So,
you believe in science, eh? Excellent, so do I. At the core of this
science-thinking is the acceptance of the fact that there is
reality. Thus, there are a finite number of things which are true and an
infinite number of things which aren’t -- and our beliefs, opinions,
and desires have no impact on this.
All
“science-folks” accept these as rather self-evident truths -- yet many
of these same people also profess to holding liberal views -- even
though modern progressivism is premised on many things which simple
aren’t true -- which contradict reality.
This isn’t a political or philosophical issue but rather a reality issue.
Let start with their insistence on classifying and grouping individuals --
the only real unit of humanity -- based on a handful of traits or
behaviors and acting as though these groups -- their own creation -- are
actually real in some physical sense.
Black,
white, people of color, rich, poor, Hispanic, Latino, Latinx,
conservative, liberal, Republican, Democrat, gay, straight,
Trump-supporters, Trump-haters, left-handed, right-handed -- these
groupings of individuals are almost endless.
They
then “give” these imaginary groups motives, emotions, beliefs, action,
and life. If the creators “like” the group, these all will be framed in a
positive light. If the groups are “bad,” they will be framed in a
negative light.
In effect they act as little gods who have the ability to shape reality. Where they obtained this power is never revealed.
At
is core though, the basis for all these groups is rooted in circular
logic where the only consistent fact for every member is that they are
part of this group. Blacks are black because they are black. Whites are
white because they are white. And on and on it goes.
And
speaking of their seemingly never-ending focus on race -- it too is a
false concept. The science on this is clear, there is no such thing as
human "races" -- black, white, Asian -- all an illusion based on a
failed and disproven scientific theory from hundreds of years ago.
There
are only individuals and they aren’t defined by a handful of visible
physical features or where their most recent ancestors came from. Built
into this sick thinking is a return to the disgusting racist belief that
“it’s in the blood” and even “collective guilt.”
What
is in the blood is never determined -- although if they like you it
will be positive traits, if not it will be negative. It must be nice to
be a god and to have the power to do this.
Their
latest assault on human reality is their strange fascination --
bordering on obsession -- with the mental disorder of gender dysphoria,
or as it is more commonly called, transgenderism. Yet the science on
this is clear: there is no such thing as a transgendered person. They
don’t and can’t exist. This is a mental issue, not a physical one.
This progressive assault on reality -- all while shouting “I believe in science” -- is a wonder to behold.
Conservatives
and libertarians -- let’s end the charade and stop treating these
made-up groups as if they are real. When we do a great deal of liberal
thinking falls apart. Ridding liberalism of their god-like abilities
turns many -- most? -- of their beliefs into the childish rantings of an
immature mind.
Conservatives,
please stop participating in this unseemly game. Let us embrace the
beauty of the individual -- in all of our varied shapes, sizes, colors,
behaviors, and beliefs -- and stop the madness of arguing as though
these various made-up groups are real, living things. They aren’t.
Yes,
I know most conservatives already believe this but until we stop
speaking with liberals as if these groups do exist, we will continue to
lose.
I
truly do “believe in science” and it is far past time to demand all
participants in the debate do the same. Otherwise, we are playing a
fool’s game that is certain to end poorly for us all.
