This is a comment I received in an FB group on my post A Generation of Sensitive Radicals.

Thanks, great stuff. It’s more than protecting freedom of speech, it’s about holding on to a rational civic discourse… if mainstream culture is downstream from universities then we have only the reign of irrational tyrannies to look forward to. But tyrannies that are themselves, so fragile, that they are defenceless against more robust and coherent rivals such as Islam or Chinese communism (Or Russian imperialism if it got itself more organised). We are there already although I see a fight back as the Israeli conflict is exposing the dangers in our midst. There is also the self contradiction in wokeism (Islam v lgbt, trans v feminism and gay, environmentalism v the poor).

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
