It was 1990. Communism was collapsing. The Berlin Wall had fallen. The West seemed to be facing a bright new future. After seventy years the world was going to embrace freedom It wasn’t to be. Communism stayed alive in the universities, then spread into the wider culture. If somebody in America in 1990 told you that in 2024 we would have censorship, speech codes, sensitivity readers for novels and Christian bakers charged with crimes for following their conscience, you would not have believed them. What is most tragic about the new totalitarianism is that it is being so widely embraced. If the communist Chinese were to invade tomorrow, I know people - and I’m sure you do as well - who would be kinging the streets to greet our new slave masters. Shockingly. Many if those who want tyranny are the young. College students are ignorant and illiterate.
