The manifesto of the new age

Speech is violence

Outcomes are causes

Denial is guilt

Censorship is inclusion

Power is truth

Violence is peaceful

Vulnerability is power

Strength is safety

Freedom is uniformity of results

Property is theft

Dialogue is supression

Knowledge is slavery

Everyone is the same

But differences are supreme

Who you love is innate to who you are

Who you are is entirely up to you to decide

History must be judged and erased

The past can never be forgotten or forgiven

All white people are the same

No non-white people are

White history is unitary and reductive

All other history is diverse and valuable

All instincts are natural and good

Just not the bad ones

People shouldn’t be judged by skin color

Unless it helps people with the right skin color get ahead

All people are perfect in themselves

Except for the people making those people feel bad

Sexual of any kind is perfectly natural

Except traditional sexuality, which is bizzare and pathological

All truth is relative and of equal value

Except any truths we don’t like or agree with

All cultures have equal value and outcomes

Except all the bad ones

Womanhood isn’t defined by biological identity

Except when it comes to condemning men

Men and women are of completely equal value

Except that women are better and men are awful

Men and women are completely the same

Except in all the ways men are bad

There’s nothing wrong with me or with anyone

At least, that couldn’t be solved by getting rid of you

Everything is equally beautiful and good

Except beautiful things, those are bourgeois and bad

Justice needs to be personal

Therefore it must be enforced at society-wide levels

Art should be free of constraints

So it must always reject the conventional and common and elevate alternatives

Unequal outcomes always indicate injustice at work

Unless we’re talking about people on the losing end, then never

Gender is a construct

But sexuality is immutable

And so is gender guilt

The patriarchy is to blame for everything

Except everything good

Money is an evil trap and an abuse of humanity

Which is why we should all have more of it

Perceptions are reality when I feel them

But you can’t

Common and shared realities promote division

Divided realities promote tolerance

All meta-narratives are fictions

Except ours

All value systems are arbitrary constructions

Except ours, and yours is bad

We have seen through everything

And we’re the only ones who can see

Explanations are excuses

Except when we’re talking about my behavior

There is no right or wrong

All of life is a tapestry of abuses and crimes

Social cohesion and equality is paramount

We achieve this through unconstrained individuality

Power is the only constituency and goal of society and discourse

Having it makes you bad

Feelings determine the legitimacy of claims

But not yours or the most common ones, only these ones that I’ve got

Hegemony is evil

Except ours won’t be

My identity is the most important and fixed thing in the world

Yours isn’t and needs to change

All theoretical thinking is meaningless powermongering

Except that theory

Dogmative prescriptivism is evil and harms individuals

Except ours won’t

There are no valid criteria for judging others or supporting any kind of prejudice

Except against white people, men, Christians, conservatives, objectivists, straight people, cisgendered people, capitalists, the rich, the powerful, Americans, any people who lived in the past that we don’t approve of, anyone who is too conventional and bourgeois, the police, corporations, politicians, small-town America, or anyone who is less stunning and perfect and beautiful than you are

You cannot reduce people to broad, generic, stereotyped categories

Except Europeans.

And maybe men, Republicans, capitalists, Christians, rich people, and straight people

Denial is proof of guilt

At least when you do, not when people we like do it

Everyone deserves the products of their production

It’s exploitation if you offer them better opportunities

Differences in history should have produced equal outcomes

The only reason they didn’t is because history can produce differing outcones

What’s atypical is common and natural

What’s common is weird and unnatural

Everyone is inherently good and wants the same things

Danger and oppression is everywhere

Bslad behaviors need to be accommodated, not avoided

Because there’s no such thing as bad behavior, and all outcomes should be equally good

The only really bad behavior is when someone else makes things turn out unequally, which shouldn’t be possible, because there are no bad behaviors, and all behaviors should have equal outcomes
