Hate Conservatives
Either way, whether the wicker man or the witch, the effigy goes
up in flames and the community is purgedfor the momentof
its evil. Moral annulment now achieved, the villagers walk away
feeling good about themselves. Feeling superior.
Facts are also unimportant in this perverse passion play. Like the
slavering, semi-psychotic Facebook rant above, most such
assaults arent a series of accusations backed up by facts, they
are a series of character assassinations, most of which
are contradicted by the facts.
The most salient example today is the charge that people of the
right (conservatives, Republicans, libertarians, tea partiers)
oppose Obama out of pure racismsimply because he is black.
Though this charge is easily refutedby common sense,
widespread evidence, and actual studiesit is repeated
incessantly by the media, the lefts foot-soldiers . . . even the
president himself.
When actual studies are done (as opposed to just restating what
the leftist imagines to be so as if it were actual fact), we learn that
real racism is distributed fairly evenly among the population
without regard to political affiliation. In 2008, a survey was done
that showed similar numbers of Republicans (5.7) and Democrats
(6.8) would not vote for a black presidential candidate. Such a
question gives us one of the clearest possible tests of raw racism.
A loaded question like, Do you feel blacks receive too much
welfare? might confuse attitudes about race with attitudes about
government welfare programs. But this gives us apples to
apples: All things being equal, would you refuse to vote for
someone solely because of race?
Thats why you see so much more toleration by the lefts rank and
file of corruption and bad behavior by their leaders. Whats a little
lying here, a little corruption there? They are building paradise.
Whats a little cheating in the face of all they intend to
accomplish?
So is it true?
The leftist looks at herself in the mirror and sees that she is one of
those right people, because that is how she wants to see
herself.
And if she is so beautiful and noble and fair . . . then how ugly you
must be for standing in her way.
The leftistthe utopian, the statistsees himself as on noble
quest. He is the embodiment of everything good, simply because
that is how he sees himself. How he wants to see himself. In order
to maintain this self-image, he must make you the embodiment of
everything horrible. He must make you ugly.
