The main problem of the liberals

“I start with James Madison, who was as committed as either Locke or Smith to the supremacy of individual liberty but was acutely aware of the inherent tension between liberty and democracy. Madison recognized that “the people” can be as tyrannical as a monarch. It is not enough, he wrote in Federalist 51, “to guard the society against the oppression of the rulers”; it is equally necessary “to guard one part of the society against the oppression of the other part.” What we now call a “liberal democracy” is a state where majoritarianism is tempered by a respect for individual rights as well as the rights of political or ethnic minorities. The clear implication is that while liberal values like diversity, unlimited personal autonomy and secularism are universal, conservative values are a kind of pathology.”

This is the root of the problem. Unlimited personal autonomy leads to atomization of society. Everything that binds us as moral human beings, as a nation, as Christians, as members of community and family gets destroyed.  This atomization saps away our power allowing super rich to exploit us and to accumulate riches rarely seen in human history. This why super rich are paying for intensive liberal propaganda that is boring and does not work any more.
