Looks like it’s now official. Thoughtcrime is now illegal in some states and apparently speech is no longer protected by the First Amendment if it’s un-PC.
Scary.
As I read it, it goes like this: If I tell an off color joke in a bar and the dude sitting next to me happens to be a polack, rabbi, relative of Adolph Coors, what have you and is offended – not only have I broken the law but the bar has broken the law by allowing me to say such horrible things inside their place of business. Man, me and my big mouth, I am really going to have to start watching what I say which is, of course, exactly what they want. Soon all thought will be cleansed and all adjectives will be banned and we’ll all be on the same level of existence. Divided into our little sub-groups mind you, we wouldn’t want to sacrifice diversity, but none better than another – unless you’ve got highly pigmented skin.
I have seen the future friends! It’ll be lovely, trust me. Remember, all are equal but some are more equal than others.
