"Liberalism and Aggression"

By the blogger @ ShrinkWrapped:

.... For many years, the goal of liberalism has been to minimize the impact of aggression in the world. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this goal but when one's fear of one's own aggression is kept out of awareness, it exacts a terrible price in its drive for expression. Too many liberals have been willing to condemn youngsters to Math illiteracy in order to protect them from competition they might lose. Too many liberals have subverted sports in our schools to avoid having any child win or lose. Too many are willing to appease the violent in the hopes that they won't get mad at us. It all fits a pattern of discomfort with aggression and its overt expression, even in attenuated and sublimated ways (like normal competition) that has come dangerously close to disarming us as a people....
