Hear, Hear!

David Brooks seems to live in an intellectual equivalent of a cave-
conservative ideals that can’t be stripped away with an election cycle are
gaining more momentum in groups that the “mainstream” culture thought it had
locked down: younger people, and nevermind that “progressive” used to be
proudly associated with counterculture. But now it seems to have switched, and
the same progressives who fought so hard to not be marginalized are now doing
the same to their conservative counterparts. But back to my main point: I’m
not talking the millennial who has no sense of a solid identity, but the age
generation before. We had the best of both worlds- we understood that TIME is
the great mover, not law. More and more people are turning their heads in
disgust at what progessivism is doing to our minds by legislating culture,
dictating what should and shouldn’t be said or heard. Again and again, even
when it comes to gun control, you think it’s a matter of law. Yes, there
should be reform, regulation, and change to prevent these terrible shootings.
But how quickly liberals swing: precious topics to them like mental health go
out the window. The Parkland shooter talked about killing animals. And then he
pulled the trigger. Can liberals talk about two things at once? No. It’s
because liberals have no solid ground on which to stand on. It’s situation by
situation. Progressive policies are looked at as a battle, and while
progressives might be winning some, the war is far from over.
