IRONY SWEET KARMA! HE WANTED ATTENTION AND HE GOT IT.
THE WORLD IS OUT TO GET HIM. THAT'S WHAT JUSSIE WANTED US TO BELIEVE, ISN'T IT. WELL NOW IT REALLY IS.
Jussie is a unique case. But he represents an all too common pattern.
Because to Leftist Democrats and the Leftist media and Hollywood, victumhood is everything. Victumhood is virtuous. Victumhood elevates you to the top of the intersectionality hierarchy. Victumhood grants you membership into a special identity-based club of those who are entitled to reparations in the form of celebrity and special opportunities.
The Left has formulated a narrative which paints America as a Nation of homophobes, bigots, racists and xenophobes. This image forms the foundation, the platform, upon which the Left has built it's basis for political justification.
The Democrats have imaged a world that their leaders must save us from. The Party leaders and those competing for office are the heroes who say they will rescue the suffering victims. The greater the suffering the greater the hero who "must save us" - The more we need the courageous and righteous politician to fight our battle.
The Right can't save us - OH NO - because Democrats want us to believe that Republicans and especially Conservatives are guilty of creating this world with so many victims and so much suffering. Libertarians are just ridiculous because they think we don't need government to save us from practically anything.
In order for the hero to be legitimate they must truly understand the suffering of the victims. They must acknowledge and accept the image of our country as a nation that is dominated by evil oppression. The hero can never emerge from the evil class of wealthy white privileged oppressors. And of course, they must be a Democrat!
In addition, the Left must never let us believe that Republican and Conservative ideas create a better world. The opportunities for advancement in life must never be perceived as coming from policies put forth by the Right. So today's fact of historically low Black and Hispanic unemployment is a disaster from a Democratic political perspective.
It doesn't matter that America's success is the envy of the world. Ideals such as Capitalism, free markets and American Exceptionalism are the problem because there can never be justice in a world that doesn't distribute wealth. To Democrats, equality by definition equates to equality of results. So billionaires are as much proof of a country filled with injustice as people below the poverty line.
This warped understanding of economics, the power of competition and the nature of human behavior explains part of the appeal of Socialism. It was inevitable that the Democratic move to the Left would end up on the doorstep of Socialism.
The game of politics for the Left is like a game of "Identity Twister" with the winner, the most viable and worthy candidate, being the one who touches the most "Intersectionality dots." But instead of the real game of Twister by Milton Bradley where the dots are the colored plastic spots on the rubber mat you lay down to play that game, in the game of "Identity Twister" that I am making up, the dots represent victims of racism, bigotry and homophobia, xenophobia, class, etc.
There is just one very big problem with all this. The Foundation upon which the Democratic platform is built is only as strong as the narrative is that they want us to believe. Therefore, the Democratic Party needs victims. They need evidence that our Nation is filled with racists, bigots, homophobes and xenophobes. And they need those evil people to not just exist in the privacy of their own thoughts - they need those evil doers to be doing evil.
The Democrats need visible acts of oppression to justify their heroes who must rise up to meet and defeat the antagonist, who is of course, a white Supremacist Republican wearing a red #MAGA hat. Just ask Nick Sandmann, the Christian junior high school student.
What Democrats love and admire most of all is when the victim shows the courage to stand up to their oppressor. That makes sense since human nature is to love the survivors and the fallen martyrs. American's are famous for rooting for the underdog.
Victims validate and perpetuate the Leftist narrative. Victims are so prized and rewarded by the Democratic Party and the Leftist media that some sick Leftist are willing to fake it - to act the part. Enter Jussie Smollett. There are hundreds of little Jussie's.
THE HYPOCRISY IS GREATER THAN THE TRUTH.
