You have to be small minded to be Utopian, and not understand what the American concept and dynamic of freedom is.
These small minded people are very similar to the general populus of Germany in 1938. That scares me , truly. They are fascist fodder, ready to be lock stepped and cowed into a puling mass of people who do what they are told without a fight. All talk, and no action. They are unwilling to fight for the feeedom which they exercise now, because they do not understand, or are not capable of understanding freedom, or understanding what it has taken, and will take, to preserve it.
The publishing industry is very reluctant to publish anything that might get them accused of anti-Muslim bigotry, yet they'll crank out the ten thousandth anti-Christian screed at the drop of a hat. (I'm an atheist so I don't have a bone to pick.) That this country is rooted in Christian principles is an embarassment to these people, yet, comically, the Islamic "values" that should be abhorrent to them are untouchable.
And these are the industries that people rely on to tell them what's going on in the WOT.
