It is that ‘problem’ — readily admitted by Alexander — that makes his explanation truly awesome. The Left has nothing to do with what the downtrodden ‘think’, and everyone — once pressed — is relieved to admit that. Now everything makes sense. We’re discussing a thought-pattern (Leftism) exclusively native to affluent degenerates, with the social sub-strata occasionally latching on, opportunistically, and uncomprehendingly.

Brilliant. I need to use this idea whenever I (cautiously) bring Reactionary critique into my academic world. It can potentially block the ‘ethical reaction’ to Reaction, which is the default setting of most Leftists who come into contact with anything of the Right: “B, b, but . . . what about . . . ”

“We’re not talking about them; we’re talking about Leftism; we’re talking about you .”
