This is Frustrating

Everything printed in a mainstream newspaper rests on the assumption that our government is good and right and that it’s in our best interest to serve it and obey it. Guys like Bob Herbert never challenge that assumption, but rather feed into it by writing about things they don’t understand and doling out labels to people with unpopular beliefs. Nothing at all is gained by this, but everyone “feels good” and their practiced obedience is further reinforced. Government-mandated progressivism is an outlet for superficial people, and ultimately serves a sinister agenda (as this blogger correctly points out in “America’s Progressives”).
