“People don’t really understand how strong ideology can be,” she says. “I think sometimes of that group and that feminism as being close to a cult. I feel I had to de-programme myself in order to have independent thought. It’s been an ongoing struggle. When you have a cult, you have a cult leader who demands a certain conformity . . . And when you have a celebrity who has cultural-icon status, economic power beyond what you can imagine, you can’t resist that person — if you want to stay in their realm. Because once you start challenging them, they kick you out.”

Food for thought.

Question authority. ESPECIALLY question the authority of the socialist radical who seeks to overthrow the dominant cultural values and replace them with “what”? A socialist utopia? How well does that EVER work?

Liberals have a god complex and believe they can “create” a better world. THEY are the ones. THEY must be in charge. And if in the end, 50million babies have been torn apart through abortion, well, their intentions were GOOD.
