What’s so comical that it is tragic is that the left is more or less utterly blind to their cultural Marxist underpinnings. They do not realize that their function is only to cause the end of the civilization, not to inhabit the revolutionary world so many dream of (where their excess of madness wouldn’t be tolerated).
No where is this truth about them clearer than when we consider how easily that the Islamist have got them to dance for them, how eagerly the left works on behalf of people who will eventually either lop off their heads, stone them, or throw them off of roofs.
Are you sure they’re blind to it. Read Dostoyevsky. Read Eric Hoffer. I don’t think they are blind to it. They hate civilization and they hate themselves. They want to dissolve into — and dissolve everything into — utter and complete nihilism.
