Execupundit points to an interesting colloquy between Jordan Peterson and Camille Paglia about the future of Western Civilization. It is only seven minutes; but, they hit all the important questions. Will tech improvement that have lifted many from poverty to a middle class lifestyle be overcome by Roman like expansion that outstrips our ability to cope? Will multiculturalism and bureaucracy combine to crush the spirit of what makes Western civilizations successful? Will restrictions on free speech have a stultifying impact on innovation? Will the feel good indoctrination of modern Universities and the dumbing down of educational systems, create a society unprepared for conflict? Will identity politics create a society in which consciousness becomes irrelevant. Will the destruction of personal responsibility cause a tsunami of societal destruction? All of this said, I must live my own life as well as I can. If you are alive after me, which is a good bet, you must reap this whirlwind. Regardless, live your own life well. It is your choice.
