One of the nastiest intellectual habits of the intellectual Left

is that it prescribes set political agendas or menus which must be followed by rote or diktat, and in full.

If the first course is the emancipation and equal treatment of women, the main course must be a smorgasbord of left of centre, politically correct social attitudes. Any deviation from this norm, and from this prescribed package of values and policies provokes a “moral” outrage which requires the vilification of the “deviant” who has strayed from orthodoxy. That vilification can often be carried out with all the zeal of a medieval religious fanatic confronting a so called “heretic”, that is someone who had the temerity not to follow God’s will as revealed to the zealot. -- The Hatred of Maggie — Anna Raccoon

Your Say

Well, that's the thing about the left. They're made up of the same people who burned witches, burned books, and shunned people out of town for being left handed or just not like them. They are the people they most gleefully love to attack in literature and film: they are the ones who gather in mobs to destroy the other, carrying torches and chanting phrases. They are often the most intolerant, bitter, and hateful people in our culture.

And yet, they always think its the right who is this batch of mean spirited bigots.
