• A couple,

    1. That religion has no use in society. Even if its not true.
    2. That the right to not be offended is more important than the right to govern ones own speech.
    3. That success is primarily a result of birth and not competence. (Within reason of course)
    4. That you can change the world without first cleaning your own room

      1. I don’t think anyone really says that. Most people people in the mainstream would say that religion has a place in many people’s personal lives, just not in legislation.

      2. Saying that people should face consequences for harmful things they say is not the same as opposing free speech.

      3. The mainstream still thinks that society is a meritocracy, it’s only leftists who’d say that success is primarily based on luck (with birth being a major element of that, because it determines your place on a lot of privilege scales such as economic, racial, gender, and many more)

      4. You literally can change the world without cleaning your room. Do you think they hold bedroom inspections for everyone before they’re given power? “Hold on, Mr. Putin, you can’t declare war on Ukraine: your bedroom isn’t tidy enough.”
