Are you kidding?

Big government can thrive on stupidity, mendacity and foolishness. It needs the people divided along useful to it lines. Frankly, there are none as useful to big government as useful idiots.

The Left is fueled by hate.

Jean Paul Sartre said: "If the Jew did not exist, the anti-Semite would invent him."

The Left today requires the Republicans as an enemy and object of Hate.

Identity politics and big government don’t mix. The unstable compound only holds together as long as there is a common enemy who can serve as a threat to the greed that unites its corrupt factions. When that enemy, Republicans, the primordial white male, ceases to be a factor, then it all falls apart.

This author is naive. The Nazi party was all about big government and identity politics.

Some sort of genocide is being cooked up by evil leftists.

Stalin and Lenin recognized the trouble brought by the revolutionary rabble. So after the revolution, they had them shot.

What good are the identity group zombies, but to make trouble? They have no other working skills and no thinking skills.

Greenfield is brilliant, and he is right. The plan of the collectivists here has been to keep control of their pet tribalists. Think of it: The NAACP was founded in 1910 or so by white Progressives. I think their hope today is that, like the Nazis, they can exterminate the tribes they have armed and unleashed when they become troublesome.

Considering the birth-rate among collectivists, which I think is in the negative numbers, that idea is laughable.

I have a small, but significant quibble: They just call their science, magic, and their magicians, scientists and experts, but their science is not based on reason, but on will

Science based on reason is better than emotional, tribal, ganja-brain nonsense. But reason is just a tool. Collectivism is based on reason, too. Its premise--that human nature can be changed--is false. To be helpful, reason must be working from a premise that is true.

What's true is 1) man has a specific, describable nature; and 2) man's nature is flawed by Original Sin.

That's why only Constitutionalism, which acknowledges a) human nature, b) the Common Law based on it, and c) the God Who created it, will work--but only, as Franklin warned us, "if you can keep it."
