Obligatory, 8.16.18, What makes a liberal tick?


It may be futile to mention, but what is it that makes them liberals tick?  Liberals say
they want equality, don't they?  But how do you achieve that?  Equality comes at some
price, but what is that price, and are you willing to pay for it?

You will have to have quotas for everything.  So many of this and so many of that.  Thus,
quotas will have to exist, to some degree, and will be independent of merit.  That is to say, if there aren't enough of this, and too many of that kind are around, then that kind
cannot be included.  That's because there's not enough of "this" kind that would
make things equal, and "fair".  So, somebody is going to be excluded, and it might well
be somebody better qualified.  By the same token, somebody who is unqualified gets
to be included.  The price you pay, therefore, is merit.  Merit is going to have
to sacrificed on the altar of equality.

Liberals don't like white folks, either.  Remember that Michael Moore said that when white people are no longer a majority in this country, the country will be better.  Maybe,
maybe not.  For Moore, it is the white folks who make things not as good as they
should be.  What if that is wrong?  But then again, it may depend on what you want.  Maybe Moore wants the colored people to rule.  How's that working in South Africa?  How's that working in Haiti?

If you think that industry is harming the planet, and the white folks are responsible
for that, then once the white folks are in the minority, industry goes away.  Perhaps
that is what the liberals think.  White folks are ultimately responsible for the
believed lack of environmental quality.  That is but one thing that white folks are said
to be to blame for, but there are many others in the liberal catechism.

But what if that is wrong too?  What if the colored folks create a world that is
less environmentally friendly than when the white folks ran things?

In the end, liberals aren't necessarily concerned about what is right.  It may
not matter to them that their policy prescriptions lead to bad outcomes.  What
may matter more to them is their feelings about themselves.  As long as a thing
makes them feel good about themselves, then it is okay.  Never mind where that
actually leads.

Racism and all the "isms" that they love to accuse "whitey" of, is but one facet of the
equality theme.  Everybody must be equal, and if you object for any reason, then
you must be guilty of an "ism" of some kind.

So what makes a liberal tick?  They love their "isms".  But they don't love what
is right.  They believe that they are better than the rednecks.  But the wrong may not
be so bad to them, as long as they feel good about themselves.  That's what matters
the most.  It would be better to Moore if the country dies than to have to feel
bad about himself if he had to admit that he was wrong about what he believes.

How can Moore be right about socialism and race?  The record does not show that he
is.  Socialism is a failure in all colors.
