A number of readers have turned out to be excellent research
assistants. In response to my articles, “The American Left: RIP,” and the two
follow-ups, “The Absurdities Mount” and “Goodbye Western Civilization,” readers
have supplied the following.
A white
male professor of philosophy has discovered that in order to have an academic
career in these days he must find “white privilege” everywhere. Professor John
Caputo, according to this report, https://downtrend.com/robertgehl/professor-calls-reason-itself-a-white-male-construct,
has found white male privilege in reason itself.
Reason,
says Professor Caputo, “is a white male Euro-Christian construction.” Since
reason is white, reason is not neutral. It implies that what is not white is
not rational. “So white is philosophically relevant and needs to be philosophically
critiqued.”
Professor
Caputo ties into University of California professor Sara Giordano who defines
science as a “colonial and racialized form of power” that “must be replaced
with an anti-science, antiracist, feminist approach to knowledge production.” https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=10021
I can’t
say that this would be all bad. This way we wouldn’t have nuclear weapons and
the frustrating digital age. But before I vote for it, I want to know what
feminist science is. I have a disturbing feeling that it brings with it the
genocide of the white heterosexual male. After all, if white heterosexual males
are responsible for all the evil and ills of the world, how can we tolerate their
existence?
The
University of Oregon’s Jewish president was prevented by students from giving
an university address this month about free speech. Free speech, declared the
student protesters, perpetuates “fascism and white supremacy.” http://ijr.com/the-declaration/2017/10/1004087-protesters-block-speech-college-president-supporting-free-speech/?utm_campaign=Conservative%20Daily&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=57696223&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_lEYnedyjzkJdQg3N0OOoF5PhhKtm5yUGqIhbxb5fs878ae8aYjTk2wdWuWYc-7oq7BaJJbOQ6kJI-21n_qpeRECaKqA&_hsmi=57696223
Journalists
seem to agree with the Oregon students. The European Federation of Journalists
is leading a “Media against Hate” campaign against hate speech and stereotyping
of illegal immigrants. https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/11214/europe-journalists-free-speech In
other words, any European who protests his/her country being overrun by foreign
invaders must be shut up. The scenario in The Camp of the Saints is now happening before
our eyes.
A British
university has blocked a professor’s study of those who regret their
transgender operation because it is politically incorrect and could damage the
university’s reputation.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4916026/University-bars-non-PC-study-transgender-operations.html The
study, the university said, would be “transphobic.”
Police in
England looking for the suspects who in a fist fight between feminist and
transgender activists beat up a 60 year old woman refuse to assign a gender to
the suspects for which they are searching, as it would be politically
incorrect. “We have to be very careful,” said the Scotland Yard
spokesman. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5019051/Police-appeal-transgender-activists-beat-feminist.html
White
males have no political correctness protection. The University of Cambridge can
freely advertise university appointments and specify “females only” need apply.http://www.newn.cam.ac.uk/research/research-fellowships/ Can
you imagine a university appointment advertisement that says it is for males
only?
Now even
Halloween is under attack. A Massachusetts elementary school has banned
Halloween for not being “inclusive enough.” Instead the school will let the
kids celebrate “black and orange day.” http://www.dailywire.com/news/22422/school-cancels-halloween-not-inclusive-enough-paul-bois#
If you
permit your daughter a Halloween costume such as Disney’s Moana, you are
encouraging your daughter’s “white privilege.” If you allow her to costume as
Cinderella, you are reinforcing sexism.http://www.dailywire.com/news/22666/sorry-cosmopolitan-dressing-moana-halloween-isnt-emily-zanotti
Now we
have the transgendered in kindergarten. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/aug/23/california-parents-feel-betrayed-transgender-revea/
Do you
think a country as screwed up and divided as the United States is capable of
standing up to Russia, China, and Iran? If not, what insanity is causing
Washington to provoke these capable, determined and united countries?
Considering
the economic, political, and cultural demise of the United States, how much
longer do you think there will be a liveable life here?
The
failure of America, indeed of Western civilization, seems to be total. How much
longer can it last?
A
reader’s comment on Universities: “Universities have become a place of UN-learning, where you
unlearn culture, unlearn values like free speech, unlearn science and math,
unlearn truth and thinking, unlearn objective truths like differences between
males and females, etc. It seems the only thing taught now is hate, and you pay
exorbitant sums of money to learn to hate.”
Addition
to the list:
Identity
Politics Is Now Assaulting the French Language
The
French Academy serves as custodian of the French language. The academy says
that the gender-neutral pronouns of “inclusive language” are a deadly danger to
the French language.

William
& Mary Students Shout Down ACLU “Fascist”
At one
time the College of William & Mary was a quality educational institution.
Today the student body seems to be a collection of ignorant thugs.
