So, so true.  !!!

Political LEFTISTS can afford to ignore the truth, whenever it contradicts LEFTIST/Marxist ideology.

This is because the LEFTIST can demonstrate [to his own psyche] [with his HUMANIST arguments] that his LEFTIST ideology, is more moral than the ideology of those who do not agree with his position/opinion.

/sarc off


HUMANIST arguments = = Politically Correct arguments.



.



Neither contradicting Reason, nor any contradicting truth,       have any place [i.e. cannot be tolerated!] in the 'universe' of the LEFTIST/Marxist ideologue.


ideologue = = a dogmatic or uncompromising adherent of an ideology.

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
- George Orwell            [even if this quote is mis-attributed to Orwell, the pursuit of truth remains a great virtue]


"It is difficult to see how Gandhi's methods could be applied in a country where opponents of the regime disappear in the middle of the night and are never heard of again. Without a free press and the right of assembly, it is impossible not merely to appeal to outside opinion, but to bring a mass movement into being, or even to make your intentions known to your adversary."

"England is perhaps the only great country whose intellectuals are ashamed of their own nationality."

"I consider that willingness to criticize Russia and Stalin is the test of intellectual honesty."

ideology vs. truth


"To admit that an opponent might be both honest and intelligent is felt to be intolerable.
It is more immediately satisfying to shout that he is a fool or a scoundrel, or both, than to find out what he is really like."
- George Orwell


There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance - that principle is contempt prior to investigation.
- Herbert Spencer


"There are two ways to be fooled [deceived].
One way is to believe what is not true.
The other is to refuse to accept what is true."

Speaking to the blind and fundamental [extremist!] error, of those who worship, within the temple of Political Correctness....

"If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error."

On life as a political dissident.....

The insanity generated by blind adherence to political-correctness demands that we protect Muslim hate speech while condemning anyone who dares to criticize it.

Didn't realise you considered religion left wing Yadda.

Makes sense though. The Nazarene was pretty left wing.

Typical of the bat shite crazy right - MAKE CLAIMS ABOUT FACTS BUT NEVER EVER USE ANY.

Lots of words here but no facts to support any of it.

The truth about fact is typically the exact opposite as you clearly demonstrate.

A lot of quotes and a lot if ideological inferences and psychological babble but nothing supporting the title.

There's facts alright

Darkies home invade and they also slash and bash people, sometime killing the victims - that's a fact

Here's another fact, muslims kill people in the streets, and in service stations, and in units

These facts are caused by the power of leftist ideology holding sway over the Lib politicians who are as weak as water, they've fallen into the trap of the lefty progressives, and can't get out

This upsets the balance of the Feast and Famine Variable in their minds. Subconsciously they now think like a lefty progressive while presenting a conservative face to the public talking about the economy, jobs, coal and royal commissions - anything to avoid true conservative issues like law and order and moral conduct. They use cliches and stating the obvious now. These don't displease the lefty progressives because the lefties use them too

So what we have are two lots of people, call them Libs and Labs if you like, who are on the same "globalist" side but anxious to prove they can ignore crime better than the other one can. Ignoring crime is the new normal

The mayor of London said we have to live with muslim killing sprees, meaning, just die when a muslim attacks you and don't complain

There is a thing called the Feast and Famine Variable and it is very important to every human being, every human has one deep in their mind, but it must be balanced, an equal amount of feast to an equal amount of famine. In the human mind the balance varies very little. It's similar to blood pH level, in physical terms, but our blood pH is automatically adjusted, however, if we take too many prescription drugs or other detriments in high quantities, blood pH gets out of whack and illness sets in, possibly death if something isn't done to bring it back in balance

What all this lefty progressive politics has done to the F/F Variable, is throw it so far out of balance, it's become unhealthy for society. Globalist progressive politics is feeding only one side of the Variable, when both sides should be fed in equal amounts. Just as our blood pH needs to be in balance, so should our Feast and Famine Variable

If the lefty progressives tell you they have given society plenty of feast, don't believe them because it doesn't work like that, they are feeding only one side of the Variable in our minds, they have inadvertently hijacked the other side and it will be destroyed if they are allowed to carry on the way they are. We need both sides working in equilibrium to survive as balanced human beings.

This is why I disassociated myself from the two major parties, they are both moving down a path that is contrary to the natural mechanisms in our minds. The F/F Variable is one, and the Cyclical Emotions & Moods is another. Understanding these is vital for a peaceful and relatively crime free society.

I used to plot both those mechanisms, I could do it again if I felt like it, but I got familiar with them and that familiarity made an enormous difference to my life. I don't think in terms of "left" and "right" any longer, I think in terms of feast and famine. In the case of politics, it's who is being deprived of their politics, and who is dominating with another politics. If one is continually dominating, as we see with globalist progressive politics, the others are being deprived of theirs, which the lefties try to make out is racist nazi politics, this is not the case because we see people with conservative views for Australia elected to parliament

If we had any sense, we would ease up on voting for globalist progressive politics and start voting for more conservatism and consider the Australian ethos for a change, minus the excesses of lefty progressive politics. That would go a long way to bringing us back to equilibrium

Recognising difference - bad. No tg recognising difference - bad.


In ethical terms, health care systems are supposed to be "blind" to culture, offering the same level of care and respect to all patients regardless of background. Programs promoting diversity and inclusivity in health care are designed to further this aim - and yet for immigrants and other minorities, the practice can fall far from the ideal.

https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/philosopherszone/health-care-ethics-other...

This passes for research and knowledge:

At a time when national identities are being reasserted in Western Europe alongside moral and intellectual visions of a cosmopolitan order more inclusive than nationalism, what does belonging mean for immigrants who are non-Europeans, particularly for women from South Asia, Africa and the Middle East? Based on the lived experiences of 23 women of diverse backgrounds, who are first-generation immigrants, regarding their experiences while accessing the healthcare system in Zurich, Switzerland, I illustrate through migrant experiences how Othering and belonging are experienced within the web of chaotic meanings and social space one navigates. By employing a phenomenological–sociological approach, I present how embodied migrant experiences can capture the experiences of being an 'Other', as well as how moral emotions such as shame and humiliation can influence one's moral self and its significance to everyday moral discourse. While much of the academic discourse around belonging focuses on a place and its related connectedness to one's racial, gender and ethnic identity, here, I analyse cosmopolitanism's possibilities through Othering/belonging experiences within the healthcare context, and beyond. I conclude this paper with the key contributions of the ethics of belonging to the normative discourse on migration health.

What a load of mish mash nonsense. Judith Butler, you should be proud.
