The left appealed to liberalism in order to take control of culture and politics. Free speech, free exchange of ideas, decide for yourself, etc. But now that they’re in control, they flipped on liberalism and. I longer permit freedom of ideas, speech, and rational empiricism. 1/
Some people think the way to fight the new left is by appealing to liberalism again. “Let’s just get back to public debate, open dialogue, feee speech, tolerance of differences. Let the best ideas win.” This is James Lindsay’s approach and many others. But it won’t work. 2/
The left openly says they will brook no liberalist opposition to their hegemony. Empiricism is white supremacy. Dialogue is male oppression. Reason was invented to subjugate nonwhites. As was capitalism, economic liberalism. So, no, more liberalism isn’t the answer to leftism. 3/
What is the answer? If I knew that I’d be leading some movement right now. I’ll talk about historic examples l, and their failures, another time. Fin/
But the appeal to liberalism is now weakness. It’s seen as a safe neutral position. “I’m not for pr against the regime. I’m just putting my idea out there and letting people choose.” But this is what the left doesnt allow. It’s not enough to not be racist. One must be anti-racist
It’s not enough to be liberal. One must be actively anti-fascist.
Liberalism won’t save you. It won’t hide you. You can’t appeal to it to win culture or regain your nation.
