in-milwaukee-hours-after-pro-trump-interview/</ref>]]
:{{See also|Critical race theory|White privilege}}
[[Derrick Bell]], [[Barack Obama]]’s favorite Harvard professor, devised Critical Race Theory, which exemplifies Lenin’s strategy as applied to race. According to Discover the Networks:
{{quotebox-float|Critical race theory contends that America is permanently racist to its core, and that consequently the nation’s legal structures are, by definition, racist and invalid … members of “oppressed” racial groups are entitled—in fact obligated—to determine for themselves which laws and traditions have merit and are worth observing. …}}
Bell’s theory is in turn an innovation of [[Critical Theory]], which was developed by Marxist thinkers of the [[Frankfurt School]] in Frankfurt, Germany, in 1923. The Institute’s left-wing scholars fled Hitler’s Germany in the 1930s, relocating to [[Columbia University]] in New York. Critical Theory, which discredits all aspects of Western society, we know today as [[political correctness]]. One of its most famous purveyors was the Frankfurt School’s [[Herbert Marcuse]], longtime associate of the [[Southern Poverty Law Center]]’s [[Julian Bond]]. Marcuse invented the concept of “partisan tolerance,” that is, [[tolerance]] for leftist ideas and [[intolerance]] of all others. The Southern Poverty Law Center applied Marcuse’s strategy in developing its “Hate Watch” list, and ''[[Rules for Radicals]]'' author [[Saul Alinsky]] used it in his own life’s work.

==Communism==
<center>{{cquote|<big>We must be ready to employ trickery, [[deceit]], law-breaking, withholding and concealing truth. … We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses [[hate]], revulsion, and scorn toward those who disagree with us.</big>|||[[Vladimir Lenin]]}}</center>
[[Communism]], as it emerged around 1918–20, was a late political manifestation of Marxist philosophy. Lenin in [[Russia]] and later [[Mao Tse-tung]] in [[China]] tailored Marx's ideas to fit their expedient political needs.

===Soviet experience===
According to the formal ideology of Marxism, [[private property|private ownership]] in industry is to be eliminated—control is to be wrested by the masses as a whole. The crucial revolutionary act, therefore, would presumably be the actual taking of control in industry by the workers themselves. In the course of the [[Bolshevik]] revolution, the workers ousted not only the owners but all the directing staff and supervisors. The workers thought, in their own way, that the revolution was designed to rid them of all rulers and exploiters. They recognized that the managers, as well as the owners, were among the rulers and exploiters both of the past and, above all, of the future. The workers set about running the factories themselves.

This state of affairs did not, however, last long. Two issues were at stake. In the first place, the separate factories and other instruments of production were not run very well under workers' control; and there were even greater difficulties in the coordination of the efforts of various factories. It was even harder for them to collaborate in the theory of [[economic planning]] effectively to direct entire branches of industry. Workers' control would also mean the elimination of all privilege, or a 'classless society". The drive for class power needed to get rid of workers' control, and found justification in the inefficiency of workers' control.

Hence workers' control was replaced by [[Lenin]], [[Trotsky]], and [[Stalin]] by the ''de facto'' managerial control in a new kind of state. The technical direction of factory operations was turned over to "specialists", or managers, with the Factory Committees remaining in existence and still exercising substantial control through a [[veto]] power over the managers and jurisdiction over labor conditions. Meanwhile, bureaus and commissions and individuals appointed from above by the Soviet regime were beginning to take over the job of coordinating the efforts of various factories and branches of industry. The powers of the managers and technicians increased at the expense of "workers' control" and the Factory Committees. The Factory Committee lost their veto powers. Their prerogative, labor conditions, became more and more narrowly interpreted. The Committee composition was changed to include one state representative, one managerial representative, and one man nominally representing the workers. Finally, even these Committees lost all their real power and remained as mere formalities, to be dropped altogether in during the [[Great Purge]] of 1938.

===Nomenklatura===
The freedom and end of privilege, which the oppressed thought the revolution was to bring, was giving way to a new form of class rule by the [[nomenklatura]]. At each decisive step, the "workers' socialist state" under Lenin and Stalin, backed not the workers but the managers. A wide campaign of "education" was undertaken to show the people why "workers' rule" meant, in practice, managers' rule. Where necessary, the education by the word was supplemented with education by [[firing squad]], [[concentration camp]] or [[slavery|forced labor]] battalion.

Lenin and Trotsky, both, in the early years of the revolution, wrote pamphlets and speeches arguing the case of the specialists, the technicians, the managers. Lenin, in his forceful way, used to declare that the manager had to be a dictator in the factory. "Workers' democracy" in the state, Lenin said in effect, was to be founded upon a managerial dictatorship in the factory.

Lenin, as the head of the state, helped to smash workers' popular, control over those instruments and to substitute for it control by the managers. And, of course, the managers of individual plants became subordinate to the big managers, to the boards and bureaus directing entire sectors of industry and governing industry as a whole. The managers under the new state included many who had been managers under the old "capitalist rule". Lenin and Trotsky poured scorn on "infantile leftists" <ref>[http://www.marx2mao.com/Lenin/LWC20.html V. I. Lenin, ''"Left-Wing" Communism, An Infantile Disorder''] (1920) V. I. Lenin, Selected Works, English edition, Foreign Languages Publishing House, Moscow, 1952, Vol. II, Part 2.</ref> who were against making use of the "services" of the "bourgeois specialists.". Favorable terms were given to foreign "bourgeois specialists" who were willing to come to work under the new regime.<ref>James Burnham, ''The Managerial Revolution'', Indiana University Press, Bloomingham 1966.</ref>

The control, and the social rule which goes with it, when it leaves the hands of the capitalists, goes not to the workers, the people, but to the managers, the new ruling class. A parallel of the Russian process can be observed with particular clarity in connection with the events in [[Loyalist]] territories during the [[Spanish Civil War]], above all in Catalonia. There, just as in Russia, the workers and peasants began taking over direct control of the factories and railroads and firms. There too, not at once, but during the course of the first two years of the Civil War, the ''de facto'' power slipped from the workers' hands, sometimes voluntarily given up at the persuasion of a political party, sometimes smashed by arms and prison. It was not the troops of [[Franco]] who took control away from the people of Catalonia; they had lost control well before Franco's army conquered.

==Quotes on Marxism==
Comparative quotes are given from the top [[Left-wing]] - [[Socialist]] - [[National Socialist]] (a.k.a. [[Nazi]]) - [[Marxist]] - [[Communist]] leaders and their critics in order to better understand the commonality of the end result of their philosophy taken to its fruition by the [[Big government]] [[Welfare state]]-[[Nanny state]]-[[Police state]] by [[leftist]] [[Globalist]]-[[Statist]]-Socialist-Communists. From these quotes one can see little difference between Socialists, Nazis, Communists.
Communist regimes killed 60 million in the 20th century through [[genocide]], according to [[Le Monde]] and more than 100 million people according to ''The Black Book of Communism''.

A core tenet of the Democratic party is opposition to the principle of "one person, one vote", be it the original insistence on a [[Three-Fifths Compromise|3/5's rule]] for minorities among its early promulgators or fractional vote rigging by in the [[2020 Presidential election]].<ref>[https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/online-vulnerable-experts-find-nearly-three-dozen-u-s-voting-n1112436 'Online and vulnerable': Experts find nearly three dozen U.S. voting systems connected to internet], By Kevin Monahan, Cynthia McFadden and Didi Martinez, [[NBC News]], JAN. 10, 2020.</ref> In 2020, Democrats had a black man, a black woman, Hispanic-American, a [[Samoa]]n, a fake [[Native American]], the first openly [[gay]] candidate, a male socialist and a female socialist running for president, and settled on an a mentally incompetent old white guy to represent their party. An August 2021 poll of registered Democrats showed 59% supported [[communism]].<ref>https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/majority-registered-democratic-voters-prefer-socialism-to-capitalism-fox-news-poll</ref> Communism has murdered 100 million people in the past 100 years.<ref>https://www.hudson.org/research/13994-100-years-of-communism-and-100-million-dead</ref>

In late 2021, a small group of traditional Democrats, some of whom still believed in [[God]], [[Western civilization]], [[America]], legal regulated immigration, capitalism, a two-party system and other traditional American values attempted to separate themselves from the [[insanity]] and [[crime|criminality]] gripping the Democratic party and its leadership by organizing themselves under the rebranded name of "Normal Democrats."<ref>https://news.yahoo.com/moderate-democrats-rebrand-normal-012159375.html</ref>

==117th Congress==
{{cquote|When people who spent four years role-playing as "the Resistance" against a "stolen election" suddenly start telling us dissent and resistance are treason that will be punished without mercy, we know exactly what's going on. It's a grim story repeated throughout human history..|||John Hayward, ''[[Breitbart News]]''<ref>https://www.bookwormroom.com/2021/07/28/john-hayward-says-what-needs-to-be-said-about-the-jan-6-show-trial/</ref>}}
:{{See also|117th United States Congress}}
As the 117th Congress was sworn in, one thing was certain and obvious to the American people: the Democratic party no longer had any regard or respect for [[democracy]] and the [[human rights]] of other people. The Democratic party organization, from poll workers, to members of the [[civil service system]], to elected officials, had rejected the fundamental tenets of a [[two-party system]] and embraced full-fledged [[single party control|single party]] [[communism]] and [[totalitarianism]], including rigged elections, [[censorship]], lack of [[due process]] rights, a rejection of the right of free association, a perverted [[law enforcement]] and [[judicial]] system, wholesale domestic spying, a [[globalism|globalized]] and [[collectivist]] [[planned economy]], a rejection of [[God]] and [[religion]], and an attack on the rights of armed citizens to defend themselves.

Political scientist LaShonda Brenson, who tracks diversity on Capitol Hill, said only 14 percent of high-ranking positions in House members’ offices were held by people of color in 2018. According to ''Roll Call'' magazine, Brenson said there are reasons to hope. "This year’s crop of new lawmakers, who are mostly Republicans, have so far filled 23 percent of their top staff positions with people of color."<ref>https://www.rollcall.com/2021/02/25/where-am-i-black-staffers-describe-capitol-hill/</ref>

Democrats shot down a bill to prohibit U.S. corporations from using [[forced labor|slave labor]] in the [[Peoples Republic of China]].<ref>https://thefederalist.com/2021/06/18/217-house-democrats-torpedo-bill-prohibiting-corporate-cooperation-with-chinese-slave-labor/</ref> Apple and [[Nike Inc]] increased their donations to Democrats by more than 400% to fight the Republican introduced Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act barring imports of products from Chinese slave labor.<ref>https://thefederalist.com/2020/11/30/apple-nike-coca-cola-lobby-to-preserve-slavery-of-uighurs-by-communist-china/</ref> Rep.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the largest lobbying group in the United States, said that the socialist Democrat Party 2022 budget reconciliation bill “poses an existential threat to US economy”.<ref>https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/democrats-reconciliation-bill-threaten-us-economy-chamber-of-commerce</ref>

Democrat supreme leader Joe Biden has been fully compromised by the Chinese communist government.<ref>https://thefederalist.com/2020/10/27/biden-family-whistleblower-joe-biden-is-compromised-by-communist-china/</ref>

===Pro-inflation===
The party is pro-inflation and advocates printing money, massive government spending, and adding to the national debt as a means to prosperity. Additionally, the party advocates regulation to discourage production, job creation, and distribution of goods and services. The party advocates taxation and seizure of wealth as a means to increase the livelihood and wellbeing of bureaucrats while disenfranchising the poor and increasing the number of homeless and destitute.

[[Inflation]] destroys hope, economic opportunity, and the physical and spiritual wellbeing of people in poverty more than any other group.

===Racist vaccine mandate===
African Americans were the group with the highest number of unvaccinated people against the [[CCP virus]].<ref>https://www.kff.org/coronavirus-covid-19/issue-brief/latest-data-on-covid-19-vaccinations-by-race-ethnicity/</ref> In September 2021 Joe Biden issued a [[Biden's vaccine mandate|covid vaccine mandate]] which would require anyone refusing the vaccine to be fired from their job.<ref>https://legalinsurrection.com/2021/09/major-companies-demand-biden-clarify-covid-vaccine-mandate/</ref> Black Lives Matter called the vaccine mandate racist.<ref>https://www.dailywire.com/news/new-york-blm-leader-promises-national-uprising-over-racist-vaccine-mandates-similar</ref> Blacks historically have been targeted by Democrat administrations for medical experiments.<ref>https://bpr.berkeley.edu/2020/11/04/americas-forgotten-history-of-forced-sterilization/</ref>

===Impeachment sham 2.0===

House Democrats in the 117th Congress tampered with evidence to bring a second sham impeachment charge against President Donald Trump.<ref>https://ifapray.org/blog/tampering-with-evidence-is-a-crime-even-in-the-senate/</ref><ref>https://clarion.causeaction.com/2021/02/11/democrats-sham-impeachment-evidence-contains-footage-by-communist-antifa-agitator-john-earle-sullivan/</ref> Chief Justice [[John Roberts]] refused to preside over what was obviously an illegal and unconstitutional abuse of power.<ref>https://www.wjr.com/news/cancel-the-unconstitutional-show-trial-against-president-trump/</ref> Democrats refused to allow the [[subpoena]] of Speaker Pelosi to testify as a witness under oath in the impeachment trial about her role in the pre-planned attack on the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021.<ref>https://thenationalpulse.com/breaking/ex-capitol-police-chief-says-pelosi-mcconnells-sergeants-at-arms-refused-security-measures-while-new-timeline-proves-trump-incitement-claims-bogus/</ref>

[[New Jersey]] Rep. [[Jeff Van Drew]] quit the party rather than vote in its second bogus impeachment sham. After voting to object to electoral certification, a [[mainstream media]] journalist with the ''Ocean City Sentinel'' left a voice mail on Van Drew's home phone:
{{quotebox-float|“As a member of the New Jersey Press Association, I will do everything in my power to ensure that you are deposed, if not dead. Anything that I can do to basically get you out of office, I will do. You are a traitor, Jeff Van Drew, and you deserve the fate of all traitors."<ref>https://therightscoop.com/wow-lib-member-of-press-leaves-death-threat-for-rep-who-switched-from-d-to-r-oh-and-published-threats-as-opeds/</ref>}}
The [[ACLU]] argued that the Democrats' new Domestic Terrorism bill to target their enemies will harm minority communities.<ref>https://www.bizpacreview.com/2021/02/24/new-domestic-terror-laws-will-harm-minority-communities-aclu-says-1034122/</ref> H.R. 1 and S. 1 effectively ended voter registration.<ref>https://www.dickmorris.com/hr1-effectively-ends-voter-registration-lunch-alert/</ref> That, coupled with the executive order raising the migrant refugee ceiling by 730% in the midst of the COVID pandemic effectively put an end to free and fair elections.<ref>https://twitter.com/FAIRImmigration/status/1363126347573379073</ref>

====Racist origins of sham impeachment====
The only precedent for the second [[impeachment]] of [[President Donald J. Trump]] was that of William W. Belknap, President [[Ulysses S. Grant]]’s Secretary of War during [[Reconstruction]], who was tried and acquitted by the [[U.S. Senate]] after resigning from office. An investigation into the War Department was launched. Under Belknap the [[U.S. Army]] was used in combination with the [[Justice Department]] to prosecute the [[Ku Klux Klan]], a policy opposed by most [[Democrat]]s.<ref>https://brewminate.com/the-life-of-william-w-belknap-impeached-post-resignation-in-1876/</ref> Senate Democrat Majority leader [[Chuck Schumer]] said, “The Senate convened a trial, and voted, as a chamber, that Mr. Belknap could be tried ‘for acts done as Secretary of War, notwithstanding his resignation of said office.’ The language is crystal clear, without any ambiguity,” quoting a resolution by Senator [[Allen G. Thurman]], who opposed President [[Abraham Lincoln]]’s [[Emancipation Proclamation]] and campaigned against allowing black people to vote.<ref>[https://www.jewishpress.com/blogs/sultan-knish/the-racist-origins-of-president-trumps-impeachment/2021/02/22/ The Racist Origins of President Trump’s Impeachment], By Daniel Greenfield - 10 Adar 5781 – February 22, 2021. www.jewishpress.com</ref>

===DCCC===
According to ''[[Breitbart News]]:''
{{quotebox-float|The [[Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee]] (DCCC) tapped Dyjuan Tatro, the former “triggerman” for Albany’s Original Gangsta Killers, or OGK, street gang to help lead efforts in protecting House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) slim majority in the House.

The DCCC, led by chairman [[Sean Patrick Maloney]] (D-NY), hired Tatro, a former New York [[gangbanger|gang member]], to serve as a senior adviser for “diversity and inclusion.” He served time for “shooting two rival gang members in 2006” and was also convicted in 2011, serving six years for racketeering [[conspiracy]], according to the ''[[New York Post]]''.

According to the outlet, Tatro “confessed to the shootings, and to a ‘razor slashing’ of another victim in 2002 as well as to dealing drugs,” making around $12,000 per month doing so.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/02/15/democrats-hire-ex-gang-member-to-lead-efforts-in-protecting-slim-house-majority</ref>}}
===Nursing home extermination campaign===
Not only were [[covid lockdown]]s an abuse of power, they also failed to protect the elderly.<ref>https://youtu.be/Wab_E1FTHJM</ref>

Gov. [[Andrew Cuomo]] of New York mandated that longterm nursing home facilities accept Covid 19-positive patients. Despite the [[scientific]] evidence, Cuomo issued the decree anyway.<ref>https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Cuomo-defends-nursing-home-policies-as-long-term-15284326.php</ref> The virus spread like wildfire among the elderly, mostly [[Babyboomer]]s, giving New York the highest death toll from the [[CCP virus]].<ref>https://apnews.com/4042f05613ee4259b7a44d4466a0a02a</ref> New York's death toll accounts for 30% of the U.S. fatality rate. ''Frontpage Mag'' reported:
{{Quotebox-float|Cuomo's Department of Health had issued an order that, "no resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the NH solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19" and also prohibited requiring testing of returning patients. Sending hospitalized patients with coronavirus to the same mismanaged nursing homes was a death sentence for countless seniors in those facilities.<ref>https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/04/1-5-coronavirus-deaths-could-have-been-prevented-daniel-greenfield/</ref>}}
The Cuomo administration then deliberately tried to coverup the extent of the carnage by undercounting deaths.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2020/05/15/new-york-coronavirus-reporting-nursing-home-deaths-undercounting/</ref>

Cuomo's order sent 6,400 COVID-19 positive patients into nursing homes - the highest risk group.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2020/07/07/gov-cuomos-order-6000-coronavirus-patients-nursing-homes/</ref> More than 5,800 died. According to him, the deaths were the fault of [[Donald Trump]].<ref>[https://townhall.com/tipsheet/cortneyobrien/2020/10/20/cuomo-i-hold-trump-responsible-for-every-new-york-covid-death-n2578429 Cuomo: I Hold Trump Responsible for Every New York COVID Death]</ref>

In January 2021, the New York Attorney General's office reported that the Cuomo administration had covered up the number of nursing home murders and under-reported the figure by 50%.<ref>https://mindmatters.ai/2020/11/why-did-new-york-issue-a-policy-that-killed-elderly-patients/</ref> Rep. [[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]] called for an investigation into Gov. Cuomo's [[human rights]] abuses.<ref>https://twitter.com/J__Velasquez/status/1362836454116884482</ref>

In May 2020, Gov. [[Gretchen Whitmer]] of Michigan directed a dangerous policy in ordering seniors, or anyone else, who test positive for [[COVID-19]] to be transported to nursing homes that house healthy seniors,<ref>[https://townhall.com/tipsheet/cortneyobrien/2020/05/12/michigan-dem-lawmaker-sounds-off-on-whitmers-nursing-home-order-n2568678 Michigan Dem Lawmaker Sounds Off on Whitmer's Nursing Home Order]</ref> a measure criticized by even a [[Democrat]] state representative. A few days later, [[Republican]] state senator Peter J.

It was reported on June 15, 2020, that one-third of all [[coronavirus]]-related deaths in Michigan were in nursing homes.<ref>Two references:

The Macomb county prosecutor advised survivors who lost loved ones to COVID as residents or staff inside nursing homes should collect the vital information about the circumstances of their death and take that to local police and make a complaint as a wrongful death. [[Criminal]] charges could be filed against the Democrat fascist governor over putting COVID patients inside nursing homes used as hubs during the pandemic.<ref>https://www.wxyz.com/news/coronavirus/macomb-county-prosecutor-says-criminal-charges-possible-against-governor-whitmer-over-nursing-home-deaths</ref>

Whitmer was appointed DNC vice chair in 2021.

As the secretary of the Pennsylvania Health Department during the CCP pandemic, Biden [[HHS]] assistant secretary [[Richard "Rachel" Levine]] ordered nursing homes that house healthy seniors to take in COVID-19 positive patients, which resulted in thousands of needless deaths.<ref>Multiple references:

Marketwatch wrote: “In a stunning rout, the [[Taliban]] seized nearly all of Afghanistan in just over a week, despite the billions of dollars spent by the U.S. and [[NATO]] over nearly 20 years to build up Afghan security forces. Just days earlier, an American military assessment estimated that the capital would not come under insurgent pressure for a month.”<ref>https://www.marketwatch.com/story/afghan-president-flees-the-country-as-taliban-move-on-kabul-01629048671?mod=home-page&mod=article_inline</ref>

The Taliban beat her to death.<ref>https://www.cnn.com/2021/08/17/asia/afghanistan-women-taliban-intl-hnk-dst/index.html</ref> Less than a month later, White House chief propagandists [[Jen Psaki]] said "The Taliban has to make an assessment about what they want their role to be in the international community."

The Taliban went door-to-door taking women and children. The people must mark their house with an “X” if they have a girl over 12 years old, so that the Taliban can take them. If they find a young girl and the house was not marked they will execute the entire family.

A Gold Star mother who lost her son in Biden's botched evacuation issued a statement:
{{quotebox-float|"My son was one of the marines that died yesterday. He was 20 years and six months old, getting ready to come home to be with his wife to watch the birth of his son.

And that feckless, dementia ridden piece of crap, Biden, just sent my son to die.

I woke up at 4’o’clock this morning to US Marines at my door telling me my son was dead.

I never thought in 1 million years that he would die for nothing, for nothing because a feckless, dementia-ridden piece of crap who decided he wanted a photo-op on [[9/11 attacks|Sept. 11]] — that’s what kills me. I wanted my son to represent our country, to fight for my country. But I never thought that a feckless piece of crap would send him to his death, and smirk on television while he’s talking about people dying with his nasty smirk.

So, to have right on before me, to have to listen to that piece of crap Biden talk about diplomatic crap with Taliban terrorists who just freaking blew up my son and no, nothing, to not say anything about …"Oh my God I’m so sorry for failing.”

My son is gone, and I just want all you [[2020 Democrat election fraud|Democrats who cheated in the election]], or who voted for him legitimately, to know you just killed my son with a dementia ridden piece of crap who doesn’t even know he’s in the White House, who still thinks he’s a senator.<ref>https://therightscoop.com/listen-furious-mother-of-marine-killed-in-kabul-attack-says-dementia-ridden-biden-directly-to-blame/</ref>}}

===Big Tech anti-trust===
In the weeks before the House Judiciary Committee voted on the antitrust legislation — aimed at [[Apple, Inc.]], [[Amazon.com]], and Alphabet’s [[Google]] — that was meant to limit the way companies organize and offer their products, Speaker Pelosi's husband who handles the family's finances exercised call options that netted the Pelosi's $5.3 million.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/07/08/report-pelosis-husband-secured-5-3-million-from-alphabet-options/#</ref>

===Transgenderism===
The so-called [[Equality Act]] is a bill that would eliminate the legal recognition of male and female sex, make it more difficult to bring charges of [[sexual harassment]] in the workplace, cater to gender ideology, and designate protection for the unborn as “pregnancy” discrimination. The legislation, which would rewrite civil rights law to include “sexual orientation and [[gender identity]]” as protected classes, would likely upend the national culture as Americans have known it. Ryan Anderson, president of Ethics & Public Policy Center (EPPC) said, “The so-called Equality Act isn’t drafted as a shield to protect vulnerable minorities from unjust discrimination, but as a sword to persecute those who do not embrace new sexual and gender ideologies.”<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/02/19/jjoe-bidens-war-on-women-equality-act-to-end-legal-recognition-of-biological-sex/</ref>

A Harvard/Harris poll produced in the summer of 2021 revealed that 80% of Americans believe that illegal immigration is a serious problem. 68% indicated they believed Biden was encouraging illegal immigration. 55% stated they believed President Trump’s immigration policies should have remained intact. Pollster Mark Penn wrote:

55% believed that Biden’s border policies are “increasing the flow of drugs,” into the country. 61% believed the flood of unaccompanied children surging at the southern border was the fault of the Biden administration.<ref>https://redstate.com/jeffc/2021/06/28/left-leaning-study-reveals-some-catastrophic-news-for-democrats-n403765</ref>

Many [[Leftist]]s ran on a platform of abolishing the nation's [[Immigration and Customs Enforcement|imigration enforcement]] authority and moving toward a policy of unrestricted immigration and [[open borders]].

By October 21, 2018, reports estimated the number of economic migrants at between 7,200 and 10,000. The numbers seemingly doubled and tripled upon entering Mexico.

====Biden border crisis====

:{{See also|Cloward and Piven Strategy|Biden border crisis}}
On Biden's second day occupying the White House he issued a ''diktat'' which has been described as the most extreme directive in the history of modern [[law enforcement]]. Acting Secretary David Pekoske issued a memorandum on the evening of January 20, 2021 putting into place a [[deportation]] moratorium. There were narrow exceptions for terrorists and spies and none for [[criminal]]s and criminal suspects. It is estimated that about 12,000 criminal illegal aliens per month will not be deported from the United States throughout the existence of the Biden/Harris regime.<ref>https://www.newswars.com/over-12000-criminal-illegals-will-be-freed-monthly-former-trump-official-warns/</ref> These illegals can vote unchallenged under the Democrats "[[For the People Act]]".

The junta further scrapped the “public charge” rule—a government policy that sought to limit admissions of immigrants likely to become reliant on government benefits.<ref>https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/biden-administration-ditches-trump-plan-limit-immigration-financially-dependent-n1260239</ref> People from [[Yemen]], [[Iran]] and [[Sri Lanka]] were crossing the border, including people on the terrorist watch list.<ref>https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/mar/15/john-katko-terror-suspects-are-part-border-surge/</ref>

Democrat Rep.

