Harvard has turned my claim that liberalism is literally insanity - liberals are divorced from reality and no matter how many times over how many centuries their policies fail, they continue to support them - and asks if libertarianism is mental illness. Too funny. Since libertarianism has never failed, and it created the greatest country the world has ever known, the answer is no. This conference proves liberalism is insanity because these people think the free market failed despite that our money system is 100 percent socialist institution, our income tax is Marxist and government policies created the subprime housing market.
As funny as this is, it’s still dangerous. I predict this is the first volley in a coordinated effort by the academic left to brainwash college students into thinking that anybody who supports free markets has a mental problem, thereby dismissing any free market argument from debate.
This reminds me of Yuri Maltsev’s “Inflation and the Bolsheviks” lecture, wherein he mentioned that there was a symptom listed in a textbook that the negation of obvious achievements of the Soviet Union was a mental disease.
Liberals are refusing to fight on the field of ideas, and this sounds like an attempt to wrap ridicule in the trappings of academia. All to avoid the process Ghandi described. It’ll be interesting to see how liberals continue to blame the free market for the next 4 years, but they will.
There is no character, howsoever good and fine, but can be destroyed by ridicule, howsoever poor and witless. Observe the ass, for instance; his character is about perfect, he is the choicest spririt among all the humbler animals; yet see what ridicule has brought him to. Instead of feeling complimented when we are called an ass, we are left in doubt.
ROFL @ fezwhatley’s pic. And she’ll be the first person sent to the Anti-Obesity Re-Education Camp when the idiot leftists she adores are put in charge.
It’s so typical of arrogant pampered liberals to assume that anyone who disagrees with them must suffer from a mental disorder. They can’t take our arguments head on, so this is what they have to resort to.
It’s nowhere near a ‘first volley’. The academic left has been active, and horribly effective, in higher education in the USA for well over 70 years now.
