My point is that George Orwell ( " 1984 " ) got it right decades ago . Often in his journalism he pointed how the FREE SPEECH and FREE THOUGHT ideals -nurtured by Western Civilization for all its flaws - were being attacked on the Left and on the Right .
With open hostility to religion, to all people of FAITH , how can these " socialist" sects ever grow into a real MASS MOVEMENT ? Most people on the planet do not subscribe to the hateful New Atheism.
Presently, the " liberal " Democrats seem nastier than the generic Right . I don't see any budding FASCIST movement in the United States.
The mainstream news media in the United States is openly biased against the Republican Party , against cultural conservatism in general. Are daily smears any substitute for progressive or rational IDEAS ?
And yet what is " progressive " about the HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism ? What is so " progressive " about palpable hostility to Christianity , especially to the 2000 year old Catholic faith ?
