Intolerance in the name of tolerance

The tyranny of correctness.  Currently, we see a reversal within the party of inclusion to a party of intolerance in the name of tolerance.  If you do not agree with me, so they say, you must be racist, sexist, islamophobe, homophobe, or some other -ist or -phobic.  So fantastic are these to be unbelievable. 

Usually, you call others the names you would yourself abhor. So, name-calling has a limited reach.

They have forgotten what made them great.  They have embraced some easy targets while ignoring all but a couple of large groups, assuming their old-time supporters would continue to support.  They have made the fundamental mistake of assuming those in the tank should damn well stay there. Like Pandora’s box, once released, these forces roam independently. How can they put them back in their tank?  Maybe they will offer more promises, which of course translates into more spending. Maybe they will offer more detractors up to the pillory. 

Yet, this same party seems condemned by their own political truths.  They certify, ramify, and exemplify their commitment to their new core principles. Namely, “We are right because we are on the right side of history.”  Such sophomoric reasoning may cause future difficulties.  The self-confessed party of the intellectual, funded by the very wealthy, scripted by the academics, and supported by the poor has lost touch with who they were. 

Tangentially, I would like to comment on globalism, but it is difficult to understand.  It seems to indicate that all countries are equal and should be so treated regardless of other factors such as work, innovation, entrepreneurialism, and even political system.  It seems to be a belief that when all countries are kind of equal, all countries will behave as if in a wondrous global family.  Such ideas are utopian, and utopias do require complete concordance to function.  Concordance of the whole never works without overwhelming authority.  It is effectively a deconstructionism and disestablismentarianism of thought.

 This brings us back full circle to enforced and mandatory behaviorism by all citizens.  Thus so, we have correctness of thought.
