“What is truth, if we no longer live in an age of reason? A discomfort exists amongst all. What is true has been abandoned, for what advances the interest of my tribe, or the will of my masters? It is seemingly no longer possible to reason a way forward, but to exert a force of will, to advance one’s particular worldview. In this, we Conservatives are at a disadvantage, and in my opinion, will represent our eventual demise.”
Delusions will win some battles here and there, but in the end reality will get its revenge.
The unfortunate thing is that new delusionals are constantly being born, ready to sell their delusions to the easily deluded, so the battle between reality and delusions is eternal.
Reality dispatched the Lenins, the Stalins, the Hitlers, but later we got Obama, Merkel, Soros, Bergoglio (the Marxist Pope}. Reality will dispatch them too, but not before they have caused untold misery.
Kipling described the revenge of reality very well in his “The Gods of the copybook headings”...
“And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return! “
