p>Once again Emmett Tyrrell has indulged himself in one of his
greatest pleasures — imagining that liberals are about to end
Christmas. Never mind that he has confused Christmas with a lot of
contemporary cultural hoopla. If I could wave a magic wand and
address all of the grievances enumerated, I wouldn’t do it. In this
time of giving it would be shameful to take away something the
gentleman cherishes so deeply.

Why is “disturbing the peace” at the heart of the liberal project? Because “disturbing the peace” is the practical means by which the liberal activist feeds his or her sense of moral vanity.
You see, ironically, Hegelian logic seems to have some basis in reality. “A” can be simultaneously equal to “not-A.”
p>The proclaimed selflessness of the activist liberal is merely the proclamation of pathological self-absorption. For the liberal activist, it (whatever that may be at the moment) always was, and always will be, about themselves and their moral superiority. br> — Nat Pomrenze
