      You could not be further from the truth. Universities indoctrinate. They have been for decades. Your statement is flawed logic when you claim "University is supposed to teach you to think independently"... NO. YOU are supposed to teach yourself to think independently. NO GROUP can teach you to think independently because you would then be learning how the University wants you to think. Unless you can elaborate... classes on Critical thinking can be self taught... I like to reference H.L. Mencken: "The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all; it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed a standard citizenry, to put down dissent and originality."

Also, with affirmative action which is based on skin color and not meritocracy an employee with white skin can be passed over for promotion solely for the reason that another employee has skin color that will make management more 'diverse'.

    Many people assume they're "left" because the left has done a good job of branding itself as "kind" and "caring", and branding the right as "greedy".
    So, people look at themselves and say, "I'm not greedy. I'm kind and caring. I must be on the left." They start from this premise and build on it, sometimes for years and years. Over time it comes to be a lens through which they comprehend virtually everything.
    I'm stunned at how many people tell me, "I thought you were politically left. I mean, you're so nice."
    This branding effort by the left has been very effective, but it is an utter falsehood. The deepest differences between the left and right have to do with certain profound principles. Probably the two biggest are Individual vs. group identity; and equality of opportunity vs. equality of outcome.
    People on the right are just as good, kind, nice, friendly, honest, etc., as people on the left. And they care just as much about big issues like poverty and the environment.
    The difference is in HOW those issues should be addressed. Of course, the left doesn't want people to understand this. It serves their purposes to paint the right as greedy and mean spirited.

It seems that anyone who wants to fight for freedom of speech or has a different opinion from the mainstream narrative on things such as gun control or immigration is categorized as an alt-right extremist. I don't know where I stand either in this crazy world, but things are only getting worse and we absolutely must fight back by speaking the truth. You're not alone!

When you can't even simplify the pain-in-the-ass expense report procedure, you realize something like switching to sustainable energy won't be as simple as putting people who are passionate about that goal into the highest levels of government. Any work towards that goal is going to have to be incremental.

      I think maybe that's also why a lot of artists and writers remain socialists their whole lives. They work relatively independently and are to some extent insulated from the breathtaking complexity of any moderate to large size organization.
      I'm still a leftist though, and think the change is really just a rejection of radicalism generally. You don't see 40 year-olds joining far-right organizations at anywhere near the rate of teenagers either. The problem is, when you go from radical left to a more pragmatic stance, in comparison to much of your peer group you've moved to the right.As i understand it, peoples actual positions on real-world political questions (like gay marriage or union rights) don't actually change all that much as they age.

    I learned I wasn't a leftist 20 years ago, when I was 20 years old and working at my first real job. I mentioned to a Union coworker that I had *listened* to a conservative talk radio episode. A single episode. I was curious about viewpoints that I had never heard before. I asked him if he had ever thought about the topics. The result was my co-worker going into a red faced froth spitting tirade. He literally screamed in my face that not only was I an embarrassment to my "race" but that my parents were utter failures. In his words- all Hispanics must vote and think 100% Democrat or they are race traitors. This from a lily-white guy telling me how I was allowed to think and allowed to live. This didn't turn out to be a single one-off interaction but a very typical one as timed passed.
    I'm sorry you had to go through the ordeal you've been through but there is no better teacher in life than going through these kinds of trials. They left claims they care about discrimination and yet to meet this goal they enforce horrific discrimination. They claim to love freedom of expression, yet they must censor people to "protect" people from the wrong kind of expression. Every time careful examination into their causes is looked into you will find the truth isn't so simple as their stated reasons.

There just happened to be a brief period after the Civil Rights Act got passed, by the right, that the left went hardcore on the *rhetoric* of Liberalism, all the while pushing the same authoritarian legislation and blaming it on the right.

Also, if you think liberals are authoritarians that indoctrinate people, move to the south or midwest where schools constantly have religious speakers come in and spout garbage to kids. Some of these are the same states that have the highest rates of welfare and teen pregnancies because of religiously motivated abstinence only education.

    • @gortimustidditus

      I never said I doubt there's religious indoctrination in the midwest still, because it was a rampant problem in the 80's and 90's (and even earlier). What I do know is that there's leftist ideologies being indoctrinated in universities being exposed more and more. Just because it's happening from one "side" in some places, doesn't mean it's not happening from the other. I'm not an "ex lefty," I've essentially been told that I'm "right wing" by people like you who don't think I'm left enough. I still consider myself left- but the left is moving way too far to one side to a point where it's toxic and authoritarian, and I want no part of that. it's not liberal anymore.

      neo-Marxism. The idea that 'victim' groups should take and be given political power simply for their perceived victimization, and thus able to dictate to other groups without censure because they are 'victims'. Facts and individualism don't matter, only group identity and perceived victimization does. The ideology then leads the victim group to seek 'reparations' from the dominant group to one degree or another. We're seeing this in action in South Africa right now, with murders of white farmers and government confiscation of property of white people in an act of 'reparation' for past actions. Oddly enough, farmers were some of the first victims in Russia's Communist revolution, too.

