And we wonder why no one bats an eye when the IRS targets groups opposing the ruling class and the FCC wants to regulate the news.

I don't think we should be tolerating [George's] conservative views because that dominant culture embeds these deep inequalities in our society."

She's too blind to realize that racist totalitarian leftism is now the dominant culture that embeds deep inequalities and state slavery in our society.

In what modern sense is America a politically conservative society?

I remember back when students were a little suspicious of government,,, these new ones are little tools. Reminds me of Hitler youth, or 9 year old Khmer Rouge.

the mistake is their arrogant assumption that conservative views are wrong. What garbage.

Are our time horizons now so short that 2005 information is “dated”? The disease of liberalism, for which too many credit the fight against slavery/civil rights to, won’t be cured outside of two generations.

It was conservative Christians that fought against slavery and for civil rights.

Somewhere along the way colleges abandoned the concept of freedom of speech in favor of political correctness. On college campuses the American ideal of “I may disagree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it” (Voltaire), is now “if you say something I disagree with I hate you and want to destroy you”. College has become an incubator of political intolerance and anti-Americanism.

"What really bothered me is, the whole idea is that at a liberal arts college, we need to be hearing a diversity of opinion," "I don't think we should be tolerating [George's] conservative views because that dominant culture embeds these deep inequalities in our society."

“Diversity” Means:

No ‘white faces’.
No male genitalia.
Leftist agendas ONLY.
Same-sex relations a PLUS.

As I read this article I’m struck by it’s title, and how it illustrates how wrong it is to call these people ‘liberal.’ There is absolutely nothing liberal about the modern American left. I wish conservatives understood the power of words and language as well as leftists do.

As Oscar Wilde remarked, "In America the young are always ready to give to those who are older than themselves the full benefits of their inexperience."

sigh...I'm living this quote.

This is not new. It actually goes back to the cultural Marxist and Frankfurt School leader, Herbert Marcuse in his famous work, Repressive Tolerance
Given this situation, I suggested in 'Repressive Tolerance' the practice of discriminating tolerance in an inverse direction, as a means of shifting the balance between Right and Left by restraining the liberty of the Right, thus counteracting the pervasive inequality of freedom (unequal opportunity of access to the means of democratic persuasion) and strengthening the oppressed against the oppressed. Tolerance would be restricted with respect to movements of a demonstrably aggressive or destructive character (destructive of the prospects for peace, justice, and freedom for all). Such discrimination would also be applied to movements opposing the extension of social legislation to the poor, weak, disabled. As against the virulent denunciations that such a policy would do away with the sacred liberalistic principle of equality for 'the other side', I maintain that there are issues where either there is no 'other side' in any more than a formalistic sense, or where 'the other side' is demonstrably 'regressive' and impedes possible improvement of the human condition. To tolerate propaganda for inhumanity vitiates the goals not only of liberalism but of every progressive political philosophy.

If the choice were between genuine democracy and dictatorship, democracy would certainly be preferable. But democracy does not prevail. The radical critics of the existing political process are thus readily denounced as advocating an 'elitism', a dictatorship of intellectuals as an alternative. What we have in fact is government, representative government by a non-intellectual minority of politicians, generals, and businessmen. The record of this 'elite' is not very promising, and political prerogatives for the intelligentsia may not necessarily be worse for the society as a whole.
