Well, this is depressing stuff - but not surprising - which deepens the despair since sure as shit it will come as a surprise to many a naive soul. The dysfunctional core of political correctness laid bare - if you could have had a serious conversation about the ‘muslim problem’ in Europe 20 or 30 years ago maybe you avoid the current farce - but dare try and have that conversation and you were labeled a racist [how like Obama's America that]. And if you think Europe doesn’t have a muslim problem then you’re just as delusional as those naive souls who convinced themselves that the Arab Spring would usher in a new age of openness and modernity and personal freedom for those laboring under the regressive tyranny of Islamic governance. Political correctness shuts down, through imputation of shame, debate over the truth of a proposition in order to preserve a falsehood one has become dependent on - there’s a quaint Cartesianism to it: I think it therefore it must be regardless of whether or not it actually is.
