I finally have begun to understand the liberal mindset. The liberal mindset is far more complex than just a political ideology. The liberal mindset is much more primitive and base than mental or intellectual concepts.

Liberal love victims. They will support anyone or anything they see as a victim whether it is real or unreal. This gives them that warm "feel good" emotion of self worthiness. It is difficult for non-liberals to understand why their choices and actions seem so bizarre. The liberals only want that warm "feel good" emotion regardless of who get hurt. Logic, common decency, truth and justice become over ridded by the need for that "feel good" emotion when giving support to the alleged victim.

An example of this is Kathy Griffin and Reality Winner. Kathy Griffin posed with a vile picture of a bloody beheaded President Trump. Most people were offended by her lack of civility and sense of decency. As a result it ruined her career as a comedic entertainer. She tried to apologize but got no immediate feed back from either the public or her sponsors. In less that 48 hours after the apology, she claimed that she was a victim of the entire Trump family’s ire and they were the reason that her career was ruined. She staked out her claim on victim hood and started getting support by the liberals. She claims now that the photograph is a freedom of speech statement and is protected by the Constitution. Now she has tons of money pouring in from liberals because she is now a self defined victim.

Reality Winner is the source of leaks from the NSA. Most decent American believe that this is treason and she should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. But now she has become a victim and thousands of dollars are being raised thru a gofundme account for her legal defense. Another famous victim was Michel Brown of Ferguson fame. The liberal’s support resulted in millions of dollars of property damage, looting, destruction of local business, and the end of a policeman’s career in law enforcement. Michael Brown’s mother got an expense paid trip to Geneva on our tax dollars because she and her family were victims of a proven justified shooting of her son.
How many times have we heard that a criminal should not be fully prosecuted and given leniency because he/she was a VICTIM of an abusive childhood. broken home, crime ridden neighborhood, sexual abuse, and the list goes on.

A liberal government is motivated by the “feel good” emotion of providing a service to the weak, the disabled, those of unfortunate circumstances and the disenfranchised. Services provided by a liberal government are the services that provide the most satisfaction to program creators while ignoring the real needs and desires of the benefactors.


Liberals detest losers unless they are victims and then they are welcomed and rewarded. Winners are always detested and attacked with vitriol. When someone becomes a winner then someone must be a loser. How else can the concept of “participation trophies” be explained? Everyday we hand out “participation trophies” in the form of welfare, food stamps, free medical, and other benefits while the true winners are the one providing their financial support thru taxes while providing for themselves. Herman Cain and Ben Carson are derided because they did not play the “victim card” and overcame challenges and became winners by their own efforts. Their achievements are contrary to the liberal philosophy that disadvantaged individuals can not achieve success or a meaningful life without the help of liberal big government programs.

Playing the “victim card” certainly has its advantages. The “victim card” reduces the burden of self imposed wrong doings and frees the individual of full responsibility for the actions taken and shifts the blame elsewhere.

Perhaps this can help explain the totally obtuse political atmosphere in America today. Hillary Clinton clearly lost the presidential election with less than 15% of all counties in the country voting in her favor. Yet she still goes on and on and still curries some favors from her liberal supporters. She was the loser but rather accept the obvious she plays the “victim card.” At last count there were more than 26 organizations, agencies, powerful people (Including Obama) including the New York Times and the Washington Post and the main stream media that she claims were responsible for her loss. This is why the liberals and the liberal media are still hanging on to the “Russian Collaboration” without a shred of evidence and are nit picking at every thing they can to discredit Trump to validate the latest “victim”

Higher education at our Universities has become a oxymoron. The University administrations "bubble wrap" their students to protect them from individual thoughts, concepts, or different viewpoints. "Safe Spaces" are found only in the academic environment and not found in any working career setting. The loss of freedom of speech and the loss of the freedom of expression of new ideas are a major facet of the "bubble wrap" protection of a university campus. Instead of achieving the tools to cope with the inevitable "stings and prickles of an outrageous fortune” and the will of self determination for individual success, universities are creating a path to failure justified by becoming a victim thus escaping full responsibility. The only career path that they are prepared for is to be an academic at a liberal university.
