LAZINESS, THE FINAL ACT OF DEFIANCE

THIS QUOTE I FOUND online reminds me of an old acquaintance, actually an adversarial but devoted peer who once touted this childish philosophy of the Left with great gusto and resolve. This fellow, whom I have grown to respect in relation to his own spirited struggles, is only somewhat reformed, but has shown he is much more lenient towards reality than I witnessed in those thunderous 1990s which were just plain dreadful, so out of gratitude I'll spare him the disturbance of mentioning his name...

I think I've heard someone else mention this term in this context, but from now on I'm going to use a new name for the European dhimmi-elites: "Eloi", the post-human race from the HG Wells story, The Time Machine. They didn't work, they didn't fight, they didn't build, and they didn't believe in anything but their own immediate, lazy pleasure. They really only had one problem—they were food for the underground-dwelling Morlocks.

This "Right To Laziness" has always been fraught with danger as Wells points out, but my friend and others still voice the dream.
