Try as I might, I occasionally get sucked into the online doom-scroll and recently, I&#8217;ve been genuinely rattled by the pure hatred people carry for me on the internet. 
 
Not me as an individual, but my entire perceived identity. I am Republican, therefore I am an evil, worthless, unlovable person.
Obviously.
This is evident in the way we are discussed online. 
Take applesauce.eater37. He posted a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reels/DWkMusZEi9W/">video</a> of him and his friend with the caption, &#8220;When me and my Republican bro both interested in the Latina so I ask him who he voted for again.&#8221; 
 
In slow motion, with the song “Hemorrhage” playing in the background, the liberal (less attractive) male gets the girl and walks away with the Latina looking back in disgust at the morally depraved Republican. 689,000 likes. Ten million views. A comment section turned Republican roast sesh.
“Why you have a republican friend in the first place?”
“No one smart is attracted to republicans”
“Let’s normalize this because I don’t want to date a guy who doesn’t care about women or anyone other than themselves.” 

“Who has a republican bro anymore? No more tolerance”
“republican friend? in the MAGA era of politics? hell naw. i don’t even have republican family today”
They deride Republicans as inhuman. Unworthy of friendship, beyond saving, deplorable.
In another <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reels/DU4heY6gCUU/">video</a>, a man (with painted nails) explains that he left the conservative party, and you should too.
The comments that followed?
“Men learning empathy is so funny.”
“Oh so you learned to critically think”
Apparently, Republicans lack empathy and the ability to think critically. 
This is coming from the same crowd that laughs when conservatives are shot, mourns when the bullet misses, and openly wishes for the next one to land. If we think critically about the irony there, we see that the party of supposed &#8220;empathy&#8221; and &#8220;tolerance&#8221; is often the most apathetic and intolerant crowd in the room.
I believe in this case, culture is downstream from politics, and our politicians have been stripping Republicans of their humanity for years, all so they never have to engage with our arguments, our policies, or us in general.
When Hillary Clinton calls us &#8220;deplorables,” when Hakeem Jeffries says our policies are &#8220;violent,” when Joe Biden calls MAGA Republicans &#8220;semi-fascists,” when too many in the mainstream left repeatedly call Trump supporters &#8220;Nazis&#8221; … they are delegitimizing us. Stripping us of human virtue. Belittling us, so that when we are harmed, it registers as a net positive.
Nazis taken out! Good! 
If our leaders are telling voters and constituents that the most powerful man in the world is a pedophile, a rapist, and a traitor, and his followers are child-harming, women-hating, country-loathing sympathizers — well, the culture will quickly turn against Republicans, who make up half the country.
Where that stream turns into a waterfall is online.
Hateful, polarizing, emotionally charged rhetoric is promoted and pushed algorithmically much farther than neutral language on social media, and who consumes most of that content? Young people.
They are first taught that it is necessary to hurt or kill those who are preventing social change — in fact, it is morally obligatory — and then they are taught that Republicans are evil. So take out the evil, and you are good.
This is reflected in the data. Politicians, pop culture, and online creators have spent years insisting corporations are evil, capitalism is to blame for everything, conservatives are morally bankrupt, and Christianity is useless. The old moral code — the Ten Commandments we inherited from Judaism and Christianity — disappears. Suddenly, capitalists deserve to die.
Forty percent of Americans with graduate or professional degrees now say “violence is often necessary to create social change.” Forty percent of Gen Z said the murder of the UnitedHealthcare CEO was acceptable. And 22% of liberals under 44 say it’s okay to feel happy when a political opponent dies.
When you strip certain people of their morality, throw the entire moral compass out the window, and then argue that in your shiny new worldview violence is good if it&#8217;s aimed at the bad — then it is okay to kill Republicans. In fact, it&#8217;s encouraged.
We saw this in the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/manifesto-shows-shooter-was-willing-to-kill-everyone-at-correspondents-dinner">manifesto</a> of Trump&#8217;s most recent alleged assassin, Cole Allen. A normal, nerdy Democrat, radicalized by MSNOW, CNN, and Bluesky, who decided it was his moral duty to kill the president. He was doing us all a favor.
The other problem is that many on the Left have no higher power reeling them in, hitting the pause button, or telling them “No.” They answer to no one but themselves. And they&#8217;ve decided we are beneath contempt, so it’s best to block, banish, and spray us with bullets.
Politics used to be about ironing out our differences. Now it&#8217;s about throwing away anything that doesn&#8217;t fit their ideal mold.
The only way for them to see us as human again or even worthy of life is a return to faith and a shared moral code: thou shalt not murder, steal, bear false witness, covet, or dishonor your parents. You know, the Ten Commandments. Pretty solid rule of thumb.
Will the Left accept it? Will they see us as created in the image of God, just like they are? Or are we too egregious beyond reckoning?
The party that values the unborn, the living, and the dead. The party that rescued more than 62,000 unaccompanied migrant children from sex trafficking and forced labor in the last year alone. The party that launched Trump Accounts and expanded the Child Tax Credit to build generational wealth for low-income families. The party that expanded school choice and educational freedom. The party that puts violent criminals behind bars to protect its citizens. Could the Left ever extend such a party even one iota of respect?
Well, Leftist judges are now blocking the Commandments from classrooms. They&#8217;re publicly lamenting that the shooter missed. Heck, I&#8217;ve already been labeled a racist and a bigot by people who&#8217;ve never met me.
So no, I don’t think they’re coming around anytime soon. I suspect they would celebrate my death on Instagram — and the comment section would cheer.
