The Curse of Political Correctness
It's a dictatorship concealed in fake democracy.In those days I observed in Facebook
how it gradually appeared
that no one of my friends
among the most intelligent
remained for long but suddenly just disappeared
without a trace and with no explanation.
If they ever reappeared it was under a new name
and with caution – they had been expelled
for nothing usually, and were afraid
to show their true identity on Facebook,
as if a disabling and a lock-out was a brand for life
destroying their career and entire life;
and those who thus were locked away and exiled
always were the best ones with the freest minds,
while all the dull ones, nincompoops and ordinary pettifoggers
posting only nonsense of no harm and no intelligence
were left alone to gossip pettily and randomly at large.
Thus those who have something to say are sorted out
while nothing but political correctness is allowed
to fill the world with stupid boring sickly nonsense vomit.
Any extremism compared with that would be preferred
as something fresher and more healthy
than the world disease of unendurable political correctness,
which if anything is leading all the world down to perdition
by its ignorance, stupidity and failure to see things as they are.
