I pointed out a very common problem with parochialism from my observations of how its inherent subjectivism among homosexual militants and their occultist apologists have morally destroyed San Francisco. And you agreed with me. I wasn't talking about "literary style," but about how people who are intoxicated on subjectivist symbolism become impaired in their ability to reason to the point that they become fanatically antagonistic toward reason, and even literally demonize it by arbitrarily associating it with evil forces. Independent thought is a thought crime among both the homosexual militants as well as among the "religious right." The parochialism on both sides of the coin is still part of the same coin. It's part of the collective schizophrenia in which the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing
I'm sure that you might like for the homosexual militants in San Francisco to get rid of their parochialism, but the problem won't go away until the religious right gets rid of its parochialism. Society would be better off without the extremes of both sides telling the public, "Heads, I win, tails you lose."
You write about the "subversion of language," but you fail to demonstrate how this is a detriment to Parochialist theory, or how it somehow >invalidates any point.
