It's a cliche by now that liberalism is a mental disease. By liberalism of course I'm not referring to the true meaning of the word, rather to the ghastly simulacrum with which it gets equated today. One of its key characteristics is to virtue signal irrespective of the consequences. Mass immigration to Europe is an example. The snowflakes quiver in horror whenever 'migrants' get rejected. But following this position to its 'logical' conclusion would mean that every African or Arab who shows up here gets accepted. If that were the case then tens if not hundreds of millions would immediately swarm in. Do they accept the utter impracticality of that? Or do they think there must in actual fact be some form of immigration controls? Which in turn of course means some would get rejected. Back to square one.
But 'liberals' don't bother themselves with such abstractions when there's status-whoring to be done.
Some of you may have heard of this black footballer who suffered 'racial abuse' (of the verbal kind of course) in Italy. He was so bothered that he walked off the pitch. Which got him in trouble with both his club and the football authorities. Cue an explosion of snowflake outrage. 'The match should have been abandoned' they quiver. The cry has been taken up by the myriad of anti-racist quangos and 'charities' which infest this arena. So stripped to its essence this would mean that any player from a designated victim group (i.e. anyone other than straight White Christians) can take it upon himself to get a match abandoned. So you're two goals down with ten minutes left when you hear (mind you nobody else heard it) a racial slur directed at you. Off the field you go and the match gets abandoned.
Can you just imagine trying to run a league in such circumstances? But status-whoring always comes first.
A major article on the inexplicable success of the Alt-Right has appeared in The Atlantic. If you're thinking of reading it....don't. Rubbish from start to finish. What I found remarkable about it was the utter inability to 'get' what's going on. You'd have to ask how these morons have managed to acquire and hold so much power. Example: The article claims that many on the Alt-Right are young unemployed or under-employed White men who blame Affirmative Action for their plight. The article expresses astonishment that they could believe this. But that's the whole point about AA. It is all about discrimination. It's about giving preference in job applications, promotions and university admissions to those who are not White, male, straight and of Christian stock. Yet the Atlantic libtards can't see this.
Yet in our society today they hold both the high moral ground and the power. A bit like these guys.