Harris never consulted with Cuellar, Texas governor [[Greg Abbott]], or other local people.

====Human trafficing====
The Biden junta’s reversal of Trump-era border policies gave Mexican cartels an enormous opportunity to exploit immigrants for financial gain. This criminal and inhumane system is a direct consequence of Biden’s open border policies and willful neglect of border security. Chris Farrell, director of investigations and research at [[Judicial Watch]], explained how the cartels’ control of the Mexican border is driven by profit. “When Americans hear about the humanitarian crisis at the border,” said Farrell, “they should remember that it is fueled by a sophisticated criminal enterprise that is subsidized by the Biden administration’s failure to secure our border.” An Arizona rancher explained “Nobody comes through that border illegally without their [the cartels] authorization.” Dan Cantu, a retired Border Patrol agent, said no one “freelances”—or crosses into the U.S. from the Mexican border without cartel permission. In most cases, those who try are instantly killed. “They call those [who cross on their own] ‘chapulines’ … which means grasshoppers in Spanish. It’s common knowledge that the minute they try to freelance—as soon as they do—smugglers and recruiters [for the cartels] will notice … [and] they’ll flat out kill them.” They patrol ridge lines and mountains in search of “chapulines” walking on their own. If found, the chapulin is approached by a scout and asked for a code. Those who don’t know the code are often tied to a tree and beaten, raped, or killed by cartel operatives. “The chapulines experience all kinds of torture,” Cantu emphasized, “because [the cartels] have got to send a message … there is a price for attempting to traverse the border yourself.”<ref>https://www.dailysignal.com/2021/06/15/no-one-comes-through-the-border-illegally-without-the-cartels-authorization-how-bidens-policies-feed-a-criminal-monopoly/</ref>

According to a veteran Department of Homeland Security law enforcement officer, “The cartel makes more money on people than they do on dope.” The Mexican cartels have a valuation greater than [[Walmart]].<ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/06/24/do-mexican-drug-cartels-make-billion-year/</ref>

According to [[CBS News]], children were held in overcrowded conditions, and some were having to sleep on the floor and were going hungry. One immigration lawyer representing the children said there were kids who have only showered once in seven days and weren’t allowed to shower more often. The children were not allowed outdoors and complained of not seeing the sun in days. The Donna complex which is supposed to hold only 250 people held 1,800, or 729% of its pandemic era capacity. The migrants were not able to practice any social distancing because of the massive number of people.<ref>https://www.cbsnews.com/news/migrant-children-detained-in-overcrowded-conditions/</ref> The ''New York Post'' wrote in an editorial, "While we feel Trump was wrongly vilified for these facilities, Biden deserves every knock of hypocrisy leveled against him."<ref>https://nypost.com/2021/02/24/bidens-kids-in-cages-prove-his-hypocrisy-on-immigration/</ref> ''[[Time magazine]]'' pleaded for the Dear Leader to end locking babies in cages.<ref>https://time.com/5945307/biden-end-detention-migrant-children/</ref>

''[[The Washington Post]]'' reported “[y]oung people are waiting in cramped, austere holding cells with concrete floors and benches.

Reporters and photographers were not been allowed inside the facilities where thousands of unaccompanied children are being kept in similar to jail-like conditions."<ref> https://youtu.be/FrUwXhmgLlM</ref>

When negative publicity arose, the Biden team then emptied the cages and forced children to sleep in buses overnight, according to [[NBC News]].<ref>https://twitchy.com/brettt-3136/2021/05/13/joe-bidens-america-migrant-children-stuck-overnight-on-parked-buses-for-consecutive-days-and-nights/</ref>

====Narcotics trafficing====
Prior to the junta [[open borders|opening the border]] [[bi-partisan]] experts estimated the money made on drug trafficking by the Mexican Drug Cartels at around $500 billion, or one half-trillion dollars per year. Sen. [[Sonny Purdue]] said in 2019: “At half a trillion dollars — $500 billion — that makes the cartel business and the drug traffic just in Mexico alone coming across to the United States bigger than [[Walmart]], to put it in perspective. So this is larger than our largest companies.” Democrat Sen. [[Dianne Feinstein]] quoted the same figure testifying, “The illicit drug trade is a business, valued at anywhere between $426 [billion] and $652 billion…”.<ref>https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/has-joe-biden-sold-out-america-to-the-mexican-drug-cartels/</ref>

Lightfoot complained bitterly about the "whiteness and maleness" of Chicago's [[liberal media]] which had only aided in her election.<ref>https://www.bizpacreview.com/2021/05/20/lightfoot-defends-her-bigotry-slams-overwhelming-whiteness-and-maleness-of-chicago-media-outlets-1076689/</ref> ''[[Chicago Tribune]]'' reporter Gregory Pratt, a [[Latino]] was granted an interview and asked the mayor’s office to lift its exclusion others.

Constitutional law professor [[Jonathan Turley]] weighed in: "The question is whether a race-based criteria for reporters is not just actionable but whether the media is prepared to sue Lightfoot for discriminatory policies....One of the most significant aspects of this controversy is that Lightfoot ordered staff to enforce the race-based criteria. That means that the policy was carried out with city staff and resources....The Illinois Human Rights Law states that unlawful [[discrimination]]
{{quotebox-float|“means discrimination against a person because of his or her actual or perceived: race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, age, sex, marital status, order of protection status, disability, military status, sexual orientation, pregnancy, or unfavorable discharge from military service as those terms are defined in this Section.”<ref>https://jonathanturley.org/2021/05/19/mayor-lightfoot-facing-media-outcry-over-race-based-access-policy/</ref>}}
Amidst a firestorm of outrage Lightfoot attempted to defend her racist and anti-male policies: “As a woman of color, as a [[lesbian]], it’s important to me that [[diversity]] is put front and center.”<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/05/mayor-lightfoot-defends-racist-interview-policy-woman-color-lesbian-important-diversity-put-front-center-video/</ref> Lightfoot argued that racism and discrimination will make "the [[collective]] us do better."<ref>https://therightscoop.com/bigoted-lori-lightfoot-says-excluding-whites-will-make-us-better-tucker-says-equity-is-racism-guess-who-press-is-mad-at/</ref>

The Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) and [[Judicial Watch]] filed suit, alleging the Chicago mayors stated racist policy violated DNCF reporter Thomas Caenacci's [[First Amendment]] and [[Fourteenth Amendment]] rights:
{{quotebox-float|"The lawsuit, filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, alleges that Lightfoot’s denial violates the DCNF and Catenacci’s First Amendment rights and Catenacci’s right to equal protection under the Fourteenth Amendment.

“It’s absurd that an elected official believes she can discriminate on the basis of race,” DCNF Editor-in-Chief Ethan Barton said. “Mayor Lightfoot’s decision is clearly blocking press freedom through racial discrimination.”}}
Catenacci requested an interview with Lightfoot through her office on May 20 to talk about [[coronavirus]]-related issues like Chicago's lagging vaccination rate, how she'd rate her handling of the [[pandemic]] in comparison to other cities, etc. He followed up on May 21 and May 24 and did not receive a response. “By failing to respond in a timely manner, Mayor Lightfoot has denied Plaintiff Catenacci’s request,” the complaint alleges.

Further, the DCNF alleged “on information and belief” that Lightfoot was aware that Catenacci is white, and that because of that and her newly announced policy of interviewing only “journalists of color,” he was being denied the opportunity to sit down and interview her in his [[legal capacity|capacity]] as a [[journalist]].<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2021/05/27/daily-caller-news-foundation-lori-lightfoot-lawsuit/</ref>

Virtually all political positions, foreign and domestic, have been determined by how it redounds to the expansion of the civil service workforce, state and federal, and to the benefit of the existing civil service. This has been historically true since passage of the Civil Service Act in 1882, and was the basis of the Jacksonian [[spoils system]] and founding of the party. Democrat candidates campaign on, and Democrats voters vote for, government jobs and goodies and who will be called upon to hand out money from the public treasury. All policy discussion and decisions regarding national security, foreign policy, and domestic programs are based upon this basic tenet of controlling and expanding the power of the civil service workforce.

In Democrat-run cities crime has spiraled out control.<ref>https://thenationalpulse.com/news/democrat-run-cities-with-soros-backed-das-are-watching-crime-spiral-out-control/</ref> At least 16 major U.S. cities broke their annual homicide records in 2021, [[Philadelphia]], St. Paul, [[Portland]], Indianapolis, Tucson, [[Louisville]], Toledo, Baton Rouge, Austin, Columbus, Rochester, Albuquerque, [[Atlanta]], Jackson, Macon and New Haven.<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/us/cities-record-homicides-2021</ref><ref>https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/its-like-the-purge-murder-records-are-being-shattered-all-over-america-and-next-year-could-be-even-worse/</ref> Houston, Oakland, Greensboro and Memphis are also neared record homicide highs in 2021.

New York City Council Member Antonio Reynoso (D) introduced a bill to abolish the New York Police Department’s (NYPD) gang database as gang crime reached a new high throughout the city. By October 2021, more than 100 children under 18 years old were involved in street-gang related shootings. Almost all of the children killed in gang-related violence in New York City are minorities, predominantly black. A police source told the ''New York Post'' that, “the gangs are eating these kids alive.”

In December 2020 Los Angeles District Attorney (LADA) George Gascon (D) entered office and released his plans to significantly downsize and dissolve LA County’s hardcore gangs unit. When entering office, Gascon immediately prevented his prosecutors from seeking the death penalty or issuing a cash bail for non-violent criminals. Steve Cooley, the former LADA, referred to Gascon as a “functional outlaw… basically, George Gascon is a George Soros puppet, and that is dangerous.” When Gascon’s plans coupled with two California Propositions (47 & 57) and Assembly Bill 109, the limited policing on gangs led to an immediate explosion in gang activity from prematurely-released violent gang-affiliated felons.

In 2019, Los Angeles was statistically one of the safest cities in the United States. Homicides dropped to 5 per 100,000 people, and violent crime was at 560 per 100,000. Less than a year into his tenure as District Attorney, violent crime, attacks and robberies of citizens, animal cruelty, and heightened rates of human trafficking throughout Southern California have risen. Between 2019 and 2021, homicide rose 116 percent, aggravated assault increased 19.9 percent, vehicular theft rose 24 percent, with a 224 percent increase in individuals being shot. By February 2021, gang-related homicides were up 266.7 percent and gang-related shootings increased 133.3 percent. Attacks on police officers also rose 300 percent in the first 18 days of January 2021 when compared to the same time period in 2020.

The pandemic emptied parts of San Francisco and highlighted some of its drawbacks: human and dog feces smeared across sidewalks, home and vehicle break-ins, overflowing trash cans, and a laissez-faire approach by officials to brazen drug dealing. Parents despaired as public schools stayed closed for most of 2021 as nearby districts welcomed children back to the classroom. Drug dealers carry translucent bags filled with crystal-like rocks or stand outside the public library’s main branch, flashing wads of cash while peddling heroin and methamphetamine. The number of people that died from drug overdoses in San Francisco in 2021 was nearly three times as high as the number that died from COVID.

Often, the worst criminals dress in suits and walk the halls of power. For example, a CNN producer was charged with luring a mother and her nine-year-old daughter to a rental home in Vermont for ‘sexual subservience’ training also told someone else he’d ‘trained’ girls as young as seven. John Griffin, a producer on CNN’s New Day and worked for [[Chris Cuomo]], was charged by federal prosecutors in Vermont who say he paid for sex with underage girls, including one whose mother he convinced into letting her visit him.

314 police officers were shot in 2021. Meanwhile, the mainstream media and leftist groups continue to relentlessly demonize the police, driving good people out of the profession in record numbers. A workforce survey released in June 2021 by the Police Executive Research Forum found the retirement rate in police departments nationwide jumped 45% over 2020 and 2021. And another 18% of officers resigned, the survey found, a development which coincided with nationwide social justice protests and calls to defund the police.

===Critical race theory===
:{{See also|Critical theory}}
[[Derrick Bell]],<ref>https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/derrick-bell/</ref> [[Barack Obama]]’s favorite [[Harvard]] professor, devised Critical Race Theory,<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/critical-race-theorys-toxic-destructive-impact-on-america</ref> which exemplifies Lenin’s strategy as applied to race. According to Discover the Networks:
{{quotebox-float|Critical race theory contends that America is permanently racist to its core, and that consequently the nation’s legal structures are, by definition, racist and invalid … members of “oppressed” racial groups are entitled—in fact obligated—to determine for themselves which laws and traditions have merit and are worth observing. …}}
[[File:Rules-for-radicals-Obama-tribe-and-cabinet-768x456.jpg|right|300px|thumb|]]
Bell’s theory is in turn an innovation of [[Critical Theory]], which was developed by Marxist thinkers of the [[Frankfurt School]] in Frankfurt, Germany, in 1923. The Institute’s left-wing scholars fled Hitler’s Germany in the 1930s, relocating to [[Columbia University]] in New York. Critical Theory, which discredits all aspects of Western society, we know today as [[political correctness]]. One of its most famous purveyors was the Frankfurt School’s [[Herbert Marcuse]], longtime associate of the [[Southern Poverty Law Center]]’s [[Julian Bond]]. Marcuse invented the concept of “partisan tolerance,” that is, [[tolerance]] for leftist ideas and [[intolerance]] of all others. The Southern Poverty Law Center applied Marcuse's strategy in developing its “Hate Watch” list, and ''[[Rules for Radicals]]'' author [[Saul Alinsky]] used it in his own life's work.

The “racist” narrative was turbocharged with the concept of “White Privilege,” the notion that whites—the dominant [[demographic]] group in capitalist America—are irretrievably racist, [[sexist]], [[homophobic]], [[xenophobic]], [[imperialist]]ic oppressors who exploit everyone. Whites are the only true [[evil]] in the world and should be exterminated. “Dr. Kamau Kambon, who taught Africana Studies 241 in the Spring 2005 semester at North Carolina State University, also said this needs to be done ‘because white people want to kill us.’”<ref>''[https://www.carolinajournal.com/news-article/activist-exterminate-white-people/ Activist: exterminate white people],'' by Jon Sanders, Carolina Journal, Oct. 21, 2015.</ref>

The “White Skin Privilege” idea was created in 1967 by [[Noel Ignatiev]],<ref>Fernando, Ivan (November 18, 2013). [http://diversitychronicle.wordpress.com/2013/11/18/progressive-professor-urges-white-male-students-to-commit-suicide-during-class/ "Progressive professor urges white male students to commit suicide during class"]. Diversity Chronicle website.</ref> an acolyte of Derrick Bell and professor at Harvard's W.E.B. Du Bois Institute. Ignatiev was a member of the [[Communist Party USA]]’s most radical wing, the Provisional Organizing Committee to Reconstitute the Marxist-Leninist Communist Party from 1958–66. The Provisional Organizing Committee was the intellectual forerunner to the [[Freedom Road Socialist Organization]], a [[Vanguardism|vanguard]] group. Writing under the alias Noel Ignatin, Ignatiev co-authored a [[Students for a Democratic Society]] (SDS) pamphlet with fellow radical Ted Allen titled, ''White Blindspot''. In 1992 he co-founded ''Race Traitor: Journal of the New Abolitionism''.

===Racist travel ban===

Regime chief propagandist [[Jen Psaki]] refused to answer questions about Biden's racist travel ban on Africans travelling from Black African countries. When Simon Ateba, a black African reporter with ''Today News Africa'', attempted to question Psaki about the racist motivations behind the travel ban on black Africans, Psaki ignored Ateba in favor of a sympathetic white liberal reporter.<ref>https://www.mediaite.com/news/psaki-repeatedly-shuts-down-today-news-africa-reporter-for-shouting-questions-about-omicron-at-briefing/</ref> Ateba was persistent, and wanted to know why with no cases of the Omicron coronavirus variant in [[Zimbabwe]], [[Namibia]], [[Lesotho]], and [[Mozambique]], what justified the travel ban on countries with zero cases of the variant. Ateba asked, “What would you say to those who believe that this is a racist ban, that it is only on African and black African nations?”<ref>https://thepoliticalinsider.com/african-reporter-confronts-jen-psaki-on-bidens-racist-covid-travel-ban/</ref>

Psaki couldn't answer the question and scolded Ateba about decorum, telling him to learn his place by watching his white counterparts.<ref>https://therightscoop.com/african-reporter-that-psaki-scolded-about-decorum-says-biden-is-disrespecting-africa-which-is-mostly-brown-black/</ref> According to ''Fox News'', Ateba said,
[[File:Ateba Psaki.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Psaki made rude and disparaging comments toward Simon Ateba of ''Today Africa News''.]]
{{quotebox-float|"The travel ban was built on a lie. The president on November 26 [2021] banned 8 African countries. Only 2 of those countries had any case of the omicron variant.”

Ateba, a native of [[Cameroon]] according to the Committee to Protect Journalists, went on to question the supposed [[science]] behind Biden’s ban, pointing to Namibia, a small country on the continent’s Atlantic coast. The nation of 2.5 million people registered only 400 cases of COVID-19 since the virus’ inception, he said, but yet Biden essentially punished them anyway.

“There’s total chaos: People can’t travel to Namibia, Zimbabwe [or] Mozambique, yet they have zero cases. So I don’t believe I was the one being disrespectful. I think Africa was disrespected, by banning countries based on a lie,” he said, referencing claims by Psaki he was being disrespectful of his fellow White House reporters."<ref>https://rumble.com/vq7lll-african-journalist-biden-is-disrespecting-africa-with-a-travel-ban-based-on.html</ref>}}

==Ideology==
The Democratic party's failed [[Trump-Russia collusion hoax]] destroyed the American people's faith in [[mainstream media]] news coverage and brought a cloud over the perception of the American system of government throughout much of the world.

In 2020, elected Democrat mayors and governors threatened with arrest citizens going to church, funerals, graduation parties, or even playing with their children in public parks while giving license to violent leftwing mobs to riot, loot, burn down churches and shopping districts in minority communities, take taxpayers hostage in broad sections of a city, and to murder innocent people, including the police. When an armed mob of leftist insurrectionists took over and occupied a seven square block area of [[Seattle]], local and state elected Democrat officials did not respond to requests from citizens and taxpayers to protect property and liberate from oppression 8,000 residents held hostage. The DNC partners with the [[Antifa]] [[terrorist]] organization for fundraising.<ref>https://noqreport.com/2020/07/19/action-network-bonds-antifa-blm-riots-and-dnc-at-the-hip/</ref>

Democrats are anti-free speech, religion, the Constitutional electoral process, [[separation of powers]], and advocate court-packing. Elected Democrat officials have refused to protect the lives and property of citizen taxpayers who voted for them, paid for emergency police, fire, and medical services, and pay their salary.

Democrats have become [[radical]]ized, [[elitism|elitist]], have abandoned the interests of working people, and their leaders have endorsed violence to promote "change." By contrast, the [[Republican Party]] is generally [[pro-life]] and pro-free enterprise, supporting lower taxes, gun rights, individual liberty, small responsible government,<ref>http://www.diffen.com/difference/Democrat_vs_Republican#Role_of_Government</ref> tolerance, the two party system, and the free, open exchange of ideas.

In [[Kentucky]], voters overwhelmingly rejected the Democrats' racist agenda, electing the state's first black [[Attorney General]] and first Republican in 70 years, [[Daniel Cameron]]. Four years earlier, Kentucky voters elected conservative Republican Jenean Hampton as the state's first black statewide elected official, and the Republican governor they elected, [[Matt Bevin]], had adopted four children from Ethiopia.

'''First Party System'''

Democrats claim that [[Thomas Jefferson]] founded their party in 1792 at the start of the [[First Party System]]. The [[Republicans (Jeffersonian)|Jeffersonian Republicans]] was a political party established under the leadership of Jefferson and [[James Madison]]. At the time, it was generally called the Republicans, but it had no relationship to today's Republican Party, founded in 1854. The 1816 election was the last occasion when the Federalist Party nominated a presidential candidate. In the 1820s, the Jeffersonian Republicans split into several fractions. [[Andrew Jackson]] emerged as the candidate of one of these groups and was elected president in 1828. Well into the 21st century, Jefferson and Jackson have been regularly honored by local Democrat parties with an annual Jefferson-Jackson fundraising dinner.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/09/us/jefferson-jackson-dinner-will-be-renamed.html|title=Jefferson-Jackson Dinner Will Be Renamed|date=August 8, 2015|work=New York Times|accessdate=|first=Ashley|last=Southhall}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://blogs.denverpost.com/thespot/2015/11/16/colorado-democratic-party-considers-renaming-annual-jefferson-jackson-dinner/123835/|title=Colorado Democrats consider renaming Jefferson Jackson dinner|work=The Denver Post|first=John|last= Frank|date=November 16, 2015|accessdate=}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=

Most historians regard Jackson's 1832 campaign organization as the beginning of today's Democratic Party. The Democratic Party itself traces its origin to Jefferson's Republicans and the Whisky Rebellion.<ref>World Book</ref> The leadership of the Jeffersonian Republicans, including [[John Quincy Adams]] and [[Henry Clay]], created the National Republican Party. Adams supporters called themselves National Republicans, antecedents of the merchant class Whig and later the Republican parties.<ref name="presidents">William DeGregorio, ''The Complete Book of U.S. Presidents'', Gramercy 1997</ref>
[[File:Cons4 (2).jpg|left|300px|thumb]]
The modern Democratic party was formed during 1828–34, under the national leadership of Jackson and Van Buren, with organizations in all the states comprised of local political leaders. This became the era of [[Jacksonian Democracy]]. The Jacksonians resembled the [[Jeffersonian Democracy|Jeffersonians]] especially in terms of anti-elite rhetoric of opposition to "aristocracy" (that is, wealthy old families), distrust of banks (and paper money), they were "yeoman farmers" or "hillbillies", with faith in "the people." By his extensive use of federal [[Spoils system|patronage]], President Jackson removed old office-holders to make way for party loyalists. The U.S. Postal Service was the federal government's largest employer. With the emergence of the merchant or middle class Whig Party, the nation now had a new party system, the [[Second Party System]], which lasted until 1854.

The party held its first national convention in 1832 to choose a new running mate for Jackson; it nominated Martin Van Buren for vice president and endorsed the reelection of Jackson. Jackson easily defeated Clay in 1832. In the political realignment of 1828–32, some of Jackson's supporters from the election of 1828, especially businessmen and bankers, switched to the opposition Whig Party as Jackson crusaded against the [[Second Bank of the United States]]. The name "Democratic Party" became common by the mid-1830s.

=== Jacksonian Democracy===
[[image:donk1837.jpg|thumb|1837 cartoon shows Democratic Party as donkey]]
The new party dominated the [[Second Party System]] (as political scientists call it; historians call it "Jacksonian Democracy", 1832–54). After 1832, the Democratic Party drew support from a cross-section of the country. The vast majority of rich merchants, bankers, and [[plantation]] owners were Whigs, as were most evangelical Protestants. The party was strongest among traditionalistic farmers, frontiersmen, unskilled workers, Irish Catholics, and local or state political leaders. It was weakest in [[New England]], where industrialization turned most factory workers and white-collar workers into Whigs, but was dominant in all other regions. The key issues it promoted were opposition to elites and aristocrats, popular democracy (in terms of voting rights and access to government patronage jobs) and opposition to the Bank of the United States (Jackson vetoed its charter renewal in 1832). The policies were known as [[Jacksonian Democracy]]. [[Image:Jackson1832.jpg|thumb|300px|left]]

Banking and tariffs were the central domestic policy issues from 1828 to 1852. The Democrats favored the [[Mexican-American War]]; Whigs opposed it. Democrats attracted Catholic Irish and German immigrants and denounced anti-immigrant nativism. Both the Democrats and Whigs were divided on the issue of slavery.

In the 1830s the Loco-Focos in New York City were radically democratic, anti-monopoly, and proponents of [[laissez-faire]]. Their chief spokesman was writer [[William Leggett]]. At this time labor unions were few; some were loosely affiliated with the party.

The economy went sour in the late 1830s with Van Buren getting the blame; he lost reelection as president in 1840 to the Whig [[William Henry Harrison]]. The Democrats gained the White House back in 1844 with [[James K. Polk]]. He had a successful term, then retired. The Democratic National Committee was created in 1848 at the convention that nominated General [[Lewis Cass]], who lost to General [[Zachary Taylor]] of the Whigs. In state after state, the Democrats gained small but permanent advantages over the Whigs, until by 1852 the Whig Party was fatally weakened by divisions regarding the issue of slavery and they soon vanished.

The Democratic party dominated the North from the 1840s to 1854. Northern Democrats opposed banks, criticized corporate practices, and preached the ideals of a free society. They called for rapid territorial expansion of the United States, saying that in territorial expansion lay a means for thwarting the pretensions of the [[Slave Power]].

[[Franklin Pierce]] of New Hampshire was elected president in 1852, followed by [[James Buchanan]] of Pennsylvania in 1856. They proved poor presidents who lost control of the slavery issue, and the party, as the nation broke apart and fought the [[American Civil War]].

====Racist and segregationist traditions====

:''See also [[Trail of Tears]], [[genocide|Ethnic cleansing]] and [[Dred Scott decision]]''
The 21st Congress was controlled by the Jacksonian Democrats. The first major bill they passed was the [[Indian Removal Act]], authorizing the removal of the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Seminoles from the South, primarily Georgia and Florida, to a territory west of the Mississippi River which became [[Oklahoma]]. The bill was controversial, opposed by many Christians and Northerners. During the first stage of the Choctaws’ forced migration begun in 1831, thousands died during the journey. Each successive stage was marred by a lack of food, shelter, and protection from the elements. Diphtheria and typhoid were rampant. Over the decade, more than 46,000 Native Americans experienced these conditions.

