The (P)regressives continue to implode
with even angrier explanations of Shillary’s loss with a side whine about the
down ticket races. This lapsed Blue Dog thinks they have become a cult. From
Wikipedia.
The word "cult"
has always been controversial because it is (in a pejorative sense)
considered a subjective term, used as an ad hominem attack against groups with differing doctrines or
practices.[7][8] Cults
range in size from local groups with a few members to international
organizations with millions.[9]
It seems to me the American Media Maggots
(h/t Bloviating Zeppelin) are attempting to retain cult membership while
creating an illusion of impartiality. What is really up with them is trying to preserve
their rice bowls in the face of plummeting revenues. Just as their slavish
(cult) devotion to the Shillary campaign failed, so will the current “fake news”
narrative.
You can’t stop free speech. I’m old
enough to remember duplicating machine produced tracts being passed around. The
John Birch Society comes to mind. Now we have the internet. The attacks on
content under the false flag of “net neutrality” and blocking “fake news” sites
only shows how powerful a tool the internet is for free speech and the dissemination
of different views.
Back to my point, if there is one, many
of the SJW “issues” find some level of agreement among “basket” members while
the interests of “deplorable” are rejected, or given lip service, by the SJWs.
Thus, they are a cult.
