Disturbing, But True

-
What happens when a society becomes too afraid to discuss the very things that are destroying it? I think we are seeing the answer world-wide today. Rampant political correctness has led to welfare states, ingrained poverty, and degraded social values.

This is everywhere. Europe is the great experiment in multi-culturalism and socialism... and we all see how that played out. Cities like New Orleans have been controlled by liberal policies for decades and decades... and are in dire straights because of it.

We know all of this... and yet, we are gagged from discussing it seriously in public, lest we be branded "racist" or "heartless, rich Republican" or some such. This very good article from the American Thinker discusses the issue at length.

[[ If conservatives are so powerful, why is it that liberals still retain the power to shame them when they break sacred liberal taboos on race, on sex, and even economic policy? Weren’t all taboos supposed to have been swept away as primitive superstitions about five minutes after the publication of Freud’s Totem and Taboo? ]]

The Power Of Liberal Taboos

It is worth reading the whole thing.
