Has Social Justice Become A Religious Cult?

If we honestly take a long hard look at the effects of what has evolved from this social justice ideology, also know as intersectionality, nothing good has come from it. At the fundamental core of social justice is the eradication of individual justice, which is what justice is by definition, the fair and equal treatment, equality. The idea of social justice advocates for justice for a minority group, which then would override justice for the individual, and as Ayn Rand famously said, "The smallest minority on earth is the individual."

If we look at social justice advocates you'll find they show a almost religious-like intolerance for those with whom they disagree, calling for censorship and defending violence as a response to speech. We have seemingly average people now calling everyone they disagree with Nazi's and fascists, and wishing death on anyone who has a different opinion. The irony is that these reactions to opposition is the text book definitions of what actual fascism is.


"The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities." - Ayn Rand

The most scary part about all this is, these folks believe that they are morally superior to everyone they disagree with, and therefore completely just to label them as the worst possible evil, basically dehumanizing anyone not part of their thought group. When you have this kind of mind set, you can justify almost any act to opposed these people. When you label people who for example voted for Trump as Nazi's, there is no justification needed other than the accusation alone. Therefore any course of action against people under this label including violence is morally justified.

Under this standard of reasoning you can just label. someone and commit violence against them, why not just take them out side and shoot them? Who here in this story are the actual authoritarian fascist Nazi's?


"Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual)." - Ayn Rand

My favorite part is that Natalie Portman Padme Star Wars quote about how democracy, or in our case, the republic, dies, in thunderous applause and terms are weaponized against objective truth in order to promote division, deception, destruction. Upvoted. Resteemed.
