Modern Slavery: A Progressive’s Guide (… Guise?)
A wealthy white couple’s casual justification of paying undocumented workers $5 per hour exposes the hypocrisy within certain progressive circles. While claiming liberal values and pro-immigration stances, they openly advocate for labor exploitation, dismissing comparisons to slavery by arguing “slaves were treated much worse.” Their aggressive defense of these contradictions, combined with elitist attitudes and disdain for “common folks,” reveals how some privileged liberals have created a playbook for modern exploitation while maintaining a progressive facade. Meanwhile, families spend thousands on legal immigration, highlighting the disconnect between claimed values and actual practices.
Small Token, Small Minds, Hollow Victories
Tokens over truth: how the left obsesses over hollow victories. The left thrives on symbolic wins over substantive results—shiny but hollow baubles paraded as triumphs. From media spectacles around Trump’s court appearances to IRS audits where trivial errors become “victories,” the pattern is clear: the illusion of justice matters more than reality of fairness. Participation trophies in youth sports, meaningless degrees, protest shouting matches all reflect the same mindset—chasing appearances over achievement. Real progress demands results, accountability, and courage, not token trophies of self-righteousness.
Drain the Swamp?
For years, Donald Trump has been the target of unprecedented hostility, the likes of which no other modern leader has endured. From the moment he promised to “drain the swamp,” the establishment—and its media allies—went into overdrive, pulling every conceivable lever to discredit, derail, and ultimately destroy him. Impeached not once but twice, investigated endlessly, vilified daily, and even shot—twice—Trump has faced relentless attacks. Yet, against the storm of slander, prosecution, and public ridicule, he has emerged as a symbol of resilience. Why does Trump evoke such hatred? The answer might just explain why the left is so desperate to destroy him—and why, love him or hate him, Trump remains a force to be reckoned with.
