One of the most powerful tools of the Communists was denunciation. Survivors describe the process as “terrifying”. Imagine: mobs of your neighbours, co-workers, even friends and family, screaming abuse, spitting on you, beating you. Many were killed by the unhinged mobs. Whole populations lived in terror of denunciation: in communist East Germany, it’s estimated that 1 in 6 people was a state informer.
Denunciation reached a frenzied peak in the Chinese Cultural Revolution, led by students. These “Red Guards” turned on their teachers, professors, and parents — this, remember, in a culture where respect for one’s elders was formerly deeply entrenched for thousands of years.
The West now finds itself in the grip of a Marxist-inspired Cultural Revolution. Like the Red Guards, they’ve already smashed statues and burned books. The denunciations are also well and truly underway.
A girl who argued that biological sex is real after a talk about transphobia felt forced to leave her school after pupils hounded her for challenging the views of a visiting speaker.
She was treated like a heretic for questioning a politician’s assertions about sex, a teacher at the school said. The female member of the House of Lords visited the private girls’ school, a Stonewall diversity champion, to talk about transphobia in parliament.
“Diversity” in Marxist Newspeak really means uniformity. No dissenting opinions allowed, on pain of denunciation.
The pair parted amicably, the girl said. But on returning to the sixth form she was surrounded by up to 60 girls who shouted, screamed, swore and spat at her. She escaped and said she collapsed, unable to breathe properly.
If she expected the school to stand up to such horrific bullying, she failed to reckon with the gutlessness of modern teachers.
Teachers were initially supportive but withdrew their backing after the other sixth formers accused the girl of transphobia. The teenager returned to school a few times but was told she would have to work in the library if she said anything provocative in lessons, and faced bullying and accusations of transphobia from pupils throughout the school. She also spent breaktimes and lunchtimes in the library. The girl left in December and is studying at home.
A teacher at the school said: “We know how these views are being silenced in the adult world through high-profile legal cases and the bullying and defamation of celebrities such as JK Rowling. This is also happening in schools.”
Because cowards in the school hierarchy allow it to.
It was the similarity of transgender ideology to religious fundamentalism “alerted me to the danger of what has been going on in our schools over the last few years”, the teacher added.
He said a group of sixth-formers arrived in an “animated state” after the speaker’s visit, with a “significant group of girls verbally ‘laying into’ one particular 18-year-old who had had the audacity to question the position”.
The teacher added: “It was probably somewhat naive of her not to realise that this is indeed ‘an ideology’ and one with which you’re simply not allowed to disagree.” The 18-year-old girl ended up denounced by other pupils in the school. The teacher said: “It is quite chilling to witness first hand how this ideology operates and grows.”
So cowardly are the schools, in fact, that they grovel to the unhinged bullies.
Staff were initially supportive but, after complaints from other sixth formers, ended up apologising for not maintaining a “safe space” in the sixth form.

So, that’s the Clown World we live in: Nonces are given an open invitation to schools, while normal people are forced into hiding.
Honk-honk.
