Why Liberals Hate America
In his essay “Why Do Liberals Hate America”, Moore focuses on the perception American’s have about Democrats and their beliefs. He argues that modern liberals are misguided, but not evil. He states that liberals have different beliefs about religion than Republicans do. He compares how Republicans love America more than liberals. Moore’s statements make it very clear he is very one sided. Moore’s view on the beliefs of the liberals shows he is obviously a Republican. Moore as a Republican argues that Liberals or like he calls them “the modern left” shouldn’t be allowed to do what they want which is their right. Republicans focus on what they think is right, but don’t care about what needs to be done. He assumes that liberals are just misguided …show more content…
Moore assumes that the Democrats don’t mind ceding power to the state. He goes on to say that liberals gave “momentum to the uprising division in our country.” Moore implies that liberals are to blame for the division in our country. Moore focuses on the president’s praise for other countries, health care and schooling system. He says the president should be focused on the bad that country has done to their people instead of on their education and health care. The people who are supporting Donald trump are the ones who wish to make America the focus of our problems. Moore argues that liberals hate America because it’s the thing to do since liberals think it’s not “cool to love America.” Moore adds that you don’t see as many liberals waving a lot of flags as Republicans do at their rallies therefore; they don’t love America as much. Moore states that immigrants wave their flags to be offensive on purpose and states that he is for immigration which he obviously isn’t. He simply makes that assumption because they choose to represent their nationality. Liberals feel that everyone should have the right to make choices and decisions that are good for them. They care about America as much as Republicans they just show it differently. They want to get the job rate back to how it used to be. They also want to make sure the teachers as well as the students are taken care of. Moore states that Liberals don’t understand that economic freedom is the core of human

    If one thing is for sure, statues of America’s “historic figures” are arguably one of the lesser evils humans have had to face. The recent removal of several objectionable statues across the United States has sparked a debate amongst its citizens, Dennis Prager and Robert Kuttner being two of them. After reading “Goodbye, Columbus” and “Those Who Don’t Fight Evil Fight Statues”, I found their arguments to be relatively similar, but each with a unique rationale. What the two seemed to agree on was that leftists often fail to identify the real threat in a political issue. Prager uses the example of leftists attacking anti-Islamists instead of Islamists, the greater enemy in the Syrian civil war. I found myself agreeing with Prager in that leftists…

    To support his assertion, Moore exemplifies how senators Joe Liebertman and Herbert Kohl prefer to go after MTV while "they are the one responsible for massive failure of American education." He also notes that political leaders are not unable to know about this, but in fact they are not "challenged with anything interesting or exciting. They have decided to have a bigger priority to build another bomber than to educate our children. Through this contrast imagery, Moore uses statistics and references strategy to give readers a provoking point for them to distinguish what is needed necessarily and what…

    Lewis challenges his audience to take action in the protest that will alert people of the racism African Americans go through and to establish equality no matter the person’s race. Many African Americans suffer through abuse physically and have put up with this in order to gain equality. The government also does not provide aid and instead proceeds to keep the protester’s ideas under wraps from the public. The government, in their own view, ignore the protester’s claim of the officials being unjust to maintain their position of power. Equality is for everyone. The beliefs by which America was built on the support…

    Henry Payne's cartoon "For Illegal Immigrants by Illegal Immigrants" shows us the Irony of Donald Trump wanting to build a Wall/ Fence, to keep illegal immigrants out of the united states. Payne's cartoon is ironic because Trump wants to get rid of immigrants but yet immigrants are the ones that do the dirty jobs other legal people don’t want to do. Trump wants illegal immigrants to build the very wall that will keep the out of a country that offers liberty and many opportunities for all kinds of people. Payne’s cartoon has bias against the fact that Donald Trump Wants to build a wall to keep immigrants out of the United States. Payne’s cartoon will help my paper because it tells people that are in favor of the wall being built that without…

