“Men of Narrow Hearts and Little Minds in High Places”

Source: Eunomia
by Daniel Larison

“It is a fitting description of so many of the political leaders we have had in the last twenty-five years. It is no accident that this has been an era defined by almost constant warfare. War is the ‘solution’ favored by the cruel and stupid. Our men of narrow hearts and little minds in high places resort to the same failed policies year after year, and they produce the same miserable results every time. They hallucinate or fabricate threats, overreact to the imaginary threats, and then needlessly kill a lot of people to ‘solve’ a problem that never existed.” (04/16/26)
