radical doctrines to bear on all areas of governmental concern - Kenneth Minogue

is its openness to talent wherever found, the feminist demand for collective quotas has overturned the basic feature of our civilization.

The evident problem with democracy today is that the state is pre-empting – or 'crowding out', as the economists say – our moral judgments. Rulers are adding moral judgments to the expanding schedule of powers they exercise. Nor does the state deal merely with principles. It is actually telling its subjects to do very specific things. Yet decisions about how we live are what we mean by 'freedom,' and freedom is incompatible with a moralizing state. That is why I am provoked to ask the question: can the moral life survive democracy?

the radical feminist revolution is nothing less than a destruction of our civilization...We are no longer what were were. The West has collapsed.
