There is so many things that SJWs have ruined that it’s hard to know where to start. Here’s a partial list:
- The English language
- The Internet
- Fashion
- Football
- Movies
- Wedding cakes
- Sex/Gender
- Intellectual debate
- Civil discussion
- Education in general and College in particular
- Freedom of speech/expression
- Progressivism (no tears division)
- The LGBTQ community
In SJWs Destroy Everything Rod Dreher drills down on a few of them - education, religion and sex/gender; it’s a disturbing read. He starts by chronicling the breakdown of education, specifically that of a once elite public school system in Edina, MN. Nobody was spared:
“The school district’s All for All plan mandated that henceforth “all teaching and learning experiences” would be viewed through the “lens of racial equity,” and that only “racially conscious” teachers and administrators should be hired.
Even bus drivers had to be reeducated:
The training session was entitled “Edina School DIstrict Equity and Racial Justice Training: Moving from a Diversity to a Social Justice Lens.” In it, trainers instructed bus drivers that “dismantling white privilege” is “the core of our work as white folks,” and that working for the Edina schools requires “a major paradigm shift in the thinking of white people.” Drivers were exhorted to confess their racial guilt, and embrace the district’s “equity” ideology.
How are things working out, after just 4 years?
You will not be surprised to discover that for all the wokeness forced upon the public schools in Edina, academic scores for black students there have not improved, but in fact gone down.
But on an optimistic note, the administrators, teachers and most of all the brain-washed students themselves are certainly more “racially and class conscious” – as if that is a good thing.
At Edina High School, the equity agenda is the leading edge of a full-scale ideological reeducation campaign. A course description of an 11th-grade U.S. Literature and Composition course puts it this way: “By the end of the year, you will have . . . learned how to apply marxist [sic], feminist, post-colonial [and] psychoanalytical . . .lenses to literature.”
The article proceeds to explain how SJWs are destroying the Episcopal Church:
The Episcopal church in the Diocese of Washington, D.C., passed a resolution last week to stop using masculine pronouns for God in future updates to its Book of Common Prayer.
Why, you ask? Because patriarchy:
“Many of us are waiting and need to hear God in our language, in our words and in our pronouns,”
“By expanding our language for God, we will expand our image of God and the nature of God,” they stated.
I suspect God would prefer that they get over their narcissism and just listen to His message. It’s not all about them and their gender, however they care to define it.
And that brings us to the next thing the article cites as a victim of the Social Justice Marauders: sex/gender. To be honest, this section is so disturbing I almost want to tell you to skip it but I guess it’s best to know what the hell the whacked out Left is seeking to normalize these days. The answer of course is anything that is not normal. First is body mutilation in the interest of “transitioning” to an alternate gender. And while there may be only 2 sexes, in the New Normal you are no longer restricted to the mundane male/female/neuter options in selecting a new gender. In fact you may be surprised to learn that your gender options have grown to over100. Apparently if you can dream it you can be it. Whatever “it” is.
Perhaps “Anongender” - a gender that is unknown to both yourself and others
Something else that I discovered has been “normalized,” in the most ironic sense of the word, is anal sex…for teenaged girls. No Virginia, it’s not just for gay boys any more. If you doubt me just check the link in the article to Teen Vogue’s how-to guide to anal sex for teen girls.
So how have SJWs ruined everything? It would appear it was as simple as rejecting all things normal in favor of all things abnormal (by definition) and turning them into the “New Normal.” And if you don’t accept their new standards for the New Normal you’re no better than Hitler.
“Normalcy should be discarded (as) it creates this mythical standard that forces individuals to compare themselves to others.”
No problem there, for all intents and purposes normalcy has been handily discarded as a white male construct, at least in education. But if SJW’s don’t think we should compare themselves to others, how do they explain Facebook?
