...Look at how opposite some of their constituencies are...
I've recognized this apparent inconsistency almost from the time I became politically aware. I used to expect an implosion of liberal ideology because of it. But the dynamic keeps going and going. The inconsistencies of opposing constituencies doesn't harm liberalism because liberalism does not require logic and has no shame. Then I finally realized that it wasn't liberalism that would implode, but the entirety of Western culture.
Expecting liberalism to kill itself off by the revelation of its inconsistencies is like expecting cancer to kill itself off by the revelation of its chaotic nature. Cancer doesn't kill itself, it kills the host body - unless it is cut out and irradiated.
Exactly!
There is no happy ending to be had here, the "my-way-no-matter-what-hell-may-come" progs are not going to suddenly wake up and say "Gosh, we had it all wrong, we need to learn to live with our more conservative countrymen.", it just is not a reasonable or intelligent expectation to have about these people. They all sold 100% of their soul to their agenda and for what they think it can give them - an excuse to behave they way they want to, the sanction to behave they way they want to, the ability to have their selfish needs met courtesy of their enlightened masters...all without any judgement or criticism. And no, the progs do not care about the insanity of any of their positions, certainly not their bend-over-backwards tolerance of muzzies...like all fools they think cutting a deal with the crocodile means being eaten last is a swell deal as long as the deal holds.
The only person harder to deal with than a prog is a muzzie...
To think you will ever be able to live with either...to me, is irrational. They hate our very existence...we are a reminder to them of what they are not...and I for one think we should match their offer, it is after all the fair thing to do.
