Liberalism is a cult. It is not a philosophy of government. It is the mask that madness wears in twenty-first century politics and culture. Its votaries now embrace an idea system of stupidity and error, a refuge of political identity for unfinished minds, altogether inclusive in its message and totalitarian in its instincts. Rational thinking has become offensive and intolerable in accordance with the leftist assertion that the lie is stronger than the truth. In pursuit of meaning and relevance through cultish activism, the new liberals are held captive to a hostile and controlling ideology. They hate as only the young can hate, as only as their teachers have taught them to hate, as only mobs and ignorant tribes can hate, and they cannot escape their hatred.
And what will become of the children of this hatred? Liberals are more skillful in convincing one another of their righteousness than they are the millions who are deeply aware of their sins. And their sins are multifold, the greatest of which is an ignorance of both history and human nature cultivated in the pure evil of identity politics; and those who are happiest in that ignorance are cursed with a sense of their invincibility. The free nations thought they had quelled the totalitarian urge to power in the wars of the last century, but now we hear its martial anthem once again, for the shadow of an Old-World tyranny has fallen on America from within her borders; and liberals, like children with toys of mass destruction, are playing at civil war.

Unfortunately, all of those who do learn get to do is sit around saying “I told you so...”
Unfortunately, the rest of the class will have to sit through the the re-take.
