Jonah Goldberg Love Quotations

One of the overriding points of Liberal Fascism is that all of the totalitarian "isms" of the left commit the fallacy of the category error. They all want the state to be something it cannot be. They passionately believe the government can love you, that the state can be your God or your church or your tribe or your parent or your village or all of these things at once. Conservatives occasionally make this mistake, libertarians never do, liberals almost always do.

The government cannot love you, and any politics that works on a different assumption is destined for no good.

I have a simple answer to any American patriot who claims there is no conflict between his/her love of country and his/her desire to hitch our fate to the United Nations: 'You're mistaken.'
