Those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it;
Those who fail to learn history correctly-- are simply doomed.

We can thank primarily the political left and its useful idiots for the persistent, unyielding, and willful celebration of--and ultimately mainstreaming of--malignant narcissism. We have entered the age of postmodern sociopathy and nihilism. Welcome to the ObamaNation. Where inconvenient truths are simply re-packaged by the mainstream media and the executive branch of government to reflect the new reality.
What does it matter if the lives and freedoms of so many individuals are sacrificed to the murderous oppressors of the world? If you "kick out the wealthy" then you have the wonderful socialist paradise such as Cuba; or the magnificent utopia that is North Korea with all their misery, poverty, oppression and leftist enlightenment! We will all watch with wonder and awe as France implements the ultimate redistributionist fantasy of a 75% tax on the "wealthy". Is there anyone who can possibly believe that this will solve France's financial problems? Believe me, the next phase will be the demands for a 100% tax on those evil rich people who cause all the worlds problems with their wealth.
Under the "enlightened" and "progressive" left, wealth will be redistributed until there is nothing left to redistribute; at which point the human mind will be completely enslaved and even more scapegoats will be deivered to the altars of progressivism--but so what? As the eminent leftist and quintessential nihilist Joseph Stalin once remarked, "Death solves all problems - no man, no problem."
In every redistribution scheme there are those who are spared. (all pigs are equal but some are more equal than others.) They are the Party Faithful, the Party Elite, who need to be accorded special privileges. Nobody sees Barack Obama, David Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel or Joe Biden giving all they have to feed the poor. These redistributionists are not Ghandi.
These selfless sociopaths are people who couldn't care less about the individual human being. Individual human beings are expendable; even vast numbers of them--as long as they stand in the way of the implementation of the sociopath's great ideas and compassionate execution of those ideas. They are the fodder that can be used to build "great" societies, utopian fantasies and collectivist wet-dreams.

Stalin said that? I don't like to speak ill of the dead, but in his case, he was pretty awful. The world is well rid of that man.
As for those like him who believe in murder and theft as political tools, they should take a really close look at the Ten Commandments.
"Selfless sociopaths?" Works for me.
Personally, I liked "malignant narcissism".
The tidal wave of socialism defeat is brewing and the result will send a message to those who want to re-introduce marxism after this defeat to forget about it. America rejects resoundingly and thoroughly.
