A rather forthright young lady at Harvard Law mistakenly thought the school was serious about its motto: Veritas. She calmly and dispassionately explained her views on racial differences, genetics, and various related social problems. She used no epithets or coarse language. A member of the Black Law Students Association, and similar associations at other elite law schools, responded by literally trying to ruin her life, in part, by trying to get her federal judicial clerkship yanked.
This is utterly monstrous behavior by weak, thin-skinned, anti-intellectual, and evil people, whose feelings and belief structure is so incredibly fragile because it’s built on the very falsehoods which this young lady dared to challenge. But oh how the school and its professors and its students congratulate themselves on their intellectual daring and cutting-edge beliefs. Cutting edge 50 years ago perhaps. Liberalism is now the official religion of elite America, it takes no courage to embrace, and anyone that dares to deviate from its premises on equality, race, nature versus nurture, and much else is responded to not with sound argument and evidence but Soviet-style attempts to ruin one’s life and livelihood.

Let’s just go where we’re heading and make it formally illegal to bring up genetic differences in intelligence and behavior. If that’s what people want give it to them.
Some people want it, some don’t. Real Americans don’t. This fait accompli and responsibility shifting language of “people” ignores the dimensions of society, including who is an anti-American parasite and who is not.
That’s not necessarily what I’m saying. I think it’s useless to directly argue with the elite class and its boosters who insist their brand of liberalism is moral, logical, uncontestable, and ultimately what everyone wants. Instead of trying to convince logically let’s just take their word for it and apply their program as fully as possible.
But it is worth noting that “the people” who allegedly don’t want it always–always!–return to the subject of their faith in liberalism and egalitarian fairness.
What I just wrote is a pretty breezy statement but there’s something there.
