The left of today are the founders of a new religion called selectivity. Every aspect of the left's current extreme ideology involves being selective. Selective outrage, selective morality, selective media reporting, selective justice and selective "facts," all have become the "go to" weapons of the radical left. All of the above are becoming vital characteristics one must exemplify if one is going to become a practicing member of this new leftist religious cult.
Every member of this leftist religious sect must take a solemn vow to always be selective when it comes to reporting on any kind of news, evidence or facts. All must be willing to advance the left's radical agenda through any means necessary. Each member must learn to subscribe to double standards. Many of these cult members must learn to feign selective outrage on cue and even manufacture a crisis when necessary to aide their cause. The members must choose to exist within a life of illusion/delusion where perception and confirmation bias trump facts and evidence, and reality itself.

There is virtually never an honest effort to even discuss the underlying causation for what they seek to attack.
For further development, War On An American Future.
To find a recognizable analogy, think about the methodology of the concert hall magician. The Left since the Jacobins in France has always relied on illusions.

Don’t know about you guys but that fits right in with my plans. ‘Democrat! Make your selection, semi or full auto.’
Liberals’ “situational ethics” have got us into a lot of trouble up to this point.
How bout some good old ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ for a change
