Links are my choice, but do not necessarily reflect my opinion. I often link to articles, sites and blogs with which I disagree. I try to look at all sides, but the fact that I'm human makes it impossible for me to view anything completely objectively. |
03 January, 2002: "I love a good rant!"By Kathy Kinsley Thanks to Glenn Reynolds for pointing me to this fabulous flame by James Lileks on the subjects of peaceniks, PC and multiculturalism. Here's an excerpt: This is where the Peace School lessons take you: In order to respect all viewpoints, no actual viewpoints may be professed, let alone examined. The Peace School wants a place where religion is turned into a sparkle-flecked gruel of good intentions that curdles the moment it comes in contact with reality, where every idea is equally empty, where tolerance becomes abolition, where Good has an infinite number of cheeks to present to mass murderers who had bad childhoods, and no one has the ability to shove the flag in the dirt and say THIS is where I stand without being mocked by those whose cleverness barely conceals their loathing. I'm impressed.
