Quote:All of these policies originated in Britain, where a callous disregard for the welfare of the people by a self-serving and fascist elite is the hallmark of that inferior society. Welcome to more British Empire.
This really is a most telling statement and reveals much about the inner turmoil LL must suffer from. This is as clear a case of Collective shadow projection as one can imagine.
I have to conclude that LL's projection of his own Collective (American) demon onto the nassy ol' Brit Baggins's compensates for his increasingly obvious power Complex as it puffs and huffs itself ever larger day by day.
There is, naturally, nothing new about political projection and it is something that has been indulged in since time began.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
