“Social Justice” Is A Scam

December 10, 2023

Social Justice, as explained in Thomas Sowell’s 2023 book: “Social Justice Fallacies”, is perfectly impossible. Social Justice is one of the main professed goals of cultural Marxism, and just as the title of Sowell’s book declares social justice is a fallacy. Sowell explains, with reference to the eighteenth century philosopher Jacques Rousseau, that social justice means all people should have “equal chances at all endeavors—other things being equal”. (Ref p.1) It should be obvious that other things are never equal. Therefore, “social justice” of this sort can never be achieved. Genetic inheritance, ancestry, body build , biological sex, geographical location, family advantages and disadvantages, cognitive powers (genetic and learned), there are many forms of intelligence, very early socio-economic experiences, unique interests and abilities, ones associates, drug use, social skill training, psychological hardiness and fitness, physical fitness, tenacity and perseverance, creativity, personal interests and pure good luck…and so much more.

While equal legal justice can be a sensible goal, no government can guarantee “equal chances at all endeavors…or equal outcomes at endeavors attempted. Cultural Marxism’s Social Justice, it is just a conceptual “red herring”; a rotten idea, dragging Americans off a well-worn trail to liberty and prosperity to one of chaos and ruin. Thus setting the stage for “transformation” to socialism’s sliding scale to universal failure.

Can You Define “Social Justice”?

Can You Define “Social Justice”?

My title for this posting is a kind and soft question designed to illustrate a not-so-kind hard fact.

Radical liberals inflict “kind and compassionate” balderdash (“social justice”) upon us to further their own political agendas.

They make-up their own socialist definitions of this amorphous term. These political operatives are scoundrels bent upon creating a powerful socialist government in order to confiscate your money and redistribute it to whoever else they see fit. 

The scam is that they find ways to take your money, “in fairness to the poor and disadvantaged, and disenfranchised”, and give it to others so-defined in order to gain their votes and strengthen their own political power. 

Of course there are those who support “social justice” because it makes them feel kind and compassionate and/or; because they are simply uniformed about the long-term consequences, i.e, political corruption, identity citizen disorder, socialism, growing population dependency upon the government, national financial ruin and eventual anarchy.

I challenge you to see the following  video and learn about the “sweet’ vacuous propagandistic language of the radical left, now embedded within a growing segment of our population wittingly or unwittingly destroying freedom and independence in America.

France: A Specter Of America’s Future

France: A Specter Of America’s Future

Ginger was kind enough to send me the following thoughts in response to my blog on 3/8/14, entitled, America: Stuck In The Driveway.

“I agree with you that America needs to wake up.  We are all Americans.  I have grown weary of the attitudes that think they have to put everyone in a box.

I relate wholeheartedly to this text from the Hillsdale College mission statement:”

‘The College values the merit of each unique individual, rather than succumbing to the dehumanizing, discriminatory trend of so called “social justice” and “multicultural diversity,” which judges individuals not as individuals, but as members of a group and which pits one group against other competing groups in divisive power struggles.’

My response follows:

Ginger,

Thanks so very much for taking time to contribute to this blog. I love the quote you appended from the Hillsdale College Mission statement. When many people hear the terms “social justice” and “multicultural Diversity” they have a warm feeling.

If people would only study the deferred sociocultural consequences of these sweet sounding catch-phrases and the political philosophy they disguise, they would see the truth. They are a significant component of a systematic strategy to transform The United States America into The Socialist Republic of America. This process has been perpetrated by both progressive/socialist Democrats and Republicans and it has been frighteningly successful.

Tomorrow’s blog will provide a real-time specter of our not-too-distant future, should we fail to reverse current trends.

The following video is “tomorrows blog” and it requires no further explanation from me than you will derive from its viewing. Stand-by for a strong message from the French.

Competition In Education Will Win!

Competition In Education Will Win!

The following is a great article on education, Obama’s proposed program to lower the costs of college. Two University of Michigan students debate the merits of this proposal. One is in favor of Obama’s big government supposed solution, the other student argues for free market competition in education.

I judge that the free market solution is the winner, as indicated in my remarks at the end of this article.

Obama and Alinsky: Take From Haves and Give to Have-Nots

Obama and Alinsky: Take From Haves and Give to Have-Nots

In his pamphlet on this topic, “Rules for Revolution”, David Horiwitz documents the strong connection between President Obama and Saul Alinsky, the radical revolutionary.

On page 31, he quotes and interprets Alinsky:

Alinsky’s book could easily be called Machiavellian Rules for Radicals, after the man who devised principles of statehood and advice for rulers in his book, The Prince. In Alinsky’s view, the difference between the unethical behavior counseled by Machiavelli and the unethical behavior he would like to see practiced by radicals lies solely in the fact that their political enemies are different. ‘The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power,’ Alinsky writes, ‘Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-nots on how to take it away’.

For Alinsky, politics is a zero sum exercise, because it is war. No matter what Alinsky radicals say publicly or how moderate they appear, they are at war. This provides them with a great tactical advantage since other actors in the political arena are not at war. The other actors actually embrace the system, which commits all parties to compromise and to the peaceful resolution of conflicts. It commits them to a pragmatism of ends as well as means. Not every wish can be satisfied. By contrast, Alinsky radicals have an unwavering end, which is to attack the so-called Haves until they are finally defeated. In other words, to undermine the system that allows them to earn and possess more than others. Such a system, according to the radicals, is one of ‘social injustice,’ and what they want is ‘social justice.’ The unwavering end of such radicals is a communism of results.

End quote of David Horowitz.
