>We are living in the age of insanity.
Yes, we are.
I think the current condition is pretty-much a direct result of our society embracing relativism & skepticism.
In particular, as a society, we have rejected the absolutism of logic — The Law of Non-Contradiction, which says “no statement may be simultaneously be True and False,” has led to the Orwellian embedding of doublethink AND the sort of “castrated-ness” that prevents you from ACTING on what you believe*.
*For example, having read my State’s Constitution which states “no law shall abridge the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms for security and defense” I may reject the state-law which prohibits firearms on university grounds [or public school grounds, or state/county/municipal buildings including courthouses] as being of no effect under the State Constitution; however, if I take my gun with me on campus I will be harassed and disparaged and charged... and there is the sadly very possible outcome that any such argument would be rejected out of hand by the jury because of a] the emotional appeal, and b] the “we don’t have to consider the [superior law of the] state constitution because you show arrogance/hubris/insubordination by not submitting to this law.”
The Communists won the war against HCUA. That's what it all breaks down to.
We observed the Communists who served here on behalf of foreign powers. We were afraid to lock them up for treason. Even when they conspired to riot in the streets and kill law enforcers and rob banks.
Clinton pardoned members of the Weather Underground.
The pro-revolution media has worked hard to attain their positions of power. Same with the Red academics who have indoctrinated generations of kids (Howard Zinn anyone?).
