Bash me some more
"'I hate America' is the world’s default position. Knocking America is a form of displacement. It helps non-Americans avoid focusing on their own big problems. In fact, strip it of its lacy hosiery and the world’s relationship with America is disgustingly Freudian."
So says Dominic Hilton, in an article for the website Open Democracy.
This long tome by Hilton is interesting. Particularly, I suppose, because he does his part to expose the vacuuous gibberish behind the 'hate America' juggernaut that has rolled for the better part of three years to...where?...nowhere substantive. But he tries to be fair about it.
To all of you Ward Churchill types, you leftist gend'armes, where do you seek to go with your rhetoric? To which utopia do you seek to deliver us?
"Some of America’s most sour critics preach their gospels in America’s palatial universities. A highly desirable standard of living is endowed on those who make their living attacking America’s highly desirable standard of living. Ditto its liberty."
Thank the good Lord Above, and stand fast, dear friends. To be on the right side of history is to trust in one's good, common sense.
