As a Nigerian-immigrant in North America, I have come to one conclusion: Social Justice, wokeness and progressivism can ONLY exist in a developed, liberal and first-world nation/region where there are very few existential threats and where the purposeless masses in urban areas have to create some form of ideology to fill the void in their lives. That is why it makes no sense and destroys that society. That is also why non-western countries and immigrants mostly tend to hate social justice and wokeness more than the native citizens.

@deborahdean8867 I agree with you there. Wokeness and progressivism are the new religions here, along with all the damage they cause.

@JohnSmith-hs1hn You are right to a degree that I wouldn't be here without past social justice actions like the Hart-Celler immigration act of 1965 (A bill-turned-law proposed by two white democrat politicians in 1965 to change the USA immigration laws that only favored immigrants from Northern Europe) and the great work of people like Martin Luther King Jr. But I am not here by virtue of any current social justice movement. I got to this country by my own merit (academic, legal and financial) and hard work. I am still here because I am working my ass off to pay my tuition and maintain good immigrant status. Social justice, as it is today, had absolutely nothing to do with it. Given how current social justice proponents tend to favor illegal immigrants over legal hard working immigrants, like me, who actually love America, I doubt what you are saying is true. The Civil rights movement back then never promoted racial identitarianism or separatism as they do now. They never promoted anti-American values as they do now. They NEVER promoted illegal immigration as they do now. So this current social justice movement is not responsible for me being here. They would likely prefer I were never here since I do not embrace their ideology.

@Seth Tegler Trust me friend, most immigrants are culturally and economically conservative but we are not a majority of the voting block no matter how you slice it. It's the native born citizens in the urban areas who continue to vote left and for the destructive woke policies we all see. How many immigrants do you see advocating for reduced police funding, teaching gender identity studies to kids, more welfare spending, etc?

@Johnwilkinsonofficial thank you too and God bless.

@JohnSmith-hs1hn Um, I dunno. Considering that they were the only African country to have nuclear reactors and nukes, I would say that made them developed. It all went to hell and then some after Mandela and his cronies came to power. Many of them were avid marxists and that was how social justice and all its ills came to South Africa aka Zimbabwe 2.0. As a Nigerian, I have no love or sympathy for South Africa given how the populous there treat Nigerians like me. So far, the only good leader in that country is Desmond Tutu.

@GuidetteExpert Oh I wish😂 Sadly, many third world regions are not rich/wealthy enough like the west to start promoting useless and destructive academic programs like Critical Theory, Gender Studies, or basically what the Liberal Arts have now become here. Besides, our cultures just don't work along those lines.

@weiyu114 You are right on the money. I was actually just watching a Benjamin Boyce podcast and James Lindsey actually said what you just said.

@keliamadiba7016 With no mind to disrespect anyone's ancestors, I got into North America via my own merit and hard work and I earned the privilege of being allowed to study here and I am the own paying my own tuition. I owe this to no one, except God, myself and the family who raised me back home.

@cor3944 What "open borders"? Do you assume I just walked into Canada and got a cheque and a place to live? I had to prove by my own academic and financial merit in order to get accepted into a highschool (and currently, in a college) here and I am still having to prove that by meeting my tuition payments and being enrolled full-time and not breaking any laws. Also, I didn't come here for "social justice." I came here to get a good education, better economic opportunities, and a chance to become a legal resident and also to improve my own country later on. It's called being a legal immigrant and I have yet to see any of the "social justice activists" advocating for that. They don't want hard working good people who value and want to assimilate into western society to come here.

@kathymartin5730 What proof do you have of any of this?

@corysmith3447 Well no. If anything you are not really disproving what he said. He states that monogamy is not the norm for humans evolutionary-wise as it is a relatively new social system like agriculture. But he also goes on to list the benefits of monogamy to human society and how it helps us in so many ways like ensuring stable societies and promoting greater parental investment in offspring that ensures the viability of any society that practices it. A lot of practices go against basal and primal human nature but that does not mean we should just get rid of them outright.
