Liberals are Miserable

Most liberals I know are miserable, as in the sense that they are very unhappy people who hate most of the things about their lives, and about the world. Not infrequently does one hear a desire to wipe the whole thing out, or least to nuke humanity and leave the world for the plants and animals.

I have Bernard Chapin to thank for this insight (as well as the one about liberals being obsessed with Pop Culture). Chapin has been one of my favorite Anti-Marxist commentators for several years running now.

Chapin recently pointed out that liberals just had a great run with Obama, and should be crowing and celebrating. Instead they are the unhappiest of people around. Why? Because it is in their nature to be unhappy.

The miserable state of the souls of liberals is probably why most of Pop Culture these days is about the experiences of miserable people inflicting pain upon each other. The enlightened path is to cynically just "hate it all" and wish for the giant meteor.

I pity them, all the while knowing there is nothing I can do for them. They are black holes, consuming all attention while never being satisfied.

I suspect this is partly due to the fact that the liberal religion, being all about Pop Culture, exalts its own version fame above all else. Only famous people are truly alive. Only famous people really count.

To be a liberal and to not be famous is the worst hell, and the worst sin. Since most people are not famous, and never will be, then they are condemned to a life of misery.
