[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

While I agree with Lizzie up to a point - middle age is where the narrow waistline and broad mind tend to swap places - Im concerned by the movements in Uni,s and colleges recently to abolish and get rid of anything that doesnt fit the leftist worldview.
Even relatively moderate left wingers like Germaine Greer, being denied the right to speak their views in Uni,s because they dont exactly agree with the current fashionable thinking is scary.
If there is one place where every point of view should be rationally discussed its in Universities. If it cant happen there what hope is there for it happening in the wider world ?

Yep...cancel culture is the order of the day in 2020. The students (those with the most influence) won't allow anyone who doesn't fit 100% with their post modernist view of the world to speak. PM theory has already decided they are 100% correct, and will remain so for all eternity. No need for further debate.

Post Modernism is no more than a dangerous cult. It does not rely on objective evidence or evidence of any sort to make it's argument. PM simply relies on the lived experiences of the biggest victim class. According to PM 'evidence' along with 'science' is simply a construct of white male oppressors and as such is simply dismissed as lies.  The bigger the 'perceived victim' the bigger the say they have when 'obediently' following the PM doctrine.

I remember when you used to be a fully signed up, card carrying lefty. You must be getting wiser as you get older. 
A very well thought out and written post btw.

I am a socialist in as much as I don't believe in taking advantage of, and exploiting other human beings........(with the exception of attractive and sexually available women, obviously)

But yes.....some of the dogmatic crap that is being 'obediently' lapped up by students of 2020 is of concern. It's the sort of doctrine you would expect to find in China or North Korea.

Capitalism should be both parties taking advantage of a particular situation in a way which mutually benefits both. Its a superb system when operated that way.
People who use it to exploit others, are either to stupid, lazy or greedy to do it properly.
Socialism doesnt and cant work. It flies in the face of human nature.

I believe (where possible) in equality of opportunity.

Equality of outcome I do not believe to be possible......or even desirable.

My lad's at uni. He does his maths work, shags his girlfriend and eats shite. Normal behaviour with no mention of politics.

As a God fearing church goer I don't hold with sex before marriage. I think your lad should 'slip his ring over her finger' before engaging in any rumpo.

Probably the best tool we ever had for that in this country was Grammar schools. Socialist dogma abolished almost all of them.
Luckily for both my kids, we still have a couple near here, which is a big part of why they both have good professional careers, despite the fact their Dad was a thick as pigshit concrete shoveller.

I think he'd prefer to slip his finger up a female ring, rather than his own. But I don't know this for sure, of course

Stopped shovelling concrete 12 years ago. The rest still applies.

No...I refer to an eternity or engagement ring. The way your mind works, by thinking of a 'bumhole ring'......

I try not to think about bumhole rings, not too often, anyway
