It is time we had an interdisciplinary world. It is time we created a society where all levels of thinking and society can work together – so the individual psychologies can live together in a more integrated society. Interdisciplinary thinking tries to promote environmentalism, capitalism, religion, heroic individualism, and families simultaneously. Beauty, truth, and ethics are united.

Racist Leftists
Despite the fact that nobody could ever give a specific instance of my saying or doing anything that could be interpreted as racist, I am often accused of such by Leftists who argue with me online, but don't actually know me. True, it's a shortcut from thinking and is designed to sidetrack arguments they are clearly losing, but it has occurred to me as well that the people who are so apt to accuse others of racism are much like those homophobes who think everyone is gay and who openly, vociferously condemn homosexuals every chance they get. Methinks they both doth protest too much. Those who go around accusing everyone under the sun of racism are themselves the biggest racist, feel guilty about it and, not wanting to feel guilty, project their feelings onto others, accusing those others of that they themselves are. It's pathetic, really. And such people should be called out on this fact every time they accuse someone who disagrees with them of racism.

Frederick Crews makes a similar point in the chapter "Unconscious Deeps and Empirical Shallows" in his book Follies of the Wise. The argument loses some force, however, without particulars.
One could go even a bit further. Walter Williams back in the 80's argued that the Left's policies could have been designed by the Klan, if the goal was to oppress African-Americans, keep them poor, and destroy them culturally.
The Klan, incidentally, was once known at the military arm of the Democratic Party.
