Liberalism is ALWAYS Ugly

Mark Twain wrote, “All religions issue Bibles against Satan, and say the most injurious things against him, but we never get to hear his side.” It’s seems that Mr. Twain, at least prior to penning the previous quote, never encountered a liberal.

Twain being Twain.

I remember reading that Twain had concerns for the soul of his friend George Bernard Shaw who was a full on Fabian socialist who liked the idea of exterminating people deemed useless to socialism.

[DWW1990]

Hmmm. Didn’t know that. Not surprised though. Off to church now.

You must all know half a dozen people at least who are no use in this world, who are more trouble than they are worth. Just put them there and say Sir, or Madam, now will you be kind enough to justify your existence? If you can’t justify your existence, if you’re not pulling your weight in the social boat, if you’re not producing as much as you consume or perhaps a little more, then, clearly, we cannot use the organizations of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive, because your life does not benefit us and it can’t be of very much use to yourself.

-George Bernard Shaw.

Shaw also seemed to blame the victims of communist exterminations and purges.

But the most elaborate code of this sort would still have left unspecified a hundred ways in which wreckers of Communism could have sidetracked it without ever having to face the essential questions: are you pulling your weight in the social boat? are you giving more trouble than you are worth? have you earned the privilege of living in a civilized community? That is why the Russians were forced to set up an Inquisition or Star Chamber, called at first the Cheka and now the Gay Pay Oo (Ogpu), to go into these questions and "liquidate" persons who could not answer them satisfactorily

Interesting to think that Shaw didn’t exactly contribute much (if anything) to society. Math? Nope. Science? Fegedabowdit. Social structures capable of improving life? Nah.

‘Would perhaps proven beneficial to turn that silly little man’s philosophy back on him.

[Texas Eagle]

Yeah. Interesting that Satan has no paper trail either.

No writings. No records. Goes by several names.

But damned if he didn't fool a whole host to follow him.

Read Twain’s story “The Mysterious Stranger”

More I read about Twain, the more I think this God-hating Socialist would’ve loved living in 1930’s Germany.

[Dallas59]

I never fear Satan. He’s just an Angel and not a God. I fear the people who don’t know this.

[cripplecreek]

I think that was the biggest difference between Shaw and Twain.

Twain understood that writing earned a living for him only because he was in a free society where he was free to write what he pleased and others were free to buy it or not.

Shaw was a typical useful idiot. He assumed that socialists/communists would always love and accept him while allowing him to write freely as a member of the “educated class”.
The reality is that it would find something in communist society to be critical of. This would lead to calls for him to edit the offending material which he would resist. This would lead to a government official doing the editing for him. This would continue to escalate till Shaw died in a forced labor camp surrounded by men he had spent his life declaring to belong there.

I see what you did there 😆

[Texas Eagle]

Heh, heh.

Have you ever watched the youtube video titled "Did Jesus Reveal the name of The Anti-Christ?"

You oughta check it out.

And then grab a Strong's Concordance to verify or refute.

Just for fun.
