Any set of ideas can now be labelled an "ideology," allegedly granting it legitimacy, protection, and license to proceed unhindered in its quest to normalize whatever bizarre, barbaric, or perverse norms and behaviors it embraces. After all, if anyone claims those norms to comprise those which their faith sustains as superior, society is not supposed to question them.
Those norms suddenly become above reproach, beyond the scope even of law to abridge, despite clearly violating laws and principles of decent behavior and abusing people and rights. What is this, ultimately, if not a measure of the progress our society has made on the road to utter insanity and self-destruction?
To which ideologies or which norms does the above refer? In particular, there are now two ideologies that have become popular in America, both of which are characterized by anticonstitutional aspects, abusiveness, and norms that are unlawful in America: communism and Islam.
Lots of people tend to use the terms "socialist" and "liberal" and "progressive" rather than "communist," a trend that apparently means to avoid embracing that which America's Federal Code prohibits. Perhaps those euphemisms were initially introduced in order to avoid prosecution. But Lenin said, and the reader can be sure, "Communism is the goal of Socialism."
It is a great shame that the extreme abuses practiced by communist regimes throughout the last century are not more widely discussed in America's public schools, colleges, and universities. What is an education that hides the facts from students? But anyone who reads Alexander Solzhenitsyn's The Gulag Archipelago and Armando Valladares' Against All Hope cannot fail to gain an appreciation of the abominations routinely practiced by Communists, some of whom have referred to themselves as socialists.
