"Hope is doing something. The more futile, the more useless, the more irrelevant and incomprehensible an act of rebellion is, the vaster and the more potent hope becomes. Hope never makes sense. Hope is weak, unorganized and absurd."

Well, yes Chris... clinging to liberal hope is absurd.
Hope is the vicious cruelty liberals offer, in place of the good they could provide... if they ever wanted to.
The "progressive" myth that the corporate party's Democrats are a "lesser evil" has been revealed to be an "historic" contender for the biggest of BIG lies... ever.
In 2006, the aggressive "progressives" got out the vote for Democrats, promising that Conyers would provide impeachments for war criminals... if only more Democrats were elected (for liberals, it's a high crime to commit war crimes incompetently).
After the tsunami of Democrats washed into Washington, on their many promises of good to come that they always cleverly qualify and never keep, Conyers wouldn't walk his impeachment talk. No, the "progressive" Democrat, Conyers, protected war criminals... and he himself, Conyers, had peace activists arrested instead.
After the "progressives" got their "historic progress" in 2008, by having a half-black man, Obama, be now able to commit the highest crimes that only white men could commit before, the limits Republicans had placed upon torture were removed; privacy was invaded more; human rights were made more expendable; environmental destruction became "sustainable development"; war was greater privatized and became far more generally acceptable; and a sick system that profits from sickness was more sickly liberal mandated to have greater profits from ever more denial of healthcare... and so Single-Payer advocates were arrested.
Now, what distinguishes a "progressive" Democrat from a "regressive" Republican is their position on whether gays should, or should not, be allowed to be openly gay, while committing war crimes in close quarters with the "normal" warped minded but sexually straight "good Christian" boys.
Liberals warn that "fascism" will come if Republicans march forward, but when their Democrats quick march human progress backwards that's "reform"!
What "progressives" have proven is that nothing moves America further Right faster than getting more Democrats elected does.
Tiny acts of rebellion creating more hollow hope can't even begin to repair the massive damage that the regressive "progressives" have done, if they ever MoveOn to get out the votes for their greater evil Democrats... again. |
