Liberals/Leftists in the West who have abandoned traditional Christianity are left with an emptiness in their souls. A lack of meaning and purpose in life. Liberals have substituted politics as their new religion. Having won many civil rights battles, they can't be content where they are. They have to continually look for more battles to give their lives meaning. So they continue to invent new "injustices" for them to battle against.

Additionally, their skewed morality of relativism allows them to pursue causes that are deliberately calculated to combat Christianity. Since they have already rejected Christianity, they now seek to root it out of society. They hate the Christian God who claims that He will hold them accountable fo their deeds, including their illicit sex.

Please add "Daily Mail" to your copyright list. It is extremely frustrating to put in the work of trying to post the entire article, including numerous bold parts and italics, and then get to the preview part and then see that almost everything has to taken out.

Petty deep for the Daily Mail, which I think of as an accurate scandal sheet. With good photos.

A new dogma has turned beliefs that once seemed common sense into hate crimes.

No, it hasn't. Common sense still prevails across most of the Western world - the problem is that it does not prevail among the self-proclaimed "elites" who control establishment politics and Big Media. Because this small minority of loons control most of the means of communication, the false impression that their insanity is shared by everyone else is spread.

Excellent article and spot on. The left never ceases to use whatever it can to destroy morals, and ergo society. Its constant accusations and guilt against anyone and anything that stands in their way of absolute power is the driving force. We are here:“If there are no absolutes by which to judge society, then society is absolute.” Francis Schaeffer, How Shall We Then Live? (Old Tappan NJ: Fleming H Revell Company, 1976), p. 224.

This fashionable consensus redefines success. One faction of the eternally outraged inflicts emotional damage on themselves for endless slights wounding their virtue. They trade away adulthood and dignity for a prestige lacking dreams to pursue or accomplishments to celebrate. The other faction embraces the others every dilution in order to receive effortless addictive compassion as the drug of choice.

This novel moral superiority only requires both parties fabricate a disgust for themselves and for this country. Buttressed by premeditated ignorance, both ideologically possessed factions shelter within a joyous cacophony of mutually supportive orations validating the oppressions of their own making.

I have a Word document titled social justice which I hope to turn into an essay. I'll put the article there.

The SJW BS carries a heavy debt and is unsustainable. It will eventually succumb to its own weight with great humiliation.

Homofascists wage a war against Christianity. They don't seek “equality” gay pride is about supremacy.

Bow in allegiance to their new social order. Hang their good luck rainbow swastika to honor them. Ribbon bullies one and all.

“Today our public life is dense with people desperate to slay imagined dragons.”

Because they don’t know how to mind their own damned business, whether it’s real or imagined.

Leftists/liberals see the world through politics. It is their religion.

Welcone to the Dystopian Society, perfectly laid out in Orwell’s 1984 and Animal Farm. Thank God we elected PDJT. He is the only one who ran that could reverse this tyranny.
Everyone else gets a piece of the destruction profits. This is why they hate DJT. The American people were given this one last chance to save the USA. Let’s soldier on. We can do anything if we’re united. Stay strong. Stay united.

The destruction of Christianity is the core motivation of Democrats.

Very good article, thanks for posting. It seems to be an excerpt from the author’s new book, The Madness of Crowds, which sounds worth reading!

I’m not sure that his conclusion is right, though. He thinks that these constant attacks on the majority or on established concepts will produce a backlash that will then attack the minority groups (gays, for example) that had been attacking the majority (heterosexuals, in this case).

I don’t think this is likely. Totalitarian Marxist collectivism is the world view or narrative that has either infiltrated (as in the case of the Catholic Church) or crushed all other belief systems. It has used these minorities as tools, shock troops or the “vanguards” in its decades of work to reject reality, as the author notes, forcing formerly rational people to say that patently imposible and unreal things are true, such as in the case of “transgenders.” It has already established itself with the full force of the law, and worse still, it gained control of the educational system long ago and now controls the minds of the young. And it is now imposed by virtually all educational, entertainment, literary and political sources as the sole permitted thought.

So I honestly don’t see where this supposed backlash is going to come from or how it’s ever supposed to gain enough strength to be effective, let alone dangerous to the Marxist-anointed “minorities” that have proven to be such effective tools in erasing thousands of years of civilization and thought.

re: “‘St George in retirement’ syndrome. After slaying the dragon, the warrior finds himself stalking the land looking for more glorious fights. Eventually, after tiring himself out in pursuit of ever-smaller dragons, he may eventually be found swinging his sword at thin air, imagining dragons. -—”

The westernized version of the Red Guard. Just give them time, their progress here is slower than it was in China but the parallels are chilling.
