If I had studied literature or, perhaps, philosophy, my dissertation would have been safely research on the aesthetic value of texts reactionary. The sheer audacity to defend indefensible positions, based on census suffrage, dictatorship, absolute monarchy, integration of church and state, inequality, or whatever-has some romantic, rebellious and even provocative. In this regard, reactionaries are often about artists.
On the other hand, my impression is that the word 'liberal' or left rarely have a sense of humor, with the honorable exception of Marx and some followers.
Take for example the following paragraph from ' Chilean church and political debate ' by Jaime Guzmán:
Wonderful, right?

Our thesis is that the current pro-Marxist position of Catholicism called "progressive" or "Christian left "is the simple logical deduction of its postulates, taken by the mechanics of the facts to their ultimate consequences. The naive, and with them the idiots of all kinds and levels, have been grossly deceived, and are the only ones surprised to find plausible explanation. Things went further than they have thought and desired, but the blame for that, rather than the impenetrability of the events and their projections into the future, it is necessary to look at the sharp limitation of certain minds, who today remains only as a last resort, the goofy grin of embarrassment.
Wonderful, right?
