Guess Who Else The Government Deems “Extremists’

Remember this[1] from a few weeks ago?

(The Blaze[2]) U.S. Department of Defense education materials obtained by Judicial Watch[3], a conservative watchdog group, warn of “extremists” that will “talk of individual liberties, states’ rights, and how to make the world a better place.” Judicial Watch[4] and other conservative media outlets [5]claim the disclosure indicates the department is teaching that conservative views are “extremist” in nature.

The guide is reportedly authored by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute, a Defense Department-funded diversity training center. Further, the documents cite the left-leaning Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) when identifying “hate groups.”

It deemed the Founding Fathers themselves as extremists, and anyone who took a stance against the British during the Revolutionary War. If you support voter ID, you’re an extremist (like in Obama’s Illinois and Biden’s Delaware?). And now

People who grow their own food labeled ‘extremist’ by Dept. of Defense[6]

If the founding fathers were reincarnated today, they’d probably start another revolution, this time to break away from an American government that has become far too imperial for its own good.

And as such, they’d be labeled “extremists” by those who mean to rule us.

In fact, the nation’s founders are considered extremists by the Pentagon, according to a new “training manual” that explicitly labels the framers as such. (snip)

So, if ye love liberty and freedom more than ye love a big, powerful central government that has grown well beyond its constitutional boundaries, you’re an extremist. If ye dare to take care of yourself, to be an individual who grows his own food (weren’t there a number of farmers and plantation owners in the group of founding fathers?) ye are an enemy of the state.

While the article takes a decidedly right side point of view, the website, Natural News, isn’t exactly right leaning, and, perhaps they are reading a bit too much into the DoD training material. Yet, they have a point: if you grow your own food, you would be considered an extremist per the training material, because you don’t want Government help. Which means all those Warmists and extreme-enviros who grow their own food because of “climate change” are extremists. I don’t think they’re extremists. Wackadoodle, deluded, barking moonbats, yes. Extremist? No. My mother grows tomatoes (if you’ve never had a Jersey tomato, you don’t know what you’re missing) and sometimes other veggies. I really wouldn’t classify her as an extremist.

Really, the whole point of the training material was meant to turn the military into a far left organization which would have no problem putting down any sort of uprising against an out of control government.
