Shelby Steele on American anti-Americanism
Among today’s liberal elite, bad faith in America is a sophistication, a kind of hipness. More importantly, it is the perfect formula for political and governmental power. It rationalizes power in the name of intervening against evil—I will use the government to intervene against the evil tendencies of American life (economic inequality, structural racism and sexism, corporate greed, neglect of the environment and so on), so I need your vote.
Very well observed within an article on the upcoming “Referendum on the Redeemer.” (Which you should read in full.)

Don’t ask impertinent questions like that jackass Adept Lu.
