Who is this Dort? I don’t know but we must judge Dort from the fruit of the Dort tree, which now includes such disparate characters as Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, Jeff Sessions, Michele Bachmann, Sarah Sanders and Steven Mnuchin. Let us judge. They are united by a love of injustice.
Dort defines life as something taking place in a realm of arbitrary authority and superiority. Life is therefore unintelligible. Some people are BORN better than others. Nothing else matters, so their behaviors are irrelevant. They can be the biggest piece of shit ever and it doesn’t matter.
In fact, injustice is reassuring to Dorters—an indication of the hand of God in human affairs. Striving for justice is just another futile effort and example of human folly. Injustice, therefore, is akin to holiness or at least a sign thereof. Justice is for the next world. To seek it here is heresy.
They all believe in an invisible hand ordering the affairs of men—either God’s or that of the capital markets. Oh, those must be the same thing. They have their capitalist God. This is Calvinism for you.
