Elizabeth Warren’s ‘Social Contract’ an Ideological Fantasy
No, ari, it is not just about arguments to bat down Leftists. Those are important, sure. The “spluttering” also serves its prupose, the purpose of speaking to the general concepts. Not everyone who reads here is a Conservative. Those who are may still be missing parts of the whole picture. Certainly, this site has affected me over the years, despite starting as a Conservative. I am always surprised when I see a new person posting here, who has never heard these basics that are old hat, and we have to re-hash for his benefit. One always has to return to the basics.
Restating it again and again in different ways serves the purpose of getting us all to the same general place. The Left’s greatest strength is that they are all there. Sure, they put forth the marching orders, but there is also a weltanschauung supporting them. They are organized. We have not been.
So, preaching to the choir is necessary, in order to establish and re-establish the basics. This recruits for us and arms us. The more specific arguments are great for disarming the foe. Both are needed.
