Lee Siegel, "The Paranoid Style In Progressive Politics"

Thank the gods for City Journal.

I say Siegel's right on target with this.

If I added something, it would be a few lines on each of the following:  (a) the medicalization of everything, and (b) the hermeneutics of suspicion. (re: the latter: Nietzsche's typically thrown in as one of the suspicionists. But, as I write all the time: imagine the huge, smoking crater that would remain of the progressive left were he around today...)
