convince all the faggots of the world that reason and objective truth don't exist.

This is so true, anon.

One of the greatest crimes ever committed against humanity.

It is antithetical to everything taught by Jesus Christ, Socrates, Aristotle, and every other hero of classical Western Culture.

There is only ONE truth.

The idea that truth is relative is EVIL. ("Your truth is not my truth....")

This concept is used to justify evil behavior. (pedophilia, trafficking, genocide, etc.)

Trump's EO yesterday mandating classical architecture for all federal buildings cannot be understated. The influence Kant's philosophy had over the arts and architecture is what has directly led to the downfall of the West over the past 100 years.

Kant's idea must be defeated. It is the root of all of this evil.

What idea of Kant's? Kant wasn't a relativist.

Yeah I'm confused by this as well. Kant adhered to the notion that immorality is logically inconsistent. Kant was a relativist only in that he believed that there can be two disagreeing principles that aren't necessarily evil.

Moral relativism as a philosophical tradition became popular in the late 1800s and took off in the 1920s and 1950s-60s.
