What has developed is a very weak and marginalized thought process within people who claim they are college-educated, but their thinking or political beliefs are so weakly entrenched....that they can’t afford to listen to anyone opposing them. In essence, they can’t defend their position.

This triggers people into becoming snowflake-like and acting like 12-year-old kids.

Slave, peasant, what is the difference? The whole social justice concept is that people of exceptional ability must degrade themselves so that those less able feel better about themselves. Total mistake. It denies those of lesser ability the pride in their actual achievements just because they are not stellar.

The fact of the matter is that without this type of insanity, people of lower ability are still fully capable of managing their own lives with pride and dignity. The whole socialist concept assumes they cannot and degrades them even more than it degrades the exceptional.

That is the intent, to subordinate everyone to the self-proclaimed “elite”. Unfortunately, the most capable people that I have known are actually very humble and respectful of others. They are truly elite, and they do not look down on people of lesser ability. They are more likely to really appreciate and admire the accomplishments of people who have more challenges.

Think about it. Who is more heroic, the brave warrior who saves a fellow, or the average person who rises above his ability and circumstances to save another from harm. Exceptional people recognize this and admire the hell out of it.

The pseudo-elites however have utter contempt for the brilliant and the average because they live only on jealousy and greed and assume that everyone is as inherently degraded as they are.

The social justice warriors are truly the least among us and should never be put in positions of leadership. They can only lead others downward.

Isn’t that what Nietzsche said about Christianity?

George Orwell’s Road to “Wiggan Pier” is better.

The PC crowd doesn’t love or care for the poor and oppressed, they just hate everybody that isn’t. It’s not the same thing.

Here’s some more ponderings for you; what political has the longest history of slavery inaction, all the while claiming the opposite. As well as being the Party to foster PC on US all?

If the US Constitution was adhered to in spirit as well as the letter, political correctness would barely be a concept in American culture.

So would out of control government taxation and spending.

And so would senseless and endless wars and foreign entanglements.

That’s the simplest and best explanation of the difference between the outlook of conservatives and liberals I’ve seen. Thanks for the post.
