There is nothing more

annoying,
agitating,
enraging,
insulting,
and
angering

to me (and I presume most of you) than when I present a leftist or a liberal irrefutable economic data and proof they are just flat out wrong and then they proceed to

worm out of it with the most flaccid and intellectually dishonest of lies.

More than once I've had a leftist resort to the pathetic and "admission of wrongness" excuse,

"well, my perception is my own reality."

Never have I ever wanted to cause physical harm to people more than in those instances.

I personally could never understand it.  Here's the data, here's the logic, here's the reasoning, you're wrong.

WRONG WRONG WRONG!!!!

Only to have them retort in the liberal's version of "I know you are, but what am I?"

So after a while I gave up.  If people are going to insist on being impervious to logic, fact and reason as Detroit collapses around them then how do you convince them?  This is largely why this blog has gone from one of data, charts and statistics, to more of one of philosophy, rants, shame and mockery.  If all the research, data, and empiricism I've expended considerable resources on is just going to be dismissed, fine.  I'm switching to philosophy, ridiculing everybody, and am going to enjoy watching them suffer their own self-inflicted misery.

However, this mere switch never answered the burning question,

"What in the Patron Saint's Name of Frick is wrong with these people who refuse reality over ideology?  What is their mental damage that they can't see the sky is blue?"

Enter in Stefan Molyneux.

I was listening to this podcast of his and at the 1hr 2min 20 second mark he answers it.

All I could say was "Why the hell didn't I see this before???"

This doesn't mean leftists and liberals won't stop destroying the country.

This doesn't mean leftists and liberals won't stop performing the most amazing mental acrobatics to rationalize believing in lies.

But it does mean you and I and every other sane person out there can now fully understand why these inferior humans consciously and purposely believe something they (probably) deep down inside know to be false, and will continue to be impervious to logic, reason, sanity, fact, data and intellectual honesty.
