QAnon is fringe. Social Justice is mainstream progressivism. There is no QAnon equivalent to diversity and inclusion policy/training in industry or academia. It is not socially acceptable to discuss QAnon except critically. There is no comparison here, this is the thrust of the social justice movement, and even if one accepts that a minority of progressives believe in this sort of extremism, the unfortunate fact is that it is being forced into society from the top down, with training, quotas, "mental health," and the like.
- SkipperCat 6y agoA majority of social justice is mainstream progressivism. $15/hr min wage, higher taxes on the 1%, etc. But there is a subset of the left which has gone nuts. This article is a prefect example of it. And the fringe left doesn't have to mirror QAnon, but if they're both espousing their own "truths" without the scrutiny of facts, then they're both wrong. Totally agree with you on your statement "There is no QAnon equivalent to diversity and inclusion policy/training in industry". The private sector is a lot more grounded than academia. Mostly for the better, sometimes for the worse.
