"...if society imposes it’s repressive “normality” on us, then “madness” would represent a rebellion against this crushing imposition... While socialism may have failed in the real world, it lives on in fantasy. It appeals to the longing to transcend and escape from human nature. There will always exist the yearning to return to an imagined perfection of early childhood, and this is why the infantilism of the left is not refutable by logic. All it takes is a Cindy Sheehan, a woman in the grip of paranoia, grievance and victimhood. For the children of the Sixties, the Maureen Dowds and our wordsmiths of the media and universities, Sheehan's bizarreness certifies her as a truth teller."

Very interesting. I liked this a lot and it actually makes a heck of a lot more sense than the left could ever make. What the loony liberal left sees as "repressive normality" imposed on these poor victims of society, we conservatives tend to see (and accept) as "responsibility". Like I posted on another thread, liberals are no more than emotionally retarded, mental midgets.

Good post.

When I was a leftist antinuclear freak in the mid 70's I remember the Baader-Meinhof being portrayed as a heroic organization of concerned peoples fighting for justice for the average man.

I am embarrassed about the way I used to see the world then, but proud to have the courage to admit that I was wrong now.

The left is dying off globally because it is dysfunctional. Sadly it (the left) is going to be replaced as the driving force of tyrannical potential by the islamists. The left in the western world never had the ability to keep the average person stupid enough to accept their ideology, what remains of them must ally with Islam.

The drivers of the left are clever and devious, as are those driving islamist fascism. Unfortunately for them both they lead an army of retards and people who lack the intellectual capacity to see that they are following a philosophy that is death centered. Lemmings do not an army make.
