The dangerous anti-democratic world of Identity Politics adopted by Judges

Back in June of 1916 Rex Murphy rung a warning bell about the infiltration of the dangerous, anti-democratic notions of Identity Politics into the US Supreme Court by Judge Sonia Sotomayor appointed by then-President Obama. 

He stated that: "This is the kind of sterile, vapid, chauvinistic alley identity politics draws you into. If we start claiming special and exclusive intellectual and moral capacities because of one’s race or sex, offering those capacities as intrinsic to race and sex, then have we not merely put a happy face on the repulsive and core ideas of racism and sexism?"

His article appears at: https://nationalpost.com/opinion/rex-murphy-the-sterile-vapid-chauvinistic-alley-of-identity-politics

This 3-year-old article was prophetic because the problem of judges introducing politically and socially dangerous false notions into the jurisprudence of the U.S. and Canadian Courts systems has now become immeasurably worse, with Law Schools and Judges organizations across the continent brainwashing lawyers and judges to adopt the same notions.  Now  it is not possible to be confident that justice can be obtained in our courts.

Rex Murphy points out the fallacies of identity politics in his article.  When notions of identity politics are examined closely, they are so similar to the dogmas and blind prejudices of ideologies like Communism and Fascism and the fundamentalist dogmas of some religions and religious fanatics that the differences are often only of degree. 

The Communists and Fascists torture, imprison, drug, or murder those who oppose their ideological values.  Muslim societies, especially their theocratic states, do similar things.  Ancient Christian societies also behaved similarly.  The mass murderers in power in Myanmar behave the same way towards Muslim groups. 

This isn't to say that Sotomayor and her ilk want to inflict direct physical violence upon "white males", but the similarities of the harm they do varies only by degrees, not absolutes.  However, the purveyors of identity politics do great psychological damage to "white males", children (especially boys) and to our society as a whole.  Our courts and law schools are becoming increasingly infested with such attitudes.  Our universities,  school systems and much of our media outlets already are.

Those citizens interested in justice and opposed to the false dogmas and notions of identity politics must become aware of this problem and demand that Canadian politicians and political parties put an end to these false ideas, at least in the administration of justice, policing and educational systems.
