Liberal hypocrisy

Back in the Stone Age when I attended school there was a lot of bullying that went on. We didn't call it bullying back then. We just "picked on each other." Nobody went running to the principal to complain that somebody said something mean to us, and our parents certainly weren't going to the school to demand that the bad children be made to quit being mean to their baby. And, no, the police weren't called.

Today, there is a lot of attention given to bullying. Schools have enacted very strict policies against bullying. Advertisements appear on TV and radio stressing the importance of not bullying on social media or in person. We often hear on news reports about the problem of bullying and how to prevent it. Our First Lady has launched an anti-bullying emphasis to help stop it.

I don't have a problem with an effort to eliminate bullying. It can be damaging to the one being bullied, and, in the long run, to the bully. The problem I do have is that the ones who talk the most about eliminating bullying are often the ones who are most guilty of it.

Recently, professional golfer Lexi Thompson played golf with President Trump and Rush Limbaugh. Last week she announced she was leaving social media due to the hurtful comments that have been directed towards her for playing golf with Trump and Limbaugh. Whose business is it who she plays golf with? Evidently anyone who doesn't like the president feels it is appropriate to chastise anyone who dares plays golf with the president. Are these trolls not bullying this young lady because she played golf with a friend of hers?

We've seen this same hypocrisy played out from liberals ever since President Trump was elected to office. Maxine Waters encouraged people to confront anyone working in President Trump's administration leading to a number of people being bullied in restaurants and other public places putting them and their families at risk. People wearing MAGA hats have been bullied and even beaten by liberals who feel bullied if they hear something that hurts their feelings.

This post isn't supporting the president or a political party, but it is a rant against the hypocrisy that is often seen from radical liberals who despise the president. Chances are these are the same people who claim they don't attend church because of all the hypocrites there. These are the same people who want want young people to stop bullying others. Well...they are just doing what they see you doing to the people you don't like.
