Here’s Daniel putting into laser focus why I no longer tolerate leftists and have removed them from my life.
Excerpt from FrontPage Magazine
Why is it so hard for the left to be thankful? The answer is as easy as pumpkin pie. The left is a movement built on resentment. And resentment and gratitude are opposing emotions.
That is why the left really hates Thanksgiving.
Resentment is the force that gives the left meaning.
What animates the left is the conviction that everything (except their own tastes, preferences and opinions) is terrible and must be reformed until it too is like them.
The militant lefty is an overgrown brat who never made the emotional transition from the funk of total unfairness that teenagers inhabit to the appreciation for life of the mature adult. Picking a fight at the Thanksgiving table is exactly the sort of thing a teenage brat would do. That’s why there are a dozen guides telling lefties exactly how to pick an unwinnable fight whose only purpose is to ruin a meal.
The family argument isn’t an unfortunate side effect of leftist politics. It’s the whole point.
The resentful left doesn’t really fight for anything. Its resentful causes have no end point. There will never be a time when race relations, the environment, social mobility and caloric intakes are good enough for them to hang up their hats. The left maintains a perpetual state of crisis because it justifies a perpetual state of resentment.
The left isn’t actually fighting for anything. It’s fighting against things. Big things and little things. It’s fighting against America. And it’s fighting against families sitting down to Thanksgiving dinner.
Thanksgiving is the tradition of an optimistic and humble people. That is who Americans are.
The War on Thanksgiving is the campaign of a hostile leftist movement that is pessimistic and arrogant. Ruining Thanksgiving is its mission. And it isn’t out to win an argument, but to ruin an America tradition.
If we lose our ability to be thankful for the good things in our lives, we lose everything.

Jettisoned my last liberal during Obama’s reign of terror.
Realized that we had absolutely nothing in common and there was nothing we could talk about other than the weather.
Bingo!!
P Henry,not even the weather. It turns into a climate change denier screech fest.
“Thanksgiving is the tradition of an optimistic and humble people. That is who Americans are.”
Not if Progs get their way by pooping their diapers, going on hunger strikes and holding their breath/cocks/pants up.
Point your finger and laugh, laugh long and hard.
Be optimistic that ridicule will work, appeasement sure hasn’t.
Even President Trump uses it, look how much it bothers them.
The only thing left, they are not prepared for what is left.
The majority of Leftists are the most unhappy people you will meet. A very sad existence.
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—
Sound familiar?
My immediate family is conservative and informed. No leftist would stand a chance at our table. 😉 Great article.
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
Fond wishes for a Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends at IOTWReport. We are immensely thankful for POTSU Trump in the WH.
I don’t understand any conservative who would willingly invite their brat children (read college students) into their homes if they ruined the last Thanksgiving. Let them starve on the quad.
“Thankfulness” IS NOT ENOUGH.
In a word,
these days, the only thing that they’ll understand is
REVENGE.
And I’m *COOL* with that.
If a leftist won’t even agree that Islam is a deadly cult then they can’t be trusted for any sentient thought.
Want to really rattle a leftist? Just talk about the good things in your life and how happy you are.
Most lefties have no faith in God, who would they give thanks to?
