The Liberal Dilemma

Liberalism or leftism as an ideology (modern liberalism, of course, not classical) has become so confused and full of inner condtradiction, that it's almost an oxymoron to say "liberal ideology".

This is, clearly, the result of ongoing pandering to special interest groups, while simultaniously lifting "equality" up as its highest value. Also contributing to its parodoxical political stances, are its voodoo like central economic tenants: marxsim and keynesianism.  

To be sure, this would likely happen to any idiology that engages in continued, long term pandering. Eventually, you reach out to groups whose ideas are diametrically opposed to one another. It just so happens that the Left has the most camps under its tent. 

I call this hilarious situation, the Liberal Dilemma.
