[QUOTE="stevevw, post: 77431921, member: 342064"] Under the current ideology it is the Left that is intiating much of this. We were OK for millenia based on the long and hard fought truths the West lived by like freedom of speech and belief and democracy. The gradual eroding of this came through academia with ideas based on Critical theories that then infiltrated institutions and now into mainstream society. Much of the Rights response and reaction at times is in defence of those hard fought truth that the Left is undermining with progressive ideology. I think you will find that most on the Right are quite happy to have a discussion on these issues laying all the cards on the table as they tend to want the truth to be found. But its the Left more generally and especially the more dominant position where it counts don't want debate but rather want to shut down opposing views like they already know they hold the truth which points more to ideological belief that truth or facts of the matter. That inevitably ends up leading to reactionary outcomes on both sides. You can't begin to change and live together if one side doesn't even want to talk about the issues. [/QUOTE]
