Society Unlocks New Achievement

While we were all stuck in our homes due to the government lockdown of society across most of the world, cancel culture was lying in wait. If you haven't been paying attention to what's been happening around you, specifically after the BLM riots and protests, anyone who doesn't agree with this political ideology or who doesn't follow suit is subject to cancellation. Anyone who for any reason does not bend the knee to identity politics and this Neo-Marxist thinking is to be tarred and feathered as an enemy of progress, a racist, the far right, or worst of all, a trump supporter.

If this reminds you of the Spanish Inquisition or some kind of cult, which dictates how people must think, speak and act, that exactly what this is. When anyone or any group demands that everyone adopts a stipulated doctrine of belief and thinking, and then also does everything possible to destroy those who do not covert, we have a problem.

"Racism is not dead, but it is on life support, kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as “racists." - Thomas Sowell

Thing is, history always tends to repeat itself, so when we look back into the past to when this kind of orthodoxy was demanded and push down upon people, terrible atrocities would always follow. Think of the persecution of Christians during Roman times, the Spanish Inquisition, slavery across the ages where every nation and race was enslaved. This kind of thought policing and indoctrination occurred in the last 100 years, through communism, socialism and fascism. Did we somehow forget the consequences of taking this course of action?
