Quote by Douglas Murray

“Historical criticism and rethinking are never a bad idea. However, the hunt for visible, tangible problems shouldn't become a hunt for invisible, intangible problems. Especially not if they are carried out by dishonest people with the most extreme answers. If we allow malicious critics to misrepresent and hijack our past, then the future they plan off the back of this will not be harmonious. It will be hell.”

“This is an unusual language for academics to write in: to boast that a particular collection of academics and teachers are, in fact, academics "with an activist dimension." And as for the admission that CRT seeks not just to understand society but to "transform it"? This is the language of revolutionary politics, not a language traditionally used in academia. But revolutionary activists were exactly those involved in GRT turned out to be.”

“Like all societies in history, all Western nations have racism in their histories. But that is not the only history of our countries. Racism is not the sole lens through which our societies can be understood, and yet it is increasingly the only lens used. Everything in the past is seen as racist, and so everything in the past is tainted.”

“The gift that witchcraft gives us is the gift of connection—the very thing the Disenchanted World wants to take away. When we do a spell, we are connecting to ourselves and our own power. We can connect to the land, stones, animals, and plants that surround us, along with the spirits we cannot always see, but that are here just like we are. In most group witchcraft rituals, people sit or stand in a circle, often holding hands to collect and raise power. Witchcraft is about connection, and feeling connected is punk as hell.”
