The right to choose how to think

When French President Francois Mitterrand described Margaret Thatcher as having “the eyes of Caligula and the mouth of Marilyn Monroe,” he encapsulated a dichotomy asserted by 1980s lefties that the British prime minister, although manifestly a woman, didn’t think like one.

Four decades later, just weeks before the 2020 elections, “plus ça change.” The Left clings to the bizarre and insulting notion that people don’t think for themselves but adopt the views of their caste.
