We are so boned.

It is amazing what you can get away with when you trot out muzzy liberal slogans like "Coexist."

The nice thing about having a Democrat in the White House is that there is never any bad news....

....and the same thing goes for Communists thugs.

Cuba training armed government groups attacking and killing protestors in Venezuela


Yay!, liberal controlled media!

We don't need to hear about how Venezuela has collapsed down the tube of utopian/greedy socialism or how Cubay is providing thugs for repressive socialist regimes!

It might upset the narrative!

The next stage in the Stalinist farce is a public groveling for forgiveness for ungoodbadthought.

The liberal Twitteratie complies:

As Ace accurately observed Friday, Sacco is a liberal, and her joke was actually a self-deprecating reference to white privilege. No one can deny that it was tasteless and, as she says, “insensitive,” but it scarcely justified her public crucifixion. Her apology, while no doubt sincere, is also a signifier: “I get it! I’m a liberal, too!”

But her liberalism (like all liberalism) is misguided, assuming as it does that the problem of AIDS in Africa (or any similar social problem) results from a shortage of caring. This is a species of Magic Thinking: “We could solve this problem, if only we cared enough.” And from this delusion, we get a lot of empty gestures that do nothing to solve problems, but make people feel good about themselves.

Thomas Sowell wrote an entire book about this, The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy – a book that no liberal has ever bothered to read, because if they bothered to read it, they wouldn’t be liberals anymore.//

All hail, magic thinking!