Historian John Toland maintains that the [[Nazi Party]]'s segregation and deportation of [[Jew]]s into ghettos and concentration camps were derived from the Democratic Party's segregation and deportation of Native Americans to reservation land.<ref>https://jewishjournal.com/culture/food/182867/honoring-native-american-voices-recognizing-tragic-history-and-praising-brave-spirits/</ref>
[[File:Trail of Tears.png|right|350px|thumb|Andrew Jackson not only founded the Democratic Party, but he also founded the infamous Trail of Tears.]]
In the 31st Congress, the Democrats had a majority in the Senate and a large plurality in the House, while the [[Free Soil Republican]]s held only 9 seats. The [[Whig]]s held the second largest contingent as well as the White House. Congress passed the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which penalized local and state officials in free states who did not arrest an alleged runaway slave on demand of a slave owner. Any person aiding a runaway slave by providing food or shelter was subject to six months' imprisonment and a fine. Slave owners needed only to supply a sworn affidavit to a U.S. Marshal to capture an escaped slave. Since a suspected slave had no [[Jury trial|right to trial]], the law resulted in the kidnapping of free blacks by bounty hunters and conscription into slavery in both free states and slave states, as suspected fugitive slaves were denied the right to a legal defense. The law's passage ultimately led to the demise of the Whigs and rise of Free Soil-Republicans.

Jackson had appointed his [[Attorney General]], [[Roger B. Taney]], to fill the seat of retiring Chief Justice [[John Marshall]]. In 1846, [[Dred Scott]], an African-American slave living in Missouri, filed suit against his master for his own freedom. Scott argued that he had legally gained freedom in the 1830s, when he had resided with a previous master in the free state of Illinois and a portion of the Louisiana Territory where slavery was banned. After a series of legal battles lasting over a decade, the case made its way to the Supreme Court.

Democrat President [[James Buchanan]] said in his inaugural address that the issue of slavery would soon be "finally settled" by the Supreme Court.<ref>Simon (2006), pp. 117–120</ref> Taney sought to permanently remove slavery as a subject of national debate. All the Democratic appointees on the Court were outraged over what they saw as "Northern aggression" towards slavery, an institution they believed was critical to "Southern life and values."<ref>McPherson171174</ref> In the Dred Scott decision of 1857, the Taney Court ruled that persons of African descent could not be, nor were ever intended to be, citizens under the U.S. Constitution. Taney wrote that the framers of the Constitution believed that blacks “had no rights which the white man was bound to respect;" and that the negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his benefit. The court also declared the [[Missouri Compromise]] unconstitutional (the Missouri Compromise of 1819 allowed for admission of new states to the Union on a one-for-one basis, one free state for every one slave state), thus permitting slavery in all territories of the westward expansion.

The ''Dred Scott'' decision received strong criticism and bolstered the growing popularity of the [[Republican Party]]. Republicans rejected Taney's legal reasoning and argued that the [[Declaration of Independence]] showed that the [[Founding Fathers]] favored the protection of individual rights for all free men, regardless of race.<ref>Simon (2006), pp. 138–139</ref> Many Republicans accused Taney of being part of a conspiracy to legalize slavery throughout the United States.<ref>Simon (2006), pp. 155–156</ref>

===Civil War and aftermath===
During the [[Third Party System]] (1854-1896) the Democrats became the minority in the face of the newly formed Republican Party (formed by former Whigs and Free Soil [[abolition]]ists), which controlled nearly all northern states by 1860, bringing a solid majority in the Electoral College. A powerful Republican issue was the allegation that northern Democrats, including "Doughfaces" like Pierce and Buchanan, and advocates of [[popular sovereignty]] like [[Stephen A. Douglas]] and [[Lewis Cass]], were accomplices to the [[Slave Power]]. The Republicans meant by Slave Power the conspiracy of slaveholders to seize control of the federal government and block the "progress of liberty."
[[File:371px-Scourged back by McPherson & Oliver, 1863, colourised.jpg|right|275px|thumb|''Another definition of [[Progressive|Progressivism]]:'' Prior to the end of slavery and suppressing the vote for 100 years, then later keeping Blacks dependent on [[entitlement]]s, Democrats used the whip to keep Blacks in line.]]
The Republican Party was beginning a 50-year era of dominance (1858-1910). During the war, Northern Democrats divided into two factions, [[War Democrats]], who supported the military policies of President Lincoln, and [[Copperheads]], who strongly opposed them. Historian Kenneth Stampp has captured the Copperhead spirit in his depiction of Democratic Congressman Daniel W. Voorhees of Indiana:
{{quotebox-float|There was an earthy quality in Voorhees, "the tall sycamore of the Wabash." On the stump his hot temper, passionate [[partisan]]ship, and stirring eloquence made an irresistible appeal to the western Democracy. His bitter cries against [[Protectionism|protective]] [[tariff]]s and national banks, his intense [[race prejudice]], his suspicion of the eastern Yankee, his devotion to personal liberty, his defense of the Constitution and state rights faithfully reflected the views of his constituents. Like other Jacksonian agrarians he resented the political and economic revolution then in progress. Voorhees idealized a way of life which he thought was being destroyed by the current rulers of his country. His bold protests against these dangerous trends made him the idol of the Democracy of the Wabash Valley.<ref>Stampp, 211.</ref>}}
[[File:Leaders of the Democratic Party.jpg|left|300px|thumb| Leaders of the Democratic Party. The Butcher Forrest is [[Nathan Bedford Forrest]], founder of the [[Ku Klux Klan]]. ''Library of Congress''<ref>[https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2008661705/ Leaders of the Democratic Party : The rioter Seymour ... The butcher Forrest ... The pirate Semmes ... The hangman Hampton ...], Thomas Nast, 1868. Library of Congress.</ref>]]
In 1860 the Democrats were unable to stop the election of Republican [[Abraham Lincoln]], even as they feared his election would lead to civil war. The party was divided between North and South. The northern wing nominated Douglas, and the southern wing nominated Vice President [[John C. Breckinridge]]. Douglas campaigned across the country and came in second in the popular vote, but carried only Missouri. Breckinridge carried 11 slave states.

The heart of Democrat Resistance in the North resided in New York. The New York City draft riots (July 13–16, 1863) were the largest civil and racially-charged insurrection in American history, aside from the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] itself. Initially intended as a protest against the draft, it turned into a race riot. Workers feared free black people would compete for jobs. Black people throughout the city were attacked. 120 people were killed, public buildings, churches, homes of various abolitionists or sympathizers, and many black homes were ransacked or destroyed. The Colored Orphan Asylum was burnt to the ground.

Only a fraction of Union troops occupied the South after the war, and the balance mustered out according to length of service. Because blacks were not admitted into ranks until the middle of the war, they were retained at a higher rate, making the occupying force "blacker" than the one that won the war. The roughly 200,000 black Americans who served in the Union Army comprised an estimated 10 percent of the North's total fighting force. But by the last quarter of 1865, blacks made up about one-third of the occupation army. Many Southerners took this as a deliberate Republican insult.<ref>https://slate.com/human-interest/2018/02/what-reconstruction-and-its-end-meant-for-black-americans-who-had-fought-for-the-right-to-keep-and-bear-arms.html</ref>

The Democrats lost consecutive presidential elections from 1860 through 1880 (but 1876 was in dispute); 1884 was their next victory. The Democrats were weakened by "The Cause" in the Civil War but benefited from resentment toward Republicans for its effort to promote equality for blacks in Reconstruction. The Republicans received the eternal hatred and hostility of Democrats, and shied away from social issues for the next 150 years, focusing instead on its original purpose of preserving the Union through national security, and on economic issues. The [[Redeemers]] gave the Democrats control of every Southern state. [[Ku Klux Klan|Democratic terrorism]] at first was focused on Republicans; once the Republicans had been chased out, the [[lynching]] of Blacks peaked about 1892 with over 150 victims, or about one every two days.

Across [[the South]] Republican parties were formed by African Americans. Black people were the original Republicans in the South.
The Republican Party in [[Texas]] was founded on the 4th of July 1867 in [[Houston, Texas]] by 150 African Americans and 20 whites. Two of the first three statewide Republican chairman were African American. The first 42 Black legislators elected in Texas were all Republican.
The first 112 Black legislators elected in [[Mississippi]] were all Republican. The first 190 Black legislators elected in [[South Carolina]] were all Republicans. The first 41 Black legislators in [[Georgia]] were Republicans. The first 127 Black legislators in [[Louisiana]] were Republicans.

====Birth of the Klan====

:{{See also|Reconstruction}}
In 1866 [[Democrat]]s formed the [[Ku Klux Klan]]. Its purpose was to take control and return Democrats to power. The Ku Klux Klan started attacking Black Republican conventions. At the Republican convention in Louisiana, the Klan joined with [[New Orleans]] police and New Orleans' Democrat mayor. The New Orleans Republican convention was attacked. 40 Blacks and 20 whites were killed. Another 150 were wounded.

In 1868 the Democrats put out push cards in South Carolina listing what they called the 'radical' members of the South Carolina legislature. A push card is about the size of a baseball card. The cards had the pictures of 63 legislators they wanted to kill. 50 of the legislators were Black and 13 were white. All 63 were Republicans. On the back of the was the name of the legislator.

In 1872 Congress held hearings on the Klan. Democrat leaders from Democrat States admitted under oath unequivocally that the Klan belonged to the Democrat party and their propose was to restore control in Southern states to the Democratic party. The Congressional Hearings make up 13 volumes. Black congressmen John Roy Lynch and Richard Cain went to Congress armed for fear of Klan attacks. Blacks testified that they instructed by the Klan and Democrats that, if they would stop voting the Republican ticket and would agree to vote the straight Democrat ticket, all the violence against Blacks would stop.

The Coushatta massacre of 1874 was the result of an attack by the White League, a [[paramilitary]] organization composed of Democrats, on Republican officeholders and African Americans in Red River Parish, [[Louisiana]]. They murdered six white Republicans and 20 Blacks who were witnesses.<ref>[http://www.neh.gov/news/humanities/2004-01/reconstruction.html Danielle Alexander, "Forty Acres and a Mule: The Ruined Hope of Reconstruction", ''Humanities'', January/February 2004, Vol.25/No.1.

The White League had organized to restore [[white supremacy]] by driving Republicans out of Louisiana, disrupting their political organizing, and intimidating or murdering [[freedmen]].<ref>Eric Foner, ''Reconstruction: America's Unfinished Revolution, 1863-1877'', New York: Perennial Classics, 2002, p.550</ref> Like the Red Shirts and other "White Line" organizations, they were described as "the military arm of the Democratic Party."

On election day, November 3, 1874, an [[Alabama]] chapter of the White League repeated actions taken earlier that year in Vicksburg, Mississippi. They invaded Eufaula AL, killing at least seven black Republicans, injuring at least 70 more, and driving off more than 1,000 unarmed Republicans from the polls.<ref>Mary Ellen Curtin, ''Black Prisoners and Their World, Alabama, 1865-1900,'' University Press of Virginia, 2000, p. 55</ref> The group moved on to Spring Hill AL, where members stormed the polling place, destroying the ballot box, and killing the 16-year-old son of a white Republican judge in their shooting.<ref>Curtin (2000), ''Black Prisoners'', pp. 55-56.</ref>

The White League refused to count any Republican votes cast. But, Republican voters reflected the black majority in the county, as well as white supporters. They outnumbered Democratic voters by a margin greater than two to one. The League declared the Democratic candidates victorious, forced Republican politicians out of office, and seized every county office in Barbour County, Alabama.<ref name="Curtin 2000 p. 56">Curtin (2000), ''Black Prisoners'', p. 56</ref> Such actions were repeated in other parts of the South in the 1870s, as Democrats sought to regain political dominance in states with black majorities and numerous Republican officials. In Barbour County, the Democrats auctioned off as "slaves" (for a maximum cost of $2 per month), or otherwise silenced all Republican witnesses to the events. They were intimidated from testifying to the coup if the case went to federal court.<ref name="Curtin 2000 p. 56"/>

Jim Crow and the disenfranchisement of black voters in most of the South took place 1890–1900. Nonwhites were excluded from the Democratic Party in 1890.<ref>Brown and Stentiford, ''Jim Crow: A Historical Encyclopedia of the American Mosaic'', Greenwood, 2014, p. xviii</ref> From 1880 to 1960 the "[[Solid South]]" voted Democratic in all presidential elections (except 1928).

GAR veteran 2nd Lieut. Nathaniel Grigsby of Company G, 10th Indiana Cavalry died at the age of 79 in 1890. Grigsby's brother was married to Abraham's Lincoln's sister. Grigsby had this written on his tombstone:
{{quotebox-float|Through this inscription I wish to enter my dying protest against what is called the Democratic party.

Though Republicans continued to control the White House until 1912 (except 1884 and 1892), the Democrats remained competitive in the states, especially in the mid-Atlantic and lower Midwest, and controlled the House of Representatives for most of that period. In the election of 1884, [[Grover Cleveland]], the conservative Democratic Governor of New York, won the presidency, a feat he repeated in 1892, having lost in the election of 1888.

====Civil service replaces Reconstruction and the spoils system====
:{{See also|Civil service system}}
While the Democratic party lost the Civil War, it won the battle to control the United States Civil Service [[bureaucracy]].<ref>[https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/05/21/trump-vs-the-deep-state Trump vs the Deep State], Evan Osnos, ''[[The New Yorker]]'', May 14, 2018</ref> Since the end of Reconstruction in 1876 and passage of the 1882 Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act, the Democratic party is no longer dependent on the spoils system and winning elections to maintain its power.

With the defeat of the Democrats and the South, to the victors went the spoils. Republicans immediately stripped [[white]] [[male]]s who engaged in rebellion against the [[United States]] of the [[vote]], and gave it to Blacks. Newly freed Blacks held local, state and federal elected and non-elected positions as Republicans. The white males who were deprived of the vote were also barred from holding any civil service position and were universally Democrats. This disenfranchisement created enormous resentment among Democrats, so they formed the [[Ku Klux Klan]] to engage in voter intimidation and suppression.

By 1876, the situation had become ungovernable for Republicans.<ref>"the Compromise of 1877, which resolved the disputed presidential election of 1876 by awarding the presidency to Republican Rutherford B. Hayes (who had lost the popular vote) in exchange for the removal of federal troops from the South after the Civil War (which benefitted Democrats, who wished to end Reconstruction and return white supremacy to southern state governments)." [https://www.khanacademy.org/humanities/us-history/the-gilded-age/gilded-age/a/gilded-age-politics-patronage Gilded Age politics: patronage]. khanacademy.org</ref> The Republicans had been able to pass the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments which guaranteed Blacks basic equality and civil rights, but eventually had to declare an amnesty for whites who engaged in rebellion. Reconstruction ended, and Republicans withdrew from [[social engineering]] which had divided the country so deeply and stirred up such bitterness and hatred among Democrats toward both Blacks and Republicans. Reconstruction earned Republicans the undying [[hatred]] of Democrats.<ref>See for example [https://youtu.be/-yY7g2jOquM James O'Keefe debate with Hairy Hillbilly Hippie] for an example of a partisan Democrat who votes against his own economic interests.</ref><ref>See excerpt from [[Dinesh D'Souza]]'s, ''[https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/dinesh-dsouza-the-secret-history-of-the-democratic-party Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party]'', Regnery Publishing, July 18, 2016.</ref>

African Americans in the South were left to the mercy of increasingly hostile state governments dominated by white Democratic legislatures; neither the legislatures, law enforcement or the courts worked to protect freedmen.<ref>{{cite book|title=Encyclopedia of American Civil Liberties|author=Finkelman, Paul|year=2006}}</ref> As [[Democrats]] regained power in the late 1870s, they struggled to suppress black voting through intimidation and fraud at the polls. [[Paramilitary]] groups such as the [[Red Shirts]] acted on behalf of the Democrats to suppress black voting. From 1890 to 1908, 10 of the 11 former Confederate states passed disfranchising constitutions or amendments,<ref>{{cite book|title=Democracy's Privileged Few|author=Chafetz, Joshua Aaron|year=2007}}</ref> with provisions for [[poll tax]]es,<ref name="Klarman, Michael J. 2004">{{cite book|title=From Jim Crow to Civil Rights|author=Klarman, Michael J.|year=2004}}</ref> residency requirements, [[literacy test]]s,<ref name="Klarman, Michael J. 2004"/> and [[grandfather clause]]s that effectively disfranchised most black voters and many poor white people. The disfranchisement also meant that black people could not serve on juries or hold any political office, which were restricted to voters; those who could not vote were excluded from the political system.

Cleveland was the leader of the [[Bourbon Democrats]], the [[bourgeois]] wing of the party. They represented business [[elitism|elites]], supported banking and railroad goals, promoted capitalism, opposed the annexation of [[Hawaii]], fought for the [[gold standard]], and opposed [[Bimetallism]]. They strongly supported ending Republican spoils with the [[Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act|Civil Service Reform Act]] and opposed corruption of city bosses, leading the fight against the Tweed Ring. The leading Bourbons included [[Samuel J. Tilden]], David Bennett Hill and William C. Whitney of New York, Arthur Pue Gorman of Maryland, Thomas F. Bayard of Delaware, William L. Wilson of West Virginia, [[John Griffin Carlisle]] of Kentucky, William F. Vilas of Wisconsin, J. Sterling Morton of Nebraska, John M. Palmer of Illinois, Horace Boies of Iowa, L.Q.C. Lamar of Mississippi, and railroad builder James J. Hill of Minnesota. A prominent intellectual was pro-segregationist [[Woodrow Wilson]]. The Bourbons were in power when the [[Panic of 1893]] hit; it was a deep depression and they took the blame. A fierce struggle inside the party ensued, with catastrophic losses for both the Bourbon and agrarian factions in 1894, leading to the showdown in 1896.

===Bryan and anti-Semitism===

[[Grover Cleveland]] led the [[bourgeois]] [[Bourbon Democrat]]s but as the [[Panic of 1893|depression of 1893]] deepened his enemies multiplied. The Panic of 1893 started in February 1893, a full month before Cleveland became president. Convinced that the Sherman Silver Purchase Act, passed under the administration of [[Benjamin Harrison]], was largely responsible for the alarming drain on federal gold, President Cleveland called Congress into special session to urge its repeal. Congress consented, but only after bitter debate that divided the Democratic party into two hostile camps-the eastern "goldbugs" and the silver wing of the West and South that was to propel young [[William Jennings Bryan]] to the fore in 1896.<ref name="presidents" />

At the 1896 convention, the silverite-agrarian faction repudiated the president and nominated the crusading orator [[William Jennings Bryan]] on a platform of inflation through "free" silver. The idea was that minting huge numbers of silver dollars would flood the economy with cash and end the depression. Eastern Democrats, unable to accept the party's free-silver platform and unwilling to support McKinley for his tariff views, nominated their own candidate, John M. Palmer of Illinois and called themselves the National, or Gold, Democrats.<ref name="presidents" /> The [[Gold Democrats]] attracted prominent figure such as segregationist [[Woodrow Wilson]] and historian [[Frederick Jackson Turner]] , known for ignoring the contributions of minorities and who refused to vote Republican.

Bryan became an overnight sensation among Democrats with his "Cross of Gold" speech: {{Cquote|"You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns. You shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.”<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQQ0AjqzFxQ</ref>}} Implicit was his assertion that the religious group responsible for the death of Christ was also the source of the United States’ economic woes.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=mJLHrb-o5E0C&pg=PA50&lpg=PA50&dq=You+shall+not+press+down+upon+the+brow+of+labor+this+crown+of+thorns,+you+shall+not+crucify+mankind+upon+a+cross+of+gold.%27%27+The+antisemitism+evoked+by&source=bl&ots=fp9QYcxY3W&sig=ACfU3U3zQFaSOMeeKxu8DlnOdXz5RdWb7A&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjyyr_4tYfgAhXL5YMKHQ5_DKgQ6AEwDnoECAIQAQ#v=onepage&q=You%20shall%20not%20press%20down%20upon%20the%20brow%20of%20labor%20this%20crown%20of%20thorns%2C%20you%20shall%20not%20crucify%20mankind%20upon%20a%20cross%20of%20gold.''%20The%20antisemitism%20evoked%20by&f=false Antisemitism in America], Leonard Dinnerstein, Oxford University Press, Nov 2, 1995, p. 50.</ref> Crisscrossing the Midwest and East by special train, he gave over 500 speeches to audiences in the millions. In St. Louis he gave 36 speeches to workingmen's audiences all over the city, all in one day. Most Democratic newspapers were hostile (except [[William Randolph Hearst]]'s ''New York Journal'') but Bryan seized control of the media by making the news every day, as he hurled thunderbolts against "Eastern monied interests," a codeword for "Jewish bankers."<ref>https://twitter.com/jdickerson/status/788461796772446208</ref> Using [[fraud]] and [[violence]], and rallying support by appealing to white supremacy, the Democrats held on to their power in Southern states.

Bryan was overwhelmed by [[William McKinley]] in the most exciting race in national history.<ref>Refuting Bryan's charges, historians have discovered there was little coercion of workers.</ref> McKinley promised a return to prosperity based on the gold standard, support for industry, railroads and banks, and pluralism that would enable every group to move ahead. Bryan did, however, win the hearts and minds of a majority of Democrats. The election of 1896 was a political realignment. The victory of the Republican Party marked the start of the "Progressive Era," from 1896 to 1932, in which the GOP usually was dominant.

===Wilson and the KKK===
:{{See also|Plessy v. Ferguson}}
[[Melville Fuller]] was appointed Chief Justice by President [[Grover Cleveland]] in 1888. Fuller managed Democrat [[Stephen A. Douglas]]'s campaign in the [[1860 presidential election]] against Abraham Lincoln. He was known as a Copperhead Democrat. In 1896, a Fuller Court decision declared that racial segregation does not violate the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment so long as the "separate but equal" doctrine is followed. The decision allowed the continued existence of Jim Crow laws for another six decades.

The [[Fourth Party System]] began with the 1896 election, a realignment during which the GOP controlled the presidency for 28 of 36 years. The GOP dominated most of the Northeast and Midwest, and half the West. Veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic, or GAR, became the GOP. One of the consequences of the Democratic victories in the South was that many Southern Congressmen and Senators were almost automatically re-elected every election. Due to the importance of seniority in the U.S. Senate, Southerners were able to control most of the committees and kill any civil rights legislation.<ref>https://www.thirteen.org/wnet/jimcrow/stories_org_democratic.html</ref> [[William Jennings Bryan]], with a base in the South and Plains states, was strong enough to get the nomination again in 1900 (losing to McKinley) and 1908 (losing to Taft). [[Theodore Roosevelt]] dominated the first decade of the century—and to the annoyance of Democrats "stole" the trust issue by crusading against trusts.
When [[Booker T. Washington]]'s autobiography, ''Up From Slavery'', was published in 1901, it became a bestseller and had a major impact on the African American community, and its friends and allies. Washington in 1901 was the first African-American ever invited to the White House as the guest of President Theodore Roosevelt – white Democrats complained loudly, although Washington remained as an advisor to Roosevelt.<ref>Larry Schweikart and Michael Allen, "A Patriot's History of the United States" (2007)</ref>

Anti-Bryan conservatives controlled the convention in 1904, but they faced a [[Theodore Roosevelt]] landslide. Bryan dropped his free silver and anti-[[imperialism]] rhetoric and supported mainstream [[progressive]] issues, such as the income tax, anti-trust, and direct election of Senators. He backed Woodrow Wilson in 1912, was rewarded with the State Department, then resigned in protest against Wilson's non-pacifistic policies in 1916. Northern Democrats were progressive on most issues, but generally opposed prohibition, were lukewarm regarding [[women's rights]], and were reluctant to undercut the "boss system" in the big cities.
[[File:320px-Birth of a Nation theatrical poster.jpg|left|200px|thumb|'''Birth of a Nation''' released in 1915 depicted the history of the Democratic Party after the Civil War. In 1992, the [[Library of Congress]] deemed the film "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry.]]
Taking advantage of a deep split in the GOP, the Democrats took control of the House in 1910 and elected the Northern segregationist Woodrow Wilson as president in 1912 and 1916. In his first year in office, Wilson permitted his Treasury and the Post Office to begin efforts to [[segregate]] the federal workforce, particularly in the Columbia District. It was often carried out surreptitiously. Yet Wilson condoned it and tried to duck its implications in a manner we would describe today as slimy. Wilson ordered [[Jim Crow]] segregation in all federal government facilities in Washington DC, wiping out 50 years of social progress that African-Americans made under Republicans. No longer could blacks and whites work together in government offices, eat in the same cafeterias, our use the same bathrooms. The Wilson administration went a step further. Through the Treasury Department's Office of the Architect, the bureau charged with construction and maintenance of federal buildings, federal buildings throughout the nation were ordered to furnish segregated bathrooms, even in Northern states were practices as such were virtually unknown.<ref>''American Nightmare: The History of Jim Crow'', Jerrold M. Packard, St. Martin's Press, 2003, pp. 124-125</ref>

Wilson also curtailed minority appointments to executive, diplomatic, and judicial positions. Those latter numbers weren't large — about 30 — but they were posts traditionally reserved for black Americans. The signal was terrible, even if it's unclear that those black appointments would have met approval from a Senate controlled by Southern Democrats. Estimates reckon that between 15,000 and 20,000 black civil service employees, 6% of the federal workforce, were impacted by the administration's actions.<ref>https://www.nysun.com/national/princetons-purge-of-wilson-follows-a-change/91174/</ref> Wilson successfully led Congress to a series of [[Progressive]] laws, including a reduced tariff, stronger antitrust laws, the [[Federal Reserve System]], hours-and-pay benefits for railroad workers, and outlawing of child labor, raising wages for adults. Furthermore, constitutional amendments for prohibition and woman suffrage were passed in his second term. In effect, Wilson laid to rest the issues of tariffs, money and antitrust that had dominated politics for 40 years.

In 1915 the epic [[Hollywood]] film, ''Birth of a Nation'' was released with its portrayal of black men, many played by white actors in blackface, as unintelligent and sexually aggressive towards white women, and the portrayal of the [[Ku Klux Klan]] (KKK) as an heroic force.<ref>[http://www.moviejustice.com/vault/index.php?p=getitem&db_id=4&item_id=27 MJ Movie Reviews – Birth of a Nation, The (1915) by Dan DeVore] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090707194449/http://www.moviejustice.com/vault/index.php?p=getitem&db_id=4&item_id=27 |date=July 7, 2009 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://themovingarts.com/revered-and-reviled-d-w-griffiths-the-birth-of-a-nation/|first=Eric M.|last=Armstrong|title=Revered and Reviled: D.W.

Dixon was alluding to the fact that Wilson upon becoming president in 1913 had imposed segregation on federal workplaces in Washington D.C. while reducing the number of black employees through demotion or dismissal.<ref>Yellin, Eric S. (2013).

