Every liberal does it too, from center right radlibs to far-right "conservatives": the most extreme right fringe liberals hate the mainstream liberals for not being bigoted enough, the mainstream libs hate the radlibs for not being cruel enough, and the radlibs hate the left for not being chauvinist enough.

Denouncing chauvinism in particular is like a liberal moral event horizon, a cardinal sin against their self-interested belief in the righteousness of the imperial hegemon that keeps the treats flowing at gunpoint.

This should be a site tagline. It really is what all the liberal rage against the left boils down to.

This doesn't make any sense. Liberals don't think leftists have better politics, otherwise they wouldn't be liberals anymore.

This is like saying "The reason leftists hate conservatives is because they hate anyone who has more realistic politics than them". Not really a coherent argument.

I think it is more "They hate the possibility that they could be wrong about things." including their morals and politics.
