Quote notes (#77)
John Robb on the “the Neutron Bomb of Moral Warfare” (via @heresiologist):
The growing popularity of “check your privilege” and “white privilege” at Universities and in political debates is interesting. […] It’s not a force for progress or positive change, it’s a form of moral warfare. […] “Privilege” as a form of attack is going to generate an aggressive, non-violent counter response from those on the right, in the not too distant future. A response that will only serve to increase divisions and make the possibility of any meaningful debate impossible.
For the Outer Right, this outcome would, of course, be highly desirable.