Wilson was re-elected in 1916 on the slogan, "He kept us out of war!", the caldron that was inflaming Europe since 1914. Upon inauguration, Wilson promptly took the United States to war to save [[British]] [[Imperialism]]. Great Britain had been the United States principal foreign enemy since its founding, in the [[Revolutionary War]] and [[War of 1812]]; the Confederacy could not have fought without the assistance of British arms. Many Americans could not understand how the United States could come to the aid of Great Britain, which had tried to destroy the Union three times since its inception.
[[File:1924 DNC convention.jpg|right|300px|thumb|1924 Democratic Convention.]]
[[World War I]] left the U.S. with a staggering [[national debt]]. Wilson turned his attention to building trade alliances and foreign affairs. He wrote parts of the [[Versailles Treaty]], especially the new [[League of Nations]]. But in 1919 Wilson's political skills faltered, and suddenly everything turned sour. The Senate rejected Versailles and the League, a nationwide wave of strikes and violence caused unrest, and Wilson's health collapsed. With the rise of the leftist [[Soviet Union]] and [[Communist International]] [[conspiracy]], the world had not been made safe for democracy. The GOP came roaring back in a landslide in 1920, as [[Warren G. Harding]] defeated a Democratic ticket memorable for having [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] as the vice presidential nominee.

====1924 Klanbake====
At the 1924 Democratic National Convention, the big fight was over a resolution denouncing by name the [[Ku Klux Klan]]; it was pushed by New York governor [[Al Smith]] and Alabama Senator Oscar W. Underwood in order to embarrass the front-runner, William McAdoo of California. Party elder statesman and three-time presidential nominee William Jennings Bryan, spoke for two hours in opposition to the plank condemning the Klan by name.<ref>https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/library/politics/camp/240629convention-dem-ra.html</ref>

After furious debate, the resolution failed by a vote of 542.85 in favor to 546.15 opposed.<ref>[http://armored-column.com/the-democratic-klanbake-1924/ Democratic "Klanbake" Convention]</ref> The soaring temperatures gave the convention the name, the Klanbake. At its peak in the mid-1920s, the KKK claimed to include about 15% of the nation's eligible voters, approximately 4–5 million people.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/nge/Article.jsp?id=h-2730 |title=Ku Klux Klan in the Twentieth Century |author=Lay, Shawn |website=New Georgia Encyclopedia |publisher=Coker College }}</ref> The Klan split in the party over cultural issues, especially [[Prohibition]], facilitated Republican landslides in 1920, 1924 and 1928. However [[Al Smith]] did build a strong Catholic base in the big cities in 1928, and [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]]'s election as Governor of New York that year brought a new leader to center stage.

=== New Deal coalition of liberals and segregationists ===
:{{See also|Economic planning}}
The [[stock market crash of 1929]] and the ensuing [[Great Depression]] set the stage for a more progressive government and [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] won a landslide victory in the [[United States presidential election, 1932|election of 1932]], campaigning on a platform of "Relief, Recovery, and Reform." This came to be termed "[[New Deal|The New Deal]]" after a phrase in his acceptance speech. The Democrats also swept to large majorities in both houses of Congress, and among state Governors. Roosevelt altered the nature of the Party, away from laissez-faire capitalism, and towards the [[administrative state]] and [[entitlement]]s. Conservative Democrats were outraged; led by [[Al Smith]] they formed the [[American Liberty League]] in 1934 and counterattacked. They failed and either retired from politics or joined the GOP. A few of them, such as [[Dean Acheson]] found their way back to the Democratic Party.
[[File:Students pledging allegiance to the American flag with the Bellamy salute.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Elementary school children giving the fascist salute while reciting the [[Pledge of Allegiance]] during the New Deal.]]
After making gains in Congress in 1934 Roosevelt moved left and embarked on a big spending program called "The Second New Deal." It was characterized by building a voting bloc of labor unions, nationalizing welfare by the [[WPA]] (with 2 million unemployed men), setting up [[Social Security]] and raising taxes on "economic royalists."

Roosevelt's [[New Deal]] created an Alphabet soup of government programs. They imposed strong regulations on the banking and financial system, transportation, communications, stock markets, labor-management relations and housing. The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) imposed restrictive covenants on mortgage underwriters to discourage government-backed home loans in areas "infiltrated" by "inharmonious racial or nationality groups."<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-new-deal-as-raw-deal-for-blacks-in-segregated-communities/2017/05/25/07416bba-080a-11e7-a15f-a58d4a988474_story.html The New Deal as raw deal for blacks in segregated communities], Charles Lane, ''[[Washington Post]]'', May 25, 2017.</ref> Restrictive covenants were legal documents to ensure that blacks could not buy homes in white neighborhoods. These covenants forbade the owners and their heirs from selling their property to blacks and other racial and ethnic minorities. Because of these covenants, if the owners sold to a minority, the neighborhood property association had the right to sue in court to ensure that property and homes did not change hands and became the property of minorities.

Roosevelt built up the "[[New Deal Coalition]]", a diverse coalition of voters and special interest groups often with conflicting interests. Key components included corrupt big city political machines and labor unions. Key voter groups included traditional white segregationists, Southerners, Catholics, Jews, and liberals, as well as some Northern blacks. Southern New Dealers did not allow Blacks to vote. The big-city machines, largely controlled by immigrant leaders and unions, as well as blacks, were all tied to the party whose existence was maintained by a venomously, anti-Catholic, anti-labor and racist power center - the Southern Bourbon Democrats. The other keystone of the alliance was the [[Communist Party]] and other leftists, who played a crucial role in allying with Roosevelt and the Democrats to ensure that workers did not transcend trade unionism into political action independent of the Democratic Party. This voter base allowed Democrats to be elected to Congress and the presidency for much of the next 30 years.

After a sweeping landslide reelection in 1936—losing only Maine and Vermont—Roosevelt stunned the nation, and his party, by calling for legislation to enlarge the Supreme Court by five new members after the court found illegal and unconstitutional many of Roosevelt's first term programs. A firestorm of opposition erupted, led by his own vice president [[John Nance Garner]]. Roosevelt was defeated by an alliance of Republicans and conservative Democrats, who formed a coalition that managed to block nearly all socialist planning. (Only a minimum wage law got through.) Angry with dissenters in his own party, Roosevelt tried to destroy them. In 1938, he actively campaigned against five incumbent conservative Democratic senators; all five senators won re-election. In 1940, after rejecting DNC chair James Farley as his successor because Farley was [[Catholic]],<ref>John Flynn, ''The Roosevelt Myth'', 1948, p. 179.</ref> Roosevelt broke with tradition and sought a third term as president.

On the eve of [[World War II]], Roosevelt appointed [[Joseph P. Kennedy]], father of John Kennedy, [[Bobby Kennedy]], and [[Ted Kennedy]] as Ambassador to [[Great Britain]]. Joe Kennedy was a notorious [[anti-Semite]] and [[Nazi]] sympathizer. At the time of the [[Kristallnacht]], the ''New York Times'' reported Kennedy had a solution to the problems of German Jews: ship them all to [[Africa]].<ref>https://www.thedailybeast.com/joe-kennedys-answer-to-the-jewish-question-ship-them-to-africa?ref=home?ref=home</ref>

====FDR's Southern Strategy====
[[File:LynchinginAmerica-6ngpoajqm9pq7z40qd21q4ejl9fx6zrggi1pq7r5bic.png|right|300px|thumb|FDR's Southern Strategy: FDR always opposed federal [[anti-lynching legislation]], first introduced by Republicans.<ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2016/12/07/is-it-time-for-progressives-to-stop-venerating-fdr/?utm_term=.2b894a27cc04</ref>]]
To win election, FDR forged a coalition of Northern Democrats and Southern segregationists by placing [[John Nance Garner]] of Texas on the ticket as his running mate. The Democrats won an overwhelming majority in the House, picked up 97 seats, bringing the total to 313. On the Republican side the first African-American in the 20th century, and the first since Reconstruction, Rep. [[Oscar De Priest]] was re-elected. The Democratic chairman of the new Congress' Committee on Accounts, Rep. Lindsay Warren, ordered a De Priest staffer and his son to be thrown out of the House's whites-only cafeteria. There was a separate facility for blacks in the basement. De Priest introduced a resolution calling for an investigation. On the House floor, De Priest refuted Warren's claim that African-Americans had always been banned from the restaurant, recalling that he and other black patrons had frequented the House cafeteria. De Priest implored his colleagues to support the resolution, remarking, {{quotebox-float|“If we allow segregation and the denial of constitutional rights under the Dome of the Capitol, where in God’s name will we get them? If we allow this challenge to go without correcting it, it will set an example where people will say Congress itself approves of segregation.”<ref>https://history.house.gov/People/Listing/D/DE-PRIEST,-Oscar-Stanton-(D000263)/</ref>}}
The effort to desegregate the Democrat-controlled House cafeteria was defeated. Civil rights were not on the party agenda. FDR always opposed the federal anti-lynching law as part of FDR's Southern Strategy. Anti-lynching bills were first introduced by Republicans. The Costigan-Wagner Anti-Lynching Bill was introduced in 1934, calling on the Roosevelt administration to take an active role in ending [[lynching]] in the United States. Senators Edward Costigan of Colorado and Robert Wagner of New York sponsored the bill. Under its provisions, any state officer who failed to exercise diligence in protecting a person under their care from a lynch mob or who neglected to arrest persons involved in a lynching, could themselves be subject to federal imprisonment for five years and a $5,000 fine. In 1935 attempts were made to persuade Roosevelt to speak out in support of the bill. However, Roosevelt refused. He argued that the white voters in the South would never forgive him if he supported the bill and he would, therefore, lose the next election.

Even the appearance in the newspapers of the lynching of Rubin Stacy failed to change Roosevelt's mind on the subject. Six deputies were escorting Stacy to Dade County jail in Miami on July 19, 1935, when he was taken by a white mob and hanged by the side of the home of Marion Jones, the woman who had made the original complaint against him. ''The New York Times'' later revealed that "subsequent investigation revealed that Stacy, a homeless tenant farmer, had gone to the house to ask for food; the woman became frightened and screamed when she saw Stacy's face."<ref>https://www.naacp.org/naacp-history-costigan-wagner-act/</ref> The Costigan-Wagner Bill had wide support; however, the bill was defeated in 1934, 1935, 1937, 1938 and 1940.
[[File:Hugo black kkk.jpeg|right|300px|thumb|Not until after the Democrat Senate approved FDR's appointment of Hugo Black to a lifetime appointment to the bench, was a conservative journalist able to reveal Black was a Klan member.]]
Ever since the Draft Riots of 1863, New York was the bastion of Democratic Resistance in the North. It was a Republican mayor however who made the first efforts to coax traditional black Lincoln Republicans into the New Deal coalition. Fiorello La Guardia was a [[RINO]], or Republican New Dealer. Roosevelt provided federal funds to La Guardia and withheld support from La Guardia's opponents. After the 1935 Harlem riot, La Guardia decreed that African-Americans were not to be arrested for anything, and that police patrolling [[Harlem]] could not carry nightsticks.<ref>[https://vault.fbi.gov/.../Eleanor%20Roosevelt%20Part%2016%20of%2040 Eleanor Roosevelt Part 16 of 37 - FBI — The Vault, p. 46]</ref>

President Roosevelt excluded 4-time gold medalist [[Jesse Owens]] from the customary [[White House]] visit by [[Olympics|Olympic]] athletes. As Jesse Owens later explained:<ref>https://fee.org/articles/hitler-didn-t-snub-me-it-was-our-president/</ref>
{{quotebox-float|"[[Hitler]] didn’t snub me; it was our president [[FDR]] who snubbed me. The president didn’t even send a telegram."}}

In 1937 FDR appointed Alabama Senator [[Hugo Black]] to the Supreme Court. Black was a member of the [[Ku Klux Klan]] and built his career campaigning at Klan meetings. Black was well known for his anti-[[Catholic]] viewpoints.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=WX2LcraS1EgC&pg=PA219 The Oxford Handbook of Church and State in the United States]</ref> In ''Korematsu v. the United States'', Black voted to uphold [[President Roosevelt]]'s mass arrests and incarceration of [[Japanese]] men, women, and children based on [[race]].

President Roosevelt called Democrat klansman Sen. [[Theodore Bilbo]] "a real friend of [[liberal]] [[government]]."<ref>[https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/new-deal-democrats-republican-party/ New Deal . . . Conservatives?] ''National Review''.

Not until the presidential election of 1960 when John Kennedy intervened for the release of Martin Luther King, who was jailed by local Democrats two weeks before the election in Atlanta following a non-violent protest, did the majority of Blacks begin voting Democratic ''en bloc''. The transition was solidified four years later when anti-Vietnam war candidate Barry Goldwater defied Republican Congressional leadership and voted with Southern Democrats to oppose the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Franklin Roosevelt's Georgia Warm Springs Polio Rehabilitation Center, founded by Roosevelt in the 1920s before he became president, maintained a Whites-only admission policy. This discrimination was sustained by a [[scientific]] argument about polio itself - that Blacks were not susceptible to the disease.<ref>''[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1854857/#!po=67.8125 Race and the Politics of Polio: Warm Springs, Tuskegee, and the March of Dimes]'', Naomi Rogers, PhD. American Journal of Public Health, May 2007.</ref> The center continued to practice [[racial discrimination]] into the 1960s until it was finally struck down by a federal Appeals Court ruling and changes made in the [[Civil Rights Act]].

====White privilege relief efforts====
:{{See also|New Deal and Fascism}}
New Deal relief efforts targeted FDR's white Democrat voter base. A Black Republican congressman attached a non-discrimination amendment, however Democrats put a ten percent quota system on Blacks who were suffering from higher incidence of poverty and unemployment than whites or the population in general. In more prosperous times 30 years later the War on Poverty was the New Deal in reverse, targeting Blacks with the assumption that all Blacks were poor and uneducated. Both the New Deal and Great Society were predicated on Marxist [[class warfare]].

Journalist John Flynn reported on a Senate investigation into cronyism and corruption in New Deal programs in Kentucky. Similar abuses were found throughout the nation. {{quotebox|"The WPA foremen were given a sheet upon which they had to report on the standing of the reliefers in the political campaign. It became a part of [[Harry Hopkins|Mr. [Harry] Hopkins]]' [[WPA]] organization in Kentucky to learn how many of the down-and-out had enough devotion to Franklin D. Roosevelt to be entitled to eat. It was not sufficient for an indigent Kentuckian to be just down and out and hungry. He had to believe that the President of the United States was his redeemer and had to be ready to register that belief at the polls. The reliefers were asked to sign papers pledging themselves to the election of the senior senator from Kentucky. They were given campaign buttons and told to wear them and there were instances where, if they refused, they were thrown off the WPA rolls. All this, of course, was in a Democratic primary where only Democrats could vote. But there were a lot of poor Republicans in Kentucky who couldn't vote in the Democratic primary so long as they were Republicans. So they were told to change their registration and become Democrats, or no WPA jobs for them.}}

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was born of pure [[progressive]] intentions and modeled after [[Hitler Youth]] programs ongoing in [[Germany]]: employment of young men for conservation work on public lands. Republican Rep. Oscar DePriest, the only black member of Congress, made sure that the 1933 legislation that established the CCC banned [[discrimination]] based on “race, color, or creed." Black enrollment in the CCC was capped at ten percent of total recruits–roughly equivalent to the proportion of blacks in the U.S. in 1930, but nowhere near proportional to the number of blacks eligible for relief during the [[Great Depression]]. Tens of thousands were turned away.

The U.S. Army controlled CCC camp administration and operations, and the [[Wilsonian]] policy of racial segregation transferred over to the new civilian workforce. Most of the CCC's quarter million African-American enrollees served in segregated companies and were unable to attain positions of authority.<ref>The Progressive Republican states of Wisconsin and Minnesota had integrated camps.</ref> Some Southern states categorically excluded blacks, arguing that they were needed for growing and harvesting cotton.<ref>[https://livingnewdeal.org/just-way-segregation-ccc-2/ Just the way society was.” Segregation in the CCC], December 28, 2014.</ref>

====Tuskegee syphilis experiment====
:{{See also|Tuskegee syphilis experiment}}
[[File:Tuskegee experiment.jpg|right|350px|thumb|Tuskegee experiment during the New Deal.<ref>https://ghionjournal.com/tuskegee-institute-study-2-0-targeting-african-americans/</ref>]]
The study was initially funded by the private Rosenwald Fund. However, The Fund ended its involvement due to lack of matching state funds, and the federal government under the heavily [[Democratic party|Democrat]] 73rd Congress took over the funding.<ref>https://www.slu.edu/law/academics/journals/health-law-policy/pdfs/issues/v1-i2/menikoff_article.pdf</ref> According to the 1995 Abstract to ''The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment: [[biotechnology]] and the [[administrative state]]:''
{{quotebox-float|"The central issue of the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment was [[property]]: property in the body and [[intellectual property]]. Once removed from the body, tissue and body fluids were not legally the property of the Tuskegee subjects. Consequently, there was not a direct relationship between a patient and research that used his sera. The Public Health Service (PHS) was free to exercise its property right in Tuskegee sera to develop serologic tests for syphilis with commercial potential. To camouflage the true meaning, the PHS made a distinction between direct clinical studies and indirect studies of tissue and body fluids. This deception caused all reviews to date to limit their examination to documents labeled by the PHS as directly related to the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment. This excluded other information in the public domain. Despite the absence of a clinical protocol, this subterfuge led each to falsely conclude that the Tuskagee Syphilis Experiment was a clinical study. Based on publications of indirect research using sera and cerebrospinal fluid, this article conceives a very history of the Tuskagee Syphilis Experiment. Syphilis could only cultivate in living beings. As in [[slavery]], the generative ability of the body made the Tuskegee subjects real property and gave untreated syphilis and the sera of the Tuskegee subjects immense commercial value. Published protocols exploited the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment to invent and commercialize biotechnology for the applied science of syphilis [[serology]].<ref>https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7869408/</ref>}}

{{quotebox-float|"the growing influence of [[eugenics]] and [[racial]] pathology at the time reinforced discriminative views on minorities. [[Progressivism]] was realized in the form of domestic reform and imperial pursuit at the same time. Major medical journals argued that [[blacks]] were inclined to have certain defects, especially [[sexually transmitted diseases]] like syphilis, because of their prodigal behavior and lack of hygiene. This kind of racial ideas were shared by the PHS [Public Health Service] officials who were in charge of the Tuskegee Study. Lastly, the PHS officials believed in continuing the experiment regardless of various social changes. They considered that black participants were not only poor but also ignorant of and even unwilling to undergo the treatment. When the exposure of the experiment led to the [[Senate]] investigation in 1973, the participating doctors of the PHS maintained that their study offered valuable contribution to the medical research. This paper argues that the combination of the efficiency of military medicine, [[progressive]] and imperial racial [[ideology]], and [[discrimination]] on [[African-American]]s resulted in the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment.}}

====Housing discrimination becomes law====
The [[Federal Housing Administration]] (FHA) was created by the Democratic congress in 1934 to insure loans for construction and repairs of homes. White middle-class families could buy suburban homes with little or no down payments and extended 30-year amortization schedules and their monthly charges were often less than rents the families had previously paid to housing authorities or private landlords. But the FHA had an explicit policy of not insuring suburban mortgages for African-Americans, according to writer Richard Rothstein on the ''The American Prospect'' website. In suburban New York's Nassau County, just east of Queens, Levittown was built in 1947 containing 17,500 mass-produced two-bedroom houses, requiring nothing down and monthly payments of about only $60. At the FHA's insistence, developer William Levitt did not sell homes to Blacks, and each deed included a prohibition of such resales in the future.<ref>https://www.npr.org/2017/05/03/526655831/a-forgotten-history-of-how-the-u-s-government-segregated-america</ref>

====Communist infiltration====

As early as Roosevelt's first 100 days, [[Harold Ware]] was a [[Communist Party USA]] (CPUSA) official in the [[Agricultural Adjustment Administration]] (AAA) and founded the [[Ware group]]. The group consisted of young lawyers and economists, had about 75 members in 1934 and was divided into about eight cells. The AAA was later found [[unconstitutional]], but by that time the Communist operatives had established jobs in the [[civil service system]] and were simply reassigned elsewhere in government. [[Alger Hiss]], [[Lee Pressman]], [[John Abt]], [[Charles Kramer]], [[Nathan Witt]], [[Henry Collins]], [[George Silverman]], [[Marion Bachrach]], [[John Herrmann]], [[Nathaniel Weyl]], [[Donald Hiss]] and [[Victor Perlo]] were all members. [[Harry Dexter White]], who was involved in the most auspicious policy [[subversion (political)|subversion]] as Director of the Division of Monetary Research in the [[Treasury Department]], was also affiliated with the group. The Ware group was the CPUSA's covert arm at this time. Each of these agents not only provided classified documents to Soviet intelligence, but was involved in political influence operations as well.

In 1934, a Congressional Investigation was held to examine statements by Dr. William A. Wirt, who headed the Office of Education which later became the [[Department of Education]]. Dr. Wirt had attended a dinner party with several [[Brain Trust]]ers at the home of his secretary, [[Alice Barrows]].<ref>A June 1945 [[Venona project]] decryption of Soviet [[KGB]] wartime cables from the Washington D.C. KGB Office to Moscow's Eighth Department, the political intelligence wing, relayed information on matters regarding Attorney General Francis Biddle.

Mary Van Kleek who headed the Russell Sage Foundation and also served on the Board of the National Council, visited Washington weekly to meet with Barrows and [[Greg Silvermaster|Nathan Gregory Silvermaster]].

During [[World War II]] Barrows was the Executive Secretary of the National Council of American-Soviet Friendship. This organization was declared in 1953 to be a [[Glossary of espionage terms#Fronts and cutouts|Communist front]] organization by the [[Subversive Activities Control Board]] (SACB). In its Findings of Fact, the SACB said the National Council of American-Soviet Friendship, "advances positions...markedly pro-Soviet and...anti-United States Government...is a Communist-action organization which has as its primary purpose to advance the objectives of the world Communist movement under the [[hegemony]] of the Soviet Union; it has the policy to support and defend the Soviet Union under any and all circumstances...We conclude that the National Council of American-Soviet Friendship, Inc., is substantially directed, dominated, and controlled by the Communist Party of the United States...and is primarily operated for the purpose of giving aid and support to...the Soviet Union, a Communist foreign government."

After [[World War II]], [[Moscow]] ordered all American communists to go underground and join the Democratic party. The story of [[Frank Marshall Davis]], Barack Obama's mentor,<ref>http://www.hawaiifreepress.com/main/AboutHFP/tabid/64/Default.aspx</ref> is intertwined with the Hawaii Democrats' rise to power.<ref>http://www.aim.org/aim-column/the-frank-marshall-davis-network-in-hawaii/</ref> Communists controlled the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU), the ILWU controlled the Hawaii Democratic Party, and in 1954, union-based election campaigns launched the Hawaii Democrats into control of the state legislature. Hawaii's first Democratic Governor Jack Burns said,
{{Cquote|Every guy in the ILWU was at one time or another a member of the Communist Party of America. This is where they got their [[community organizing|organizational information]] and how to organize, and how to bring groups together and how to create cells and how to make movements that are undetected by the bosses.}}
In 1959 Hawaii became a state.<ref>http://hawaii.gov/statehood/history</ref> when Burns captured the governor's office in 1962 the Democrats created a [[single party control]]led state unbroken for four decades until the election of [[Republican]] Governor [[Linda Lingle]] in the aftermath of the [[9/11 attacks]] in 2002. During those decades in some sessions sat as few as one Republican legislator. In 1976 the Democratic-controlled Hawaii State Legislature passed a resolution honoring [[Koji Ariyoshi]], a lieutenant of [[Mao Zedong]], the single biggest mass murderer of all time.

[[Michael Whitney Straight]] became a Communist Party member in the Stalin era and worked as a speechwriter for President Roosevelt. After WWII Straight took over as publisher of his family-owned ''[[The New Republic]]'' magazine, the liberal movement's flagship publication, where he hired former [[Vice President of the United States|U.S. Vice President]] and 1948 Progressive Party presidential candidate [[Henry A. Wallace]] as the magazine's editor. Straight later served as the deputy chairman of the Great Society [[National Endowment for the Arts]] program from 1969 to 1977 handing out taxpayer cash and federal grants to [[politically correct]] [[Cultural Marxist]] recipients.

====Immigration and refugees====

After [[Kristallnacht]] in November 1938, many Jews within Germany decided that it was time to leave. The ''S.S St. Louis'' carrying 937 passengers, most of them Jewish, set sail from Hamburg to [[Cuba]] on May 13, 1939. In Cuba the passengers were denied entrance without posting a $500 bond. A few dozen passengers disembarked. The ship set sail for Florida.

Once in Florida waters, Sec. of State [[Cordell Hull]] advised President Roosevelt to deny the Jews [[asylum]]. The [[U.S. Coast Guard]] and planes followed the ''St. Louis'' to prevent it from landing.<ref>https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/the-tragedy-of-s-s-st-louis</ref>
[[File:Instructions to japanese.png|right|250px|thumb]]
Many Jews had fled to Central and South America to escape [[Nazi]] persecution. When war broke out, these [[Latin America]]n countries did not want German Jews. They were deported to the United States where the Roosevelt administration was willing to hold them as German citizens in America [[concentration camp]]s. The Roosevelt administration traded them back to Germany in exchange for American civilians held in detention in Germany. The fate of these Jews is unknown.<ref>https://www.warhistoryonline.com/instant-articles/internment-of-germans.html</ref>

In 1943, Roosevelt told French military leaders at the Casablanca Conference that "the number of Jews engaged in the practice of the professions" in liberated North Africa "should be definitely limited", lest there be a recurrence of "the understandable complaints which the Germans bore towards the Jews in Germany."<ref>http://new.wymaninstitute.org/2013/08/a-presidents-private-thoughts-about-jews/</ref>

====Mass incarceration of minorities====
Wikipedia states that Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt set up "[[concentration camp]]s" during World War II while the United States was at war with [[Nazi Germany]]:
{{quotebox-float|"Executive Order 9066 was a United States presidential executive order signed and issued during World War II by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942. This order authorized the Secretary of War to prescribe certain areas as military zones, clearing the way for the incarceration of Japanese Americans, German Americans, and Italian Americans in U.S. [[concentration camps]]."<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_9066</ref>}}
====Supreme Court====
Franklin Roosevelt nominated [[James F. Byrnes]] to the Supreme Court and was confirmed by the Democrat Senate in 1941. The NAACP opposed his confirmation in a telegram to the White House:
{{quotebox|“If Senator Byrnes at any time in his long public career failed to take a position inimical to the human and citizenship rights of 13 million American Negro citizens, close scrutiny of his record fails to reveal it.”}}
As a member of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate for more than two decades, Byrnes personally blocked a Senate investigation of a South Carolina lynching and opposed federal anti-lynching legislation, insisting that “rape is responsible, directly and indirectly, for most of the lynching in America.”

