The most worrying thing I've learned about in the last few weeks is the Frankfurt School. It's been a cancer in our society since the 60s and it's now taking over. I have never been able to understand why Governments and Big Business bother to take any notice of the Twitter Mafia? They are a tiny minority of even Twitter users.
Yeah,yeah,yeah......just like they said they where going to leave the us of a when trump was elected.....all hot air windbags
I'm an atheist Blono as you probably know. I used to get slagged because I was Presbyterian growing up in Ireland and when in England slagged because they thought I was Catholic from Southern Ireland. The whole thing just put me off the subject. Sorry for going off your point a bit.
Shaks it’s not religion in a biblical sense (although that in itself is a load of bollocks) it’s wokeism being seen as a form of religion (which is an even bigger load of bollocks) WOKEISM – THE NEW RELIGION OF THE WEST Wokeism is a religion. Although it has not been organized into any formal religious structure, it has all the functions of religious doctrine. It has a unique epistemology (theory of knowledge), an evaluation of the human condition, and a redemption narrative. But from where did it come? CRITICAL THEORY In the early 20th century, a German school of philosophy called the Frankfurt School developed a social philosophy called Critical Theory. In a nutshell, Critical Theory critiques culture and challenges the underlying power structures of society. It is a movement to “liberate human beings from the circumstances that enslave them,”reinterpreting western culture as a story of the oppressor vs. oppressed. In Critical Theory, the only things that exist are hierarchies of power, and those hierarchies must be torn down. The goal of this movement, whether stated or not, is nothing less than the complete dismantling and rebuilding of western culture from the ground up. Critical Theory started to become prominent among western academics in the 90s and eventually infiltrated almost every university in the western world. In recent years, the ideology has left the university and has made the jump to media and corporate culture, establishing itself as the primary moral culture within western societies. Currently, the main lines of separation between oppressors and oppressed are race, sex and gender identity. This is not just a political or social movement within the framework of traditional enlightenment values. Concepts such as logic, science, and reason are viewed as tools of the oppressive white patriarchy. Values like individualism, hard work, punctuality and delayed gratification would be understood as perpetuating white supremacy. Critical Theory has become much more than a social philosophy and is the primary philosophical driving force behind the new civil religion of wokeism.
Shako, to be an Athiest as there to be a god not to believe in? Just asking for a mate It's a load of bollocks if you ask me.
Good point smart arse, but it was just easier to use one word instead of saying I don't believe in a GOD....
