The Atlantic Publishes All You Need to Know About the Left

Last week, The Atlantic rendered a great service to those of us who contend that America is in the midst of a civil war between the right and the left. It provided a smoking gun -- actually, the gunshot itself -- to those of us who contend that the left (never to be confused with liberals) is intent on dismantling Western civilization.

It published articles by two left-wing writers, one by Peter Beinart titled "The Racial and Religious Paranoia of Trump's Warsaw Speech," and one by its national correspondent, James Fallows, written on the same theme as Beinart's.

The subject of both articles was President Donald Trump's speech in Warsaw, Poland, last week, a speech described by The Wall Street Journal as "a determined and affirmative defense of the Western tradition."

  1. Trump's Warsaw speech and his speech on the conduct of international relations early in the campaign we're both extensions of concepts of Locke and Rousseau. That individual sovereignty is the basis of all freedom. It is the basis of local government which in turn is the basis of state/regional government which in turn is the basis of national government. All those governments are the union of individual sovereignty and cultural and linguistic identity.

    The left wants to dissolve those bonds of common identity via the mechanisms of diversity non-assimilation. This in turn will break down the commonality at the state and then local levels. The individual then becomes a cypher. Subject rather than citizen. This is the the very model of Maxist- Leninist international socialism
