You can’t beat the Left for the free exercise of ugly prejudices. Insistent voices signal their virtue about fashionable obsessions — race, class, and gender — but then let their own antipathies loose. There are verboten prejudices and permitted prejudices. But no principle.
Unrestrained contempt against Christians, for example, is not only allowed but encouraged. It’s especially applauded when directed against Catholics, for Church teaching is an impediment to the dogmas of modern secularism. It is therefore always open season on Catholics; just ask Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
