It seems liberals are busy constructing oppressive othodoxies everywhere, thought prisons where truth is dictated and anyone who denies that asserted orthodoxy is by denying it automatically persona non grata - the non debate over gay marriage is an example of this, where anyone opposing it was immediately cast as an intolerant homophobe - so to the attempt to do the same viz climate change where some liberals have come out and said with a straight face that anyone who denies the reality of climate change should be charged with a crime - the 'debate' over inequality is definitely moving in this direction, where again the rhetoric of the left attempts to construct an orthodoxy that says of course capitalism serves the evil rich at the expense of the poor and anyone who denies this truth must be in league with the evil rich - and then there's racism, the go to warden of the thought prison who can shut down any criticism of anything or anyone by a 'white' person [preferably a white hetero male who is or at least appears to be 'privileged' in some way which, conveniently, by just being a white etc etc is privilege enough according to prison rules] by simply saying 'only a racist would think that way' - shutting down debate with a charge of racism is truly the non plus ultra of liberal orthodoxy in the age of Obama.
As is obvious this agenda is all about suppressing dissent and quarantining liberal ideology against doubt - once again we see how progressives take naturally to autocracy - indeed, their ideas cannot survive outside of an enabling orthodoxy that allows, insists on them being imposed - they're not just by nature sympathetic to autocracy, they're in fact nothing without it.
