→Immanent critique and political correctness
==Immanent critique and political correctness==
==Immanent critique and political correctness==
Through the use of [[immanent critique]], the more intellectual far leftists target opponents. Immanent critique is defined as {{quotebox|" a method of discussing culture which aims to locate contradictions in society's rules and systems....The purpose ....is the detection of societal contradictions which suggest possibilities for emancipatory social change.... It highlights the gaps between what something stands for and what is being done in actual terms. Immanent critique tries to find contradictions and indirectly provide alternatives, without constructing an entirely new theory."}} From this is born the ostracism of [[political correctness]].

Nevermind that purveyors of these idea-less theories themselves are caught up in the same [[hypocrisy]], hold the same [[bigot]]ed views and are guilty of the same actions as the people they target. It is "us versus them," the enlightened few against the powers that be and the unwashed masses, who are all bigots and hypocrites until they bow before their new revolutionary masters.
