Totalitarian political correctness, or cultural Marxism, is the watered-down intellectual base of hedonistic, nihilistic, anarchistic, popular culture. Postmodernism is the more esoteric version of this, claiming that all philosophical and religious truths are relative, other than its own. Although intellectually complicated and very damaging this cultural movement really is almost total crap. Nietzsche seems to have been the inspiration for much of this thinking, although he himself believed in the values of national ethnic culture in his early writings, and the cultural-biological creation of superman in his later writings, which of course is not the politically correct way to interpret his writings.
The science of sociobiology alone demolishes these intellectual pretensions. We are alive with all the drives and passions involved in being alive. There is a biological origin to cultural behavior, including gender differences and ethnic differences, among many other things, with an inborn deterministic drive to survive and reproduce successfully, which cannot legitimately be denied no matter how clever the denials.
