Let's look at liberalism

Post by Will Williams » Wed Jun 22, 2022 11:11 pm

Dr. William Pierce said liberalism is a disease of the brain. He was not a trained psychiatrist, but he was correct. Valarie Protopapas has dug up a similar diagnosis from a top psychiatrist who wasn't afraid to tell the truth.

Liberalism As A Mental Disorder…

TOP PSYCHIATRIST CONCLUDES LIBERALS CLINICALLY NUTS EMINENT PSYCHIATRIST MAKES CASE IDEOLOGY IS MENTAL DISORDER

This headline appeared in the World Net Daily on February 15th, 2008, that is, sixteen years ago! The years that followed have only gone to prove just how to correct Dr. Lyle Rossitor was in his conclusions. Sadly, no one at the time realized how much his “diagnosis” was going to matter to ordinary Americans and other good people around the world as liberals did their best to validate the good Doctor’s conclusions. Below is Rossitor’s article. It should be reprinted and widely distributed while there is still time, or, more to the point if there is still time:

WASHINGTON – Just when liberals thought it was safe to start identifying themselves as such, an acclaimed, veteran psychiatrist is making the case that the ideology motivating them is actually a mental disorder.

“Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded,” says Dr. Lyle Rossiter, author of the new book, The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness. “Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave.”

While political activists on the other side of the spectrum have made similar observations, Rossiter boasts professional credentials and a life virtually free of activism and links to “the vast right-wing conspiracy.”

For more than 35 years he has diagnosed and treated more than 1,500 patients as a board-certified clinical psychiatrist and examined more than 2,700 civil and criminal cases as a board-certified forensic psychiatrist. He received his medical and psychiatric training at the University of Chicago.

Rossiter says the kind of liberalism being displayed by the two major candidates for the Democratic Party presidential nomination can only be understood as a psychological disorder.

“A social scientist who understands human nature will not dismiss the vital roles of free choice, voluntary cooperation, and moral integrity – as liberals do,” he says. “A political leader who understands human nature will not ignore individual differences in talent, drive, personal appeal, and work ethic, and then try to impose economic and social equality on the population – as liberals do. And a legislator who understands human nature will not create an environment of rules which over-regulates and over-taxes the nation’s citizens, corrupts their character, and reduces them to wards of the state – as liberals do.”

Dr. Rossiter says the liberal agenda preys on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by:

· creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;

· satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence, and compensation;

· augmenting primitive feelings of envy;

· rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.

“The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind,” he says. “When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains, and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious.” [end of article]

Of course, the problem today is, how do we wrest control of our society and the world from the hands of those who brook no differences of opinion or contrary beliefs and especially when, for generations, they have been able to fill the ranks of the powerful with their own kind. Sadly, as time swiftly runs out for normal, ordinary people in this world, we have yet to find an answer to that question. Indeed, the inmates are running the asylum and the criminals the prisons.

While the author's point was well laid out and made, I do wish her editor would have done some simple math.

Off topic -- but when Ms. Protopapas, who is a very good writer, if not as radical as some of us, gave me permission to reprint any of her articles on our sites, I discovered that she is arguably the foremost expert on Confederate irregular John Singleton Mosby, one of my own favorite rebels.

She has written much about Mosby, including her comment found under this article: https://ironbrigader.com/2010/07/22/joh ... stoughton/


John S. Mosby Captures General Edwin Stoughton
Published July 22, 2010 · Updated August 21, 2018

John S. Mosby was a Virginia lawyer** when the Civil War broke out in 1861. He was a member of a Virginia militia company at the time, and went off to war. His militia company became Company D of the 1st Virginia Cavalry, and Mosby saw some minor action at the First Battle of Bull Run in July of 1861. Mosby eventually was promoted to 1st Lieutenant and regimental adjutant. He disliked the administrative duties of adjutant, and resigned the post in 1862. He then joined the staff of General J.E.B. Stuart, who commanded the Confederate Cavalry for the Army of Northern Virginia. In January of 1863, Mosby received permission from Stuart to organize a guerilla unit to operate in northern Virginia. This was the beginning of what would be officially known as the 43rd Battalion of Virginia Cavalry, but would be better known as Mosby’s Rangers.

Mosby conducted successful guerilla operations against the Union Army for the rest of the war. One of the more famous adventures of Mosby’s Rangers is the story of the capture of General Edwin Stoughton.