Now no one cares, because the word has been watered down so much that he could have said "I don't like mexican food." and be called racist.
      It was fun watching them fail with bigot tho. They were upset to learn that you could be a bigot, even if you think the other person is wrong and you are right. Wrong and right have nothing to do with it. They try to hedge, and say biased instead of bigoted lol.

    Keep uncovering that nuance Lindsay. Being betrayed by the group you identified with can leave you with a lot of justifiable anger.

    • @AlexSmith-gr4hp

      TheBurningFront Lets just assume the entire "all, not all, I didn't mean all I meant most, why are you generalising? your side ALWAYS generalises, we're not ALL generalisers, I found an exception so you're wrong, blah blah blah" debate has been had. I get what she's talking about. I get why she no longer wants to associate with a label that now represents in, her opinion, things she stands against. Regarding nuance, I hope she continues to debate and think through issues rather than simply inherit opinions from ideologies.

    • @theburningfront7271

    • @AlexSmith-gr4hp
      @AlexSmith-gr4hp 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      TheBurningFront I get your point to and it always has some truth to it. I just think it's often a distraction in debate and a tool used for diversion. Lots of people like to think of their group as a collection of individuals and their opposition as an amorphous whole. Something said but not liked in your own group? That's just an individual opinion and doesn't represent the group. Something said but not liked in the opposition? Why, that represents the whole group. Slapping a label on Lindsay as alt-right? Yeah, we can do that because that's the opposition. Isn't that hypocrisy? Well, you can't generalise like that and say our side did it. It was just some individuals.
      In truth if somebody starts generalising about the label you associate with and it really doesn't represent your views you should be examining if the generalisation is widely held and accurate. If it is then perhaps it's time to drop the label or put a modifier on i.

      I'd go as far to say that anyone with a decent intellect and moral compass can't be far left or far right.
      When I was a kid I was more right due to me appealing to authority (family). Then in my teens I was more left.
      Now I try to be bipartisan. I dont care about the labels. Left and right in my opinion can both be taken as evil the further down the spectrum one goes.
      Normally a functioning society tries to find the compromise, the balance.
      Now it's about divisiveness and identity politics with the vast majority of the Wests politicians being demagogues.
      I'm starting to think we need to move away from a 2 party system to a 2 party + mediator group system. We need a group that can keep the worlds piss poor politicians on track debating the morality of their left or right view point instead shouting the loudest using their base.

      Dave Rubin is an ideologue who weakly pretends to be neutral, inviting on predominantly conservative/right-leaning guests so he can do effectively nothing to challenge their positions and later bloviate about how 'the left hates free speech'. He started out an impressionable moderate liberal/leftist and now he's an intellectually dishonest right-sympathizing pundit.

      "Moderate" is an incomplete descriptor. It usually means moderately confused socialist, of either the national- or international-socialist persuasion. There is no book documenting the great accomplishments of moderately confused people. If tyrants try to outlaw eating meat, "moderates" will push to make the law apply to only weekdays. American constitutional conservatives will, on the other hand, simply assert the fact that eating a meat or vegetable diet is a basic human right-not some privilege to be controlled by presumptuous tyrants.
      There is no virtue in being moderately confused about the basics of Western civilization. "Moderates" are the Left's useful idiots who usually cannot tell the difference between a right versus a privilege and are therefore easily duped into having their rights reduced to mere privileges by socialists.

    I am similar. I am an atheist, a vegetarian, am pro-gay-marriage (and heterosexual marriage!), treat random members of different races the same, think that the climate is changing and on the aggregate getting warmer and this is due mostly to human influences, I am for protecting the environment... BUT... I am not a leftist. I can't stand SJWs. I can understand that Sharia-loving Islamists are worse than Conservative American Christians. I don't think it is up to the West to let in everyone who wants to come, particularly people who subscribe to ideologies that are antithetical to the West. I understand statistics and while I treat random people of different races equally, I understand average IQs, murder rates, and various other things are not equal. I think that men and women are equal, but I believe that gender/sex is real...XX and XY (and some variants). Also, while they should be treated equally, just as with races, averages vary, with men having higher rates of murder and women being weaker on average...and mental traits also vary in aggregate. I support a nation's right to limit border crossings if it so chooses. I support the freedom of speech. And this is key...because in this day and age, you only see one side protesting against free speech, and it is the left. And it is this kind of behavior that I can never condone.

      As you know your words fall on deaf ears on the left, or worse. By your words, you have committed sacrilege, and you are presumed to be an apostate. Under Sharia law this crime is punishable by death. Ask your Leftists acquaintances (the ones who haven't heard of your offense yet) their opinion of Islamic law. The Left doesn't just defend Islamic Law, they actively protect it. Look at the EU, particularly Sweden, to see Leftism's active alliance with Sharia Law. The individual is silenced, powerless and irrelevant, the opposite of Liberalism. Leftism and Liberalism in most way are opposites.

We need open mindedness, however we need to do what’s best for our Country and what we hold as Canadians. I never thought i would see what we are seeing with the current Liberal government, and it is very sad and scary. I was ho-hum about the Cons over their 10 year tenancy, however it is now evident that we were on the right track. Congratulations on your realization, keep honest to yourself and values.
