The following excerpts are from an article written by a retired Catholic professor of philosophy and sociology:
Sometime between the 18th and 19th centuries a new type of human being appeared in Europe. Not a biologically new type. No, a new psychological type. Let’s call this type
homo utopianus.
For a few centuries, Christianity had been fading away in Europe. The Protestant Reformation combined with the Catholic Counter-Reformation – far from (immediately) undermining Christianity – had produced a great religious revival, a great intensification of Western Europe’s traditional religion.
As I see things,
homo utopianustype flourishes in the United States today, in both varieties, would-be tyrants and sentimental fools. Together they make up the great “progressive” movement, a movement that has had during the last half-century, and is still having today, tremendous success in promoting an ideological package containing the following ideas:
- Anti-Christianity
- Sexual freedom
- Abortion
- Homosexuality and “marriage equality”
- Transgenderism
- The sexualization of children
- Recreational drugs
- Euthanasia
- Standards of intellect, morality, manners, beauty, etc. are forms of oppression
- Anti-Americanism
- The USA is an incorrigibly racist society
- American whites are racist almost by nature
- All group inequalities are the result of race discrimination
- Police forces should be eliminated or at least defunded
- Prisons should be emptied (except for the prison holding Donald Trump)
- Disapproval of Israel and of American Jews who support Israel
- Totally open borders; invite the Third World to move to the USA, thereby diminishing the percentage of whites in the population.
All these ideas are promoted by our would-be tyrants and, after a certain lapse of time, they are also embraced by sentimental fools.
God help us.
