― Andrew Doyle, The New Puritans: How the Religion of Social Justice Captured the Western World

“The struggle for gay rights was about equal treatment before the law and making visible those whose persecution by the state had driven them into the shadows of society. Now that equality has been achieved, Pride has descended into a corporate orgy of identitarianism. The rainbow flag and all its tawdry spin-offs are a marker of virtue for companies that wish to sell products to the gullible and declare their commitment to -diversity and inclusion-.”
― Andrew Doyle, The New Puritans: How the Religion of Social Justice Captured the Western World

― Andrew Doyle, The New Puritans: How the Religion of Social Justice Captured the Western World

“We cannot change the past, but we can learn from it. As platitudinous as this might sound, it is worth reiterating at a time when cultural revolutionaries are promoting a tunnel-visioned approach to history and the arts. An alternative reality based on a denial of the past is no kind of reality at all.”
― Andrew Doyle, The New Puritans: How the Religion of Social Justice Captured the Western World

― Alexis Henderson, House of Hunger

“CRT poses, in essence, a sharply pointed question. What, really, were the chances that the white, propertied men of the early American Republic would set up a judicial and political and economic system that didn’t privilege...white, propertied men? Critical Theorists would say those chances would be, approximately, . . . zero.”
― John G. Stackhouse Jr., Woke: An Evangelical Guide to Postmodernism, Liberalism, Critical Race Theory, and More

― Gad Saad, The Saad Truth about Happiness: 8 Secrets for Leading the Good Life

The research showing that this is true is vast and has been known for decades, even if progressives prefer to ignore it or deny it or blame -systemic racism-.”
― Gad Saad, The Saad Truth about Happiness: 8 Secrets for Leading the Good Life

“I’m fascinated by this idea that the parliament has become too focused on ‘woke issues’ at the expense of what the public really care about, because the implication of that is that any minority group that needs protected aren’t the public, the public are whatever the majority group is.

If we govern on the basis of that, we would only be governing for straight, white, middle-aged men, who deserve good government like everybody else.”
― Ross Greer

“Life dealt you a hand of cards. And once life dealt the cards it called the game, collected the remaining cards, left the room, and prayed that you would be wise enough to understand that it’s not about the hand you were dealt. Rather, it’s about how you play it.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“Ours is an age of reckoning - savages call it wokeness, I call it correctiveness. And it is only through correction that this savage species might, just might, one day become human. It is only through correction we apes might one day usher into the dawn of humanity.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“Propaganda is everywhere - bigoted apes give in to their primitive ancestry and propagate hate and division - I, a civilized ape, refuse my innate primitiveness and choose to propagate love and inclusion. Savages choose tradition, I am human, so I choose transformation.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“Ours is an age of reckoning - savages call it wokeness, I call it correctiveness. And it is only through correction that this savage species might, just might, one day become human. It is only through correction we apes might one day usher into the dawn of humanity.

As usual, those who are fixed in the ways of the forefathers would instantly react to this as woke propaganda. So be it.

Propaganda is everywhere - bigoted apes give in to their primitive ancestry and propagate hate and division - I, a civilized ape, refuse my innate primitiveness and choose to propagate love and inclusion. Savages choose tradition, I am human, so I choose transformation.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“When all blow the horns of hate,
When peace sounds absurd and dim,
Fear not and take a deep breath,
Even a whisper of love
rings hurricane supreme.”

“Decolonized History Lesson
(Sonnet 1546)

Early Arabs and Indians
invented astronomy and algebra,
Early white people invented
genocide and massacre.

Indigenous Latinos invented chocolate,
Early Chinese invented printing.
Early Caucasians invented cockiness,
calling invasion as civilization-bringing.

Modern Arabs build cities in the desert,
Modern whites still burn down cities.
Modern Indians democratize space exploration,
Modern whites still manufacture disparities.

Modern whites coddle hate and prejudice,
and use free speech as justification.
If any humane white ever questions hate,
they're branded, woke traitor to the nation.

Till this day, white people manufacture
99% of the world's human rights violations.
If you right the wrong, it's cussed as wokeness,
To support white terrorism is patriotism.”
― Abhijit Naskar, World War Human: 100 New Earthling Sonnets

“Youth are the cure
for all dividing insanity.
You are the antidote
to all bewitching animosity.”
― Abhijit Naskar, World War Human: 100 New Earthling Sonnets

“Youth are the cure
for all dividing insanity.
You are the antidote
to all bewitching animosity.

Youth are absolution
to habits of death.
Youth are walking
illumination manifest.”
― Abhijit Naskar, World War Human: 100 New Earthling Sonnets

“I’m flattered when they make serious time out
to call me stupid, meaningless and narcissist.
If intolerance of prejudice makes me a dictator,
Hundred Hitlers fall pale to my God complex.”
