The mainstream right is just as committed to the destruction of our civilisation as is the Left. The only difference is that the mainstream right is more dishonest and more cynical. Political parties of the mainstream right are more dangerous enemies to our civilisation than parties of the Left because they give people the false impression that they represent an alternative.<br /><br />"Democracy" as it currently exists is a sham. It's all smoke and mirrors. In reality the entire political class shares the same agenda.dfordoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306293859869179118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-33924862958849784102015-10-23T13:37:36.611+11:002015-10-23T13:37:36.611+11:00In other words, they are not starting with reality...<em>In other words, they are not starting with reality, they are starting with ideological commitments,</em><br /><br />It's the classic leftist method. You find a theory that you like. If the facts contradict the theory you ignore the facts. The theory must be right so the facts must be wrong. The problem is easily solved - you just make up some facts to support your theory. dfordoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306293859869179118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-7840782350458868342015-10-20T06:23:01.101+11:002015-10-20T06:23:01.101+11:00Mr. Richardson...
At some point Liberalism as sel...Mr. Richardson...<br /><br />At some point Liberalism as self-creation became Liberalism as self-annihilation. Autonomy theory went radical. Think of a clump of clay created into a cup and then destroyed, recreated into a bowl and then destroyed, recreated into a tile and then destroyed, recreated into a brick and then destroyed... Over time, this entropic cycle leaves one FINALLY with nothing to which to recreate. Self-annihilation is Final Liberation. This desire for radical autonomy is desire for self-annihilation. There are the true believers and then there are the "preachers" offing the true believers with their "sermons."Thordaddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887901925655428541noreply@blogger.com
