I don't see how you get around that argument.

Here's how, from the article:

If a truth hurts, since you can't destroy the Truth, you destroy the truth-teller.

I like mayonnaise too; sometimes Dijon mustard. Oh, no, I’m a nerd AND a snob! Interesting article.

It has been my experience that Stereotypes come from somewhere other than the imagination. Stereotypes come from repeated observations. They should put some ice on it.

Robert Putnam: Diversity Is Our Destruction by Patrick J. Buchanan

E Pluribus Unum: Diversity and Community in the Twenty-first Century by Robert Putnam

Robert Putnam is liberal Harvard sociologist who was surprised at the results that he found. He also wrote "Bowling Alone." Although Putnam's paper is long, you'll understand why the title of Buchanan's review is not being provocative for a xenophobic rant.

The truth doesn’t matter. PC will get people killed.

Are the generalizations true?

All generalizations are bad.

;)

[Doomonyou]

It’s a false concept brought to give the powers that be more control.

Divide and conquer.

[enough_idiocy]

the only generalizations that are correct are as follows:

whites are racists
white men (can’t say black or any other) are violent abusers
conservatives are dumb

you can say any of the above and it’s okie dokie.

Stereotypes have a basis in truth, otherwise the steroetype wouldn’t exist. Problem is they are too all-encompassing, and they often are rooted in an obsolete observation, fixed in time.

Poor you, being a nerd and a snob.

Being a victim is FAR better :) /sarc off
