Liberals believe that they were sent into the world by Gaia, a primordial earth goddess, to bring justice and equality to the oppressed. This is their religion, their faith, and their meaning of life. This from Christopher Chantrill on americanthinker.com.
The notion that their “brilliance” actually makes things worse must be racism-sexism-homophobia and white supremacy with systemic racism and institutionalized hate all rolled together.
The only thing that matters in America right now is that liberals got everything wrong. And they can’t believe it. They won’t believe it. They dare not believe it.
- When was the last time a New York Times writer said that the trouble with the labor and pro-union legislation of the 1930s is that it led directly to the overpriced manufacturing union labor of the 1970s?
In the long run, it Made Things Worse for the white working-class that, experts agree, is now “dying of despair.”
- When was the last time a New York Times writer said that the trouble with Social Security is that it has shoveled boatloads of money at okay Boomers?
It has Made Things Worse for today’s workers who are now, some experts agree, saddled with cruel taxes as far as the eye can see.
- When was the last time a New York Times writer said that the trouble with the Civil Rights Act was that it could never compensate for the fact that blacks score a whole standard deviation lower on IQ than whites?
So all the programs and quotas and diversities and inclusions and race cards of the last 50 years, experts dare not agree, have actually Made Things Worse for blacks.
And so on, and so on, and so on….
The fundamental thing to understand about today’s politics — and to keep yourself sane — is to understand that liberals cannot believe, refuse to believe… will destroy America rather than begin to consider that their brilliant ideas that were going to change the world, have not, will not, never would, never could change the world for the better. And worse, their ideas, their legislation, their political power, their cultural hegemony have Made Things Worse.
Imagine what liberals would feel if they even began to allow themselves to think about the trillions of dollars thrown down the drain, the millions of lives wrecked, the hate and the division that their policies have caused. And suppose they allowed a teensy-weensy soupçon of guilt to invade their consciousness. Not on your life.
It’s not because liberals won’t admit they were wrong. It’s not because liberals can’t bring themselves to admit they were wrong. It’s not because ‘Denial’ is merely a river in Egypt.
It is because deep down in their unconscious minds, at a visceral level, liberals keep their heads down praying the Woke rosary, venerating their progressive Idols, chanting the ancient Responses, casting out the Satans of patriarchy and white supremacy. Anything but confront the truth.
Because if liberals allowed into their conscious minds even a scintilla of doubt about the Glorious Truth of their Sacred Destiny and their True Faith in the Arc of History they would also be forced to admit that their religion, their faith, and their meaning of life is all one BIG LIE. They will then be faced with the facts that they have been misled and they have likewise been misleading others their entire lives. This, in a nutshell, is why conservatives MUST NEVER anticipate liberals to change their stripes.
