Today's Kulturkampf


For John, BLUF.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




Here is the sub-headline:

There’s no greater sin than condemning an innocent man without evidence. There’s no greater cowardice than caving in to mob pressure.

Kulturkampf is a "culture struggle", or struggle for cultural survival.

From The Federalist, by Doctoral Researcher Sumantra Maitra, 26 September 2018.

Here is a key paragraph:

The Kavanaugh nomination battle of course is the culmination of this leftist Kulturkampf.  The soft coup didn’t happen in one day.  The Obama era metastasized a massive bloating of public bureaucracy with liberal extremists and ideologues, the spread of campus kangaroo courts, activism, and aggressive public movements and marches, the replacement of news with social media controlled by amoral technocrats and shadowy edited algorithms, and the cultural battlefield totally ceded to the neo-Marxist left.
If you think this isn't the case wait for the next nominee, Judge Amy Coney Barrett.  She is, after all, a member of the People of Praise Community at Norte Dame.

Hat tip to the InstaPundit.

Please be forthright, but please consider that this is not a barracks.
