I Couldn't Have.... 

....Said It Better.

Perusing a new to me Blog, My Daily Kona and ran across this musing.....

  Now to make some intemperate thoughts....I heard yesterday that the CDC released the results of a survey that had sampled millions of people and apparently 3% of the American population self identifies as "Gay,Lesbian, Bi-gender, Transgender".  And the rabid gay lobby is beside themselves in fury" How dare they use the same sampling that before was ok by them if it supported their agenda now work against them."  So basically the entire PC movement and outrage that you hear in the media is caused by 3% of the population....Talk about the minority controlling the narrative.  We have 3% of the population that is driving social discourse and the manufactured outrage that spills over into twitter, Facebook, and other social media.  SO basically we have 3% of the population that wanted "tolerance" from everybody else when they got started, now they have control of the narrative, they squelch any dissenting opinions of their beliefs...

I have a phrase on my blog that is from Charlton Heston " Political correctness is tyranny with manners..."Basically they use the innate social goal of everybody being nice and using it to squash any opinions that they don't like and want you to feel bad if you say something intolerant.  So it is like before we had "free Speech" now it is "free Speech" if they agree with it.  And if you have an opinion that is different, you keep it to your self.   That is what the people in communist bloc or places where tyranny is the rule of law people do to stay under the radar to avoid the attention of the state security forces or groups that openly support the agenda of the state. 

Reminds of the Federalist Papers #10 and its discussion about factions.  It was published in Novemebr of 1787.  How prescient.....
