It seems like the final stage of decadence and degeneracy is being reached in the universities. Woke and political correctness at least could be seen to have a direct political connection to the Left-wing will to power. But now we are seeing the University of Exeter in Devon, England, introducing a course on the history and impact of esotericism, witchcraft, occultism, and magic. Does this conflict with the materialism of neo-Marxism? One can be sure that the sub-text will be how these cultural phenomena directly challenge Western Christian philosophy, and is thus part of the process of decolonisation.
This then actually does fit in with the Left’s cultural deconstruction of the West, only taking a New Age attack, rather than the usual path via cultural relativism. Remember, the means justify the ends for the Left, so if the New Age helps in sinking the West, then New Age it is.
