The path of self-denial. How tolerance is corroding science

Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

[REGNUM] American atheist philosopher Daniel Dennett once likened evolutionism to a “universal acid” that corrodes all traditional ideas about the world. Oh, if only he knew that the West would soon be flooded with a much more poisonous and corrosive acid, compared to which Darwin’s good old theory is just kefir for children. This hellish liquid of lethal destructive power was brewed in their retorts by left-wing intellectuals and activists: neo-Marxists, feminists, adherents of “critical theory” and post-colonialism.
A brew originally cooked up in the propaganda mills of the Soviet Union, but please do go on, Mr. Khramov.
They developed a plan for a total restructuring of the entire society in the interests of minorities and “oppressed” groups - everything that could hurt, offend and infringe on them must be thrown off the ship of modernity. Wokeism - the name of this acid ideology - seeps into all pores of Western civilization, splitting all its foundations: religion, cultural canon (why do they teach Homer in universities, let's study African songs instead), family, marriage and even basic ideas about human biology (a man, say the vocalists, can become a woman, and a woman can become a man). Even old-style skeptics like atheist Richard Dawkins, who had already been “cancelled” for critical statements about transgender people, howled at this “universal acid.”

#1  "Friend, suicide's such a sad act,"
Clucks a Russian, his culture intact
As he doctors the West.
"Try my meds. They're the best!
Not to mention, polonium-packed."
