Genocide does not begin with knives and bullets but with
words. It is proceeded with the continuous stream of defamation against a people
group, which becomes a tsunami of cultural bias and hatred.
Genocide is one-sided. It will train its focus on a negative
trait to the exclusion of anything positive, whatever might produce compassion
for this defamed people. The genocide of abortion has been made possible by
reducing the baby to a collection of cells, just a part of the mother’s own
body, almost like an unwanted cancer.
Anti-Semitism has thrived historically by reducing the Jewish
people to big noses and bloodsuckers and has been fueled by jealousy. However,
the mainstream media and the universities have adopted another target. Fueled
by a militant political agenda, they have made another form of racism highly acceptable,
even fashionable. Without shame or any hesitation, this group is even
highlighted in the titles of their articles: “White Evangelicals Made a Deal
With (sic) the Devil. Now What?” (New York Magazine, Dec. 5, 2020)
This is a favorite ploy - to transform their targets into
hypocrites. This has the effect of nullifying all the good things that
evangelicals have traditionally done. Consequently, it is all hypocritical.
Instead, we are in league with the Devil. Sarah Jones, therefore, began by charging,
“In the end, white Christian America stood by its man.” This has become a
capital offense.
Even now, we are experiencing the severe consequences of
this diatribe in terms of employment, vandalism, arson, intimidation, and even
the shooting of Christians. Why then is the media unwilling to connect the
dots!
What is this terrible thing that we have done, our
unpardonable sin? We have voted for Donald Trump, a man who has stood against
abortion and in favor of our traditional values – the values that had built American
into the model for the rest of the world. Has his administration been
scandal-ridden, as others have been? Hardly! Had there been just one indictable
scandal, the opposition would have gladly used it to hang Trump.
However, all their attempts have failed. Nevertheless, we
are still in league with the Devil for voting for Trump, even though 20% of
white evangelicals didn’t vote for him. Nevertheless, the entire group is
indicted, and the media still persists in their racist attempt to lynch us as a
group. This is no different from attempts to lynch Asians for their successes
in the university and in the business world or to lynch blacks for the
overriding incidence of black on white crime or dependence on the welfare
system.
Instead, justice has always been about convicting individuals
based on their behavior, not on their skin color or beliefs. Do Sarah Jones and
the NYM no longer believe in this? They do not say so explicitly. However, they
hypocritically act as if they do not believe in this once honored principle of
justice. Instead, we are all guilty being as members of a disdained group of
people. Jones concludes her diatribe with her indictment of the republican
party and the white evangelical:
·
A party out of step with most voters must either
reform, or it must cheat. This, too, is something the modern GOP has in common
with the Christian right. Democracy is the enemy. People can’t be trusted with
their own souls. Leave them to their own devices, and they make the wrong
choices, take the easy way out, threaten everything holy. They need a savior,
whether they like it or not.
These obviously absurd set of charges are not even worth
addressing. Instead, they stand as a testimony to the power of the lie and the
readiness of our elite institutions to make use of them, even if they are not
true and cause hatred, racial division, and class warfare.
