LEFTISM IS REALITY DENIAL

The Left in one of its more open-minded moods.

by Brett Stevens

Very few people make it through the thought required to analyze Leftism to its roots. On the surface, we all know what it is: an outlook of supposed compassion which supports feminism, diversity, social welfare programs, and gay rights.

Underneath the surface, Leftism reveals itself as fundamentally an "ideology," or in other words a notion that human preferences for how the world "should be" are more important than how the world actually functions. This was formalized in The Enlightenment™ as the idea of "seeing the world through human reason" as expressed in the individual.
