Don’t want to make this a “ POP CULTURE!!” moment, but in the book American Psycho, Patrick Bateman would often just go on long tangents about needing to help homeless people, ending world hunger, combating communism, ending the AIDS epidemic, and closing income inequality. Of course, he’s also a serial killer, and he just says those things because it’s what a Good Person is supposed to say.
What I’m trying to say is that liberals like Obama likely believe things they’re saying, but they don’t take any moments to reflect on their words and action. There’s no contradiction. There is no irony. There is no regret. There’s nothing there.
It might be even more applicable to Obama. Shinzo Abe complained that he tried to befriend Obama, but all he does is talk about work. Every waking moment has something to do about politics. It’s never good when your whole personality is one thing, and that one thing also involves murdering a bunch of people.
