Here we go again:
It's Okay To Hate Republicans," writes University of Michigan professor Susan Douglas in an article published Monday, saying that innocent, inquisitive Democrats have fallen victim to the GOP's "mean-spirited rhetoric" for the past thirty years.
"I hate Republicans," Douglass' article begins. "I can't stand the thought of spending the next two years watching Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Ted Cruz, Darrell Issa or any of the legions of other blowhards denying climate change, thwarting immigration reform or championing fetal 'personhood.'" [emphasis added]
Here we see the tell-tale crypto-religious moral supremacism justifying the burgeoningly open justification of left-wing repression. Think "Professor" Douglas will have any objection to Barack Obama's coup de tat?
And then there's the equally tell-tale left-wing psychological projection:
Even before Reagan the left hated conservatives. Look at what they did during the Goldwater era. The left eviscerated the 1964 GOP candidate. Then there was the left and the media’s claim that conservatives and Republicans killed Kennedy because of the “hate” for him in Texas”–when in fact it was a Communist sympathizer who killed Kennedy, not any conservative or Republican. But even this fifty-year-old history is myopic. FDR spent his entire presidency spreading hate for capitalism, “the rich,” and the GOP.
To quote S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Clint Barton....
...."[Susan Douglas] and we remember [the past eighty years of American political discourse] very differently."
Trust us, Susie, we don't like you very much, either.
Exit question: Since "Professor" Douglas wrote this hatemongering in a publication rather than getting caught on tape exhorting her ideological bigotry in a class lecture, will the usual walkback following its publicizing not be forthcoming, or will it merely be delayed?
