Childishness is What Liberalism Is All About
Canada Free Press ^ | 10/31/14 | Tim Dunkin

Immaturity. Self-indulgence. Irresponsibility. These are what liberalism is all about

Anyone who regularly uses common sense knows that liberals are almost always wrong. Wrong in their opinions, wrong in their justifications, wrong in their worldview. There is not an area in our social or political discourse in which liberals don’t regularly say or do things that simply make no sense to people who expect rational behavior on the part of others. More often than not, normal people find themselves looking at liberals and wondering, “What were they thinking???”

Now, it’s alright to be wrong. Everybody gets something wrong every once in a while. I even get things wrong very occasionally. But it’s how we get them wrong that makes the difference. You can be wrong, yet be wrong in a “right” sort of way. One can be in error about something, yet still demonstrate that one is thinking seriously about a question, or has access to relevant facts and pertinent arguments. Even Einstein made a few mistakes in his thinking and his arguments. But I think we can all agree that Einstein nevertheless was on the ball with respect to his areas of specialty.

I disagree. Childishness denotes an immaturity that can not be helped. That is not a mark of liberals. A liberalism, as it is now known, is a planned deliberate choice.

Not childishness. Leftism is hatred of the Father-abstraction. It manifests itself in many ways, such as rejection of God/religion, rejection of legitimate authority, rejection of self-discipline and fiscal disciple, etc.

Liberals are not only always wrong they’re also always liars. They always try to rationalize their ridiculous ideologies through lying. They have their own set of made up “facts” about everything. Are liberals immature mentally? Yes, but at least children don’t go around making up lies about everything they believe in like liberals do.

“At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child – miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless. Liberalism is a philosphy of sniveling brats.”

— P.J. O’Rourke

I have been saying this for several years now: “Liberalism is immaturity cloaked with the pretense of moral and intellectual superiority.”

Childishness is What Liberalism Is All About

Funny this should pop up today; just yesterday I was pondering about a way to illustrate this very childishness, most clearly illustrated by the mindless phrase, "It was the right thing to do!"

When it happens in other contexts, the fallacy of the technique where asserting something is accepted as fact by the ignorant and zero information dweebs among adults seems to work.

Try that between a dad and a kid who just blew up the garage with his chemistry set...

Dad : Son, what were you thinking?
Son : at the time it seemed like the right thing to do.
Dad : Son, don't you realize how silly that sounds?

Son: Dad! I'm just a kid!

Is the picture of the he/she/it whining about the "American Dream" in spite of having a "Master of Arts Degree in Women's Studies" a man, a woman or undetermined?

What kind of a job does a "Master of Arts Degree in Women's Studies" qualify a person for?

Bueller?

Bueller!!??

One position I can think of would be something in the Human Resources Department of any company. The possibilities for "Social Engineering" on a small scale would be endless for tyrannical little creatures like the thing pictured in the article. She/he/it would have a field day establishing office behavior codes, dress codes, decorating standards, even the kinds of munchies provided in the cafeteria! ("Healthy" snacks, you know.) I say this from experience. We have one of these little dictators in our engineering firm. I loathe the wretched little witch. She reminds me of that Professor Delores Umbrage from the Harry Potter movies.
