There is a brand new age that has just arrived. Its been delivered by a new self righteous generation. Old ideas regarding discrimination are being taken to whole new levels. These people can often be heard on our radio stations spouting their blurb, no doubt aided by a Psychology degree or a Media Studies degree ( young people have told me most jobs require them ) Yes, the people Im talking about are mealy mouthed, politically correct spokes ( nearly always women ) people for organisations against discrimination, often sexual or racial. They are very articulate, and highly trained in how to get their message across on the air waves . So whats my problem then ?
Well recently ive got so annoyed ive turned my radio off in a hail of expletives. I have a healthy distrust of certain issue groups, and the way they constantly re justify their existence as we all move with them in changing our out looks, they constantly dilute what is deemed " unacceptable " in their eyes, hence we can never " win ", and they keep themselves on a job. I personally think they sometimes enjoy being offended... but well, thats for another post for another day...
No, what really pissed me off was the new idea that that such spokes people are banding about that our, and I quote " subconscious bias or discrimination " maybe a problem we do not even realise exists. We maybe discriminating or be racist and not even know it !! My god how do we fight that accusation ? It seems we are all doomed by this typically extreme criminalisation of absolutely everyone ? Even if it is true, just how the hell are we meant to fight it ? Maybe by discriminating against every instinct we have and, or cowering before every minority or person we meet of the opposite sex ? Words fail me, they really do. A new level of insanity has been reached. We are all deemed guilty. Well such people can take their media trained views and stickem where the sun dont shine. Period !!
Young people tend to be "liberals" but then change their viewpoints once they are older. I think it is partially a naive, mistaken optimism of youth, along with socialist leanings taught to them in their colleges. Yes, they are rather rampant these days.
