Look, I remember when political opponents could share a handshake after a heated debate. When disagreement didn’t mean demonization. Those days are long gone. The founding fathers wouldn’t recognize what we’ve become.
Politics has gotten nasty. But it’s worse than just mean words now. Something darker has taken root. And here’s the kicker – it’s coming from the very people who claim to be saving democracy. What we’re seeing isn’t just political theater. It’s a dangerous shift in how one party views the rules of the game.
From Daily Wire:
State Rep. Justin Pearson (D-TN) claimed that his party needed to pull out all the stops and fight back against Republicans — to whom he referred alternately as “fascists” and “neo-confederates” — and argued that it wouldn’t matter in the long run what they were willing to do as long as they won…
“There is no bipartisanship anymore with a party that is intent on maintaining minority rule between tech oligarchs, White supremacists, and Christian nationalists… They want a minority-run government, and they’re willing to do this at any means necessary. We must fight back.”
Tennessee State Representative Justin Pearson recently went on MSNBC and said the quiet part out loud. In his chat with host Ali Velshi, this Democrat lawmaker declared that when fighting Republicans, “there is nothing off the table.” Let that sink in for a moment. An elected official openly saying anything goes in pursuit of political power.
When Democrats Show Their True Colors
But wait, it gets worse. Pearson didn’t stop there. He labeled Republicans as “fascists” and “neo-confederates.” He claimed there’s no working with a party that wants “minority rule.” His solution? Fight back “at any means necessary” because if we’re serious about fighting fascism, “there is nothing off the table.”
Think about what this means. Really think about it. A sitting state representative is telling us to abandon all restraints. All norms. All boundaries in political combat. This isn’t some crazy activist at a rally. This is an elected official on national television. Are you concerned yet?
By the way, this is the same guy who helped occupy the Tennessee State House. He got kicked out for it. Then got reinstated days later while calling everyone racist. Now he’s on TV calling for political war.
Mainstream Media’s Dangerous Game
What’s even worse? The MSNBC host’s response. Rather than pushing back on this insane rhetoric, Velshi jumped right in. He actually agreed with Pearson, saying “Because you will not be around to fight back if you don’t fight it now. Right!”
Is anyone else seeing this? A major news host is encouraging a politician who says “nothing is off the table” against his opponents. They’re not reporting news anymore. They’re cheerleading for extremism.
This is what passes for journalism today. No tough questions. No “wait, are you sure about that?” Just head-nodding agreement when Democrats call for taking the gloves off. The media isn’t just biased. They’re complicit.
Who Are the Real Authoritarians?
Can you believe the hypocrisy here? Pearson accuses Republicans of threatening democracy while literally advocating for throwing out all democratic norms. He claims to fight fascism while embracing the same “ends justify the means” thinking that every dictator in history used.
This is projection, plain and simple. While accusing conservatives of wanting “minority rule,” Democrats like Pearson show us who they really are. They don’t want to win debates. They don’t want to persuade voters. They want total victory. And they’ll do anything to get it.
Here’s a question for you: Who sounds more like the fascist? The party that wants to follow the Constitution? Or the party that says “nothing is off the table” to defeat their enemies? I think we all know the answer.
