At the Death-to-the-Arabs rally in Jerusalem tonight, a young woman is asked if she identifies with the genocidal slogans being chanted: “I speak nicely. I don’t say, ‘May your village burn!’ I say, ‘You will leave the village, and then we will live in it” https://t.co/5a8tYtCcFv— David Sheen (@davidsheen) April 22, 2021
This is your brain on liberalism. This is what happens when you think that the mood and the method of an execution determine the level of justice involved. This is objecting to a hanging because the judge forgot a hood for the condemned. This is demanding that the axes of the king's executioner be at their utmost sharpest, because a dull edge would be "cruel."
It is pure liberalism because it lacks the confrontation of reaction. There is no "I object to you people existing and I want you to not exist!" There is only the quiet liberal echo of the same sentiment, carrying the same intent: "I'd prefer if you never existed at all to begin with."
