Yes, you. You know who you are.
You’re liberal; an academic, perhaps, or a writer/journalist/opinion-shaper of some sort. You spout the liberal line (I’m not really sure whether you really believe it, or just realize that it’s a good gig that pays well) to your adoring audience, who gobble it up and regurgitate it to others ad nauseum.
This I can deal with.
What I cannot deal with, what I cannot comprehend, is the dangerous mentality that sometimes accompanies basic liberal elite thinking. The mentality that actively wishes harm on our country and its citizens–all in the name of progress, of course.
First and foremost among those execrable examples of human waste is the extremely unamiable James Wolcott, who not only roots for hurricanes to strike, but also bemoaned the fact specifically that Hurricane Katrina didn’t actually kill enough people:
“Casualty figures are often high-ranged at the outset, dropping as the smoke and water clears. But any number substantially higher than 3,000 dead presents a political and symbolic dilemma for the most avid advocates of the War on Terror…”

It is called evil.
It takes over and controls the minds and the lives of any who do not constantly seek and embrace the Truth.
If harming the country or a good crisis occurs and they can be used to achieve their ultimate goals of statism and socialism, then libtards are for it.
In other words, never let a good crisis go to waste, right?
A lot of liberalism is self delusion justified by being “smarter” than everyone else.
Consider, if you will, what can be described as A Compulsion For Uniformity. Or consider Compassion Or Compulsion.

HA~! you are not... you spelled every single word right, even the big ones.
They base all their political/social beliefs on pure emotion without any logic
Yet if you every really talked to and get to know a Liberal you will quickly realize they are the most emotionless/soulless people you will ever meet.
Eye give the credit to spill checkered...
ABSOLUTELY INDEED.
And more mystifying is when some conservative Christian groups cling with a death grip to
the MSM’s construction on reality and threaten other Christian conservatives for not swallowing the MSM swill.
Mystifying.
Just felt it deserved a bit of Quixication.

This dangerous mentality goes far beyond being a mental disorder, or evil,or operating on pure emotion without logic, although all three of these items apply. According to James Burnham, liberalism is the ideology of the retreat or suicide of the entire Western Civilization. Read more:
The book came out in 1985. It was written by James Burnham, a founding editor of National Review. Titled “Suicide of the West”, it is the most profound in-depth analysis of Liberalism I have ever come across. Published by Regnery Gateway, Inc. ISBN 0-89526-599-0.
A very enjoyable read.
