Progressives’ racism knows no bounds
by Erik Rush
I don’t normally go out of my way to call attention to the products of dubious journalism, lest they receive unmerited attention, but occasionally exceptions have to be made. “Anchor babies, the Ground Zero mosque and other scapegoats,” penned by Matthew Yglesias and published on Aug. 8 by the Washington Post, is a quintessential example of Orwellian Ministry of Propaganda fare, so surreal in its assumptions that it its absurdity is scarcely to be believed, especially to those who do their level best to avoid the Post altogether. It is also a prime example of the composition of progressive racial orthodoxy, which is illustrated very effectively and at several junctures in this piece.
It definitely bears mentioning that Matthew Yglesias is a fellow at the Center for American Progress, which is, for all practical purposes, a Marxist think tank and the current headquarters of avowed communist and former Obama czar Van Jones. This speaks veritable volumes to the subversive, anti-American bent of the publication; no other conclusion can reasonably be drawn.
Progressives wear their cravenness, arrogance and conceit as unconsciously as someone with a giant nose goblin they have yet to detect clinging to their upper lip. The patronizing, imperious mien employed by intellectual elites (and shamelessly evidenced in Yglesias’ piece) in the face of manifestly juvenile, inane logic would inspire uproarious laughter were it not for the fact that the aforementioned intellectual elites have had such success in swaying public opinion across the board.
Read the rest here. Well, worth reading.
I’ve never understood why these people are called “intellectual”. How come anyone who is so ignorant of reality be intellectual?
