In 1989 the Chinese Tiananmen Square “student” popular uprising began. Their quest was more freedom and a voice in their governance. The Chinese Government eventually cracked down on the protests and thousands of Chinese citizens were killed by the Mongol contingency of the Chinese Army.
In the United States the response from the Chinese Government was ideologically reported by the Academic and Legacy Media leftists as a hard-right crackdown. An insufferable conflagration of historical reference. The push-back by the Government was a reaction from the left side of the political continuum, not the right.
The government in control of the individual, and extending their controlling influence, is the left, not the right. Communism, Socialism and totalitarianism are political ideologies on the left side of the freedom continuum.
The hard-right is the push toward freedom and liberty, not more government. Quite the opposite, the students and protestors were aiming for freedom, they were the “Right“, the government was on the “left” in opposition.
But the insufferable elitist media then, as today, refused to accept their ideological beliefs being displayed. So they obfuscated history, they obfuscated reality, and they sold a flawed construct of “right-wing” government murdering its own people.
Fast forward to today, 2012, and what do we witness? The exact same systemic narrative positioning of the radical left regarding the Occupy Wall Street group(s). From the Madison Project:
As we’ve noted before, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is a defamatory liberal hate group that seeks to shut down conservatives by tainting them as white supremacists.
The problem for them is that all the major hate that is taking place these days is coming from the left. How do they rectify this “unhelpful narrative?” They brand radical leftists as radical right! On their “hate map” they preposterously label Black Panther leader Malik Zulu Shabazz as radical right.
Now, Thomas Lifson of the American Thinker points out that they are doing the same for the Occupy Wall street Terrorists!
…The American Thinker article outlines the flawed construct: Did you know that the Occupy Movement is actually a part of the “radical right”? The movement, which received favorable comments from the commanding heights of the American left — President Obama, Nancy Pelosi, the New York Times, and MSNBC — has now shown itself to include very violent elements, including actual terrorists, who began a bomb plot in Cleveland, only to be apprehended before carrying out their program of terror.
The media has done its best to ignore the Occupy terrorists, but have now confessed. Perhaps drawing inspiration from Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who can lie with an utterly straight face about reality (what she said on tape about the Israeli ambassador, what happened on the floor of the DNC when the words Jerusalem and God were excised and then restored to the platform), the Southern Poverty Law Center has stepped in to solve the problem for the left. Re-define the Occupy movement as “radical right.”
Take a look at the latest from the “Hatewatch” page of the SPLC’s website:
The Southern Poverty Law Center has built-up a lucrative fundraising business enabling it to pay lavish salaries to those who drum up money on the basis of fighting racism and “hate groups.” The awkward fact that anti-black racial violence has diminished has not stopped it from developing other lures to keep this donations coming. The new favorite is to label supporters of traditional marriage as “hate groups.”
Now, the SPLC has gone one step further in its logic. If it is violent and bad, it must be right-wing. (continue reading)
