Why do Western politicians and the Mainstream Media hale and defend Islam? Why do they promote the welfare state? Why do literary critics lionize salacious and third-rate novelists? Why do art critics exhaust Roget’s Thesaurus in their praise of anti-art? Why do politicians and journalists side with the global warming advocates, and then, when global warming has been repudiated, side with “climate change” advocates who promote the same fraud? What makes these paradoxes so common in our culture?

There are several explanations, none of them pretty or complimentary. There are three main culprits: subjectivism, egalitarianism, and relativism....

That I think sums up liberal philosophy, or lack thereof.
