The Death of Truth

By michaelswiger

     The Politically Correct movement is guilty of Aggravated Murder.   No, they didn’t rob and kill a convenient store clerk or bash a baby seal over the head with a club.  But their victim was no less real and much more profound; they murdered TRUTH.  

      At first glance it would seem impossible to snuff the life out of an inanimate ideal, but their insidious scheme functioned better than any plot hatched from the mind of Agatha Christie.  They murdered truth by slowly demonizing it.  

     For instance, if the PC movement wanted to destroy the universal truth that 2 + 2 = 4, they would start by saying, “While we all know that 2 + 2 = 4, it is unfair of us to look down upon the ignorant and less fortunates who were born in such a way as not to understand or agree that 2 + 2 = 4.” 

     After a few years of that line of reasoning, they would take the next step by saying, “While we all know that 2 + 2 = 4, we should be TOLERANT of those who disagree based on their personal conviction.” Next they say, “It is INTOLERANT, to believe that everyone should have to accept the premise that 2 + 2 = 4.” 

     Then, “Because is it politically incorrect to say that 2 + 2 = 4, we should institute sensitivity training in our public schools, so that the next generation of students don’t grow up as INTOLERANT as their parents.” Next a law is passed that says, “Anyone who says that 2 + 2 = 4 is a closed-minded bigot guilty of HATE SPEECH.” 

     Finally, “2 + 2 does not equal 4.”