Byrnes later held the office of Secretary of State under President Harry Truman. He remained a vocal opponent of integration throughout his term as South Carolina governor from 1951 to 1955. In his inaugural address, Byrnes proclaimed,
{{quotebox|“Whatever is necessary to continue the separation of the races in the schools of South Carolina is going to be done by the white people of the state. That is my ticket as a private citizen. It will be my ticket [as governor].”}}
A building and a professorship at the University of South Carolina bear his name, as do Byrnes Auditorium at Winthrop University, Byrnes Hall dormitory at Clemson University, and James F. Byrnes High School in Duncan, South Carolina.<ref>https://segregationinamerica.eji.org/report/segregation-forever-leaders.html</ref>

===Truman to Kennedy: 1945–1963===

Harry Truman took over unexpectedly in 1945, and the rifts inside the party that Roosevelt had papered over began to emerge. Former Vice President [[Henry A. Wallace]], a progressive, denounced Truman as a war-monger for his anti-Soviet programs, the [[Truman Doctrine]], [[Marshall Plan]], and [[NATO]]. By cooperating with internationalist Republicans, Truman succeeded in defeating isolationists on the right and pro-Soviets on the left to establish a [[Cold War]] program that lasted until the fall of Communism in 1991. Wallace supporters and fellow travelers of the far left were pushed out of the party and the CIO in 1946-48 by young anti-Communists like [[Hubert Humphrey]], [[Walter Reuther]], and [[Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.]]. [[Hollywood]] emerged in the 1940s as an important new base in the party, led by movie-star politicians such as [[Ronald Reagan]], who at this point in time strongly supported Roosevelt and Truman. Reagan was elected president of the [[Screen Actors Guild]] and left the party over communist infiltration of his union.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=I4-UBnd20K4C&pg=PA155 Ronald Reagan in Hollywood: Movies and Politics]</ref>

By October 1946, the G.I. Bill had placed 6,500 former soldiers in nonfarm jobs in Mississippi; 86 percent of the skilled and semiskilled jobs were filled by whites, 92 percent of the unskilled ones by Blacks. In New York and northern New Jersey, fewer than 100 of the 67,000 mortgages insured by the G.I. Bill supported home purchases by nonwhites. Discrimination continued as well in elite Northern colleges. The University of Pennsylvania, along with Columbia the least discriminatory of the Ivy League colleges, enrolled only 46 Black students in its student body of 9,000 in 1946. The traditional Black colleges did not have places for an estimated 70,000 Black veterans in 1947. At the same time, white universities were doubling their enrollments and prospering with the infusion of public and private funds, and of students with their G.I. benefits.<ref>https://atlantablackstar.com/2015/02/04/9-ways-franklin-d-roosevelts-new-deal-purposely-excluded-blacks-people/5/</ref>

On the right, the Republicans blasted Truman's domestic policies. "Had Enough?" was the winning slogan as Republicans recaptured Congress in 1946. Many party leaders were ready to dump Truman, but they lacked an alternative. The party was split three ways. [[Henry Wallace]], who Roosevelt threw off the ticket in 1944 ran as a [[Progressive]] while [[J. Strom Thurmond]], who remained a staunch supporter of FDR split off and ran as a [[Dixiecrat]]. Republican overconfidence led to many failing to show up at the polls and Truman was reelected in a stunning surprise. However, all of Truman's Fair Deal proposals, such as universal health care were defeated by the [[Conservative Coalition]] in Congress. His [[nationalization]] of the steel industry was reversed by the Supreme Court.
[[File:FDR Truman and KKK.jpeg|right|250px|thumb]]
In foreign policy, Europe was occupied but divided between the Western alliance and the Communist bloc as troubles mounted in Asia. American troops were now facing down the New Deal's Stalinist allies in the streets of Berlin. Kuomintang China, a major ally in the war against [[Japan]], fell to the Stalinist communist bloc in 1949. Truman, under the [[UN]] banner, entered the [[Korean War]] without formal Congressional approval—the last time a president would ever do so. When the war stalemated in 1951 because of Truman's reluctance to use nuclear weapons, he fired General [[Douglas MacArthur]], a hero to conservatives. Republicans blasted Truman's failure to stop Communist gains in Asia. A series of petty scandals among friends and buddies of Truman further tarnished his image, allowing [[Dwight Eisenhower]] and the Republicans in 1952 to crusade against "Korea, Communism and Corruption." Truman dropped out of the presidential race early in 1952, leaving no obvious successor. The convention nominated [[Adlai Stevenson]] in 1952 and 1956, only to see him overwhelmed by two Eisenhower landslides. Stevenson, a New Deal liberal, adopted the traditional Democratic Southern Strategy of choosing a Southern white male for vice president in both elections to appeal to Southern voters, who regularly would not allow African Americans to register to vote.

====Voter suppression and election fraud====
Two term New Dealer Sen. Theodore Bilbo faced three primary challengers running for a third term and told a group of supporters,
{{quotebox-float|“I’m calling on every red-blooded American who believes in the superiority and integrity of the white race to get out and see that no n***** votes.”}}
In true Democrat tradition, Bilbo won the rigged primary election with 51% in a four-way contest. The Republicans won back control of the Senate that year in the 1946 general election and refused to seat Bilbo as his comments about Democrat [[voter suppression]] to rig the election became more widely known. He died 7 months later, unable to take his seat, while the Senate was still investigating.<ref>http://www.mississippihistory.org/sites/default/files/bilbo.pdf</ref>

In 1948, [[Lyndon B. Johnson]] won an election for [[U.S. Senate]] from the state of [[Texas]] by [[Democrat election fraud#1948 Texas Senate|stealing the election]], according even to historians sympathetic to him. Johnson ran against former governor [[Coke Stevenson]]; neither candidate won a majority of the votes in the election, which under Texas law forced a runoff between Johnson and Stevenson. Johnson then claimed an 87-vote victory over Stevenson in the runoff, which was fraudulent.<ref>See eg Robert A Caro Master of the ''Senate Means of Assent''</ref> Johnson's partner in [[crime]] in the election theft, [[Abe Fortas]], whom Johnson later appointed to the [[Supreme Court of the United States]] and was confirmed by a two-thirds majority of the Democrat Senate, is the only Supreme Court Justice to have resigned over corruption charges.

====Brown vs. Board of Education====
:{{See also|Brown vs. Board of Education}}
The election of a Republican for the first time in 20 years was momentous. Eisenhower appointed Republican California Governor [[Earl Warren]] as [[Chief Justice]] of the Supreme Court. All the other members had been appointed by Roosevelt and Truman who believed courts should defer to the policymaking prerogatives of the White House and Congress. Warren convened a meeting of the justices and presented to them the simple argument that the only reason to sustain segregation was a deep-rooted belief in the inferiority of African-Americans. In ''[[Brown v. Topeka Board of Education]]'', Warren produced a unanimous decision that said: {{quotebox|"Segregation of white and colored children in public schools has a detrimental effect upon the colored children. The impact is greater when it has the sanction of the law, for the policy of separating the races is usually interpreted as denoting the inferiority of the Negro group…Any language in contrary to this finding is rejected. We conclude that in the field of public education the doctrine of ‘separate but equal’ has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.”}}
In Congress, the powerful duo of House Speaker [[Sam Rayburn]] and Senate Majority leader [[Lyndon B. Johnson]] held the party together, often by compromising with Eisenhower. After the Little Rock Crisis of 1957, the party made dramatic gains in the 1958 midterms and seemed to have a permanent lock on Congress. Indeed, Democrats had majorities in the House every election from 1930 to 1992 (except 1946 and 1952). Most southern Congressmen were conservative Democrats, however, and they usually worked with conservative Republicans. The result was a [[Conservative Coalition]] that blocked practically all socialist domestic legislation from 1937 to the 1970s, except for a brief spell 1964–65, when Johnson neutralized its power.
[[File:John Kennedy texas.png|left|300px|thumb|John Kennedy was elected using the same Southern Strategy FDR did by putting a Texan on the ticket.<ref>[https://www.jstor.org/stable/23535517?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents John F.

The nomination of [[John F. Kennedy]] in 1960 energized the Catholic population, which jammed motorcades and turned out in heavy numbers (over 80% voted for Kennedy), while also causing a backlash among white Protestants (over 70% of whom voted for Republican candidate [[Richard Nixon]]). Reaching beyond the traditional Irish, German, Italian and Polish Catholic ethnics, Viva Kennedy set out to mobilize the previously passive Latino vote, and it perhaps provided the margin of victory for Kennedy in Texas and New Mexico. His brother, [[Robert Kennedy]], who managed the campaign, opposed the outreach to Black voters and sided with traditional Southern racists of the New Deal coalition.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=kLspqSlNjfYC&pg=PA309&lpg=PA309&dq=three+Southern+governors+told+us+that+if+Jack+supported+Jimmy+Hoffa,+Nikita+Khrushchev,+or+Martin+Luther+King,+they+would+throw+their+states+to+Nixon&source=bl&ots=9PCWxfix0P&sig=ACfU3U2rlCOdSQJLr7w1x8AhpeJODSmG6w&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj58fD9uIngAhWMoYMKHRY0CPAQ6AEwCnoECAYQAQ#v=onepage&q=three%20Southern%20governors%20told%20us%20that%20if%20Jack%20supported%20Jimmy%20Hoffa%2C%20Nikita%20Khrushchev%2C%20or%20Martin%20Luther%20King%2C%20they%20would%20throw%20their%20states%20to%20Nixon&f=false Jack Kennedy: Elusive Hero], [[Chris Matthews]], Simon and Schuster, Nov 6, 2012, p. 309.</ref> Bobby Kennedy was furious with campaign aides for talking with King, and felt it would cost them the election.

Kennedy's victory reinvigorated the party. His youth, vigor and intelligence caught the popular imagination. In foreign policy he was strongly anti-Communist, and promptly launched an invasion of Castro's Cuba; it failed badly. A few new programs like the Peace Corps provided pacifists with an alternative to two years of military service in the peacetime draft. In terms of civil rights legislation, his proposals were all cautious and incremental. In three years he was unable to pass any significant civil rights legislation.

Kennedy's election did mark the coming of age of the Catholic component of the New Deal Coalition. After 1964 middle-class Catholics started voting Republicans in the same proportion as their Protestant neighbors. Except for the Chicago of [[Richard J. Daley]], the last of the Democratic machines faded away. His involvement in Vietnam proved momentous, for his successor Lyndon Johnson decided to stay, and double the investment, and double the bet again and again until over 500,000 American soldiers were fighting in that small country.

====Southern Manifesto====
:{{Main article|Southern Manifesto}}
The Southern Manifesto was a document issued in response to the Supreme Court's 1954 ruling ''[[Brown v. Board of Education]]'', which integrated public schools. School segregation laws were some of the most enduring and best-known of the [[Jim Crow]] laws that characterized the American South at the time. All but twenty-eight of the 138 southern Democrat members of Congress signed this Southern Manifesto, including 19 of the Majority Democrat Senators.<ref>https://d1lexza0zk46za.cloudfront.net/history/am-docs/southern-manifesto.pdf</ref> [[John Sparkman]], 1952 Vice Presidential candidate as part of the Democrat's Southern Strategy, [[J. William Fulbright]] mentor of Bill Clinton, Richard Brevard Russell of the [[Warren Commission]], [[Sam Ervin]] of the [[Watergate]] Committee, [[Hale Boggs]] (the father of [[NPR]]'s Cokie Roberts), and [[Wilbur Mills]] were all signatories. It reads in part: {{quotebox|"This unwarranted exercise of power by the Court, contrary to the Constitution, is creating chaos and confusion in the States principally affected. It is destroying the amicable relations between the white and Negro races that have been created through 90 years of patient effort by the good people of both races. It has planted hatred and suspicion where there has been heretofore friendship and understanding....We commend the motives of those States which have declared the intention to resist forced integration by any lawful means."}} [[File:Little Rock Nine.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Republican President Dwight Eisenhower called out the 101st Airborne to protect Black school children from Democrat protesters after a Democrat governor refused to implement a desegregation order written by the Republican Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.]]

The Southern Manifesto was signed on a large mahogany conference table in Sen. [[John Stennis]]' office which Stennis used as his desk and referred to as "the flagship of the [[Confederacy]]." The table was used by segregationist and co-signer of the Southern Manifesto Sen. [[Richard Russell]] before his retirement. When Stennis retired in 1988, Sen. [[Joseph Biden]] took over Stennis' office, including the conference table. When Sen. Biden was elected vice president in 2008, Biden had the flagship of the Confederacy moved into the Vice President's residence.

One of the first challenges to ''Brown v. Board of Education'' occurred when Democrat Governor [[Orval E. Faubus]] ordered the Arkansas National Guard to prevent African-American students from enrolling at [[Little Rock]] Central High School. Central High was an all-white school. Faubus ordered the troops to "accomplish the mission of maintaining or restoring law and order and to preserve the peace, health, safety and security of the citizens." A force of 289 soldiers was assembled. The commander told nine black students, six girls and thee boys ages 15–17 years old who were attempting to enter the school, to return home. The standoff continued for three weeks. Little Rock Democrat mayor Woodrow Wilson Mann appealed to President Eisenhower to help end the deadlock. Eisenhower sent the [[101st Airborne Division]] to federalized the entire 10,000-member Arkansas National Guard. The students were allowed to enroll.

Faubus was re-elected in 1958 with 82.5% of the vote over a Republican challenger. Faubus ordered the closure of four public high schools that year, preventing both black and white students from attending school while seeking a two and a half year delay on de-segregation until January 1961 in Federal Court when there would be a possibility of a Democratic president.

====1957 Civil Rights Act====

The 1957 Civil Rights Act was the first federal civil rights legislation passed by the United States Congress since the Republicans passed the Civil Rights Act of 1875. Johnson told Sen. [[Richard Russell]], {{quotebox|"These Negroes, they're getting pretty [[uppity]] these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don't move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there'll be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there'll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It'll be Reconstruction all over again."<ref>Said to Senator Richard Russell, Jr. (D-GA) regarding the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

===Johnson, war and riots===
:{{See also|Johnson administration}}
The New Deal Coalition began to fracture as union and religious leaders demanded support for [[civil rights]], upsetting the party's traditional base of Democrat segregationists who themselves became dependent on government largess. In 1948 the party platform for the first time in its history showed some support for civil rights. The Republicans passed civil rights legislation with the [[13th Amendment]], [[14th Amendment]], [[15th Amendment]], [[Emancipation Proclamation]], the Civil Rights Act of 1875, and first passed anti-lynching legislation in 1922, which Democrats killed by [[filibuster]]s.<ref>https://www.nationalreview.com/2012/05/party-civil-rights-kevin-d-williamson/</ref>

Contrary to popular Democrat mythology, Democrat Governor [[George Wallace]] won [[the South]] in 1968 in a three-way contest against Nixon and Humphrey. There was no Nixon "[[Southern Strategy]]." The South continued to reject Yankee liberals (Humphrey in 1968, McGovern in 1972, Mondale in 1984, Dukakis in 1988, Kerry in 2004). At the state and local level, the Republicans made slow but steady gains. As racism in the South declined, Republicans in the South increased.<ref>https://youtu.be/ol7OMGBDMao</ref>

The South became competitive in presidential politics as early as the 1920s and by 1980 gave strong support to Republican Ronald Reagan, rejecting northern liberal candidates.<ref>https://www.prageru.com/videos/why-did-democratic-south-become-republican</ref> Democrats responded with a new Southern Strategy - putting Southerners at the top of the ticket - Carter in 1976 and 1980, Clinton in 1992 and 1996, Gore in 2000, and calling Yankee Republicans "racist."

By the 1990s the GOP was competitive at the state and local level throughout the South. The Democrats made gains in the west through [[illegal immigration]],<ref>https://cis.org/Report/Injustice-All-Excerpt-Sellout-Inside-Story-President-Clintons-Impeachment</ref> converting [[California]] to a Democratic stronghold and gaining in fast-growing Arizona and Nevada. The Northeast became more and more a Democratic enclave, especially after 2006 when numerous Republican moderates were defeated for reelection. The Midwest remained a battleground. The Democrats made strong gains in Illinois but slipped a little in Minnesota.

====1964 Convention: Mississippi Freedom Party====
:{{See also|Black history}}
The Mississippi Freedom Party was organized by African Americans to challenge the establishment Democratic Party, which allowed participation only by whites. The party ran a slate of delegates with close to 80,000 people casting ballots.<ref>[http://www.crmvet.org/tim/tim63b.htm#1963msballot Freedom Ballot in MS] ~ Civil Rights Movement Veterans</ref> The party hoped to replace the Regular Democrats as the official Mississippi delegation at the 1964 Democratic National Convention.

At the convention the party challenged the Regular Democrats' right to be seated, claiming that the Regular Democrats were illegally elected in a segregated process that violated both party regulations and [[federal law]].<ref>[http://www.crmvet.org/disc/mfdp.htm The Mississippi Movement & the MFDP] ~ Civil Rights Movement Veterans</ref> The Equal Protection Clause had been on the books for nearly 100 years already. The Democratic Party referred the challenge to the credentials committee,<ref>{{cite book

Hamilton. ''Black Power: The Politics of Liberation,'' (New York: Random House, 1967), p. 90.</ref>

After that, most observers and pundits thought the credentials committee were ready to unseat the Regular Democrats and seat the Freedom Party delegates in their place. But some Democrats from other states threatened to leave the convention and bolt the party if the Regular Democrats were unseated. President Johnson wanted a united convention and feared losing support. To ensure his victory in November, Johnson maneuvered to prevent the Mississippi Freedom Democrats from replacing the all-white Regular Democrats.

Two future Democrat Presidential nominees, [[Hubert Humphrey]] and [[Walter Mondale]], denied Blacks [[equal protection]] and made a mockery of the [[civil rights movement]].<ref>https://www.minnpost.com/eric-black-ink/2011/05/sad-story-humphreys-role-1964-democratic-convention/</ref> Johnson held a private meeting with Humphrey, Mondale, Roy Wilkins, [[Andrew Young]], [[United Auto Workers]] President [[Walter Reuther]] and [[Martin Luther King Jr.]] A plan was hatched to offer the Freedom Democrats two non-voting ''At-Large'' seats with observer status, rather than replace the all-white delegation which had been undemocratically and illegally elected.<ref>Mills, Kay, ''This Little Light of Mine: The Life of Fannie Lou Hamer,'' (New York: Plume, 1994), p. 5.</ref> Johnson arrogated to himself the right to pick which two, and Johnson chose one white and one black. Johnson dispatched Humphrey and Mondale and ordered them to make sure that “that illiterate woman," Fannie Lou Hamer would never be a delegate. Dr. King protested and was told by Reuther to shut up.

The offer was rejected, but Humphrey and Mondale remained powerhouse liberals in the Democratic party for another 20 years.

====Great Society====

By the 1960s, the [[Preamble]] clause of the [[Constitution]], "to promote the general welfare," was re-interpreted to justify massive [[welfare|wealth transfer]] programs under the rubric of "Welfare."

African Americans, who were excluded from many New Deal programs, now were the direct targets of the [[Great Society]]. Single Black women could receive cash payments to have children outside wedlock.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/1983/11/20/us/breakup-of-black-family-imperils-gains-of-decades.html</ref> Johnson and the Democrat's intended to capture the nation's 20 million African-Americans as a dependent and loyal voting bloc within the Democratic party, now that a bi-partisan majority of Republicans and Democrats smashed the Democratic party's stranglehold on the South, which had denied Black voter participation for a century. Great Society programs had a devastating impact on Black families and communities in the following decades.<ref>https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/262726/how-liberal-welfare-state-destroyed-black-america-john-perazzo</ref>

The term, "poverty" became a [[dog whistle]] for "black," and the term "rich" became a codeword for "white." [[Class warfare]] and [[Cultural Marxism]] became the focus in [[public education]].<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/1989/10/25/us/education-the-mainstreaming-of-marxism-in-us-colleges.html</ref>

Dr. [[Thomas Sowell]] observed that "despite the grand myth that black economic progress began or accelerated with the passage of the civil rights laws and "war on poverty" programs of the 1960s, the cold fact is that the poverty rate among blacks fell from 87% in 1940 to 47% by 1960."<ref>[https://www.creators.com/read/thomas-sowell/11/14/a-legacy-of-liberalism A Legacy of Liberalism], By Dr. Thomas Sowell, November 18, 2014.</ref> The war on poverty increased the percentage of mothers and children dependent on the federal government to keep them above the poverty line. Although the number of dependent people had been declining for decades before the "war on poverty" began, this downward trend reversed itself and had a devastating effect on the black family structure, and black communities overall. Fathers were driven out of the home so that females could meet eligibility requirements, young males' marriage and family prospects precipitously dropped, out of wedlock births and street gangs, crime, and violence proliferated in coming decades.

Overall federal spending on programs for the poor escalated as eligibility rules for [[welfare]] and [[Social Security]] were loosened, the size of benefits was increased, and unemployment insurance was made more available to more people, and for longer periods of time. The number of people receiving [[public assistance]] more than doubled from 1960 to 1977. The dollar value of public [[housing]] rose nearly five-fold in a decade and the amount spent on [[food stamps]] rose more than ten-fold. All government-provided in-kind benefits increased about eight-fold from 1965 to 1969 and more than twenty-fold by 1974. Federal spending on such social welfare programs not only rose in dollar terms and in real terms, but also as a percentage of the nation's gross national product, going from 8 percent of GNP in 1960 to 16 percent by 1974. A classic example of income transfer or "redistribution of wealth".

As for urban ghetto [[riot]]s, they raged across the country during this era. [[Newark]] Mayor Hugh J. Addonizio (D) called for a federal investigation of the city's anti-poverty agency which received Great Society funding to determine if it had, in any way, contributed to the city's riots in which 26 persons were killed.<ref>https://library.cqpress.com/cqalmanac/document.php?id=cqal67-1313423</ref> More funding was approved anyway. Later, the strife declined sharply after the beginning of the Nixon administration, which opposed the whole ‘war on poverty’ approach and eventually abolished the Office of Economic Opportunity, which had been the spearhead of this program. Still later, during the eight years of the Reagan presidency–supposedly the nadir of neglect–major urban riots became virtually extinct.

Eventually, however, even official poverty began to rise, so that a larger number of people were in poverty in 1992 than were in poverty in 1964, when the "war on poverty" began.<ref>n21 U.S. Bureau of Census, Current Population Records, Series P60-185 (Washington, D.C. General Printing Office 1993) p.ix. (p. 13-14)</ref> By 1992, more than half of all [[black]] adults had never been married, quite aside from an additional 16 percent who had been either [[divorce]]d or [[widow]]ed. By contrast, only 21 percent of [[white]] adults had never been married. More than half of all black children–57 percent–were living with only one parent and another 7.5 percent were not living with either parent. Thus, only a little more than a third of black children were living in traditional two-parent households. Of 190,000 black children whose parents were currently still teenagers, only 5,000 were living with both parents.<ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1978/06/25/out-of-wedlock-black-children-draw-a-community-together/7c431555-27fa-483a-acdb-0ee09ea4acbe/</ref> As street gangs and crime proliferated, Democrats responded with mass incarceration of Blacks.

====Civil disturbances====
[[File:View-of-moratorium-demonstrators-p.jpg|thumb|190px|Democrats protested the war they started. [[North Vietnam]]ese and Cuban communist flags can be seen in the image.]]
After the chaos of the 1968 Democratic National Convention, where [[Hubert Humphrey]] did not appear on any primary ballot but took the nomination amid protests and riots, the Democratic party attempted to reform its nomination process.

With the assassination of [[Robert Kennedy]] who was a leading critic of [[President Johnson]]'s war policy, Humphrey was regarded as a war hawk who would continue President Johnson's [[Vietnam War]] policy. Johnson dropped out of the race due to growing unpopularity of himself and the war. Sen. [[George McGovern]] made himself heir of Bobby Kennedy's dovish stance. Most states at the time used closed caucuses and state conventions, controlled by New Deal segregationist “party regulars” and insiders to select national delegates. Machine caucuses in several states accumulated enough delegates for Humphrey to win nomination without appearing on any primary ballot. In the aftermath of the loss to [[Richard Nixon]], Humphrey agreed to a reform commission and appointed one of his lieutenants, Donald Fraser, to co-chair the [[McGovern-Fraser Commission]].

Chairman George McGovern wanted to "open up" the process of delegate selection and strip figures like [[Chicago]] Mayor [[Richard J. Daley]]<ref>[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Gj9TkjL87Rk Ribicoff vs Daley at the Democratic Convention 1968] youtube.com</ref> of their ability to select delegates for the upcoming 1972 convention. Daley felt particularly betrayed, having stuffed the ballot box for the Democrats and the Kennedy's to rob Richard Nixon of the presidency in 1960,<ref>[http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=425967 Did Daley rob Nixon of the Presidency in 1960?]</ref> to then be accused by [[liberal]] Democrats of "gestapo tactics" in the streets of Chicago.

McGovern was critical of the insider establishment's way of choosing a nominee and wanted to switch over to primaries. Donald Fraser was a lieutenant in the [http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.5749/j.ctttsfmc Humphrey & Mondale Democratic Farmer-Labor (DFL) machine] which dominated [[Minnesota]] where caucuses are popular. So a compromise was sought. The general feeling was that party insiders such as Mayor Daley and Southern Democrat bosses controlled too much power and through state party caucuses and conventions were able to impose their candidates on a national convention.

Shortly after [[Sen. Richard Russell]]'s passing, the Democrat Senate renamed the Senate Office Building the Russell Office Building in commemoration of the man who was instrumental in their fight to keep [[segregation]] alive during his five decades of leadership in the Democrat party.

===Desegregation: the McGovern/Biden era===
:{{See also|Civil Rights in the Biden era}}
In [[Nixon]]'s landslide 49 state re-election of 1972, [[Massachusetts]] was the only state that remained solidly in the Democratic camp. Black parents filed a desegregation lawsuit the same year, and the [[NAACP]] argued the case. According to ''Politico'', nowhere did the sentiment of people opposed to desegregation play out more dramatically than in [[Boston]]. In mid 1974, a federal judge found that 20 years after ''Brown v. Board'', Boston officials deliberately kept the schools segregated, and that the city must integrate at once. He drew up a busing plan. Black students from Roxbury would attend South Boston High School, while Irish Americans from Southie would board buses to Roxbury.

