Why The Left has Turned Against The Masses

[silverfaun]

Another brilliant insight into the lefts obsession in curtailing our freedoms and Freedom of the press.

We must not allow a few politicians to derail this reform just because they are in a high population ethnic electorate and their ethnic electorate want to see 18c stay, why is this? this is something we should all be on our guard against.

Politicians are elected to represent all Australians not just the few in their electorate, we mustn't be dictated to by the squeaky wheel but fight for all Australians to have the same rights and freedoms.

The arcane argument thet we will all turn into racists and bigots if we are not chained up is the mantra of the left and Conroy and Gillard were the masterminds behind the shameful push to restrict ordinary Australians.

This act, in the end, saw Gillard off and so she should be but the fight still goes on and the Left should be exposed for the shameful restrictions they are supporting: read on

In recent years, the Left has become more and more cut off from ordinary people, and now views the state, not the masses, as the best guarantor of truth and fairness.

And so its old belief that people could be trusted to think and speak freely, and to reach ­rational conclusions, has been replaced by a poisonous, pat­ernalistic conviction that if we hear the wrong thing we might instantly turn into psychotic racists or morons.

Behind the Left’s love of section 18C lies a far larger historical story about its abandonment of its old liberal ideals, and its vicious turning against the masses it once might have fought for.

The Left no longer believes people should be protected from “tyrannies”, but rather than we must be protected from ourselves and our base instincts.
