Secular humanism takes a political form that regularly exploits the personal dissatisfaction that flows from its own broken philosophy. That political form is called liberalism or progressivism – its “arc of history” set always promising better days, delivering worse and profiting from the manufactured villains it wrongly blames. Given liberalism’s elite, self-designated managerial class is on average no more competent than the rest of us, the policy failures are unsurprising. However, the opportunistic blame shifting that follows and its resulting strife are appalling threats to the common good.
Consider that over the last eight years, median family income is down, food stamps up, labor participation down, cost of healthcare up, federal debt doubled, mass shootings up, black poverty/teen unemployment up and black homeownership down. Racism did not increase in the last decade and, thus, is not the wellspring of these problems, yet it frequently gets the blame.
And about diversity, when is there enough? Based on recent Bureau of Labor Standards data, now 4 in 10 households have female breadwinners. Given that women will more frequently choose stay-at-home parenting, can we ask if, in this case, sufficient diversification has been achieved? The liberal mind recoils in horror.
It is particularly non-objective and etymologically imprecise that the progressive liberal either cannot or will not define what constitutes diversity, but unsurprising because the question is a threat.
