Thank you for posting that Rurudyne! It has proven to be a provocative glimpse into the thought processes of the leftist mind. I’ve bookmarked that page and will be studying it for a while.

I know that I mock leftists by claiming that they do not think - they emote (largely if not literally true). I recall when the left seized upon the poorly phrased statement from Kellyanne Conway about “alternate facts”. They felt that they had caught her in a linguistic logic trap (”There can only be one set of facts!”). What they were glossing over is the tendency of the left to omit or summarily dismiss factors that, although dismissed or omitted, remain facts.

The author talks about right vs. left attitudes relative to the passing of Osama Bin Laden and Margaret Thatcher. The right generally cheered Bin Laden’s death and mourned Thatcher’s passing. For the left it was exactly the opposite.

My favorite part (so far) is a look at attitudes (again left vs. right) towards America. Leftists cannot find enough things to be critical or condemnatory about their mother country whereas all the iconography emblematic of America (Baseball, apple pie, pickup trucks, etc) are distinctively right-wing.
