I’m going to go out on a limb here and presume you are part of that talk radio audience.

You toss around a number of terms here (liberal collectivist, socialism, National Socialism) in a manner which indicates you haven’t bothered to study up and figure out what they actually mean or have represented historically. Essentially, you are repeating what Rush or Levin or Hannity say, obviously assuming them to be authorities on such subjects.

Let’s just take your example of “National Socialism”, the label for the Nazi movement under Hitler. I gather that because the word “socialism” is part of the title, you presume some identification between Nazism and “socialism”. That’s fairly odd in that one group of people the Nazis took great care to isolate and gas or execute in some other manner were German (or Austrian or Polish, etc) socialists. Not to mention the war between Russia and Germany.

You are being encouraged by the folks to whom you listen to be lazy in thought and in your own education. You are, in short, rather an exemplar of much of what Derbyshire writes about in his piece above.

That’s one hell of a fine site you have up there. Hats off to you.
