On the Fact that We're Now Supposed to Pretend that Chopin, Liszt, Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, and Bach Are Literally No Different from the Hip Hop Artists of Today In that a) All Cultures Are Equally Worthy and b) Those Former Individuals Were Privileged (Being White European Men) and so We Therefore Must Penalize Them

What is happening in the West these days is truly unprecedented. Aside from perhaps the cultural revolution in China, no society has turned against itself the way that we are and it seems to be accelerating. If I had to make a guess here, it would likely be that a) things will eventually come to a head and b) the best, least violent, outcome will be some sort of secession/separation. We'll see, I guess.
