It is important that it be clarified, what is meant by a blank slate. It is the erroneous idea that people are born as blank slates. Therefore the solution provided, is controlling the population, via public schooling and through the media.Exposing this blank slate deception, is critical in understanding, how the world has become so absurd.
Apparently people are born as empty vessels, and it necessitates that society fills the vessels, with whatever is popular..Most woke ideology stem from this understanding, is what leads to people attending to attempt to legislate morality or convict those who don't accept their norms.This idea is dangerous because it ignores reality. This is the tyranny of the majority, but truth is truth even in the majority of one.
The idea necessitates the elimination or suppression of speech. Due to the fact that any speech if misinterpreted,is capable of making another person uncomfortable. According to these form of reasoning,the public is to blindly accept whatever the so called experts and authorities narratives about everything.
I am not against society becoming better, but we must stick to our principles nonetheless. People masquerade sinful and debauchiaries, justifying that the reason for their erroneous behavior, it's because they were raised under a toxic environment.
Instead of taking accountability for their anger, you blame your parents for being around you, as an example. Claiming you do the despicable things you do because you were raised that way. Yes, this has an element of truth to an extent, yes we are affected by our environment but we can also affect the environment.
To say that all human behavior is merely a product of social construction, is rather fallacious. The irony is that the idea of a social construction itself erroneous, and is bound to fade into obscurity. People employ blank slate reasoning to justify indoctrinating children to their agendas.
To the point people are literally ignoring biology. Today in public discourse, we are incapable of having a civil discussion of what's the difference between, a boy and what's a girl. The simplest backed scientific fact is that a female, is one who has the organs that allow them to give birth.
However people have denied the biology behind gender among under things. The government is stepping is overreaching unconstitutionally, into our capacity to speak freely. You can get arrested or face some consequences for not using the right pronouns.
Unfortunately this idea amalgamates into every facet of our society. Especially in regards to the difference in equality of property. Since every one is merely a product of social construction, it bares to this reasoning, that merely changing the social circumstances would change the individuals' economic predicaments.
It is primarily a mechanism of denying accountability. People blame their society for their lack of success; whereas many haven't endevored to learn new skills, get better education or worked enough to raise their own company.
So they would rather blame their predicament on their choices but on society. For example, a feminist woman may be angry that she has not had a raise in her job and blame it on the patriarchy; whereas it would just require a change of attitude.
It goes further, some would even argue that the women are discriminately being compensated less, for the same tasks. In fact in restaurants female sevors make more for the same tasks, yet we fervently and demand equality.
I wonder if there would be as much fervor, if they wanted equality in people in prison, homelessness or committing suicide, which is mostly men. Not everything is a social construction, different genders are more likely to pick different professions and be better at different jobs.
It doesn't mean one gender is superior to the other, but that, they are better at different things. Denying that is denying basic biology, thus the influx of men dominating women's sports. The irony is that, those advocating from that are eliminating top women competitors from having a shot.
This is accommodated by the blank slate idea that people are born like a blank page and society has the right to write whatever on their minds, and we can alter even biology just by changing society. True insanity. Society is not just what determines who we are, we have biology and instincts but most importantly free will and that comes with accountability.
This has led to many abandoning their core principles, their institutions and their traditions.Some roles are not because of oppression.The man providing and the women taking care of kids is not oppression. I understand the society has changed. It is critical to elaborate that our physiology affects our psychology.
All of this is a product of the blank state idea that we are simply a product of our environment. Therefore government should not enforce social norms, those should be a consequence of voluntary exchange that best facilitates the functioning of a society. Not arbitrarily, enforcing and pandering to whatever the current popular mob demands. Human nature is real, not just a social construction.
