Maajid Nawaz tweeted a thread that sums up what we have been seeing on the Left and from celebrities since the death of Soleimani.
And as you know as a Twitchy reader, it ain't good.
But Nawaz puts it in such a way that it's not just pointing and laughing at them like we enjoy doing.
Guess you could say he's one of the only adults in the room.
Check it out:
MaajidNawaz ~ So far: Iran lost her top-terrorist, inflicted zero US or Iraqi casualties, backed down & Trump deescalated. No WWIII happened.
Meanwhile leftists & celebs who'd never heard of #Soleimani before, went from hyperventilating to full on cheerleading for a theocracy over a democracy.
If you can't admit what has happened with Soleimani is a good thing for the WHOLE world you might have TDS.
Not even joking.
MaajidNawaz ~ Brexit (which I didn't see), Trump's election (by which time I predicted it), dangers of Corbyn (by which time I was shouting it everyday) & now this #Soleimani thing.
Why are the left increasingly so unable to identify reality, while accusing everyone *but themselves* of this?
Because reality doesn't support their narrative or agenda.
That's why.
MaajidNawaz ~ I have started to suspect that the modern left's dogmatism & serious intellectual decline is caused by a deep, deep narcissism, born of boredom, aloofness & arrogance due to their over privileged luxurious lives (they may not mean to be like this, but nevertheless do it anyway).
Bored and arrogant.
Boom.
MaajidNawaz ~ This means that it's *their* hatred of Trump (right or wrong) or anyone else, not reality nor humanitarianism nor principles, that defines how they think about issues.
The world revolves around *them* & their outrage. Not for example, 1/2 million Syrians Soleimani helped to kill.
The world revolves around THEM and their outrage.
He nailed this.
MaajidNawaz ~ Such behaviour has manifested itself by the western left repeatedly over the last few years & is getting more & more hysterical after each loss. To the point that they sneer, preach & then scream at those of us who are "meant" to support them if we don't do *exactly* what they say.
The Left abhors any person from a demographic they think they own who disagrees with them.
MaajidNawaz ~ A black person who doesn't agree is 'house', a Muslim who strays off the colony is a 'native informant', a woman who questions gender is abused, a speaker they don't like is banned.
All while grovelling & apologising to some of the world's worst tyrants, dictators & theocrats.
Ding ding ding ding and ding.
So much this.
MaajidNawaz ~ Such thinking has moved from social media to universities, from there to graduate work places. Young professionals are usually bookers, hence from work to our media punditry. I worry this represents the intellectual decline of society. A precursor to political decline.
And this.
MaajidNawaz ~ Here are some samples from this recent debacle of people with tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands or millions of followers acting puerile, weak, naive, cowardly & so arrogantly, by wading in hard on an issue they simply knew absolutely nothing about.
{Link to examples}
Look at these yahoos. Ben Rhodes, Michael Moore, Jeremy Corbyn ...
MaajidNawaz ~ Politics is downstream from culture. Our culture is weak right now. This is why I've written 'resisting the democratisation of truth' in my bio. I think I'm more effective outside politics, addressing thought & culture objectively. I hope we can turn this tide of apparent decline.
MaajidNawaz ~ Thank you for reading.
No, thank YOU.
