Authoritarianism: At the Core

Filed under: FrontPage — by Will Kirkland @ 9:36 am

Scarecrow, over at FireDogLake, picks up the Authoritarian theme we posted with Glen Greenwald’s piece the other day. He adds notes from Brzezinski’s Op-Ed piece, which we’ve also commented on, and ties it into a Digby analysis: after we notice the thugs at the top we have to ask the supporters of the column on which they are perched — Republican David Iglesias, now fired, among them — What were you thinking?

What’s Left of the Republican Party?

In Dante’s Hell those guilty of the sin of cupidity are in the ninth circle, frozen in the Lake of Ice. Having cared for nothing but self in life, they are encased in icy Self for eternity. By making people focus only on oneself in this way, Satan and his followers turn their eyes away from the harmony of love that unites all creatures.
