      Yes, but of course, you know as well as I, we are doing the very opposite in the English speaking world. We have though the ideas and art on our side, a magnificent cultural inheritance. We are not asked to storm a beach or live in a muddy hole, but somehow must find the ways to pass along what to us was given. The men who died at places like the Somme were not deluded victims of state indoctrination, they and their wives and sisters never believed their country perfect, just that it was capable of improvement and, if for no other reason, thus better than the alternative. It would be a start to return to that. The left believes they can destroy our civilisation by pointing up imperfections in our past. They come not for the obvious targets but for the very best of us, for Churchill, for Lincoln, believing that by discrediting even our best beloved they can condemn the whole civilisation. They teach that because we are not, never have been, perfect, we cannot be good, our history is a shame, the future our come uppance. They get away - unlike previous attackers of western civilisation - with not offering an alternative, no communist utopia (for obvious reasons!). They instead suggest it doesn't matter what comes in its place. As nothing can be so bad, anything would be an improvement on what has come down to us. We should not let them get away with this. If we are so bad what's the alternative? Or (as Douglas Murray has said) compared to what? What other tradition allows evils to be criticised from within and over time corrected? Is that not the killer question? We should teach warts and all but also the internal opposition at the time and subsequent developments.

    That was the most inspiring speech I heard in this era. The fight for the basic freedoms we enjoy was won, the right to vote, women's rights, gay rights, civil rights, were fought for and won. We were moving positively towards more opportunity and equality for the majority, when an envious force was slowly, in the shadows, rising up and destroying everything; I would argue that DEI is the equivalent of a bad tempered child, having a tantrum, who purposely breaks the only toy, so that no one ends up playing...

      Peterson's under the thumb of politics at the moment though, he's made his bed now. It's a bed filled with candidates for the next election, and in the morning he is really going to wish he had used protection.
      Douglas was always political, but unlike Dr P he never switched sides. Peterson is too heavily influenced at the moment, Douglas is just far less biased at the moment.

      @@DailyCorvid Peterson's politics takes from both left and right, and really isn't the boogie man character the mainstream media make him out to be, for example his belief in the freedom of the individual makes him appreciate libertarian values. He's not a supporter of Trump or of Biden either, so it sounds like you're reading too much of the mainstream, be precise in your points. What is it he has said/done that you object to exactly?
