How suicidal liberalism survives

A poster at Lucianne.com wrote:

I still, for the life of me, don’t understand why the Libs in the US are so dead set against fighting this war … If the Enemy wins, their way of life and power is down the toilet along with our way of life. Don’t these idiots get it? (I answered my own question, didn’t I??)

To which I replied:

Liberalism moves always in the direction of collective suicide; but liberals don’t literally want to commit suicide, they want to live. So they depend for the continuation of society and of their own way of life on the very “conservatives” whom they are always vilifying. Liberals are not just parasites, they are parasites who demonize their host.

And the worst part of it is, the “conservatives” let them get away with it, so the game can continue forever.
