Self loathing

In other words you have no counter argument. You are a classic example of the type of individual he describes.

I do, I just can't be bothered at the moment as its a public holiday tomorrow, Tag der Arbeit * (although you wouldn't understand that) preceded by Tanz in den Mai (# Walpurgisnacht), I can't be arsed

* International Workers' Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
# Walpurgisnacht

"A conservative is a man who just sits and thinks, mostly sits."
 
What's worse then... narcissism or self-loathing?

Aaranovitch argues that it is not self loathing, but loathing of others. I don't see it like this I think it is split into two.

1. about people who are super competitive deeply insecure envious self destructive and cowardly
2. about people who are guilty about their wealth and want to be seen as virtuous by sticking up for the "little guy" (read "condescending") Brian May and Bono are two prime examples.
 
And so I am beginning to think it is with some people in the West who seem determined to take anyone’s side but that of their own country or government or way of life. It isn’t themselves they despise. It’s us. Themselves they adore.

David Aaranovitch is not far right. His point sums up a number of individuals on here. I suggest you read it.

That's not leftist though. I think you mean whinestrone
