Rod Dreher: Social Justice is ‘utopian political cult’ & ‘fanatical religion’

The National Conservatism Conference held Feb. 4 in Rome will be online soon. Yoram Hazony promised the speeches will be available and judging from the few excerpts making their way out of the conference—these will be important viewing for those who defend Western Civilization. One important speech was Rod Dreher’s. He’s posted the transcript and it is worth noting how perfectly Dreher describes our current situation.

Dreher said, “The all-consuming ideology among us is not racist nationalism or Marxism-Leninism, but rather a globalist, victim-focused identity politics, often called ‘social justice.’ The revolutionary class is not the German volk or the international proletariat, but the ‘marginalized’ and ‘oppressed’ – the Sacred Victim.
