SPENGLER: Why Liberals Don’t Care About Consequences. “If you corner a liberal and point to a disaster that followed upon his policy, at very most he will say–-with a tear in the eye and a quivering upper lip–-‘We did the right thing.’ It’s all about having done the right thing according to the dogma of the ersatz liberal religion. Liberalism has nothing whatsoever to do with policy and its real-world consequences. Instead of finding one’s salvation on the path of traditional religions, liberals look for salvation in a set of right opinions–-on race, the environment, income distribution, gender, or whatever.”