The first buses rolled through Boston in September 1974—and racial violence engulfed the city. White mobs hurled bricks at school buses with terrified black children inside. Then, on October 7, a [[Haiti]]an immigrant was beaten savagely by a white mob in South Boston. In the coming months, the list of casualties would grow. The city became a cauldron of racial hatred.

Each year after passage of the 1965 Civil Rights Act up until 1977, the Democratic controlled House passed at least one new law designed to restrain school integration—often in the guise of anti-busing legislation. Until 1974, the Senate rejected those bills. But as white resistance to busing escalated in many cities across the country, the House Democrats anti-busing majority began to pull more Democratic senators to their side.

In 1975, Sen. [[Joseph Biden]] proposed an amendment that gutted Title VI of the [[1964 Civil Rights Act]], which enabled the federal government to cut off funding to school districts that refused to integrate. ''[[Politico]]'' writes of the whole sordid affair, {{quotebox|Biden morphed into a leading anti-busing crusader—all the while continuing to insist that he supported the goal of school desegregation, he only opposed busing as the means to achieve that end.

Biden stormed that bastion...<ref name="politico.com">https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/08/joe-biden-integration-school-busing-120968_full.html</ref>}} A Boston NAACP leader said, “An anti-busing amendment is an anti-desegregation amendment, and an anti-desegregation amendment is an anti-black amendment.” Republican Sen. [[Edward Brooke]], the first black senator ever to be directly elected, called Biden's amendment “the greatest symbolic defeat for [[civil rights]] since 1964.” Brooke accused Biden of leading an assault on integration.

[[File:Democratic voter suppression.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Democratic voter suppression, 1963.]]
====Voter suppression====
The McGovern-Fraser Commission required state parties to develop written rules and post uniform statewide notification of the date, time, and location of precinct caucus meetings or party primary elections. There was a common practice in some Southern states such as Mississippi were all-white local party bosses held meetings in obscure locations so that Black majorities in a county or district were unaware of the time and place of party elections. Although many provisions the commission brought about were undone in the early 1980s by Walter Mondale and Ted Kennedy, several provisions have remained. Prior to McGovern-Fraser, several states had no written guidelines governing party conventions, caucuses, and the delegate selection process at each level, and were based mostly on local tradition, which often meant cronyism, discrimination, voter suppression and the boss's rule. The system had been used effectively by Democrats in their [[voter suppression]] of Blacks for over 100 years.

The Commission rewrote the rules to rig McGovern's nomination. The 1972 Credentials Committee at the convention under the McGovern-Fraser reforms replaced Daley's contingent of the [[Illinois]] delegation with a group sent by [[Jesse Jackson]]<ref>See U.S. Supreme Court ''[https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/419/477/ Cousins v. Wigoda]'', 419 U.S. 477 (1975)</ref> and also replaced a delegation from [[Mississippi]] with another group.

After the 1972 election, Congresswoman [[Barbara Mikulski]] was asked by the [[Democratic National Committee]] (DNC) to chair the [[Mikulski Commission]] to review and make recommendations on how effective the pre-convention McGovern-Fraser reforms rules were. According to [[CNN]], the commission
{{quotebox-float|replaced the demographic quotas of 1972 with [[affirmative action]] requirements to increase participation by women, blacks and other minorities. (However, this specific plan had the OPPOSITE effect, decreasing the proportion of women from 38% in 1972 to 36% in 1976. The proportion of blacks declined from 15% in 1972 to 7% in 1976. After 1976, quotas for women delegates were reimposed.) PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION, the distribution of delegates among candidates to reflect their share of the primary or caucus vote, was mandated by party rules.<ref>[https://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1996/conventions/chicago/facts/rules/index.shtml All Politics, CNN Time, Facts.] Sources: ‘’The National Journal’’, August 23, 1980; ‘’Congressional Quarterly's Guide to U.S. Elections’’; also quoted in ‘’Democratic party convention rule changes’’, academic.regis.edu , below.</ref>}}

The Mikulski Commission went further than McGovern-Fraser, proposing to bind rules on state parties which would restrict delegate selection in primaries or caucuses to "Democratic voters only who publicly declare their [[party affiliation|party preference]] and have that preference publicly recorded" (Rule 2A). This required a party registration process before being able to vote in a Democratic primary. The new rule put pressure on parties to close their primaries to outside participation and brought about "same-day registration"<ref>See for example Kansas rules. [https://www.sos.ks.gov/forms/elections/Voting_Rules_for_Primary_Elections.pdf Voting Rules for Primary Elections]. www.sos.ks.gov</ref> in states with open primaries mandated by state law. The DNC incorporated these recommendations into the Delegate Selection Rules for the 1976 Convention. A temporary exemption where state legislatures had no party identification requirement to participate in a primary election was included. Opponents and dissenters felt this new rule violated the integrity of the secret ballot at public polling stations.

The Mikulski Commission did away with the secret ballot and required a public declaration in front of the election judges or on registration forms and a party-specific ballot given to the voter to cast.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_elections_in_the_United_States#Types_of_primaries]</ref> Now in most states a non-partisan primary voter who wishes to vote for a Democrat for President and a Republican for Senate experiences voter suppression and denial.

====Biden Amendment repeal of portions of the Civil Rights Act====

:{{See also|Segregation|Systemic racism}}
In 1972 Delaware Sen. Joseph Biden re-cycled the [[John C. Calhoun#positive good|racist rhetoric of John C. Calhoun]], arguing that school segregation was a "positive good" for Blacks. Calhoun famously laid out his doctrine of separation of the races as a civilizing force among Blacks which became Democrat talking points before the [[Dred Scott]] decision, throughout the [[Civil War]], [[Reconstruction]], the [[Jim Crow]] era, and the [[New Deal]]. In a Democrat [[filibuster]] on the floor of the [[Senate]], Calhoun famously said:
[[File:Biden segregation.png 1718483346.png|left|350px|thumb|Biden called segregation "a matter of Black pride" and pushed for a [[Constitutional Amendment]] to outlaw Court ordered de-segregation.<ref name="politico.com">https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/08/joe-biden-integration-school-busing-120968_full.html</ref>]]
{{quotebox-float|"I hold that in the present state of civilization, where two races of different origin, and distinguished by color, and other physical differences, as well as intellectual, are brought together, the relation now existing in the slaveholding States between the two, is, instead of an evil, a good—a positive good."}}
Biden resurrected the idea that segregation was "for their own good" and that Blacks were grateful for it.
{{Quotebox-float|“I think the concept of busing … that we are going to [[integrate]] people so that they all have the same access and they learn to grow up with one another and all the rest, is a rejection of the whole movement of black pride, a rejection of the entire black awareness concept, where black is beautiful, black culture should be studied; and the cultural awareness of the importance of their own identity, their own individuality.”<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/read-the-transcript-of-the-october-1975-npr-interview-with-sens-joe-biden-and-edward-brooke</ref>}}
In the 21st century Biden tried to separate himself from his previous racist statements on school integration:
{{quotebox-float|"Poor kids are just as smart as white kids."}}
Biden led a coalition of segregationists that was opposed by Republican Sen. [[Edward Brooke]], the first [[African American]] senator elected since Democrats forced the end of [[Reconstruction]] after the [[American Civil War|Civil War]]. National Public Radio's David Ensor asked Biden, "What about a constitutional amendment? Isn’t that what you’re gonna have to end up supporting if you want to stop court ordered busing, too?" Biden responded,
{{Quotebox-float|"That would clearly do it. I’m hopeful, and I have — now that I have some sort of new allies in this area, it’s become respectable now for [[liberal]]s to at least say publicly what they’ve been saying in private, that busing doesn’t work. We are trying to figure out whether or not we can come up with an innovative piece of legislation which would limit the remedy, and I don’t — honestly don’t know whether we can come up with something constitutional. And if we can’t, I will not in an attempt to eliminate busing violate the Constitution. I won’t do that. The only way, if I’m gonna go at it, I’m gonna go at it through a Constitutional Amendment if it can’t be done through a piece of legislation."}}
Ensor reported that Biden proposed renewing segregation because busing "wasn't working" ("wasn't working" to the electoral advantage of Democrats and not necessarily to the cause of equal rights for Blacks), and Biden was afraid that older liberal colleagues were blind to how Black separatists felt about their children being bused to [[white]] schools.

{{quotebox-float|‘Abourezk, you **********, if I ever vote for another one of your bills, it'll be a cold day in hell.'

‘Calm down, Joe,' I told him, ‘You're eventually gonna thank me for doing this.'

A few days later, Biden came into the scheduled committee meeting, this time with a broad, friendly grin aimed directly at me.

‘Jesus, Abourezk, you were right,' he said. ‘I am gonna thank you. You should see the Delaware newspapers—big front-page headlines saying, ‘Biden Battles Liberals in Washington.'

''The New York Times'' published a lengthy story on Biden's advocacy of segregation. In a 1977 congressional hearing related to anti-desegregation orders, Biden emphasized,

Republican Sen. [[Edward Brooke]], the first black senator ever to be popularly elected, called Biden's amendment “the greatest symbolic defeat for [[civil rights]] since 1964.” Brooke accused Biden of leading an assault on integration.

Prof. Ronnie Dunn said opposition to busing was motivated by [[racism]] and that without the court-ordered policy Biden probably would not have become vice president in 2009. “What I find ironic is that [Biden] was the vice president under a president who, if it hadn’t been for the social interaction that occurred during the era of busing, I argue we likely would not have seen the election of Barack Obama." Dunn, an Urban Studies professor at Cleveland State University and author of the book ''Boycotts, Busing, & Beyond'', said Biden made the case in favor of maintaining segregation. "That was an argument against desegregation.” Dunn said Biden must address the issue if he runs for president. “People have to be held accountable."<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/joe-biden-embraced-segregation-in-1975-claiming-it-was-a-matter-of-black-pride</ref>

When Biden announced his candidacy ''Politico'' attempted to poo-poo and explain away Biden and liberal Democrat racism with a back-handed slap at [[school vouchers]] for minority students, which liberal elites have strenuously opposed ever since the Biden Amendment passed:

{{quotebox-float|School desegregation, as part of a broader suite of civil rights reforms, was once as a vital component of the Democratic Party platform. Yet since the 1970s, Democrats, in the face of concerted white backlash, have largely accommodated themselves to increasing segregation in public schools across the nation. Party leaders, even the most progressive among them, rarely propose serious solutions to this vexing problem. A sincere critique of Biden’s busing record would require a broader reckoning of the Democratic Party’s—and by extension the nation’s—abandonment of this central goal of the [[civil rights movement]].

===Carter, stagflation and human rights===
More than four decades of [[Keynesian]]ism, deficit spending, and [[big government]] created an era of stagnant growth only kept afloat by the printing presses of the Federal Reserve Board. Each round of [[new spending]] by the Democratic Congress prompted the Federal Reserve to print more money, causing an increase in the cost of living, resulting in calls by Democrats for more government stimulus spending, more inflation, more price increases, higher costs, taxes on business and less new job creation. While wages and prices continued to spiral upward, no new jobs or increase in goods and services were created to meet the demands of a growing population.
[[File:Jimmy Carter.jpg|left|175px|thumb|[[Jimmy Carter]] was elected in 1976 and defeated in 1980.]]
The Democratic party split five ways in 1968 and became a minority party in presidential elections for decades; after 1964 they won a national majority of the popular presidential vote only in 2008. However, the Democrats won a plurality of the popular vote in 1976, 1992, 1996 and 2000 - all years where Democrats employed their own version of a Southern Strategy to appeal to racist white Democrats. After the fiasco and riot that was the 1968 convention, the [[McGovern-Fraser Commission]] was appointed to reform the nominating process. Sen. [[George McGovern]] of South Dakota used the commission to rig his own nomination in 1972. McGovern's forces at the national convention ousted Mayor [[Richard J. Daley]] and the entire Chicago delegation, replacing them with insurgents led by [[Jesse Jackson]]. After it became known that McGovern's running mate, Thomas Eagleton, had received psychiatric and electro-shock treatment, McGovern said he supported Eagleton "1000%" but he was soon forced to drop him and find a new running mate. With his campaign stalled for several weeks, McGovern finally selected [[Sargent Shriver]], a Kennedy-in-law who was close to Mayor Daley. On July 14, 1972, McGovern appointed his campaign manager, Jean Westwood as the first woman chair of the Democratic National Committee. McGovern emulated an earlier populist Plains preacher, William Jennings Bryan, with his antiwar sentiment and redistributive politics. He was defeated in a landslide by incumbent [[Richard Nixon]], winning only Massachusetts and Washington, D.C.. With the Marxist encroachment in the Democrat party which had spent the later half of the 1960s and early 1970s rioting, looting, and burning American cities, a Gallup Poll revealed a staggering 33% of Democrats and 57% of blue-collar workers voted for Nixon.<ref>[http://presidentelect.org/art_cooper_e1972an.html An Interpretation of the 1972 Presidential Election Landslide], by CRAIG W. COOPER, 1975.</ref>

The [[Watergate affair]] of 1973-74 made mistrust of government a central issue, especially after [[Gerald Ford]] pardoned Nixon in September 1974. Returning servicemen from Vietnam and termination of the draft created large unemployment, marking the end of the centerpiece of the Great Society's unemployment program. Nixon however was blamed for the bad economy, and the Democrats made major gains in the 1974 off-year elections. Racism and segregation remained a common thread binding white Democrats together. In 1975, [[Delaware]] Sen. [[Joseph Biden]] led a coalition of liberals and former [[George Wallace]] supporters to oppose racial integration of schools, and went so far as to consider a [[Constitutional Amendment]].<ref>https://soundcloud.com/user-391839060/npr-1975-interview-with-sen-joe-biden</ref>

In 1976 Ford was narrowly defeated by [[Jimmy Carter]], a former governor of Georgia. Carter, a [[Trilateral Commission|Trilateralist]], posed as a total outsider who promised honesty in government. He had served as a naval officer, a farmer, a state senator, and a one-term governor. His only public profile in federal politics was when he chaired the Democratic National Committee's congressional and gubernatorial elections in 1974. Carter's "consolidation" of governmental agencies resulted in the creation of two new cabinet-level bureaucracies, the [[United States Department of Energy]] and the [[United States Department of Education]]. Carter began deregulation of the trucking, airline, rail, finance, communications, and oil industries, raised [[social security]] taxes, and appointed record numbers of women and minorities to significant government and judicial posts, including [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]] as head of the Great Society [[boondoggle]], the Legal Service Corporation. He also enacted more environmental legislation, through the expansion of the [[National Park Service]] in [[Alaska]], adding 103 million acres of parkland. In foreign affairs, Carter negotiated the [[Camp David Accords]], the Panama Canal Treaties, the creation of full diplomatic relations with the [[People's Republic of China]], and the [[SALT II]] Treaty.

Carter failed to implement national health care and raised Social Security taxes. The [[Congressional Black Caucus]] year after year submitted bills for the Martin Luther King holiday, but despite Democrat control of the House, Senate, and White House, their proposals were repeatedly rejected by racist Democrats. Not until Ronald Reagan and the Republican Senate of the 1980s was the holiday adopted. Stagflation with limited job opportunities were on the rise.

In 1980, Carter defeated liberal champion [[Edward Kennedy]] to gain renomination but lost to conservative [[Ronald Reagan]] by a landslide. The Democrats lost 12 Senate seats, and for the first time since 1954, the Republicans controlled the Senate. The House, however, remained in Democratic hands.

Jimmy Carter was elected by campaigning on the Misery Index - adding the [[inflation]] rate and [[unemployment]] rate together, which then stood at 13.4%. By 1980 when Carter sought reelection, the Misery index ratcheted up to 21%. After "twelve years of neglect" as Bill Clinton referred to [[Reaganomics]] it in 1992, the Misery Index stood at 9.2%. Clinton's racist [[dogwhistling]] brought enough racist Democrats home to win a 42% plurality in a three-way contest.

[[Willie Brown]], later mayor of [[San Francisco]] and [[Kamala Harris]]'s mentor, compared [[Jim Jones]] to [[Martin Luther King]] and [[Mahatma Gandhi]].

Moscone's press secretary stated that Jones "made his followers available to support [[progressive]] [[Democratic]] candidates."<ref>Los Angeles Herald Examiner, "The Political Pull of Jim Jones", November 21, 1978</ref>

Moscone's press spokesman explained it was "common knowledge that if you were going to run for office in San Francisco, and your constituency included the black, the young or the poor, you'd better have Jones in your corner." Of particular interest to politicians was the Temple's ability to produce 2,000 people for campaign work or attendance at an event with only six hours notice.
<ref name="Lindsay, Robert 1978"/> Moscone's aide stated that Jones offered thousands of "foot soldiers" willing to walk precincts and get out the vote, which was "an offer no politician in his right mind could refuse." Similarly, San Francisco Mayor Art Agnos stated that "If you were having a rally for a presidential candidate, you needed to fill up the crowd, you could always get busloads from Jim Jones' church."<ref>Richardson, James, [http://www.escholarship.org/editions/view?docId=ft0m3nb07q;brand=ucpress ''Willie Brown A Biography''], University of California Press, 1996, p. 250 {{webarchive|url=https://www.webcitation.org/5vybRDHsI?url=http://www.escholarship.org/editions/view?docId=ft0m3nb07q;brand=ucpress |date=January 24, 2011 }}</ref> The chairman of the county Democratic Central Committee, the governing body of the Democratic Party in San Francisco, referred to the Temple as "a ready-made volunteer workforce," and Jones was "a man who touched a component of the consensus power forces in the city, such as labor and ethnicity groups....here was a guy who could provide workers for causes progressives cared about."<ref>Taylor, Michael, "Jones Captivated S.F.'s Liberal Elite", San Francisco Chronicle, November 12, 1998.</ref>

Accordingly, "those who remained drugged with the opiate of religion had to be brought to enlightenment{{spaced ndash}}socialism." (Layton 1999, page 53).

[http://jonestown.sdsu.edu/?page_id=27580 "Transcript of Recovered FBI tape Q 757."] ''Alternative Considerations of Jonestown and Peoples Temple''. Jonestown Project: San Diego State University).

If you're born in capitalist America, racist America, fascist America, then you're born with a big d***o in sin. But if you're born in socialism, you're not born in sin."(Jones, Jim.

Jones procured land in [[Guyana]] where nearly 1,000 of his followers settled in Jonestown, clearing the land, planting crops, and listening to him preach the gospel according to [[Karl Marx]]. “I call [[capitalism]] the [[devil]],” Jones said from the pulpit, “and [[socialism]] is [[God]].” A former member of the Indianapolis Human Rights Commission, Jones often quoted Marx's dictum, "From each as he is able, to each according to his need."

====Human rights and the Ayatollah Khomeini====

Abroad, for the first time since Harry Truman, Carter shifted the focus of U.S. foreign policy from Russia to "human rights." The [[Shah of Iran]] came to power in 1941 and was an ally of Western powers in the war against [[Adolf Hitler]]. During the [[Six Day War]] in 1967, the Shah aided Israel by keeping [[Saddam Hussein]] out of the war. The Shah did not participate in the 1973 [[Yom Kippur War]] or [[OPEC]] oil embargo. He had been a loyal Western ally in the [[Cold War]] for the better part of four decades.

Carter supported the [[Ayatollah Khomeini]] over the Shah of Iran whom Soviet intelligence and Western media portrayed as a greedy capitalist oppressor. William Miller, chief of staff on the US Senate Intelligence Committee, said America had nothing to fear from Khomeini since he would be a [[Progressivism|progressive]] force for human rights. U.S. Ambassador William Sullivan compared Khomeini to [[Mahatma Gandhi]]. The mainstream media and State Department called him the "Iranian Mandela." The fall of the Shah and rise of the [[Islamic Republic of Iran]] set back [[women's rights]] centuries.

Once installed under Carter's human right's policy, the Ayatollah created the ''Basij Mostazafan'', a movement of young people under age 17. When the Iran-Iraq War started in 1980, Khomeini issued a promise of paradise to the children and they were incorporated into the Iranian military. The Iranian clergy called for the young people from age 9 years old and up to move forward in human wave attacks, to clear minefields so the regular Army could pass.<ref>[http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/war/iran-iraq.htm Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), ''Iraqi Retreats, 1982-84''], Globalsecruity.org, retrieved 20 March 2007.</ref> Matthias Küntzel quotes an Iraqi officer's description of one such encounter in the summer of 1982.

Other reports appeared in the Iranian daily newspaper, ''Ettelaat'', and later an eyewitness gave an account to the German newspaper ''Frankfurter Allgemeine'' in 2002. Some 100,000 children were killed fulfilling Carter's human rights policy this way.

Iranian students attacked the American embassy in [[Teheran]] and took Americans hostage for 444 days. The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in late 1979 and the progressive Kool-Aid drinkers weakened the perception Americans had of Carter.

Carter was forced to admit his error in downplaying the focus on Russian intentions in January 1980 with his [[Carter Doctrine]], declaring the Persian Gulf a vital [[national security]] interest which was later used as the long-standing [[foreign policy]] basis of the 1992 [[Gulf War]] and the 2003 [[Iraq War]]. The loss of the Shah as an ally in 1979 led to the rise of the [[theocratic]] Iranian Islamic Republic, the world's leading state sponsor of terror. The Islamic Republic's pursuit of nuclear weapons would become a lingering problem for the United States in coming decades and the early 21st century.

Instrumental in the election of Republican [[Ronald Reagan]], were many who felt abandoned by the Democrats embrace of socialism. Among legislators, one of the most prominent of these conservative Democrats was Georgia congressman and second chairman of the [[John Birch Society]], [[Larry McDonald]], who was a passenger on [[Korean Airlines Flight 007]] shot down by the Soviets near [[Moneron Island]] on September 1, 1983.

To oppose Reagan, Senate Democrats elected the [[Exalted Cyclops]] of Ku Klux Klan, Sen. [[Robert Byrd]] to lead them. Byrd once wrote,
{{quotebox-float|"I shall never fight in the armed forces with a Negro by my side. … Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds."<ref>https://www.ocregister.com/2012/05/09/walter-williams-most-racists-were-democrats/</ref>}}

The "Reagan Democrats" were Democrats before the Reagan years, and afterward, but they voted for Ronald Reagan in 1980 and 1984 (and for [[George H. W. Bush]] in 1988), producing landslide victories. Jesse Jackson became the first African-American to win states in a major party primary election for president in 1984. But vote rigging by [[Superdelegate]]s at the convention sabotaged his efforts.<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/1984/05/20/us/disparity-between-jackson-s-vote-and-delegate-count-vexes-party.html DISPARITY BETWEEN JACKSON'S VOTE AND DELEGATE COUNT VEXES PARTY], by DAVID E. ROSENBAUM, ''New York Times'', May 20, 1984.</ref> Reagan Democrats were mostly white ethnics in the Northeast who were attracted to Reagan on issues such as jobs, abortion, and his strong foreign policy. Stanley Greenberg, a Democratic pollster analyzed white ethnic voters, largely unionized auto workers, in suburban Macomb County, Michigan, just north of Detroit. The county voted 63 percent for Kennedy in 1960 and 66 percent for Reagan in 1984. Restrictive oil drilling, high energy prices, unrestricted Japanese auto imports, and 17% auto loans caused by federal deficits and inflation destroyed their jobs. Greenberg concluded that many working families no longer saw Democrats as champions of their interests. Bill Clinton resuscitated racist dog whistles with considerable success in 1992 and 1996.

====The global warming hoax to counter capitalism====
Democratic party leaders, officially and unofficially, [[collude]]d with the [[KGB]] to interfere in American elections and affect U.S. [[foreign policy]]. A 1983 KGB memo<ref>[http://sweetness-light.com/archive/kgb-letter-details-ted-kennedys-offer-to-help-ussr Kennedy collusion with the KGB].</ref> describes a meeting between former KGB officials and former Democratic Sen. John Tunney (Sen. Kennedy's confidant) in Moscow. Tunney asked the KGB to convey a message to [[Yuri Andropov]], the Soviet leader, proposing a campaign in which Kennedy would visit [[Moscow]] to offer talking points to Andropov and Soviet officials on how to attack Reagan's policies to U.S. audiences. According to the memo, Kennedy, through the intermediary, offered to help facilitate a media tour in a proposed visit by Andropov to the United States. Kennedy's hope was to hurt Reagan politically on foreign policy at a time when the economic recovery was working in his favor.<ref>[http://www.frontpagemag.com/readArticle.aspx?ARTID=30980 Jamie Glazov; ''Ted Kennedy and the KGB'' FrontPageMagazine.com (Thursday, May 15, 2008)]</ref>

In 1984, 10 Democratic lawmakers — including the House Democratic Majority Leader and Intelligence Committee chairman – sent a letter to Nicaraguan Communist leader [[Daniel Ortega]] known as the "Dear Comandante" letter. In it, the lawmakers criticized Reagan's policy toward [[Nicaragua]] and whitewashed the record of violence and murder by the [[Sandinista]] communists.<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/5-times-democrats-undermined-republican-presidents-with-foreign-governments</ref> [[Bernie Sanders]] was a frequent visitor to Nicaragua at this time, singing the praises of communism.

