Truth is not a left-wing value.
I first discovered this as a graduate student studying the Soviet Union and left-wing ideologies at the Russian Institute of Columbia University School of International Affairs. Everything I have learned since has confirmed this view.
Individuals on both the left and right lie. Individuals on both the left and right tell the truth. And liberalism, unlike leftism, does value truth. But the further left one goes, the more one enters the world of the lie.
Why does the left lie?
There are two main reasons.
One is that leftists deem their goals more important than telling the truth. For example, every honest economist knows women do not earn 20 percent less money than men for the same work done for the same amount of hours under the same conditions. Yet leftists repeat the lie that women earn 78 cents for every dollar men earn.
Why any employers would hire men when they could hire women and get the same amount of work done at the same level of excellence for the same number of hours while saving 20 cents on the dollar is a question only God or the sphinx could answer.
So, when New York Times columnists write this nonsense, do they believe it?

If Prager says it, I'll trust him and believe it.
ReplyDeleteAll democrats are liars and all lie all the time and lie about everything. The only time they didn't lie was when they called themselves nasty and nasty putrid gross some kind of uncivilized primal sub species of the human being they are.
ReplyDeleteAbout this wage thing what they leave out so they can lie to their equally as primal and liar base is that man of the men have had the jobs longer so of course have been subject to raises.
