I think there's a massive problem with the way the 'left/liberals' and the rest of the political elite see the world. Put simply, they have all embraced simplistic morality which is wrapped in emotional sentimentality. This is kitsch politics. It's both extremey stupid, and very, very, dangerous at the same time. Feelings rule, okay! Owen Jones' prose drips with truly ghastly mix of self-righteous and moral grandstanding. He's actually proud that he's got such moral high standards in a harsh world full of bad peope and bad countries that insist on doing so many bad things, because; because they are bad and immoral people, compared to good people like Owen Jones and his ilk! This kind of thinking is seen by media types as both dramatic and entertaining. It's a sickness.
