The great US columnist Charles Krauthammer once noted this truth about contemporary political life in America: ‘To understand the workings of American politics you have to understand this fundamental law: Conservatives think liberals are stupid. Liberals think conservatives are evil.’

You proved Krauthammer was wrong. You who consider yourself "conservative" seem to think liberals belong to the evil-one himself. As you stated:

"The Devil's Blue Army -- Hopes to advance His many causes of atheism, abortion murders, suppression of free speech, totalitarian socialism, identity politics, anarchist protests, politically correct speech, activist judges, gay and transgender education for public schools, suppression of conservative ideals, condemnation of Republican elected officials, smear campaign against Trump, Mueller's attempts to frame the Presidemt, Pelosi's impeachment campaign, etc."

Krauthammer said conservatives thought liberals were merely stupid. You imply liberals are not only stupid, but so evil that they are "the devil's---"the Devil's Blue Army". In your viewpoint I think I see echoes of Witness Lee who declared that Judaism was Satanic.

As we have pointed out, the third line of the enemy is the degradation of the churches. The churches themselves are not the enemies, but the degradation, the degraded situation, the degraded condition, of the churches has become a real enemy to us. In overcoming the degradation of the churches, we need to overcome three “isms”—satanic Judaism (2:9-10), demonic Catholicism (vv. 24-28), and dead and Christless Protestantism (3:1-5, 20-21). The God-men, a book composed of messages given by Witness Lee in Anaheim, California, on May 26 through 29, 1995.

This kind of devil talk is troubling. Isn't this the kind of hate speech used to justify violence against people considered Satanic?
