There are many ways to diagnose the current destructiveness of conservatives – the lies, the vindictiveness, the resentment, the grievances.
But blaming others for something, anything that is wrong in their lives is probably a central reason for all this anger.
Conservatives believe that there are a host of thieves and evil people who have victimized them and destroyed their chance for a good life.
Biden stole the election.
The Unions, Affirmative Action, immigrants, and government regulations stole their jobs.
Immigrants are getting undeserved free healthcare and retirement income leaving less for them.
Government destroyed society when they stopped school prayer and allowed babies to be killed in the womb
The Christian Nation (that never existed) was taken from them by liberals.
Government regulators have already or want to steal their guns.
These are just a few of their many grievances.
But Arnold Schwarzenegger shows in this brilliant video what happens when the blame-game goes nuclear – when civilization disintegrates into warring tribes (as is happening in the US) and into warring nations (as it did in WW II). In addition, he shows how people who choose to hate and scapegoat minorities often destroy themselves instead.
I urge you to try to get any conservative that you know to watch this video.
Conservatives might listen because Arnold is a talented celebrity who is often considered part of the “Hollywood Right.” He may be considered “one of them.”
The video might get them to reconsider living a life of resentment and “going down the path of hate.” It seeks to get them to change course and assume responsibility for their lives by choosing to improve their skills to gain personal strength instead.
Arnold’s sincere efforts in this 12 minute video may reach conservatives when many other efforts have failed. We can only hope.
Here is what I consider to be a truly inspirited YouTube video:
