The sad future of the democratic party

[DLJ]

PC means: Be authoritarian.  Be a jerk.  Take away my freedoms.  Be the end of civilisation as we know it.



It's all about perspective.

Right...  I've said this before.  You have every right to behave in any manner that you like.  If your goal is to exercise your freedom of being a complete dirtbag, knock yourself out.   Who is stopping you?

Nobody.  Is someone physically keeping you from being a terrible waste of skin?  If so, we'll [send] the police over right away.

You just don't like being called out.  If being called out is keeping you from doing something, I would grow a pair and try again.

Who, indeed, is stopping you (stopping one) and how are they going about it?  That is the crux.

Social and economic pressures to discriminate against discrimination are always the most effective incentives.  

The other two governance techniques for organisational or cultural change are 'policy' and what's colloquially known as 'jumping through hoops'.

It's the 'policy' form of cultural change that seems to be glued onto the Dems which is what many voters deemed objectionable i.e. mandated speech.  The recent case in Canadia highlights it best.

If I'm allowed to quote myself from another forum regarding what happened to the Clinton-Dems,

My take is that the strongest Darwinian driver - survival (staying in power) - used another Darwinian driver - reciprocity (donations) - to create a force that co-opted yet another Darwinian driver - kin selection (identity politics) - that developed an immune system to protect itself from attack [by Bernie Sanders].

In other words, the SJW agenda was the rationale used by the supporting players to see no evil... i.e the evil of the plutocratic main players (pay-to-players).

And because this organism evolved slowly starting in the 70s/80s with Reagan's/Thatcher's democratisation of the shareholder system, those inside the cell membrane (the bubble) couldn't see it happening. Which is why no one is taking responsibility for it.

With the result that many voters rejected the whole shebang and rationalised their instinct (fear of being controlled / losing their right to self-determination) with anti-PC rhetoric.
