Coincidentally following-up nicely on Lydia Lovric’s column (see below), I caught a related column written by David Limbaugh in which he writes about “the left’s thought gulag”. I’d classify this as a must-read for liberals, meaning they won’t read it—but that won’t stop the rest of us from continuing to expand our horizons as we always do:
It’s time we call political correctness what it is: a liberal code of thought, speech and conduct. Anyone who thinks conservatives are behind any of this lunacy is either uninformed or being dishonest.
[…] The dirty secret—at least it’s a secret to liberals—is that political correctness, emanating as it does from a liberal mindset, is not open-minded, it’s not inviting, and it’s not progressive or enlightened. It is the antithesis of what liberalism claims to be all about.
No, the liberal code is illiberal, it’s close-minded, censorial, tyrannical, oppressive, uncompassionate, intolerant, anti-libertarian, anti-intellectual, anti-academic inquiry, arrogant, proud and unforgiving.
