Social Justice Warriors Are Ruining the Left.

It is really strange. When I joined Google+, I thought I would be writing about liberal ideas. Now, for those skimming through my posts, they might mistake me for a far-right conservative. I haven't changed that much, but I have been getting more and more fed up with what a very large percentage of "liberals" appear to be in this day and age.

This group is often referred to as "Social Justice Warriors" (SJWs) and "regressive leftists". They are a group who will fight for almost any group that is a minority in the West (no matter if the group is conservative to the point of fascism). About the only minorities they won't fight for (and actively harass) are the minorities within the minorities...such as black conservatives (= Uncle Toms), Middle Eastern critics of Islam, etc. The SJWs are an extremely hypocritical bunch, and while far-right conservatives definitely represent a grave threat, this brand of liberal is no less dangerous, as they support the conservatives, racists, and sexists of any group that isn't white and male, and seek to undermine their own societies by destroying the freedom of speech and the notion that we should show civilized behavior even when we disagree with others.

I watch Dave Rubin (https://www.youtube.com/user/RubinReport) and have gone through a similar process of thinking to arrive at very similar conclusions. Regressives are destroying the left. Look at this video, where they illegally shut down free speech (without anyone doing anything to stop them). Now, even if you agreed with their points, do you think that was helpful? Probably 100 people would have seen that Milo Yiannopoulos talk without this. Now, probably tens of thousands more have seen Milo due to this travesty showing up on the internet...with most videos (rightly) supporting the conservatives. The conservatives are very clearly the victims here...so if the SJWs were going for a different victim narrative, they have failed.

If you say, "Sex and race are only social constructs and have no basis in science, and we must judge each other as individuals...and by the way, white men are evil.", you may just be a Social Justice Warrior. If you turn a blind eye to sex slavery in the Middle East, but worry about the way men sit, you may just be a Social Justice Warrior. If you make excuses for terrorists who kill civilians, and then fight against their execution because "killing is always wrong", then you may just be a Social Justice Warrior. And for my part, I will have none of it. The left is edging near the cliff, to be murdered from within. The liberal suicide, coinciding with the suicide of our societies, will not help anyone. Soon - if not already - the sanest voice left will be that of conservatives. And if you are a true liberal, you probably don't want that. It's happening, though...like it or not. So it is time to either fight against regressive leftists or give up on liberalism altogether.

In Defense of...Cecil Rhodes?!

You all know Cecil Rhodes, right? He was a British Imperialist (living from 1853-1902) who founded the De Beers diamond mining and trading company. Just this morning, I came upon a post comparing him to Adolf Hitler, and claiming that Cecil Rhodes killed at least 60 million Africans. It has been shared 99 times. Here is the post: https://plus.google.com/+TonyJefferson/posts/CZ6HW3AxDo6 Unlike many, I decided to do some research on it. That is my nature. I don't accept things without evidence given, and even when no evidence is provided, I search for evidence. If after looking, no evidence is forthcoming, then I discount the claim unless compelling evidence does surface. After my research on this topic (taking up about an hour of my day and 28 open tabs on my browser...but still an enjoyable time because this is what I like to do), I found that my initial skepticism was well justified and that this comparison is incorrect. Adolph Hitler and Cecil Rhodes cannot be compare

Inconvenient History – The Barbary Slave Trade

Once upon a time, slavers ravaged the coastal towns of the European continent. Eventually, the response to that would include clear proof that the United States is not founded on a religion. Soon thereafter, European imperialism would become the driving force for the abolition of slavery around the world. Continue reading to learn more. The Barbary Slave Trade is a relatively small part of the Arab Slave Trade, which itself is only one part of the Islamic Slave Trade (which besides Arab slavers, includes Turks enslaving Europeans and Africans, Muslim invaders of India and Sub-Saharan Africa, Malay enslavers of local minorities, and other Islamic slavers). For example, the Arab Slave Trade may have enslaved up to 18 million people over its span (not including those born enslaved), while the Barbary Slave Trade enslaved some number over 1 million. Bear in mind that this number is three times the number of enslaved people (roughly 388 thousand) sent to the area of the United Sta

The Sixth Great Mass Extinction and Human Survival

Recently, there have been numerous articles about a study showing that we are in the midst of the Earth's sixth great mass extinction. Below are some quotes, and then I will give my thoughts. "Miami (AFP) - The world is embarking on its sixth mass extinction with animals disappearing about 100 times faster than they used to, scientists warned Friday, and humans could be among the first victims." "Not since the age of the dinosaurs ended 66 million years ago has the planet been losing species at this rapid a rate, said a study led by experts at Stanford University, Princeton University and the University of California, Berkeley." "The study "shows without any significant doubt that we are now entering the sixth great mass extinction event," said co-author Paul Ehrlich, a Stanford University professor of biology." http://news.yahoo.com/sixth-mass-extinction-us-study-210749359.html This is sad, although it's not news.
