Hypocrisies of social justice movements:
- Advocate free thinking and intellectual curiosity, but frequently engage in intellectual dishonesty and censorship when it disagrees w/ their prerogative
- "Freedom of speech for me but not for thee"
- Denounce dehumanization, but commit it frequently when people are "canceled"
- Claim to value the ability of discomfort to help people learn/change, but frequently defame ("cancel") individuals whose arguments make them uncomfortable, regardless of how realistic those arguments might be
- Use character assassination and censorship to have their way, no matter that this directly contradicts their principles of social justice
- Accept little to no criticism, despite criticizing endlessly
- Advocate 'embracing diversity,' but will dismiss/denounce/defame/demonize those who acknowledge differences and who insist that such differences should not be overlooked, and should instead be honored
- Appoint themselves the arbitrary arbiters of right and wrong: judge, jury, and executioner on every issue
They do all of this in the name of social justice
I appreciate what these movements are trying to achieve. But the lack of situational/self-awareness in them is astounding. They are isolating themselves in an echo chamber. They are losing people.
