Why Liberals don't care about consequences

Why don’t liberals seem to notice the catastrophic consequences of their policies, and why to they imagine imminent horrors where none exist? If you corner a liberal and point to a disaster that followed upon his policy, at very most he will say–with a tear in the eye and a quivering upper lip–”We did the right thing.”

It’s all about having done the right thing according to the dogma of the ersatz liberal religion. Liberalism has nothing whatsoever to do with policy and its real-world consequences. Instead of finding one’s salvation on the path of traditional religions, liberals look for salvation in a set of right opinions–on race, the environment, income distribution, gender, or whatever....


Liberals don’t see failed liberal policies as “failed,” any more than people of faith think that unanswered prayers are “failed” prayers. The difference is that people of faith abnegate themselves in prayer to a wholly-other divine person, while liberal poster-children subject the world to the narcissistic demands of their own spiritual needs.

You can’t argue with liberals. Prove to them their policy has made things worse, and they will say in effect, “Worse for whom? It sure made me feel better!” Tell them that they have foredained their own extinction because their metrosexuality doesn’t leave time for children, and they will gaze heavenward and contemplate martyrdom on behalf of the earth-goddess Gaia. There are too many people polluting the earth anyway.

And of course this secular religion isn't subject to the separate of church and state.. Liberals see the State as their Church and endow it with all of the powers of God - to heal the sick,  providing for the hungry ( loaves and fish)  and claim following them as one would follow Jesus, will result in the  salvation of your soul.

Consequences shmonsequences!

Look at this manufactured racial flap with Sterling, NOBODY (but us) is concerned that private conversations are outed becuase it serves the progressive agenda...and once that genie is out of the bottle good luck ever getting it back in...

Libiots are and always will be (as long as they live) destroyers.

When the time comes in court for the defense of my shooting sprees, I will use these exact words to the court and jury, "I did the right thing".

they are raised by their feminist mothers to believe that unicorns poop rainbows and hershey's kisses and if you just think positive green eco-thoughts the world will hold you in her arms and make everything better.

they live in a bubbled world of their own making and reject with stubbornness anything that contradicts their utopian dream as that would make them sad and their moms always told them she would make everything better for them.

While I can see that scenario for our current batch of lefty libnuts, I cannot understand how delusional men like Marx had to be to believe the crap they were spewing. surely marx must have understood the major fault in his reasoning, and if not him, how did other fellow travelers not come to grips with the fact that communism is the antithesis of human nature.

Marxism is merely the Will to dominate others with a thin veil of intellectual nonsense that rubes buy without question because it provides them with an excuse to act out their baser natures and feel greed, envy and self-pity while explaining away and pinning failures on others.  What is more basic to human nature than the will to dominate and the temptation to blame others?  Marxism is an intellectual exercise to absolve people of giving in to their baser natures. People who love freedom, accept responsibility and love to work and create are the odd ones defying  Human nature and looking to better themselves - to rise above it and to follow Christ and his teachings.  That is why there are so few of us, and America could only happen in a place where such types escaped the control of the rest of the tribe.  Well, the rest of the human tribe has now arrived and are asserting themselves in the usual way. Heinlein's "Bad Luck" is coming...