In response to Reagan's defense build-up and missile defense initiative,<ref>http://www.rationaloptimist.com/blog/nuclear-winter/</ref> which bankrupted the Soviet Union and ended the specter of Mutually Assured Destruction, many Democrats adopted the [[KGB]] line of a nuclear freeze and [[global warming]] targeting America's manufacturing and economic base. [[Barack Obama]] expounded the [[Brezhnev]] era doctrine in an essay entitled ''Breaking The War Mentality'' published in Columbia University's weekly magazine, ''The Sun Dial.''<ref>https://2012election.procon.org/sourcefiles/obama-article-sun-dial-columbia-breaking-war-mentality.pdf</ref> Anti-capitalists in the United States and Europe began attacking the booming auto manufacturing,<ref>The legacy of the global [[Cold War]] economy can be seen in that the loosers of [[World War II]] - [[Germany]] and [[Japan]] - as of 2019 remain the world's largest auto manufactures. Germany and Japan were allowed to rebuild their economies around the automobile - provided the two refrained from competing in the global aircraft industry. World War II proved the military doctrine of the superiority of airpower - whoever controls the skies controls the ground. While Germany and Japan do produce aircraft, including military aircraft, it is strictly for their domestic markets and not for export. Germany and Japan certainly have the manufacturing and technical capabilities to compete with Boeing, AirBus, Northrup Grumman and others, but by previous trade agreements are prohibited. By contrast, the United States, [[UK]], [[France]], [[Italy]] and others have ceded much of their domestic auto markets to German and Japanese manufactures. The fraud of the global warming hoax can be seen in the disproportionate lack of pressure on Germany and Japan to cease auto exports, as has been applied throughout the rest of the West.</ref> oil drilling and refining industries as responsible for the destruction of the planet. The Soviet [[KGB]], known for its [[propaganda]] campaigns such as the [[AIDS]] virus invented by the [[Pentagon]], mounted one last ditch effort to save [[communism]] and fight [[capitalism]]. This [[leftwing]] socialist sentiment was taught in schools and universities, where faculty salaries are dependent on [[statist]] largesse. These Russian-manufactured hoaxes on [[climate change]] were widely embraced by public sector unions in schools and universities to argue against cuts to [[Great Society]] programs.

In a limited way, the communists were successful; the global warming scare was a factor in the de-industrialization and transfer of Western factories to the [[Third World|developing world]] where environmental and labor laws were less strict. The [[free trade]] movement and [[globalization]] was partly justified by the politization of science and global warming.

====As the South became less racist, it became more Republican====
[[File:2000px-ElectoralCollege1980.png|left|thumb|325px|Reagan's 1980 landslide|By 1980, racism ebbed in the Old South as the South began voting like much of the rest of the country. Only the staunchest Democrat racist areas held out. The Republicans then passed the Martin Luther King Holiday, which the Democrat Congress and Jimmy Carter repeatedly rejected.]]
In the century after the Republicans efforts for Black equality and the end of [[Reconstruction]] in 1877, the white South identified with the Democratic Party. The Democrats' lock on power was so strong, the region was called the [[Solid South]]. The Republicans only controlled parts of the Appalachian mountains, but they sometimes did compete for statewide office in the border states. Before Lyndon Johnson's [[War on Poverty]] - an effort to extend big government social spending on Blacks which the New Deal failed to do<ref>https://youtu.be/rLMh3O-4aNA</ref> - the southern Democrats saw their party as the defender of the southern way of life, which included a respect for states' rights and an appreciation for traditional southern "values" (including [[segregation]] of blacks). They repeatedly warned against the aggressive designs of Republicans and Northern liberals, as well as civil rights activists whom they denounced as "outside agitators."

However, between 1928 and 2004, the Democratic Party's lock on the South was broken.<ref>https://youtu.be/UiprVX4os2Y</ref> The long-term cause had to do with the South becoming more like the rest of the nation. It could no longer stand apart in terms of racial segregation. Modernization had brought factories, national businesses, and larger, more [[cosmopolitan]] cities to the South, as well as millions of migrants from the North and more opportunities for higher education. Meanwhile, the cotton and tobacco economy of the traditional rural South faded away, as former farmers commuted to factory jobs. As the South became less racist, it became more Republican.
[[File:The Philadelphia Inquirer (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) 20 Sep 1987, Sun Page 79.PNG|right|250px|thumb|"we [Delawareans] were on the South’s side in the Civil War.” - Joe Biden, ''Philadelphia Inquirer'', 20 Sep 1987, Page 79.<ref>''Presidential hopeful Biden faces an image problem'', [https://www.newspapers.com/image/?clipping_id=28178299&fcfToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJmcmVlLXZpZXctaWQiOjE2OTgzNDI0OCwiaWF0IjoxNjIwMDAwOTY5LCJleHAiOjE2MjAwODczNjl9.Qis6deAMX2ZszubFmWmV75o-sSIRnJfvNYg4W9pJF3A The Philadelphia Inquirer (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) 20 Sep 1987, Sun Page 79.]</ref>]]
Integration and the civil rights movement caused enormous controversy in the white South, with many attacking it as a violation of states' rights. When segregation was outlawed by Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices and by the [[bi-partisan]] Civil Rights acts of 1964 and 1965, a die-hard element of Democrats resisted integration, led by Democrats [[Orval Faubus]] of Arkansas, Lester Maddox of Georgia, [[Al Gore, Sr.]] of Tennessee, [[J. William Fulbright]] of Arkansas and [[George Wallace]] of Alabama. These racists appealed to a less-educated, blue-collar electorate that on economic grounds favored [[New Deal]] [[white privilege]] and opposed desegregation. After 1965 most Southerners accepted integration, with the exception of public schools in an effort led by Sen. [[Joseph Biden]].<ref name="politico.com">https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/08/joe-biden-integration-school-busing-120968_full.html</ref> Just as the Republican, Martin Luther King had promised, integration had brought about a new day in Southern politics, freeing both blacks and whites from old hatreds and fears.

President Johnson's [[big government]] giveaways and [[affirmative action]] programs attracted Blacks for the first time, and they began supporting Democratic candidates, producing leaders such as [[Julian Bond]] and [[John Lewis]] of Georgia, and Barbara Jordan of Texas.

Using issues of cultural conservatism, especially opposition to abortion and homosexuality and support for school prayer, Republicans attracted strong majorities among evangelical Christians. They were nationwide, but strongest in the South; before the 1980s they were largely apolitical. Exit polls in 2004 showed that Bush led Kerry by 70-30% among Southern whites, who comprised 71% of the voters. Kerry had a 90–9 lead among the 18% of Southern voters who were black. One third of the Southern voters said they were white evangelicals; they voted for Bush by 80–20%.<ref>See the exit polls at {{cite web|url=https://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2004/pages/results/states/US/P/00/epolls.3.html |date=2004-11-02\|accessdate=|title=U.S. PRESIDENT / REGION: SOUTH / EXIT POLL}}</ref>

In 1988, the Communist Party USA (CPUSA), after decades of running their own presidential candidates, with the loss of Russian funding stopped running presidential candidates and has endorsed every Democratic presidential nominee since.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pjFfE1MNFk Communists, the Democrat Party and Snopes]</ref><ref>[http://aun-tv.com/2015/08/did-the-communist-party-usa-take-over-democratic-party-in-1988/ Did The Communist Party USA Take Over Democratic Party in 1988?]</ref> Since the end of the [[Cold War]],<ref>[https://youtu.be/JVkkLDAm8I4 KGB Bezmenov 1985 - Four Steps to Subversion of a Nation], youtube.</ref> communists began rising in Civil Service and elected office as Democrats.<ref>[https://youtu.be/ZXLuqQe8DqQ Deep State Unmasked: State Dept on Hidden Cam "Resist Everything" "I Have Nothing to Lose"], ''Project Veritas''.</ref>

====Racist smear campaign====
In 1991, Republican President George H.W. Bush appointed an African American, [[Clarence Thomas]], to the Supreme Court to replace the retiring Justice [[Thurgood Marshall]]. Racist Democrats were outraged that a conservative Black, who refused to pledge to uphold ''[[Roe v. Wade]]'' which legalized the murder of millions of unborn Blacks, would become a role model for Black youth. [[Anita Hill]], a [[lesbian]] staffer who worked for Thomas was pushed forward, against her will, to testify publicly about unverified comments she made to FBI background investigators alleging sexual harassment in the work place, essentially jokes circulating among office employees. Hill's name was illegally [[leak]]ed by Senate Democrat staffers and Chairman [[Joseph Biden]] then subpoenaed Hill, compelling her to testify in public under oath in an effort to derail the nomination and permanently scar Thomas. In an unprecedented step, Biden delayed the final vote and held extended public hearings.

Hill worked for Thomas at the Dept. of Education, and when Thomas left the Dept. of Education to work at the EEOC, Thomas invited her to come along and she followed. Hill never reported the alleged sexual harassment.

After nationally televised hearings consisting largely of a discussion of African American body parts, Thomas was confirmed by the U.S. Senate with a majority of Americans in public opinion polls believing Thomas over Hill. A fringe minority of partisan [[gay rights]] activists, [[feminists]], liberals, and [[mainstream media]] journalist are said to have believed Hill.

===Clinton, Biden and the New Jim Crow===
[[File:Clinton gore.png|right|275px|thumb]]
In the 1990s the Democratic Party revived itself, in part by distancing itself from [[Jesse Jackson]] and the [[Rainbow Coalition]].<ref>http://www.blackcommentator.com/46/46_cover.html https://ofamerica.wordpress.com/tag/democratic-leadership-council/</ref> Jackson was the first African-American to win a major party primary in 1988.

Republished 24 May 2005</ref> Clinton defeated the incumbent [[George H. W. Bush]] in 1992, was the beneficiary of reduced defense spending with the end of the Cold War and a balanced federal budget. Clinton proposed [[welfare reform]] (cutting benefits and requiring many recipients to take jobs). Labor unions, which had been steadily losing membership due to [[globalization]] since the 1960s, found they had also lost political clout inside the Democratic Party: Clinton enacted the [[NAFTA]] free trade agreement with Canada and Mexico accelerating globalization and job loss over the strong objection of these labor unions.

Every year for twelve years, Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, who both always had at least one house of Congress controlled by Democrats, asked in their State of the Union addresses for Congress to create Enterprise Zones - special tax breaks for start-ups and businesses to relocate to blighted areas, predominantly black, inner-city urban areas - to create jobs and deliver services. Democrats didn't want Republicans to be seen as helping blacks. However, in President Clinton's first 100 days, with a Democrat House and Senate, Democrats finally delivered Enterprise Zones after making African Americans wait 12 years to finally participate in the prosperity begun in the 1980s. [[Bill Clinton]] attacked [[Nancy Reagan]]'s anti-drug "Just Say No" campaign as "twelve years of neglect" and ratcheted up deaths caused by illegal drug use from 10,000 per year to 70,000.<ref>https://slate.com/news-and-politics/1996/06/clinton-s-drug-war.html</ref> The [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican Party]] took control of both the House of Representatives and the United States Senate after the 1994 midterm election.

In a eulogy loaded with racist [[dog whistle]]s, here's what Bill Clinton said at the grave of his mentor, Sen. J. William Fulbright: {{quotebox-float|"We come to celebrate and give thanks for the remarkable life of [[J. William Fulbright]], a life that changed our country and our world forever and for the better. . . . In the work he did, the words he spoke and the life he lived, Bill Fulbright stood against the 20th century’s most destructive forces and fought to advance its brightest hopes.<ref>https://www.nationalreview.com/2015/06/democratic-party-racist-history-mona-charen/</ref>}} So spoke President William J. Clinton in 1995 of a man who was among the 99 Democrats in Congress to sign the “[[Southern Manifesto]]” in 1956. The Southern Manifesto declared the signatories’ opposition to the Supreme Court's decision in ''[[Brown v. Board of Education]]'' and their commitment to segregation forever. Fulbright was also among those who [[filibuster]]ed the [[Civil Rights Act of 1964]]. That filibuster continued for 83 days.

When the [[Democratic Leadership Council]] (DLC) assumed leadership of the party and its direction, some liberals and progressives felt alienated, believing the party gave in to capitalism and was unconcerned with left-wing issues in general. Some moderates challenged the validity of such critiques, citing the Democratic role in pushing the gay and progressive agendas.

=====Biden Crime Bill of 1994=====

When [[President George H.W. Bush]] asked for a record increase in funding to fight the [[War on Drugs]], Biden told a TV interviewer {{Quotebox|"In a nutshell, the President's plan does not include enough police officers to catch the violent thugs, enough prosecutors to convict them, enough judges to sentence them or enough prison cells to put them away for a long time."<ref>http://articles.latimes.com/1989-09-06/news/mn-1646_1_drug-war</ref><ref>http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/12/first-step-act-skepticism.html</ref>}}

The bill is known for its sentencing disparities which led to mass incarceration of Blacks.<ref>https://fair.org/home/senate-crime-bill-unscrutinized-by-the-press/</ref>]]
Biden, [[Ted Kennedy]], and [[Strom Thurmond]] worked on proposals that raised maximum penalties, removed a directive requiring the US Sentencing Commission to take into account prison capacity, and created the cabinet-level “drug czar” position. In 1984, they passed the Comprehensive Crime Control Act, which, among other things, abolished [[parole]], imposed a less generous cap on “good time” sentence reductions, and allowed the Sentencing Commission to issue more punitive guidelines.

Biden bragged on the Senate floor that it was under his and Thurmond's leadership that Congress passed a law sending anyone caught with a rock of cocaine the size of a quarter to jail for a minimum of five years - the notoriously racist hundred-to-one sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. In the same speech Biden took credit for [[civil asset forfeiture]] and seizure laws, and demanded to know why [[Papa Bush]] hadn't sentenced more drug dealers to life in prison or exercise the [[death penalty]] once Congress had given him that power.<ref>https://www.c-span.org/video/?18528-1/violent-crime-control-act-1991</ref>

Biden's version of a new crime bill added more than forty crimes that would be eligible for the [[death penalty]].

By 2001, the United States had the highest rate of incarceration in the world. [[Human Rights Watch]] reported that in seven states, African Americans constituted 80 to 90 percent of all drug offenders even though they were no more likely than whites to use or sell illegal drugs. Prison admissions for drug offenses reached a level in 2000 for African Americans more than 26 times the level they had been under [[Ronald Reagan]].<ref>[https://www.thenation.com/article/hillary-clinton-does-not-deserve-black-peoples-votes/ Why Hillary Clinton Doesn’t Deserve the Black Vote], Michelle Alexander, ''The Nation'', February 10, 2016</ref> Biden's "social planning" had proven effective.

The Leftist ''Jacobin'' magazine summed up Biden's record: {{Quotebox|"It’s not as if Biden didn’t know what he was doing.... He just didn’t care. Biden had made a calculated decision that the elections he would win were worth the damage he inflicted.... But even if Biden has subsequently learned the error of his ways, the rank cynicism and callousness involved in his two-decade-long championing of carceral policies should be more than enough to give anyone pause about his qualities as a leader, let alone a [[progressive]] one."<ref>https://www.jacobinmag.com/2018/08/biden-crime-mass-incarceration-police-prisons</ref>}}

=====Impeachment: lying under oath is not a crime=====
Clinton was impeached in a scandal involving [[sexual crime]]s in 1998 and acquitted in 1999 when Democrats considered that a sitting president who lies under oath to a federal judge was not a crime. Impeachment caused extreme partisan divisions within the country; however a healthy economy, with the lower mortgage interest rates due to reduced defense spending and the end of the Cold War, no one wanted to upset the apple cart. Democrats themselves were not keen on the idea of Al Gore becoming president, either.

Hollywood mogul and Democrat megadonor [[Harvey Weinstein]] was a founder of the Clinton Legal Defense Fund to defend Bill Clinton against sexual assault charges; after Senate Democrats exonerated President Clinton, Weinstein himself faced sexual assault charges from at least 97 women over the next twenty years.

=====Globalization=====
One of the first actions to promote globalization was when the Clinton administration purchased berets for Army Rangers made in China. Plans were quickly drawn up to outsource the manufacture of army boots, fatigues, and other military apparel to China. This of course would destroy American jobs in American textile plants.

Since the New Deal, tales were legendary how the large military force assembled by America led to full employment in American factories, with the soldiers wives and girlfriends working in arms factories, and mothers and grandmothers employed in textile plants to make clothing and boots for soldiers. This basic economic concept was engraved in the conscience of the World War II generation, particularly loyal Democrat voters proud of the New Deal. Outsourcing American jobs related to national defense and national security to foreigners, particularly a non-democratic and potentially hostile foreign power, seemed like total insanity to older loyal Democrat voters and Republicans, as well.

The argument that "cheaper is better", since it would destroy American jobs and the U.S. welfare system existed as a safety net, didn't carry much weight. But Democrat voters re-elected Clinton anyway. Globalists made clear that eventually items such as medical supplies and pharmaceuticals, items also related to national security should a [[pandemic]] ever erupt, could also be safely entrusted to the Chinese communists.

===Election of 2000: Florida recount===

During the presidential election of 2000, the Democrats chose Vice President [[Al Gore]] to be the party's candidate for the presidency. Gore and [[George W. Bush]], the Republican candidate and son of former President George H.W. Bush, disagreed on a number of issues, including abortion, gun control, environmentalism, gay rights, tax cuts, foreign policy, public education, global warming, judicial appointments, and affirmative action. Gore told the [[NAACP]] that his father, Sen. [[Al Gore Sr.]], had lost his Senate seat because he voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964-a total fabrication.

Gore won a plurality of over 500,000 votes but lost the electoral college by four votes. Gore asked for a recount in [[Florida]], re-opening the divisions caused by Clinton's impeachment.

Gore's affiliation with Clinton and the racist DLC machine<ref>http://www.blackcommentator.com/46/46_cover.html</ref> caused critics—Green Party progressive candidate [[Ralph Nader]] in particular—to assert that Bush and Gore were too similar, especially on free trade, reductions in social welfare, and the death penalty. "We want to punish the Democrats, we want to hurt them, wound them," Nader's closest advisor said.<ref>Harry G. Levinem "Ralph Nader, Suicide Bomber." ''The Village Voice'' May 3, 2004 at [http://www.villagevoice.com/news/0418,levine,53179,1.html]</ref> Some Democrats blamed Nader's third-party spoiler role for Gore's defeat.

Afterward, Gore made millions of dollars with a film preaching progressive climate change eschatology, asserting that life on the planet would come to an end by the year 2013, sold his leftist propaganda radio network for hundreds of millions of dollars to [[Al Jazeera]], was accused of sexual assault, and disappeared into obscurity.

Despite Gore's close defeat, the Democrats gained five seats in the Senate (including the election of [[Hillary Clinton]] in New York), to turn a 55–45 Republican edge into a 50–50 split (with a Republican vice president breaking a tie). However, when Republican Senator [[Jim Jeffords]] of Vermont decided in 2001 to become an independent and caucus with the Democrats, the majority status shifted along with the seat, including control of the floor (by the Majority Leader) and control of all committee chairmanships. However, the Republicans regained their Senate majority with gains in 2002 and 2004, leaving the Democrats with only 44 seats, the fewest since the 1920s.

====2001: Progressives allied with jihadis====
[[File:C9Pak4-W0AIldKy (1).jpg|right|350px|thumb|Email to Hillary Clinton: '''"Al Qaeda is on our side."''' Al Qaeda murdered 3,000 Americans in the [[9/11 attacks]].<ref>http://theduran.com/wikileaks-drops-syria-bomb-email-to-hillary-clinton-assures-her-aq-al-qaeda-is-on-our-side-in-syria/</ref>]]
In the aftermath of the [[9-11 Attacks]], the nation's focus was on issues of national security. All but one Democrat<ref>Longtime [[CPUSA]] operative Rep. [[Barbara Lee]] of Texas</ref> joined the Republicans to authorize the use of force in Afghanistan and overthrow the Taliban. House leader [[Richard Gephardt]] and Senate leader [[Thomas Daschle]] pushed Democrats to vote for the [[USA PATRIOT Act]] and the 2003 [[AUMF]] in Iraq. [[Progressive]]s sympathized with terrorists who wanted to destroy [[Western Civilization]]. More rational Democrats expressed concern over the domestic effects, including potential government abuses of civil rights and civil liberties with the PATRIOT Act. Senator [[Russ Feingold]] was the only Senator to vote against the act; it received more resistance when it came up for renewal, but was renewed in 2006.

In the wake of the [[Enron scandal]], Congressional Democrats pushed for an overhaul of business accounting.<ref>See [[Andrew Weissmann]].</ref> This led to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in 2002.

Typically, an incumbent president loses seats in Midterm elections. However, in the aftermath of 19 terrorists entering the US during the Clinton administration as part of the [[multicultural]] experiment, who then murdered 3,000 Americans in the 9/11 attacks, Democrats lost seats in the House, Senate, and governorships in the 2002 midterms. Democrats flipped gubernatorial seats in New Mexico ([[Bill Richardson]]) and Arizona ([[Janet Napolitano]]) where Clinton [[cronyism|cronies]] were elected and Wyoming (Dave Freudenthal), it was offset by Democrats losing seats in South Carolina (Jim Hodges), Alabama ([[Don Siegelman]]) and, for the first time in more than a century the Democrats' Southern Strategy failed with the loss of Georgia (Roy Barnes).

Republican gains in [[The South]] had nothing to do with racism, and everything to do with Democrats' willingness to sacrifice national security for open immigration and [[diversity]]. It led to another round of soul searching about the future of the party's increasingly radicalized base. The party's miseries mounted in 2003, when a voter recall unseated their unpopular governor of California, [[Gray Davis]], and replaced him which a charismatic liberal Republican [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]]. By the end of 2003, the four largest states had Republican governors: California, Texas, New York and Florida.

While the Gallup poll showed 72% public support for the [[War in Iraq]],<ref>https://news.gallup.com/poll/8038/seventytwo-percent-americans-support-war-against-iraq.aspx</ref> and with the party establishment drastically weakened, a handful of dissident anti-American and progressive protesters gathered in Chicago's Federal Plaza to hear an Illinois state senator named Barack Obama speak. Obama was one of the few, if not only, elected official in the country willing to express openly his lack of concern about the jihad against Western civilization. The protest was organized by the Communist party.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20100811115415/http://www.noiraqwar-chicago.org/?page_id=2</ref>

===Pelosi era===

In 2002, after [[Richard Gephardt]] resigned as minority leader to seek the Democratic nomination in the [[2004 presidential election]], Rep. [[Nancy Pelosi]] was elected to replace him, becoming the first woman to lead a major party in the House of Representatives. Pelosi's father was a Congressman from [[Maryland]] and later the Mayor of [[Baltimore]]; when Pelosi graduated from college in 1962 she didn't remain in Baltimore to serve her community but rather joined the white flight to California<ref>https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2006/10/07/family-dynasty-may-boost-pelosi-to-head-of-house-2/amp/</ref> where [[blacks]] were fewer in number.<ref>https://qz.com/393128/white-flight-decimated-baltimore-businesses-long-before-rioters-showed-up/amp/</ref> By the 1980s she became a protégé of the progressive [[Willie Brown]].

A poll conducted by [[Fox News]] released in October 2007 found that 1 in 5 Democrats – nearly 10 million voters – thought the world would be better off if the [[United States]] were to lose the [[War in Iraq]].<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,299374,00.html Nearly 1 in 5 Democrats Say World Will Be Better Off if U.S. Loses War], FOX News Poll, October 04, 2007.</ref> The poll found this sentiment 3 to 4 times higher among Democrats than among moderate, centrist, and Republican voters.

According to its 2008 platform, the Democratic Party claimed to have the objective of strengthening America, yet Democrat leaders did nothing while the Obama administration allied itself with jihadis.<ref>[http://www.news10.net/display_story.aspx?storyid=22045 "Democrats, ACLU Outraged Over Traveler Terrorism Screening Program"] C.

The Democratic Party favored free trade agreements, environmental regulation and so-called "trade impact assistance" or government handouts after trade agreements destroy private sector, taxpaying jobs.

====John Kerry: the Hippies last stand====
[[Image:437px-The New Soldier.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Kerry's book, ''The New Soldier'' with [[VVAW]] activists flying the American flag upside down. By the time Democrats did start flying the American flag, they flew it upside down.]]
The 2004 campaign began in late 2002, when Gore said he would not run again. [[Howard Dean]], former Governor of Vermont, a war protester and critic of the Democrat establishment, was the front-runner leading into the Democratic primaries. Dean had immense progressive support, especially from the [[far left]] wing of the party. Massachusetts Senator [[John Kerry]], a [[Vietnam war]] veteran turned [[hippie]] who had heavy support from the Clinton Machine and DLC, was nominated because he was seen as more "electable" than Dean. Under [[Leader Pelosi]], Democrats moved to populist [[Trumpian]] positions that denounced free trade and the [[NAFTA]] agreement.

[[Babyboomer]]s - children born in the post-[[World War II]] "baby boom," despite their large numbers in the American electorate, were always wracked by political division stemming from the Vietnam war. The election of 2004 highlighted those divisions - Kerry the supposed "war hero" who then turned on the war, and Bush the "patriot" who used family privilege to duck the draft and served in the reserves.
[[File:John-edwards-mug-shot.jpg|250px|thumb|left|Vice-Presidential candidate [[John Edwards]]' mugshot. Edwards was charged and booked in a fundraising scheme.]]
In the end, Kerry lost both the popular vote (by 3 million out of over 120 million votes cast) and the [[Electoral College]]. Republicans also gained four seats in the Senate and three seats in the House of Representatives, and for the first time since 1952, the Democratic leader of the Senate lost re-election. In the end, there were 3,660 Democratic state legislators across the nation to the Republicans' 3,557. Democrats netted governorships in Louisiana, New Hampshire and Montana. However, they lost the governorship of Missouri and a legislative majority in Georgia, which had long adhered to the Democratic racist tradition.

There were many reasons for the defeat. After the election, most analysts concluded that Kerry was a poor campaigner.<ref>Evan Thomas and Staff of Newsweek,''Election 2004: How Bush Won and What You Can Expect in the Future''(2005)</ref> A group of Vietnam veterans opposed to Kerry called the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" undercut Kerry's use of his military past by citing Kerry's Congressional testimony where he called fellow Vietnam veterans war criminals.<ref>See [[Jerome Corsi]].</ref> Kerry was unable to reconcile his support for the [[Iraq War]] with his opposition to the war in 2004, or manage the deep split in the Democratic Party between [[Patriot]]s and protesters of the war. Republicans ran thousands of television commercials to argue that Kerry had flip-flopped on Iraq. When Kerry's home state of Massachusetts' judicial system legalized radical progressive [[same-sex marriage]], the issue split liberal and conservative Democrats and independents. Kerry publicly stated throughout his campaign that he opposed same-sex "marriage," but favored [[civil union]]s. Ballot initiatives appeared in 11 states that brought citizens of both parties to the polls in large numbers; all 11 initiatives passed. [[Proposition 8]] in California won by a wide margin, but California Attorney General [[Kamala Harris]] bowed to [[LGBT]] groups and refused to defend citizen referendums in court. Some Democrats argued that flaws in vote-counting systems may also have played a role in Kerry's defeat in Ohio. Other factors include a healthy job market, a rising stock market, strong home sales due to [[FNMA|government subsidized interest rates]], and low unemployment.

