Whenever I argue with liberals and they preach to me about immigration, education, or women\u2019s rights, their lack of knowledge on the subject makes it clear they\u2019ve never looked it up. \u201cIt\u2019s never about what it\u2019s about,\u201d as Derb would say. Ask them how many illegals are in the country and they\u2019ll rarely get within 10 million of the number. Ask them how much we spend per student per year and they\u2019ll say, \u201cNot enough.\u201d Ask them how much young women without kids make compared with men and they\u2019ll say, \u201cWomen need a choice.\u201d They\u2019re not in it for the truth. They\u2019re in it for the platitudes of the crusade and the power it evokes. We all know that by know. The question is why.<\/p>\n<p>Carmel has a fascinating answer. \u201cThe destruction of the family,\u201d he opines, \u201cis the single most destructive force in the past 40 years.\u201d Amier then discusses the back-and-forth kids do, going from mom to dad every time they have a grievance. \u201cThis dance,\u201d he says, \u201cis how we attain justice. It\u2019s how the parameters of our sense of internal integrity are defined.\u201d Amier seems particularly concerned with the lack of fathers. \u201cThe father sets down the law. When he is not there, a sense of anxiety takes root and that leads to outwardly directed hostility. Soon you are looking to the outside world to show you what the limits are. You\u2019re \u2018acting out\u2019 and hoping society will control you. The desire for paternal law becomes pathologized.\u201d Amier calls PC violations \u201cnarcissistic injury\u201d and adds that this fear-driven petulance becomes especially dangerous when the ideology becomes someone\u2019s entire identity. \u201cWhen that happens,\u201d he says, \u201cit\u2019s as though rationality and socialized relationships dissolve. The ideologically identified person can often become wildly reckless because they seek the obscuring of accountability with increased pathos.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We can see this in the liberal demigod Che Guevera. His insatiable lust for power was cloaked as a need for justice, but it\u2019s arguably just a case of a mentally ill child trying to impose order on a world he felt was spinning out of control. Che grew up in a household where his emotionally absent father would openly flaunt infidelity. Ernesto Guevara Lynch was a loser who blew his wife\u2019s fortune on himself and young girls. I\u2019ve noticed a pattern with liberals and fathers who were negligent and financially irresponsible. So much of their belief system seems to come from revenge. This is why they attack white men for looking at someone funny but turn a blind eye to a child prostitution ring in Rotherham. This is also why feminists won\u2019t shut up about the \u201cwhite male patriarchy\u201d (\u201cpatriarch\u201d meaning \u201cfather\u201d) but have nothing to say about the shocking difference between black-on-white rape and white-on-black rape. Che is no different. He took his pain and turned it into a crusade against the world. This is why liberals put him on a T-shirt. They don\u2019t like him because he freed Cuba or forced socialism down its throat. They like him because he personifies the cry-bully. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gavin McInnes talks to Dr. Amier Carmel, a New York psychoanalyst, about trauma and &#8220;cry-bullies&#8221;: He describes the cry-bullies as people with \u201can intense need to control\u201d and says that \u201cthe resentment associated with this need to correct is often an induced feeling used to fix another problem.\u201d This makes perfect sense.
