@ Another study shows that a racist hatred of
one's own race – auto-racism – has become a
defining characteristic of the liberal mind. Interesting, huh?

The Secret to the Suicidal Liberal Mind - Jack
Wheeler http://www.tothepointnews.com/ Monday, Jan. 21, 2002

What do Harvard president Larry Summers, Taliban
John Walker, Delta Airlines officials and the
editors of the New York Times have in common with
Yanomamo tribeswomen in the Amazon jungle?

To answer this question is to understand the root
cause of liberal "white guilt." Lakes of ink have
been splashed on newspaper, magazine and journal
pages ruminating and anguishing over the
bottomless guilt that pervades the liberal soul.

Paul Craig Roberts, economist and columnist,
writes eloquently about the anti-white racism
endemic in American universities that demonizes
white males as the font of all evil. Shelby
Steele of the Hoover Institute explained in the
Wall Street Journal recently how white guilt
empowers racist frauds such as Cornel West.

The self-loathing of the white American liberal
is as well-established and documented as
Einstein's Special Relativity theorems. A typical
example is writer Susan Sontag's denouncement of
the white race as "the cancer of human history."

A racist hatred of one's own race – auto-racism –
has become a defining characteristic of the
liberal mind. Yet the source of such suicidal guilt remains a mystery.

Clearly understanding what disables liberals from
wanting to defend their culture is today a mortal
necessity – an absolute requirement if America is
to be preserved and protected from Moslem
terrorists and other folk desirous of her demise.

Exploitation and Black Magic ....... [snip -
click link below to read the snipped part]

..... It is an ultimate irony of modern times
that left-wing Marxist-type intellectuals
consider themselves to be in the progressive
vanguard of sophisticated contemporary thought --
when in reality their thinking is nothing but an
atavism, a regression to a primitive tribal
mentality. What the Left calls "exploitation" is
what anthropologists call "black magic."

As sociologist Helmut Schoeck summarizes in his
seminal work, "Envy: A Theory of Human Behavior"
(and who collected the above anthropologists' observations):

A self-pitying inclination to contemplate
another's superiority or advantages, combined
with a vague belief in his being the cause of
one's own deprivation, is also to be found among
educated members of our modern societies who
really ought to know better. The primitive
people's belief in black magic differs little
from modern ideas. Whereas the socialist believes
himself robbed by the employer, just as the
politician in a developing country believes
himself robbed by the industrial countries, so
primitive man believes himself robbed by his
neighbor, the latter having succeeded by black
magic in spiriting away to his own fields part of the former's harvest.

The primitive atavism of left-wing bromides like
"the rich get richer and the poor get poorer" is
best illustrated by arguing that one can be
healthy only at the expense of others. That in
order to be in superior health, bursting with
energy and vitality, one has to make someone else
sick or in poor health -- just as in order to be
rich you have to make others poor.

The healthy are healthy because they unjustly
exploited and ripped off the sick, spiriting away
the sick's fair share of health with black magic.
In fact, the sick are sick because the healthy
are healthy. If this is absurd, then claiming the
poor are poor because they have been exploited by the rich is equally absurd.

Fear of Being Envied

Pandering to the envious, and intimidating those
who are afraid of them, has been the path to
power of all modern demagogues, from Lenin and
Hitler to Yassir Arafat and Osama bin Laden.

The three great political pathologies of the 20th
century are all religions of envy: Nazism,
preaching race envy toward "rich, exploitative
Jews"; Communism, preaching class envy toward the
"rich, exploitative bourgeoisie"; and Moslem
terrorism, preaching culture envy toward the "rich, exploitative West."

Envy-mongering has always been and continues to
be the underlying strategy of all variants of the
political Left, such as the Democratic Party.
What a Yanomamo woman calls "black magic" and a
Marxist professor at Harvard calls
"exploitation," Tom Daschle calls "tax break for the rich."

So here we discover the secret fear at the source
of the suicidal liberal mind. It is envy that
makes a Nazi, a Communist or a terrorist. It is
the fear of being envied that makes a liberal and
is the source of "liberal guilt." .......
