    God I wish that everything that liberals believed was true. Just think about it:

    • Communists have infiltrated colleges, and maybe even the entire education system

    • China is planning an invasion of the US

    • Trump is going to destroy the US alliance with Europe and break up NATO

    • Communists are a large and well-organised enough that they can undermine elections and they have enough people influence to sway people's politics

    • Capitalism is good, actually, and it's going to improve the lives of people in the developing world and things are improving for the people of the US

    • Voting for the Democrats will stop fascism

    • The "good guys" are good and the "bad guys" are bad

    • All we need is to tweak at the dials in order to make things right

    • The global hegemon is a benevolent force in the world

    Shit, don't threaten me with a good time...

    You could randomly pick any one of these things and if you wished it into reality I'd be overjoyed at the outcome.

      God I know that feeling

      Back when I was a radlib I would sometimes think "I don't believe in the American dream but I really wish I could"
