It's time for liberals to abandon MSNBC's 'sweet little lies' | Opinion

Frida Ghitis: There's a deep sense of denial among liberals and Democrats that liberal democracy isn’t really dead.

She says there’s also a good deal of magical thinking in this denial, as if the criminals who shot their beloved will come to justice.

Ghitis says MSNBC and others outlets are ready to capitalize on that impulse, and they know their audience wants to be told sweet little lies.

Kamala Harris campaigned on a message of “we’re not going back.” But we are. The country is going back to a time in American history in which democracy was illiberal but sometimes tyrannical.

And there will likely be a new consensus in which it’s agreed: the ingroup's rights trump the outgroups’ freedom.

It prefers fun and sweet little lies to the difficulty of political combat.
