Video: We are fighting the Left, not Liberals - Dennis Prager.

Liberals have been brainwashed into thinking the right is the enemy when the real enemy of Liberalism is the Left.

 Turning Point USA, Published on Jan 24, 2018
Dennis Prager of PragerU and other endeavours gave a superb speech at Turning Point USA's Annual Student Action Summit. The whole 57 minute video is well worth watching because he discusses some very important topics, but here are some of the most important points he raised in the first few minutes of the speech:

• We are fighting the Left, not Liberals.

This [point] will help you immensely in making converts or at least making people aware of what you’re fighting.

Liberals have been brainwashed into thinking the right is the enemy when the real enemy of Liberalism is the Left.

• Every American coin has what American stands for Liberty and in God we Trust, E pluribus unum.  All three repulse the Left.

• We are in a non-violent civil war.

• The Left wishes to undo the American Revolution.

The left has never been interested in Liberty except for abortion, they have no desire for individual freedom.

There were two revolutions at the end of the 18th Century, The American and the French.
They had very little in common. And the biggest difference between them was, one affirmed equality and one did not.

• The American revolution was for Liberty. The French revolution was for equality.

You cannot have Liberty and equality as equal values. The moment there is Liberty, there is inequality.
We believe in two equalities, one that we are all God’s Children, we all created in God’s image and therefore we are all equal. And that we are all equal before the Law.

The points he raised were also articulated in a column of his several years ago entitled: It’s a Civil War: What We Do Now

In this unprecedented crisis of values, this is what needs to be done:

1. Know and teach America’s core values.

In a nutshell, they are what I call the American Trinity: “In God we trust,” “Liberty” and “E Pluribus Unum.” The left has successfully made war on all three — substituting secularism for God and religion in as much of American life as possible; substituting equality (of result) for liberty; and multiculturalism is the opposite of “E Pluribus Unum.”

2. Recognise that we are fighting the left, not liberals.

Conservatives and centrists are no longer fighting liberals. We are fighting the left.
Liberalism believed in American exceptionalism; the left not only does not believe in it, the left opposes it.
Liberalism believed in creating wealth; the left is interested in redistributing it.
Liberalism believed in a strong defense. The left believes in cutting defense and a strong United Nations.
…

7. Acknowledge that we are in a non-violent civil war.

I write the words “civil war” with an ache in my heart. But we are in one.
Thank God this civil war is non-violent. But the fact is that the left and the rest of the country share almost no values. The American value system and the leftist value system are irreconcilable. If the left wins, America’s values lose. If American values prevail, the left loses.
