Why Are Leftists Such Pansies?
PJ Media ^ | December 6, 2016 | Andrew Klavan

Posted on 12/08/2016 6:31:56 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Many times we accuse our political opponents of crimes of which we ourselves are equally guilty. Neither the left nor the right has a monopoly on dishonesty, hypocrisy, or hyperbole. But there is at least one unpleasant trait that seems to reside almost exclusively in the hearts of leftists: a puling hysterical weakness in the face of setbacks and defeat.

I think President Barack Obama is the worst president of my lifetime: an incompetent ideologue who made the world and the country worse. The economy is not as bad as it was directly after the crash, but it is much, much worse than it would have been had it not been weighted down with Dodd-Frank regulation and the anvil of Obamacare. Racial tension is worse, the national spirit is worse, the wars in the Middle East are worse, our nation's place in the world is worse, our federal institutions are more politicized and corrupt — all because Obama simply did not know how reality worked and would not change his mind.

I knew all this was true or would be true by 2012, and when Obama was reelected over Mitt Romney, a much wiser, more adult, and steadier hand, I was dismayed. I was saddened. I was even distraught.

But I did not become a sniveling, whiny, self-obsessed pansy. I did not, that is to say, behave like leftists are behaving now....

Because they’ve never been forced to grow up and face the real world, unlike the rest of us who have graduated from the ‘school of hard knocks’.

It’s embarrassing what pussy’s they are.

yep, but they were pansies with a plan, and it worked for the most part until Obama pressed a little to hard to fast.

Have leftists been pansies for the last several decades? Good question. I have only been aware of them for the last 3 and a half or so, to which I say yes, they have been pansies during that time, but I suppose the Stalin/Mao/Pol Pot leftists were not in the pansy category. In this country, I don't know. Maybe some oldtimers can say.

It’s like that line from the movie Trainspotting where the Scots guy is talking about the English and he says everybody knows the English are wankers, but the only thing worse than bein’ a wanker is being COLONIZED by a bunch o’ bloody wankers.

Why is that person keeping a small animal on his head? Is he one of the late Jim Trafficante’s relatives?

The are pansies because they are the presumed leading edge of the globalist social engineering initiative “the new socialist man”- incapable of violent thought or deed, the “Eloi” of Welles’ “Time Machine”. Sex, drugz, rocke & roll of the soon to be forgotten hippie era were designed to create a non-combative submissive wage slave mentality, accepting of police state diktats and blind, huddling, like superstitious medieval peasant cattle. The oligarchs pine for those days and hate technology with the passion of a snake bit shaman. You thought the last decade was interesting times, you ain’t seen nothing yet...

Peak empire. No morality. All needs are met. Litigious nature of society provides remedies and police provide protection. There is no need for survival instinct; It’s been bred out of the current generation of urban dwellers.

” Gov protection from the school of hard knocks.”

Well said with so few words, I like that.

What?

Please point out these people on the Right who are dishonest, hypocritical and hyperbolic.

yeah... That's what I thought.
