Poem
A point of view that I first saw back in my college years now seems to be quite everywhere, and that’s reason to fear. That moral relativism the toxic left promotes strikes me as at the greatest evil, and it has made inroads. You see it in the braying fools who claim no one should judge, that all systems are just as good, “Come on, man. It’s all love.” They make excuses for people, say, “That’s just their values. We should respect their culture, brah.” (Though they won’t respect you.) The only thing they treat like sin is judging things at all, for if you disagree with that the mobs all shout, “Cancel!” But when I hear the wokies shout, “It is all relative,” I start seeing falsehoods the no sane person could forgive, For if it is ‘all relative,’ then I must truly ask is that statement true all the time? Then it’s objective fact. And if that one thing’s objective, even that single case, than all things are not relative, and they’re made a mistake. But deeper than that logic trick more issues still appear, and in terms of morality I think the cost is clear. Say I broke in and raped your wife, shot your dog, robbed your pad, if morals are all relative then you can’t say that’s bad. After all, from my point of view, these could be moral acts, claim that it’s right to force women, you can’t object to that! Who are you to say your beliefs should take place over mine? Are we not both human beings? Do we not both have minds? All of these things are relative, so you cannot judge me, no one can say that what you think beats my morality. Now some see this scenario and claim it’s quite absurd, they counter that society will have the final word. That what most people agree on will dictate how it goes, but there’s issue if our morals simply go with the flow. Since society is human, and all humans are flawed, those flaws will carry over to our very rules and laws. Imagine that rapist again, and in this case let’s say he convinced millions of people to see the morals his way. If somehow the majority felt that rape was just fine, and passed a law to that effect would it still be a crime? If you believe society can determine what’s right, then they can say, “Let him rape you! It’s wrong to kick and fight!” And though that seems hyperbolic, in some countries it’s fact, the Middle East and Africa, often excuse such acts. Are the women victims of this thus wrong to feel the pain? After all, it’s all relative, people gave their okay!... CONCLUDES IN PART II.
