« It's lonely at the top... | Main | The mental model that people tend to have about leftists tends to be fundamentally rationalistic and utilitarian »

This is a chorus ever-repeating in the musical that is Marxist insanity:
It is the sort of mental slippage consequential to reading the future, with all the certainty attendant to recollection of the past. Then again, if lefties had some useful comprehension of time, they wouldn’t be asserting in 2008 that this is “the moment our planet began to heal,” and then seven years later that the planet’s sickness was worse than ever before, with not a hint of backpedaling, or “sorry I was wrong,” or “seemed like a good idea at the time” — or even, “key change!” Such reflections on the elementary human experience of time, reveal brutally that if this ideological movement retains so much as a semblance of sanity, it’s not any brand of sanity that’s useful to anyone else.

Your Say
Apparently, mass amnesia sets into a population roughly every 30 years; not with the exact regularity of the 17-year locust or Solar Cycles, but with enough warning to be able to head it off.
However, these bouts of hysteria are not headed off because of that even more constant condition known as apathy.

Speaking of evergreens:
When I was young I used to wait
on Massa, and bring him his plate;
and pass the bottle when he got dry,
and brush away the blue-tail fly.
Jimmy crack corn and I don't care,
Jimmy crack corn and I don't care.
Jimmy crack corn and I don't care,
the Massa's gone away.
