As everyone except liberals knows, liberals are just awful. But what many people may not know is that their brainless do-gooding is quite literally destroying our civilization. Here is our list of the top ten leftist delusions that make us cringe our faces off.

Hayek’s “Road to Serfdom” documents Britain’s flirtations with socialism going back to the ‘20’s IIRC.
Top 10 Liberal Beliefs that are Destroying the Western World
10. Diversity is our strength
Although diversity can mean having lots of different skills, these skills can only usually be employed successfully if the people who use them are homogeneous. Diversity is divisive; the more differences there are, the higher the chance of arguments and conflict. We may not like to admit it, but every person on this earth has a cultural preference, racial self-interest, and genetic traits. The more fault lines that are present, the more likely problems are to occur.
9. Homosexuality is equal to heterosexuality
Heterosexuality is the only sexuality where people can reproduce. It also allows children to have the experience of being raised by both the man and the woman who biologically created them. Homosexuality offers none of this, and so, therefore, it is not as important as heterosexuality, nor should it be feted as desirable or promoted to children. The continuation of the species and the means to do it must always be given priority.
8. Pacifism is moral
Not fighting back when your people -or those in dire need- are being invaded and killed is not moral; it is cowardly and quite frankly suicidal. Would you really not fight back if somebody was hurting your child or breaking into your home? Such thinking is nonsense, and will eventually lead to the end of your civilization. Any pacifist society that does emerge will quickly be conquered by those who are willing to fight.
7. All cultures are equal
The culture which built Cathedrals and sailing ships is far superior to the culture which only produced mud huts and spears. There is nothing wrong with admitting this statement of obvious fact. If you believe that all cultures are equal, then you are saying that stoning a woman for being raped (as they do in Pakistan) is equal to the English common law system, under which imprisonment is handed down to the rapist.
6. Real communism has never been tried
Communism has been tried in a number of countries, including the Soviet Union, Vietnam, Cuba, and China. Every single one of these countries either collapsed or had to introduce huge free market reforms in order to stave off a collapse. Central planning of an economy does not usually allow production to react quickly enough to different factors, and the absence of profit and private property means that people have nothing to gain from working hard, so the rates of innovation collapse. If you want to know what far left economics results in then look at Venezuela, where inflation is currently hovering around the 1,000,000% mark. Let us not forget the thought-policing and subjugation inherent in this so-called system of equality.
5. Ethnic minorities in the West are victims of white supremacy
Ethnic minorities in the west have an incredible opportunity to succeed. They are able to claim benefits, have an education, get a job and have a family. Nowhere else in the world are minorities offered such privileges. You remember Barack Obama, the mixed-race guy who was voted by the majority of White Americans to become President of the United States? Or Sadiq Khan, the ethnic Pakistani man who became the Mayor of London? Yeah, terrible white supremacy, right there
4. You can’t be racist to white people
Racism is prejudice based on the factor of race. Just because a white man is wealthy, that doesn’t mean a black person cannot be racist towards him. If you don’t believe me, just look at the institutional racism taking place in South Africa directed against whites. Despite what modern liberal history books teach, white people have been the victims of countless racist
3. I can be anything I want to be
Your entire biology is determined by the genes passed down to you by your parents. We are all biological beings, and are gender, race, ethnicity and IQ variation are all determined before we are even born. You cannot escape these factors, so please do not delude yourself into trying to change them. Accept the person that you are, and make the best of the existence that you have. One of the greatest strengths of past societies was the acknowledgment of boundaries and limitations.attacks throughout history, ranging from the Berber slave trade of North Africa to the Haitian revolution in 1804.
2. Putting off having children until later life is perfectly fine
Studies show that the best time to have children, in terms of fertility, the ability to give birth, and the likelihood of avoiding defects, is between the ages of 20 and 35. A woman’s fertility starts to decline after the age of 35, and a woman of this age only has a 15% chance per ovulation cycle of conceiving. By age the age of 45, a woman only has a 3% chance per ovulation cycle of conceiving. If you want to have more than one child, then obviously starting earlier is even more important.
1. You can’t be proud of your ancestors’ achievements. That’s racist!
This belief is the one that turns a strong, grounded community into a rootless and weak one. Your ancestors fought for thousands of years so that their land and genetics would carry on to you. The only reason you exist is thanks to their efforts, so the least you can do is be thankful for them. Why anybody would be offended by somebody having pride in his or her ancestors for fighting a battle or discovering a new form of medicine or literally just being part of his or her history is quite beyond me.
Liberalism and progressivism = utter cancer, and this cancer will kill you.
God can make me a basketball star? Better looking? A Nobel prize winning physicist? I believe God sends to me the Holy Spirit to empower me to be the best that I can be, but much of whatever I could ever accomplish was determined by whatever combo of chromosomes and genes he decided to express at my conception. Do you disagree?
The peace sign is the so-called "dove's foot," found on the tie-died t-shirts of aging hippies everywhere. That was indeed derived from the semaphore signs for "ND" -- "Nuclear disarmament."
I believe that each and every human being who has ever lived has been the descendant of two people--Adam and Eve. My ancestors were human. Sorry about yours.
I believe that loyalty to the One True G-d trumps and overrules every other single loyalty in existence. The "planet of peoples" the "palaeos" yearn for would also be a planet of false "gxds"--one for each ethnic group.
Since I believe that religious identity is the supreme identity, dwarfing all others, I regard only interreligious marriages as "mixed." A Baptist Icelander and a Baptist pygmy would not be a mixed marriage. A Baptist and b*ddhist Icelander or Pygmy would be.
I sincerely suspect that "palaeos" don't really believe in G-d at all. For them G-d is a mere civilizational totem. This is idolatry, plain and simple.
I reiterate that the author of the article writes as though he were an atheist evolutionist who holds that human beings are mere animals, subject only to the "laws of nature."
It's why I'm still procrastinating about cleaning the basement today :)
I like to remind people that there was a reason for ROME to keep Legions on the Rhine River. When the Legions disappeared, ROME was overwhelmed and destroyed.

Bookmark, great post. Number 7 resonates with me following conversations this week about culture.
Yes, 5 of these 10 liberal myths deal with multi-culturalism. Rush was saying last week that multi-culturalism is the root of today’s identity politics. I have seen the assignments that college students are getting, that are filled with “white privilege” and other racially divisive propaganda. It is truly racist and hateful.
Ditto.
Rarely has so much ignorant Bullshit been printed side by side.
I agree. These are all leftist myths meant to keep white people from fighting back while leftists consolidate their power.

Thank you for the link. I will print out the Top #10. Just a bit earlier today I had call for having it, in the future I will be better prepared.
Consider the following quotes from "The Russian Revolution" by Alan Moorehead 1958, and see if they remind you of any group in the U.S.
"… this was a predatory state which the Czar and a small group of noblemen and bureaucrats ruled for their own exclusive benefit...The ruling group owned all the wealth, enjoyed all the privileges and monopolized all the political power, and it did not intend to give up any of its prerogatives. It considered the peasants to be little better than animals..."
"Footprint of the American Chicken" is the appropriate term.
