In Germany and the Soviet Union, the abstract and imaginary group roles of oppressor and victim were given a frightful reality by ideologues. Race and class categories became the basis for discrimination and new legal systems that favored victims' groups with preferences. On American campuses, multicultural ideology has revived the concepts of race and class oppression, and added new ones based on gender and sexual orientation. Men oppress women, and heterosexuals oppress homosexuals. According to multiculturalists, our culture and values reflect nothing but the arbitrary domination of society by white heterosexual males.
Tyrannical states attack the family.
Both the Nazis and Communists are infamous for state intrusions in family affairs. In the United States, similar bureaucratic and political intrusions come from family courts. Howard University professor Stephen Baskerville is the leading authority on these courts. The only parallels are the ideological-bureaucratic dictatorships of the last century. Family courts claim immunity from the Constitution and from scrutiny by federal courts.
