In a predictable leftist move, “Ben & Jerry’s” ice cream is hawking a “direct action” … “against fascism” in opposition to President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20. Yeah. And yawn.
As reported by the Post Millennial on Thursday, the notoriously radical left-wing company is working to organize participation in a “People’s March” on January 18 in Washington, D.C., along with other locations across the fruited plain. The company’s latest newsletter encouraged its customers to protest and “dissent” against Trump’s soon-to-be presidency.
In the ridiculous newsletter, according to PM, the company admonished (emphasis, mine):
Power to the people! On January 18, we’re joining the People’s March in Washington, DC (and beyond!) to send an urgent message to the incoming administration: You work for the people, and we’re here to hold you accountable.
Together, we will fight for our rights and our future, and defend our freedoms against fascism. It is our right to protest and safely dissent policies and practices that do not represent our beliefs – regardless of who is in power. We are more united than we are divided. Let’s make sure they know it!
Uh-huh. Coupla points:
First, “the people” are not solely comprised of radical leftists, who are a distinct minority in the country, despite the left’s claim to the contrary.
Second, the left doesn’t even come close to holding left-wing Democrat politicians accountable. That is unless said politicians don’t support the on-demand abortion of healthy babies up until what would have been the moment of birth, oppose capital punishment for even the most heinous of murderers, support importing as many illegal aliens into the U.S. as they can get away with, and other such insanity intentionally designed to destroy America as we know it.
Third, although I’d love to believe that the entire country is more united than divided, the hateful treatment of Trump and his followers throughout the presidential election campaign was disgusting — including referring to the soon-to-be president as Hitler, a fascist, a white supremacist, and worse, ad nauseam.
So, please — back off the bong, dudes, and get a grip on what the majority of people in America really stand for.
