In a recent speech at Oxford University, renowned thinker and writer Peter Hitchens lamented that conservativism is dead in Western society, that the left has succeeded in conducting a Marxist revolution that began 60 years ago, and that most of us didn’t notice it happen.
Observing the public reaction to unproven allegations of sexual abuse crimes against women of late, I’m becoming more and more convinced Hitchens is right.
The money shot:
Everything seems the same on the outside, as Peter Hitchens noted, but underneath a rot has set in. The Salem witch-hunt logic of Australia’s so-called intelligentsia class is a very disturbing, and currently highly visible, sign.
