- Advocate free thinking and intellectual curiosity, but frequently engage in intellectual dishonesty and censorship when it disagrees w/ their prerogative
- "Freedom of speech for me but not for thee"
- Denounce dehumanization, but commit it frequently when people are "canceled"
- Claim to value the ability of discomfort to help people learn/change, but frequently defame ("cancel") individuals whose arguments make them uncomfortable, regardless of how realistic those arguments might be
- Use character assassination and censorship to have their way, no matter that this directly contradicts their principles of social justice
- Accept little to no criticism, despite criticizing endlessly
- Advocate 'embracing diversity,' but will dismiss/denounce/defame/demonize those who acknowledge differences and who insist that such differences should not be overlooked, and should instead be honored
- Appoint themselves the arbitrary arbiters of right and wrong: judge, jury, and executioner on every issue
They do all of this in the name of social justice
I appreciate what these movements are trying to achieve. But the lack of situational/self-awareness in them is astounding. They are isolating themselves in an echo chamber. They are losing people.
no offense but your struggle is valid no matter how many people have it worse than you
"If I did something good, I didn't do it correctly.
If I did something brave, I did it for the wrong reasons.
If I stood up for myself, they said I was throwing a tantrum"

Me, after reading Kindred by Octavia Butler:
"It's ridiculous to say, 'I don't care what anyone says about me,' because that's not possible. But you can decide whose opinions matter more and whose opinions you put more weight on"