    On the day of elections "…31 percent of all black men in Florida are prohibited from voting because they have a felony on their record. Harris and Bush knew that removing the names of ex-felons from the voter rolls would keep thousands of black citizens out of the voting booth" (4). He later goes on to state that "90 percent of those who were allowed to vote" couldn't because of this statistic (4). It is my belief that this is true, and I am glad to find when reading this book that Moore has very meticulously stated how Bush committed a "mass fraud" (4). I am intrigued by the way Moore describes these frauds and how he places blame on "…Florida, Bush, Harris, and company…" (4.) I think Moore depicts this scenario very well and makes most Americans who tended to believe that the way the vote turned out in Florida was legitimate, is in reality actually fraudulent and self-destructive to the workings of our government by placing Bush in…

    It is appalling that many of us are so narrow-minded that we can't tolerate a few people with ideas significantly different from our own. It's appalling that evangelical Christians are practically absent from entire professions, such as academia, the media, and filmmaking. It's appalling that people should be content to cut themselves off from everyone unlike themselves.” At times his tone is sarcastic for e.g. “In fact, any registered Republican who contemplates a career in academia these days is both a hero and a fool so, in a semi-self-selective pattern, brainy people with generally liberal social mores flow to academia, and brainy people with generally conservative mores flow…

    As we know, Michael Moore is a liberal film producer, and sometimes subjective, who criticizes the problems that affect the United States of America. His documentary Capitalism: A love story is not the exception. This is an informative documentary that shows us the reality of this economic system, Capitalism. It shows in a very clear, realistic, and even sarcastic way the consequences that affected and still affecting in a really bad way the US of America, and the price that Americans have to pay for being a Capitalist country.…

    Over the course of the past few days, I have been paying close attention to my opinions regarding certain political topics. As a whole, I have discovered that I do not possess strong liberal or strong conservative viewpoints. For the most part, I am in between: not strongly associating with either side. However, there were a few statements that caught my attention and triggered my thought process.…

    Quickly, after the election of President Barack Obama an explosion of Alt-Right populism affected mainstream politics. Grassroot groups like the Tea Party became vehemently angry with government. Tea party members cried for action on issues such as immigration, stronger stance against terrorism, and limiting government and bureaucracy. A serious issue was created against the problems of government but some racist undertones came along with it. Many of these racist insults were hurled at President Obama. Some racist Tea Party members and other Alt-Right members would constantly question Obama’s citizenship and say he was born in Kenya. For example, according to the Huffington Post, “A knot of protesters waved racially insulting signs including…

    One universal challenge that Ha and other refugees struggle with is being ridiculed and judged because they are not of the same religion as everyone else in the new country. Therefore, they are bullied / harassed because of it. “I hate everyone!!!! A lion’s paw rips up my throat, still I scream, I hate everyone!!!!” (Lai 209) Ha, from Inside Out and Back Again, feels she does not belong. She is so upset about this, that she is outside of her home, screaming, “I hate everyone!!!!” “Sometimes I wish I’d stayed at war rather than being here without friends” (Brice) The quote is self explanatory, really. She wishes she stayed back home in the war sometimes, because she deals with discrimination and harassment at school, and feels it would be better…

    Languages are, of course, one of the prime tools of cultural expression. So it should not surprise us to discover that the decline of indigenous cultures is also having a serious effect on the languages of the world. Indeed, an indigenous language disappears every two weeks. It is estimated that by the end of the 21st century, 5,500 of the current 6,000 languages now spoken will simply be as dead as Ancient Greek and Latin. Behind each language is a culture, the expressive richness of a living tongue and its infinite capacity to reflect a distinct mode of thought. So, when a language dies, it truly diminishes the capacity of our world to think, to know, to be and to do differently – to be truly other than the dominant culture. As John Sutherland pointed out in The Independent on Sunday:…

    I try my hardest not to be political. I’ve refused to interview several of your fellow candidates. I didn’t want to risk any personal goodwill by appearing to take sides in a contentious election. I thought: ‘Maybe the timing is not right.’ But I realize now that there is no correct time to oppose violence and prejudice. The time is always now. Because along with millions of Americans, I’ve come to realize that opposing you is no longer a political decision. It is a moral one.…
