And the appeasers say that stuff like that will all just "go away" if we compromise with the PC-nazis.
This only affirms our suspicions. The Race Hustler is never satisfied nor will he ever be satisfied. He whines for compromise, but the second he discovers that he has achieved it, like a greedy child in the cookie jar, he reaches for in for more. Race hustling to these people is their greed, their idol, and their religion. Its ends are insatiable and always come to encompass more once a previous demand is agreed upon. There are some who operate under the mistaken belief that if we negotiate with the Race Hustlers, they will cease their agitation. In reality, we have no better chance of achieving such an end by these means as one can expect a rabid dog to regain its former self upon being offered a chew toy. Extend that toy with a hand in friendship and be bitten in return - that is how the Race Hustlers respond to compromise.
And a great big ditto to that.
Anyone who doesn't realize this has nothing to do with a flag or the Confederacy is just not thinking. This is all about raising funds and raising ---Cain or is it Cane? And anyone, anyone with to cells sparking together who supports this kind of behavior - shame on you.
Well I just heard it announced last night on Fox News that Georgia's State Government just adopted a new flag that will appease the NAALCP. So much for a referendum, and so much for a "government of the People". Sounds to me like the politicians in Georgia have become abusive of their authority, and the people could rightfully recall them. This is not a instance of government acting in the people's best interests, but rather a government caving in to a special interest group at the expense of their constituents.
I know this is exactly opposite what the Founders envisioned for the United States. The NAALCP has started us down the slippery slope of "Political Correctness" towards State sponsored speech and thought. Damn Bill Clinton for ever bringing this new tyranny into the public's consciousness. It does nothing but pander to the uneducated losers at the expense of the liberty of educated individuals.
For some thought provocative truth about PC, I've submitted this excerpt from an article by Diane Alden written in 2000 -
'PC is the new American religion, and it is more fanatical than any fundamentalist religion ever thought of being. It is more dangerous than any fundamentalist religion because it now has control of the court system, the trial lawyers, the media, and one of the major parties.
PC-ism is dangerous because it demands equal conditions and, more importantly, equal outcomes. It does so by taking money and tribute from one group and handing it to the government or to some aggrieved PC entity. When an individual rises to prominence or wealth, the PC philosophy says it is because of some unfair condition in society.
PC has succeeded for the most part because it got control of the language, revised history, created division, destroyed the Bill of Rights, made traditional, or Christian, Western culture and values the repository of all evils.
The soldiers of modern PC have successfully put the establishment of Western tradition on the defensive. Meanwhile, they have effectively killed free speech at the universities, in discussion, in the mainstream media, and among various groups of Americans, and stunted the growth of creativity and art, as well as political discussion. The result is the balkanization of America and the growing radicalization of various groups of Americans fed up with the fact that their free speech and their belief in constitutional government and the Bill of Rights are being destroyed.
PC is more dangerous than communism because it has taken the moral high ground through manipulation of the facts and denial of the truth. Grounded in egalitarianism, PC is of the same milieu as that of the French Revolution. Maximilien Robespierre, the French lawyer and chief butcher of that revolution, was probably the first adherent of PC.
The bloody terror of that time was not nearly as cruel and bloody toward the rich and the noble in Paris as it was toward the people in the countryside of France. The blood of ordinary French people who dared speak against the "terror" ran freely in the streets of every province and town in France; ordinary people were massacred by the thousands. To the first soldiers of PC, "liberty and fraternity" were concepts applied to citizens who went along with its excesses and supported completely the leaders of the massive bloodletting. Even those who followed the new regime in sheep-like fashion were not spared. They died like everyone else, rich or poor, screaming their allegiance to the Revolution and to the leadership of the Revolution.
Whether it is the PC mind-set of today or that of the French Revolution, free speech is only free when it follows PC notions of what is or is not allowed, and even then you might not be safe.
Today PC culture and philosophy are doing a much better job of creating the New Age totalitarian state than communism or the French Revolution were able to do. It is succeeding because it uses the language and the innate sense of decency of most Americans and of the Western tradition, which they have absorbed through their culture, religion, and the tenets contained in the Founding documents.
The sensible and fair American understands that the country has never been perfect. Most Americans know that various groups of people have been abused and treated unfairly, and America has turned itself inside out trying to address those injustices and grievances. However, the truth is that addressing those grievances is not what PC is about. PC is about destruction and tyranny. The leaders and followers of PC want complete and total capitulation. They want Western culture and tradition to go away.Yet none of them are quite sure what will replace it except some ephemeral PC platitudes.
This phantom utopian state considers all humankind to be perfectible if only there are enough rules, regulations and readjustment to new notions of right and wrong. The problem arises when the standard utopia varies from person to person, just as it did during the French and Russian revolutions. The American Founders gave us incredible concepts, in the basic documents of the Republic, that allow for anyone to believe what he will and for that belief to be allowed free expression. In the world of PC, communism, and fascism, the only "freedom" left is the decision to submit to the tyrannical state or die.
The great jurist Robert Bork defined what is happening in America very well: " our culture is now politicized our politics [are] culturized the idea that everything is ultimately political has taken hold. [I]t is [about] the oppression of women, Western imperialism, colonialism, and racism. Political correctness now assaults one's opponent as not merely wrong but morally evil."
PC is rampant even in the high culture of America. The Smithsonian Institution is not immune. At an exhibit in the 1990s that featured the American Frontier from 1820-1920, the Smithsonian's historians mutilated historical interpretation so badly that historian and former librarian of Congress Daniel J. Boorstin wrote: "A perverse, historically inaccurate, destructive exhibit. No credit to the Smithsonian."
Political correctness is neither objective nor inclusive nor fair. It condemns the brilliant and too often lauds the mediocre, inane and barbaric. Political correctness, in its demonization and vilification of traditional Western culture and philosophy, creates the eventual conditions for its own demise. Yet it does not recognize this as it glorifies non-Western cultures and conditions while totally ignoring their barbarisms.
The problem with PC is that what it seeks to replace Western traditional or classic culture with will not be egalitarian, fair or inclusive. What will fill the vacuum is a chaotic blend of banality, half-truths and political philosophy, based on primitive notions of good and evil, fair and unfair, justice and truth.
PC is more tribal and separatist than anything currently going on in the Aryan Nations, militia groups, skinhead cults and odd but still free associations of people in the United States and the world today. It will continue to do vast harm to the United States, which has been by far the most fair and inclusive civilization in the history of humankind.
If PC achieves final victory, American social, intellectual, spiritual and political life will become more tyrannical and diabolical than any yet invented by the dark side of human nature.'
And this is what we are starting to see more and more of with special interest groups. Apparently American politicians have forgotten what my tag line states is the ultimate truth ... "The People are the Supreme Authority."
