Call me Quixotic – I I keep attempting to engage them in discussion; I know, it’s like banging your head against an Adamantium wall but hope springs eternal. If, looking more and more like when, the balloon goes up and it’s time for “I do not talk with liberals; they are only for killing” I want to be able to look at myself in the mirror honestly to say I tried my damnedest to prevent it with words.
But they’re not making it easy. They are the anointed; as aptly described by Dr. Thomas Sowell in his book The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy, they’re utterly immune to facts, reason, logic, and evidence that contradict their vision of the world and how it should be. (I’m almost done with this phenomenal book and I can’t recommend it strongly enough; every page has notes, underlines, and comments that I’ve written in the hopes that my children will read this book and not only see things that I believe are important – but come to understand their father better.)
Coupled with this is a seething arrogance. Consider this quote, pulled from the comments here (warning, gag alert if you go there) and just imagine the mindset of this person; do you think they even view Conservatives as human, because it's doubtful:

I completely concur. It has become increasingly difficult to find do much as an individual on the left that is willing to even discuss the issues in a civil manner. Virtually every response is prefaced with if not exclusively profanity, crudeness and thinly veiled threats. And that's the "polite" ones! The others simply curse your parantage, accuse you of insest etc. Not only is there no civility in them, there is very little evidence of civilization in them.
ReplyDeletethere is very little evidence of civilization in them.
DeleteWell said.
If you ask them, they'll say they're very civilized and that we, refusing to accede to their enlightened Philosopher-King rule, are the savages.
DeleteBut this is their FAITH. They are MISSIONARIES, bent on bringing a one-world Socialist Utopia to fruition on earth; since their goal is noble, and they truly believe they can eliminate hunger, and poverty, and crime, and war, and bigotry, etc., etc., etc., anyone who stands in their way is, by definition, evil because we oppose that goal.
And we know what happens when one side, in power, views another side as evil... if we are evil, then surely their "noble" side get rid of that evil as a service to humanity?
