In the whirlwind of modern-day politics, there stand two undeniable truths: those who support traditional American values and those who simply cannot seem to keep their clothes on during a political protest. Recent events in Portland offer a vivid illustration of this divide as leftists took it upon themselves to express their disdain for the country’s federal enforcement tactics through, you guessed it, yet another nude protest. Apparently, when it comes to making a political statement, the initial tactic from the left is to bare it all—literally. They rode their bikes in the buff to protest against ICE. One must wonder why, for those on the left, discussing federal tactics involves public nudity.
This leads one to ponder an astute observation: if you see a protester waving an American flag, chances are they’re conservative. The left used to celebrate the American spirit too, but now, if someone decides public nudity is a solution to their grievances, it’s almost guaranteed they’re a liberal. One has to ask, who convinced them that indecent exposure equates to effective political discourse? Is there a manual somewhere that mandates undressing to vocalize opposition to government policy? Attending a conservative protest is refreshingly different; no one drops everything (literally) to make a point.
By now, it’s clear that everything for the left somehow circles back to their obsession with sex. Whether it’s a protest against federal enforcement tactics or any other issue, the nudity speaks more about their disdain for traditional values than it does about the issue at hand. Immigration, to them, is just another facet of what they perceive to be patriarchal oppression. How does riding a bike without clothes influence public opinion on federal enforcement tactics? It doesn’t, but it’s a spectacle to say the least, hoping to gain attention instead of asked-for understanding.
This peculiar approach highlights a deeper undercurrent. The left desires to destroy our national identity, hoping to dismantle traditional American values they deem patriarchal and oppressive. In their vision, freedom equals the ability to shed societal norms—along with their clothing—for a world where anything goes. But they rest on a flawed assumption, failing to see that running around without a care or a shirt hardly advances their cause. It only adds to the mischaracterization of their opponents as being anything other than the sane voice in the room.
For conservatives, it’s not just about waving a flag; it’s about maintaining a culture that champions dignity and respect. Against this backdrop of unspoken etiquette, conservatives continue to champion policies based on logic and tradition. Rather than see patriotic expressions as oppressive, they recognize them as the backbone of a nation. In the battle of ideas, let it be about strong arguments and firm convictions, not about who can make the boldest display of misguided freedom. The right stands firm in prudence, knowing that their stance— while fully clothed and aware—reflects genuine dedication to the nation’s continued greatness.
