As The Gates of Vienna remind us, the left already has a Secular Ten Commandments.

“Georgia Guidestones”
1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely — improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion — faith — tradition — and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth — beauty — love — seeking harmony with the infinite.
10. Be not a cancer on the earth — Leave room for nature — Leave room for nature.
Now #3 goes completely against what happened at the Tower of Babel. The rest sounds like Gaia worship.
Interesting.
#1 requires killing all awful lot of people to get to the goal. Some entity would presumably have to implement the plan.
#2 presumably requires an authority to make these decisions. That’s called eugenics, and it doesn’t have a nice record.
#3 requires (in practice) an authority to force people into use of this language. If there’s one thing history shows, it’s that peoples don’t give up their native language without a fight.
#4 is just pablum. No real meaning.
#5 is also pablum. Nobody would disagree, except on the definitions of “fair” and “just,” on which they would disagree vehemently.
#6 does not address what happens when a nation violates any of these principles internally. If it can do so and get away with it, they they’re all meaningless.
#7 I can get behind, but it’s essentially meaningless without definitions of “petty” and “useless.”
#8 I can agree with, but as always it depends on the definitions.
#9 is more glittering generalities.
As is #10. Who decides at what point a person or nation has become a “cancer on the earth,” and what is done about it?
