A checklist to identify your level of “Artificial Stupidity”

Friday/weekend blog

As readers will be aware, we in the West are moving into an era of thought-totalitarianism in which there is only one accepted viewpoint on every issue facing us.

Here are just twenty three of the most widespread beliefs we must agree with if we are to be an accepted member of society. Should you disagree with any of these, and even worse if you dare express doubts about any of these, you risk cancellation, social banishment, career destruction and financial ruin.

This list is not meant to be exhaustive. I’m sure readers will think of other incredibly stupid ideas being forced on us by the progressive, virtue-signalling, holier-than-thou, libtard, globalist elites:

1. White people are responsible for all the world’s problems
2. All white people are racists – either overtly or else subconsciously
3. All the greatest scientific, medical and cultural achievements have come from Africa
4. There is no difference between races either in intelligence or physical attributes
5. All cultures are equal (we must never mention the oppression of women, homosexuals and lesbians by our friends from the Religion of Wonderfulness)
6. The concept of there being just two sexes – male and female – is an outmoded relic of oppressive patriarchal societies
7. There are at least 72 genders. Any person can self-identify with whatever gender they wish at any time they wish
8. Women can have penises, men can have vaginas. Men can become pregnant, women can impregnate other women or even men
9. Allowing men with penises into women’s toilets, changing rooms and prisons constitutes no danger at all to women
10. Africa would be a scientifically-advanced, economically-successful earthly paradise if it hadn’t been for evil white colonialists
11. Only white people were responsible for slavery – at no time have Africans or Arabs ever had slaves or sold slaves
12. Things like correct spelling, mathematics and sheet music are culturally-oppressive hangovers from white supremacism
13. The Covid ‘miracle vaccines’ are incredibly effective and totally safe. Anyone refusing vaccination is a right-wing, anti-vaxxer murderer putting other people in danger due to their own ignorance and selfishness
14. Human activity is causing catastrophic global warming and only by obeying the truant child prodigy – Saint Greta of Sweden – can we save the human race from self-destruction
15. Hot weather is a result of catastrophic Global Warming, cold or wet weather is a result of catastrophic Climate Change
16. Anyone concerned about preserving the world’s wildlife must never mention the explosive population growth in Africa as it is quite clear that a doubling of the population of Africa every 22 years has no effect at all on Africa’s wildlife
17. Likewise, it is quite clear that the poverty, misery, lack of clean water, starvation of hundreds of millions in Africa is a result of white colonialism and has nothing at all to do with the doubling of the population of Africa every 22 years
18. Similarly, it is quite clear that the poverty, misery, lack of clean water, starvation of hundreds of millions in Africa, while African rulers become billionaires looting their countries, has nothing at all to do with African corruption but is somehow caused by evil white colonialism
19. Nobody needs to take responsibility for their actions any more as everything is the fault of ‘the Government’ and everybody should be compensated by the Government any time they do something stupid
20. The concepts of countries and borders are outmoded. We are all part of the same family of mankind and everyone should be allowed to go and live in whichever country they choose
21. Democracy is dangerous as it can lead to abhorrent results like “populism” – the election of leaders who are popular with their electorates. It would be better if we were all ruled by a global bureaucratic class which knows what is best for us
22. The BBC in the UK and CNN and MSNBC in the US provide balanced, objective reporting and are national treasures. News channels like GB News in the UK and Fox News in the US are dangerous right-wing, Trump-supporting , neo-fascist propagandists
23. There is only one side to every issue. Thus there is no need for discussion. Anyone disagreeing with the politically-correct version of every issue is either stupid or evil and/or a fascist

Here’s Thomas Sowell explaining how young people today are being taught what to think rather than how to think – how young people are being taught what Sowell calls “Artificial Stupidity”:
