But,David, they don't go (expletive deleted) they go (expletive) little boys.
Chapin is fine as far as he goes but the real reason we shouldn't "join" in this game is that it's an updated variant of leftist collective guilt. In the
words of Glen Wishard's Canis Iratus classic December 2004 post:
The common theme is politics as a theology of salvation with a heroic transformation of the human condition (nothing less) promised to those who will agitate for it.
Political activity becomes the highest human vocation. The various socialisms are only the most prominent manifestation of this delusion, which our future historian calls "politicism." in all its forms it defines human beings as exclusively political animals, based on characteristics which are beyond human control: ethnicity nationality, gender and social class. It claims universal relevance and so divides the entire human race into heroes and enemies. To be on the correct side of this equation is considered full moral justification in and of itself while no courtesy or concession can be afforded to those on the other. Therefore politicism has no conscience whatsoever, no charity, and no mercy emphasis in original.
One might add no justice either.

So is the universal assumption before when, 1970? that one's ancestors deeds could not convict one. (And vice versa; the author of "Grandfather Tales" whose name I cannot recall, visited Harriet Tubman while a child and she curtly informed him "you can't get to Heaven on your grandfather's coattails." The quote is approximate) to be continued, cycjec
