Writing in The Speccie Dot Wordsworth said: ‘The most effective weapon in cultural warfare is to find a form of words that convicts others without the need for evidence or a trial.’ That’s what Critical Race Theory, and now the Australian Human Rights Commission, are attempting to do with ‘unconscious bias’, a phrase that convicts all white people of racism. It’s based on the Freudian fallacy that we are all just the dumb slaves of our sub-conscious (an idea that even the Freudians have given up on now).

It is only conscious bias that matters—only conscious decisions to act on racial bias can possibly matter. Denying that reality enables the Left to ‘weaponise’ the phrase ‘unconscious bias’ to convict (without evidence) ordinary, decent citizens of offences they have not committed.
