Rage as a way of life
By Henry F. Smith, Jr.
Disappointment is part of life. How we handle disappointment can be a window into someone’s strength of character. It is a test that, in 2025, many on the Left are failing catastrophically.
I was certainly disappointed in January of 2020, when Joe Biden was sworn in as president. I was disappointed by the opening of the southern border, the idiotic spending, the resultant inflation, the COVID lockdowns, and the disastrous pullout from Afghanistan. Although many of us felt that the election was stolen and that Biden was clearly incompetent, most of us shrugged our shoulders and went back to work. We didn’t act out rage against liberal Biden supporters. We didn’t go around keying old Subaru Outbacks with Biden/Harris bumper stickers. We didn’t physically assault “pro-choice” demonstrators. I didn’t call anybody Hitler, nor constantly post anti-Biden memes. Neither did the vast majority of my conservative acquaintances.
Some on the Left may point out the events on January 6. The more we learn about this, however, the more it seems likely that the capital intrusion was orchestrated in part by the Democrats in Congress and their allies in the FBI. After all, the Left is much better at this sort of thing than we are.
