re: The world in which we live: An Observation

We have embraced a new Primitivism. All men of conscience struggle in a world of willful moral idiocy. At this very moment on another thread, a guy is telling me that the Holocaust signifies nothing in particular. It seems that we are winding things down on Western Civilization. That will be painful for guys like us who revere literature and history and the pursuit of truth.We can personally elevate, but we are essentially cultural dissidents in a sea of primitives. I’m making my peace with that.
