Paul Gottfried and John Derbyshire on the future of American conservatism

Joseph Cotto writes in 2014: What impact has political correctness had on the modern conservative movement?

“Poisonous,” Derbyshire states. “It has been the Cultural Marxists’ most brilliant strategy — a judo move, making key conservative virtues work against conservative group interests.

“Conservatives are nice people, well-mannered and well-socialized. They hate to think they are giving offense; they hate to think that people see them as not-nice.

“To escape the trap, conservatives need to be meaner. That goes against the grain, though.

“Conservatism needs more sociopaths.”
