By Gil Bailie inBlog

Posted on: Mar 10, 2022

The Polish philosopher Ryszard Legutko points out an irony that can hardly be lost on anyone seriously observing contemporary affairs:
“Once eccentricity became the fashion or the norm, it unleashed a wave of collectivism, not creativity. Throngs of self-proclaimed eccentrics shouting the same slogans against every form of real or imagined ancient régimes have always made a rather depressing spectacle of human conformity.”
