Pessimists at large

This comment by Melanie Phillip's perfectly sums up the 'debate' between the political left and right...i.e. there can be no debate!
"...the left is governed by the Manichean belief that everything not the left is the right; that the left is the embodiment of virtue; and that the right is therefore irredeemably evil."
 
The unfortunate reality of this position is that 'debate' or difference can now only be overcome by power, and the horrible historical reality behind that is; that as soon as power passes from the strangle-hold of the luvvies they go on a rampage and given the perfect storm of negatives, war ensues.

I hope and pray I am wrong but even a cursory review of human history will support such a theory.
