Islamophobia and other distortions... Forced to live a lie.

Since the advent of what is known as Cultural Marxism, or Political Correctness (1933) the world has gradually shifted to a place of stilted expression, at least for some cultures. 

The Origins of Political Correctness
We call it “Political Correctness.” The name originated as something of a joke, literally in a comic strip, and we tend still to think of it as only half-serious. In fact, it’s deadly serious. It is the great disease of our century, the disease that has left tens of millions of people dead in Europe, in Russia, in China, indeed around the world. It is the disease of ideology.
This post is not about the "incident" the actors or the various factions. It is about rapidly disappearing rights of free speech and media control of opinion.

Yet certain guest cultures seem able to fully express without caution while mine host is rendered speechless?

What made me think about this...  is a recent barbaric incident widely reported in media.

It took place in Woolwich located in the UK. What struck me is the enormous contrast between what one faction can express versus another factions ability to do so in a likewise fashion. 

On the one hand I witness blunt and universal threat aimed at the host nation, its inhabitants, politics, beliefs and its cultural norm. On the other hand I see derision heaped upon those that would protest the threat.

The threats responded to... are not veiled and  include homeland dispossession, extermination even invasion--protest of that seems reasonable as does alarm.

A word I noticed frequently in mainstream media reporting of that event is "Islamophobia," the definition of which is far from complimentary.  It is used to both inflame and deprecate. 

Typically:

Woolwich murder: 200 Islamophobic incidents since Lee Rigby's killing

The term Islamophobic is incitement-centric, which for me shows a complete disregard for the true issue and provides a suspicion of propaganda, especially when seriously unflattering images are used to illustrate what a Islamophobic looks like.  This is not responsible journalism. 

A person has a natural right to be "for" something which does not necessarily mean their position is "against" something, but more and more that is how things are spun. If you are for "that" you must be against "this." Nothing is ever that clear cut--nothing. A leader popularized this simplistic two option choice when he said you only have two choices. For dumbed down populations perhaps two choices seems reasonable?

Be it a fear of spider, heights or some other "phobia" such references do not reflect true concern, they reflect a personal foible --the true fear factor lies in inappropriate or reckless behaviors and the harm of them, such fear of promised threatened violence is not phobic it is natural reaction and not a mental "condition.".  

Like all other "threats", there is no need to fear a belief system unless it provides ample reason to. I would hardly classify a self defense response as a "phobia",  self-preservation in ones own backyard is hardly an attitude problem. No threat... no problem.

My point here is not about the ongoing frictions caused by ill-conceived feral transplant mistakes, or expected hidden agendas -- it is about yet another level and form of inequity, that of rightful opportunity for expression which should not be applied selectively. 

I am not passing judgement I am offering clarity to the issues. It is extremely dangerous when freedom of expression is being suppressed, most often it leads to heightened conflict rather than decreased angst.

Freedom of expression allows a broad range of perspective, but only if heard. Innate intelligence, critical thinking, logical thought and discernment feed on information. I trust your judgement, not external force fed thoughts. Thoughts are not the crux anyway...  actions and behaviors are.

The saddest part of cultural Marxist dogma is forced suppression of opinion. 

When I felt compelled to comment on the various  media articles...  I bumped into the direct effect of sealed lips policy...

One reporter of the articles offered this lament...
For reasons I'll let the "Name-Of-Paper" explain, all of the comments to all of the columns and articles posted on the London attack were deleted, and the comment sections then closed.
So, we are down to this... for a little while longer independent blogs may represent the last bastion of freedom of speech... how sad is that?

In conclusion, formally free countries are in the throes of the greatest and direst transformation in its history.

We are steered and brow-beaten into an ideological population, in a country with an official state ideology enforced by the power of the state.

We now have people serving jail sentences for political thoughts, while those that utter death threats roam fee.

Thoughts are one thing, threats are another and doing is the proof of the pudding!



Stay tuned...

Women and children overboard

It's the  Catch-22  of clinical trials: to protect pregnant women and children from the risks of untested drugs....we don't test drugs adequately for them. In the last few decades , we've been more concerned about the harms of research than of inadequately tested treatments for everyone, in fact. But for "vulnerable populations,"  like pregnant women and children, the default was to exclude them. And just in case any women might be, or might become, pregnant, it was often easier just to exclude us all from trials. It got so bad, that by the late 1990s, the FDA realized regulations and more for pregnant women - and women generally - had to change. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) took action too. And so few drugs had enough safety and efficacy information for children that, even in official circles, children were being called "therapeutic orphans."  Action began on that, too. There is still a long way to go. But this month there was a sign that ...

Not a word was spoken (but many were learned)

Video is often used in the EFL classroom for listening comprehension activities, facilitating discussions and, of course, language work. But how can you exploit silent films without any language in them? Since developing learners' linguistic resources should be our primary goal (well, at least the blogger behind the blog thinks so), here are four suggestions on how language (grammar and vocabulary) can be generated from silent clips. Split-viewing Split-viewing is an information gap activity where the class is split into groups with one group facing the screen and the other with their back to the screen. The ones facing the screen than report on what they have seen - this can be done WHILE as well as AFTER they watch. Alternatively, students who are not watching (the ones sitting with their backs to the screen) can be send out of the classroom and come up with a list of the questions to ask the 'watching group'. This works particularly well with action or crime scenes with ...
