the radicalism of the past is easier for libs to swallow. history’s only purpose for them is to justify the status quo. john brown is good because he was part of the process that brought us this far. he needn’t push us any further.
“During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it.”
White people being 10 degrees left of centre in matters of history, and 90 degrees to the right in events that are currently taking place. Scratch a liberal and all that.

Is there one?

I think it fits.
Nice thanks!
