Victor Davis Hanson: The Left Has Pushed The Envelope<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Authored by Victor Davis Hanson via American Greatness,<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Why are our government, corporations, and popular culture colluding in mass suicide… to the delight of our enemies like Communist China?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Left is waging a full-fledged cultural revolution against traditional America. And the Maoist results are often as absurd as they are terrifying.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Special-counsel John Durham just issued his final report on wrongdoing within the FBI, CIA, and the Department of Justice.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The summary confirms that our premier investigatory and intelligence agencies interfered in the 2016 and 2020 presidential campaigns.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Directors and high-ranking FBI officials lied under oath. They misled Congress. They altered court documents and deceived federal judges.<\/p>\n

The FBI hired a foreign national to gather dirt on Donald Trump\u2019s 2016 campaign\u2014while he was being paid by the rival Hillary Clinton campaign.<\/p>\n

The FBI contracted Twitter to suppress news stories. It kept the Hunter Biden laptop under wraps, even as former intelligence officials flat out lied it was likely \u201cRussian disinformation.\u201d That was a blatant effort to aid the 2020 Biden campaign.<\/p>\n

The IRS just conceded whistleblowers were correct and the agency fired its entire multiyear audit team responsible for investigating Hunter Biden\u2019s purported tax irregularities.<\/p>\n

The agency claimed it was ordered to do so by the Department of Justice, headed by Biden\u2019s appointee Merrick Garland.<\/p>\n

California is facing a crushing $32 billion deficit. Yet it flirts with an $800 billion-dollar \u201creparations\u201d payout to the state\u2019s black residents.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

No one has any idea where the money for that would come from. No one can define who would qualify. No one can explain why a state that never allowed slavery eight generations ago now owes selected Californians billions of dollars it does not have.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One of the reparations board leaders asserts blacks might be willing to accept an \u201cinstallment\u201d plan of payments.<\/p>\n

The NAACP just issued a \u201ctravel alert\u201d advising blacks not to visit Florida.<\/strong> The announcement was timed to draw negative attention to conservative Florida Governor Ron DeSantis\u2019 announcement of a presidential bid.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chicago, Baltimore, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, and Indianapolis\u2014all outside Florida\u2014have the highest black murder rates in the nation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Florida in contrast, with a black population of 3.3 million, has the second largest number of black businesses in the nation. The chairman of the NAACP\u2019s board of directors is himself a Florida resident!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Black Lives Matter has just announced it lost millions of dollars in investments and ran up huge deficits.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The culprit was its former corrupt leadership.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Its extravagant spending, plush homes, and family hangers-on have nearly bankrupted the advocacy group. It cannot account for the millions of dollars in corporate guilt and protection money it leveraged following the George Floyd riots in 2020.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In New York, a threatening subway career criminal with 42 prior arrests was subdued by a bystander and died during the confrontation. The criminal is now deified. The would-be Samaritan is charged with felony manslaughter.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The deceased\u2019s uncle is vocal about his late nephew\u2019s confrontation. But he himself was just arrested with stolen property and armed with a knife. He was mysteriously still roaming the streets despite 70 prior arrests and current active arrest warrants.<\/p>\n

In almost every American city and town, biological males, with enormous advantages in size and\u00a0musculoskeletal\u00a0mass, routinely win women\u2019s sporting competitions.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

They are systematically destroying decades of progress that sought to ensure parity between men and women\u2019s sports.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Corporate America has joined this cultural revolution hysteria. Companies are apparently now hellbent on destroying their brands, profits, and net worth.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under pressure from the LGBTQ activists, the Los Angeles Dodgers reinvited the \u201cSisters of Perpetual Indulgence\u201d to celebrate Pride night at Dodger Stadium.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Catholics and Christians had objected to the\u00a0invitation because the\u00a0group\u2019s notoriety hinges on its sexualized and often pornographic mockery of Catholic ritual, the Holy Trinity, and Christian faith.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The supposedly courageous group would never dare extend its street-theater blasphemy\u00a0to other religious groups such as Muslims or Hindus.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Dodgers apparently do not care that Greater Los Angeles may be home to 6 million\u00a0Mexican American citizens and resident Hispanic immigrants. Most are Catholic and many were avid Dodger fans.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anheuser-Busch has nearly destroyed its best-selling Bud Light\u00a0brand by hiring transgender performance-art activist Dylan Mulvaney to hawk the\u00a0brand\u2014and his own transitioning\u2014to America\u2019s working classes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Disney corporation, for decades, has enjoyed multibillion-dollar concessions and a veritable 40-square mile private fiefdom gifted from the taxpayers of Florida.<\/p>\n

No matter. Disney has rebranded its films, amusement parks, and television offerings to reflect radical transgendered, gay, and race advocacies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The results so far are\u00a0billion-dollar losses in Disney stock,\u00a0subscribers, and viewers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A woke CNN has all but destroyed its once-global audience. It now has fewer viewers than certain popular podcasts.<\/p>\n

All these implosions are not just shocking but surreal. Why are our government, corporations, and popular culture colluding in mass suicide\u2014to the delight of our enemies like Communist China?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
