I liked this essay - some will find it offensive possibly, wrong headed, intolerant or illiberal a bit maybe - but as far as I'm concerned if you're thinking about the future of the West and the idea of enlightened democracy which the West gave birth to and you're not framing the argument in terms similar to those raised by this essay, then you're either engaged in naive ideological obfuscation or you haven't been paying adequate attention to these threads in the historical pattern that are starting to fray and unwind towards an end state that is increasingly difficult to predict.
