For a stark vision of what cultural liberalism has come to, consider the breakdown of the universities, the fortresses of the 1960s cultural liberals and their progeny. Students are taught that objective judgments are impossible. All knowledge is compromised by issues of power and bias. Therefore, there is no way to come to judgment about anything, since judgment itself rests on quicksand. This principle, however, is suspended when the United States and western culture are discussed, because the West is essentially evil and guilty of endless crimes. Better to declare a vague transnational identity and admiration for the United Nations.Churchill would not be the least but surprising to me if not for the long list of "bonus" atrocities like outright incitement to violence caught on tape, bogus claims to minority status, and blatant copyright theft of artwork.
But now that I think of it I'm amazed this isn't more pervasive.
For I believe that large parts of our university system have become the replacement for our now-dismantled mental hospitals.
That Karl Rove is one smart dude I tell you...
