    Default Yet Another Enlightening Article

    https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/n...illa-oligarchy

    Read this one I ask, and I ask if he isn't wrong? He's not IMO. As this is the richest source of data from "liberals" I have access to that aren't sadly invalid sources of data I ask you all what your reaction is to this.

    By liberal invalids I of course mean SJW soy infested types. Not be amongst them will travel .

    The meat of the article amounts to maybe two paragraphs, the rest is a list of complaints, and the style is pretentious. About par for the course for conservative media.

    The enlightened oligarchy and its elite servant classes follow Woodrow Wilson’s progressive dogma: “If you will think about what you ought to do for other people, your character will take care of itself.”
    And here's the main problem. The right is completely incapable of understanding its enemy. "The enlightened oligarchy," it says. Who is this oligarchy in the conservative wormed-out brain? What does the right suppose this oligarchy has to gain by pushing identity politics?

    The author gets so close to understanding with passages like this:

    America’s ruling class—bipartisan, public and private—grew to disdain the rest of America’s religiosity, patriotism, and tastes.
    If only we had a religious, patriotic, and beer-loving ruling class! LOL, the parody writes itself.

    You withdrew from Mesopotamia and are withdrawing from Afghanistan. Maybe y'all should secede so that there are enough corpses for two graveyards.

    "The enlightened oligarchy" kekw Americans were truly the correct people to exploit. A genius move, blind, deaf and dumb to the slaughter they go.
