Biden’s idea is utopian nonsense the Founders’ idea was grounded in millennia of evidence and Judeo-Christian tradition. When the Founders said that “all men are created equal,” they meant specifically that human beings had been “endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” They did not mean, as Biden suggests, that all human beings ought to be made equal in result, or that indeed, all human beings are equal in all capacities. Biden and his ilk have used a misinterpretation of one Founding principle - “equality” - to vitiate the natural rights for which the Founders originally fought. Respect for the Founding means respect for founding principles. Biden’s response: He pledged to utilize the executive branch to work around the Supreme Court’s ruling.

Thus, while Democrats fulminate over supposed threats to democracy, a federal judge this week ruled that the Biden administration violated the First Amendment in pressuring social media companies to restrict free speech regarding COVID-19 and the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, among others the Supreme Court ruled that the Biden White House had violated its constitutional boundaries in waiving student loan debt. And the quest for a perfect world must begin in tearing down such institutions with whatever means are at our disposal. The Declaration of Independence was a lie the Constitution was merely a guise for power. We are not free until everyone is truly free.”Īmerica, to these types, is a platform for utopianism rather than a set of ideals worthy of emulation. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., similarly tweeted, “ This July 4th, we must remember that we stand on stolen land toiled by enslaved Africans and recommit ourselves to the fight for freedom, equality, & justice so that these ideals are accessible to everyone, not just a privileged few.
Today is a great day to demand Reparations Now.” Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., tweeted, “The Declaration of Independence was written by enslavers and didn’t recognize Black people as human. Why is it that liberals in the United States are so much less proud of America than conservatives? These days, the answer liberals typically give is America’s inherent sinfulness there is nothing in the American founding worth conserving. In fact, Democratic love of country has always fallen far behind that of Republicans, even during the Obama era, when it hit a temporary high of just over 50% (Republicans at the time said they were extremely proud of the country at a rate of approximately 70%). That’s the question this July 4 as just 29% of Democrats say they’re extremely proud of the country, accompanied by just 33% of Independents and 60% of Republicans. I’d be surprised if Shapiro himself didn’t understand this contradictory dynamic, and actively seek public humiliation, on a regular basis, for the sake of his career.Īnd in that regard, Shapiro is certainly succeeding.What, precisely, is it about America you love?
The recommendation algorithms on social media might be complex and somewhat mysterious, but they generally favor engagement thus, controversy, followed by mass-mockery, is an ideal way to attract an incredible amount of attention. Retweets, comments, jokes, and memes (and articles like this) only serve in Shapiro’s favor. Shapiro has, seemingly, only benefited from the mass mockery sparked by his deliriously bad takes.
Yes, the man talks like a VHS tape on fast-forward, has an abundance of poorly thought-out opinions, and a puritanical attitude to fun music videos.īut being the punchline of a joke has never negatively affected Shapiro’s ability to reach millions on social media (o n Facebook, Shapiro is followed by 7 million people, and almost 3 million on Twitter). But the world has been making fun of Shapiro for years, and it's starting to get stale.
