YES, NO, BUT, WHAT THE!

Marx goes PoMo via his nefarious acolytes never ending quest to destroy the most successful civilisation our flawed human world has ever achieved, primarily because it did so on the 'wings' of the Judeo-Christian worldview:
"The beginnings of identity politics can be traced to 1973, the year the first volume of Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s Gulag Archipelago—a book that demolished any pretense of communism’s moral authority—was published in the West. The ideological challenge of socialism was fading, its fighting spirit dwindling. This presented a challenge for the Left: how to carry on the fight against capitalism when its major ideological alternative was no longer viable?
The Left found its answer in an identity politics that grew out of anti-colonialism. Marx’s class struggle was reformulated into an ethno-racial struggle—a ceaseless competition between colonizer and colonized, victimizer and victim, oppressor and oppressed. Instead of presenting collectivism and central planning as the gateway to the realization of genuine freedom, the new multiculturalist Left turned to unmasking the supposed power relations that subordinated minorities and exploited third world nations.
..........The original battleground was the American university, where, as Bruce Bawer writes in The Victims’ Revolution: The Rise of Identity Politics and the Closing of the Liberal Mind,
The point [became] simply to “prove”—repetitively, endlessly—certain facile, reductive, and invariably left-wing points about the nature of power and oppression. In this new version of the humanities, all of Western civilization is not analyzed through the use of reason or judged according to aesthetic standards that have been developed over centuries; rather, it is viewed through prisms of race, class, and gender, and is hailed or condemned in accordance with certain political checklists.  "[M Conttinetti]
Western civilisation is a mess, even at its loftiest point it was riddled with weaknesses, betrayal, dishonour, corruption and every failure known to mankind(sin?), but like Churchill's take on Democracy it was infinitely preferable to its alternatives:
"...indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.…"
It appears that our erstwhile younger folk egged on by the globalist elite and desacrilized Hollywood sybarites and 're-educated' by neo-Marxist neophyte totalitarians with a penchant for allowing  children to direct the 'learning' (via critical theory from the Frankfurt school) resulted in cohorts of  graduates with a notable inability to think, reason research and/or comprehend consequences, we now end up with a voting population ripe for conquest.

As I have said before and will repeat ad nauseum; when they get what they think they want they are not going to like what they actually get....if history is anything to go by and unlike the bulk of educationalists today I believe history is an accurate indicator for the future.
