The Congenitally Stupid
The congenitally stupid segment of society are naturally drawn to liberalism. Liberalism is a philosophy that does not require, and in fact discourages, reasoned thought. Those who are incapable of reaching logical conclusions, or who find the simple relationship between cause and effect beyond their grasp, are natural followers of liberalism. Successful recruiting of the congenitally stupid by the liberals is often accomplished by uttering nothing more than a couple of inane platitudes.
The Uninformed
The uninformed are for the most part the mentally lazy and the unconcerned. These are also natural recruits to liberalism as they can be so easily led. They are the perfect sheep who the liberals only need to appeal to on an emotional level. The uninformed can easily be drawn to a philosophy that discourages the effort of logical thought.
The Misinformed
The largest group of liberals is the misinformed. They are for the most part motivated and intelligent enough to be aware of their surroundings and to have a rudimentary grasp of the some of the issues confronting society. Unfortunately they completely lack the intellectual integrity to logically investigate their own belief system. They are the preferred ovine breed of leaders like Hitler and Stalin.
The Truly Evil
The truly evil segment of liberals are those who completely understand the destructiveness of liberalism but continue to further its agenda. There is no fate too vile for this segment of society. Spending the rest of their lives in one of their philosophy’s most ringing successes, N. Korea for example, would be just a reward for those liberals who truly know what they do.
