Frank Herbert
“Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Ben Shapiro
“Since America is, by all available metrics, incredibly tolerant and open, it has grown more and more difficult to find instances of true oppression in America. When demand for victimization narratives exceeded supply, Disintegrationists mine American history for such oppression, then declare that modern ills can be attributed to historical injustices. Sometimes, to some extent, that is the case. But the outsize attempt to pin modern, continuing ills on events centuries old wears thin for those who would rather solve problems than create them.”
Ben Shapiro, How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps

“As one of the consequences of the death of God, Friedrich Nietzsche foresaw that people could find themselves stuck in cycles of Christian theology with no way out. Specifically that people would inherit the concepts of guilt, sin and shame but would be without the means of redemption which the Christian religion also offered. Today we do seem to live in a world where actions can have consequences we could never have imagined, where guilt and shame are more at hand than ever, and where we have no means whatsoever of redemption.”
Douglas Murray, The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race and Identity

“But once we begin to rely on other people to recognize and affirm our identity, it becomes uncertain, shifting according to the whims of other people. I think this is why most of us roll our eyes whenever we are encouraged to “accept” ourselves or “believe” in ourselves or “be whoever we want to be.” They are empty self-esteem slogans that don’t reflect the reality that we need some kind of external affirmation. Self-affirmation simply doesn’t satisfy. We need a witness.”
Alan Noble, You Are Not Your Own: Belonging to God in an Inhuman World
