scourge of equality


I do not usually read newspapers at all now, mainly because most newspapers pander to the cult of celebrity or are just mouth pieces for an immoral and elitist government. However, I read an article in the Scotland on Sunday written by Gerald Warner entitled, “Scourge of Equality”.

 In this article he refers to equality as a pernicious myth, he derides the ethos of equality and makes reference to,” normal and abnormal people” as in normal people good abnormal people bad. He does not openly, or has the courage to say, who he believes the abnormal people are though.  

He refers to the cult of equality as a, “mental illness derived from the psychosis that is liberalism”.

It is not surprising to me to see such views being expressed. The conservative and liberal democratic war against disabled people has given heart to people who believe that striving for equality is wrong and somehow immoral. That working for a society based on equality and inclusion will drag the western world into an abyss.

 His views are abhorrent and disgusting to me. However what is frightening is the fact he was given a forum to vent his views in a newspaper with no reference to any facts. Neither do, “abnormal”, have any opportunity to respond.
