SciFi writer Sarah Hoyt has an article on it HERE including the talking points of that "religion" that is still believed among those in cloud cukooland aka PC academia
She writes: from an ESR post which you should definitely read in its entirety:and then MsHoyt goes on to explain why she is immune to the mindset.
- There is no truth, only competing agendas.
- All Western (and especially American) claims to moral superiority over Communism/Fascism/Islam are vitiated by the West’s history of racism and colonialism.
- There are no objective standards by which we may judge one culture to be better than another. Anyone who claims that there are such standards is an evil oppressor.
- The prosperity of the West is built on ruthless exploitation of the Third World; therefore Westerners actually deserve to be impoverished and miserable.
- Crime is the fault of society, not the individual criminal. Poor criminals are entitled to what they take. Submitting to criminal predation is more virtuous than resisting it.
- The poor are victims. Criminals are victims. And only victims are virtuous. Therefore only the poor and criminals are virtuous. (Rich people can borrow some virtue by identifying with poor people and criminals.)
- For a virtuous person, violence and war are never justified. It is always better to be a victim than to fight, or even to defend oneself. But ‘oppressed’ people are allowed to use violence anyway; they are merely reflecting the evil of their oppressors.
- When confronted with terror, the only moral course for a Westerner is to apologize for past sins, understand the terrorist’s point of view, and make concessions.
heh. Sounds familiar. MsHoyt grew up in Portugal, not in the elite bubble. Nothing like some time in the trenches to know these talking points are nonsense. I mean, I read Chomsky and was impressed, until I compared his ideas to reality, at which point I figured he had never actually visited the places he discusses.
The left in the US continue these ideas in their talking points.
They will celebrate the fall of the Berlin wall, but ignore that it was Reagan, Thatcher and John Paul the Great who actually nurtured the movements that did it PEACEFULLY.
My only comment on Furguson is that so many groups so quickly got organized that I suspect they had been given their marching orders (to get out the black vote for the midterm elections) that they were already prepared: if it wasn't the Brown shooting, it would be another one.
Too bad the forensic evidence backs the cop's story. everyone can watch CSI and NCI and Bones, and can evaluate the forensic evidence on their own.
