If it prevailed in the whole modern world we'd still be in the Thirteenth Century; nay, we'd be back among the Egyptians of the pyramid age. Its only coherent contribution to Western thought has been theosophy-and theosophy is as idiotic as Christian Science.

The white working class has been disenfranchised as well. It's been disenfranchised by the liberal-left as well as the conservative-right.
