Hypocrisy
My husband, Phil Lawler, writes about the inherent hypocrisy of liberal ideology.
Usually when critics use the word hypocrisy in the context of political disagreements, they are pointing to the double standard employed, whereby some real offense is winked at because it is committed by an ally, where it would be excoriated if the perpetrator were an enemy.
Thus, conservatives often lament that an outrage aimed at Christians receives no censure; "Can you imagine if this had happened to a gay person?" they will cry. "It would be all over the front page." Such biases are so common, one must conclude they are not a result of ignorance or oversight. Pointing them out seems to have no effect.
But Phil has a different point here, and it's one worth paying attention to, for self-preservation's sake. He notices that when a Leftist accuses a non-Leftist* of doing something outrageous, that Leftist is in fact committing the offense.
Phil has a long list of such examples and I encourage you to read it all, because, as I say, it can help us protect ourselves. Constantly feeling that we have to defend ourselves prevents us from being able to take steps to stop aggression.
*Not just conservatives -- really anyone just living their lives according to standards held until very recently, most of which we would have called "liberal," in fact. So it's also worth noting how successful Leftists are at shifting the whole playing field.)
