The Democrats often quite successfully propagandize Americans into thinking of them as the party that cares, the compassionate party, the party of love and tolerance. In actuality, of course, their policies are horribly destruction and deadly, but a passage from the great Russian novel The Brothers Karamazov can enlighten us on just how such lying propaganda works.
“The more I love humanity in general,” observed a character in Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novel, “the less I love man in particular.” C.S. Lewis made a similar comment in The Screwtape Letters, noting that some men can really believe themselves virtuous and loving toward humanity while egregiously abusing the individuals around them. This is the disease of the self-righteous Democrat. It is a virtue and “love” of mere words, totally at variance with a person’s actions. That is what makes it dangerous, for there is nothing worse than a virulently hateful hypocrite who believes himself kind and noble—and yet nothing more tempting than an ideology that promises self-righteousness without any real sacrifice or effort. It is in direct opposition to the virtue commanded of us in the Bible.
