In 2011 I published a commentary by James Dilingpole entitled, The science is settled: US liberals really are the dumbest creatures on the planet. It's still is as meaningful now as it was then. But it's bigger than just a lack of intelligence. The problem is deeper and far more disturbing than mere stupidity. Here are some thoughts based on that article.
Like Dilingpole, I often wonder why lefties, liberals, progressives, Democrats, RINO's and the media(oops, I'm repeating myself) are so often so utterly wrong on so many issues. Then he explains it: It's because their stupid!
Not misguided - stupid! And the reason they're stupid is because they care little for facts, consistency of thought and whether or not what they believe and promote has any relationship with what is going on in reality. As a result they dump on society.
While promising utopia, claiming everything should be free and the rich should pay more taxes, they invariable deliver dystopia: misery, suffering, disease, squalor and early death. They've destroyed economies, wrecked havoc in nations all over the world and ruined hundreds of millions of lives in the 20th century, and are continuing their misanthropic march through history even now.
If you tell me the entire history of an issue, I will give you the answer. We have gone through all of this before. From the economic boondoggles of the FDR administration to the complete and utter incompetence of the Carter administration. Green energy foolishness is another one of his many failures, which includes the creation of the Energy Department in 1977. But at least these guys could claim some degree of ignorance because these ideas hadn't really been tried before.
There's no excuse for that now. These government bureaucrats have:
- Never in their lives had real jobs.
- Never ran successful businesses.
- Never had to forego paychecks to make sure their employees and bills were paid.
- Never put their house on the line to start or keep a business running.
- Never worked 16 hour days on a regular basis.
Why, all of a sudden, would we expect these people to be able to tell those who have done all of that to make their businesses successful, what they should be doing to be more successful?
- These are people who have embraced economic philosophies that have failed consistently worldwide.
- These people hate capitalism.
Why would be think they could run an entire economic system successfully? The Bernie Brigade has never done it in the past, and they want to do the same things now that failed in the past, so why would any sane person believe following all those failed policies and schemes will turn out differently now?
We need to get this. You can't fix stupid, and that's what someone has to be when they ignore the obvious facts of history in order to push an agenda that has failed over and over again.
That's not only stupid, it's called a definition for insanity.
At the beginning of the 20th century many thought socialism might be the future. But time is the great leveler of truth, and now we absolutely know better! Time and Truth are on the same side. There's no excuse for continuing to promote socialism for any society because we now know it will never work, and it destroys lives.
That's history, and that history is incontestable. Again, Time and Truth are on the same side.
To continue to push such an agenda in face of all that history makes them not only stupid and insane, it makes them evil, because they've embraced what we now know is utterly evil in the end. Socialism!
- Who but an evil person would deny aid to starving people as has Maduro in Venezuela?
- Who but an evil person could impose the mass starvation or the murder of tens of millions of people in Cuba, Cambodia, Russia and China as did Castro, Pol Pot, Stalin and Mao?
- Who but an evil person could fail to condemn them as Bernie Sanders and many others in the Congress have failed to do?
Evil is as evil does, and those who support or defend those evil persons share in the guilt of their evil deeds.
So what is it? Are they evil? Are they stupid. Or are they insane?
Yes!
Can you Feel the Bern?