After the 2004 election, prominent Democrats began to rethink the party's direction, and a variety of strategies for moving forward were voiced. Some Democrats proposed moving towards the right; others demanded that the party move more to the left and become a stronger opposition party. Rethinking the party's position on gun control became a matter of discussion, brought up by [[Howard Dean]], [[Bill Richardson]], [[Brian Schweitzer]] and other Democrats who had won governorships in states where Second Amendment rights were important to many voters.

====Pelosi and the Progressive takeover====
[[File:Pelosi Logan Act (2).jpeg|right|250px|thumb|Speaker Nancy Pelosi, an Assad apologist, violating the Logan Act.]]
These debates were reflected in the 2005 campaign for Chairman of the [[Democratic National Committee]], which [[Howard Dean]] won. As a progressive, Dean was the first to shepherd civil unions through the Vermont legislature. He sought to move the Democratic strategy away from the establishment, and bolster support for the party's state organizations, even in Red states.

When the 109th Congress convened in 2005, [[Harry Reid]], the new Senate Minority Leader, tried to convince the Democratic Senators to vote more as a bloc on important issues; he forced the Republicans to abandon their push for privatization of retirement insurance and leave the collectivist model in place. In 2005, the Democrats retained their governorships in Virginia and New Jersey, electing [[Tim Kaine]] and [[Jon Corzine]], respectively. However, the party lost the mayoral race to [[Michael Bloomberg]] in New York City, a Democratic stronghold, for the fourth straight time.

The cost of fighting two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq simultaneously allowed the [[Peoples Republic of China]], which was granted [[most favored nation]] trading status in 2001, to rush ahead in economic development and military modernization unchecked by American competition. Cheap Chinese made goods flooded the country, while American manufacturing jobs were exported to China. Negative public opinion on the war in Iraq, along with widespread dissatisfaction among conservatives dragged President Bush's job approval ratings down to the lowest levels of his presidency. To win control the Democrats had to add 15 seats in the House (they added 30), and 6 in the Senate. In 2006, with [[lobbying]] scandals engulfing the Republicans, the Democrats used the slogan "culture of corruption."

The Democratic Party's electoral success in the 2006 midterms was attributed to running relatively moderate Democrats in close seats, such as the Senate races in Virginia, Pennsylvania and Montana.<ref>Dewan Shaila and Anne E. Kornblut, "In Key House Races, Democrats Run to the Right," ''New York Times,'' 2006-10-30; but compare Rick Perlstein, "Who deserves credit for the Democratic comeback?"

No Democratic incumbent was defeated in any major race.

Senate Democrats promoted Harry Reid to Majority Leader. House Democrats chose Rep. [[Nancy Pelosi]] of California for Speaker, the first woman ever, but rejected her choice for House Majority Leader, electing [[Steny Hoyer]] instead of [[John Murtha]]. Members of Pelosi's own Democratic Caucus warned failure to deliver on their promises to clean up corruption could be damaging.<ref>[https://www.politico.com/news/stories/0507/4014.html Democrats divided on lobbying reform], Josephine Hearn and Jeff Patch, May 15, 2007.

From 1919 to 1992 the global communist movement, headquartered in [[Moscow]], sought to destabilize and [[subversion (political)|subvert]] the [[bourgeois]] regimes of the planet. The collapse of communism in [[Eastern Europe]] in ended the 45-year-long [[Cold War]]. [[Russia]] caved in, became [[capitalist]], joined the [[International Monetary Fund]] and qualified for [[World Bank]] loans. American leftists momentarily were in danger of losing their ideological direction. A group of academics and organizers called the [[Committees of Correspondence of Democratic Socialism]] (CoC) relocated the center of the global Marxist movement from the [[Kremlin]] to [[Berkeley]], [[California]] and kept the movement alive.<ref>https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/organizations/committees-of-correspondence-for-democracy-and-socialism-ccds/</ref> Despite what some journalists and pundits speculated as "the end of history" with the widely reported "fall of communism," within 15 years communists had captured the [[White House]].

Led by [[anti-war|anti-War on Terror]] radicals and jihadi sympathizers schooled in the Cold War era notion of Marxist "[[national liberation movement]]s," the Democratic party roared back with major gains in 2006, which it expanded in 2008 to sweep control of the national government and leave the GOP in a state of confusion and decline.

The GOP reunited in 2009, with near-unanimous opposition to the Democrats' socialist agenda and contentious policies, especially stimulus spending and Obamacare. Polls show Obama's popularity began to erode after his [[Barack Obama approval ratings#Declines after the Gates flap|anti-police stance]] became apparent in the summer of 2009.

For the first two years of the Obama administration, the Democrats held a veto-proof Congress and the White House, ramming through unpopular legislation, with no bipartisan support, such as [[Obamacare]]. In the [[2010 midterm elections]], Democrats received a "shellacking" for defying popular sentiment. In 2009 moderate [[Bluedog Democrat]]s boasted 44 [[centrist]]s, but by 2011 it had only 8 members. A [[centrist]] core in the House was destroyed by [[progressive]]s who dominated the party. Progressive communists tended to come from so-called "safe seats," whereas moderates, centrists, and Bluedogs came from competitive districts, and were sacrificed on the altar of ideological purity by Marxists in search of [[single party control]]. Suburbs and rural areas remained in Republican hands.<ref>[http://www.multistate.com/Site.nsf/Elections2006PostMaps?OpenPage Multistate.com] Post-Election 2006 Maps</ref> Voters in 2010, 2014, and 2016 rejected Democratic Party candidates at the local, state and national levels in record-setting proportions.

====Fascist national security state====

Under Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, the Democratic party has been transformed into the party of war and the national security surveillance state. Anyone who does not toe the party line is smeared as a Russian agent.<ref>https://twitter.com/TulsiGabbard/status/1185988329742798848?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw</ref> The party establishment attacks critics of [[regime change]] wars with Hinduphobia and as "Russian" bots and assets. Party operatives regularly ignore [[4th Amendment]] and due process rights - including congressional committee chairmen conducting a supposed "[[impeachment inquiry]]" which was never voted on and authorized by the [[House of Representatives]].

Author Max Blumenthal, senior editor of ''The Grayzone'', observed:
{{Quotebox|This whole narrative would blow back on [[the left]] and would be used to enforce conformity on issues of war and peace, in support of the former against the latter. When we're seeing that play out in real time, with Hillary Clinton's attacks on [[Tulsi Gabbard]]. It was clear to me as soon as Tulsi Gabbard got into the race that even though she has absolutely no connection to Russia at all, she was going to be smeared this way because this is the McCarthyite venomous poison that Hillary Clinton has brought into the Democratic Party, along with the [[national security]] state figures like [[John Brennan]] and [[James Clapper]]. They have turned principled resistance against Trump and Trumpism into a collection of spooks, dupes, and Cold War cooks, and our worst warnings are being fulfilled. Tulsi Gabbard has been smeared as a Russian asset. She's been basically accused of committing a crime, that could hold the [[death penalty]], by someone with a multi-million dollar sleaze operation. Hillary Clinton and her sleaze network, her corporate funded sleaze network which really grew out of her campaign where she just had so much [[Wall Street]] money, and defense industry money....this is their way of destroying an emergent trend in the party, which is somewhat non-partisan. But is also anti-war, which reflects the sentiments of Americans across the country including a lot of the working-class people who are following Trump into the Republican Party. It was coordinated.... 
The rhetorical basis for Hillary Clinton smear was established during the past two years when anyone who challenged the imperatives of the national security state in places like [[Syria]] or [[Venezuela]], where the proxy war is playing out between the US and Russia although you know it's not purely a proxy war but it's seen that way in Washington, is accused of echoing [[Kremlin]] [[propaganda]]. And so we saw that narrative weaponized against Tulsi Gabbard after the last debate. I've never seen such a meltdown among you know Beltway and Democratic establishment hacks over a minor protest candidate who's polling at 2%, as the one I saw against Tulsi Gabbard. Susan Glasser from ''Politico'', who's just the quintessential centrist hack, who's married to Peter Baker - the ''New York Times'' White House correspondent, said that Tulsi Gabbard was echoing Russian and Syrian talking points by condemning regime change wars. This is something that only the reel cranks of the Republican Party would have said about opponents of the [[Iraq war]]. Now it's coming out of the political center. Josh Marshall, and founder of ''Talking Points Memo'' which all of the Democratic wonks wake up every morning and read, said "the only thing that Tulsi Gabbard can do is shut the F up." That was his response to her. It's like this. She inspires this kind of visceral outrage by condemning regime change wars, and one after another they accuse her of echoing Russian talking points. So now championing the cause of peace, withdrawing US troops, withdrawing US bases from a hinterland in northern Syria, it's the Russian agenda. And this is something I've never heard in my lifetime since I was kind of like a sentient being following politics. But it's something that I read about in books about [[McCarthyism]]. And it really appears to have so infested the mainstream of the Democratic Party that we're going to be living with it for the rest of our lives.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRp7iEVZD6c</ref>}}

Critics have noted that the Democratic party has morphed into a branch of the CIA not unlike the origins of the [[East German]] [[Stasi]] government.<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/political/will-democratic-party-exist-after-2020-election</ref> The all consuming [[Russiagate]] insanity began when the FBI launched its counterintelligence probe after learning that a Trump campaign aide, [[George Papadopoulos]], was offered “dirt” on Hillary Clinton from an FBI plant named [[Joseph Mifsud]], and after Papadopoulos told Australian diplomat [[Alexander Downer]] about it. Australian officials then tipped off their American counterparts to Papadopoulos’ remarks, after which the FBI flew agent [[Peter Strzok]] to [[London]] to interview Downer about his interactions with Papadopoulos, igniting what the FBI called operation “[[Crossfire Hurricane]],” they claim began on July 31, 2016.

Aside from now fired FBI agent Peter Strzok and his also ousted FBI secret lover [[Lisa Page]] being exposed for their political bias in text messages to have created an “Insurance Policy” to damage Trump if he was elected, and Alexander Downer having funneled $25 million to [[Clinton Foundation]], the central pivot person of the entire Russiagate [[conspiracy theory]] revolved around Mifsud, who works for the UK Cabinet Office Security Vetting Appeals Panel and trains NATO intelligence personnel and diplomats at Link Campus University in Rome that's described as a finishing school for British spies, along with FBI agents who have also both taught and have trained at the school.<ref>https://disobedientmedia.com/2018/04/all-russiagate-roads-lead-to-london-as-evidence-emerges-of-joseph-mifsuds-links-to-uk-intelligence/</ref>

====Incremental socialism====
[[File:Maria-and-Che.jpg|right|300px|thumb|A Democrat organizer sports a poster of communist [[mass murder]]er [[Che Guevara]] at Obama campaign headquarters.]]
The [[2008 presidential election]] campaign featured a duel between [[Barack Obama]]—a black candidate, and [[Hillary Clinton]], a woman contender. Obama won with his oratory skills and a highly efficient fund-raising and strong organization in the caucus states, while Clinton appealed to [[feminist]]s and [[white supremacist]]s.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uWu0nSsg7w Hillary Clinton in Black History], youtube.</ref> The contest between Obama and GOP nominee [[John McCain]] showed Obama being the clear favorite, with the vast majority of polls (with the exception of early September) depicting Obama as the clear favorite.

The [[Obama Administration]] got off to a fast start taking on more government debt to finance massive bailouts to banks, increased regulation, and deep intervention in the automobile industry. All those policies failed to reverse the decline from the [[Recession of 2008]]. After Democrats passed the Economic Recovery Act of 2009, [[unemployment]] increased from below 7% to 10%.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm|title=Employment Situation Summary|work=Bureau of Labor Statistics|date=August 1, 2014|accessdate=}}</ref>

Democratic leaders endorsed various [[Democratic Health Care Plans]]; the question in 2009 was whether to allow "a crisis to go to waste." Many Democrats advocated a minimum wage increase; the Democrat Congress failed to act but Obama signed an [[executive order]] imposing a $15 minimum wage on federal contractors, a meaningless gesture as few federal contracts have minimum wage workers.

Democrats talked about increased taxpayer funding of higher education, particularly for scientific research, land-grant colleges, community colleges and historically black colleges. Obama established a White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/executive-order-historically-black-colleges-and-universities|title=Executive Order 13532 -- Historically Black Colleges and Universities|date=February 26, 2010|accessdate=}}</ref> Democrats subsidized the interest rate out of the federal treasury for Stafford loan voters by cutting the rate to 3.4% and eliminated private banks as middlemen in federal student loans.<ref name=ed>{{cite web|url=https://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/education/higher-education|title=Higher Education|accessdate=}}</ref>

The Democratic Party felt the sting from the opposition and many Democrats began questioning their own leadership. Liberals were disenchanted with Obama's escalation of the [[Afghanistan War]]. American deaths more than doubled in Obama's first few years compared with the preceding eight years.<ref>Chesser, S.G. (2012, July 12). [http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/natsec/R41084.pdf Afghanistan Casualties: Military Forces and Civilians - CRS Report for Congress]. Pg. 3. ''Congressional Research Service'''.</ref> The health care reform that consumed most of 2009 remained unsettled, as public opinion turned against it. Environmentalists seemed resigned to the failure of [[carbon tax]]es and a [[cap and trade]] program to reduce [[greenhouse gases]]. Most of the recession dragged on. The stimulus bill was passed quickly in February 2009 over almost unanimous GOP opposition, but despite promises of "shovel ready" projects, most of the money was never spent to relieve unemployment, job creation and [[economic growth]] remained dtagnant for years.

The elections in November 2009 in New Jersey and Virginia went badly for the Democrats, as the GOP gained both governorships and many local races, not to mention the Democrats' fifth straight loss for the mayoralty of New York City.

In the [[2010 Midterm Elections]], the Republican Party gained 63 Representatives in the House (one of the largest amounts in its history and surpassing the 1994 landslide), almost gained a majority in the Senate, and gained a majority of governorships and state legislatures in one of its best election results in its history.

Although the Democrats had the opportunity to reverse the massive GOP gains in 2014 midterms, they completely failed and allowed the GOP to make even larger victories. Even when the GOP held a majority of governorships so large that it would be difficult to hold them all, they actually gained two states, expanding their majority to 31 out of 50.

Within the first six months of the new administration, Obama White House Communications Director [[Anita Dunn]] told a high school graduating class that communist [[mass murder]]er [[Mao Zedong]] - the biggest mass murderer in history by far - was her favorite "political philosopher."<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2012/10/17/obama-debate-advisor-anita-dunn-mao/ Obama Debate Coach Named Mao as Favorite Political Philosopher] by Ben Shapiro, Breitbart News, 2012</ref> [[Van Jones]], a self-proclaimed communist, was appointed Green Czar to indoctrinate young people schooled in the [[global warming hoax]] into the communist movement. When Jones' communist background and connections became public he was immediately fired and hired as an analyst for [[CNN]].

In the 21st century, the Democratic Party dropped all pretense of advocacy for Human Rights in favor of forced [[collectivization]].

====Uranium One scandal====
:{{Main article|Uranium One scandal}}
Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration colluded with Vladimir Putin to sell Russia 20% of American uranium reserves. The Clinton Foundation received $150 million from investors. The Clinton campaign knew that Hillary's Russia collusion by approving the sale of Uranium One (U1) from Clinton Foundation board member Frank Giustra to Russia's state owned nuclear energy company Rosatom in 2010-2011 was a problem, so they set out from at least April 2015 to smear whoever she was up against as “weak on Russia” or “Kremlin Trolls”.

====Obama war crimes====
:{{Main article|Obama war crimes}}
Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama illegally overthrew the government of Libya. The African [[slave trade]] was revived after the overthrow.

====Political spying====
Not wanting a crisis - the [[Financial Panic of 2008]] - to go to waste, which won the Democrats a veto proof Congress and the White House, the Democrats went full bore single party socialist and communist with the passage of Obamacare, ignoring public opinion and opposition within their own party. While subsequent elections repealed much of Obamacare, the Democrats and Obama administration plunged ahead with the communist agenda of outlawing and criminalizing political opposition and free speech. It began with the [[IRS scandal]], and when exposed shifted to [[FISA abuse]] and persecution of journalists who printed negative stories. Blackmail and pollical spying on opposition candidates and campaigns became the hallmark of Obama's second term. The cover up of the [[Muellergate timeline 2019|Muellergate scandal]] was used by Democrats to surreptitiously win back the House in 2018 and bring about the phony [[impeachment scam]].
[[File:112 2016 b4-napo-comey-hoove8201 c0-389-1420-1216 s885x516 (1).jpg|right|300px|thumb|In the Comey era, the FBI returned to the use of sexual innuendo and domestic spying on political opponents.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/04/19/comey-trump-cnn-news-hook/</ref>]]
With Obama's harassment of political opponents, first with the [[IRS scandal]], then through illegal surveillance and [[FISA abuse]],<ref>[https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/03/08/doj-political-surveillance-from-the-irs-in-2011-to-the-fisa-court-in-2016/ DOJ Political Surveillance – From the IRS in 2011 to the FISA Court in 2016], Posted on March 8, 2020 by sundance. theconservativetreehouse.com</ref> Obama won re-election in [[2012 United States Presidential Election|2012]],<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EULOYZ-mAG0</ref> even though the Republican Party held on to all its 2010 gains.

This early self-deception by Democrats repeated in mainstream media after the election of Obama - that America had shifted its historic roots from center-right to center-left, had disastrous results in the coming decade. The repression of free speech in media in favor of a pro-communist line contributed to a deterioration in race relations based on communist lies and [[propaganda]]. The [[Obama riots]] destroyed Black communities, and the [[2020 Leftwing insurrection]], led by Marxist whites in the name of "social justice", overestimated the willingness of the American people to embrace Marxist [[revolution]], cast off [[capitalism]], and abrogate their constitutional rights to a single party [[totalitarian]] regime governed by unelected Democrat bureaucrats and [[civil servants]]. An entire generation of Americans grew up in the Obama years, where opportunity to improve one's own economic wellbeing was virtually non-existent, [[brainwash]]ed by Marxist doctrine in [[public school]]s and educational institutions, to resort to [[violence]] and attempt to tear down the whole system.

While most Blacks looked for the freedom and opportunity America promised, a generation of dangerous and [[intolerant]] white youth walked the streets, looking to violently maim and destroy anyone who opposed their Marxist agenda.

====Obamagate scandal====
[[File:Obama post election strategy Blame Russia start WW3.jpg|right|300px|thumb]]
:{{See also|Obamagate timeline|FBI scandal|Ukrainian collusion|Trump-Russia collusion hoax}}
In 2016 the party [[collude]]d with Russia and the Ukraine to interfere in the United States presidential election.<ref>https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/12/16/horowitz-report-confirms-john-solomons-scoop-fbi-spreadsheet-regarding-steele-dossier/</ref><ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/12/world/europe/ukraine-paul-manafort.html</ref> The DNC has been sued for [[civil rights]] violations of [[Carter Page]] for the DNC-funded fraud against the FISA court.<ref>https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/480678-carter-page-files-lawsuit-against-democratic-national-committee-over</ref>

More than 27 Obama appointees and Democrat operatives were fired, removed, demoted or reassigned in the criminal attempt to interfere in the 2016 presidential election and later the [[coup]] plot against President Trump.

The Mueller Report produced no evidence whatsoever that Russia hacked the DNC. Neither Special Council Robert Mueller, nor the FBI, nor the DOJ, nor the Dept. of Homeland Security, nor the NSA, nor the CIA, nor the mainstream media, nor the Clinton campaign ever investigated DNC servers.

====The New McCarthyism====
In 2016, Russian hackers attempted, and failed, to hack into state election board computers. No federal facilities, as far as is known, were attempted. However, no federal law enforcement agency, not the FBI, CIA, [[Department of Homeland Security]] or any other federal, state, or municipal law enforcement agency ever investigated an alleged hack of the Democratic National Committee. The confluence of these two events - attempted hacking of state election boards and the publication of leaked emails from the DNC by [[WikiLeaks]] - coupled with the Obama administration's [[FISA abuse]] were melded by CIA Director John Brennan into the Russia collusion hoax.

The debunked Trump-Russia [[fake news]] morphed itself into a [[xenophobic]] reaction against Russian bots and anything Russian to explain all the Democratic party's self-inflicted misfortunes. These Russianbot [[conspiracy theory|conspiracy theories]] inspired some of the most absurd conjecture to explain social phenomenon and justify the most venomous hatred, in the spoken word of Democrat leaders, media elites, and violent actions of the [[extreme left]].

The release of Democratic National Committee (DNC) emails provided to [[Wikileaks]] by Seth Rich<ref>https://youtu.be/Kp7FkLBRpKg</ref> showed clear [[collusion]] between Clinton, [[mainstream media]] outlets, and the DNC to smear [[Bernie Sanders]].

security [[counterintelligence]] linked to foreign intelligence service operators, including [[China]], [[Iran]], [[North Korea]], and [[Russia]] and who has worked as a consultant and subject-matter expert supporting the [[Department of Defense]], [[FBI]] and US [[Intelligence Community]] (USIC) agencies such as the [[DIA]], [[CIA]], [[NSA]], NGA [National Geospatial Agency], and the [[DHS]] I&A [Office of Intelligence and Analysis] supporting counterintelligence, and [[law enforcement]] investigations and whom the ''[[New York Times]]'' describes as the "always the smartest person in the room,<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/09/opinion/sunday/garrison-courtney-spies-contracts.html</ref> testified under oath Smartmatic and its role in the [[2020 Presidential election]] thusly:
{{quotebox-float|"In my expert opinion, the DVS [ [[Dominion Voting Systems]] ] Democracy Suite, [[Scytl]]/SOE Software/eClarity and Smartmatic have not produced auditable results in the 2020 election. It is evident that ballots were not properly validated, system records were not kept, and the system experience considerable instability even several days prior to November 4, 2020 that require DVS to implement software changes at the last minute. In addition, the disparity in data distribution after 4:30 AM on November 4, 2020 indicates significant systemic anomalies that were widespread among all battleground states. The evidence is both extensive and persuasive and indicates large-scale [[fraud]] by remote operators.

"I conclude that a combination of lost cryptographic key contained on stolen USB memory cards, serious exploitable system and [[software]] vulnerabilities and operating system backdoor in DVS, Scytl, SOE Software/eClarity and Smartmatic created the perfect environment to commit widespread fraud in all states where these systems are installed. My analysis of the 2020 Election from ''NY Times'' data shows statistical anomalies across the battleground state votes. These failures are widespread and systemic - and sufficient to invalidate the [[vote]] counts.

"I conclude with high confidence that the election 2020 data were altered in all [[swing states|battleground states]] resulting in a hundreds of thousands of votes that were cast for [[President Trump]] to be transferred to [[Vice President Biden]]. These alterations were the result of systemic and widespread exploitable vulnerabilities in DVS, Scytl/SOE Software and Smartmatic systems that enabled operators to achieve
the desired results. In my view, the evidence is overwhelming and incontrovertible."<ref>https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mied.350905/gov.uscourts.mied.350905.1.19.pdf</ref>}}

====Foreign collusion====
On September 12, 2018, by President Donald J. Trump signed Executive Order 13848 entitled, “Executive Order on Imposing Certain Sanctions in the Event of Foreign Interference in a United States Election.”<ref>https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-imposing-certain-sanctions-event-foreign-interference-united-states-election/</ref> In that executive order President Trump declared a national emergency and the 2020 presidential election was conducted under this state of emergency. The order states that people and organizations located, in part, outside the [[United States]] are known to be able to, {{quotebox|“interfere in or undermine public confidence in United States elections, including through the unauthorized accessing of [[election]] and campaign infrastructure or the covert distribution of [[propaganda]] and [[disinformation]].” The EO further states that this foreign interference in U.S. elections, “constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the [[national security]] and [[foreign policy]] of the United States.”}}
Di Dongsheng, a vice-dean at the School of International Relations at Renmin University in Beijing, made public statements before a large audience on November 28, 2020:
{{Quotebox-float|"We know that the Trump administration is in a trade war with us, so why can’t we fix the Trump administration? Why did China and the US used to be able to settle all kinds of issues between 1992 and 2016?" he asked. "I’m going to throw out something maybe a little bit explosive here. It’s just because we have people at the top. We have our old friends who are at the top of America’s core inner circle of power and influence."

"During the US-China trade war, [[Wall Street]] tried to help, and I know that my friends on the US side told me that they tried to help, but they couldn’t do much. But now we’re seeing Biden was elected, the traditional elite, the political elite, the establishment, they’re very close to Wall Street, so you see that, right?"

"Trump has been saying that Biden’s son has some sort of global foundation. Have you noticed that? Who helped [Hunter] build the foundations? Got it? There are a lot of deals inside all these."<ref>[https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2020/12/08/top_chinese_intellectual_boasts_about_old_friends_who_are_at_the_top_of_americas_core_inner_circle_of_power_and_influence.html#!

==Symbols==
[[Image:HammerAndSickle.png|right|100px|thumb|Displaying the hammer and sickle is illegal in some parts of the world because of its [[genocidal]] history.]]
The most common symbol for the party is the donkey, although the party itself never officially adopted this symbol.<ref>[http://www.democrats.org/a/2005/06/history_of_the.php History of the Democratic Donkey].</ref> Some historians suggest the jackass was born 1828 when Jackson was sometimes called a jackass by his opponents as a play on his name. A political cartoon depicting Jackson riding and directing a donkey (representing the Democratic Party) was published in 1837. A political cartoon by [[Thomas Nast]] in 1870 revived the donkey as a symbol for the Democratic Party. Cartoonists ever since have followed Nast and used the donkey to represent the Democrats, and the elephant to represent the Republicans.

In the early 20th century, the traditional symbol of the Democratic Party in many states was the rooster, as opposed to the Republican eagle.

There is no official color, but since election night 2000 blue has become the identification color of the Democratic Party for maps, while the red has become the color of the Republicans. Increasingly blue is used by Democrats for promotions (e.g. BuyBlue, BlueFund) and by the party itself, which in 2006 unveiled the "Red to Blue Program" to support Democratic candidates running against Republican incumbents in the 2006 midterm election.

The song ''Happy Days Are Here Again'' is the unofficial song of the Democratic Party. It was used prominently when Roosevelt was nominated for president at the 1932 Democratic National Convention and remains a sentimental favorite for Democrats today. During the [[Bill Clinton|Clinton]] era, the Fleetwood Mac song "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" became a popular song at Democratic events, reflecting the growing prominence of Baby Boomers in the party.

Some critics refer to the group disparagingly as the [[Democrat Party]].
