Above all, liberalism is a hubristic faith. Its followers share the fatal flaw of pride in their own intellectual capacity. This is why liberalism appeals so strongly to those in the knowledge trades: teachers, journalists, writers, psychologists, and social workers.

  The sense of "knowing more than others" is its strongest attraction – particularly to the young, who otherwise know so little.

  Liberalism confers, or seems to confer, almost immediate power and authority to those who embrace it.

What's often not well understood is the fact that violence and repression are inevitable because liberalism seeks to change what does not wish to change – and it does so not for the purpose of making things better, but as an attempt to confirm the superiority of the liberal mind and its ability to manage society.
