LEFTIST SUPERIORITY
REVEALS ITSELF ONLINE
My last post featured a number of vile memes about Donald Trump. Some readers were taken aback at the degree of nastiness directed toward the President (not to mention the vulgarity with which it was expressed).
But such is the voice of the Progressive Left, that unique class of humanitarians who fancy themselves wise and clear-seeing — and therefore entitled to dictate how everybody else should think and live.

About 20 years ago I was incubating an idea for what would eventually become two mystery novels (both of which are no longer in print). The books included a couple of characters who had (as it might have been tactfully put at the time) irregular inclinations.
In order to present their motives and reactions authentically, I turned to the Internet in search of psychological insight and analysis. It didn’t take long to discover that there was a lot more than clinical information available.
