Good post.

When I was a leftist antinuclear freak in the mid 70's I remember the Baader-Meinhof being portrayed as a heroic organization of concerned peoples fighting for justice for the average man.

I am embarrassed about the way I used to see the world then, but proud to have the courage to admit that I was wrong now.

The left is dying off globally because it is dysfunctional. Sadly it (the left) is going to be replaced as the driving force of tyrannical potential by the islamists. The left in the western world never had the ability to keep the average person stupid enough to accept their ideology, what remains of them must ally with Islam.

The drivers of the left are clever and devious, as are those driving islamist fascism. Unfortunately for them both they lead an army of retards and people who lack the intellectual capacity to see that they are following a philosophy that is death centered. Lemmings do not an army make.
