Prejudice is built-in to all human DNA, and for that matter to animal DNA. Social scientists would instantly reject this conclusion. So would society in general, which demands that “no “decent” person should or could be prejudiced. You must go on the record just as instantly — with all due respect to decency, you are flat-out prejudiced. On a case by case basis, you have animosity, bias, aversion, dislike, disgust and even revulsion for all matter and manner of things. And, if you have the “wrong politics,” Social Justice Warriors will happily lump you into the “deplorable” category — someone who is a bigot, racist, xenophobe, sexist, hater, liar, etc. You see, these Social Engineers are free to aim their brand of prejudice against you. Only their (justifiable) prejudice against you would never be called that — not on your life. And if you complain that it does, why goodness, Matilda, that proves you’re prejudiced. And round and round the pot and kettle it goes. Let’s be clear and honest — “virtue signalers” of the political Left own the Media stage through Big Press, Big Network TV and Big Entertainment. On a daily basis, they systematically hammer their malice, working to silence the very people who exemplify America’s freedom loving identity. Unfortunately for these self-absorbed thought police, they ran into a buzzsaw called Donald Trump — he, the embodiment of American audacity and backbone, the antithesis of the snooty, intellectual archetype. Trump has awakened real people who do real work, who live in the real world, where prejudice exists in real life. To suit their collectivist motives, the political ruling class defines prejudice as intolerance, suggesting you have beliefs that have no basis. You, on the other hand, define it another way — simply as “having preference” for almost every aspect of life, including people, places and things. To be fair, prejudice primarily refers to “intense preference” — an unwavering, unshakable preference. A few examples: You despise Socialism as the arch enemy of a free people. You despise Rap Music. You hate Uptalk and cringe to hear the metallic grating of female “vocal fry.” You have special disdain for government authorities who abuse the people’s trust to seek riches. For political opportunists who put their careers ahead of their country’s best interest. For university fascists who rampage against free speech. For cabinet officials who lie under oath and get away with it. For unequal justice under the law. Thankfully, however, there’s a counterbalance to this negative outburst — because you are flat-out prejudiced on another level. On a case by case basis, you have respect, tolerance, esteem, admiration, fondness and love for all matter and manner of things. A few examples: You worship the principle of individual sovereignty. You dig classical music — love the South Carolina Low Country — venerate the English language — have a deep prejudice for America’s founding ethos and the patriots who protect it — you’re nuts about dark chocolate — idolize the unappreciated blue collar working stiff whose strength and skill built a nation — and exalt Creation in its unbounded majesty, beauty, mystery and power — God’s gift. Consider a reality — prejudice has two faces — both essential to a discriminating life. Beware of tyrants who want to intimidate and rob you of your inner self. You have rights under the law to have and hold any opinion — any prejudice. Any. Prejudice. There’s a word for it. Liberty.
