The Left has been eating itself since the Russian Revolution (or even, arguably, since the French one.)
And yet it persists.
So I don’t glean as much hope or meaning from evidence of cannibalism as others do.
But, yes: It is damn entertaining to witness…
Anyhow, here’s David Cole, citing a few examples from — he emphasizes — the last few weeks alone:
Left-wing looneybird Ta-Nehisi Coates found himself embroiled in a very public feud with left-wing loonierbird Cornel West after West attacked Coates for being too narrowly focused in his fight against “white supremacy.” Specifically, West pummeled Coates for not speaking up about Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians, an issue that, as we all know, is of the greatest importance to inner-city American blacks. At its core, this was a fight between two leftist blacks over who is blacker, and whether blacks should fight white supremacy from within the system, as Coates does as a shill for the Democrat Party, or from “the streets,” which West defines as his oak-paneled office at Harvard.
