Genius
Thanks to Hot Air for the link to A Lefty Lexicon; the author was suspended following objections from leftists, proving the author’s point (though you can’t expect a leftist to ever be able to understand that). Read the whole thing, because the introduction is hilariously on point, but here are a few of my favorites (the author is British, in case you wonder why the mixed punctuation with quotation marks is backwards):
Child-centred - education: “we can’t be bothered to teach them… perhaps they’ll do it themselves”.
Critique - media, academia: same as ‘rebuttal’. When a Lefty alleges that someone’s writing is ‘riddled with factual inaccuracies’ then mysteriously fails to identify any.
Disproportionate - foreign affairs: Describes any act by USA or Israel.
Diversity - creating a workforce based on how people look rather than on their skills or aptitude
Egalitarian - “if I can’t have one, then neither can youâ€. Shared misery much better than unevenly scattered joy.
Fascism/Nazism - apparently the ‘opposite’ of Socialism - despite sharing party members, ideology and - in National Socialism - the name.
Hate-speech - “shut up!”.
Inclusive - Means ‘drop entry standards until anyone can get in’.
Impartial - media, BBC: the balance achieved by attacking the Opposition for being Conservative and attacking the Government for being insufficiently Lefty.
Intolerance - Intolerance can only committed against certain defined groups of people. These do not include, Americans, the middle class, white manual workers, rural people, business and Christians obviously.
Islamophobic - anyone who objects to having their transport blown up on the way to work.
Legitimate grievances - foreign affairs: why we’re all to blame for deranged Islamists murdering people in the developed world.
Multi-cultural - All culture is valid - unless Western in some way. Usually to be ‘celebrated’ and always found to be ‘vibrant’. See ‘diversity’.
Palestinians - archetype ‘victims’ no matter how many teenagers they murder in bars and fast food outlets. Never responsible for anything they do – or done in their name - because of ‘root causes’ or ‘legitimate grievances’.
Progressive - describes ideas generally thought up around 40 years ago – that still don’t work.
South Africa - a national showcase for Lefty policies with a one-party state, some of the worst crime levels in the world, tragic AIDS mortality and declining economy.
Unilateral - media, BBC: used to describe any act by the United States in furtherance of its national interest.

When I cried, was it because I was laughing so hard or because it was all true?