The Union’s Twenty Second Army Corps consisted of troops engaged in the defenses of Washington, DC. Brigadier General Edwin H. Stoughton was in command of the 2nd Brigade of Major General Silas Casey’s Division of the Twenty Second Corps. The brigade, consisting of five Vermont infantry regiments, was deployed at outposts in the Centerville-Fairfax, Virginia area, and Stoughton had his headquarters at Fairfax (known at that time as Fairfax Court house). Also in the area was a cavalry brigade under the command of Colonel Percy Wyndham. Wyndham frequently gave chase to Mosby’s Rangers but had little success against them.

Mosby’s independent command had only been operating for a few weeks by the late winter of 1863, but he was already making a name for himself. He began to formulate a bold plan. Through prisoner interrogations and information from a deserter from the 5th New York Cavalry, Mosby learned the locations and strength of the Union outposts in the area, and where the weak points in the lines were. His plan, as he put it, was to “penetrate the outer lines, and go right up to their headquarters and carry off the general commanding and Colonel Wyndham.”

It was a bold plan. Mosby was counting on that very attribute as the key to success. “The safety of the enterprise lay in its novelty; nothing of the kind had been done before” he wrote years later.

On the night of March 8th, 1863, with a light rain falling, Mosby and 29 men put the plan into motion. The first step was to pass between the Union encampments at Centerville and Chantilly, VA, without being spotted by Colonel Wyndham’s cavalry. The Union Army deserter from the 5th New York Cavalry knew where there was a break in the picket lines between the two towns, and brought the Rangers through safely without being seen. The first part of the plan was a success; the Union outer defensive perimeter had been breached.

The Rangers proceeded towards Fairfax Court House. Mosby wanted to reach the town by midnight to have sufficient time to complete the mission and return by daybreak. To avoid Union cavalry patrols on the road, the Rangers took to the woods a few miles outside of town, and entered Fairfax without incident.

Mosby’s men went into action. Guards on duty were taken by surprise and captured. The telegraph operator was seized, and the telegraph wires were cut. A group went to Colonel Wyndham’s quarters, but he had gone to Washington that evening. Others went to the stables and gathered horses. Mosby took five or six men and went to General Stoughton’s quarters, and knocked on the door.

A window on a floor above opened and the opener asked who was there. Mosby answered “Fifth New York Cavalry with a dispatch for General Stoughton”. A staff officer opened the door. “I took hold of his nightshirt, whispered my name is his ear and told him to take me to General Stoughton’s room” Mosby recalled. The officer had little choice, and complied.

General Stoughton was sleeping soundly when the raiding party entered his room. “There was no time for ceremony, so I drew up the bedclothes, pulled up the general’s shirt, and gave him a spank on his bare back, and told him to get up” Mosby recalled. Stoughton asked what was going on. Mosby told him he was a prisoner and to get dressed quickly. He then asked the general if he had ever heard of “Mosby”. Stoughton said yes. “I am Mosby” the Confederate commander replied.

With Stoughton captured, the raiders prepared to leave. No shots were fired during the raid, and no alarm had been raised, a stroke of luck for the Confederates as they were in the midst of several thousand Union soldiers. But they still had to get back to the Confederate lines. The Rangers had deceived the Federals into believing that a much larger Confederate force had swept into town, but as the raiders and their prisoners left town, the actual size of Mosby’s force became known, and prisoners outnumbered their captors. Many prisoners melted into the woods and escaped on the road out of town.

The raiding party made its way back, passing close by Federal picket lines, but escaping detection. With the telegraph lines cut at Fairfax, no one outside the town knew of the raid, and all the Rangers made it safely back to Confederate lines. In addition to General Stoughton, there were two other officers and 30 enlisted men brought back as prisoners, along with 58 horses.

General Stoughton was later freed in a prisoner exchange, but due to the humiliating circumstances of his capture, his military career was over. John S. Mosby had pulled off a daring, brilliantly executed raid, meeting the objectives of the mission (except for not being able to capture the absent Wyndham), and suffering no casualties. He was a hero in the south. Mosby continued to be a thorn in the side of the Union Army through the rest of the war. At the end, he simply disbanded the Rangers rather than surrender. He eventually went back to practicing law, became a friend to Ulysses S. Grant, joined the Republican party (to the dismay of many southerners) and held several U.S. Government jobs. He also wrote about his exploits during the war. John S. Mosby died in Washington, D.C. on May 30th, 1916...

** The Virginia town where Mosby practiced law is Abingdon, 18 miles from our Laurel Bloomery, TN, NA National Office

I sent Valarie a photo of the mixed media portrait I'd painted 25 years or so ago that still hangs in my first wife's bedroom.

Valerie likes it, so I told her she can use it if she wants. It's obvious that the photo in the article was my source photo.

OK, back on the topic of liberalism, a disease of the brain.
