And when you see rage at the idea of honoring the successful, climaxing in death threats, you are witnessing the ressentiment of those who secretly regard themselves as failures, whatever their outward success, and are desperately struggling to bury the knowledge that they themselves are responsible for their fate. Hatred for the achievers is the outward projection of their own self-loathing. More and more, you can see this rage breaking through, out there on the Left. *** The Angry Left can’t be appeased, because its denizens don’t want anything: they are nihilistic. They are not pro-Arab, they are anti-America. They are not pro-poor, they are anti-rich. They are not pro-equality, they are anti-excellence. They are not pro-charity, they are anti-achievement. The only thing they are “pro” is state power–the power to bring down the achievers who stand as a reproach, a painful contrast to their own inner emptiness.
