People are picking sides, radicalising their own position, to show who they support in the culture wars. In this debased game of football, if you don't openly support one side, you are deemed to support the other. Choosing a side helps to make people feel as if their life has meaning, and this is more important than the truth, so the solutions get worse and worse.

Government,corporations and schools are forcing Multiculturalism and Political Correctness on us.,while anyone objecting gets smeared as racist.There is no country that florished in multi-kulti.It was a grievious wrong to bring Africans to Americas and later to open wide for immigration of the Third World to the States. <br />I have never met a liberal that could to any degree,at any ideological point concede that he/she is avoiding facts.Their convictions are like enamel on a fridge: they are baked-in.<br />And one more remark- you are right regarding the artistic merit of most of those Confederate statues. They are sculpted without much inspiration or originality,pretty much like statues of Lenin across Russia.Don't expect that huge statue of Rosa Parks and monument to Crips& Bloods will be artisticly better.fantazoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09612699707665354289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454459186129750328.post-90462207114098080912017-08-22T11:24:45.483-07:002017-08-22T11:24:45.483-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Joelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043741736939094923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454459186129750328.post-60730722666145733652017-08-22T03:15:51.240-07:002017-08-22T03:15:51.240-07:00Great article.

I prefer the term "left". nickledeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06085351177643278402noreply@blogger.com
