Radicals Justify Their Evil by Invoking Their Presumed Moral Superiority

1st June 2012

Read it.

Such accusations, you see, are part of the belief system by which the far Left justifies its lawless radicalism: Because their enemies are all, in one way or another, guilty of political ThoughtCrimes (a category that the Left is always willing to expand and re-define as necessary), the Left need not be scrupulous as to the means by which it advances its goals.

If you buy into the premises of their argument, then the conclusion logically follows that any outcome other than the complete triumph of the Left — the extermination of all resistance — is unacceptable, and whatever foul, unjust and illegal actions are necessary to accomplish that triumph can be justified.

    I fail to understand where they get the hubris? Lefties are just about the doofy-est critters on the planet.

    Did the Weather Underground resurface while I wasn’t looking?
    Or is she perhaps speaking of the ‘lawless radicalism’ of, say, Anders Breivik?

    Speaking of ThoughtCrimes, how about the conservative assumption that all ‘leftists’ (meaning anyone who doesn’t agree 100% with the right) are ipso facto radical and/or lawless? Is that not concluding that ‘the far Left’ (there’s that capital ‘L’ again…) have committed ThoughtCrime?

    This piece is pure cant–the parts which aren’t pure drivel, that is.
