God’s Politics: Why the Right gets it wrong and the Left doesn’t get it.
Increasingly, “left” and “right” don’t just describe divergent political judgments but also sealed-off understandings of what is true and how we know it.
I was with the Steelers, and I got cut, and I remember, when I left, I was relieved.
I will remember the kisses, our lips raw with love, and how you gave me everything you had and how I offered you what was left of me.
I live in Realville, and my problem is that I'm governed by logic. And some of the claims that are made by people on the left just don't hold up.
The left is back, and it's the only path we have to get out of the spot to which the right has sunken us. Socialism builds and capitalism destroys.
When people hear the term 'political prisoner,' especially on the Left, it becomes a kind of abstraction. Folks are aware of injustice, and they're aware that there are folks in prison who are in prison, you know, largely because of their activism.
The modern Left is not driven by fairness. It is guided by an ideology of greed and envy. Those are vices, not virtues.
The field of politics always presents the same struggle. There are the Right and the Left, and in the middle is the Swamp. The Swamp is made up of know-nothings, of them who are without ideas, of them who are always with the majority.
The near-total control of the most prestigious universities and colleges by intolerant extremists of the left is breeding not only generations of entitled little authoritarians but legions of apologists for violence against their own perceived enemies.
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning, my baby left without warning.
Oh, sure... I was trying to make to make a point that we shouldn't be afraid to debate the left, even on the environment. That was obviously misconstrued, and that's one of the things I probably won't do again
By silencing speech, the new Left makes life more dangerous by leaving violence as the only option. Maybe that's what they want.
I was taught, growing up, that there are two ends of the political spectrum: left and right. But there's so much more than that. For me, it's about liberty versus authoritarianism.
To understand the Left, one must understand that in its view the greatest evil is material inequality. The Left is more troubled by economic inequality than by evil as humanity has generally understood the term.
We must stand firm against the Left's nationalisation obsession.
More recently, as faith gave way to materialism, anti-Semitism assumed a secular mode, harnessing itself to the dominant ideologies of both the Left and the Right.
We have a strong relationship, Juve and I, even after I left in 2010.
I am from the Left, but I am happy to work with people from the Right.
Anyone who studies the history of ideas should notice how much more often people on the political left, more so than others, denigrate and demonize those who disagree with them - instead of answering their arguments.
Anti-racism is one of our central values and there was a time not long ago when the left actively confronted anti-Semitism.
The calls for socialism on the left get louder and louder, and they don't stop.
The progressive left holds up as a norm a state the world has never seen, and regards as an anomaly something seen in societies all over the world and down through history.
The fact is, you never compromise on principles. If people on the far Left, they have a principle to stand by, they should never compromise; those of us on the Right should not either.
If you are truly on the left, if you reject ideas of power and hierarchy, what you want is equality. Otherwise, it won't work at all.
