(The) Great liberal whitewash

HT Tim Blair. Oped piece that refers to some recent research on political attitudes and racism. Not a real surprise to me, but interesting nonetheless.

#3  Well said Anon.

"blind rage and hate within them" ... you mean like the Hilderbeast, Gore, and Howard Dean?

#2  The left collectively have a superiority complex. It the the pretense that they are intellectually, emotionally, and especially morally superior to others.

Since even a dullard can see this is not the case, it is coupled with a continual effort to re-define what intelligence, emotional maturity, and morality is. Often they try to define these things as the exact opposite of what they are.

Lastly, they try to destroy existing standards of quality. Lowering educational standards, "defining deviancy down", and citing their own whiny temper tantrums as example of emotional maturity.

All in an effort to feel superior to others while knowing beyond doubt how inferior they really are.

This superiority complex truly defines most in the left. It explains what they feel is important, how they attack their enemies, and how and whom they embrace.

Race is one of the easiest ways for them to feel superior to someone else. In past they saw other races as "children of nature living in a state of grace". But reality soon made itself known. So they re-defined other races as inferiors who must be raised and enlightened by their betters, namely the leftists.

But this is the crudest and most offensively patronizing way to approach someone else. Even the smallest handout must be repaid with bowing and scraping before the superior leftist. Almost nobody, even among primitive peoples, were willing to demean themselves for some trinket.

In the 1950s, this resulted in all the white liberals being expelled from the NAACP, an organization they had helped found. In the 1970s, white liberals were kicked off the Indian reservations, again for being rudely patronizing.

Only Africa, that bottomless pit, was willing to bow and grovel endlessly. But it was such a nasty place, and so out of the limelight, that only the hungriest of egos could abide the place any great length of time.

But this being said about leftists, it is obvious what their psychological weak point is. And when a pschological gambit is used that irritates this personality flaw, will you see the blind rage and hate within them, directed at those they feel are unfairly blessed with "life's lottery".

#1  Not a surprise to me either.

Liberals (Lefties) are obsessed with race.
