I’M SURE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE “LITERALLY SHAKING” AND “CAN’T EVEN” OVER THIS: ‘Not all cultures are created equal’ says Penn Law professor in op-ed.

Returning to the American cultural values of the 1950s — thrift, gratitude, temperance, continence, among others — would “significantly reduce society’s pathologies,” says Penn Law School professor Amy Wax in an op-ed published Thursday on Philly.com and co-written with Larry Alexander of the University of San Diego School of Law.

Wax’s piece, entitled “Paying the price for breakdown of the country’s bourgeois culture,” condemns “the single-parent, anti-social habits, prevalent among some working-class whites,” “the anti-’acting white’ rap culture of inner-city blacks” and the “anti-assimilation ideas gaining ground among some Hispanic immigrants” as “not suited for a First World, 21st-century environment.”

In an interview with The Daily Pennsylvanian on Thursday, Wax said Anglo-Protestant cultural norms are superior.

Next she’ll suggest that cultures that are doing worse would do well to emulate those norms. Crimethink!
