HT: Vox, John Wright finds the G K Chesterton/C S Lewis/Allan Bloom unified theory of Leftist Asininity.
He begins with the proposition:
...The theory must explain, first, the honest decency of the modern
liberals combined with their astonishing indifference, nay, hostility to
facts, common sense, and evidence; second, it must explain their high
self-esteem (or, to be blunt, their pathological narcissism) combined
not merely with an utter lack of accomplishment, but with their utter
devotion to destructiveness, a yearning to ruin everything they touch;
third, it must explain their sanctimoniousness combined with their
applause, praise, support, and tireless efforts to spread all
perversions (especially sexual), moral decay, vulgarity, and every form
of desecration; fourth, their pretense of intellectual superiority
combined with their notorious mental fecklessness; fifth, it must
explain both their violence and their pacifism; sixth, the theory must
explain why they hate the very things they should love most; seventh,
the theory must explain why they are incapable of comprehending an
honest disagreement or any honorable foe....
And he proceeds to the answer, which you'll have to read on your own. It's worth it.
My explanation is even more simple.
